THE POLITICAL SPEECH

The average political speech OF
the present day is fearfully and
wonderfully made. The bulk of the
time of the political orator Is taken
up by glit'erlng description of the
great and goods things the party
with which the orator chances to be
allied has done for the country and
the people generally. They refer to
our prosperity and progress with
pride and great show of patriotism
without pointing out the causes and
special acts of patriotism and wise
acts of far seeing craftsmanship that
nave induced this advancement.
1t would be strange if a young ne
ton planted in large scope of Il e
best territory in the world for nation
building, reasonably well governed,
did not make rapid strides in the
line of nation building and progress.
