GENERAL "JoE'' wHEELER's PLEA FOR A STAND
ING ARMY TO SECURE RESPECT OF WORLD.
Chicago Aug n.-General Joseph Wheeler made
a strong plea for the standing Army in his convoca-
ton address at the University OF Chicago last even
ing He declared that the most certain way to avoid
the desolation and horrors Of was to be con-
stantly ready with men and arms for every emer-
gency; that the only security for peace was to be
always prepared and ready to engage in war. At the
close of the address General Wheeler was cheered
by the students many OF whom from the
Southern States. and when the university band
struck up the tune Of Dixie the enthusiasm rose
to a high pitch
The Rev Arthur Maxson Smith, of California,
who took the degree of Doctor of Philosophy yes

he has been elected president of Oahu College, the

General Wheeler's topic was Our Pacific Posses
sions." He briefly traced the history and develop
ment Of the islands recently acquired by the United
States and gave the results of his observa-
tions to the resources and possibilities of our
new dependencies. He said the destiny of the
human race was to be guided in the future largely
by the Government of the United States. He added:

Ny observations among these people and those
Of China forcbly impressed upon me the impor-
lance OF ell institutions of learning devoting full
measure of effort to instng a spirit of chivalry
and patriotic devotion. It was to keep that spirit
fresh and strong that Alabama enacted the law
that the National flag should float over every
schoolhouse in the State.
The enjoyment Of peace is g blessed boon to hu-
manity. but the history of the world, from its
earliest periods teaches that the only security
for peace is to be always prepared and ready to

most certainly be able to avoid the desolatIon and

that we encourage martial spirit. the greatest

1t matters little how great its wealth. its excel

unprepared and indsposed to battle in its defence
forfeits the respect of the world
We are now great world Power, and the des-
tiny of the human race is in the future to be
largely guided by the influence exerted by this
Government This should be impressed upon the
rising generation, and the memory OF the flag
Of our country floating over the schoolhouse and
songs breathing patriotic devotion within walls
