the call of liberty there is perfect as
surance that the new response twill
come again in equal measure, with
equal majesty"

who died to preserve the union, died
to preserve the instrument which we

free nation espousing the cause of
human liberty. In one sense the great
struggle into which we have now en-.
tered is an American struggle, because
it is iu the sense of American honor
and American rights, but it is some.
thing even greater than that; it is a
world struggle. 1t is struggle of
men who love liberty everywhere and
in this cause America will show her
self greater than ever because she
