| Had led our patriot sires:
Whose face was turned to the sleep
ing camp.
Afar through the rivers fog and damp.
That showed no flicker, nor waning
lamp,
Nor wasted bivouac fires.
And saw a phantom army come,
With never a sound Of fife or drum,
But keeping time to a ~throbbing hum
OF wallino and iamentation.
The martyred heroes of Malvern Hill,
OF Gettysburg and Charlottesville.
The men whose wasted figures fill
The patriot graves Of the nation.
And there came the nameless dead
the men
Who persisted in fever swamp and fen,
The slowly starved Of the prison pen;
And, marching beside the others,
Came the dusky martyrs Of Pillows
fight.
With limbs enfranchised and bearing
bright;
! thought-perhaps Z was the pale
moonlight
They looked as white as their
brothers!
And so all night marched the Nations
dead,
With never a banner above them
spread,
Nor a badge, nor a motto brandished;
No mark-save the bare uncovered
OF the silent bronze Reviewer;
With never an arch saved the vaulted
sky;
With never a flower save those that lie
On the distant ersves-for love could
buy
No gift that was purer or truer.
So all night long swept the strange
array,
So all night long till the morning gray
watched for one who had passed
away,
With a reverent awe and wonder
Till a blue cap waved In the lenoth'nins
And | knew that one that was kin Of
mine
Had come; and spake-and 10! that
sign
Awakened me from my slumber.

on the other, moreover. has given the
industry an exceptional significance
and value. Although the United States
will gladly and unhesitatlngly join In
the progress of international disarma-
ment. 1t will, nevertheless, be a policy
or obvious prudence to make certain
Of h successful maintenance Of many
strong and .well-equipped chemical
plants. The German chemical indus
try. with which We will be brought
Into competition, was and may well be
again. a thoroughly knit monopoly
capable Of exercising competition of a
peculiarly insidious and dangerous
kind.
The United States should, more
over. have the means of properly pro-
tecting itself whenever our trade is
Disseminated against by foreign ma
lions. In order that we may be assured
OF that equality Of treatment which
we hope to accord and to promote the
world over. Our tariff laws as they
now stand provide no weapon Of re-
taliation In case other governments
should enact legislation unequal in its
bearing on u products as compared
with the products of other countries.
Though we are as far as possible from
desiring to enter upon any course of
retaliation, we must frankly face the
TACT that hostile Legislation by other
nations Is not beyond the range of
possibility. and that it may have to be
met by counter-legisIation. This sub
1ect has, fortunately. been exhaustive
ly Investigated by the United States
tariff commission. A recent report of
that commission makes very clear that
we lack and that We ought to have the
instruments necessary for the assur-
nee OF equal and equitable treatment.
The attention OF the congress has been
called to this matter on past occasions.
and the past measures which are now
recommended by the tariff commission
are substantially the same that have
been suggested by previous admins
trations. | recommend that his phase
or the tariff question receive the early
attention OF the congress.
VIII you not permit me. turning
from these matters. to speak once
more, and very earnestly. of the pro-
posed amendment to the constitution
which would extend the suffrage to
women and which passed the house Of
representatives at the last session Of
congress-? 1t seems to me that every
consideration Of justice and Of public
advantage calls for the immediate
adoption Of that amendment and its
submission forthwith to the legisla-
lures of the several states. Through
out all the world this long delayed ex.
tension Of the suffrage is looked for;
In the United States longer, | believe
tina anywhere else. the necessity for

Tariff Revision.

Nevertheless. there are parts of our
tariff system which need prompt at
t~ention. The experiences Of the war
have made II plain that In some cases
too great reliance on foreign supply is
dangerous, and that in determining
certaiD parts Of our tariff policy do
nestle considerations must be borne
in mind which are political as well as
economic. Among the Industries to
which special consideration should be
given Is that of the manufacture OF
dyesturs and related chemicals. Our
complete dependence upon German
supplies before the war made the in
terruption Of trade a cause Of excep-
tional economic disturbance. The
close relation between the manufac-
turer Of dyestuffs. on the one hand,
and Of explosives and poisonous gases.

gest in the case Of the telegraphs and

lie interest that some legislation
should be considered which may tend
to make OF these indispensable instru-
mentalities of our modern life a uni
form and co-ordinated system which
will afford those who use them as com
plete and certain means of communi-

system OF the government, and at

pert advice Is, of course. available In
this very practical matter. and the
public interest is manifest. Neither

ice OF the country can be said to be In
any sense a national system. There
are many COMMISSIONS and Inconsistent

mentalities could be rendered more
