You need a good weapon. If you have a bad weapon and you are put against a good man you come out second best (laughter), but if you have the best weapon made, and a poor creature yourself, you will be beaten by a club; we need the gun and we need the man behind the gun.

We can make this- Republic what it will surely be made by practicing the old, old virtue, common place virtues, which have made up citizenship from the time of the first republics in Greece up to the present time. It is exactly, as there isn't any patent recipe for being a good soldier. Now, you will be a good soldier if you have the stuff in you that made good soldiers in the days of Grant and Lee; that made good soldiers in the days of Washington: that good soldiers from the time that history dawned: and if you have aot good stuff in you. there will be difficulty in getting it out of you. (laughter and heers.) And so in citizenship, there is no patent device by which you i an make this country great: there is no patent device by which you make the average citizen a credit to his country, make him hold higher the stand-aid of good government.

The average citizen must realize that it is upan his shoulders the entire governmental structure rests. We get in the habit of speaking of the government as something that is bought for us. You are the government, you and 1. and the government will do well or ill according as we; and we must make up our minds that the affairs of the government shall be managed. No man can take the burden of government off the people fitted for sen government: no man can make it easy for any people to govern themselves; they have got to determine that themselves how the government shall and in the long run the government will reap their wishes their wishes for good or their wishes for evil or else their indifference to good or evil; and upon my word, I would rather have them actually bad than to have them neither.

(Cheers.) And so my appeal to you, my fellow Americans, to you here, as to every citizen in every section of the country, is that nothing, no law, no leader, no leadership can possibly take the place of the exercise of the funda-( Continued on Page Four.)

(Cheers).

That lesson applies through 'all our national life, and it applies just as much in forming a judgment between class and class and section and section. We never can succeed ii making this country what it can and shall be made until we work together, not primarily as Northerners or Southerners, Kasterners or Westerners, nor primarily as employers or employes, townsman or countryman, capitalists or wage earners, but primarily as citizens Ichecrs) as American citizens to whom the right of brotherly friendship and comradeship with all other decent American citizens comes as the greatest and first of all privileges. I wish to thank the men of the State Guard, who turned out as my escort, and I wish and I want to draw one lesson for civic- life from the deeds of the men in the Civil war, from the experiences that you and 1 of the younger generation have had; at Chickamauga, at Chattanooga, in all the fighting from 01 to '63 the fighting in which you, Mr. Mayor, and those like you won such imperishable renown. In that fight ng the men who followed Grant and the men who followed Dee were differently armed from the way in which their forefathers who followed Washington, Greene, Wayne and Marion were armed; they were differently uniformed, they were drilled by different tactics, but the spirit that drove them on was the same.

And now you of my generation, of the National Guard, whose friends and brothers served with and beside me in the Spanish war. it ever there should be any of going to -war for the country again, the chances of which, I believe, are small, if we fight with different weapons, if we need a small calibre rifle, we shall fight in different order, but we shall only fight with the spirit that drove you then.
