boar a careful reading. If President Gar
field will practico os efficiently os he writes,
?tba government Vf ill bo equal to tho wishes
of the wost exacting of all parties. Ho
deals with tho exciting question of the day,
to wit: Negro suffrage, freedom of oleotions,
Mormonism, tho ourreuoy and tho publio
debt, with the olear V?B?OO of a statesman.
Ho looks to tho future with tho hope that
seotional?8m aud tho struggles of tho poot
moy bo buried in tho busy activities of tho
people, looking to tho development of tho
country io its manufacturing, agricultural,
commercial and educational interests.
The following is the address:
FELLOW CITIZENS: Wo stand today
upon sn eminence which overlooks a hun
dred years of national life--a oontury crowded
with perils but crowned with tho triumphs
of liberty and law. lioforo continuing tho
onward marou, lot us pauso on this hoight
for a moment to strengthen our faith and
renew our hopo by o glauco at tho pathway
along which our pooplo bavo traveled, lt
is now tinco days moro than a hundred
years since tho adoption of tho first written
constitution of tho United Stales-tho
attioles of confederation and perpetual un
ion. Tho new republic was theo beset
with danger on every haod. lt had not
conquered a placo in tho family of nations.
Tho decisivo battlo of tho war for indepen
dence, whoso ccntcnuir.l anniversary will
soon bo gratefully celebrated at Yorktown,
had not yet been fought. The colonists were
struggling not only against the armies of a
great nation but against tho Bottled opinion
of mankind, for the world did not theo be
lieve that tho supremo authority of govern
ment could bo safely entrusted to tho
guardianship of tho pcoplo themselves.
We cannot over estimate tho fervent love
of liborty, tho intlligcooo, tho courago and
the saving common sonso with which our
fathers made the groat, experiment of self
goveromoot. Whoo thoy found, after a
short trial, that a confederacy of Staten was
too weak to meet tho necessities of a vigor
ous and expanding republic, thoo they
boldly set it asido and in its stead eatab?
lishod a national union iounded directly
. . upon tho will ot tho pcoplo, endowed with
full powers of self-preservation and with
ample authority for the accomplishment of
its great objects. Under the Constitution
tho boundaries of freedom havo been on
iarged, the foundations of order and peaoo
have been strengthened and tho growth of
our people in all tho better clements of
national lifo has indicated tho wisdom of
the founders and given now hopo to their
dcoendants. Under this Constitution our
pcoplo long ago made themselves safe
against danger from without and scoured
for tho mariners and flag equality of rights
on all the BOOB. Under this Constitution
twenty five Statos have boon added to the
Union, with constitutions and laws framed
and enforoed by their owu oitizens to soourc
tho manifold blessings of looal self-govern
ment. Tho jurisdiction of this Constitu
tion now covers nu orca fifty times groote]
than that of tho original States and i
population twenty times greater than thal
of 1780.
? supreme trial of tho Constitution
came at last under tho tremendous pressure
of a oivil war. We ourselves are witnessci
that the Union emerged from tho flood enc
fixe of that conflict purified and msd<
stronger for all tho beneficent purposes o
good government.
And now, at tho close of this first cen
tury of growth, with tho inspirations of itt
history io their hearts, our pcoplo hav<
Jotely reviewed thc condition of tho notion
passed judgment upon tho conduot ant
opinions of tho political parties,' 'and hav<
registered their will concerning tho futur
administration of the government. Ti
interpret nod to exooute that will in aocord
danoo with the Constitution is the para
mount duty of tho Executive. Even fron
this brief review it is manifest that th
nation is resolutely faoing to the front, rc
solved to employ its boat energies i
developing the great possibilities of th
futuro, preserving whatever bas bee
gained to liberty and good govern men
during tho oentury. Our pcoplo aro doter
mined to leavo behind them all thos
. bitter controvenicg concerning things wbio!
Lave been irrevooably settled, aod th
further discussion of whieh oan only sti
up strife and delay tho onward maroh.
Tho aupremaoy of the nation and il
laws should be no longer the subject o
debate. That discussion, which for half
oontury threatened the existonoe of th
lit Union, was oloscd at last in tho high oom
j * of war by a dooroo from wbioh there is n
' appeal. That constitution and the law
"Ut mado in purauanoo thereof are and shal
il il continue to be tho spprome law of tho land
Peri binding aliko upon tho States and people
* This dooroo doos not disturb the autborit
\v l of the States nor intefcro with any of thei
this h vieccftsary tights of looal self-government
h?sb) bot it does fix and establish tho permsnen
pot af, supremacy'of tho Union. Thc willoi th
\ff.?p nation speaking with the vpico of battl
j aod through tho amended constitution ba
Vf fulfilled tho-great promiuo of 1776, by prc
churning ?'liberty throughout the land to o

stitution of 1780. No thoughtful man can
fail to approoiate beneficent effect upon our
institut iona and people. It has freed us
from the perpetual danger of war and
dissolution, lt has added immensely to
th? moral and industrial forsos of our peo
ple it bas liberated tho master as well es
the slave from a rolatioo which wronged
and oofeebled both. It has surrendered to
their own guardianship tho manhood of
more than 6,000,000 of people and hes
opoued to on oh one of them a career of free
dom sod usefulness. It bas given a now
inspiration to the power of self-help io
both raocs. By masing labor more honor *
able to one and moro.necessary to the other
tHo Influence of this forco will grow greater
and bear rioher fruits with ooiniug years.
No doubt this great ohange hes caused
serions disturbanoo to our Southern com
I munition. This is to bo deplored, though
I it wnp, perhaps, unavoidable; but those who
resisted tho ohange should remember that
under our institutions thoro WOB no middle
ground fer tho negro between slavery and
equal oitizooBhip. There oan bo no per
manent disfranchised' peasantry in the
United States. Freedom oan never yield
its fullness of blessings so long as thc law or
its administration plaoes the smallest' ob
stacles tn tho pathway of any virtuous
citizen.
The emancipated raco has already made
remarkable progress! With unquestioning
devotion to the Union, with a pationoo and
gentleness not born of fear, thoy hnvo fol
lowed the light ns Qod gavo thom to seo light.
Thoy aro rapidly laying tho material foun
dations of self-support, widening the circle
of intolligonco and boginning to enjoy tho
blessings that gather around tho homes of
tho industrial poor. Thoy deserve tho gen -
erous support of all good mon. So fur as
my authority can lawfully extend they shall
enjoy the full and equal protection of tho
Constitution. Their full and froo enjoyment
of equal sutTrngo is still in question, and a
frnnk statement of tho issue in tho main will
aid the solution. It is alleged that in ninny
communities negro oitlzons are practically
donied tho freedom of tho ballot, In so far
as tho truth of this allegation IR admitted it
is answered that in many placos honest looul
government is impossible if tho mass of un
educated negroes are allowed to voto. These
aro grave allegations. So fur ns tho lattor
ia true, it is tho only palliation that can bo
offered for opposing tho freedom of tho ballot
Bad looa) government is certainly u great
ovil which ought to bo provontcd, but to vio
late tho freedom and sanctity of tho sufl?ngo
is moro than an evil; it is cri mo whioh if
persisted in will destroy tho government
itself. Suicide is not a remedy. If in other
lands it bo high treason to compass tho dcuth
of the king it should bo counted no loss a
orimo hero to stranglo our sovereign powor
and stifle its voice
It has been said that unsettlod questions
have no pity for the repose of nation H. It
should bo said with tho utmost emphasis that
this quoetion of suffrage will never givo re -
poso or safety to the Stales or tho nation
until each within its own jurisdiction makes
and keeps the ballot free und pure by tho
Strong sanction of tho law.
But the danger whioh arises from Igno
rance in the votor cannot bo denied. It
covers a field far wider than that of negro
suffrage and tho present condition of that
race. It is a danger that lurks and hides in
tho sources and fountains of power in every
Stato. Wo havo no standard by which tc
measure thc disaster that may bo brought
upon os by ignorance and vico in the citizonr
when joined to corruption and fraud in thc
suffrage The voters of tho Union, whi
make and anmako Constitutions, und upon
whose will hangs the destinies of our gov
ernment, con transmit their supromo au
thority to no successors HAVO tho coniinf
generation of voters, who aro the solo heir
of their sovereign power. If that genemtior
comes to ?ts inheritance blinded by ignornnci
and corrupted by vice, tho fall of tho Repub
lie will bo certain and remediless. Th
census hus already sounded tho alarm in np
palling figures, whioh mark how dangcrousl
high tho lido of illiteracy has risen ninon
our voters und their children.
To tho South this question is of stiprem
importance But tho responsibility for tb
existe-neo of slavery did not rest upon th
South alone: tho nation itself is rcsponsibl
for tho extension of suffrogo, and is undi
special obligations to aid in removing tl
illiteracy which it hus added to tho finatic
population. For tho North and the ?Soot
nliko thoro is but ono remedy: All tho Cor
stitutional powor of the nation and of tl
States and all tho volunteer forces of tl
people should bo submitted to mcot this dungi
by tho saving influence of universal educe
timi. It ia tho high privilege and snort
dut;y of those now living to educnto tho
successors and fit them hy intelligence ar
virtue for the inheritance which awaits thoi
In thia benoSeont work scotions and rac
should bo forgotten and partisanship shun
bo unknown. Let our people find a nc
moaning in thc Divino oraclo which dcolur
that "a little child shall load thom." for ot
little children will soon control thc destino
of the Republic.
Countrymen, wo do not now differ in o
judgment concerning tho controversies of t
past generation, and fifty yearn heneo o
children will not be divided in their o pinto
concom?ng our controversies. They w
surely bless their fathers and their fattie
Qod that the Union waa preserved, that si
vory was overthrown and that both races wc
mudo equal before the law.
We may hasten or we may retard, but 1
cannot provent final reconstruction Is it r
possible for us to mnko a truco with tit
by anticipating and accepting its inovital
verdiot?
Enterprises of the highest importance
our moral and material well being invito a
sffer ample scope for tho employment of o
best powers. Lot all our people, leaving I
hind thom the battle fields of dead issn
move forward and in tho strength of tibet
and a restored Union win the grandor viol
rios of pence.
The prisperlty whioh now provnils
without parallel in our history. Fruit
BCieons have dono much to secure it, t
tfioy have not doner it nil. Tho presorvatl
of tho public cre'dit and tho resumption
spooio payments so successfully begun by t
administration of my predecessors lins cc
bled oar people (o secure the blessings which
tho sermon brought, By the experionoe of
commercial nations in all ngos it has beon
found that gold and silver otford the only
safo foundation for a monetary system.
Confusion has recently been created by a
variation in tho relative value of tho two, but
? confidently believe that ?. arrangement s cao
be made between the leading 'commercial
nations whioh will seoure tba g?n?ral -uso .of
both metals.
Con gre es should provide thal the compul
sory coinage of eilvor now required by law
may uot disturb our monetary system by
driving either metal out of circulation. If
possible 8uob an adjustment should bo mndo
that tho purchasing power ot ovory coined
dollar will bo exactly, equal to its debt
paying powor in ail of tho markets of the
world.
The chief duty of tho national govornmont
in connection with tho ou rion cy of tho coun
try is to coin money and declare its value.
Grave doubts have boen entertained whether
Congress is authorized by tho Constitution
to mateo nny form of pnper money n logul
tondor. Tho present issuo of United States
notes bas boon sustained by tho necessities of
tho war, but such paper should dopend for
its valuo and currency upon its convenience
in uso now, its prompt redemption in coin
at thc will of bolder, and not upon its com?
pulsory circulation. Thcuo cotos aro not
money, but promises to pay money.
Ii holders demand it tho premiso should bc
kept.
Tho refunding of tho national debt at a
lowor rato of interest should bo accomplished
without compelling tho withdrawal of the
national bank notes and tbua disturbing tho
business of the country. 1 venture to refer
to the position I have occupied on finunoiul
questions during a long service in Congross,
and to say that timo and oxporienco have
strengthened tho opinions I bavo so often
expressed on these subjects. Tho finances
of tho govornmont ?hall suffer no detriment
which it may bo possible for my administra
tion to prevent.
Tho interests of agriculture deserve moro
(rom tho govornmont than they have yet
roeoived. Tho farms of tho United States
dlord homes and employment for inure than
me half of our people and furnish mnoh tho
largest parts of our exports. As tho gov?
>rnment lights our const for tho protection of
narines and tho benefit of commerce, so it
should givo to tho tillers of the soil tho
jest lights of prnotioal science and cxporin
?nco.
Our manufactories aro rapidly making us
ndepondent and are proving to capital nnd
abor now und nro?table fields of employment
L'hoir steady and healthy growth should still
>o maintained.
Our lucilities for transportation should be
u'omotcd by tho continued improvement ol
ur harbors and thc grout interior wator
rays and by tho incrcaso of our tonnago on
he ocean. Tho development of tho world's
ommcrcc has lcd tonn urgent demand foi
hortening the grcnt sen voyage around Cape
lorn by constructing ship canals or railway?
.cross thc isthmus which unites tho twe
'inlincnts. Various plans to this end havt
icon suggested and will need considorutinn
tut none of them have been sufficiently ma'
tired to warrant thc United States in extend
ng pecuniary ti id. The suhjeot, however
8 ono which will immediately engage tin
mention of thc government with now and i
borough protection to commercial interests
rYowill urge no narrow policy nor seek po
Miliar or excessive privileges in any commet
mil route, but, in tho language of my prude
lesser, I bcliovo it to be the duty and th
'ight of the United States to assert an
naintain such supervision and aulh iii
ivor any inter-occanic canal across th
st h m us that connects North and Sout
America as will protect our national in
[crest.
Tho Cnnst'ituti m guarantees absolute rt
ligious freedom. Congress is prohibited frill
making any law respecting nn estublishmcr
if religion or forbidding tho free oxeroh
thereof. Tho Territories of the Unite
States oro subject to tho direct legisla!h
Authority of Congress, and heneo tho goner
government is responsible foi any vioiuth
of tho Constitution in any of them. It i
therefore, a reproach to tho government th
in the most populous of our cilios tho co
at it ut ional guarantee is not enjoyed hy tl
people and thc authority of Congress is set
naught. Tho Mormon Church nut on
offends tho moral sense of mankind I
sanctioning poligauty, but prevents tho a
ministration of justico through tho ordiun
instrumentalities of the law. In my jud
incut it is the duty of Congress, while rt
peeling to tho uttermost ibo cmsciontio
conviction nnd religious scruples of eve
citizen, to prohibit within its jurisdiction
criminal practices and principally (hat ch
of them which destiny tho family relati
nnd endanger social ordor. Nor oun a
ecclesiastical organization he safely pi
mined to usurp in a smaller 'degree t
functions und powers of tho national govci
mont.
Tho civil servies cnn never bo plaoed on
satisfactory basis until ii ia regulated by h
for tho good nf tho service itself, for tho p
tcotion of those who aro entrusted with I
appointing powor against the waste of ti
und obstruction tu tho public business cum
by inordinate pressure for placo, and for I
protection of incumbents Against intrig
nnd wrong. I shall ut tho proper lime i
Congres to fix tho tenure of tho mi
officers for tho sevorai executive dcpnrtmo
and prescribo tho grounds upon whioh
mov?is shall bo made during tho tenure
whioh incumbents have boon appointed.
Finally, coting always within tho nuth
?ty and limitations of tho Constitution,
vnding neither tho rights of tho States
tho resorved rights of tho pooplo, it will
tho purpose of my administration to mu
tain tho authority of tho nation, and in
places within its jurisdiction to en fuco o
lionoo to nil tho laws of the Union in
interest of tho people, to demand a fi
economy in all expenditures nf the gove
tnent and to requiro honest and faithful i
?ice of all oxocutivo officers, remember
that the offices wore created not tor
ionofit of tho incumbents or their support
mt for the service of thc government.
And now, follow citizens, I cm about
issuroe tho great trust which you have co
BM ?i a aa SM
milted to my bando. I appeal to you for
that oornest and thoughtful anpport which
make this government in fuot, a? it is In law,
a government Of the people. I shall greatly
rely upon the wisdom and patriotism of
Congress and of those who may shore with
no tho responsibilities and dutios of admin
istration. And, above all, upon our efforts
to promote the welfare of this great people
and their government I reverently invoke
tho support and blessings of the Almighty
