The applause which greeted Senater Deniel made the noise that had preceded it seem like a whisper, and It wes only allayed by music of the orchestra. Senator Daniel's Address The Fourth of July, he said, was the Lright, consummate flower which sprung out of all the battles that had ever been }fought for human freedom. It should be celebrated in every way, shape and form that can delight the human heart and ele- vate the human souls to holy aspirations. It was not a day for complaint, but for thanks unto God and te the true patriots who made the day the brightest day of hu- man hopes in all the calendar of time. Senator Daniel never spoke with more fervor or eloquence. He said this was an American day; a purely domestic product, home-made. “We have many Gays of r joicing,”” he said, “that have their origin in the foreign sheres and in the holy land, where the merning stars watched over the manger at Bethlehem. But this day was our day. We made it. It is the day that made us American citizens.” Referring to the compliment paid him by the orchestra, which rendered “Old Vir- inix” when he came forward, Senator said he was proud to say that the ians were the first Americans, were first, so they would be last to defend American libertie Continuing, Senator Daniei said he did hot propose to set down in a corner on such a day and complain that things were pot better than they are. If the benefits e are to be thankful for should be count- ed we would see things were not half as bad as they might be. Z Proceeding, he paid a beautiful tribute to the characters of President McKinley and Vice President Hobart. “The fact that the President of the Unit- as gone this day to lay all the honors of his great office and ali the af- ion of his heart at his aged mother’s feet is something we should all be thank- ful for!’ he exclaimed, and there was great and continued applause. He said the United States was a country of parties. There were good men and bad men in both parties, but it was wrong to class those arranged in honest party strug- gles as political enemies. Under the flag of the Fourth of July they were all broth- ers and citizens of a common country. He created much laughter by saying that he differed from some men in other parties who were trying to tax the country mto prosperity, and that he fervently hoped they would if they could. He eloquently portrayed the many blese- ings Americans should be thankful for, and proceeded to say there was no text in the holy book so inspiring as the line “Truth shall make you free.” Truth hath made the Union free. ~ ‘The Fourth of July was a national day.

The south, though, after Appomattox, had fallen back on enirench- ments that could never be taken. The Fourth of July was the centerpiece and the Sth of January and the 22d of February the right and left redoubts. — ; The Fourth of July was also’an intellec- tual day. All Britain, all:;Eurepe was as- tonished at the calm’ ond: dignified words that came from the children of the field and the forests; the philosophers of the woods in the far-oft colonies, “Some people in this cauutry,” he said, re making the same mistake that George U1 and his followers did. They are saying that the people do not know anything about the tariff; about the money question; about business affairs; that they are:the experts and the common people must ;let such af- fairs alone.’ i He created much enthusiasm when he de- clared that his vote against the adoption of the arbitration treaty was inspired by | the spirit of Jefferson and Washingto: “Iam an American,’ he exclaimed, “and I want to see America dependent upon no erutch, but only supported by the brawn right arms of her men. ; & want to see her stand alone and go forth and conquer for the universal emancipation of man and his universal brotherhood.” There was a perfect storm of chcering at his close. When it subsided Mr. Robert E. Mattingly read the Jast letter Jefferson ever wrote Jetlerso s Letter to man. Much attention was paid to the reading by Robert E. Mattingly of the last letter Thomas Jefferson ever wrote. It was dated at Monticello, Virginia, June 24, 1826, and was in reply to an invitation from Mayor Roger C. Weightman of this city to attend the celebration of thes fiftieth recurrence cf Independence day at the national capi- tal. In his letter Mr. Jefferson said: The kind invitation I receive from you, on the part of the citizens of the city of Washington, to be present with them at their celebration of the fiftieth anniversary Mayor Weight- of n independence, as one of the surviving signers of an instrument preg- nant with our own and the fate of the world, is most flattering to myself, height- ened by the honorable accompaniment pro- pesed for the comfort of such a journey. It adds sensibly to the sufferings of sick- to be déprived by it of a personal perticipation in the rejoicings of that day. But acquiesence is a duty, under cireum- stances not placed among those we are permitted to control. I should indeed, with peculiar delight, have met and exchanged there congratulations personally with the small band, the remnant of that host of worthies who joined with us on that day in the bold and doubtful election we were country, between sub- mission or the sword; and to have enjoyed with them the consolatory fact that our fellow citizens, after half a century of ex- perience and prosperity, continue to ap- Prove the choice we made. Prophecy of the Sage. “May it be to the world, what I believe it will be (to some parts sooner; to others later, but finally to all), the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which ignorance and superstition had per- suaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self- government. That form which we have substituted restores the free right to the unbounded exercise of reason and freedom of opinion. All eyes are opened, or open- ing, to the rights of man. The general spread of the light of science has already laid open to every view the palpable truth that the mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of God. These are grounds of hope for others. For ourselves, let the annual return of this day forever refresh our recollections of these rights, and an undiminished devo- tion to them: “I will ask permission ‘hereto express the pleasure with which T’should have met my ancient neighbors of thé city of Wash- ington and {ts _vicinitie# with whom I passed so many years of # pléising social intercoursey an intercourse whieh so much relieved the anxicties of he mblic cares, and left impressions so deeply engraved in my affections as. never, to, pe forgotten. With my regret that ill health forbids me the gratification of an? Acceptance, be pleased to receive for yourself and those for whom you write the fssurance of my highest respect and friendly ajtachments.” When the reading was. concluded the Jefferson quintet, composéd of’ B. F. Tay- lor, James E. Taylor, Péawéod ‘Taylor, James H. Cathell and William Morgan, who possessed we-traineg;voiges of much excellence, sang "The Jeffersonian Ban- ner,” the song of the cluts Belonging to the national association, %e which it was dedicated by the author of:the-words and music, Mr. William T. Whelan of this city. Closing Feature: The last feature of the program was a series of short addresses to be delivered by gentlemen representing the thirteen” origi- nal states. Several of them were unavoid- ably absent, but interesting-and timely ad- dresses, which were strongly political and voiced the general sentiment that the plat- form and ticket in 100 would be 16 to 1 and William J.

When the addresses were begun very few males were left in the au- dience, and when the last speaker had made his address most of the ladies had de- parted. SONS AND DAUGHTERS (Continued from First Page.) them with patriotism to our country and its flag. One Great Danger. One great danger tcday is the tendency among some to widen the chasm between capital and labor, to make the working- man feel that the prospcrity of the capi- talists is an injury to himself and to make the capitelists feel that the workingman is simply a beast of burden. This is wrong The prosperity of one means the pros- perity of both. They should work to- gether. Capitalists are necessary, for with- out them great enterprises are impossible. and labor is the creator of all wealth, and the men who toil are true sovereigns where labor is henored and merit distinguished. One reason for this ccndition appears to be that too many young men become weary of the farms and crowd into the cities, expecting to win success with ease. The professions are all full of men who came from the country to better their con- ditions, when, in fact, they made them worse, for the competition in the city is a thousand times sharper. Indeed there 1s not much niusic in the rattle of the cable or electric car; there is not much joy in the darkness of a musty office on the top floor of a lofty building. But there is in- spiraticn in green fields and fruittul or- chards; there is music in the hum of reapers and mowers and there is melody in the songs of birds as they carol amid the trees, and there is pure air and health and sunlight in the harvest fields, in the meadows €nd among the shady groves. In our cities too many merchants and bankers do not take enough interest in their employes to visit them and note the manner in which, on their meager wages they care for father and mother and otner dependent upon thei. 1 believe in as short hours and as g00d pay as possible for all who toil, And it is right, just and proper that the woman who is compelled to labor for living, should receive the some pay fo: same work performe and ithin the time as the man who works in shop or factory by her side. let her vote, if she des: Indeed, I would also ed. She certainly cught to be as much entitled to this privi lege as the thug and ballot box stuffer who makes himself so conspicuous in some localities. ‘There skculd be no qvsrrel between capi- tal and labor; one cannot do without the other, Both are needed in developing the latent resources of our republic, both are necded to make our nation rich, prosperous and happy. We do not want this land to become one of cruelty, weakness and deception, We do not want the future historian to be able to record, on pages bedewed with gererous tears, the sad story that the free n of the west arose in splendor t the world stare; that it possibilities; but it hated justice, and it hugged its crime; it halted on its high march; it fell, and as it was going down all the despotisms of earth from the tops of bloody thrones began to shout: “Ah, ha! We told ycu so! We told you so!” | No! No! Here equal and exact justice shall prevail among all classes of our people and beautiful virtue and spiritual grac hall light up the homes of rich and poor and all will hail the good time coming when human justice shall retlect divine justice as the quiet lage the star. And as national greatness is imparted by indi- vidual triumph, the nation is great as the people are grea pro- gressive as the peopl = her con- ceptions of these attributes. In this land we want no ses of So- ciety. No high, no low, no rich, no poor. Society must not be formed in layers like the earth's crust, as it is in other lands. Here society must be rather like the ocean, so broad, so long, so deep, that cvery grain of sand that mingles with the waters at the Lottom may rise through all the currents until it gleams like a jewel on the crest of the highest wave. So here, the poorest son of the man who toils may wind his lowly way over tortuous paths to final greatness, through all grade: made had magnificent cla of society, from the humble cabin home of poverty, until he becomes the chief ciu- zen of a mighty nation, the ruler of th grandest republic in history, like Lincoin, Grant, Garfield and McKiniey. It must ever be true that: “Where’er our destiny sends forth Its widening circles to the south and north; Where’er our banner floats beneath the stars Its mimic There sh: stand, ‘ The equal sovereigns of a freeman’s land. plendors and its cloud-like ba 1 free labor's hardy children Anarchy Labor's Worst Foe. Another danger is anarchy. It is the worst foe of the poor laboring man in this country. It drowns out henest cry for reform with vociferations for anger and blood. If the vagabonds who are running up and down the country trying to sew the seeds of dissension and disloyalty and sirife were hushed up in some place of security, the oppressed and down-trodden laborer would have more work and more bread for his household. Anarchy will not make wo- men and children less hungry, nor will it make men happier. One man has a strong arm, that is capi- tal; another has a brilliant genius, that is capital; to cut the muscles of that arm, break down that mind and put out that genius is anarchy. It is only by upholding and sustaining the supremacy of the law we can assist in maintaining and preserving the perpetui of our free institutions. The shadow of the future rests on the shore of the pre: ent, and what lies in that shadow, what mysteries it conceals, no soul can tell. But we do know that the sublime governmental trinity, liberty, equality and justice, cannot be maintained through the manifold chang- es cf remorseless time, unless they are placed forever under the control of the immortal and indestructible dynasty of law. Another danger is slavery from political demagoguery and impurity in politics. To that condition whereby a few may control our large cities, and thus control the states by methods of corruption, and thus leave the masses of the people as helpless as slaves. Another danger is in opening the gates of the republic to too much indiscriminate foreign immigration. Understand me, now I do not say one word against worthy, de- serving foreigners, for my own father was born in the mountains of Wales, and most of our ancestors and forefathers in this re- public were foreigners; among then were men whose fathers stood amid the array of patriots who wrested Magna Charta from King Join on the field of Runny meade. And there were those who follow- ed Cromwell at Marston Moor and Naseby. And there were those whose fathers fol- lowed the white plume of Henry of Na- varre in the years of the long ago. But what I do say is that every worthy and deserving man or woman from every land and every clime shall come here and find a herpy home, providing they come to be one of us, to love their adopted country as the apple of their eye, and to be willing to stand by its flag, come weal or woe. But we do not intend that this land shall beccme the dumping place for the off- scourings of other lands. No; we do not intend to admit so many Trojan horses filled with foreign enemies within the gates of our cities. The Love of Country. While saying nothing against other coun- tries, let us learn to love our own more and more. Let us teach our youth that our country and its system of government is the best on earth, and that it is their duty to strive for its development and upbulld- ing. That they should not attempt to ape foreign aristocracies, nor copy their cus- tems or habits. Teach them to love the public schools, for they are the bridges across which they may pass to higher planes of usefulness in life. Indeed, free- dom is the only soil on which educated men can grow. Liberty has always been the child of education and progress. In all lands in all ages it has defied rocks, chains and dungeons to crush it. It has strewn the earth with its monuments and shed un- dying luster on countless fields through the gloomy night of ages.~ And there seems to “be something in our wild and beautiful landscapes, our cascades and cataracts, in our waving fields, in the dim vistas of our mighty woodlands, in the beauty of bud, of bird, of tree and flower, in the exhilarating airs of our hills and mountains that in- spires our people with an ardent love for. lberty and knowledge. Oh, let us feel that this great country is our country; that we have a personal pro- prigtorship in the glowing luster of its his- tory and in the honor of its name. Let us bind the different sections together closer and closer than ever before. Let her do- main be extended. And whenever other lands or even the islands of the sea, may desire to join us on our march of progress, and wish the protection of our flag, let us take them in and make them feeF at home, FINANCIAL. __ FINANCIAL Money at 5 PerCent to Loan On real ‘estate in District of Columbia, No ae- | Jay in closing loans. < ap2i-t HEISKELG & McLERAN, 1008 F st.

A Brave Consul. Shortly after the close of the civil war two young men, one the son of a Union and the other the son of a confederate soldier, went to Cuba to seek their for- tur Soon after their arrival there the southern boy was arrested for murder, ond, though innocent, was tried and, on cir- cumstantial evidence alone, was found 'y and sentenced to be shot, next rora- ing, at sunrise, cn the village green. He and his companion were strangers in a strange land; they knew not what to do: but finally the northern boy t the American consul, who was so! miles away, and securing a hors: for the consulate, arriving there midnight.

The consul, Ameri triot that he was, did not inqui that boy was from a northern or southern state. His only inquiry was: “Is he an American and entitled to the protection of The very best the flac?” There wasn't much power in that little piece of bunting, but behind it those soldiers knew there w as brave men as San army of ever shouldered a musket or unsheathed a sword, who would give their lives in defense of that flag, and who, is need be, would march through rivers of blood to avenge the humblest American murdered in a foreign land. Oh! Let us destroy utterly the hyd: headed monsters—sectional hate, passion and prejudice. We want no east, no west, no north, no south. We want’ but one country, one flag, one destin: If the pe ple of the north and south will banish re- membrance of the anger of the past, and their spirit and pride to the iradi- unite tions of the nation, and pledge themselves to its future power and glory. n then no more endure than the snow n last when kissed by the beams of the warmth of the life-giving sun. Palsied be the hand that wou! the wounds that have becn healing with the blessed halm of for the war drum beats no longer, and the battle flags are furled. prejudice 1d tear open A Glotfous Future. And now, in the glorious sunset of the evening of this wondrous nineteenth cen- tury, with malice toward none, but with charity for all, we turn our faces toward the beckoning seas of a still greater and more prosperous future, and hail the dawn of the coming century with hope and joy. And our reunited people, from their crowd. ed homes in the east, and on the broad plains of the west, from the wheat fields of the north, and the magnolia and pal- metto groves of the south, will join. to- gether in a mighty anthem, until the for- est aisles will echo the strAin, mountains and valleys reverberate the glorious song, and from lake and meadow, city and ham. | let, workshop and farm, will swell the chorus as the people sing: God bless our land From sea to sea all its years of joy increase, hate and war forever cease, And down the ages yet to be, Around its brow bind fair and free The trophied victories of peace. And the old Ship of State sails proudly on, safe in all her spars and rigging. with all her sails spread, all her timbers sound, without a spof and without a stain, with the banner of the republic waving in beauty at her masthead, freighted with a precious cargo, and manned by a brave and gallant crew, ready alike for storm and sunshine; on her deck stand the sur- viving men who marched in ragged blue and the men who marched in tattered gray, aiong war's crimson highways; some on crutches and some with empty sleevi but all with heads whitened with the snows of many winters: yet, thank God, on the | altars of their souls brightly burn the fires of youth; while by their sides stand their sons, grown to man’s estate, strong and rugged, brave and loyal, and together, as brothers, they join in a wondrous refrain that is heard by liberty-loving people in the isles of the seas, and which startles royalty on foreign thrones as they shout Fecurmody, Jol their jubilee: “The union of lakes, the union of lands, The union of states none can sever: The union of hearts, the union of hands, And the flag of the Union forever. Mr. Davis’ references to Secretary Sher- man were received with tremendous ap- plause, and upon it’s conclusion he received a flattering ovation. Judge Weldon Did Not Speak. At the conclusion of Mr. Davis’ address, which lasted about an hour, Secretary Sherman, who had listened attentively and with apparent high appreciation to the words of the young orator of Missouri, left the platform and took his carriage for home. Judge Lawrence Weldon of the Court of Claims was to have delivered an address, but information was received that he had been taken ill and was unable to be present. “Hail Columbia” was again played by the Marine Band, after which Rev. Dr. Randolph H. McKim, chaplain of the Sons of the Revolution, pronounced the benediction and dismissed the meeting.
