interview with General Lawton by the
Rev Mr. Mcqueen. in the Congregations
alist.' in which General Lawton was re
ported to have said hat the accursed war
ought TO be stopped that the time had
come FOR diplomacy to step in. The truth
of the statement had been questioned and
Mr. Lentz had written to find out the facts.
Mr. McQueen's secretary had replied that
the report Of the interview had been writ
ten from notes taken at the time. and the
only change made by Mr. Mcqueen had
been. as he was writing TO a religious pa
per. to change the word "damnable' TO
''acCursed."
The speaker referred to the statement
in President McKiEley's message that vol
unteer soldiers willingly extended their
service in the Philippines beyond their
term Of enlistment. In this Mr. Lentz said
be had been misled The officials Of the
War Department he said had written to

Mr. Lentz said he wanted to see the
President call these officials and newspa-
pers to account for their words. which
belied his assertion. Mr.. LentE ridiCuled
the idea of Congress legislating for tine
people of the Philippines. 1t was not able
to properly legislate for the city Of Wash

ell Members OF the House knew that they
and their neighbors at home were not able
TO govern their own cities as they should; ;
they could not even govern their own sons
as they should be How were they then,
he asked. to govern people on the other
side Of the earth? Most OF the troubles
affecting the country now. he said. were
due to the fact that Congress had been
neglecting the interests of the eighty mill
ions OF people OF this country.
Continuing to a conclusion. Mr.. Lentz
repeated in large measure the criticisms
he had heretofore on several occasions
made against the management OF the war
and the conduct OF the Administration.
