L8 Iis nDJdl III chairman Colonel i Sells and ho introduced intro-duced to tie audience General Beaver Tho General began by Baying that it MIH not usual at a camp lire to have ts lllll 1tI speeches and addresses but ho felt that before an audience like tho one assembled assem-bled tho ordinary songs and storytelling would be entirely inappropriate lie said that ho found himself In strange surroundings sur-roundings I hemmed I Ulr in 1fb the hills and i mountains and with tho great lake at the very door of the city I was struck when I saw the banner across the front of this hall Our Loyal People Welcome Their Countrys Veterans The speaker said that it would bo a singular thing to see in any other city of this Republic such an implication as is contained in those words I am not hero to say and I do not Bay that there is hi that sentence even an implication of a division of classes here I do not say it is eojxml God forbid that it should bo so but if it be so there is room hero for the exercise of the power and might of this great Republic room for the exercise of its powers both legislative legis-lative and judicial If it bo so I say there is not a comrade hero who does not feel his heart beat tonight as ho has not felt it beat for twenty years before Loud applause ap-plause A feeling of loyalty comes over us as we gaze upon the stars and stripes and that very loyalty is tho foundation upon which tho structure of tho Grand Army has been reared Now I say if there bo disloyalty anywhere if there be a State or a number of States who single themselves out und defy the Government unv man who has over worn the blue will rise up to enforce tho law us declared valid by tits Supremo Court of tho Nation And they will not be alone in this Tho boys who wore the gray who submitted a question to the sword and when defeated were re signed to tho result they will rise up with us and help enforce the laws Any institution or corporation that raises itself it-self above the State must bo made to obey the law The talk tonight has been too serious for such an occasion but when I camo hero and found my comrades who aro icpresonting and have represented tho Government standing hero alone I wanted to assure them that they do not stand alone and that there ate tlIOM who will take them by the hand and help them The great loyal heart of the Nation behind you and it beats as true to night unit did twentyflvo yearn ago Hut perhaps I have said enough I could not say less and I do not wish to say more I tam very much pleased with my visit to your beautiful city No man could tome hero with a heart und a mind who could not find ample room for reflection and who could go away without an impression in his heart that will lost the rest of his days ApplulIM
