GODS PROVIDENCE.

These scattered incidents, thus dis
cursively brought together, in them
selves and in their implications, convey
/ the Providential lesson which no living
man can intelligently resist. For eighty
years these islands have apparently
| been under special protection of Al
| mighty God, as plainly as the Israelites
under their leader, Moses. We're during
| their forty years travel through the
! wilderness. Noble, able, and intensely
earnest men have been instrulnentali-
ties in the labor of evangelization and
of civilization, who are still represent
| ed among you and to whom it would be
a pleasure to refer That inviting part
of my subject. as localized, however.
is beyond my present opportunity.
ESTABLISHED UNDER DOLE.
led you briefly to the realization of the
fact that, in the half century before the
Young Mems Christian Association was
of Judge Sanford B. Dole, Hawaii had
steadily advanced not only materially,
but Intellectually, morally and spirit
ually, and had become identified with
the Christian civilization of the world.
Every preliminary had been adjusted
for the special work that your 4Asso-
citation is so well qualified to do. AS
early as October 18th, 1862, an Epis-
copal Bishop, the predecessor of Bishop
Restarick, had laid the foundation of
an Episcopal diocese. All other lead
ing Christian denominations We're or
ganized. In 1863, the American Board
OF Missions had practically retired from
it's missionary labors on the islands,
which had become self-supporting. The
Roman Catholic Church was fully es-
tablished and active. Father Damien
was pursuing those self-denying activ-
tiles, to which his life was sacrificed.
Priests and ministers of ability, learn
ing and devotion were settled in every
direction. Schools, colleges, hospitals,
philanthropical institutions We're even
unusually prominent and effective. In
all their forms, the effects of Chris
tian civilization had been manifested.
THE BEGINNING.
1t was under such suspicious condi-
tions-officers and members of the
Young Mems Christian Association of
Hollolulu--that your special labors be-
gan. They have been vigorous, sys-
tematic and successful. They have
been and they will be themes for many
instructive summaries. In 1898, your
president, Walter C. Weldon, said that
your Association stands midway be-
tween the church and the world 1t
does stand close to the open portals of
the church, wherever they may be, and.
through them leads thousands OF young
men to the Cross of Christ, and to the
higher walks of citizenship. There are
cooperating agencies, each distinctly
marked, all around you. st. Andrews
brotherhood is here. The Young Mems
Institute is here. The Christian En-
deavorers are here. The Salvation
Army Is here Kindred organizations
of many kinds are here. Evangelical

PRESIDENT ROOSEvELT'S
LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE
Republican Executive INDUCES in a General Ar
gument to Support the Stand Pat Theory
as Applied to Various Departments.

Oyster Bay, \. Y, Sept. 12.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's letter accepting the
Republican nomination for the presi-
dency has been made public It is in
part as follows:
It is difficult to find out from the ut
terai1ces Of our opponents what are the
real issues upon which they propose 10
wage this campaign. 1t IS not unfair
TO say that, having abandoned most of
the principles upon which they have in
sisted during the last eight years. they
now seem at loss both as to what it
IS that they really believe and as to
how firmly they shall assert their be
lief in anything. In fact, ii is doubt
ful II they venture resOlutely to press
single issue. AS soon as they raise
one they shrink from it and seek to
explain II away.
The party now in control of the gov
eminent Is troubled by no such diff
culties. We do not have TO guess at
our own convictions ana then correct
the guess If it seems unpopular. The
principles which we profess are those
IL which we believe with heart and
soul and strength. Men may differ
from us. but they cannot accuse us OF
thickness or inSinccrity. The policies
we have pursued are those which We
earnestly hold rs essential to the ma
tional welfare and Tepute. Our ac-
lions speak even louder than our words
for the faith that Is in us. We base
our appeal upon what we have done
and are doing, upon our record of adj
ministration and legislation during the
last seven years, in which we have had
complete control of TIE government.
We intend in the future to carry on
the government in the same way that
we have carried it on in the past.
SO we'll has the work been done that
our opponents do not venture to recite
the facts about our policies or acts and
then oppose them. They attack them
only when they have first miSrcpresent-
ed them, for Il truthful recital would
leave no room for adverse comment.
Panama.
Panama offers an instance in point
Our opponents can criticise what We
did in Panama only on condition of
misstatinG what was done. The admin
istration behaved throughout not only
with good faith, but with extracrdi-
nary patience and large generosity to-
ward those with whom it dealt. 1t was
also mindful of American interests. 1t
acted in strict compliance with the law
passed by congress. Had not Panama
been promptly recognized and the
transit across the isthmus kept open
in accordance with our treaty rights
and obligations there would have en-
sued endless guerrilla warfare and
possibly foreign complications, while
all chance of building the canal would
have been deferred certainly for years,
perhaps for a generation or more.
Criticism OF the action in this matter
Is .simplE criticism OF. the only possible
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1904-09-12

action which could have secured the
building of the canal as well as the
peace and quiet which we were by
treaty bound to preserve along the
line of transit across the iSthmuS. The
service rendered this country in secur-
ing the perpetual right to construct,
maintain. operate and defend the canal
was 50 great that our opponents do not
venture to raise the issue in straight
forward fashion, for If so raised there
would be no issue.
The decisive action which brought
about this beneficent result was the
exercise by the president Of the pow
ers vested III him, and in him alone, by
the constitution, the power to recog-
niZe foreign governments by entering
into diplomatic relations with them
and the power to make treaties which
when ratified by the senate become M
der the constitution part of the supreme
law OF the land. Neither in this nor in
any other matter has there been the
slightest failure to live up to the con
stitutiOn in letter and in spirit. But
the constitution must be observed pos
itively as we'll as negatively. The pres
ident's duty is to serve the country IN
accordance with the constitution. and
l should he derelict in my duty If
used false construction of the consti-
tuition as Il shield for weakness and III
nudity or as an excuse for govern
mental impotence.
Foreign Policy.
Similar Misrepresentation is the one
weapon of our opponents In regard TO
our foreign policy and the way the
navy has been made useful in carry
ing out this policy. Here again all
that we ask is that they truthfully
state what has been done and then
say whether or not they object TO it,
for if continued in power we shall con
tinue our foreign policy and our han
ding of the navy on exactly the same
lines in the future as in the past To
what phase of our foreign policy and
10 what use of the navy do our oppO-
nents object? DO they object to the
way in which the Monroe doctrine has
been strengthened and upheld? Do
our opponents object TO what was done
in reference to the petition of Ameri-
can citizens against the Kishineff
massacre, or to the protest against the
treatment of the Jews in Roumania
or to the efforts that have been made
In behalf of the Armenians in Turkey +?
No other administration in our his
tory, no other government in the
world, has more consistently stood for
the broadcast spirit of brotherhood in
our common humanity or has held a
more resolute attitude of protest
against every wrong that outra ged the
civilization of the age at home or
abroad. Do our opponents object to
the fact that the international tribunal
at The Hague was rescued from i'm
potence and turned into a potent in
strument for peace among the nations?
Do our opponents object to the set

The Tariff.

When we take UP the great question
of the tariff we are II once confronted
by the doubt as 10 whether Our oppO-
nents do or do not mean what they
say. They say that protection is
robbery and promise to carry them
selves accordingly if they are given
power Yet prominent persons among
them assert that they do not really
mean this and that if they come into
power they will adopt our policy as

we are confronted by their irreconcila-

and their readiness for the sake Of

abandon the principles upon which they
have insisted as essential. In their
platform they declare for Independence
