Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Addresses by Senator Chauncey M. Depew: At the Dinner Given by the Montauk Club, of Brooklyn, on Saturday Evening, April 21, 1900, in Celebration of His Birthday; And at Girard College, May 19, 1900, at the Celebration of the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Birth of Its Founder, Ste Gentlemen: For Use ninth successive your you give me your hearty welcome and generous greeting on my birthday. Your inspiring message has always been, "God bless you and good luck to you." In the kaleidoscope of the revolutions of time we have found something on each anniversary in the experiences of the year which has intervened for discussion and reflection. The transition from private station to public life since we met here last April gives the thought for tonight. The differences between social life at the Capitol and in the metropolis anti a view from the inside of the Senate as it is - and not as it is pictured - are perilous, hut interesting subjects for the talk of this anniversary of 1900. Society is a term of as wide range as civilization. The social world illustrated by the late Mr. Ward McAllister has neither touch nor interest in that which met for years at Parker´s, in Boston, every week, with Longfellow, James Russell Lowell, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Whittier, and congenial friends at the table. The newspapers print, nows which their readers want, and the criticism of the paper should be directed against the subscriber.
