made the nation go onward and up
ward. We can not be dragged up, we
have got to push ourselves up. All you
have to do is to compare what other
nations have done with governments
founded as ours. the same type of con-
stitution. the same type of law. which
nevertheless have failed. have produced
chaos because they did not have the
right type of citizen back of the law,
the right type of citizen to work out
the destiny of the nation under and
through the law. OF course we need the
law; we need even more, the honest and
fearless enforcement of the law, enforce
ment in a spirit of absolute fair play
doing justice to each. We need such
laws, such administration of laws. but
most of all we need to keep up that for
the lack of which nothing else can atone
in any people, the average standard of
citizenship. In our life what we need
is not so much genius not so much brill
liancy as the ordinary common place
everyday qualities which man needs in
private life and which he needs just as
much in public life
I'm coming across the continent from
the Atlantic to the Pacific the thing
that has struck me most is that funda-
mentally wherever one goes in this
broad country a good American IS a
good American"
The president also spoke at sisson
and at Montague. At the latter place
he said:
When my trip was made up asked
why it was necessary to give relatively
four times as much time to California
as to anY other state. understand it
now (AppIause.) I only wish it had
been possible to make it eight times as
much instead. I have been greatly i'm
pressed In travelling through these
mountains and meeting the men who
have done so much in numbering. as /
have already met the men of the mines
and ranches. of the commerce and in
dustries of the great cities. This state
is in boundaries and resources greater
than many an old world emptre. and
think what it is to be a citizen of a
union in which a commonwealth like
this is a state"
The president was greeted by 5000
people as his train pulled into Ash
land where he made his first stop
within the confines of Oregon Bands
were playing, cannon were booming and
thousands were cheering as the presi-
dent stepped out upon the rear plat
/ form of his car for Is minute speech
which he introduced by expressing the
! peculiar pleasure he felt at entering the
state of Oregon for the first time. Peo-
/ pie gathered here from all sections OF
Oregon to welcome the president.
