His car wss uncoupled from the southbound train at Auburn Junction, 20 miles north of hero and after he bad wade a brirf address to waiting crowd started east on the Baltimore and Ohio. At Auburn a state militia company wsa waiting at the station and fired a salute of three musketry volley. The President Mid: "Yesterday I made a tour through Indiana and enjoyed it ao immensely that I am sorry that 1 must leave you so suon. Lansing. Mich., Mar SI. President Roosevelts train arrived hers at 14 o'clock this morning. Perhaps nine tops in all were made by the train which carried the presidenUal party ia the run of something over two hour from Hillsdale ta Lansing. The President each time appeared upon the platform and made a lliile speech. He udd them how glad he was to sn and be among them, spoke la complimentary terms of the state of Michigan and said he was aura to be a better American for having routed through 1L Mr. Roosevelt was particularly felicitous in bis remarks to the veterans whom he spied in ths oroa'ds that pressed about his car. likewise to the fathers and mothers who hsd gathered with their children. At one point the President expressed regret that he could not remain In the state longer. Some one in tha crowd expreesad the hope that he might remain at the head of the government for another term. The Prest (tout smiled pleasantly in return tor the eonipllmeat. At several places along the route salutes were fired and the college boys of the Hillsdale college gave the college yell iu the Presidents honor ns ths train rolled out of the station. Th President's train arrived at the Lake Shore station, which is located upon ths river front fifty foet below the level of Michigan avenue. Eight companies at militia and the cavalry were ia line on Michigan avenue to keep hack the thousand! of people who crowded around for a glimpse of the chief executive aa he climbed tha stairs ay to the street, esoorted by Governor Warner and United States Senators Burrows and Smith. The President was driven up Michigan avenue to Washington avenue, the main thoroughfare, thence to Capitol avenue and to the main entrance to the atate capliol grounds. The thousands gathered there were held In check by n Hne id troops extending a fall square iu front of the building. Lined along one aide of the walk from the avenue to the capltoi tepn were five hundred boya from tha state Industrial school. In whom ths President took an especial Inter-m- t as he passed, speaking to a number individually. On the other aide of the walk waa a company of cadets from Flint and several hundred old aoldleru. Dulling his hat and bowing repeatedly, the President entered the capltoi where he held a reception In the executive parlors. After shaking hands with about a thousand persons, he stepped out upon the balcony of the cap-ltand fared 20,000 people gathered there In anticipation of a speech. The President spoke for about five minutes, making a special point of the pleasure It gave hlin to ere the boys from the Industrial school in their grey uniforms and with their wooden muskets. He spoke a few words of especial greeting to the veterans of the Civil and Spanish wars and tha militiamen, continuing; "1 served at Santiago bealde two Michigan' regular member at volunteers and I waa Instrumental in eeelng that the Michigan naval brigade taught the militia and the seamen of the ocean that men know how to anil and shoot upon the Inland waters. "One word of congratulation to the state n what Michigan has done for the marksmanship at th citlsena I dont have to tell yon that one at the prime ncorn aides Is that when a soldier shoots ha should be able to hit something. Encourage marksmanship in the national guard and give every chance to any body of private dti-sen- s to practice in the armories or elsewhere and give them all the oppor tunity that can be given them.

He eoun-trv that the railroad problem in this must be desk with unflinchingly, but with sanity and reason. There must be steady progress along the lines already laid down. He also mentioned some of bis own experiences as a member of tbe New York legislature. The President, In hie aperch before the crowd at the Agricultural college, Mid: Th Man Whe Works With Hie Hands. The fiftieth anniversary of th founding of this college is an event of national significance, for Michigan was the first state In the Vnkm to found this, the first agricultural college In America The nation is to be congratulated on the fact that the congress at Washington has repeatedly enacted laws designed to aid the several states in establishing and maintaining agricultural and mechanical colleges. 1 greet ail such college, through their representatives who have gathered here today, sod bid them Godspeed In their work. I no less heartily invoke success for the mcehanlcal and agricultural schools; and I wish to My that 1 hare heard particularly good report of the Minnesota Agricultural High school for the way in which It sends It graduates back to the farms to work si practical farmers. "As a people there Is nothing in which we take a jusler pride than our educational system. It is our boast that every boy or girl bas tbe chance to get a school training; and we feel it is a prime national duty to furnish this training free, because only thereby can we secure the proper type of citizenship In the average American. Our public schools and our colleges have done their work well, and there is no class of our citizens deserving of heartier praise than the men and women who tench In them. "Nevertheless, for at least a generation we have been waking to the knowledge that there must be additions) education beyond that provided in the public school aa it is managed today. Our school system has hither to been well-nigwholly lacking on the side of Industrial training which flta a man for the shop and the farm. Thia is n most serious lack, for no one ran look at the peoples of mankind m they stand at present with ' h UTAH. OGDEN. SATURDAY, out rralifing that Industrial training is one of tee most potent fsctors in national development. We of the a system United State must devk-under which each Individual citiaen shall be trained so as to be effective Individually ns aa ecouomic unit, and lit to be oigaulsed with his fellows so that he and they can work iu till-ciefMhlon together. This question is vital to our future progress. ud public attention should be focused upon It. Surely it is eminently tn accord with the principles at our democratic life that we should furnish the highest average industrial training for the ordinary skilled workman. But it ia n curious thing that in industrial training we have tended tu devote our energies to producing high grade men at the top rather than In the ranks. Our engineering schools, for Instance,' compare favorably with the best in Europe, whereas we have done nothing to equip tbe private soldiers of the Industrial army the methe carpentchanic, the er. Indeed, too often our schools train away from the shop and tbe forge; and thia fact, together with the abandonment of the old apprentice system, has resulted In such an absence of facilities for providing trained Journeymen that in many at our trades almost all the recruits among the workmen are foreigners. Surely this means that there must be same systematic method provided fur training jroqng men In the trade, and thnt this must be coordinated with the public school system. No Industrial school can tarn out e finished journeyman; but It can furnluh the material out of which a finished Journeyman eaa be made. Just as an engineering school furnishM th training which enable Its graduates to become engineers. "We bear a great deal of ths need of protecting our workmen from competition with pauper labor. 1 have very little fear of the competition of pauper labor. Tha nations with pauper labor are not the formidable industrial competitors of this country. What the American workingman has to fear la the competition of the highly skilled workingman of the countries of greatest Industrial efficiency. By the tariff and by onr Immigration tawa we ean always protect ourselves against ths competition of pauper labor her at hoipe; but whan we com Jrad for the markets of the world we can get no protection, and we shall then find that our moat formidable competitors are the nations In which there Is the moat highly developed buslm-ability, the most highly developed Industrial skill; and these are the qualities which we must ourselves devslop. "We have been fond as a nation of speaking of the dignity of labor, meaning thereby, manual labor. Personally I don't think that we begin to understand what a high place manual labor ahould take; and It never can take this high place unless It offers scope for the beet type of man. Wa have tended te regard education aa n matter of the head only, and the result Iu that a great many of our people, themselves ths sons of men whe worked with their hands, seem to think that they tIm la the world if thsy get into a position where they do no hard manual work whatever; where their bands will grow soft, and their , working clothes will be kept clean. gacl a conception It both false ud mischievous. There are, of course, kinds of labor where the work must be purely mental, and there are other kinds of labor where, under existing conditions, very little demand indeed la made upon the mind, though I am glad to My that 1 think th proportion of men engaged in this kind of work la dlmtn-takinBat in nay healthy community with the great solid qualities which alone make a really great nation, the bulk of the people should do work whioh makes demands upon both the body and the mind. Progress ran not permanently consist la the abandonment of physical labor, but In the development of phyulcal labor ao that It shall represent more and more the work of the trained mind in the trained body. To provide such training, to enoourage in every way the production of th men whom it alone can produce, la to show that aa a nation we have a true conception of tha dignity end importance of labor. The calling of tbe skilled tiller of the soil, the calling of the killed mechanic, ahould alike be recognised aa professions, Just as emphatically as the calling at lawyer, of doctor, of banker, merchant, or clerk. The printer, the electrical worker, the house painter, the foundry man, should be trained ns carefully as the stenographer or the drug clerk. They should be trained alike in head and in band. They should get over the Idea that to earn twelve dollars a week and call It "salary" la brtter than to earn twenty-fiv-e dollars a week and rail It "wages. The young man who has the courage and ability to refuse to enter the crowded field f the profeMlona and to take to constructive industry is almost sure of an ample reward in earnings, in health, In opportunity to marry early, and to establish a home with reasonable freedom from worry. We need the training, the dexterity, and Industrial Intelligence which can be best given in a good agricultural, or building, or or engravtextile, or ing, or mechanical school. It should be one of our prime ohjects to put r the mechanic, the who works in a constantly larger degree with his head, on a higher plane of efficiency and reward, ao aa to increase his effectiveness in the economic world, and therefore the dignity, the remuneration, and the power of bis position in the social world." To train boya and girls In merely literary accomplishments to the total exclusion of Industrial, manual training, and technical training tends to unfit them for Industrial work; and In real life most work is industrial. "The problem of furnishing craftsmen, dr rather Journeymen fitted in the end to become such, is not simple few problems . are simple In the actual process of their solution an.l much care and forethought and practical common sense will be needed, in order to work it out In a fairly satisfactory manner. It should appeal to all our citixens. I am glad that societies have already been formed to promote industrial education, and that their membership includes manufacturers and leaifcn of labor unions, educators and publicists, men of all conditions who are interested In education and In industry. It is such cooperation that offers most hope for satisfactory solution of the question as to what is the beet form of industrial school, as to the means by which it may be articulated wi'h the public school system, and as to tbe way to secure for the boys trained therein the opportu metal-worke- r, d watch-makin- wage-worke- well-traine- d JUNE 1, 1907. nity to acquire in the industries the practical skill which alone can make them finished journeymen. "There is but one person whose welfare is as vital to the welfare of the r whole country as is that of the who doea manual labor; and that is tbe tiller of the soil the farmer. If there la one lesson taught by history it is that the permanent great-ne- u of any state must ultimately depend more upon the character of it country population than upon anything else. X growth of cities, no growth of wealth can make up fur loss in eiflier th number e character of tbe farming population. In tbe United States more than in almost any other country we should realise this and should prize pur country population. When thia nation began its Independent existence it was as n nation of farmers. The towns were small and were for the most part mere aeaooeat trading and fishing ports. The chief industry of the country waa agriculture and the ordinary citiaen was in soma way connected with it. In every great crisis of the past a peculiar dependence has had to be placed upon the forming population; and this dependence baa hitherto been justified. But it cannot be Justified la the future if agriculture is permitted to sink is the scale as compared with other employments. We can not afford to lose that preeminently typical American, the former who owns his own farm. "Yet It would be idle to deny thnt in the last half century there has been in the eastern half of our country a falling off In ths relative condition of th tlllera at the soil, although signs are multiplying that the nation has waked up to the danger and la preparing to grapple effectively with it. East of the Mississippi and north at th Ohio and the Potomac there ha been on the whole an actual shrinking in the number of the farming population since th civil war. In the atatee of thia section there has been a growth of population in some aa enormous growth but tb growth has taken place in the cities, and especially u the larger cities. This has been due to certain economic factors, such m tb extension of railroads, the development at maohlnary, and th openings for Industrial success afforded by tha unprecedented growth of dtlea. Tha increased facility . of communication has resulted in th withdrawal from rural communities of moat of tha small, widely distributed manufacturing and commercial opera-tion- a of former times, and the substitution therefor at the centralised commercial and manufacturing Industries of tha cities. "Tha chief offset of the various tendencies which have told against tha farm has hitherto come in the rise of the physical sciences and their application to agricultural practices or to the rendering of country conditions mor easy and pleasant But these countervailing forces are aa yet la their infancy. As Compared with a few decades ago, the social or community life of country people in the Met compares less well than It formerly did with that of the dwellers in cities. Many communities have lost their social coherence, their sense of community Interest- - In such communities the country church, for instance, hu gone backward both as a social and a religious factor. Now, we oan not toe strongly Insist upon th fact that It Is quite aa unfortunate to have any social aa any econo-mlfalling off. It would be a calamity to hava our forma oocupied by a lower type of people than the hardworking, Independent, and essentially manly and womanly men and women who have hitherto constituted the most typically American, and on the whole the most valuable element in our entire nation. Ambitious native-boryoung men and women wbo now tend away from the farm must be brought back to It, and, therefore, they must have social as well as economic opportunities. Everything should be done to enoourage the growth in the open fanning country at such institutional and social movements as will meet the demand of the best type at fanners. There should be libraries, amenably halls, social organisations of all kinds. Tbs school building and the teacher In the school building should, throughout the country districts, be of the very highest type, able to fit the boys and girls not merely to live In, but thoroughly to enjoy and to make the moat of the country. The country church must be revived. AH kinds of agencies, from rural free delivery to the bicycle end tbe telephone, should be utilized to tbe utmost; good road should be favored; errythlng should he don to make it easier for the farmer to lend the most active and effective Intellectual, political, and economic life. "There are region of large extent where all this, or most of this, ha already been realised; and while this Is perhaps especially true of great tract of farming country west of the Mississippi, with some of which I have a fairly Intimate personal knowledge, It is no. leM true of other great tracts of country east of the Mississippi. In these regions the church and the school flourish as never before; there la a more successful tnd more varied farming industry; the social advantages and opportunities are greater than evr before; life Is fuller, happier, more uueful: and though the work is more effective than ever, and in a way quite au hard, it Is carried on ao as to give more leisure. scope for well-use-d wage-worke- SHOFFOR men t has reached a degree of excellence seldom attuned in shoe making.
