Victories of Force not the Best Product in Talmage Sermon
In a national Thanksgiving oration, Dr. Talmage lauds the plow hammer and pen over war. He extols growth of industry from farms and mills to railroads and cities, praises American literature and education, and warns that wealth without virtue harms the nation. He envisions abundant harvests, rising wages, and a duty to expand libraries and schools while avoiding moral decay.
