St Louis, July 1.-The following is the speech of Hon. Champ Clark of Missouri, permanent chairman of the national con- vention, delivered today:
 Tn his haste King David said that all men are liars" Had he been in Chicago while Senator Henry Cabot Lodge was reading the republican platform he would no doubt have pronounced the same opin- ion more leisurely, for surely there never was more mendacity packed Into the same space in any document purporting to be a grave state paper:
 Shakesjeare says:
 Thrice Is he armed. that hath his quarrel
 just;
 And he but naked, though locked up in
 steel
 Whose conscience with injustice is cor
 rupted
 In the impending conflict our quarrel ts just and we are in the right beyond all cavfl
 To state it in a general way our con- tention is that the government shall be restored to the democratic-republican basis on which the fathers of the republic intended it to rest and shall be made once more government for the people, by the people and for the people, instead of a government of classes, by the classes and for the classes.
 To state 1t with more particularly, we insist that exorbtant taxation shall be reduced to just and reasonable rates; that extravaganza in appropriations shall cease; that all departments shall be thor oughly investigated from top to bottom by congressional committees that all evil doers of whatever degree shall be driven from the public service and properly pun ished; that the trusts shall be proceeded against by indictment as are common among smaller criminals; that the con- stftution accompanies the American flag In our new possessions.
 The proposition that we must support President Roosevelt's Philippine policy if he has any, right or wrong. Is the yerlest rot-a tale told by an idiot I am willing to go as far as anyone in patriot ism: l will support my country in any emergency; but President Roosevelt Is not the country. The time has not yet arrived-I pray Almighty God that 1t will never arrive-when the American people will accept the arrogant dictum of Louis XIV, if repeated by an American Presi- dent-'I am the state" If President Roosevelt is at all worthy of his high po- sition he must entertain a supreme con- tempt for the political suplejacks. partlc- ularly for those claiming to be democrats who so about with sanctmonious moan. saying:

Suppose that when George IT. unuertooK to force our fathers to pay the stamp tax Patrick Henry. instead of delivering that great lyric speech before the Virginia house of Burgesses, which precipitated the revolu- tion and which still stirs the heart like strains of martial music, had risen in his place and said gently as a sucking dove:

Instead of being the richest. most pussant republic in all the flood of time. we would still be En- glish colonies, ruled by British consuls and governor generals, without any voice whatever in the government under which we live.

MAGNATES HEAR
DILLON CASE
Manager Morley Presents
His Side and Makes a Good
ShOwing-ScheduIe Novel

The directors OF the Pacific Coast
Baseball League met last night In the
Office of President Bert and com
pleted their arrangements for the
forthcoming season. Those in attend
ance were: President Bert, Henry
Harris and Theodore Goodman. of San
Francisco; J. Cal Ewing Of Oakland,
Mike Fisher of Tacoma. Parke Wilson
of Seattle and James F. Morley of Los
Angeles.
Henry Harris. as chairman OF the
schedule committee, presented the list
Of dates for the season OF eight
months. The novel feature OF this
is that San Francisco is left without
baseball for weeks in the height OF the
season This was found necessary in
order to give the other cities on the
circuit a proper proportion OF games.
After the meeting adjourned Man
ager Morley of Los Angeles asked per-
mission to bring up, informally. the
case of Captain Dillon. the crack
first baseman of the Los Angeles team.
He then put his case before his asso-
ciates in a much palmer light than il
had been presented heretofore. He
showed where Ned HanlOn had acted
outside his official capacity as a repre-
sentative of the Minor League, the lat
ter organization not having acted on
the Dillon case. HanlOn used his con-
nection with that body to further the
interests of his Brooklyn National
League Club, for which he wants
Dillon.
President Bert said no formal demand
has been made for Dillon. Manager
Morley will appeal his case to the re-
Gently organized National Commits
sion, the Supreme Court of the base
ball world. and expects favorable de-
cision. which will enable him to re-
tain Dillon.

the sturdy amateur heavyweights who
are to box the main event at the San

Woodward's Pavilion Friday night,
are both in good shape for the en-

this match, as the winner expects to
meet Sam Berger for the coast heavy

is not the Sullivan who fought Berger
at Mechanics Pavilion recently. owen
has never been defeated.
The two O'Briens promise to keep
the spectators on their feet all dur
ing their bout. Telegraph Hill Jack
says he will surely beat his namesake
Friday night.
Jack Grey, who is to meet Charley
Sloat, is pronounced one of the most
promising amateurs in the State. The
other bouts. ten i'm all. are all good
ones and Woodward's will no doubt
be crowded Friday night. Alex Greg
