THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND
 THE WINNING OF THE WEST


 Familiar is the phrase, and more so since Roosevelt chose it for the title of a popular history, but the fact is greater than phrases or .narrations. What the Republican party has done to open the farms to settlement, to feed the cattle on a thousand hills, to bring the mines close to the markets, to bear the soldiers of the sixties from one conquest to another, this makes a great chapter in our na tion's annals. Our country moves so rapidly, our developments flash so like the pictures on the screen that even the mature half forget and many of the juniors never hear what wondrous things have been.
 The longing for land was one of the great motives for colonization. A settler might die in a snowdrift or fall never to rise from a sunstroke; he might be slain by a wildcat or 
 escaped these perils he had excellent prospects of getting land of his own This might mean only a sustenance for himself and family, the nearest market might be an impossible dis tance, his life might be one of hard ship, still the sense of being landed proprietor, of gathering his crops with no baron or factor stOe. rule him, of shooting down Wild% beasts with no gamekeeper's scowl before his eyes, was alluring to many a pioneer. In the colonial days the crown gave land warrants to brave soldiers. Our Revo- lutionary forefathers followed the plan. Settlers wended their way over the mountains, pitching their tents wherever their will directed them and conditions permitted. As the steam boats began to ascend and descend the Mississippi river, the westward wave grew stronger. Every conner cial panic drove some of the losers to seek their fortune anew in the West Coming events were foreshad- owed when Irving travelled across the prairies and Cooper told of Leather Stocking, steadily moving deeper into the wilderness.
 The Mexican war and the gold mines of California quickened the pace of the immigrants. One of the most interesting landmarks of our political history is that in 1856 both parties declared for railroad to the Pacific. But the Republican party gave to our national life something better than words, words, words. It sought to open the new lands to the free settler and when James Buchan- ans veto blocked the way it waited for a more favorable hour, and passed the famous Homestead bill. During the terrible four years of civil strife the surveys for the Pacific railroad went on though the areas were wide and the red man lurked in Jthe ravines. Lincoln's exultant message, "the father of waters again goes unvexed to the sea-" echoed and re-echoed in the determination that rails should join the oceans. Let us

every pioneer seems a new Abraham, going out, knowing not whither he went. Not lightly but with the deep est reverence may it be said that the crossing of the Mississippi has fas- cination like that of the crossing of the Jordan.
