BUSTER BROWN

Buster Brown, with his faithful
pal. Tige, and forty others. mostly

House on next Saturday, March 16.
As a play actor" Buster has been
a success from the start.

he has plenty of money and is able
to pay spot cash for the damages
committed by Buster and Tige dur.
ing their revels from day to day.
The dear mother-in-law, whom the
father does not love as much as he
would lige to, plays an important
part in the story. Like most mother
in-laws she is ambitious and wants
Busters father to go into politics. She
fancies that such a move would
make him power in the world and
ultimately take them to Washington.
where she hopes to shine in society
with the Four Hundred, the admir-
alton Of millionaires and visiting
kings at the White House. To this
Buster Browns father objects. He
us loaded down with money and pre-
fers the quiet life which all rich
young men revel in. Fortunately.
Busters older sister relieves the sit
uation She is engaged TO an up-to-
date man who parts his hair i'm two
places i'm the middle. clips his SEN
fences according TO the fashion Of the
smart set and really longs TO enter
politics and lift the family name from
the vulgar mire Of commerce and
finance

child Of nature heartily favors his

Such is the situation when the

He said: 4 am sure the purpose
of Great Britain Is to take possession
of that country; II has minerals of
great wealth and our leading states
men and politicians are going to
keep up that controversy until there
is n war. and they will go in and
take possession. | don't know that
can do anything to stop It; I don't
believe can, but want TO see what
| can do. have no doubt OF the
outcome. It will be war, we will con-
quer the country, we will take posses
sion OF IL. but II will cost thousands
OF lives and many millions OF dollars;
and more than that. Il will leave be-
hind IT a race antagonism that gen
crations will not destroy
at all turned out as he said. The
war came on; the Beers were con-
quered; It cost Great Britain $4,000
lives and many millions OF dollars.
Great Britain owns that country to-
day; II is a country OF great mineral
wealth. yet all over that country
there is that antagonism which has
not abated them the right TO elect
their own Parliament, and the antag-
onism will endure for years
81 remember that / said to him {:
Sir Robert, 1t seems TO me that the
way Great Britain and Venezuela
nave managed their difficulties is inf
nitely better than the way Great Brit
ain has managed the Boer country.
Here this boundry matter has been
talked over calmly and quietly, and
IN a few days the affair will be fully
settled, there will have been no loss
of life and no millions of dollars of
expense
Great Britain, instead of insisting
upon her rigt to the whole of this
country she claimed, and enforcing
that right by the power of her war
vessels and her military, had sub
mitted it TO arbitration and the arbi-
tration resulted, as you all know, to
eyerybody's satisfaction, with no loss
of life and no great expense.
1T is we'll known to have been
possible, if not probable, that if we
had not declared war with Spain I'm
1898, If we had permitted negotia-
lions to continue for 30 days, we new
er would have had a war with Spain,
and Cuba would have been free from
spanish control, and we would not
have paid any more than we paid for
the Philippine Islands. And the af-
fair would have been settled without
loss OF life and would have avoided
the troublesome questions which are
already bothering the nation, so that
no one can tell the outcome of them.
i believe that today the great DOW
er of this nation as a world power is
not because it has a good navy, which
gives us a guarantee of peace: 1t is
not because of the size of our army.
but 1t is because of the commercial
power that we have manifested: Il
rs because of the wonderful genius
Tor social advancement that is being
manifested in this country, and one
OF the hopeful things in my judgment
today is the attention which is every
where being given to these ideas of
peaceful settlemet of all difficulties. "
