The measuring lines are fallen unto
us i'll pleasant places, yea we have a
goodly heritage. May we not so Dor
row the words Of the Psalmist and
translate into them the emotions Of
our hearts. where once there is COM
bined with ON impressions Of the
goodly p%rairies OF the east our first
view OF the glorius OF this westward
country? Must we not with fervor
declare that the God OF nature has
fully in these United States his good
gifts in the kingdom of nature For
where is the industry which is by
necessity barred from our shores,
and where the noble aspirations, the
worthy strivings of man that can find

younger generation who through
the faithfulnesS of our parents have
become the heirs of two countries, Of
the spiritual riches of the old and OF
the marvellous opportunities OF the
new,-must we not say in all humble
ness, yea We have a goodly heritage,
yea the God OF mercy. hath dealt
kindly with Us TO give us a place and
a shore in the wonder he is working
here between the Atlantic and the
Pacific.
Our fathers have been men OF
appreciation. men of courage. men OF
faith. a few have ridiculed, a few have
Knocked and doubted, but the many
have scattered themselves abroad to
possess, to make these opportunities
their own.
1t is because our fathers have been
men of courage. men of faith and
hope, that we are enabled now TO
hold this convention at the utmost
western edge of our homeland.-Our
fathers were men OF faith and hope,
we are their heirs.
But turning now from the lower
to the higher, forgetting Gods boun-
ties OF nature in remembering the
riches OF his grace, we yet hold fast
