 It is with no small degree of con graduation that l find myself today on the border line of sister republic in the most remote portion of our common country. where every glance of the eye and every throb of the heart tells me that you are truly Am erican.
 Though unacquainted with most of you, you hail me in the sweet associa- tion of American citizenship. and am at home with you. But century and third ago today there was given to us nation struggling against grevious oppression, document the like Of which history contains no counterpart It's wise creators with a desire to found an asylum for the oppressed ot all nations as a guide, have builded a structure which will endure until time shall be no more.
 They have founded a government where manhood aud manhood alone, is made not simply condition of citizenship. but when manhood and manhood alone, permits the possessor to have his equal share in the control of the government.
 It is the only government where poverty is on an exact equality with wealth.
 It Is the only nation where the man clothed with the badge of labor stands upon an equality with the wear. CT of broadcloth-
 It is the only country on earth where 1 the occupant of the hut is upon politi- cal equality with the resident of the l mansion.
 All who stand beneath our banner l are free. Ours is the only flag ttlt has Liberty, Fraternity, Equality really written upon it.
 Liberty, Fraternity, Equality, the three srandest words in all the Ian guages of men.
 Liberty-Give to every man the fruits of his labor. the labor of his | hand and his brain. His attainments are oircumscribed only by his capabil, itfes. The rail splitter has been president. The eagle can have fun sweep for his pinions.
 Fraternity-Every man is my broth er
 Equaliy-The rights of all are equal | No race, no color, no nationality, can change the rights of men.
 We are today celebrating the wis dom and courage of the fathers and | the glad shout of a free people. the anthem of great nation reaches ' . h. t,sA w.~h . boundary knows no setting sun. | Americans Best Housed. | We have better homes and more of the conveniences of life than any other people upon the face of the globe. 1 The toilers of the country live bet, ter than did the kings and princes but a few sho.t years ago. Liberty and honest labor are respon- sible TOT It all. | New discoveries, new inventions, new thoughts may leap from the brain Of the world. One may not be able to dream Of victories yet to be won, but we knew that coming down the tide cf the infinite sea of the future, there will never toucn the bank and shoai of time, a richer gift, a Tar r blessing than Liberty for all men. We live today under~a flag for which more blessed blood has been shed than for any other flag caressed by the gentle zephyrs under Heaven s | dome. It was given to the air of the Republic in the Revolutions darkest days. It represents the sufferings of the past, the glories yet to be; and like the seal of the Almighty set hign in the heaven, bow of promise, it is the child of storm and sun.
 It shields and canopies alike tne humblest hut and the loftiest man, sion.
 IL Is the emblem of supreme will Of nadon's power and glory. Be. heath its folds the weakest must be protected. the strongest must obey.
 It means that government derives it's just power from the consent of the governed. that each one is ac countable to and for the government -tthat responsibility goes hand in | nand With liberty.
 It means that there shall be a legal
 remedy for every wrong. It means that all men are equal before the law
 It means that all distinctions based on birth or blood have no place in our laws-that our government shall stand between labor and capital, be
 tween the weak and the strong. be tween the individual and the corpora
 tion. between want and wealth, and gives and guarantees simple justice to each and all.
 Justice is Essential.
 No free government can stand
 founded upon injustice It matters
 not whether the injustice initiates
 fin favor of or against any part of the
 commrnity--it must be founded and
 maintained upon the broad human
 principle of equality-and equal right.
