The Panama Canal Is now assured o.
the earliest posslbls completion. Thil
great projec. means everything to Kan.
sas aad Oklahoma. The nations COM
mercial supremacy on land and on sea Il
fast changing the map Of the world
Completion Of the Panama Canal will
mean to the Mississippi Valley and the
great Southwest higher price for every
pound of our surplus produce and a
limltless market In the Orient. Thus will
follow for Kansas and Oklahoma q
prosperity which will know no bounds.
The first duty Of the American citizen
10 Kansas as throughout the nation, is to
bring up his sons and daughters to be-
iieve In their country, teach them to
revere the Flag, hold their first allegiance
to their home and family name, their
next allegiance to their country In
necessity. | shall hope to have my boy
as ready and anxious upon necessity to
give his young life In the counlry's
cause as today his father would be to give
his life for his son. Their is no greater
glory, we believe my comrades, than to
yield our lives on the battlefield in de-.
Tense OF the nations security and peace.
Covet for y0nr sons no boon more preci-
Gus than this for to give ones life for
our beloved country, we believe, is but to
give ones life for the glory of the AL
mighty, whose chosen nation we are.
Ask for your daughter no greater bless
ing than that she be the sister or mother
OF such sons. SO shall the American
Republic endure forever, u blessing to
the world.
Col. w. A. Harris delivered a stirring
address to the old soldiers this forenoon.
His speech today Ia considered by his
acquaintances who were present as one Of
his greatest efforts from the platform.
He was introduced by Mr.. Sutton Of this
place, who paid an exceedingly high
tribute to the senator. Before the ln-
production, the band played "America,"
following up with "Dixie," and between
"America" and Mr.. Sntton's speech the
audience was worked up to high tension
when it was turned over to Col. Harris,
aud he kept it there during his entire
address. II lie regretted by this paper
that both the speeches of Goyerno. Hoch
aud Elk Senator Harris came at time in
che week when time does not permit
printing at least part of both in this
issue.
Governor Hoch spoke Oh Wednesday
evening to great crowd and was re-
ceiyed with an enthusiasm which showed
that the Governor of Kansas Is very
popular with the old soldiers, and with
che people as whole who are attending
che reunion. His speech was one of the
best ever heard at the Southwestern
Veterans reunions and had the largest
number of attentive listeners. Gov
ernor Hoch's success as a speaker
comes from the fact that he speaks
from the heart as well as the mind.
His words ring true, and they
bring him IN close touch with biz
audience. His tribute to the old
soldiers was genuine. and his message
60 the young men earnest, and was
said In way that it could not have
been said by one who was less sincere.
The old soldiers showed plainly tina,
they enjoyed the Governors talk i'm
mensely, and their enjoyment was
shared by the vast crowd of citizens and
yosnger people present.
