History declares in no uncertain terms
that the law Of progress Is paramount
and that the law Of retrogression has not
prevailed" declared William Folsom,
Merrill, Esq, in his Memorial day ad-
dress in the Skowhegan Opera house
Tuesday afternoon. "Just as the individ-
ual through his mistakes is enabled to
rise higher than he knew. so society
through its temporary setbacks erects
new landmarks which not only advance
from what was before, but are dem
onstration to all posterity of a state of
affairs which will never again be toll
Grated In close connection with the law
just mentioned Is the coordinate law of
sin and retribution-not only to the con-
duct Of individuals. but alike to the acts
and policies of nations. At the present
time. In the maestrom of this lawful
world-war we know that a terrible pun
ishment is in store for those nations
which cannot justify their course before
Almighty God"

speaker, ito commemorate and review the

yea. one of the grandest and most tow
ering landmarks. In the civilization of all
ages" landmark bedded In the spirit
OF patriotism, first consecrated at Ply
mouth Rock, which shall radiate liberty,
freedom and equality to all mankind. He
took up briefly the struggle for and win
ming of independence and the adoption of
our constitution in which was recognized
the right to hold human souls as chat
tells, this compromise of great princi-
pie which cost more lives and treasure
than the entire soldier population and
wealth of the Is original states, at the
time of its adoption. ut was this terrible
national sin that you were called upon
to wash out with your patriotic blood. :"
Then followed a graphic description Of
the events preceding the Civil War, the
election and inauguration Of Abraham
Lincoln the reminding Of loyalty and pa
triotism. ut is not too much to say that
the glory. the prosperity and the happi-
ness of this nation are the fruits of your
