Wants a Foot Loose Navv.

"For the protection Of our coast we
need Notifications, not merely to pro-
tect the salient points of our possess
s1ons, but so that the navy can be foot
loose. a year ago, at the time it was
announced that the feet was to go
abroad, there were a certain number
of newspapers, especially in my own
city of New York, that raised a clam
orous protest against it. 1t took at
one time the form Of a mistaken proph-
ecy to the effect that the feet would
not be allowed to go around the world.
and one of the reasons alleged was
that to let it go around the world
would leave New York defenseless in
the event Of war.
1.-The theory evidently was that the
fleet, or a portion Of it, would be used
especially to protect New York and
other cities in the event of war. If

Great Nation Playing Great Part.

"All$of the leaders of our people are
fond Of assuring this people that it is
a great people. We are a great peo-
pie. That ought not to be a subject
for boastfulness. It ought to be
subject for serious consideration be-
cause Of the heavy responsibilities
that go with it.
I'VE cannot help playing a great
part in the world, but we can very
easily help playing that part we'll, and
to be great people and make great
failure is as unattracttve a picture as
history affords. It is not open to US to-
decide whether or not the career that
we lead shall be important. It has
got to- be important. All we can de-
eide is as to whether our success shall
be great or our failure great. We are
sure to make either great failure or
a great success.
II would not pretend for a moment,
gentlemen, to you or any one else,
that merely military proficiency on
land or sea would by itself make this
or any other nation great. First and
foremost come the duties within the
gates Of our own household, and
then our duty is to strive to bring
about a better administration Of JUS
t1ce, cleaner, juster, more equitable
methods in our political, business and
social life, the reign Of that orderly
liberty which was the first considera-
ton in the minds of the founders Of

I'VE do not want any navy at all If

Words of No Avail.

1T Is absolutely necessary that If
we claim for ourselves the right to
choose who shall come here we shall
be in trim to uphold that right if any
power challenges It, and it cannot be
upheld by words, it cannot be upheld
by a coast defense navy. It can be
upheld only by the possession Of an
efficient fighting navy, a navy able to
preserve the honor and the interest of
the United States, not by inviting at
tack on our shores and then seeing if
we cannot repel it, but by taking such
action as shall guarantee us against
our shores being attacked.
AT the present day the Monroe doc
trine is unchallenged, and the people
abroad who used to sheer at it now
say it is a pretty good doctrine after
all, useful doctrine, on the whole. for
the peace Of the world. What has
produced that change? Words? Not
a bit Of it. Diplomacy? Only in so
far as diplomacy rested on the SUBJ
stantial basis Of potential force. The
voyage Of the sixteen battleships
around South America, through the
strait Of Magellan, from Hampton
Roads to Puget sound-that was the
most instructive object lesson that had
ever been afforded as to the reality Of
the Monroe doctrine.
SNOW, gentlemen, wish to reit-
crate, with just as much earnestness
as ! have spoken today on other SUBJ
jeets, that want q resistless fighting
navy, because It Is the most effective
guarantee Of peace that this country
can have. Uncle Sam can we'll afford
to pay for his peace and safety so
cheap an insurance policy as is i'm
piled in the maintenance Of the United
States navy.

ton shall never have any interests out
side its own borders and shall assume
toward other nations an attitude of
such meekness that no trouble can
ever possibly come.
Inviting Certain Disaster.
1T is a defensible policy. But a
wholly indefensible policy would be
consistently to work for the >assump-
ton of responsibilities without making
any provision for meeting the de-
mands necessarily entailed by those
responsibilities. To be rich, aggres-
siye and unarmed is to invite certain
disaster and humiliation.

If we had not taken the16, hot a parti-
cle> Of difference would be made as re-
CARDS the needs Of our naval policies.
There has been q division! among this
people as to taking the Philippines.
There has been 10 division on the
Monroe doctrine: no. division on build
1ng; maintaining, policing and defend
Ing the Panama canal; no division about
Hawaii and Porto Rico; no division
about keeping Alaska, which, though
on the continent, is just as much sep
arated as If it was an island; no d.
vision about asserting our superior
right to defend and protect Cuba. Not
one Of the courses of action thus out
lined can be followed out excepting
with first class navy.
'"The Monroe doctrine was In danger
OF falling not merely into disuse, but
into contempt, until we began to build
up our navy. The Monroe doctrine
won't be observed by foreign nations
with sufficient strength to disregard it,
when once it becomes their interest to
disregard it, unless we have a navy
sufficient to make our assertion Of the
doctrine good. The Monroe doctrine
unbacked by navy is an empty boast,
and there exist but few more con-
temptible characters, individual or ma
tional, than the man or nation who
boasts and when the boast is chal-
lenged fails to make good.

Big Navy Best For Peace.

IF we have coast defense navy
only, we had better at once turn over
the Panama canal to some stronger
and Drawer nation, which would not
limit itself merely to a coast defense
navy and could protect 1t. If we
should limit ourselves merely to a
navy that would confne US to defensive
war-war certain in the end to be un-
successfully would be well at once to
give up Hawaii, to give up Porto Rico.
to give up Alaska and to say that we
had no more interest in Cuba than the
smallest outside powers.
IF we intend to claim to be great
nation, then we must fit ourselves so
that we may be ready at need to make
good that claim. That can only be
done by building up and maintaining
at the highest point Of efficiency the
United States navy.
"There is a curious eoroIlary to what
| am just saying. If we really make
good tho claim, the chances are in
finitesimsI that it will ever be neces-
sary to do so. The real chance for
war for this nation comes only if we
combine policy which disresards the
interests or feelings Of others with a
policy Of helpIessness to hold our own
if our right to do as we wish is chal-
lenged. If, on the other hand, we are
ready in very fact to hold our own, the
chance becomes infinitesimal that we
will be called upon to do SO.
But, constituted as this people is,
If we did not have a foreign possess
sion, if we abandoned the Monroe doc
trine, if we handed over to some other
power the Panama canal, it would still
be necessary for US to have a navy,

Danger In ''Hitting Soft"

mo fight was ever won yet except
by hitting, and the one unforgivable
ofense in any man is to hit soft. That
applies to the nation, and those who
advocate a coast defense navy are
advocating that we shall adopt as a
national principle the principle Of hit
ting soft.
~ hope with all my heart that never
will this nation Of ours hit unless it
cannot possibly be helped. believe
that the nation should serupuIousIy
refrain from wronsing or insulting
another nation; that it should put up
with a good deal in the way of mis-
conduct on the part of others before
going to war. But when this nation
does have to go to war such war will
only be excusable if tho nation in
tends to hammer it's opponent until
that opponent quits fighting.

DLEAD1NG for popular support
II for first class fighting navy"
navy capable of seeking out
the enemy and "hammering
him into the quits" President Roose-
welt was the central figure at the Naval
War college in Newport the other day
in the most notable conference of
American naval officers ever called to-
gether to consult and discuss in q
broad, general way the features Of fu-
ture battleships. The president spoke
publicly. for more than half an hour,
and. the conference went into executive
session for an hour.
During this session the president
took a leading part in the discussion.
He argued as a layman, he explained,
and did not attempt to give advice to
professional men. He impressed upon
the officers, however, that it was given
to them to keep the American navy
abreast Of the times and to make it
the hard hitting, efficient fighting
force which he believes to be guar
antee against the possibility Of war.

The president in his address said:
admiral, Mr.. Secretary, Gentle
men-There are only few things
that I desire to say today to the con-
ference, and what have to say really
is said less to the officers present than
to the great bulk Of my fellow coun-
trymen outside. I could not speak to
you technically. can speak to my
fellow countrymen, who are deeply in
terested in the American navy, but
who sometimes tend to be misled as
to the kind Of navy we should have
and as to what the navy can and
ought to do.
"For instance, there are always GER
tain numbers Of we'll meaning, amia-
bic individuals, coupled with others
not quite so we'll meaning, who advo-
cate merely coast defense navy.
Such advocacy illustrates a habit Of
mind as old as human nature itself
the desire at the same time to do
something and not to do it.

O'Leary and Schmehl Cover Distance
In Less Than Twelve Hours

The champion heel and toe walker Of

Schmehl, the famous walker who left
Chicago at 2 O'Clock Sunday morning
arrived here at 1885 Sunday afternoon,
making the distance of so miles in IL
hours and So minutes. Sixteen other
local Chicago walkers accompanied the
men and all Of them arrived at Keno
sha with the exception of D. J. o 'Leary
who dropped out at Waukegan. While
they attempted to walk the distance in
IL hours they beat the schedule by "a
minutes and they made several stops
along the way. Both men were in fine
spirits and declare they can beat this
record when they make the trip from
Milwaukee to Chicago in August
After resting until evening in Kenosha
the party returned to Chicago Sunday
night.
