Roberts delivered the Fourtf-4of. July
address here today. He said: ~
Mr. Chairman. Ladies and Gentles
men: l appreciate the honor you have
done me in asking me TO come to your
beautiful and thriving town 10 speak
such things 10 you as this occasion may
suggest. / think 1t is quite generally
conceded that the old-fashioned Fourth
of July celebration, like many other
old-fashioned things, is growing out of
date. The thirteen guns at sunrise. the
hoisting OF the flag. the early assem-
bling of the people. the parade, in spite
of heat and Dust. rain or mud. repre-
sercatior of the thirteen states by
thirteen young ladies-beautiful all
the assembling of the people in the
grove. the prayer of the chaplain, the
reading of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. with all its serious charges
against King George III intact; and
above ALL the long and serious and
weary speech of the Orator of the
day." All this is passing away. and
we celebrate our nations birthday
usually under less imposing ceremo-
MES; ard to this change. for one. have
been entirely reconciled: so far recon-
ciled. i'm fact. that ] had made somc-
thing like a resolution that never again
would | participate in the old-fash-
Toned methods of celebration; that ]
would no more infiict on my fellow
citizens a Fourth of July speech so
often m'snamed Grafton
But receiving your committees very
fatterine invitation to address the
good people of Spanish Fork, a change
came over the spirit of my thought,
and IL occurred to me that at this par
ticular time the occasion might afford
an p,r-unity for the expression of
people of your town. ard the people of
our entire state. wouA do well to con-
slider al this time. and hence / am here
to venture a few remarks which l hope
will be of so2le interest TO those here
assembled. and without offense TO any.

PENSION FOR MRS. CLEVELAND

Probable That Congress VIII Vote Her
$4,000 mt Next Session.
szt WASHINGTON. June 2S.-A pension
of $4,000 a year will probably be voted
TO Mrs. Cleveland by special act at the
next session Of Congress. Such. an
act would be tns line with the prece-
dent established in 1882, when similar
pensions were voted to Mrs Tyler.
Mrs. Polk and Mrs. Garfield. That
same year Mrs. Lincoln's pension was
raised from $4,000 to $4,000.
Mrs. Garfield continues to receive
her pension. The only other Presi-
dents widow alive is Mrs. Harrison,
and she is not the least in need. Be-
sides this, Mrs. Harrison, the. second
wife OF the President. married him
long after he had left the White House.
Though these pensions have been
granted to the widows Of Presidents
as such. all those who have been pen
stoned heretofore have been the Wild
ows OF men, who have seen military
service. Their widows were entitled
i to pension under the general laws
ana their amendments.
