Evidently he believes with Carlyle that every people has as good government as It deserves to have. One of the finest things in his address was his tribute to ex-President Cleveland. The audience Joined the chorus in rendering "America," the benediction was pronounced and the Eagle Band discoursed music while the crowd dispersed. The great bulk of the people went to the barbecue, tlienco to Recreation Park to witness the ball games and other sports. The bronco busting by Jim Clark was an exciting and popular feature.
