MEN BEHIND THE GUNS
In all tho relations of commeielnl
life the men behind the guns havi
forged to the front. Without the woik
of their hands and brain we would be
today wheie our fathers were one hun
dred jears ago Their woith has been
demonstrated to the woild by theli
achievements. The men of our time
are free-born, thinking men. They nie
filed v Ith ambition and a knowledge
of their power. The win Id bows In ap
pieelatlon of tho tolleis her uncrowned
kings.
The utility of natural wealth In com
mercial lifo. tho discovery and utility
of Iron and coal: of copper and gold of
oil and air, have enteied Into every
nventie of eommeiee. I must, however,
hurriedly pass the thought and look
for a moment at tho fourth gieat fact,
tho American trust.
Our fi lends, tho enemy, had on their
blue spectacles tho other night In St
Louis. They always take n gloomy
view of our Industrial piospects. They
seem to forget that we nro living In a
day of great enterprises and gi eater
achievements. Men foi get that the
economlo tendency towards which tho
whole tteatlon moves Is tho cheapen
ing of product; the regulation of out
put, nnd tho control of prices. Large
I combinations of capital arc required to
carry out this economic purpose.
Trusts are here ami here to stay. Ours
Is to prune them of their evils and wel
come them to their proper place In our
commercial life. I nm constrained to
believe that thciy nre but the forerun
ner of a broader spheie and a laiger
life. I see In them, 'tis true, an ele
ment of danger that may teir our civil
fabrle1 Into shleds and leave behind n
trail ot blood. I see In them nlso the
germ of a new Industrial order higher
than past generations have enjoyed. I
have confidence In God and In my fellow-men
that the latter will finally pre
vail. I am thankful, however, for the agi
tation on this line.
THE DEEPS OF RIGHT.
By tlie storm at sea the nllmc and
the Impurities beneath the surface nie
Fepatated nnd left on the sands of the
shoie, and the depths are clnrllletl by
the storm. So I believe that under the
turbulent etcst of human agitation al
ways llovvfl the crstal "deeps of
right."
From the struggle I expect to see the
toller eineigo triumphant, a sharer In
the holdings ot capital, obtained by
purchnse. I expect to see the evils of
the ttust pi lined away and thiough
them industrial co-operation rise above
the tloeavlng cenpse of the wages sys
tem, and confer a blessing on tlm ages
yet to come.
