Description

Excerpt from Fifty Years of the Republican Party: An Address Delivered at Jackson, Mich., July 6, 1904 An Address Delivered by the Hon. John Hay, Secretary of State, at Jackson, Mich July 6, 1904. A century is but a moment of history; it has often happened that several of them have passed away, since men began to record their deeds, with little change in the physical aspect or the moral progress of the world. But at other times - of in tense action and spiritual awakening - a single gen eration may form an epoch; and few periods of equal duration in political annals have been so crowded with great events as the fifty years we cele brate to-day. Under the oaks of Jackson on the oth of July, 1854, a party was brought into being and baptized, which ever since has answered the purposes of its existence with: fewer follies and fail ures and more magnificent achievements than ordi marily fall to the lot of any institution of mortal origin. And even the beginning of the end is not yet. This historic party is only now in the full maturity of its power and its capacity for good. We look back upon a past of unparalleled useful ness and glory with emotions of thankfulness and pride; we confront the future and its exacting prob lems with a confidence born of the experience ofdifficulties surmounted and triumphs achieved in paths more thorny and ways more arduous than any that are likely to challenge the courage and the conscience of the generation which is to follow us. It 'is meet that at this stage of our journey we should review the past and read its lessons, and in its light take heart for What lies beyond.
