Little did I dream when I signed your conimlssliutH that I would so soon relin quish my position as your eoinmunder-ln-chief. No governor over bail a staff better equipped to fulllll their duties either from a military or social standpoint, than you, gentlemen, who havo honored me by uo ceptlug your respective positions. Yon have asked me to respond to u toust on Nebraska. It was my good fortune to become a citt n nf this magnificent state nearly a quarter of u century ago. During the last fifteen years I havo vUlted every statu and territory In the union and trav eled In many foreign lauds, und 1 only re- Geat now what 1 have often said, that No raskit for good citizenship, soil aud cli mate surpasses any other spot on earth.

Nebraska contributed the largest percntngo of men to defend our flag during thu civil war. The Klrst Nebraska regiment then, as during the late Spanish-American war, won fame and glory on many a baltlollcld aud wo have one hero among Us who contributed no small sharu to thu many victories won by tho gallant Klrst. He Is about to rctlie as eommaudet of tho National Guard lind give Ills Ifo's work, and life If need be, for his country, lie took part In moro than twenty battles and never wan oft duty a single hour. He led the boys to victory and cap tured the water works near Manila against great odds, and I do not hesltatu to say that had It been u brewery In place of n water tank ho would have captured it alone. OImIIiikhInIiivI Scrvlees. My staff has distinguished Itself for brav ery, dlsclpllnu und justice. General Hills distinguished himself liy charging a but tery of artillery and capturing a cannon, and as, to discipline and Justice, Colonel Anderson can vouch for that. I tegret tlmt 1 havo tint had tho pleasure of your companionship ofteuer In tho past ami that my duties will separate us in the futuie My heart will be with you and my blessings upon you nu matter where 1 may be.
