"Gentlemen, you have portrayed able rights of the Church.
your subject, not, I fear, aa he is; but —-----
ns he should be. But your portrait is
so attractive that it shall be my en-
deavor to resemble it more and more
every day of ihe few years that re-
main to me. -One merit only I can
truly claim, and that is, an ardent
love for my native country and her
political institutions.
'I consider lihe Republic of the
United States one of the most pre-
cious heirlooms ever bestowed on
mankind down the ages, and that It George W. Mundelein,
Is the duty and should he the delight
of every citizen to strengthen and per-
petuate our government by. tho ob-
servance of Its laws, and by the inte-
grity of his private life. ’Righteous-
ness,’ Bays the Book of Proverbs,
‘exalteth a nation, but sin -Is a re-
proach to the people.’
"It is true Indeed there Is no offi-
cial union of Church and State in this
country. But we must not inter
from this that there Is any antagon-
to them.
"We Will see presidents who are
Catholics as well as presidents who
are Protestants, and we will see presi-
dents who are Jews as well as presi-
dents who are Gentiles. It should be
the^bdm of every man who is presi-
dent so to carry himself toward his
fellow Americans who are not; of his
religion that some day, when there IS
another president who is not of his
religion, that mon may treat him in
the same fashion."
“The affection tor Cardinal Gib-
bons," Speaker Clark said, "1b just
as strong wear of the great river
as it is east He has been a potent
force for good among both Catho-
lics and Republicans, No man ever
i in either house of Con-
gress or in boi’h as long as he; no
man ever served on the Supreme
Bench that long; only one judge has
ever sat aa long as Cardinal Gibbons,
only one officer of the navy, and no
officer of tlie army has served that
long. I wish him peace, prosperity
and length of days.”
