SOUTH AMERICA
TO GREET FLEET
ROYAL WELCOME FOR UNCLE
SANS MIGHTY ARMADA.
MONROE DOCTR ne CHAMPION
John Barrett, Director of Bureau Of
American Republics, Emphasizes
Important Effect on Countries
South of us. Rio Great celebration

Madison, Wis.-The beneficial Ell
feet of the Pacific cruise now being
made by Rear Admiral Evans big
fleet on the relations of the Latin
American representatives to the Unit
ed States was pointed out by John
Barrett, in an address before the
American Political Science Associa-
ton in session here. Mr.. Barrett,
now director general of the Interna-
tional Bureau of American RepuD-
lies, and formerly United States MID
lister to Argentina, Colombia and Pan
anna, spoke on "The new South Amer
lea, and its relations to the United
States.
Continuing after reviewing the de-
velopment of South America and
speaking of the high Importance 10
the United States of maintaining corl-
mercial control and moral Influence,
in competition with Europe in the re-
publics, Mr.. Barrett said:
Zone Of the most important eff
fleets, if not the principal reason Of
the sailing of the battleship fleet to
the Pacific has been almost overlook
ed in the constant discussion the
effect on Japan and that is the i'm
preston created in South America.
eve have failed to note that the
great newspapers and leading men OF
our sister republics, are giving even
more attention to the movement of
the. armada than are those Of our
oriental neighbors.
'sThe powerful and progressive re-
publics of South America, like Brazil,
Argentine and Peru, which are fast
becoming world powers, are not only
welcoming the coming Of the ships
and applauding this vast and unique
naval undertaking, but are planning
to give the fleet reception that will
not be surpassed in cordiality, Ell
thusiasm and extent by any reception
that may be accorded them later OIL,
either of our own Pacific coast, or
in the ports of the Orient.
At Rio Janeiro and again at Cal
lao, Peru Rear Admiral Evans fleet
will be greeted and treated as the
real representatives of the naval
strength of the United States, as Sec
rotary Root was the true envoy Of the
new diplomacy Of the United States,
which politically, commercially, his
torically and geographically is the
natural ally and friend of all South
America.
"In short, the voyage around South
America Of this fleet, while not in
any way intended or planned to i'm
press South America, and therefore
all the more appreciated by them, will
establish beyond a doubt or issue,
one point often discussed in South
America, which doubts the strength
and capacity Of the United States as
compared to Europe, that if ever the
necessity should come, which God for
bid, the United States could enfor ,e
and maintain its position with the
Monroe doctrine as strong living
issue, never to be forgotten in the
competition of nations for power and
influence on the western hemis-

that business is picking up and his
company has put on quite number of

Mr. ogden says that in his business

other industries. a feeling of confidence

in the nine preceding months.
During that time the Gras SELF Chem

nothing but repair works. while now

Mr.. ogden does not believe there will

Assurance Is Conveyed That Distin-

and Republican Managers Want
Vice President in the Campaign.

The friends of Vice President Charles
w. Fairbanks in Lake county will be
interested I'm learning that the dis
tinGuished statesman at the expiration
of the election of Mr.. Taft may go
abroad ambassador. A Washing
ton contemporary says:
"Vice President Fairbanks has won
great array of golden opinions by
his conduct of his mission to the Que
bee tercentenary celebration. There is
great satisfaction among people who
have TO do with international relations
country officially has been in the hands
of one so skilled.
Measures Up to Standards.
There are, indeed, few Americans
who measure up more completely to
the continental requirements of a real
diplomat than does Mr. Fairbanks In
this connection there has been a good
deal of intima ton both during and
since the Chicago convention that the
vice president could easily secure his
choice of European embassies under
the Taft administra ton If he would in
dictate a Willingness to take one of
them.
HE would be, stepping out Of the
vice presidency into sucn a post. rather
the most distinguished diplomatic Am
erica has sent to the old world in a
reat many years The impression is
that he may yet conclude to accept
IL no
public service.
Want Him In Campaign.
Tt is no great secret that agree
ment by which the entire and enthu-
siastic support of the Fairbanks In
diana following could be enlisted fol-
the Republican ticket would be most
gratifying right now to the Republican
campaign managers. They do not ad-
NIT all that the democrats claim for In
diana. but they do commonly admit
that If there is a doubtful state in the
north that state is Indiana, and tina
it is probably ,he most promising bat
tie ground for the democrats this ia,
developed in the campaign.
IF. therefore. Mr. Fairbanks HON,
friends could be made definitely t.
understand that he had particular rea
sons to be devoted to the ticket Their
would be much less 1sgivfng about TIL
state.
Talk of ST. James Court.
During the Chicago convention
there was much talk Of the possfbilit.
of Mr.. Fairbanks going to the cour
of st. James. There is little doubt tina
a one time he could have had the as
surance of the appointment wthou
the asking Whether that time is pas
is not known, but talk of such a con
summation has been revivid by reaso
of the appearance the vice presiden
