Bartlett, who commanded the Roosevelt, in which Peary journeyed on his trip to the North Pole, sailed into port today and anchored the two- masted Gloucester fishing schooner, Effie M. Morrisey, off Stapleton, Staten sland, after a stormy 18-day voyage from Brigus, Conception Bay, New Foundland. The trip had been ex- pected to take only 10 days and fear had been felt for the safety of the 18 men aboard. It was the stormiest voyage of his life, Capt.

Some of us were born here of a cestry that has lived here for generations. Others of us were born abroad and brought here at a tender age, or have come to these | shores as a result of mature choic But when once our feet have touched this soll, when once we have made this land our home, wherever our place of birth, whatever our race, we are all blended in one common coun- try. All artificlal distinctions of line- age and rank are cast aside. We all rajoice in the title of Americans. But this is not done by discarding the teachings and beliefs or the character which have contributed to the strength and progress of the peoples from which our various strains derived their origin, but rather from the ac- ceptance of all their good qualities and their adaptation to the require- ments of our institutions. None of those who corhe here are required to leave any good qualities behind, but they are rather required to strengthen and fortify them and supplement them with such additional good quali- tles as they find among us. “While it is eminently proper for us to glory in our origin and to cherish with pride the contributions which our race has made to the common progress of humanity, we cannot put too much emphasis on the fact that in this country we are all bound together in a common destiny. We must all be united as one people. This prin- ciple works both ways. As we do not recognize any inferior races, so we do not recognize any superior races. We all stand on an equality of rights and of opportunity, each deriving just honor from their own worth and ac- complishments. It is not, then, for the purpose of setting one people above another that we assemble here today to do reverence to the memory of a great son of Sweden, but rather to glory in the name of John Ericsson and his race as a preeminent ex- ample of the superb contribution which has been made by many dif- ferent nationalities to the cause of our country. We honor him most of all because we can truly say he was a great American. Swedish People Extolled. “Great men are the product of a great people. They are the result of many generations of effort, toil and discipline. They do not stand by themselves; they are more than an individual. They are the incarnation of the spirit of a people. We should fail in our understanding of Ericsson unless we first understood the Swe- dish people both as they have de- veloped in the land of their origin and as they have matured in the land of their adoption. “Sweden is a country where exist- ence has not been easy. Lying up under the Arctic Circle, its climate is tinged with frost, its landscape is rugged, its soll ylelds grudgingly to the husbandman, so that down through the centuries its people have been inured to hardship. These exter- nal conditions have contributed to the strength, the greatness and the char- acter of that little nation which even now numbers scarcely 6,000,000 peo- le. Independence, courage, resource- Iness have marked the race since we read of them in Tacitus and Ptolemy. The meagerness of their soil drove them to the sea; their natural characteristics drove them to adventure. Their sea rovers touched all known shores and ventured far into the unknown, making conquests that have had a broad influence upon succeeding European history, At an early period they were converted to the Christian faith and their natural independence made them early re- sponsive to the Protestant Reforma- tion, in which their most famous King, Gustavus Adolphus, “the Lion of the North,” one of the most militant figures in the movement for a greater religious freedom. It!was under this great leader that plans were first matured to establish a col. ony in this country for purposes of trade and in order that the natives, as was set out in the charter, BEhY he “made marn siTiied 4 morality taught and the Christian | 3 religlon * * besides the further propagation of the holy gospel.” | Were Pioneers Here. “While it was under a new charter that a Swedish colony finally reached the Delaware in 1638, they never lost sight of their original purpose, but among other requests kept calling on the mother country for ministers, Bibles and psalm books. Forty-one clergymen came to America prior to 1 One of the historians of this early settlement asserts that these colonists laid the basis for a religious structure, built the first flour mills, the first ships, the first brick yards, and made the first roads, while they introduced horticulture and scientific forestry into this Delaware region “It was not until after 1843, when the restrictions on leaving their own country were removed, that the large movement of Swedish immigrants be- gan, which with their descendants are now estimated at nearly 2,000,000 peo- ple. Stretching into our Northwest- ern States they have cut down the forests and brought the wide prairies under cultivation over an area of more than 10,000,000 acres. The bullding of nearly 2,000 churches and nearly as many schools stands to their credit. They have established about 20 higher institutions of learning; set up a large number of charitable or- ganizations and more than a thousand socleties for public welfare and mu- tual benefit; written thousands of books and published hundreds of newspapers, among which are some of the leading journals of the country. Always as soon as they have provid- ed shelter for themselves they have turfted to build places of religious worship and founded institutions of higher learning with the original purpose of training clergymen and teachers. Augustana College, Gus- tavus Adolphus College and Bethany College are seminaries of learning which stand to their credit. Fought in Revolution. “Though few {n numbers during the period of our Revolutionary War, they supported the colonial cause, and it has been sald that King Gustavus III, writing to a friend, declared “If I were not king I would proceed to America and offer my sword on behalf of the brave Colonies.” One of the signers of the Declaration of Inde- pendence was John Morten or Morte: son, and it has been claimed that Betsy Ross was of Swedish descent. No less than 14 Swedish officers serv- ed our cause in the Army or in the French fleet which took part in the Revolutionmry campaigns. After the close of the war the Swedish minister at Paris called upon our representa- tive, Benjamin Franklin, and offered to negotiate a treaty of commerce and amity, thus making Sweden the first European power which voluntarily and without solicitation tendered its friendship to the young Republic. This treaty was ratified by Congress in July, 1783. The title of “President of the United States in Congress As- sembled” was first held by John Han- son of Maryland, in 1781, who after- ward installed George Washington as the first President who was chosen under the Constitution. ‘“As these Americans of Swedish blood have increased in numbers and taken up the duties of citizenship, they have been prominent -in all ranks of public life. They have been distinguished in the public service of the States, filling many of the offices from the governorship down. I shall name but one of the public officlals of the Swedish race who have served our country so faithfully as repre- sentative of the great legion whose names spring to our thoughts, a learned lawyer, blessed with great ability, possessed of high character, a seasoned parliamentarian with a rec: ord of prominent leadership in the Legislature of his own State and in the Congress of the United States, a man endowed with the old Norse spirit, a true American, the senior Benator from Wisconsin, Irvine L.

Many in Civil War. “When Lincoln began his great struggle for the integrity of the Union this strain was becoming in- creasingly numerous, and Dr. Aman- dus Johnson declares that 1 cent of all Americans of Swedish blood volunteered for service in the Federal Army. Among those who reached a high command were Gen. Stolbrand and Rear Admiral Dahl- gren, while the rank and file main- tained the record of fame for the fighting qualities which from time im- memorial have characterized the race, Such is the background and great- ness of the Swedish people in the country of their origin and in Amer- ica that gave to the world John Erics- son. They have been characterized by that courage which is the founda- tion of industry and thrift, that en- durance which is the foundation of military achievement, that devotion to the home which is the foundation of patriotism, and that reverence for religion which is the foundation of moral power. They are representa- tive of the process which has been going on for centuries in many quar- ters of the globe to develop a strain of pioneers ready to make their contri- bution to the enlightened clvilization of America. “The life of this great man is the classic story of the immigrant, the early struggle with adversity, the a peo- home in a new country, the final suc-| cess. Born in the Province of Verm- land in 1803, at the age of 17 he en- tered the army. But the urge for a NATIONAL PROTOSS wider opportunity for his talents pos- | sessed him, and at 23 he went to | England. He entered an engineering firm and always preferred to be con sidered an_engineer rather than an inventor. The development of power interested him. and within a year his fertile mind had begun improvements of far-reaching extent upon boilers and engines. With that boundless en- ergy which was to characterize him through life he soon designed the fire engine and developed the screw pro- pellor for marine use. It was this new invention which brought him to America in 18: His hopes to inter- est the Federal Government in this method of navigation were not im- mediately realized, but he began con- struct®ng propeller boats on the Great Lakes and started a fleet on the canal between Baltimore and Philadelphia, which caused the raliroad to cut its fare in two, and where the boat serv- ice still keeps the name of the Erics- son Line. He was soon building a small steamboat, called the Princeton, which was the first man-of-war equipped with a screw propeller and with machinery below the water line out of reach of shot. In 1876 he de- scribed this vessel as the ‘foundation of the present steam marine of the whole world. She revolutionized naval vessels.” President Tyler and his cabinet made a trial trip down the Potomac on this boat, which, al- though marred by a fatal accident caused by the bursting of a gun, dem- onstrated the desirability and success of this type of warship.

It arrived none too soon, for that morning the Confederate iron- clad Virginia, reconstructed from the Merrimac, began a work of destruc- tlon among the 16 Federal vessels, carrying 298 guns, located at that point, The Cumberiand, with 24 guns, was battered to pleces, losing 117 of its 300 men. The Congress. with 15 guns, was grounded and set afire, and the Roanoke and Minnesota were badly damaged and run ashore. “The result was consternation among the Federal authoritles.

And well might he add: “‘How the ancient Skalds would have struck their wild harps in hear- ing such names in heroic verse. How they would have written them in immortal runes.’ Hit and Routed Merrimac. “After a battle lasting four hours in which the Monitor suffered no material damage, except from one shell which hit the observation opening in the pilot house, tempo- rarily blinding Lieut. Worden, the commanding officer, the Merrimac, later reported to have been badly crippled, withdrew, never to venture out again to meet her-conqueror. “The old spirit of the Vikings, he- coming American. had again tri- umphed in a victory no less deci- sive of future events than when it had hovered over the banner of Wil- liam the Congueror. It did for the Union cause on the sea what the Battle of Gettysburg later was to do for it on land. If some of the European countries had any serious thought of joining with the South, such intentions were speedily aban- doned. That engagement revealed that in the future all wooden navies would be of little avail. The London Times stated that the day before this momentous battle E 149 first-class warships. after she had but 2, and they were iron-plated only amidships. ~Naval warfare had been revolutionized. The great genius of Ericsson had brought about a new era in naval constructicn. Naval authorities now recognize the armored vessel which he sent into action as ‘the germ of the modern battleship,’ and behold in ‘the modern dreadnaught the glorified Monitor." “Great as were these achievements | they are scarcely greater than those which marked the engineering and inventive ablilities of this great man which were to benefit the industry, commerce and transportation of the country. He was a lover of peace, | not war. He was devoted to justice and freedom and was moved by an abiding love of America, of which he had become a citizen in 1848. He had a peculiar horror of slm'er%'. In 1882 he wrote to a United States Senator: “ ‘Nothing could induce me to ac- cept any remuneration from the United States for the Monitor once presented by me as my contribution to the glorious Union cause, the | ing his proleu‘l'un with great diligence, even into his éighty-sixth year, when he passed dway at his home in New York City on the 8th of March, 1889, the anniversary of the arrival of the Monitor in Hampton Roads.
