HARRISON TO THE VOLUNTEERS
On Presenting a BattIef1ae Wrought
BY Ladies of Indianapolis

Indianapolis Ind, May S.-This after
noon at Camp Mount where 5000 Indiana
volunteers are assembled, General HaF-
rison made his first public uttArancs on
the war in presenting flag to Battery A
on behalf OF society ladies'
After comphmenting the officers and
men of the battery upon heir efficiency
in drill, General Harrison said:
you have, as trained and organized
militia, a great advantage over the vol
unteers of 1s61-63. Our foes now are not,
thank God. those of our own household.
That was a war for the life of the Union;
this war for humanity. That for our
selves; this for the oppressed of another
race. We could not escape this conflict
Spanish rule had become effete We dare
not say that we have Gods commission
TO deliver the oppressed the world
around To the distant Armenians we
could only send the succor of a faith that
overcomes death. and the alleviations
which the nurse and the commissary can
give But the oppressed Cubans and
their starving women and children are
knocking at our doors. Their cries pene-
trate our slumbers. They are closely with
in what we have defined to be the sphere
OF American protection. We have said,
To us, not to Europe and we cannot
shrink the responsibility and the dan
gers of this old and settled American
policy. We have. as a nation, towards
Cuba the same high commission which
every brave hearted man has to strike
down the ruff1an who in his presence
beats woman or child and will not de-
sist. For what, If not for this, does God
make man or a nation strong?
I'VE have disclaimed in the face OF the
nations of Europe who are now dividing
continents much as hungry boys might

Its our war"
The Democrats had right to claim the
war, together with the Populists and sill
yer Republicans, who were with the Dem
ocrats in almost everything. Mr.. Clark
made a patriotic reference to Commodore
Dewey.
Mr.. Cummings, responding to Mr.. Clark,
said he reciprocated fully all the kind"
things said concerning him by the gentle
man from Missouri. Continuing, ne briefly
pointed out in pointed anecdote that the
Missourian was himself responsible for
Missouri having advocated the late nomi-
nation Of Mr.. Cleveland.
SUPPORTERS IN DEFENSE.
Mr.. Fitzgerald (Dem.) Of Massachusetts,
said he was one of the six Democrats
whom the Missouri member had assumed
to read out Of the Democratic party. The
revenue bill was in some points not strictly
in line with Democratic principles, but he
had voted for it as an emergency meas
ure. necessary in this critical period, and
be had supported it just as the member
from Missouri and all Democrats had
supported the $50, 000. 900 defense bill. which
was not technically Democratic.
Mr.. McAleer Dem. Pa one of the six
mebers of his party woh supported tho
satisfied with vote that he was with the
one cast IN support Of the bill, the immed-
late passage OF which he considered the
country's need and demand. He denied
the right of any man who admitted him.
self to a Democrat exactly in accord
with the Popuhsts, to question his De-
mocracy.
BACK OF THE QUESTION.
Mr.. Cochrane Dem MOD thought that
in the exuberance Of the discussion OF
members patriotism the merits of the
bill had been forgotten and proceeded to
discuss the bill which had passed the
house TIE denied that any necessity for
a bond issue would exist He said the
war could be prosecuted for 5000. 900, 900 per
year and he believed the American forces
could crush Spain before the bonds could
be sold.
MR.. BAILEY'S REPROOF.
When Mr. Cochrane concluded. Mr..
Bailey, (Den- Tex.) was recognized. He
ternoon as likely to be misconstrued.
There had been a tendency. if not an Of
fort. TO magnify the differences in the
Democratic ranks. The record showed
that upon all votes up to the last upon
the revnus bill all Democrats had voted
together, and when the final vote, trying
to all, came, but five or six Democrats,
accustomed to stand together, had regret
fully but consistently voted for the bill
and against the other Democrats.
At o'clock the house took recess un-
til o'clock.
At the night session twenty-five pen
sion bills and number Of acts correct
ing military records of, and removing
charges of desertion standing against,
soldiers, was passed. The session con-
tinued until 1890 O'Clock.
