If It become, their duty to do It To the sons of the Puritan, it ia almo-t needles, to .ay that the lesson above all ether, which rurltanlara can teach this nation I. the all-Importance of the resolute prrform.nce of duty. If we ore men we will pass by with contemptuous disdain - alike the adviser, who would seek to lead ,s Into the path, of Ignoble ease and thoss who would teach us to admire successful wrongdoing.

The true doctrine to preach 'to this nation, a. to the individual. ?omposlng this nation, is not the life of ease, hut the life of effort. If It were In my power to promise the people of this land anything. I would rot promise them pleasure. X Would promise them that stern happiness which comes from the sense of having rtctrvA In practical fashion a diffi cult work -which was worth doing. Element, of Sacre... The Puritan owed his extraordinary uc t rs in subduing this continent and making It the foundation for a social life of or dered liberty primarily to the fact that he combined In a very rcmarkabre degree both th. power of Individual Initiative, of In dividual self-help, and the power of acting in combination with hi. fellows; and that furthermore ho joined to a high heart that ahrswd 'common sense which save, a man from the besetting .In. of the visionary and the doctrinaire. He was stout hearted and hard headed. He had lofty purposes, but he "had practical good sense, too.' He could hold his own in the rough workaday world without clamorous insistence upon being helped by others, and yet he could romblne wtth others whenever It became necessary to do a Job which could not be as well done by any one man individually. The Problem, of Today. These wer. the qualities which enabled him to do hi. work, and they are the vary qualities which we must .how in doing our work today. There Is no use of our rooting here to pay homage to the men who founded this nation unless wo first of all come In the spirit of try ing to do our work today as they did their work In the yesterdays that have vanished. The problem, shift from gen- munlty, to each state, the control over tho.e things which affect only Its own mem bers and which the people of the locality themaelvea can best grapple . with, while providing for rational regulation In those matters which necessarily affect the nation as a whole. It seems to rhe that such ques tions a. national sovereignty and state's rights need to be treated not empirically er academically, but from the standpoint of the Interests of the people as a whole. National sovereignty I. to be upheld In so far as It means the sovereignty of the people used for the real and ultimate good of the people; and state's rights are to be upheld In so far as they mean the people's right. Especially I. this true in dealing with the relation, of the people as a whole to the great corporation, which are the. distinguishing feature of modern business conditions. . Experience has shown that It is necessary to exercise a far more efficient control than at present over the business use of those vast fortunes, chiefly corporate, which aro used (as under modern conditions they al most Invariably are) In Interstate business. When the constitution was created none of the conditions of modern business existed, They are wholly new and we must create new agencies to deal effectively with them There is no objection In the minds of this people to any man's earning any amount of money If he does It honestly and fairly. If he gets it as the result of special skill nd enterprise, as a reward of ample serv ice actually rendered. But there Is a grow ing determination that no man shall amass a great fortune by special privilege, by chicanery and wrong-dolns. .o far a. it I. In the power of legislation to prevent; and that the fortune when amassed shall not have a business use that Is antisocial. Most large corporation, do a business that is not confined to any one state. Experi ence has shown that the effort to control .trlctiy construed In favor of the defendant. and In our country, at least both Judg. and Jury are far mor. Inclined to consider Ms rights than they are th. Interests of th. general publio, while In addition It is always true that a man's general practice, may be so bad that a civil action will lie hen It may not be possible to convict him of any one criminal act. There I. un fortunately a oertaln number of our felow countrymen who eem to .ccept the view that unless a man can be proved guilty of soma particular crime ha .hall be counted good cltlaen, no- matter how infamous the life he has led, no matter how per nicious hi. doctrine, or his practices. This I. the view announced from time to time with clamorous insistence, now-by a group of predatory capitalists, now by a group of sinister anarchistic leaders and agita tors, whenever a special champion of either class, no matter how evil hi. general life. Is acquitted of some one specific crime. Buch a view is wicked whether applied to capitalist or labor leader, to rich man or poor man. -and all that I have said as to desirable and undesirable cltir.ens . remains true. Expediency In Prosecutions. But we have to take thla feeling Into ac count when we are debating whether It Is possible to get a conviction in a criminal proceeding against some rich trust mag nate, many of whose actions are severely to be condemned from the moral and social standpoint, but no one of whose action, seems clearly to establish such technical gutlt as will Insure a conviction. As a matter of expediency, In enforcing the law against a great corporation, we have continually to weigh the arguments pro and con a. to whether a prosecution can successfully be entered into, and as to whether we can be successful In a criminal action against the chief Individuals in the corporation, and If not whether we can at least be successful In a civil action against the corporation itself. Any effective action on tho part of the government ia alway. objected to, a. a matter of course, by the wrongdoers, by the beneficiaries of the wrongdoers, and by their champions; and often one of the most effective way. of attacking the action of the government is by objecting to practical action upon the ground that It doe. not go far enough. One of the favoritfe devices of those who are really striving to prevent the enforce ment of these laws is to clamor for action' of such severity that It cannot be under taken because It will be certain to fall If tried. An Instance of this Is the demand often made for criminal prosecutions where such prosecutions would be certain to fail. We have found by antual experience that a Jury which will gladly punish a corpora tion by fine, for Instance, will acquit the Individual members of that corporation If we proceed against them criminally be cause of those very things which the cor poration which they direct and control has done. In a recent case against the Licorice trust we Indicted and tried the two cor porations and their, respective presidents, The contracts and other transactions estab- ..m.ing me guut or the corporations were between man and man and rigid obedience to the law. Our aim Is to help every honest man. every honest corporation, and our policy means In Its ultimate analysis a healthy and prosperous expansion of busi ness activities, of honest busines. men and honest corporations. Hear, for Railway Employee. I very earnestly hope that the legislation which deal, with the regulation of corpora tion, engaged In interstate bu.lnes. will also deal with the rights and Interest, of the wageworker. en-ployed by those cor porations. Artlon wa. taken by the con gress last year limiting the number of hours that railway employe, should be employed. The law I. a good one; but If In practice It proves necessary to strengthen It, It must.be strengthened. We have now secured a national employers' liability law; but ultimately a more far reaching and thoroughgoing law mutt be passed. It is monstrous that a man or woman who Is crippled in an Industry, even a. the result of taking what are the necessary risks of the occupation, should be require to bear the whole burden of the loss. That burden should be distributed and not placed solely upon the weakest Individual, the one least able o carry It. By me.klng the employer liable the loss will ultimately be distributed among all the beneficiaries of the business. I also hope that there will be legislation Increasing the power of the national gov ernment to deal with certain matters con cerning tho health of our people every where; the federal authorities, for Instance, should join with all t state authorities in warring against the dreadful scourge of tuberculosis. Tour own state government, here In Massachusetts)! deserves high praise for the action it ha. t.ken In these public health matter, during the last few yean, and In thla, as In some other matters, I hope to see the national government stand abreast of tho foremost state govern ments. .. cannot produce wholesome results. In most cases such effort falls to Correct the real abuses of which the corporation Is or mey be guilty; while in other case, the effort is apt to cause either hardship to the corporation Itself, or else hardship to neighboring states which have not tried to grapple with the problem in the same man ner; and of course we must be as scrupu lous to safeguard the right, of the cor porations a. to exact from them In return a full measure of Justice to the public.

We can do this only by proceeding farther along the lines marked out by the recant national legislation. In dealing with any totally new set of conditions there must at the outset be he.l tatlon and experiment. Such ha. been, our experience In dealing wtth th. enormous concentration of capital employed In Inter tate business. Not only the legislatures, but the courts and the people need gradu ally to be educated so that they may see what the real wrongs are and what the real remedies. Almost every big business concern i. engaged In interstste commerce, and such a concern must not be allowed by a dexterous shifting of position, a. has been too often the case la th. past, to escape ther.by all responsibility either to state or to nation. Need of Reajalatlon Apparent. The American people became firmly con vinced of the need of control over thee great aggregations of capital, especially where tht-y had a monopolistic tendency, before they became quite clear as to the proper way of achieving the control. Through thalr representatives In congress they tried two remedies, which were to a large decree, at least as interpreted by tl.e courts, contradictory. On th. on. hand, under the anti-trust law the effort wa. made to prohibit all combination, whether It wa. or wa. not hurtful or beneficial to the public. On the other hand, through the interstate commerce law a beginning wa. made In exercising such .upervtalon and control over combination, a. to pre vent their doing anything harmful to the body politic. The first law, the so-called Sherman law, ha. filled a u.eful place, for It bridge, over the transition period until the American people .hall definitely make up it. mind that It will exercla. over the great corporation, that thoroughgoing and radical control which It I. oertaln ulti mately to find nece.sary. Th. prlnclpl. of the Sherman law so far a. it prohibit, combination, which, whether because of tlielr extent or ef their character, are harmful to the public mu.t alway. be pre served. Ultimately, and I hope with rea sonable speed, the national government must pass law. which, while increasing the supervisory and regulatory power ef the government, also permit. .Ah u.eful combination. .. are made with fbe.lts openness and as th. representative, of th government may previously approve.

A. t Criminal Action. In dealing wtth those who oftenj agaln.t the anti-trust and inter.tat. commerce laws, the Department of Justice has to encounter many anl great difficulties. Often men who have been guilty of violating these law. have really acted In criminal fashion, and If possible should be pro ceeded against criminally, and therefor It I. advisable that there ahould b. a clause In the., law providing for auch- criminal action, aod for puulahm.nt ty Impri.oa- I ment a. wall a. by fin.
