The Oratorical Contest last week was the object of universal conversation. A large and intelligent audience, good music, good speeches, and much applause, sum up the character of the evening's entertainment. In the speeches we think we can see an improvement over ail previous productions. They gave evidence that their authors were on the right track ;ind had correct views upon important questions. With a few exceptions, there was a praiseworthy absence of "fine things" in the writing and a desire to enforce views in the best and clearest language. There was no production that did not deserve credit for thought and there was no speaker that we would have been ashamed to send to the State Contest as a representative. The program was as follows : "Marriage and Divorce" S. M, Erring, "Skepticism in Common Life,'1 D. C. Stewart, "Money" A. C. Patton; "Agnosticism" W. C. Mason; "A Reply to Socialism," J. N. Huff; "The need of the Hour," M.M. Dunlap; "Elements opposing unity in American
; Citizenship," Philmer -ay.
Mr. Day was awarded first position and Mr. Dunlap second. Mr. Day's production is given below and speaks for itself. We can say for him that there is no one in collegru who has a larger circle of friend 5 and he will be supported at Indianapolis as only the State University boys know how to dc. Mr. Dunlap presented a fine appearance and looked every inch an orator. Stewart and Fitch were expected i;o press close the successful contestants and they both had excellent productions. Mr. Fitch had a well written oration, full of practical thought, and his delivery was without doubt the best of the evening. By the majority of the audience and by several of the best judges of oratory m the city, he was marked first. Mr. Mason handled a difficult subject with much ability and his deliver v was graceful and affective. The Telefuonk has always desired to print the grades of the several judges but has never beea able to procure them. For several reasons it should be insisted that the grades be preserved and published that they may be examined and tested, and that the contestants may learn wherein their weakness consists. This is no idle precaution. The next morning after the contest, one of the judges in going over his figures found that he had made a mistake of three in Mr, Fitch's general average, giving him fourth rank when lie should have had third. This is a single instance, mistakes are liable to occur with all the judges. With all patriotic students the desire now is to see Mr. Day victorious at the State Contest, and to allow no private grievance to conflict with the University's wellfare. By carefully reading his speech, we are sure your confidence in hi ability to carry off the plumes at the State will be largely increased. The speech is as follows:
ELEMENTS OPPOSING IT.SITV IX AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. To the peaceful progress aud greatness of a nation, unity of purpose and harmony of action are as essential as to the individual and the family. The life and prosperity of no nation depends more upon this principle than that of the American Republic. Ever since the Mayflower landed upon the shores of New England, the watchword of the American people has been union. That was the word, that whispered through the forest primeval, from the snowclad cabins of the Pilgrim on the Bay to the tent of the Cavalier on the sunny banks of the J ames, uniting them against foreign encroachment and the ruin of their homes by the merciless Indian. Union bound them into a mighty power, that successfully resisted the oppression of the ungrateful mother country, and won from the Proud Mistress of the Sea the acknowledgement of their independence.
Anchored in the solid granite of Plymouth Rock, the gulden chain has been extended over the AlehanUs and unsevered by the sweepmgivers that lie in its path, has passed the land of oranges, and fastened upon the coral pillars of the Gulf. Link by link, the chain has grown toward the M'est, by purchase, aunexation and conquest, until it has embraced the Lone Star, and touching at the Golden Gate, has penetrated the rugged forests where the Columbia rolls his restless waters to the sea, and the Yukon sleeps in his icy home. Between these wide extremes, lies a region of, matchless wealth and beauty, which nature seems to have cherished as a home for the races. The music of the Father of Waters has touched the waiting ears of the people of every land, ana they have poured into the bounteous plains that lie upon his banks. The elements here brought together, were so many and varied, that it has been difficult to keep them united. Here have met and struggled all the active elements of human nature. Tins has been the common ground upon which the civilization of the mightiest nations
of earth have matched their strength.
been laws.
And here, as elsewhere, has
great
vermed one ot natures
This struggle has not yet wholly ceased. Though the curse of slave ry and the heresy of secession have been blotted out forever., many grave questions remain to disturb and check our happy development. The present condition of the foreign elements of our population, is one of the greatest disturbers of our unity. To the shores of America have flocked the oppressed of every nation. Our fertile soil, watered by beautiful rivers, our exhaustless mines teemir.g with precious and useful metals, have attracted the poor and the homeless with magic power. Our matchless system of free schools and benevolent institutions, our equal rights and democratc principles of government have offered knowledge and liberty to the miserable subjects of foreign kings. Italy, bleeding beneath the feet of Catholicism, has sent her suffering thousands. From the vine-clad hills of France and the forests of Germany, has come the poor peasant seeking a refuge from military despotism. From the dingy factories and dark mines of England and from the squalid tenements of weeping Ireland, have conut homeless millions to the land of promise. They have come to us, and we have received them as brothers, sharing with them the privileges which we enjoy. In return, they have given us the rich fruits of their labor. Our forests have felt the stroke of their axes. Guided by their well trained hands, our factories have produced fabrics equal in beauty and durability to those of boasting England and glory-loving France. Those who have come from the higher classes, have blessed us with rich stores of knowledge. They have done a noble work in the fields of literature, science and art. For all this we give them grateful credit. But they have done and are doing much which we cannot approve. When the foreigner
realizes the disadvantages of his ! iess and homeless exile the poor
surroundings, ana resolves to sees French peasants of Arcadia but it a home in the new world, he should was none the less an act of policy, lay aside his peculiar national ideas, i The physical nature of our country and become a true son of his adopted j win eVer produce diversity in our state. He should stand m side by j people, and we must always expect side, with our native born citizen, I foreign elements, strengthened by in the support of those principles, geograpical influences, to retain for which make our country an asylum a tiine their peculiar characters. It
and cities in California. In these localities, there is more or less test dency to put the control of labor, capital, ducation and politics int the hands of the foreign element Labor is so controlled by them that the interest of the native laborer are often materially injured. The thorough education of the children of natives is greatly retarded. The continued use of a foreign language, in competition with the English, begets a jargon, destitute of the force and beauty of any language. Public education finds, perhaps, its greatest enemy in the foreign ele-. ment which Rome uses to drive the Bible and Protestant teaching from the schools, and to divert public money to private or denominational institutions. The publication of foreign books and newspapers in these localities, is a powerful influence to perpetuate foroign ideas. The news of the day comes to them clothed in foreign idioms, and saturated with foreign principles, The land-leaguer of Ireland and the revolutionists of France pour their poison into the hearts of their kinsmen here, withdrawing them from interest in our government, and making it difficult to maintain peaceful relations abroad. In some of our large cities, the greatest obstacle to peaceful administration of government, has been found to lie in the opposition of foreign combinations. Our streets have been made the scenes of riot and bloodshed over questions relating entirely to foreign factions. They refuse to support a ticket, unless their peculiar nationality is fully represented, while the great questions and principles that should lie . near to the heart of every American citizen are wholly ignored. All this is contrary to tbTe spirit of ou government and destructive of the best interests of our people. That the heart of our nation may beat healthfully, and the fresh pure blood vitalize every flbre of our tissue, we must have a warm national spirit among our people. There must be no sectional prejudices marring or united progress. We must be one common brotherhood, having common interests, and owning allegiance to no other than the grand old flag that has waved ovei us in the battles of the past. Language and customs have always been powerful factors in fixing the boundaries of nations. So long as we can blend the elements entering into our citizenship, we have nothing to fear frpm the increase of population or territory, but the tendency of these elements to collect in certain localities and there to perpetuate their peculiar laws, customs and language, must ever be regarded as a positive evil. No nation has ever fully conquered another, or been able to retain its conquests, till in some way, the Rational peculiarities of the vaaquished, have been either eradicated or so modified, as to conform to its own. The strong arm of imperial Rome could not long keep under one code the idle pleasure-loving Italian and the restles, aggressive Auglo-Saxon. Cruel England has found it necessary to trample under foot tW Scotch and Irish national life, before she could in any true sense establish the United Kingdom. It
was toul wrong tnat drove into hope-
for the oppressed of the world. But
too often, after years of experience and privilege of American citizenship, he remains a foreigner in his tastes and habits. The hand that signs his naturalization, carries not with it the soul of the man. such is his devotion to the ideas of native nationality, under which he has been educated, that he is unwilling that the lines of race and speech shall ever be broken down. To a proper understanding of our laws and institutions, a knowledge of our language and literature is always essential. Yet the foreigner,
usually, insists that the greater part of the time, in the schools, where his children attend, shall be devoted to the teaching of his language and the history of his native institutions. The result of such a course is to inspire them with love for foreign ideas and a dislike for those of the country whose privileges he has come to enThe foreign elements of our population are not great enough to effect seriously the workings of our government, if they were evenly destributed. But in many localities immigrant interest is so light as not to be felt, while in others, it holds the balance of power, or is in a majority. The Swedish and Norwegian element has a powerful and growing influence in the northwest. The Irish element is so strong in New York city, as to secure the election of anyone it chooses to support. In parts of the south the French, Spaaish aud Negro elements far outnumber the genuine American population. The same is true, to a greater extent, of the Chinese element, in many counties
is not this to which we object; but
the disposition on the part of these people to perpetuate such distinctions, to resist those influences that would make them truly American, that would eradicate the ideas imbibed under a. despotic Governmeut, and inspire them with the broad and liberal principles peculiar to a. Republican Government. Instead of permitting European languages to be taught in our common schools for the benefit of foreign children, let them be thoroughly educated in the principles of our language and government- In this way they will become better citizens; they will benefit us and we them. We would not deny to our adopted! brother any of the privileges which we enjoy, but we would insist that the care and improvement of these priceless gifts of Providence to humanity, lie as near to his heart as ours. When his eye rests upon the banner of freedom, let emotions of patriotism and love for the states there represented flow forth with as deep and resistless a current as when the flag or his native land floated over him. Another promote r of discord, which has afflicted the world, has of late years found its way to our shores. Scarcely had the cloud of war and of mourning for our dead, passed away, when the gh&stly spirit of communism, crossing the Atlantic, breathed its poisonous breath upon the institutions of America. The fierce hand clutched at the vitals of our industries. Our great manufacturing centers aud lines of transportation stood silent and broken. An excited and ignorant rabble attacked capital.
