ton Of great wealth in industrial
centers. Upon the success OF our
experiment much depends; not
only as regards our own welfare,
but as regards the welfare OF
mankind. If we fail, the cause OF
free self-government throughout
the world will rock to its founda-
tons; and therefore our RESPONSE
bility is heavy, to ourselves, to
the world as it is to-
day, and to the gen
erations yet unborn. There is no
good reason why we should fear
the future, but there is every rea-
son why we should face it seri-
ously, neither hiding from our
selves the gravity of the problems
before us nor fearing to approach
these problems with the unbend-
ing, unfinching purpose to solve
them Alright.
Yet, after all, though the prob
lens are new, though the tasks
set before us differ from the tasks
set before our fathers who found
ed and preserved this Republic.
the spirit in which these tasks
must be undertaken and these
problems faced, if our duty is to
be well done, remains essentially
unchanged. We know that no
people needs such high traits of
character as that people which
seeks to govern it's affairs Alright
through the freely expressed will
of the freemen who compose it.
But we have faith that we shall
not prove false to the memories
of the men of the mighty past.
They did their work, they left us
the splendid heritage we now en-
joy. We in our turn have an as
sured confidence that we shall be
able to leave this heritage I'M
wasted and enlarged to our chill
dren and our children's children.
To do so we must show, not mere
ly in great crises, but in the ev-
ery-day affairs of life, the quail
ties of practical intelligence, of
courage, of hardihood and endur-
ance, and above all the power of
devotion to a lofty ideal, which
made great the men who founded
this Republic in the days Of
Washington, which made great
the men who reserved this Re-
public in the days of Abraham
Lincoln.

Takes Oath of Office

as beseems a people with SUCH re-
sponsibilities. Toward all other
nations, large and small, our at
titude must be one of cordial and
sincere friendship. We must show
not only in our words Tut in our
deeds that we are earnestly deslr-
GUS of securing their good will by
acting toward them in a spirit
of just and generous recognition
of all their rights. But justice
and generosity in nation, as IN
an individual, count most when
shown not by the weak but by
the strong. While ever careful
to refrain from wronging others,
we mus be no less insistent that
we are not wronged ourselves.
We wish peace; but we wish the
peace of justice, the peace OF
Righteousness. We wish it because
we think it is right and not be-
cause we are afraid. No weak
nation that acts manfully and
Justly should ever have cause to
fear us, and no strong power
should ever be able to single us
out as a subject for insolent ag-
gression.
Our relations with the other
powers of the world are impor
tant; but still more important are
our relations among ourselves.
Such growth in wealth, in pOpu-
lation, and in power as this ma
ton has seen during the century
and a quarter of it's National life
is inevitably accompanied by a
like growth in the problems which
are ever before every nation that
rises to greatness. Power invar-
iably means both responsibility
and danger. Our forefathers faced
certain perils which we have out
grown. We now face other perils
the very existence of which ii
was Impossible that they should
foresee. Modern life is both com
pick and intense, and the tremen,
dous changes wrought by the ex'
traordinary industrial develop
ment of the last half century are
felt in every fiber of our social
and political being. Never before
have men tried so vast and for
midable an experiment as that Of
administering the affairs of con
tinent under the forms of dem
ocratic republic. The condition:
which have told for our marvel
GUS material well-being, which
have developed to very higf

GREAT NAVAL BATTLE EXPECTED
Russian Baltic Fleet Is Now Near the
Japanese.

Admiral Rojestvensky, with the first
Baltic squadron, has crossed the In
dian ocean, traversed the straits of
Malacca, passed Singapore and the
southern extremity of the Malay pen
insula and entered the China sea- He
has at last reached waters over which
the japanese war vessels have been
cruising for several months. In fact,
he has arrived at that point on his
course where it has been generally
believed Admiral Togo would be lying
in wait for him. Consequently, the
world is prepared to hear of a naval
engagement of the first order on the
high seas.
Rojestvensky has with him between
Guiding GOLFERS, transports and hos
pital vessels. The second Baltic squad
ron is far behind and can be of no
assistance If a battle is as imminent
as most people think Togo's strength
Is unknown. The Japanese have main
tanned their customary secrecy in re-
gard to the movements of their fleets
and the probable plan of naval cam
paign. 1t is safe to conclude, how
veer, that a good part of the Japanese
navy lies in RojestvensRy's track, for
1t is not needed elsewhere. and the
Japanese naval officers probably under
stand that they need great strength If
they are to administer blow that
will keep the Pacific clear of Russian
vessels till peace is declared
With such strict secrecy maintain
ed, it is, Of course, impossible to tell
where the Japanese will strike. 1t was
thought at one time that Togo would
attempt to intercept the enemy in the
straits of Malacca, but it is evident
that he has other plans. 1t was given
out not long ago that he would lure
the Russians up the Chinese coast and
attack them nearer home Whatever
the plan, the Japanese are probably
aware Of Rojestvensky's approach, for
scouts have been steaming over the
East Indian waters for weeks, and the
entire Japanese fleet is prepared to
act according to a program that was
perfected long ago. However much
it may be departed from. it is evident
that great sea fight can not be far
off.
