ialc the foundation of the republic"
EM-Postmaster General Smith re-
sponded 10 THE Louisiana Purchase"
Mr.. Smith said in part:
The purchase of the Louisiana terri
tory was by common consent the SUI
preme act of Thomas Jefferson's adj
ministration as President
The honor which belongs toJefferson
is greater than that of simply having
been the President under whom the
purchase was made. He was the IA
tber of the vital policy which brought
that splendid elimination The cru
clal necessity which led up to the
Louisiana acquisition was the free nav
lgation of the Mississippi. The great
father of waters was the western
boundary and the frontier territory
which rested on its hitherto shore de-
manded an unvexed outlet to the sea.
Jefferson was the first of our states
men to measure the importance OF uns
trammel1ed communication from the
Ohio to the gulf. 1t has often been
urged that in this great acquisition--the
most important act in all our history
between the adoption of the constitu-
ton and the Civil war-Jefferson was
inconsistent with his principles and
professions. He was the leader of the
strict constructionists, and this act was
outside of the letter of the constitu-
ton. But that charge of Inconsistency
could be made against every great par
~ and almost every conspicuous states
man in our history. jefferson did not
violate the constitution. Whatever may
have been said at the time we all
know it now. But in a great public
emergency he departed from his gener-
al theory of Interpretation and in doing
it he did transcendant act of states
manship and achieved an incalculable
for the republic"
Mr. Bryan, who was the last speaker
on the program, addressed himself to-
The Statute for Religious Freedom
He concluded as follows:
TO Jefferson the doctrine of free
speech and freedom of opinion applied
to everything because he rightly un-
derstond that no censorship of opinion
could be permitted that would not be
more dangerous to truth than to error.
for those who are conscious OF the
righteousness of their cause are not so
apt to invoke force in defence OF their
opinion as thcsa who are conscious OF
error and VINO, recognizing their in
ability to defend their views by rea-
son. fall back upon coercion.
Jefferson was the greatest states
man known to history. He believed In
the rights of the PEOPLE, and had
heart large enough to take in all hu-
man kind. He hated tyranny. whether
it manifested itself in religious or secu-
lar affairs, and applied his doctrines to
all questions
Prior to the banquet the board of
governors met and practically decided
that the proposed memorial to Jeffer-
son to be erected i'm this city shall take
the form of building.

time for the murder of William Goe-
bel, today, filed written motion de-

New York. April 13.-Jacob H. Schiff
of the banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb &
Co.. member of the Hartman syndicate
and director of the Northern Securi-
ties Company, the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad Co., and the Union Pacific
Railroad Co. in an interview in the
Evening Post, today. on the; Northern
Securities decision, said: The result
of the decision. if it be confirmed upon
appeal, must necessarily be far reach
ing. The decision practically estab-
fishes this: That anything done which
shall put it in the power of any COM
pany to restrain industry and trade, is
illegal, even if the very reverse of such
restraint is intended, as has no doubt
been the bona fide purpose of the in
corporators of the Northern Securities
Company. Thus as logical conse-
qucnce the power the Pennsylvania
possesses to influence Baltimore & Ohio
and other corporation arrangements all
the power the New York Central pos
sesses to direct the Lake Shore, Michi-
gan Central and the Nickel Plate Com
lsauleS management, or the New York
New Haven & Hartford's influence over
the New England road, even if such
power of intluence-as actually exercised
because beneficial to the public, is lille
gal. This is the danger in the situa- |
ton which has now been created. Not |
tat l believe that the government will |
at present go any further; but as it is
almost anyone for the purpose of black
mail or sinister purposes, has it hence
forth in his power to open fire and har- !
raSs most of the large railroads and |
industrial corporations"
