TUECLORY OF AMERICA SILVER - TONGUED ORATORS EXTOL OUR LAND. Pralmw of Colnmbne Sang on the Pour Hundredth Annlvereary of Hb> AchievementGrand Import of Ula Work tu the ChrlaUan World. The Vlee-Pre.tdent'ii Speech. Vlco-Presldent Xorton accepted the Columbian Kxpoeitioii buildings and dedicated the great undertaking in fitting, woll-ohosen words. Ho o.ld: Mr. President: Deep indeed, must bo the sorrow which prohibits tho President of tho United SUtes from being tho central figure tn t lieso ceremonials. Realising from these sumptuous surroundings, tho extent ot <iestgn, the ndequacy of execution and the vastneaa of results. we may well imagine how ardently ho has aspired to be offlclallv and personally connected with this great work, so linked to the IMt and to the present of America. With k hat eloquent words he would have apoken of the heroic achievements and radiant future of his beloved country. While profoundly anguished in his most Under earthly affection, ho would not have us delay or falter in these dedicatory services and we can only offer to support his conrago by a pro to mid and universal sympathy. The at tent lon of our whole country and Ot nil ix'oples elsewhere concerned In Industrial yrogross is to-day fixed upon tho city ot Chicago. This Is duo not only to tho Columbian Exposition which marks an epoch, but to the marvelous growth and energy of the second commercial the Union, lam not here to recount the wonderful story of thia city's rise and advancement. These ere known of all in n. lam hero in behalf of the Government of the United States, in behalf of all tho people, to bid al! hail to Chicago, all hall to the Co'nmblan Exposition. What a spectacle have we here! Imok neon these magnificent erections xml consider their beauty and rapidity of rcalkatlon. They seem to be evoked at a wizard's tench of Alar’d n's lamp. They are worthy shrlqgs to record the achievements of the two Americas. Columbus is not now in chains, nor arc Columbian Ideas in fetters. We may not anticlp.-t’' the cbaracUr and value of or.r national exhibit. Rather may we anticipate that a conservative award will bo made by the w orld's orit clam to young ration eagerly 1 stoning to the 1 eikoning future. We can east y predict those who will come from every region of our country to make the exhibit. They will lie tho descendants of the sturdy and venerable immigrants: of many of th ' men of his time who made their mark In history. We are near the beginning of another century, and if no serious <hinge occurs In our pr« sent grow th in the year 1935, in the lifetime of many now la manhood, the English-speak-ing republicans ot America will number more than iso.iw.ooo. The transcendent feature in the character of Co nnibua was his faith. That sustained him in days of trial and darkness, and finally gave him the cr®at discovery. Like him, let us have faith in (Nir future.

tion to the world’s progress in art, in science, in agriculture and in aannfactureg. I dedicate them to humanity. God save the United States of America. Henry Wattoroon’s Oration. Among the wonders of creative and constructive geniux in course of preparation for this festival of the notions, whose formal and official inauguration has brought us together, will presently be witnessed upon the margin of the interecean which gives to this noble and beautiful city the character and rank of a maritime metropolis, a speotatorium wherein the Columbian epic will be told with realistic effects surpassing the most splendid and impressive achievements of the modern stage. It traces the strange adventures of the Genoese seer from the royal camp of Santa Fe to the very moment that beho’ds ns here, citizens, freemen, eqnal shareholders in the miracle of American civilization and development. Is there one among us who does not thank his Meker that he has lived to join in this universal celebration, the Jubilee of mankind? We look before and after and we Bee through the half-drawn folds of time as through the solemn archways of some grand cathedral the long procession pass, as silent and aa real as a dream; the caravels, tossing upon Atlantic billows, have their sails refilled from the east and bear away to the west; thelandi< reached, and fulfilled is the vision whose actualities arc to be gathered by other hands than his who planned the voyage and steered the bark of discovery. We look again and we see 4n the far northeast the old-world struggle between the French and English transfe rgd to the new. ending In the tragedy upon the heights above Quebec; we see the sturdy puritans in bell-crowned hats and sable gar ments assail in unequal battle the savage and the elements, evercoming both to rise against a mightier foe: we see the gay but dauntless cavaliers to the son th ward join hands with the roundheads in holy rebellion. And, lo! down from the green-wiled hlUx of New England, ont of the swamps es the Carolinas, come faintly to the ear. like far-away forest leaves stirred to mnsic by antumn winds, the drum-taps of the revolntion; the tramp of the minutemen, Israel Putnam riding before; the hoof-beats of Sumter's horse galloping to the front; the thunder of Stark’s guns in spiritbattle: the gleam of Marlon’s watch-fires in giro tly bivouac; and there, there in serried, saint-like ranks on Fame's eternal campingground, stand “The old continentals, In their ragged regimentals. Yielding not." aa, amid the singing of angels in heaven, tho scene la shut ont from our mortal vision by proud and happy tears. We see the rise of the young republic; and the gintlemen in the knee-hreeches and powdered wigs who signed the declaration and the gentlemen in knee-breeches and powdered wigs who made the Const tutlon. We see the little nation menaced from without. We sec the riflemen m hunting-shirt snd buckskin swarm troin the cabin in tl e wilderness to the rescue of country aud home; and onr hearts swell to a second and final decree of independence won by the prowess and valor of American arms upon the land gnd sea. And then, and then—since there is no life of natrons or of men without its shadow and it# sorrow—there comes a day when the spirits of the fathers nu longer walk upon the battlements of freedom: and all is dark; and all seems lost, save liberty and honor, and, praise God, our blessed Union. With these surviving who shall marvel at what we see to-day; this land filled w it li the treasures of the earth; this city snatched frorntbe ashes to rise In splendor and renown passing the mind to preconceiver r Truly, ont of trial comes the strength of man; out of disaster cotue# the glory of the stifle! We are met this day to honor the memory of Christopher Columbus, to celebrate the 400th aunual return of the year of h.s transcendent acbleveri|< nt, and, with fitting rites, to dedicate to Amcrica and the universe a concrete exposition of the world’s progress between 14j2 and 1H92. No twenty centuries can be compared with those four centuries either in importance or in interest, aa no previous ceremonial can be compared with this in its wide significance end reach: because, since the advent of the Hon of God, no event has had so great an influence upon hnman affairs a# the discovery of the western hemisphere. Our republic n p e ents the letter and spirit of the sublime declination. Th# .fetters that hound her to the earth arc buret asunder. The rags that degraded her beauty are cast aside. Like theencu mo f princess tn the leg nd, clad in aim'less raiment' snd wearing a crown of living light, she steps in tho perfection of her. mat urity open tho scene ot this the latest and I proudest of her victories, to bid » welcome ' to the world.

Hut for tho first, Columbui would never have sailed; but lor tho second there would have been no place tor tho plant, Ing, the nurture and the expansion ot olvll and religious liberty. Ancient history la a drearj record of unstable olvllliatloua. Each reachet its zenith of material splendor and pertsliod. The Assyrian, Persian, Egyptian. Grecian and Roman Empires were proofa ot the poralbtlt tics and limitations ot man for conquest and intellectual development.

Fifty years before Columbus sailed from Palos, Gnttenburg and Faust had forged the hammer which was to break the bonds of superstition and open the prison doors of the mind They had invented the printing press and movable typos. Tho prior adoption of a cheap process for tho manufacture of paper at once utilized the press. Its first service, like all its succeeding efforts, was for the people. The universities and schoolmen, the privileged ami tho learned tew ot that ago, were longing tor the revelation and preservation of the oisssie treasurers of antiquity, hidden and yet insecure in monastic colls ana libraries. But the first-born ot the marvellous creation of those primitive p inters of Msyence was the printed Bible. The priceless contributions ot Greece and Rome to the intellectual training and development of t‘ie modem world came afterwards, through tho same wom.r >us mach.ne. The forex, however, which made possible America, and its r flex influence upon Europe, was the open Bible by tho family i.reside. And yet neither the et UgLtenment of the new learning, nor the dynamic power of the spiritual awakening, could Lre ik throuvh the crust of caste which had been forming for centur is. Church and bt 'te had so firmly and dexteiouxlv interwoven tho bars of pr.vllege and authority, that llbe.ty was impossible from within. Its plerc.ng light and fervent heat must penetrate from without. God always has in training some commanding genius tor the control ot great crises In the affairs of nations and peoples. The number of these leaders are less than the centuries, but the'r lives are the history of bumau progress. Though Cxesar and Charlenrtgne, anq Hildebrand, and Luther, and AYlUiam Mie Conqueror, and Oliver Cromwell, and all th# epoch makers prepared Europe for the event, and contributed to the result, tho lights which illumine our flrmanent to-day are Columbus the discoverer, Washington the founder, and Lincoln the savior. Neither realism nor romance furnishes a mow striking and picturesque figure than that of Christopher Columbus. The mystery about his origin heightens the charm of lilx story. That he eaiugtrcDt ahiong the tcL'w of his time is with t 54 stre.g:es of our period.

AVedixiniss the painter, atd ’ .rolng with tho clarified vision ot the dawn ot the twentieth century, the veil of four hundred years, we construct our CQluxnbus. The perils ot the sea In his youth ®pon the rich argosies of Genoa, or in the service of tho licensed rovers who made them their prey, had developed a skillful navigator and Intrepid mariner. They had given him a glimpse of tho possibilities of the ’ nknown, beyond tbe hlghways ot travel, which roused an unquenchable thirst for adventure and.research. The study of the narratives of previous explorers, and diligent questionings ot the daring spirits who had ventured far toward the fabled West, gradually evolved a theory, which became In his mind so fixed a fact that he could inspire .others with his own passionate beliefs. The words, "that is a lie, written by him on the margin ot nearly every page or a volume of the travels of Marco Polo, which is still to be found tn a Genoese library, illustrate the skepticism of his beginning, and the first vision of the New World the fulfillment of his faith. To secure the means to test tho truth of his speculations, this poor and unknown < re rner, must win the support of kings and overcome the hostility of tne church. He njver doubled his ability to do both, t rough he knxw of no man living who was to great in power, or lineave, or learning that he could accomplish either. Unaided and alt ne he succee led n arousing the jealousies ot sovereigns, and dividing the councils ot the ecclesiastics. “I will command your fleet and discover tor you new realms, but only on tondltlon that you .outer on me hereditary nobility, the Admiralty of the Ocean and the Vice Rot altv and one tenth the revenues of the New VVor d,” were ids haughty terms to King John ot Portugal. After ten years of disappointment and poverty, subsisting most of the time upon the chtirlty ot th x enlightened monk ot the Convent of II - bida, who was his unfaltering friend, lie stood before the throne of Ferdinand and Isabella, and rising to imperial dignity in his rags, embodied the same royal conditions in his petition. Tho capture ot Granada, the expulsion of Islam from Europe, and the triumph of the Cross, aroused the admiration and clovotion of Christendom. But this proud beggar, holding in his grasp the potential promise and dominion of Eldorada and Cathay, divided with the Moslem surrender, the attention of sovereigns and bishops. France and England indicated a desire to near his theories, and see his maps, BEXBY WATTERSON. while he was still a suppliant at the gatex of the cainpof Castile and Aravon, the sportot its court era, and the scoff ot its < 0 feasors. Ills unshakeable faith, that Christopher < omnibus was commissioned from Heaven, both by his name and by divine command to carry “Christ across the sea" to new continents and pagan people, lifted him so far above the discouragements of an empty purse and a contemptuous court that he was proof against the rebuffs of fortune or of friend <• To conquer the prejudices of the clergy, to win the approval and financial support of tho state, to venture upon that unknown ocean which, according to the belief of the age, was peopled with demons and savage beasts of frightful shape, and from which there was no possibility of return, required tho zeal ot Peti r the Hermit, the clilvalrlo courage of the Cid, and the imagination ot Dante. Columbus belonged to that high order of cranks who confidently walk whore “angels fesr to tread," and often become tho benoractors ot their country or their kind. It was a happy oirien of the posit'on which women was to hold In America, that the only person who cotnpiehended themajes.lc scope of his plans, and the invincible qualities es his genius, was the able and gracious Queen of Castile. Isabella, alone of all the diguitarles of that age, shares with Columbus tho honors of his great achievement- She -arrayed her kingdom and her private foitune beh nd the enthusiasm of this mystic mariner, and xros-te-lt v pays homage to her wisdom and faith.
