One Memorial Day Speech.

That was an undignitied spectacle
Memorial day at Arlington cemetery,
when President Roosevelt turned the
occasion OF veneration for our heroic
dead into political speech unfolding
his admins tration OF affairs in the
Philippines. The occasion was one on
which good Americans had assembled
to pay their tribute TO the brave men
who fought for the preservation OF the
union and for other brave men who
fought against The oppression of u
CtyIant kingdom over astruggling peo-
pie of inferior strength and republican
aspirations. The president dared to
allude to the criticism of army meth
DDS ia the Philippines which is being
made in the highest legislative body
in the land. He cited the charges that
were made against the north in the
civil war and spoke with evidentpride
of "the singular humanity with which
the war is being conducted against the
Filipinos." The administration is in
a bad way when it is obliged to take
advantage of Memorial day to execute
feelings against the honest and patri-
otto men who are trying to get to the
bottom of the stories and testimony
of soldiers and civilians to the effect
that the American army in the Phil
ippines has been STOPPING to barbarity
such as is not tolerated by the code of
this republic or that of other enlight-
ened nations. The president has shown
bad taste to say the least. His ad-
dress was not In harmony with the
spirit of Memorial day and his State
ment; "We would have been justified
by Abraham Lincoln IS rules Of war in
infinitely greater severity than has
been shown" was an insult to the in
telIigence Of his auditors. Omaha

A Letter to DR.. Pierce
is the First Step to
Health for Weak
and Sick Women.

Sick women are invited to con.
suit DR.. Pierce, by letter, free, and
under seal of the strictest privacy.
In little over thirty years of prac-
tice as chief consulting physician
to the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y,
DR.. Pierce, assisted by his staff Of
nearly score of physicians, has
treated and cured over half mil
lion women. Address DR.. R. v.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
Offers of "free medical advice
made in imitation of DIR. Pierce's
offer of free consultation BY letter
are advertised by persons who are
not physicians, and are not quail
fed to give medical advice. Every
woman should consult her own
safety by careful inquiry into the
genuineness of such offers.
There Is no offer similar to DR..
Pierce's, which has behind it an
institution of national note, such
as the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, with its
staff of nearly a score of ply
sicians, presided over by a special
list of DR.. Pierce's experience and
success, in the treatment and cure
of diseases peculiar to women.

RECREATION FOR WORKERS.
The sdcinl Halls Association, of New
York, Plans for Clean Places
of Entertainment.

The Social Halls association, of New
York, has made rapid progress in it's
scheme for providing clean places of
entertainment for the working men
and women of the East side. Architect
Newton Phelps Stokes has completed
two plans for the $4,000 building,
which is to be erected to start the
scheme. About $4,000 will be paid
for site. The eight-story structure
will have on the ground floor res
taurant and cafe, on the second floor
large hall, and on the upper floors
lodge and club rooms to accommodate
the numerous clubs of the East side.
A roof garden will be constructed to
round out the plans.
One of the directors was asked d.
reetly tha other day if liquor was to
be sold. Eve have provided for the
sale Of the best light wines and beer"
was the decisive reply. "Our aim is
to provide q clean and attractive place
to drink in and to hold balls and club
and lodge meetings in"

full thrust ut lingo prophets, which was
very much relished by all VINO heard II
and will be relished by all who read
this letter:
I think my friends of the majority
whatever else they may claim-and they
can rightly olalm great deal that is good
and credjtable for themsclves-will not
claim to be prophets. They used to
prophesy good deal two years ago. We
had great prophets and minor prophets.
All predicted peace and submission and a
flag followed by trade. with wealth flow
ing over this land from the far cast and
the American people standing in the Phil
ippine' Islands looking over with eager
gaze toward China. Where are now your
prophets which prophesied unto you? I
fear that We must make the answer that
was made to the children of Israel. '"rhey
prophesiad falsely, and the prophets have
become wind. and the word is not in
them"
AS to the character Of the war being
waged in the Philippines he uttered
the following classical passage:
A guerrilla warfare carried on by
weaker people against a stronger, is
recognized and legitimate. Many nations
have resorted to 1t. Our war of the Revo-
luton In many parts Of the country diff
fered little from it. Spain carried 1t on
against Napoleon when the French forces
overran her territory. and mankind SYM
pathized with her. The greatest of Eng
lish poets since Milton William Woros-
worth described that warfare in a noble
sonnet. which will answer with scarcely
the change of word, as a description of
the Filipino people:
Hunger and sultry heat and nipping
blast
From bleak hilltop. and length Of march
by night
Through heavy swamp or over snow clad
height
These hardships Ill sustained, these dan
gers past
The rowing Spanish bands are reached at
last
Charged and dispersed like foam; but as
flight
OF scattered auails by signs do reunite,

chased
With combination OF long practiced art
And newly kindled hope But they are
fled.
Gone are they, viewless as the buried
Where now? Their sword is at the foe
mans heart.
And thus from year to year his walk they
thwart
And hang like dreams around his guilty
bed"
believe the American army, officers
and soldiers. to be made up Of as brave
and humane men, in general. as ever

The Bankers Crisis.

Mr.. Horace White of the New York
Evening Post, before the bankers as
ISOLATION at Kansas City advocated
the asset currency scheme of the Indi-
annapolis monetary commission as out
lined in the Fowler bill pending be-
fore Congress. Mr.. White apprehends
the paymentof the bonded debt of the
United States, the present basis of
the national bank notes, and demands
that: "Anybody who objects to the
Indianapolis plan is bound to offer a
better one, since the present bond
securing system of note issue is doom
ed"
Mr.. White approves of the asset
currency, based upon the individual
responsibility of the banks. AS an
expression of the democratic senti-
ment of the community the PLAIN
DEALER suggests suggests an asset
currency based upon the entire assets
of the country, and be issued by the
United States alone, put in circulation
in payment for services rendered and
for salaries of public officers and made
legal tender for debt, and receivable
by the United States for all customs
dues and taxes, as the only fund Tor
their redemption. This would be an
ideal asset currency, a currency that
would save to the public the interest
upon bonds used to secure the present
note system of the banks aud provide
currency that would represent the
entire wealth of all the people of the
United States, And for pocket change,
perhaps 1T might be polite to permit
the coinage of silver as in early days
of the republic, into dollars and sub
Sidiary coin for persons bringing silver
bullion to the minis, upon equal terms
with gold coinage.
When the money crisis looked for
and predicted 10y Mr.. White comes,
the money question will be again at
the front, though at present obscured
by the tariff, the trusts and the i'm
perial tendencies prevalent in admin
istration circles.

AMONG THE CYCLISTS
Local Racing Prospects Still in
Doubt-Game Will Flour
ish in the East.

The few racing men now in the city
are on the anxious seat about the out
look for the sport in this city the COM
ing summer. and many Of them are
wondering whether there viii be any
races at ali. The owners Of the local
track announce that they viii have
races this year. but further than this
nothing can be learned. When the
season will open and who the riders
viii be has not been announced, and
many are wondering where these rid
ers viii come from.
The east seems to be the mecca for
the racing men this year on account
Of the number Of new tracks being
constructed. Tracks must have rid
ers and the latter are going where
they can secure the most money. Pro-
noters in their efforts to secure attrac-
tons viii bid against each other and
in consequence this year promises to
be a harvest for the eastern racing
men. With these facts in sight it rs
hard to figure what viii become of the
game in the west.
