T maintain the heritage of our fathers,
we may we'll take hi mas pattern of
the man who knew so we'll how to as
sert the highest principles, and to
stand up for them IN the lace of
ignorance or misunderstanding, or
even of strong opposition and of tenn
porary or threatened obloquy. And he
has most worthy successors among
your leaders of to-day.
Those of you who, in opinion, con-
stitute the majority of the members
OF these two bodies, and myself and
all in general agreement with us, must,
perforce, look at the questions now be-
fore the country in our double capacity
as Americans and as partisans of GER
tain well-defined principles. We be-
lieve that the application of these
PRINCIPLES has carried us thus far in
our career as a people no less than
as a na.lon, and tnat every departure
from them has been, and is still,
fraught either with danger or disaster.
The Fundamental Principles of Gov.
ernment.
Nothing can convince US, and moth
ing should swerve US from our Ingram
ed conviction, that an lnuehnlle eALon-
sion of the powers tof government,
either at home or abroad, is neither
American nor safe; that the levy of
any money for taxes, which cannot be
collected without fearsDr favor, or with
cut comforting undue privileges upon
persons or interests; or that is not
needed for purely public purposes, can,
be- anything but eprilosu or that the
failure vigorously to enforce the GRIM
tnal laws by the punishment of all
guilty men, whatever their offence or
their nominal standing in the COM
munity, can be other than fatal to
justice and violatiye Of all precepts,
whether divine or human.
While these three piln.ary questions
are closely connected, there has been
manifest. Of late years, a strange tend
enrn,vr to overlook the intimate relations
which the two last named, must bear
to each other. Every serious evil with
which our society Is now either affect
ed or threatened, has grown out of the
abuse OF the taxing power of the Gov
ernment. 1t is nearly half century
since we finally consented to levy
federal taxes for purpose other than
that Of meeting the real needs OF Cow
ternment. During all the preceding
periods Of our history this policy had
been concealed behind the plea Of In
rant Industries. or appeals for indie
;pendence Of some vague butkhrewdly
chosen enemy. A purely protective
duty vas not advocated as good. or
even right. In and OF itself. or even
mentioned without apology. It was de-
tended only - an expedient. never
g 2 policy to be adopted or applied
permanently. & IS; 4; {;

COWBOYS TO CONTEST
In Steer Roping Feats at Oklahsne
City.

City.
Associated Press to The Evening Tisnes.
Oklahoma City, Okla, March 49,
Oklahoma City Ia today the Mecca for
cattlemen from all over the Southwest.
The occasion is the annual conven-
tion of the Oklahoma Live Stock as
ISOLATION and the Midland Valley Live
stock show, for both of which events
preparations have been in progress
since last November. The formal
opening of the double event took place
today and the gathering will continue
till the end of the week.
The feature of the gathering that fs
OF most interest to the general public
is the roping contest for championship
honors. 1t is believed that this will
be the last opportunity the country
will have to witness one of these con-
tests as Oklahoma is the only place
where it is now permitted and with
the coming of statehood the sport will
probably be prohibited by the law.
Expert cowboys from the Panhandle
country and other section have been
practicing for the contests for months.
For the championship the contestants
will include Ellison Carroll, of Man
sum; Clay McConigill, of Midland,
Texas, and Tom Veist, of Carlsbad.
Carroll at the present time holds the
championship. He won the honors at
San Antonio last year. At this ex-
hibition Carroll roped twenty-eight
steers in eighteen minutes and fifty
two seconds. He hopes to beat his
own record here this week.

pocket the money. But what the war
and navy departments want to know
is whether in case of trouble in the
far east. the Germans, Japanese,
French and English will be kind
enough to transport our troops and
supplies?
To an unprejudiced observer it
would appear that perhaps the inter-
ests Of these nations might conflict
with ours and their shipowners might
find that they had other pressing busi-
ness to attend to at such time. Such
possibilities are not expected to weigh
much with the rabid friends of for
eign steamship owners who are ap-
parently determined to keep our COM
merce In the hands Of our competitors,
but they may be seriously considered
by those who have the interests of
their country at heart and who do not
go on the theory that in time of war,
even with our tremendous resources,
we can SOW a bunch of steel-plates at
night and reap an auxiliary navy Of
fully manned and equipped vessels, the
following day.

Material Development and its Natu.
raj Results.
But the time came when the world
made unexpected unforeseen demands
upon us for food and the raw materials
OF manufacture. In order to meet
these, our people, with renewed en-
ergy, turned their attention to the
development of their internal resourc-
es They brought large areas of land
under tillage, opened mines, increas-
ed their facilities for internal trans
port, and began to draw from lavish
natural resources, which, in time, they
came fondly to think of as almost
boundless. This left them little time
to watch the growth of taxation, levied
not for its own sake, but a system
which poured four dollars into the
pockets of special interests and in
dividuals, while leaving one dollar for
the government.
Almost silently there accumulated
in our communities the wealth that
came from ability and enterprise, and
from the quick apprehension of op-
portunltles. Its possession ac-
counts for comfortable and even
luxurious homes, high standard
OF comfort, artistic tastes, and the gen.
eral diffusion of education and cul-
ture. This wealth came slowly and
surely. as the natural reward of in
dustry, and brought with it multiplied
blessings, and no social or political
rerils.
New Order, and q New Kind of
Wealth
All at once, with growth like
Jonah's gourd, there came to. our
people the knowledge of a new kind
Of wealth. Individual fortunes, a.
mounting to hundreds of millions of
dollars, were seen to be the product
of few years devotion to a single
industry. in which, by its laws, the
government had doubled or trebled the
value of3the wares before they reached
the consumer. Without doubt, great
organizing genius, with the gift of
sweating both human brains and hu-
man bodies, had been applied to the
work of making these gains but in
spite of this. there emerged from the
American steel and iron industry. no
Bessemer or Siemens. no great original
master process, which. bringing its
due and proper reward to the inventor
or the discoverer, makes the whole
world better as we'll as richer. Under
our system, government subsidies took
from the American consumer the fruits
OF the ability and the ingenuity of these
great men, and enabled chosen few
to pocket most Of the profits for them
selves.

ed. here and there. against these ex-
