NORRIS BROWN TALKS AT MINDEN
He Says the Cry of the People IL for
Advancement.

He Says the Cry of the People IL for
Advancement.
MINDEN, Neb., July 4-(Special.)-Sena-
tor Norris Browns Fourth OF July speech
here was an appeal for the awakening OF
Individuals to a sense Of action for the
good of all In such current problems as
postal banks. government regulation, q
judicial subject TO law apd other questions
before the people for settlement. His
speech was in part as follows:
The republic has successfully sustained
its fight for existence. The fathers built
grew until 1851, when the Grand Nrmy of
the Republic made the nation free as we'll
as independent.
The struggle first against a foreign foe
for Independence and later against a do
nestle foe for the freedom OF men resulted
in victories everlastingly dear to the adj
yancing civilization of a great world. To-
day, as we stand here in review OF the
nations march of a century and a quarter
toward higher ideals and better things,
what a blessed opportunity is given Us to
plan for the future advance and glory of
our country and its institutions.
In the economy OF creation II is not the
privilege of men or nations to stand stu.
The law Of nature Is action. There will be
no stiffness upon the face OF the earth until
the end OF all things comes. The world
moves. There Is, there must be movement
everywhere, OF everything In one direction
or the other as long as life lasts. The
question of this celebration day is, What
about our country?" 1t cannot stand still.
Shall it press forward or go backward?
In answer the cry Of advance comes from
every farm and city, county and state,
from everywhere. The answer IS unani-
nous and strong. We are all agreed on
the direction There Is no discordant note
in the glad chorus of forward march. "
But, my friends, II takes something more
than an agreement to make the program
successful. An agreement to do something
avails naught, unless the thing is done,
and this brings us to the lesson Of the day
a lesson so easily and so often forgotten
a lesson personal TO you and to- me. This
is the lesson: You and | have no right.
moral or legal, TO avoid our individual re-
sponsibilities as citizens, This Is our coun-
try. Its policies are our policies. Its bur-
dens are our burdens. Its civilization IL
our civilization. 1t stands for what we
stand for. II goes in the direction that we
drive it. It has no destiny except as with
Gods help we make It. Then what right
has any man to avoid his share of respon,
sibility for what his country Is? The man
is a coward who does II. l am not talking
party politics. l am talking the nations
politics. II is a question OF nation-W wide
import, whether this country's welfare shall
be In the hands OF all its citizns or a part
OF its citizens. The government belongs 10
all the people and all the people should
run It. No man can Justify his indifference
to his civic rights and obligations.

show for it all than a senseless and
unreasonable panic brought about in
a year of big crops and abundant ma
terial prosperity; one hundred nous

To this the State might have add
ed: "A situation full of peril with no
better remedy to offer than no-cent
dollars of the asset currency brand;
a railway merger declared illegal in
the courts but allowed to continue
under another lame; a trust breeding
tariff that the administration dare not
touch for fear of being deprived OF
a fund to finance its campaign; a big
stick policy that has had as results
only the organization of Ananias

citizens ald the scolding of trained
naval officials"

A MUTUAL ~cPLetr~

lie Duty of the Railroads to the
People and the Duty of the People
to the Railroads was the topic dis
cussed at the recent Boosters ban
quet by Avery Turner, president and
general manager of the Pecos Valley
Railroad.
After a little pleasantly and remi1-
~iscences of his association with the
early history of New Mexico, Mr..
Turner ook up his subject with the
declaration that it is h duty of the
railroads to build and equip their
lines in accordance with the needs
of the people, and as the demands
of traffic grow to rebuild and improve
as rapidly as the country develops.
The railroads are themselves great
factors, perhaps the most important
factors of all in III development of
a new countryside why the boom
that invariably follows the building
of the first railroad, and why the
lions as the Roswell Commercial
Club to secure still more railroads.
The Santa Fe company saw two
or three years ago the urgent need
of improvement all over its system
in order to properly accommodate
the public and to care for h bust
ness. The interests of the Santa Fe
do not lie only in the Pecos Valley.
The company has interests in Texas,
Oklahoma, Kansas, Arizona, Califor-
mia and other states as we'll as in
New Mexico. The road has recently
been rebuilt and is now being rebuilt
