The childhood of. the good woman who bore | him was cast near where the Atlantic flows in over the marsh and the sand. There she first { bullz her a home In the sreatness of God | Womanhood found her within the uplitting view of the mountains in a land over which the Almighty inverts a sapphire cup by da and sets his brightest stars on guard by night. And there, fellow countrymen, the soul of your President was born. Those of us who know and love him catch in the easy flow of his utterance and feel in its largeness of thought and contempt of littleness the rhythm of the ocean on the Georgian sands and the spirlt of the deep. In his lofty ideals and hopefulness, in his fixedness of purpose and unchanging ock-ribbed honesty, we liear the mountains calling. In his darjng, his impulsive courage, his unconquerable manhood, we see his great brother, the Georgia_voluntéer, in the hand to hand fights of the Wilderness, the impetuous rush up the helghts of Gettysburg and the de- flance of overwheiming odds from Chattancoga to Atlanth. We look at him as a Georglan abroad, and if in the providenco of God it may not as a prodigal son, who has wasted his man- hood, but as one who on every fleld of endeavor has horored his mother and worn the victor wroath, TO SERVE ALL ALIKE, WELL. Coming into the position of the martyred McKinley, the youngest chidf maglistrate that has ever Nlled the Presidential chair, without the ‘privilege and advantage of preliminary discussion and consultation, he gave the coun- try a-pledge that he would carry out the policies of his predecessor. It was a master stroke of genlus, applauded alike North and South. His conception of the duties of his high office, as formulated by him at Harvard, was ‘o serve all altke, well; to act In spirit of fairness and justice to all men and to give each man his rights’ = He has kept this pledge; he @as lived up to this fine con- ception of his duty. This pledge Involved a completion of the work begun In Cuba and An honcrable discharge of the promises made to our struggling nelghbor. The flag of an independent republic floats over Havana to- day, and” all men know that we have kept faith with the Cuban people. Leaving the details to' engineers, he bas cut as by a single stroke the Panama canal, through mountains of prejudice and centuriés of ignorance. In the far Philippines our flag floats, a guerantee of redemption, pacification and 'development. His concevtion of duty hqs led him into dif- ficult places In dealing wlth the internal fairs of our.own country; he has met every issue bravely and ably and demonstrated not only that prompt and decided action is often the highest expression of conservatism, but | that it is safe to trust the impulse of a man who s essentially and instinctively honest. | Fellow countrymen, after nearly four years of Theodore Rooseveit we find the army and navy on a better footing, our trade expended, the country at peace and prosperous and our flag respected In every quarter of the globe. The American people Will not withhold from him the applause of manly hearts. I am geud that my State, the Empire State of the uth, shares in the glory of his achievements, as it will share in their benefits. HIS FEARLESS HONESTY.
