THE FUTURE OF AMERICA IS UsBoUNDED.

New York, June IA dispatch to
the Journal and ADVERTISE from Paris
says:
Archbishop Ireland, speaking at the
Decoration day banquet of the Ameri.
can University club, said:
Future Belongs to Youth.
THE future belongs TO the youth.
Therefore il is pleasant to recall TO
the youth of America their duties and
responsibilities. The future of Amer
lea is SO great that | sometimes won
der if these young men of America
really know what America means.
1T stands for liberty with civil or
der, and civil order with liberty. To
fulfill this mission is the duty of west
ern youth in their intelligence and vir
tue. Intelligence rules the world, and
without virtue intelligence becomes
mere theory.
Youth Must Have Patriotism.
youth must have patriotism. This
lis sometimes wanting in the upper
classes; but in the recent war our
country showed that the rich have
this heritage in common with the
poor.
Theodore Roosevelt and many an
other young man of wealth and high
family name left their homes to eater
the ranks with the commonest work
man, and proved anew the glory of
American citizenship.
Wealth More Than Idle Youth.
''It is this same class of men who are
helping, by their votes, to make their
civic labors in peace as great as their
bravery in war. They show that wealth
means more than idle youth, which
fails in its human mission and excites
hatred
Europe was brought to revolution
b. its idle rich. America. fortunately,
has not yet developed such class, but
is in danger of doing so and should
guard against it.
Glass Pride Deprecated.
"There should be in America no
such separation of classes as is seen
to- much in Europe. | deprecate any
thing like class pride for either money
or education.
when an American young man
comes to Europe he finds much to
learn. We should use all that comes to
us for the good of our nation and so
make America great in its citizen

at Present I'm Order to Warrant
Further Enlistments-Otis Can
Have All Tie Needs.

Washington. June 1.-The president
| declared TO congressional caller that
| there was not at present any eontem-
plation of largely increasing Gen. Otis
| forces in the Philippines. He said that
nothing had been received from Gen.
| Otis which indicated the necessity for
more troops beyond the regulars who
| are to be sent to relieve the retiring
volunteers.
Would he Furnished IL Needed.
But. the president added, if addi-
| tional reinforcement become necessary
| they will be promptly furnished. A
number of governors of states had adj
vised him that they could furnish regi
ments in short order If the occasion
| required. But at the same time the
president expressed his strong belief
and confidence that the necessity for
mastering in additional volunteers in
accordance with the authority granted
by the army reorganization bill will
not arise.
Secretary AIger Talks.
Secretary Alger was with the presi-
dent some time discussing the situa-
ton. When he left the White House he
denied that Gen. Otis had cabled, Sun
day, that 10000 troops would be neces-
sary. Gen. Otis, said he. had been mott
| fed from time to time that all the
| troops he considered necessary would
| BE- supplied to him, and not word of
complaint has come from him.
Cabled to Gen. Otis.

| ing him definite information as to the
number of regulars he would have af-
ter the volunteers were withdrawn.
Including the Nineteenth infantry
which was delayed at Ponce by the
stranding of the transport Meade, he
will have $4,000 regulars. | asked him
II more than that number would be re-
qLired. We desire this information, be-
cause, If volunteers must be mustered
In it will require all the time between
now and the end of the rainy season
to muster them in, equip them and
transport them to the scene of ac-
| ton.
Additional Regulars IL Necessary.
1--WE could, If necessary, furnish Gen.
Otis with about 5000 or 5000 addition
n regulars without calling for volun-
teers. but the sending of the additional
regulars would reduce the troops at
the military post in this country to a
minimum, and cramp us somewhat in
Cuba and Porto Rico. We have abso-
lutely no reason to believe that Gen.
Otis will require more troops than we
can furnish without enlisting volun-
teers."
