The

remarked:
Honorabie
Members
bhefore
proceeding
to the ordoer
of
the
day
1 desire
to
make
a
few
re-
marks.
During
my absence
in
the
Uni-
ted States.
I was honored
while in Wash-
ington
by being
leceived
by rhe
Presi-
dent of the
United States
in private
au-
dience.
As
I waited
in
the
anti-rocom
in
the
White
House
to be ushered
into the
pres-
ence
of .the first
citizen
of ,the
United
States
my-
memory
became
active
in
gonjuring
up
images
of the
men
of
the
past
occupants
of the
White
House.
Would
that those
walls
could
impart
to
visitors
some
portion
of
i(be
ethereal
spirit with whieh their former
illustrious
occupants
was
so deeply
imbued
and who
so largely contributed toward
the making
of
our
mighty
republic-—men
whose
learning
and
researches,
whose
talents
and
genius
contributed
so much
to
the
supremacy
of these
United States.
It
was here
that John
Adams
a signer
of
the Declaration
of Inc.pendence
first
held sway—a
man of exemplary conduct.
It
was
here jthat James
Madison
came
with polished
and
chastened
wit;
and
where
with his able
consort
Dolly Madi-
son
assembled
the beauty
of the land
to
pay
court to
that noble example
of home
wifely
virtue.
It
was
bere
that
James
Monroe
that
mighty
author
of
the
so
styled
Monroe
Doctrine,
whose
words
thus
expressed
Lad
such
a
potent
influence
upon
the
world
during
the
past
century.
It
was
here
that
An-
drew
Jackson,
‘‘old hickory’,
as
bhe
was ‘called,
from
his
stern
and
un-
flinching
sense
of duty—He
was
not
a
statesman,
but
he
was fair, he
was
en-
ergetic,
he was prompt
and
he
was fear-
less.
It was here that Abraham
Lincoln
that giant of intellect,
so lean
in statue,
but so mighty as
a
scholar
and moralist,
vet
so
kind
and
soft
for
the
afflicted.
It
was
here.
that
William
McKinley
whose
learning
and
talent
and
genius
contributed
soc
much
toward
the
supre-
macy of the United Ststes.
And
it %as
here
that Theodore
Roosevelt the mighty
advocate
of justice
toward
all
men,
the
man whose
every
thought
was
a square
deal
for all held
sway
and
who contri-
buted
so much toward increasing
respect
