Ernest Robinson the last speaker on the program had an oration entled "A Story of Conquest." It was well delivered and shows a strong future contestant.
The oration was different from the general type of college orations and well deserves the place gained for its oration in the contest.
The oration opens with a vivid description of the advent of the Spaniards in the new world and the reception given them by the Aztecs who welcomed them as Gods come to their deliverance. Thus did the grandeur of eastern civilization impress the primitive nations of the west. Sprung from different sources each had advanced without the other. Suddenly brought in contact almost without a struggle the Aztec recognizing his inferiority gave way before the glittering grandeurs of the Spanish cavalry. But this conquest has a philososhy. A government founded on despotism, where the individual is unrecognized cannot long move onward. Equality, industry and constitutional liberty have been the forces which have wrought the permanent advancement of the human race. The history of the Aztec Dynasty is ample proof of this fact. Its civilization, the grandest the new world had produced, fell before the avarice and power of the Spaniard. New Spain, the pride and hope of a declining monarchy was in turn swept away before the uprising of the people. And today Spain broken and despairing reaps the harvest of her own pernicious system of conquest and colonization. But mark the contrast between these Spanish couquerors and those sturdy Anglosaxons who peopled the northern shores of this great continent. Our worthy pilgrim fathers were not impelled by avarice, and the pretext of proselytism. The desire for freedom, for religious and political liberty alone induced them to beard the hardships of a wintry sea, and on the principles of equality and constitutional liberty has
Content: Content with what? Content that he is a pauper, content that his enemy should triumph, content that his child should turn against him? Content that he should renounce the religion of his fathers? No. There is no content. And as long as the scales of justice are weighted down by gold; as long as perjured juries and prejudiced judges doom the wronged and oppressed to death; as long as wrong is triumphant and right is crushed by power as cruel and relentless as the grave; there can be, and by all the prayers and tears of down-trodden humanity, there shall be no content."
The man crushed, the father childless, moves not the mercy loving Portia. She mockingly inquires "Art thou contented, Jew?" He with his life depending on the answer replies: "I am content."
arisen. A nation which today leads the advancing civilizations of the world. And Mexico at length feeling the influence of American independence, is today a free republic Transmitted thence to the southern half of the western hemisphere the spirit of freedom burst the bonds of tyranny and despotism and today the name of Monarch is unknown on the American continent.
The Glee Club shows a marked improvement over last year and its new songs were enthusiastically received by the students. The Indian band also furnished some fine music. We all know that Dan Crew sang, for what would a contest be unless Dan was there to sing. Mr. Duncan Collins, the famed mandolin player also furnished some fine selections.
