and of making the Conestoga
THE "WISSAHIC'UON OF LAXOASTKIt.
Yeung Ladles and Gentlemen: Thore Is
always eloquenco in an occasion. AVerds
spoken fitly en special occasions ure likely
te borrow mere from the occasion than
they lend te It. I am here at this time te
take advantage of the opportunity of your
celebrating Arber Day te impress en your
minds the tiltlinate practical outcemoof the
semi-annual observance of this day, ae far,
as the most general benefit of this particu
lar community is concerned, viz. : a beau
tiful public park along the banks of the
Conestoga; in ethor words, our having n
Wissahickon in Laucaster.
This is the age of utility. Peeple have
no time for mere sentimental theorizing.
Use measures worth. Anything that is of
no real, actual use is of no account. If I
mlgtitdlgiess a little from my specific sub
ject te apply this law te your Ktudont-llfe
as pupils of this school, I would omphusize
the fact se strongly Insisted upon by ene
who was himself a prominent educator,
that even knewledge is noexcoption te
this rule. Intelligence is for use, net sim
ply for ornament. Like the mauna of old,
It will net keep. The scboelmon of the
middle age were great students, but net
Sreat men. He Is-most who does most.
Very adornment and ndvantage of educa
tion Is already finding Its day of judgment.
Already the millions are every where ask
ing. What is the use of learning? Poeplo
of learning must communlcate Its benefits
te ethers.' Hoarded treasures invite moth
and rust. We save only what we glve
away. Te merely have knowledge may
fatigue us and even sadden us, but when
we make it the servitor of our fellowmen,
we have ascertained its worth. It is a
luxbry te learn, but it cannot be compared
with the luxury of communicating this
knowledge.
We need net waste any tears ever what
the world calls Idle talent, idle learning.
Keal talent, real learning, cannot be idle.
Its very instinct is te be active. This Is an
absolute necesslty of its oxistenco. It Js net
a reservoir, but a fountain. Any ene who
does nothing is nethinir. Any ene who has
nothing Important te glve has nothing im im
Dertant te keen.
What lessen is taught niore plainly than
this by the whole arboreal creation?
" Every tree that bringelh net forth geed
fruit Is hewn down and cast into the fire.
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall knew
them." This is the law always the law
everywhere the law.
Forestry associations are ergauized net
simply te enjey listening te poetical essays
en the beauty and worth of tree:, but te
effect the planting of new groves and te
Erevent the destruction of theso we new
Hve. "lit Is an open secret that the primary
object of the recent institution of a local
forestry association In this city Is n pros
pective Lancaster park net se remotely
prospectlvo either. A vigorous and judi
cious commltteo has already been appointed
te survey the meadows and woodlands
along the banks of our nicturesnue stream.
and ascertaln hew the pleasure and profit
of constant access te the enjoyment of the
weeds and the water may he put within
universal reach.
Kvery Arber Day from this time forth,
without any exception, must agitate ami
re-agltate and ro-reagltate this ene hame
sentiment until it beeomesaiiaccompllshed
fact. Of course It Is only an Idea as yet,
but the steam engine, the telegraph, the
electric light, every new feature of civili
zation, was only nn Men at first. There
must be sentiment before anything can
materialize; and conversely, fust aa seen
as we can areuse n strong publle sentiment
in favor of a city park, It will be but a little
whlieere its walks and drives mid lawns
will begin te evolve.
One- or the principal niirseries of this
public seutimcut is the high school. If
the young, men and ladies who goeut from
these halls Inte oil the avenues of L'ltb.cn-
(l ship, te mould .the thinking and elevnte
the tastes of theso with whom they coma
in contact, were thoroughly enthused en
thp subject of a publle park, they would
constitute a tremendous factor in the selu
Hen of the problem. IUkotesoon young
tusu beginning already iu his student days
te consider iu what ways he may make his
lnflueuce felt for the goueral geed when
he shall attain his full maturity. It helps
1 te broaden and ennoble the development
of hi character te have generous and
high Ideals. One field which will atl'erd
scope for everybody here te-dav, te here
after cultivate and exercise that publle
spirit which is an essential element In u
successful Hie, is just this very thing In
which I have come te try te stir up your
Interest.
Thiiikef thocxcelleut natuial facilities
we have for a park, which have heretofore
100.
been left unimproved I Who of us has ever
steed en the brew of the hill In the Wood
ward cemetery, and surveyed the graceful
serpentine course of the stream aa it winds
Its silvery way through field and wood
land without being enchanted by the lovely
prospect? What city has had an easier task
In the construction of a park, en account of
se much belngal ready done before a shovel shevel
ful of sand is added or taken away, than
Lancaster would have? And what eltv
could be prouder of Its park when finished
than ours? Sometimes I find myself
imagining a spacious, well-shaded, eight
mile boulevard along the water's edge, en
both sides of the stream, from the feet of
Seuth Queen street te the New Helland
pike, occasionally rising te a promontory
commanding a superb panorama t then
sinking bacK te the level with its many
varied curves and angles. Why should
this be merely visionary? Why should
we net set te work and actualize it at
ence? The new electric street cars will
furnish abundant transportation. The
Conestoga ia fortunately net harnessed
bv unilshllv foreesavd furnaces, and
factories and foundries, as sre most bodies
of Water in the vicinity of cities, which
"would Interfere with the construction of a
pleasure ground. The park would boon been
Joyed alike by young and old, by pedes
trians and persons In equipages. Just as I
believe that architecture is a clvllizer, se
tee am I convinced that the Influence of a
city park would be for the geed of the com
munity in all its humane Interests, tending
te expand our scope and generosity
of mind and heart. Wealthy citizens
would rotneinbor it among their lega
cies and bequests, as a permanent me
morial. I am heartily in favor of a
Wissahickon In Lancaster, and ei begin
ning It at ence. If this sentiment can be
inade general, the question is settled.
Every ene of us can help te some extent te
make it general. The Beading railroad
terminal in Philadelphia is ene among
many ovldences that might be cited, te at
test the fact that whatover the great major
ity of the poeplo In any community wants
Is sure te come, no matter hew formidable
be the obstacles that stand In the way.
Hew many of us here te-day are heartily
In favor of a publle park lu Laucaster, and
willing te de all we can te bring It about?
All who are, will sltrnlfy their desire and
their resolve by saying "Aye!"
RKMAKKS I1V MISS FATMIXIE.
We are met tofiethor te celebrate our
Arber Day ence mere, and if, In what I
shall say, 1 sneak mere of him who stand
ing en tula platform five years age intro
duced Arber Day Inte this state, than of
the festival lie then Inaugurated, you will.
I knew, forgive me. Fer we are bound
together by many ties the world without
and the world within, the world of nature
and the world of man ; and as the years go
by these ties grew mere numerous and
stronger.
Hew can we ever meet en Arber Day
again and net think of Dr. Higbee? As if
he steed in our midst I cansoe him new,
the geed, great man I I seem te hear his
voice take up his old beleved theme the
le ve of Nature Hew olequont he grew ns
he talked en of waving grass and winding
stream, of robins' song and insects' drowsy
hum I He bad the artist's oye, the poet's
thought, the singer's sense of melody when
ence he started out te tell of nature's beau beau boau
ties. Be glad, sons and daughters of Lancaster,
that you have had the chance that we
would glve se much te have again, If only
for a brtef half-hour of hearing ene se
rich In thought, se sweet In speech, se full
of fresh suggestien,'take up this thome and
lay It out bofbre you. What you de net
realize new you may knew hereafter, and
out of the fullness of Ids heart as well as
out of the oxperionco of his life he speke te
you. In the yours te coine, when treubles
gather, mid lile grows hard, when strength
beglns te fail and nerves are worn and un
strung; thou, if you have loved Nature
through all as-he did, if you have sought
her companionship for solace, if you have
kept uear te her heart and never lest the
thrill, or missed the charm her presence
brinies, then indoed will she be te you as'
she was te him a com Tort and a Jey. She
will glve back te you, If only brleily and
like u dream, a breath of the youthful Jey
of oxlsteuco, a snatch of the swect fresh
ness of the early days. Just ns spring
brings te us year by year even te the
very last sotnething UUe
' The touch of a vanished hand
And the sound of a voice that Is still."
Then let me say te you in my way wlint
Dr. Higbee said te you in his: Love all
this fair fresh earth of ours our home for
a little while. Seek te set the green things
growing whero you can. Dcatity is se
comforting a presence, se uplifting a power,
that we cannot alfbrd te miss it any where.
Plant flowers, sew seeds, set out trees.
Water and watch theso living, growing
things as though they knew and loved you,
ami you shall have your rewurd In the
beauty and fragrance, the grace and the
comfort, they shall add te the earth evcu
though you be net here te feel or knew It.
Let It be a' part of your creed te leave the
world se much richer and sweeter because
you once lived In It.
Then, should veu stay till you are old,
as did our friend, the doctor, you will feel
and knew as he did that :
" Nature never did betrav
The heart that loved her ; 'Us her privilege.
Thre' all the years of this our life, te lend
Frem Jey te Jey ; for she can se Inform
The mind that Is within us, se Imprtss
Wlthqulctneu and beauty, that neither evil
tongues,
llaMi Judgments, nor sneers of selfish men.
Ner greetings where no kindness Ik; nor all
The dreary Intercourse of dally life,
Shall o'er nrevnll against us, or disturb ,
Our cheerful faith that all which we beheld
Is full of blessing."
" HONOR TO WnOM HONOR. "
Mr. McCaskey, In nn address romarkable
for eloquenco and interest, displayed Dr.
Uigbee's enthusiastic love of nature. He
said : Of the ten poorest men In Laucaster
probably five live in big houses and have a
geed bank account. They de net suspect
their hopcless poverty ; but the shrewd
'world makes its own comment while they
llve and when they ure goue. Few human
hearts, if any, care whether they live or
dle. Hut when a geed man gees beyond,
whose life has been ene round of loving
bonefactlon, whose smlle has been sun
shine because "his heart has had a leek
southward te the whoie neon of nature,"
whose thoughts have dwelt much upon
eternal things, and whose dcslre has been
only for whatsoever Is true, honest, just,
pure, levely and of geed report, what a
contrast Is presented 1 Then poverty nnd
sham stand forth revealed, and the dignity
of man, "made In the image of Ged," ih
ence mero vindicated.
It Is geed te knew geed men, te be near
a man who has been a great blessing te
his fellows. We have been very near te
such a mail and I would net have you for
getful of your great privilege. One of the
best things this man ever (lid was te Intro Intre Intro
ducetho observance of Arber Day into the
great state of Pennsylvania, with Its cumu
lative benefits through the years and, I
trust, through the generations. Other
men gave him their generous aid in this
gre.it work, but the enduring honor of
being our Arber Day state suorlutendcnt
orpuuiie instruction uoieugs ie mm aione,
and as such he will eoutinue te be grate
fully recognized in the years te ceme. Hut
I wish new te speak of Dr. iligbee lu a
relation very dilferent from this.
What a delight he took iu his garden I
The first signs of spring set him te digging
and planting, and he was always among
the first with his early vegetables. His
pleasure was complcte te bee them grew,
aud te furnish thorn fur the enjeyment of
ntliers. It was no uncommon sight te soe
him, during u warm spring rain, walking
about in the garden under an umbrella,
poking iu the ground te soe whether the
beans were sprouting, and making the
growth of the plants-, "fairly leaping out of
the ground," ns housed te say and "I
think I can see them growing." If thore
was danger of a frost and he was rarely
deceived In his weather prognostications
he would co out at night with a lauteru,
and carefully protect the tender snreutliugs
with paporer beards against the killing
cold.
His yard had nothing artificial about It,
anil yet everywhere could 1)0 noticed the
evidence of ilnllagging care bestowed upon
It. Trees, llowers a magnificent bed of
choice reses shrubs and vines were there,
nourishing under the watchful care which
be gave them. He was sure te discover
the lirrt opening blossom and bring It with
biuniiti'T countenance te grace the break
fast lable.
The first notes of the spring songsters
would strike bis quick car and send him
hurrying forth te greet them. He had a
lender regard for the birds, and could tell I
mem every one, Knew weir uBvits, vtueiv
thev nested, etc There waa an old tree-In
the yard, rapidly falling Inte decay, and an
eyesore te his cultivated taste, but M would
net cut It down because It waa the faverlts
nesting place of a Baltimore oriole, for
whose return he eagerly looked at the
opening of every summer. He took out a
brick from under his library window that
a wren might be tempted te make It nest
there, and for years this sheltered retreat
was occupied by the little bird. This nest
was te htm an object of very great interest.
Year after year he looked for the coming
of the wren and welcomed It gladly. He
put up small boxes all about In suitable
places for the convenience of his little
feathered neighbors and acquaintance: and
they went te housekeeping everywhere as
If they appreciated his goodwill and felt
themselves safe under his protection. The
robin, the oriole, and the red-winged tana
ger were also among his especial favorites,
and every spring-tlme he watched for the
return of these and ether birds with keen
expectancy.
The work in his grounds at Morcersburg
was all done by himself. His flower-beds
were his delight. His roses, already re
ferred te, were chosen for beauty of con
trast and fragrance. He seemed nover hap
pier then when among them, or when
gathering them te adorn the table or the
house. His garden also was the scene of
his most active labors. He was net mere
Interested In fruit and shade trees and grape
vines, than In his peas and beans, his to
matoes and strawberries. He had se great
respect for' them all that he wanted no
vandal hand or feet te Invade the aaored
E reel nets of bis garden patch j and, when
e gathered beans and peas Inte the basket
en his arm, the pods must net be tern from
the vines but cut from them with a scissors.
All this, however, was merely the by-play
of an earnest life.
His was that close and real kinship with
nature which the heart recognizes mere
than the head. It was a perennial spring
of gladness te himself and these about him.
The daisy and the buttercups starring the
meadow with their dewy blossoms; the
columbine nodding among the rocks ; the
liverwort, the vlnlet, (he spring beauty,
unfolding te the sun amid the green grass
hew he loved them ail I He would laugh
ever thorn with boyish glee nnd talk lie
couldn't help It te them and of them as
though they were old friends come back
after, long absence or delay.

StauHXir'a Clear Factory Ignites Frem
the Beiler and the Flames Spread
llapldly-Leasea Abent 910,000.
The thriving little town or Lltits waa
visited en Thursday night by the largest
and most destructive conflagration that the
town has ever known. The only fire that
came near equalling It was the burning of
the Springs hotel, wbleh was snlmmente
frame structure, some years age. This
fire was greater in every respect, and
the less will be very heavy. The largest
building burned waa the cigar factory and
tobacco warehouse of Jehn H. Stanffer.
The Are raged for about three hours before
it was gotten under control. Very for
tunately there was little wind at the time.
Had there been a gale like the one that
blew this forenoon the greater part of tht
town would have been destroyed. As It
was a half dozen buildings, in addition te
the S tanner factory, were burned and many
ethers were in danger for some time.
The warehouse pf'Mr. Stauffer was situ
ated en Juulper alley, in the rear of Bread
street and a short distance south of the
Springs hotel. The building was entlrely
of brick nnd four stories in height. It Is
connected with anether building which
fronts en Bread street snd Is at the oernor
of the alley. This building Is also of
brick and two storles In height. The rear
of this was occupied by Mr. Stauffer also.
In the cellar and en the second fleer leaf
tobacco in cases was stored, and the back
part of the building, en the first fleer, was
used as a packing room. The front of the
building was occupied aa a pretzel store by
Jehn Kissinger. The next building te
this en the north is the hardware stere of
A. B. Bemborger & Ce., and next comes
the clothing stere of W. U. Bucb', ever
which is the printing office of B. Frank
Bucb, editor and proprietor of the Lltltz
Jlecerd. In the same building Is the tin
shop of A. M. Kreldet
Shortly before twelve o'clock Peter Frey,
who, sleeps In the comer of theSpiings
hotel next te Slander's building,
saw a light in the cellar of the
factory and beard the steam blowing from
the beiler. Several girls In the hotel had
also seen the light. They seen found that
the factory was en fire and gave the alarm.
Frem all part of the vlllage peeple came
running te the large building, which
was seen enveloped In flames. The
town has two hand and two shemlcal
engines and theso were seen put te works
Wuter was drawn from the wells lii the
neighborhood and a strong bucket brigade
was formed. The fire spread with the
greatest rapidity and nothing was left of
,the wareheuse, but the walls. In the rear
of A. B. Botnbcrger & Ce.'s stere and
Just north of the factory was a
fraine building which the Arm used
as a wareheuse for storing goods.
The flames spread te It and it was but a
very short time until It was consumed.
Clo8e te this warehouse en the north side
was n frame cigar factory of Isaae Hucli's,
which was also burned.
East of Slaufler's building and across a
little alley steed a stable owned by Jehn
Zeek, proprietor of the Lltltz Express. It
was burned wlLh;some of Its "oetitdnts in
cluding elghteen fine bloyeles, for which
Mr. Zeek In an ugent. A carriage and
ether things were saved. Next te the
Zeek stable was another, which belongs te
A. J. Eberly, of thts city, and is occupied
by Jero Stump, Thore was nothing at al.
left of It when the work of the flames had
been finlshed. Seuth of Juniper alley and
almost immediately opposite the Zeek
stable steed a frame stable owned by J. D.
Witters, who has a shoe stere en Bread
street. The stable wusconsitmed with two
slelglis, a barrel of coal oil, two sets of liar
ness, a ten of hay and seme ethor tilings.
One herse nnd threo wagons wero saved
from the flames.
Seuth of the Witters stable was the
buildings of Jehn W. Holllnger, who keeps
a livery Htable and hotel. The herse stable,
wagon shed, lce house, cow stable,
wareheuse, and in fact nearly every
outbuilding was destroyed. In ene of
the sheds thore wero eight slelglis
nnd every ene was burned. The horses
and ether llve stock were saved, A large
quantity of hay, straw nnd feed, togethor
with harness and ether things were lest.
In the wareheuse a number of wooden
pumps were stored, and nil went up In
smoke. In the lee house there was a car
lead of ice which had Just been secured
from the north, nnd the building was
burned right from around it.
At ene time It looked as though the
Bombergor afid lluch steres would be
swept away. The peeple did a great deal
of work and although these buildings were
en fire soveral times they were saved by
the greatest efforts. The fire made its way
from the cigar factory front te the ethor
building which was occupied by Mr.
Staufler and the pretzel store. The entire
rearpart of this building was dostreyod or
se badly damaged that It will have te be
rebuilt. In this building thore was a great
deal of tobacco in cases. Much of tills
was burned while mero was damaged by
water. The woodwork in the rear of the
Bombergor stere was pretty badly
burned, but the flames worn extinguished
before great damage wus done.
Thore was a tremendous crowd of peo peo poe
plo en the grounds during the fire, but
overybody seemed anxious te make them
sol v os useful by doing what work they
wero able. The goods' wero carried from
all of the stores in the vicinity, as well as
from many houses and placed (u the streets
far eneugh from the fiames, te be out
of danger. B. Frank Bucb, of the
He cord, removed all et his type and the
ether material, with the exception of the
composing stones, from the office in erder
that he might be en the safe side This
was a rather difficult plece of work, but
fortunately that building was net dam
aged, although frequently In great danger,
as Isaac Hucli's cigar factory, which was
destroyed, was net far awny in the rear.
At ene time it was believed that the fire
would de even much mero damage than it
did. Werd was theii telcgraphcd te Lan
caster for assistance. Chief Voudersinlth
was awakened from his slumber and
was seen ready for business. The old
" Washy" cngiue was gotten out and
the firemen of Ne. 4, started witli it and a
hose cart te Lltltz by turnpike. When
they reached Nellsvllle they wero met by
Harry Kaufimau, a young man who hed
been sent from Lltltz te Inform them that
their horvice would net be needed, as the
fire was then under.tontrel. It was about
three o'clock when the people get the best
of the flames which, however, took every
thing before them with the oxceptlon' of
the tbree brick steres. Considering their
limited facilities the Lltltz poeplo did most
excellent work, but the fire frightened
tliem yery badly uud te-day there Is mero
talk of securing a geed steam fire euglne
that ever bofero. A large let of pewder
and ether combustibles that were in Bom Bem
bergcr's wareheuse were takcu te a place
of safety, when the flames were rapidly
making their way towards' the building,
by a number of horelo meu.
The total less by the fire was difficult te
estimate this iseruing, but it will likely be
quite heavy. Stauffer's was by far the
largest building In the town and the largest
fur its purpose In the county. It was
erected about fire years age and was a first
class structure In every respect. It was
fitted up with pipes and heated by steam.
Among the things burned with the building
were five power bunching machines. Scrap
machines, cigar moulds, tools, &e. Mr.
8tauffer thinks that there were between
300,000 and 400,000 cigars in the building.
Of this number 10,000 had been packed last
night for shipping te-day. The books be
longing te Mr. Staufler were saved, as
they had been taken from the safe.
Everything else In the factory waa de
stroyed. Thore were 120 cases of tobacco
in the factory and adjoining building.
The factory was Insured for 10,800 In the
Penn Mutual and Manhelm companies, but
Mr. Staufler values it at a much higher
figure. The stock and contents, owned by
Mr. Stauffer, were Insured for 912,000 with
Bausman A Burns,e( this city, In the follow
ing companies t Aetna, of Hartferd, 92,600 1
Lancashire of England, $3,000 Citizens or
New Yerk, 92,500; British America or
Terente, 92,600 ; Union or San Francisce,
These policies were taken out ten days
age. The less will net only be heavy for
Staufler but it will fall hard upon the town,
as the factory waa giving employment te
76 men, wemen and children.
The warehouse of A. It. Bemborger A
Ce., which was burned, was filled with
woedon pumps, cement, nails, and ethor
hardware, nearly all of which was
lest. Mr. Bombergor told an ls ls
TEM.teHNCKn reporter this morning, that
his less will be between 91,500 and 12,
000, The stock or the wareheuse and stere
Is Insured for $0,000 In the Manhelm and
Northern Mutual companies. The Insur
ance en the building Is 92,000 In the Penn
township company. The less te Kissinger,
the man who had the pretzel stere, will net
be very great, as he dees net own the
building.
The property or Mr. Holllnger Is Insured
In the Lancaster County Mutual company
for something like 91,000. Thts Includes
the houses and ethor buildings. The
amounts en different buildings were:
Stable, 9260; contents, 9020 1 cow stable,
925 ; contents, 916 ; carriage house, 9100 ;
contents, '9380. Mr. Witters thinks his
less will be about $100 and he has an Insur
ance of 9360 In the Manhelm Mutual com
pany. The cigar factory or Isaae Buch has net
been in operation for seme time past, but
In the building there was some stock, fix
tures, eic. -A lsc Je ft cigars were taken
out. Mr. Buch has an Insurance of 950S lu
the Manhelm Mutual company. There
was net a great deal in the Stumpf build
ing, but It Is also understood te be Insured.
A large frame chicken heuse bolenglng te
J. Bellinger was also destroyed In addition
te the buildings named above.
Hew the fire originated no ene seems te
knew, but there is a theery that it came
from the boiler fire. The man who bad
charge of the boiler made the fire fresh last
night, and It is bolievod by some that he
may have forgotten te turn off the draft.
This would cause the tire te become very
het and the joists may have taken fire. The
olevator was net far away, and ence the
flames reaclied It they would sweep
through the building.
A story about an lncendlary Is also told
In Lltltz this morning. It Is said that sev
eral persons who were en their way te the
fire saw a suspicious looking stranger going
out Bread, street.r ,He was speken te but'
made no reply and afterwards started te
run until he get away.
Thore was a great crowd about the sceno
of the fire all day. Poeplo from the entlre
surrounding neighborhood came te town
te loam mero concerning the work of the
llames, and In the crowd wero many peer
poeplo who had been employed lu the fac
tory, and are new without work. Up te
almost neon te-day the streets wero
standing full of goods from steres
and houses, and that part of the
village presents a striking appearance.
The two old hand engines, which did
such geed work at the fire, have somethlng
of n history. They are both the property
of the Meravians, by whom the town of
Lltitz was founded. One engiue was
brought from Germany by the members of
the church ever ene hundred years age. It
was the custom of the peeple te take
steps te protect thomselves against fire
bofero doing anything else. The ether
englne Is 'about 75 years old, It
was built by Agnew A Ce.. Hi "Phil
adelphia. Some of the old host hese
brought from Qermany with the first on en
glne was tried at last night's fire, nnd It is
still In a fair state of preservation. The
two chemical ongines used last night wero
purchased by the cltizens rocently.

Its aim the presentation te the czar or Rus
sia or a monster petition signed by Amer
icans calling his personal attontlen te cruel
ties reported le be practiced en victims
under the the Siberian exile system with
the hope that his attontten,so pointedly and.
urgently invoked, may lead te a revision
and reformation and of that system. " The
petition," they say, has been drawn up
with the greatest possible care, tumor the
supervision and correction of theso who
are well verred In diplomatic and Russian
affairs, and Is bolievod te be ene which will
command the wldest endorsement here,
and the best chance of reception and re
spectful attention en the part of the czar
and his government, at the same time leav
ing the way epen for further effort," They
ask for assistance by the formation of local
committees and auxiliary associations,

the petition and pecuniary help, funds be

We belong te a poeplo who have long
been bound by the natural ties of sym
pathy and gratltude te the great Russian
nation nudtothe czars clothed with her
majesty, who wield her power and shape
her destiny.
It Is your majesty's provlnce te de for
Russia what we, In a certain sense, de for
eurselves; nnd though the methods of gov gev gov
ernmontal action nre different, the aims or
geed government are the same: the
strength nnd true grandeur or the state and
the wolfare nnd happtness or the poeplo.
Fer theso things nations are nrganized
und laws are decreed and oxecutod; for
these things great pi luces in the fear of
Ged exerclse Imperial sway, and presidents
nre appolnted.
Differ though they may In outward form,
your government nnd our governmont are
brothers In their noblest dutles.
Ner are our fraternal professions nn
empty feeling; we romembor, and we can
never forget, new the czar, by his faith in
the stability of the American Union and by
the prosenco or Russian ships In the harbor
or New Yerk, strengthened the republle
when It was supposed, by less far-sighted
sovereigns nnd statesmen, te be en the
wrgs of ruin. Our danger, then, arose
from an evil which your ilmrtricin father,
Alexander II, by his oxample, hoi pod our
illustrious president, Abraham Lincoln, te
ronievo: nnd the great prince who liberated
the Russian serfs aud the great citizen who
froed the Amerlcan sinves, by kindred
deeds of, humanity, linked their countries
togethor by enduring ties.
Sharing, therefore, as the past has taught
us te du, In the. thoughts that concern the
glory nud happlness of your iieople, we
have 'been mured te bring te you, with
geed greetings, this petition : r
That your majesty will personally take
nole of a widespread Interest, among us,
In the workings and effects of the Siberian
exile system.
We de net forget the penal reforms
nlready accomplished In the Russian
empire. We are net blind te Iho mental
and physical sufferlmrs that of necessity
are n part of any system or punishment for
crime, against individuals, socie ty or the
state ;,or are we unmindful of the need of
reforms which are actlvely engaging the
attention of philanthropists In etir own
metheds or dealing with convicts. In this
we are giving expression te the feeling of
friendly poeplo, that In the punishment or
seme of her subjects Russia, whether from
causes peculiar te her poeplo. or op account
of nuclent custom, Is net In harmony with
the humanizing sentiments of the age. It
Is our wish that by the wisdom and nower
or the czar and the favor of Ged, Russia
may grew iu the ad ml ration and sympathy
