b0m0LQiDg mas Only just begun which
you men will have great part IN car
rying forward; because, while we haze
gone headlong in the progress of this
country, and our very prosperity has
betrayed us into doing some things,
into taking some paths which we
ought not to have taken, there Is
much to reconstruct, and the recon
struction must be undertaken so just
ly, SO confidently, by slow process OF
common counsel, that q generation
must work out what result must be
achieved; and that az you men come
on, you will play greater and great
er part In It.
Lesson of Responsibility.
Therefore, my wish Is to say to
you what | would say to myself. The
lesson of this election is a lesson Of
responsibility. l believe very heartily
that great cause has triumphed, that
the American people know what they
want, and that when they know what
they want they have the men and the
purpose to attain 1t; but that they can
not get what they want through the
activities of a single man or single
session of congress or single group
Of men. They must get it by long,
tedious efforts, In which this genera
ton will take so important a part.
Il myself hare no feeling of tri-
uraph | have a feeling Of solemn re-
sponsiOility. | know that a great task
lies ahead of the men associated with
me and ahead Of myself Therefore, |
look upon you men with the plea that
you with your thoughts, your best pur-
pose, your purest impulses, will stand
behind me and support the generous
men Of the new administration.
Mistakes Have Been Made.
Many things have been done. Mis-
takes have been made, but they can
be corrected. We must all have the
best tempers, the quietest minds and
yet the most resolute purpose in the
things we must do. Don't let any man
deter us from the cause
Il feel as If / were standing among
my younger comrades I thank you
for the inspiration and exhi1aration
that / received from your support"
