JOHNSON At SHILOH
MINNESOTA EXECUTIVE MAKES
NOTABLE ADDRESS.
OUESTioNoFSTA RIGHTS
Does Not Approve OF commonweslths
Being Made subservient to In.
fericr Federal courts-Would
Uphold Constitution.

Gov John A Johnson Of Minnesota
delivered at the dedication of the Min
nesota monument on Shiloh battle
field. April 10, an address that will
rank as one OF the ablest public de
liverances OF recent times. Spoken
on a battlefield that may be taken as
the symbol Of the great war for the
union, the governor took occasion tc
tell of the peril that threatens our fed
eral form of government. This peril
was emphasized by the recent deci
sion of the supreme court In the rail
way cases going up from Minnesota
and North Carolina, which practi
cally makes the state governments
subservient TO the inferior federal
courts. The significance of these de
cisions is widely understood, and they
have given rise to general discus
sion of the question of the rights OF
the states. and Gov. Johnson's speech
will rank as an important contribu
ton to that discussion. The dedica
tory address in part follows:
Representing the people of the com
monwealth of Minnesota, we are as
sembled on one of the historic battle
fields Of the civil war to pay our trib
ute of respect and affection to the
memory of the sons of Minnesota
who here yielded up their lives that
this might continue to be a united ma
ton. Their sacrifice was not for per
sonal gain, but was in response tc
duty, and contribution to the civ
ilization of the age, and for the pur
pose of perpetuating the institution ol
human liberty.
appreciate that nothing which
can say will add to or detract from
the glory of their achievement, which
in itself is an enduring monument tc
the patriotism and heroism of the
American soldier. Their sacrifice
however, was not different from that
which has been made throughout all
of the ages by those lovers of liberty
who bclic?c in q government which
might give to all the people the right
to life, liberty and property. The
love of liberty was not born in this
country of ours; II was Graded along
the Danube and about the shores OF
the Baltic, even when Rome had
reached the limit of her imperial
grandeur. Increasing in intensity
with the passing of the centuries, II
found its highest expression in the
older countries in the great English
charter of civil rights, which forever
guaranteed to the people of that land
immunity from the despotism of those
who claimed to rule by virtue of Di.
vine right.
One hundred and thirty.two years
ago the great contest of humanity was
transferred from the old world to tho
new, and here, because OF the isola'
tion of this country, because OF the
high character of the man who es'
poused the cause of liberty, and be-
cause of the signal victory achieved
by them in that struggle an opportu'
nifty was afforded TO crystalline into
written law the aspirations of the pa
triots of all the ages. The men who

For weeks before she slipped away

a prisoner in her room under the close

Miss Pierce was debutante just out
of boarding school when she met
James A. Deering and fell deeply in
love. Society looked on and approved
OF the infatuation, for absolutely no
objection could be raised TO the young
man In view of his wealth, family and
clean manner of life. But when news
OF the romance reached the grim ola
millionaire in st. Louis he flung him

the happy lovers like a thunderclap.
With words that were short he for

engagement. Miss Violet's elder sister,
Mrs. Eben Richards. was ordered by
her father to come down from Tuxedo
and keep close watch that the baby of
the family saw nothing of her Jimmy.
Young Deering was ordered never to
set his foot across the threshold of the
Pierce mansion. But that was not all.

cause of the delay. The butler COM

TO the phone the girl slipped out.
The escape had been planned. Jim
