AND THEIR HISTORY

Hail, Columbia! happy land,
Hail, We heroes! Heaven born bandl
Who fought and bled in Freedoms cause
Who fought and bled in Freedom cause,
And when the storm Of war was gone,
Enjoyed the peace your valor won
Let independence be your boast
Ever mindful what it cost;
Ever grateful for the prize,
Let its altar reach the skies
CHORUS.
Firm, united, let US be,
Rallying round our Liberty:
As a band of brothers Joined,
Peace and safety we shall find.
Immortal patriotsi rise once more:
Defend your rights, defend your shore:
Let no rude foe, with impious hand,
Let no rude foe, with pious hand,
Invade the shrine where sacred lies
OF toll and blood the welI-earned prize.
While offering peace, sincere and Just.
In Heaven we place manly trust,
That truth and justice viii prevail,
And every scheme of bondage fail.
Sound, sound the trump of fame
Let Washington's great name
Ring thro' the world with loud applause,
Ring thro' the world with loud applause:
Let every cline to Freedom dear
Listen with joyful ear
With equal skill. and Godlike pow'r.
He governs In the fearful hour
OF hOTrid war or guides with ease
The happier time of honest peace
Behold the chief who now commands.
Once more to serve his country stands!
The rock on which the storm viii beat.
The rock on which the storm viii beat:
But armed in virtue, firm and true
His hopes are fixed on H caven and YOU.
When hope was sinking in dismay,
When glooms obscured Coumbia's day.
His steady mind, from changes free.
Resolved on death or Liberty.

ROOSEVELT WRITES
ON JAP QUESTION

government can carry out such
policy effectively, and the surest
way to do harm is for state, NUM-
cipal or other local governments to
pass laws which would be ineffec-
tive to obtain the real OBJECT. yet
would produce intense irritation.
The best of all possible ways in
which to achieve this object is
that which the governments of the
two countries have now by com
mon agreement adopted; for the
Japanese government has of it's
own initiative and own accord I'M
dertaken to prevent the coming
hither of any appreciate number
of Japanese of the classes to which
referred.
The success of the policy must
be gagged by the actual results;
that is, by the extent to which it
arrests the immigration of large
bodies of Japanese. If the Japa-
nese government proves unable to
carry its policy through, then I'M
doubtedly this government by
treaty or legislation must protect
itself and secure the desired re-
suit on it's own initiative; but In
such case it would be doubly in
cumbent upon us to take action
that would provoke the least posi-
BILE friction and cause the least
possible hard feeling.
The fact that all really patriotic,
far sighted Americans insist that
hand in hand with the policy of
good will toward foreign nations
should go the policy of upbuilding
our navy is often interpreted by
well meaning but short sighted
men as being a threat towards 9th
er nations or as being provocative
of war. OF the two assumptions
the first is utterly unwarranted, the
second is the direct reverse of the
truth. We have the right to say
for instance, what immigrants shall
come to our shores, but we are
powerless to enforce this right
against any nation that chooses to
disregard our wishes unless We
continue to build and maintain
first class fighting navy We
Americans are ourselves proud and
high spirited, and we are not al
ways by any means far sighted. If
our honor or interests were men
aced by a foreign power this ma
tion would fight wholly without re-
gard to whether or not its own was
efficient In the event of crisis
arising peace advocates who object
to our building up a navy would be
absolutely powerless to prevent
this country from going to war. A
strong navy is the surest guarantee
of peace that America can have,
and the cheapest insurance against
war that Uncle Sam can possibly
buy. (Signed) Theodore Roosevelt.

NEW YORK, May Elm the cur
rent number of the Outlook, out to-
day, an editorial by Colonel Roose-
welt, in part follows:
There are certain elementary
principles all of which should be
kept in view if a nation wishes to
act justly both by itself and others.
1t must insist upon what is neces-
sary for it's own healthy life, this
even at the cost of possible
clash, but this insistence upon
what is due itself should always
be accompanied by all. possible
courtesy to and fair dealing with
others. These are the principles
upon which the people of the
United States should act with re-
gard to the question of immigra-
ton of japanese into this coun-
try.
The Japanese are a highly civil
lized people, of extraordinary mill
tary, artistic and industrial devel-
opment. They are proud, warlike
and sensitive. ! believe our people
have, what | personally certainly
have, a profound and hearty admir-
alton for them. But this admira-
tionsand respect is accompanied by
the firm conviction that it isn't to
the advantage of either people that
emigrants from either country
should settle in a mass in the 9TH
er country.
Japan would certainly object to
incoming masses Of American farm
ers, laborers and small traders. In
deed, the Japanese would object to
this at least as strongly as the
men of the Pacific coast and Rocky
mountains object TO the incoming
mass of Japanese wOrkmen, agri-
culturists, laborers and men en-
gagged in small trades.
The Japanese certainly object to
Americans acquiring land in Japan,
at least as much as Americans in
far western states object to Japa-
nese acquiring land on our soil.
Americans who go to Japan, and
japanese who come to America,
should be of the same general
class; that is. they should be trav-
elers, students, teachers, scientific
investigators. men engaged in in
ternational business and men So
journing In land for pleasure or
study. II is against the interests
OF both nations that such unre-
stricted emigration or settlement
In mass should be allowed as re-
CARDS to either nation. This is the
cardinal fact In the situation and
II should be recognized by both
countries. But In achieving this
policy we should bear steadily in
mind II IL our duty to combine
maximum efficiency with minimum
offensiyeness. Only national

ONLY BURGLAR CAN

The Spokane Falls Gas & Light
Co. is the victim of a novel rob-
berry at the Avondale court last
night, where between $40 and $50
were dexterously extracted from
the "quarter-in-the-slot" gas meter
in the basement. Mrs. Horn, the
proprietress of the house, phoned
the police this morning telling
them of the burglary there last
night. After breaking into 1.-The
basement of the apartments the
thief partly ruined the big meter
in prying the money box out of it.

If the longshoremen, the biggest
of all the Great Lakes unions, vote
to go out in sympathy with the
marine engineers, the strike will
assume monster proportions. The
seamen's union is as yet undecided
as to whether it should strike,
while the marine cooks have al
ready gone out. The longshoremen,
like the seamen, are on the fence.
If they go out Captain T. V.
