Tennessee Man Speaks Ironically
Of President.
SAYS We INVITED WAR WITH JAPAN
WHEN WE TOOK THE PHILIP.

OWN MONROE DOCTRINE

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Frazier OF
Tennessee, in the senate today used the
san Francisco school case to empha-
size the opposition to encrOachment OF
the federal government upon the
United States. He declared the Jap
anese had no ground upon which to
stand in their demands. Frazier said
be believed the president should have
50 constructed the treaty, and should
have notified the Japanese government
accordingly.
IF Japan should make war upon
so fimsy a cause it would shock the
civilized world. However. if war comes
I think it will be from different
cause. 1t will be the result of a blum
der the nation made when it forgot
the Monroe doctrine and took the
Philippine islands,
He characterized the president as a
man who by force of arms tried to
compel American parents to admit
grown Mongolians into intimate rela-
tions with their children, and who
with pomp and ceremony of a battle
fleet trailing in his wake initiated the
German kaiser recently when he visit
ed his outlying provinces in Panama
and Porto Rico.

For many dear and true are left, but

The funeral anthem is a glad evan

to the many friends and relatives who
helped them through the long sickness
and death of their darling mother and
wife.
