So. Peoria ST., Chicago. 1.-TWO years
ago during political campaign. I
caught cold after being overheated,
which irritated my throat and I was
finally compelled to stop, as 1 could
not speak aloud. In my extremity a
friend advised me to use Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. l took two doses that
afternoon and could not believe my
senses when found the next morning
the inflammation had largely subsidized.
1 took several doses that day, kept
right on talking through the cam

won my seat in the Council. !" This

that they should foresee. Modern life
Is both complex and intense, and the
tremendous changes wrought by the
extra ordinary industrial development
of the last half centure are felt IN
every fibre Of our social and political
being. Never before have men tried
so vast and formidable an experiment
continent under the forms Of a
democratic republic. The conditions
which have told for our marvellous ma
terial wellbeing, which have developed
to a very high degree our energy, self
reliance and individual initiative, have
also brought the care and anxiety in
separable from the accumulation Of
great wealth in industrial centers.
No Reason to Fear the Future.
upon the success Of our experiment
much depends, not only as regards our
own welfare, but as regards the well
fare of mankind. If we fail the cause
Of free selfgovernment throughout the
world will rock to it's foundations and

to ourselves, to the world as 1t is to-
day, and to the generations yet I'M
born. There is mo good reason why
we should fear the future, but there is
every reason why we should face 1t
seriously, neither hiding from our
selves the gravity of the problems be-
fore US, nor fearing to approach these
problems with the unbending, unflinch-
ing purpose to solve them Alright.
"Yet, after all, though the problems
are new, though the tasks set before
us differ from the tasks set before
our fathers who founded and pre-
served this republic the spirit in which
these tasks must be undertaken and
these problems faced, if our duty is
to be well done, remains essentially
unchanged. We know that self-gov-
eminent is difficult.
Left a Splendid Heritage.
"We know that no people needs
such high traits of character as
that people which seeks to gov
ern its affairs Alright through the
men who compose it. But we have
faith that we shall not prove false to
the memories Of the men of the mighty
past. They did their work, they left
us the splendid heritage we now en-
joy. We i'm our turn have an assured
confidence that we shall be able to
leave this heritage unwasted and en-
larged to our children and our chill
dren's children.
''To do so we must show, not merely
in great crises, but in the everyday
affairs Of life, the qualities of prac-
teal intelligence, of courage, of hardi-
hood and endurance, and above all the
power of devotion to lofty ideal,
which made great the men who found
ed this republic in the days Of Wash
ington, which made great the men who
preserved this republic in the days of
Abraham Lincoln"

Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1905-03-08
There Are Problems to- Solve.

But justice and generosity In ma
ton, as In an individual, count most
when shown not by the weak, but by
the strong. While ever careful to re-
frain from wronging others we must
be no less insistent that we are not
wronged ourselves. We wish peace,
but we wish the peace of justice. the
peace of righteousness. We wish 1t
because we think it is right, and not
because we are afraid. No weak ma
ton that acts manfully and justly
should ever have cause to fear us; and
no strong power should ever be able
TO single us out as subject for in
solent aggression.
"Our relations with the other pow
ers of the world are important, but
still more important are our relations
among ourselves. Such growth in
wealth, in population, and in power, as
this nation has seen during the century
and a quarter of its national life Is
inevitably accompanied by like
growth in the problems which are ever
before every nation that rises to great
ness. Power invariably means both
responsibility and danger. Our fore
fathers faced certain perils which we
have outgrown.

After President Roosevelt had ia

vast audience assembled in front Of
the capitol building and delivered his
inaugural address. He said:

earth have more cause to be thankful

LISTENING TO INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
than ours, and this is said reverently,
in no spirit of boastfulness in our own
strength, but with gratitude to the
Giver of Good who has blessed us with
the conditions which have enabled us
TO achieve so large measure of we'll
being and of happeniness. To us as a
people it has been granted to lay the
foundation of our national life in new
continent. We are the heirs of the
ages, and yet we have had to pay few
of the penalties which in old countries
are eXacted by the dead hand of a by
gone civilization. We have not been
obliged to fight for our existence
against any alien race; and yet our life
has called for the vigor and effort with
out which the manlier and harder vir-
tues wither away

Our Own Fault If We Fail.

under such conditions it would be
our own fault If we failed; and the
success which we have had in the past,
the success which we confidently be-
lieve the future will bring, should
cause in us no feeling Of vainglory, but
rather deep and abiding realization
of all which life has offered us: full
acknowledgement of responsibility
which is ours; and a fixed determina-
ton to show that under free govern
ment mighty people can thrive best,
alike as regards the things of the body
and the things of the soul.
Much has been given us, and much
will rightfully be expected from us.
We have duties to others, and duties
TO ourselves: and we can shirk neither.
We have become great nation of the
earth; and we must behave as beseems
a people with such responsibilities.
Toward all other nations, large and
small. our attitude must be one Of
cordial and sincere friendship. We
must show not only In our words, but
in our deeds. that we are earnestly de-
sirous of securing their good will by
acting toward them in a spirit of just
and generous recognition of all their
rights,
