after all? I am impressed that if this

nation is engaged in working out the question of the age then the work of our fathers will survive. But if we have built as a child piles his blocks we may not have hope for the future. God Behind All. "What Is back of this government Why did you men of ';i go? I am firmly convinced God is behind it all. You men helped to solve the problem. The one increasing purpose running through history is the equality of man. A mere fact alone is meaninglessa disconnected statement, must bear relation to something else before It can be understood. So when we come to search the history of the past we Bee the one idea that has survived the wreck of the past has been that of the equality of man. Everything must be forethought before it can be executed. Everything about us is the reult of somebody's thought. All along in the past man has been taught to embody the divine idea of equality of man in his constitutions-. "There is a solemn march in which ell must Join. The pillar of fire by day and cloud by night that has led through the centuries of darkness has been the divine idea of human equality. "Sometimes it seems it has been lost sight of, but it always has been found again within some mind. It was planted in the breast of primitive man by Almighty God. It is a longing that shall never cease its movement until it is voiced in all nations. The divine origin of this idea was on the hills of Judea. when the Son of God taught us the new prayer "Our Father." Oh, veterans ofalmost half a century, yours is a great lineage. It is of those who have died in every race that their principles might survive. In your veins course the blood of every martyr to bis cause. This idea has liad a history among the great minds of (he world. After all, you were but the means used when it became necessary to overthrow slavery, which was the great foe of your time. Before this awful crime, the great, the good, the rich, the poor, powerful and lowly all bowed low. But for you in the North to discuss slavery sounded the death knell of the institution. This Institution had scourged the slaves to market and could be wiped out only by the shedding of human blood. Slav1 ery hastened its own destruction just as every great evil does. "You boys, who rose up against It remember the awful power of slavery. You boys foresaw the danger. You were the common man thank God for the courage of the common man, as it is often he who forges through and brings about the victory that a leader alone would be powerless to accomplish. Ways Not Meaningless. "You vowed slavery was an evil to the nation and went forth. In four years there was no more slavery and the matchless flag of our country was unstained. The American republic has a divine mission and contends for a divine end. You have seen the march of advancement made by this stupendous power throughout the ages. Have our wars been absolutely meaningless and but child's play? No, this idea stood in battle with our boys from the daya of Washington on down. You boys were fighting for the same idea in '61, and the light shone in your eyes as you entered the smoke of battle. "I am not afraid of the future. There Is an idea behind this republic. You men fought to preserve it and we of today must fight to keep it through the years. In the name of humanity and liberty, again we thank you for what you have done, as what you did we are doing, for your sorrow Is our joy and for your great heroism. Fought for Amendments. "What did your war mean? Was It a mere fight between soldiers and leaders Just for supremacy? As the result of the struggle the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments were made to the constitution of the United States. One of the questions of the present hour is called forth by these amendments. You boys made long marches, drank from worm infested and polluted streams, ate provisions the worms would not eat, refused compromises ami rushed into the jaws of Hell for the principles involved in these three amendments. You did all of this and yet within the last sixty days I have heard in the halls of congress men say the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments ought to be wiped out Want Them Wiped Out. 'There are twenty-five men in Congress who represent a vote purposely disfranchised. South Carolina, Georgia. Mississippi and Alabama sends men to congress to represent men of color, upon whom you conferred the right to vote. You saved them and gave them this right, but not even now are they represented in any way. Shall we let them do it, shall we let them have their way? (Calls of "No. no." were heard from the veterans.'! I for' one am not willing to throw away the ! fruits of the civil war. They cost in" j years of sacrifice and civil strife to j this country and why should they be i cast aside? Let me tell you. there is j not a man here so gray but what, he is likely to live long enough to learn of i BETTER THAN SPANKING. Spanking does not cure children of bedwetting. There is a constitutional cause for this trouble. Mrs. M. Summers, Box W, Notre Dame, Ind., will send free to any mother her successful home treatment, wi ih full instructions. Send no money, but write her today if your children trouble you it. this way. Don't blame the child, the chances are it can't help it. This treatment also cures adults and aged people troubled wna urine difficulties by day or eight.

This is a picture of J. M. Murdock and his family in the 30 horsepower car which made a new transcontinental record from Los Angeles to New York in 32 days, 5 hours, 25 minutes. Mr. Murdock who is a wealthy Johnstown, Pa., lumberman, eclipsed even the professional touring car record.

the United States congress taking up the proposition to put aside these amendments which provide for the legislative representation. "I do not care to take up the negro question this afternoon, although it is one that bears on the importance of this occasion. I do not want to talk politics nor sectional strife. Over and above everything is the principle for which you boys struggled. You are here to pay homage to those who fought to retain this union. They died at different, times and different places, but all had flung themselves into the whirlpool of war for the same purpose as you did. "After all, these things which are so sad to us. but aid to work out the truth. National sins are punished by national calamities and what is sown is also reaped. If we permit anything of sin to cling to our country's institutions we will regret it some day. We should learn there are some things worse than war. War is a means of advancement and progress is the child of strife progress means warfare. The truth prevails after the conflict and truth remains. "To one great feature of our wars the world has never done justice. The men left the ranks one day and the next were engaged in the same pursuits as before the conflict and the army of greatest warriors became only a list of common men. The price had been paid and this was the end. Europe was startled by what occurred in this country. They knew the history of wars in Europe and they never dreamed of a war for any other than a selfish purpose. How little they understand the motives of fair fighting for principle. No Chance to Criticise. "You boys of "1 can not criticise the soldier boys of today. They are merely carrying the battles you fought further. They have climbed the ridge of the Pacific and have gone beyond the rim of their own country and strode forward to another part of the world. Your boys have gone on, but while giving battle, have stopped fighting long enough to plant 2.00 little red school houses on 2,000 hills in the Philippine Islands. Who doubts but that the Philippines will be all the better for this? There is no stain on the American flag of advancement than that of the blood spilt to defend it. This flag of ours does not mean oppression anywhere. We have the Philippine Islands. It was not of our chosing. They came to us. The only complaint I have to make is that we do not recognize them fully. I believe the time has come for absolute free trade with the Philippines. We should open up our breasts and give them this, the same as we have with New Mexico and other territories. They belong to us and we should treat them with perfect fairness. I believe the wrath of the American people ought to demand that congress grant this free trade. Wants Sufficient Protection. "We must pass on. I am not talking politic, but the welfare of the country'- I believe in having a navy big enough to protect Americans wherever Americans are. 1 want no big standing army, but one big enough to provide a sufficient guard. After all, I believe in reliance upon the character of the American people for the solution of all questions. God grant that the day of universal peace is not far off. But until that time we must have a nucleus for the army and navy. I can not see a speck on the horizon, but who knows what may come out of the womb of time. Do you know that of every dollar we collect for revenue, seventy cents goes to war? And yet we have the greatest Christian nation on the globe. We are compelled to provide protection for the time at present, however, as nother nations do it. Are Human Hogs. "As long as human selfishness ahounds there will be problems to solve. As long as the stronger oppress the weaker these prohlems will continue to demand solution. We can not leave all to our consciences. There are some human hogs. We have to deal with them as hogs. These men have to be dealt with on the hog plane and we have to pass laws to repress them and pound laws of equality into them. I do not mean this as a tirade against wealth. Everyone recognizes the necessity of wealth. Wealth must build railroads, but it

doesn't mean that the railroads need to own the country afterward. One of the greatest problems of the time and country is bow to prevent the accumulation of wealth into the hands of a few. We must keep in view the equality of man and protect all. So long as men remember the rights of others and do not assume the right to make, money regardless of the rights of others, then all is good, but beyond that the law must step in and say thus far and no further. You men fought tor this equality of man and we are trying to keep it. "And so it is with the question of temperance and local option. This should be decided at the polls, but I will not discuss this subject, as I would be sure to be charged with talking politics. "I never despair of this republic when I think of the boys of 'Gl and the problems that confronted them. "If all the statutes were wiped out for the spirit of brothernood of mankind and the golden rule were made the constitution, the problems would all be solved. The message of the eighteenth century to the nineteenth century was the character of Washington and the genius of the nineteenth century has sent to the twentieth century the sublime character of Abraham Lincoln. In every time of peace and struggle we shall arise and shout government of the people, for the people and by the people shall not perish from the earth." Upon the conclusion of the address of Mr. Watson, the young ladies sang "The Star Spangled Banner." Small bouquets were presented to all those in the audience. The eulogy to the soldier dead was delivered by John L. Rupe, of this city, and following his remarks the throng moved to the monument in the church yard and distributed the flowers. In his remarks Mr. Rupe called particular attention to the record of Indiana soldiers in the wars of the nation. The fourteen parties of automobilists that made the run from this city to Bethel were entertained to dinner at the home of Col. and Mrs. C. W. Wiley. The entertainment did not consist of the dinner alone, which was furnished. The Colonel was on his veranda when the first machine arrived. With his coat off. smiling face and steady right hand he greeted every visitor. He was the particular host, of the day, althought many visitors took dinner with friends or relatives in the village. His table was prepared to seat fourteen persons and it was necessary to change the plates four times. The tables bowed beneath the weight of the viands. There was a profusion and such a great variety that the hungry visitors from the metropolis of the county felt lost. He was not accustomed to the way things are done in Franklin township, but there was only a brief hesitation until the acquaintance was made permanent. The table contained everything from cherry preserves to deviled eggs and potato salad. Mrs. Wiley's reputation as the best cake baker in the county was maintained. One piece of that cake would have been a fit substitute for the ambrosia of the ancient gods.

WORK OP ASSOCIATION IS COMMENDABLE

Greensfork Cemetery Kept in Good Condition. Greensfork, Ind., May 30. The cemetery association of this place consists of a number of our leading women who have accomplished a great work in improving our cemetery. This society was organized a few years ago with Mrs. Hannah Bradbury as president, Mrs. Janet Btritin as secretary and Mrs. John Roller as treasurer. They immediately took charge of the cemetery south of town which at. that time was over grown with grass, poison vines and weeds, but by their efforts they have succeeded in raising money by donations, dinners and festivals, to clean the cemetery and keep it in good condition. A tool house has been built and three car loads of crushed stone for the shady drive-ways of the new addition have been purchased. For several years a man has been employed to keep the lawn in perfect condition. A Californian's -uck.
