oarty. itself.
Did you ever reflect, gentlemen,
upon how careful we are in using one
of the most beautiful adjectives in our
language? We readily call men
great because there are many things
great that are not 1ovable. that are not
admirable-great in force. great in
astuteness, great In power. We are
very free with the use OF the word
great but there is one word which we
hoard and reserve. and that Is the word
noble We never apply 1t to a man
who thinks first of himself. but always
70 man who has some margin Of
energy outside the little circle OF his
own self-interest to spend for the
benefit of his fellow men. That ought
to be the spirit of government. of gov
eminent service. 1t ought to be touch
ed with this rare spirit of self-forget-
fulness. which is the spirit of nobility.
The simple thing have come to say
to you tonight, gentlemen. is this: Let
US band ourselves together to prove to
the people of the United States that
we understand what they want and are
reader to do it than anybody else that
they can f1nd.'

The fact that the company decided

the people of this section to sign the

taken as an indication of their con-

merely guaranteed by local business
men. It is not proposed to relax the
