of Oregon Dragon It has never before been my may good for fOI fortune or tune to visit It and yet I 1 know your people lc I feel that I 1 hike thorn them and f bellove belIeve In them I 1 what you havo done I know the tho standard of ot conduct you have havo set sot and It Is Js the standard to 10 toward toward ward which I 1 believe all nil our people should strive AVIon I como come hero bore to 10 this state founded In the early forties by men tacit who came Caine across ucross the plains with empire In their heads while I 1 speak s to you ou I do not have to say that I preach Prel not of ot tho the life Ufo ot at ease case but the life lit of or effort not tho the life lito or lIr those who seek only safety but the life lICe of f those who exult In daring It If the tho time calls for tor daring luring men who flinch from no risk nIk from no effort If It only tho tim effort and the tho risk are to bo be justified justl ed by tho the prize at the end In citizenship I ask for or tho the qualities shown not only by tho the men of or tho the civil war nor but Lut by the tho men mun who found founded ed this state by the tho pioneers tho the men who canto came across deRent and mountain paths or after war up the seacoast the themen themen themen men who In this now nosY world as Os said Pitched new now states as n old oil world men pitched tents Wo Vo have havo no use In our

n nf need ed hore bore that type of or citizen who 1110 treat goes out to conquer und to work In the tho actual world as It Is We need high IdeAls deals but we wo need the power to make them effective In practical fashion While this nation has owed much to Its Constitution while much can ran bo be bolone lone done by hy the tue law and above aboe all by the tho honest lonest and fearless l administration of ot the time law yet It In the last analysis lIe he fate Cato of ot the tie nation wilt whit not depend upon the law aw but upon the tho character of ot the av average average citizen who works under stud and through the law If f we have got that type of character as typical of or our people we shall shah succeed The greatest republics of ot o the past have sj find and foundered on
