FL 1ltimo discurso que ha
pronunciado ell presidente Roo
sevelt en- Chicago, esta en- len
guas de los periodicos europeos.
"El vigoroso mozo que puede
con Ell Kaiser, mata un oso Use
apodera de un fuerte espanol"--
como dice una cancion popular
entire los yankis-ha pronuncia-
do TN discurso imperialista.
Tema del discurso: la doctri-
ma de Monroe. Los Estados
Unidos-dice-tienen mas inte-
reses que cualquiera naci6n de
Europa en- la America latina.
Hay, pues, que evitar que una
potencia europea Sc permlta
una intrusion, por pequeila que
sea, en- ell territoriO de dicho
hemisferio. La construction
del canal istmico es cosa de los
americanos y de nadie mas.
Para SOstener la dOCtrina de
Monroe contra las intruSiones
de Europa, el presidente Roo
Isevelt entiende que la Rep1bli-
Ca de la Union debe apoyarse en-
la fuerza. Esta fuerza tiene
que ser representada por una
marina muy fuerte.
Y el presldente termino di-
'ciendo:
"Ya tenemos esan 4rina. Si-
IgamOs COnstruyendo barcos de
guerra. Podemos estar seguros
de que ning1n peligro amenaza-
ra a la nacion y de'que ninguna
pQtencia extranjera vendra a
buscarnos camorra con motive
de Ia doctrida de Monroe"
O en- otros terminus: tenga-
mos 1nuchos acorazados, Cruce-
ros, torpederos Y suhmarios, y,
en- nombre Ge Monroe, podre-
mos coneter toda clase de desa-
fueros en- America y tambien
en- Europa.
La actitud imperialista y bell
Cosa del presidente Roosevelt
ha coincidido con I'm acto sin
gular del embajador de los Es-
tados Unidos en- Berlin.
Sabido es que los represen-
tantes diplomaticos de la Rep1-
blica norteamericana venfan ne
gandose a vestir el uniforme de
embajadar en- las festas palacie-
gas de las Cortes europeas. Sc
ha contado, a este prop6sito,
que el Emperador Napoleon III
trabaj6 mucho por conseguir
que Ell embajador americana
trocase el frac por Ell uniforme
y que, acorralado por elSobera-
mo, salio del paso contestando
bruscamente que el represen-
tante de una gran Republica no
podia vestirse de "mojiganga'.
Entonces Ia gran Rep1blica
no era imperialista. Hoy 10 es,
y el embajador americana en-
Berlin, Mr.. Carlomagno Toover,
vestfa rico uniforme, bordado
de orc, en- la brillante fiesta que
dio enla Embajada a mas de mil
personals de la Corte imperial.
Acorazados, cruceros, torpe-
deros, submarines, con otros

BENJAMIN B. ODELL
FATHER OF THE GOVERNOR OF
NEW YORK STATE, A POWER
IN POLITICS.

The Hon. Benjamin b. Odell. OF New
burg N. Y, father of an illustrious
family of sons, writes the following
letter which he hopes will be read
by every man and woman in Aemrica:
Some years ago my life was fairly
made miserable by pain and distress

MISSISSIPPI FLOODS.

All roads lead to Rome was the
axiom among the anclents that used
to emphasize the Importance of tha,
city in Its days of splendor. So it may
be said shat all streams flow to the
Mississippi from the greater part OF
vast territorial area of the nation
Hence when rains are unusually fire.
Guent and floods prevail, the father
of waters is mighty torrent that de-
ties all limitations. The river bed of
this great stream. for a long distance
thru the south. is restricted by levees
on either side, because some of the
finest farming sections border upon the
river. These levees of ordinary earth
work in many places protect wide
of level territory, and If a
break occurs and the land is flooded
homes must be deserted and great dam
age follows. 1t is possible on such oc-
casions for steamboat of ordinary
size and draught to pass from the river
thru this breach and travel all over the
adjacent country.
Just now the Mississippi. in period
cal evolution, is on another rampage,
and is arousing the greatest appre-
nension. AS the waters rise the levees
ire being guarded by sentlnels.. tho it
s not probable that they will succeed
n throttling the great stream, as the
present seems but the beginning of a
mighty flood.

OUTSIDE POINT OF VIEW

Certainly the Good Book teaches toll.

any standpoint is not exactly q sin-a

Randments. Sometimes it would be a
relief If he would do something awful.
Use 'cuss words" as it We're Then ii
would b worth while 10 forgive him
once, or as many times as necessary.
But the little irritating things our
friends do, often unconsciously. we can
not forgive. can not forget, and there
fore we tolerate. This Is n sermonette
in favor of more of this virtue.
For instance, my neighbor has al

with a long scratch. Here's where the
virtue of liberation comes in. Our
reighbor had to tolerate Thomas, and
Mrs. ID. tolerated H-- Ut. At

EXCURSION TO SHILOH.
Like those of Iowa. the civil war

Il Like those of Iowa, the civil war vet.
Grams of Indiana are preparing for d
trip to the battlefield of Shiloh in Ten
/ nessee, on the anniversary of the con-
I test, April 6 and Z, on account of tbs
dedication of state monuments to tbs
Indiana visit takes the form of popu-
lar excursion, with low rates of fare to
all who may choose to go. 1t will be q
grand trip, partly by rail and the re-
mainder by a fleet of steamboats, up
! the beautiful Tennessee river. The cost
of the journey. including meals and
travelling expenses, will be from SIG to
S22, according to the starting poinr in
Indiana. The excursion train will leave
Indianapolis on April 4. and returning
will reach that city on April 8. The
dedication program will be the best that
has ever been presented on battle
field, the participants including many
prominent men.
Among the prominent citizens of In
diana who will go with this excursion,
and who have signified their intention
of going. are: Major General Lew Wall
lace Of Charlottesville, Ind, the only
surviving major general who fought on
either side at Shiloh, and who is also
the author of Ben Hur;" Hon. Win
field L. Durbin, governor of indiana,
and his staff; Hon. Albert j. Beveridge,
United States senator from Indiana;
Hon. Charles w. Fairbanks, United
States senator from Indiana: Major
General r. S. Foster. of Indianapolis.
Ind; General George r. McGinnis. post
master at Indianapolis; General John
w. Coburn, Indianapolis; General
General James r. Carnahan, Indian
apohs; and many Others, including
Captain w. II. Morshon, 1.-The drummer
boy of Shiloh"
Some of the pleasant features will be
the balmy spring air and doors, the
of the several state delegations,
the greeting Of many distinguished
who fought on the other
side, and the viewing OF the quiet
grove embowered site where more than
/ 900 men lost their lives in the two
days of gigantic struggle that occurred
ferty-one years ago.

HAS THE NATION ENOUGH MONEY!

The little furry in New York a few
days ago caused by big failure, to-
gethar with the unloading OF stocks on
the market as a result OF low bank re-
serves, did not disturb the nation but
in the metropolis where the excitement
occurred it led financiers to put on their
thinking caps to see whether there was
tany real cause for alarm, and to seek
to solve the question whether the
money supply is equal to the demand.
In the east the moneyed men deeply de-
plore the failure of the Aldrich bill,
which would have provided for greater
expansion. A financial writer In the
Sun notices that bank reserves are low,
but they have reached 4 point beyond
Something always has happened in the
past when reserves hava fallen as low
as they now are to speedily build them
up again. Acutely and Immediately
there does not seem to be any need of
worrying. The needs of the farmers of
the country for money for use in the
spring are always much less than they
are in the fall, and the movement of
currency indicates that the heaviest
part of these demands for the present
season has been met.
But" he says, 1T would be idle to
deny that in a broader sense the money
situation is causing some serious re-
Election. Apart from routine business
matters it is the chief topic OF discus
sion in all the great banking and COM
mission houses down town, the query
taking this general form. Have we, as
a matter of fact, enough money with
which to conduct the financial opera
tons of the country at their present
rate and volume?' Those raising the
question admit and lay great stress

OF course if every family had the
