To
THE HARD-HANDED MEN WHO BROKE THE PRAIRIE, HEWED THE FORESTS, MADE THE ROADS AND BRIDGES, AND BUILT LITTLE HOMES IN THE WILDERNESS. TO THE NORSE LUMBERJACK AND THE "FORTY-EIGHT" GERMAN AND THE MEN OF THE "IRON BRIGADE," AND ALL TOILERS WHO, BY THEIR SWEAT, MADE POSSIBLE OUR SCHOOLS, A GREAT UNIVERSITY, AND ALL THE GOOD THAT IS WITH US. TO THE LEGISLATORS, ALWAYS CRITICISED AND NEVER PRAISED.
