Secretary of War Speaks on the Phil.
 fppfnes, Panama and the Army.

CHICAGO, Feb. g. - Secretary of War William H. Taft before an audi ence which filled the Auditorium to the doors delivered an oration upon "The Army and the Republic"
 He spoke under the auspices of the Union League club of this city, which for years has made feature of the celebration of the birthday of Washing ton.
 , The secretary addresasslsS eg0 seaeoi children on .The Philippines" telling at considerable length of the progress that is being made in educating the Filipinos according to American stans. ards. At the banquet held in the Un- ion League clubhouse be discussed the Panama canal.
 In opening his address Secretary Taft declared that his work had for so long been of such an exclusive character that he did not know anything about anything except the Philippines, the Panama canal. the army and the best method of organizing a matrimonial eX. cursion.
 The secretary spoke at considerable length. discussing the organization, needs and requirements of the army. urging strongly upon his hearers that they support both the army and the navy in such q manner that both could be maintained at state of the high. est possible efficiency. He dwelt with emphasis upon the necessity of being prepared for war as the surest guaran- tee of peace. The words of George Washington in this connection, he said. are even more true today than when they were uttered, for the reason that the country is now very much closer in touch with the other nations of the world than it was in the days of Wash. ington.

 The balloon shot 400 feet into the air and started toward the southeast.
 The balloon descended very close to the Erie train that was taking the club members back to New York. Several members were close beneath when the balloon came down in the road in the village of Ramsey.
 IL was agreed in the presence of Mir. Levee at the Aero clutA that cheap wa ter gas such as that used would never again be employed at club ascensions.
 Many members Of the Aero club reached here on q special train from New York. accompanied by Aeronaut Levee. The latter's balloon. the Lark, was in the baggage car in canvas cov- ering
 This ascension is the second of a se- ries planned by the Aero Club of Amer. lea, which hopes to duplicate in Ameri- ca the popularity which ballooning has achieved in Paris. h the club are sd- mirers of aerial navigation in all three of its phases. including advocates of dirigible sirships. auxiliary balloons. which are balloons fitted with light gasoline engines to be used when the wind fails as a motive power. just as small sailing craft are so fitted. and the ordinary balloon.

 PEORIA, H., Feb. 23.-The eighth annual banquet of the Creve Occur club. with Thomas W. Lawson, Rear Admiral Schley. A. B. stickney and Congressmen J. Adam Bede and Charles A. Towne as the principal speakers, was held at the Coliseum last night. Eight hundred guests sat down to the tables, while 1,50O persons, in- cluding many women, crowded the gal | leries.
 George T. Page. president of the Illi- nois Bar association, was toastmaster. | MT. Lawson after thanking the Creve Occur club for the happy way in which l 1t had smoothed away a misunder standing which arose between him and the club led up to the subject of the in- surance companies and the system" with review of the political upheaval in various parts of the United States.
 He said In part: Chicago arose and surprised the world by turning out the organized grafters and political parties and pro- claiming for municipal ownership. Now, I am no municipal ownershipist, but the fact that the people of the greatest city in your state found vent for their feelings in municipal owner ship means nothing more than that the people spoke and in impressive tones. If 1t had not been municipal ownership 1t would have been something else, which only meant that they had begun to feel the fetters
 Next came Philadelphia, where the people arose between night and morn ing and marched the streets in lawful mobs and drove out of their strong holds the most snugly intrenched band of political grafters this country has ever seen, drove them into exile and disgrace, as though they had been group of mice pursued by an army of elephants.
 Soon came an overturn in Florida, notoriously boss ridden by the Flaglers and the Standard Oil clique, when one man, a fearless citizen, Napoleon B. Broward, rose out of the ranks of the people and in his begrimed tugboat overalls stumped the state and was elected governor for four years. .
 ''In New York the fearless Jerome, turned down by each and all the differ ent political parties, was elected with thousands of votes to spare.
 'In Wisconsin you know what La Toilette is doing with the people at his back.
 These are but a few instances of how during the last twenty months the people have shown the spirit that is in them"
 Mir. Lawson referred to the failure of the Devln properties in Kansas and to the peculations of Bank President Big selowi of Milwaukee as system repre- :, sentatives who stubbed their toes while speculating with other persons money in a game of heads I win, tails you lose" In this way Mir. Lawson led up to the exposition of his financial views, which are familiar to the reading pub tc
