"My fellow citizens , I am very glad tc greet you hero this , morning' . I need not say that I llko the nag w.hlch you carry , Whenever you put that 'flag In the hands of thp boys and 'girls you put patriotism In their hearts. There are- two Strong and marked phases in the war with Spain. The one | s Its 'heroism and the other It's human ity. The individual valor of the oldlcr and the sailor has never been surpassed. . . . Bott at Manila -and Santiago , both In Oewey'e fleet and .Sampson's , squadron , there were distinguishing exhibitions qf personal valoi and intrepidity which thrilled all our hearts , So with the land forces &t .S.an Juan hill and El Caney and Manila. ' so , with the marines at Quantanamd. . This Is the heroic side , i "Tho other Is'thoibumanliarlan ' side. The first ship to enter the ha6or of Santiago after the surrender of thu Spanish forces and army to General Shatter was a shli | laden with food and proVblods and medicine car rying the Hed Cross1 to'-the suffering ' .Inhabi tants of. thnjt land. And so , all through the war wo haye mingled with our hc'rolsm , pur splendid nnd glorious humanity. Thera''wns no mallco 'In ' ourconflict , ho bHterncjsa r resentment connected with It , and when It was all oVer we treated pui to j. erously as wo could have treated a friend. All this must be Inspiring to the American people. Wo are a great people.
