EX-SECETARY SHAW
EXPLAINS SPEECH
Stoutly Denies That He Predicted
War With Japan in His
MorristoWn Talk.
HE CITED WELL KNOWN FACTS
just Told What japan CouId Do ond
Not Whit She Would
Do.

philadelphia. Feb. 25-Leslie NJ.
Shaw. former secretary of the treas
ury, today denied that he had predicted
with with Japan in his recent speech
at Morristown' NJ j., which is said to
have occasioned comment in Toxic
Il did cite certain we'll known facts.
the logic of which spell war" said Mr..
Shaw. Il cited the fact that we sent
10 warships to the Pacific ocean I,
demonstrate our prowess. and hired 81
ships built of foreign material I'm for
eign yards, and floating foreign flags
ITO carry the necessary supplies. and
stated what all men know that ono
nostiIe shot from the meanest country
that owns gun would have sent every
one of these home, for no country
would consent. to have Its flag mixed
up in our contentious. We arc at peace
with the world and yet, In 1909 the
war department hired more than 10
ships to do its work. We send food
to the soldiers in the Philippines in
japanese bottoms.
II called attention to the fact that
Japan can-I did not say she WILL but
that she can-put 100000 soldiers In
Hawaii In 80 days without firing a shot,
and, being then at war. we could not
put 100000 over there to contest the
territory in two years. We have 10
ships with which to do It, and, I'm
event of war. we could neither hire nor
buy.
Japan can land fleet at Seattle |
any foggy day without SO much rs
causing the barking of a dog, and she
can march her troops down the coast
and take every excuse for fortifications
which we have on the coast without
serious opposition. Not one of The
forts is protected from the rear. and
cannon that are mounted to defend |
against an attack by sea cannot be |
turned around In Is minutes to re- !
sist an attack from the land.
II also cited the fact that. IL every |
powder mill in the United States were |
to make powder "a hours per day for |
more than 80 years the product would |
last our present navy two hours, so |
that, in case of war. il every powder |
mill were to quit making sporting pow |
der and blasting powder and work "a
hours per day for the government. we |
could fight two hours every month.
These are not state secrets. Every |
body knows them except ourselves. And
still we go on building battleships.
I'm this VIC do well. but battleships [
without colllers and transports are alb
solutely worthless In case of war We
could not get our Atlantic feet to San
Francisco. No vessel In the feet can
carry enough coal to take 1t there, and
we have no colliers and could then
hire none. did not predict war, but
I did predict what we would wake up
to in case of war"

Democratic Candidate for
Governor of Nebraska Tells
Story of His Past Life.

LINCOLN, Neb, September 29.-Mayor
]. C.. Dahlman OF Omaha, candidate for
Governor of Nebraska on the democratic
ticket. has told the story of his life.
with the request that it be given pub
licity.
Rumors that there are incidents in his
career which would not bear scrutiny
and at the same time leave him on such
a plane that he could ask for the suffrage
Of the people Of the state, prompted Mr..
Dahlman to authorize an interview
which was published here yesterday.
These rumors affected his early life in
Texas. where. 1t was stated. he had shot
and killed a man and fied the state, COM
ing to Nebraska under the name of Jim
Murray" Mr.. Dahlman confirms the re-
port that he shot a man and fed Texas
and assumed the name Of Murray. but
the man he shot did not, he says, die
His version Of 1t Is as follows:
1.-The immediate cause Of my leaving
Texas was this: An elder sister married
a man named Charley Bree, a shiftless
sort of fellow. nothing more nor less
than an outlaw. They lived together for
two years, and some time after their
child was born he deserted her, for no
apparent reason than that he was tired

Alton B. Parkef's Comments
on Restraint of Trade.
CONDEMNS HIGH TARIFF
Democratic Leaders Speech Before
Convention in Rochester, N. Y.
RAPs THEODORE ROOSEVELT
Republican Party Held Responsible
Wealth by individuals.

ROCHESTER,, y. Y, September p
Alton b. Parker. temporary chairman of
the democratic state convention, upon be-
ing introduced today. made an address
in which he outlined the issues of the
campaign from the democratic viewpoint.
THE democratic party, he said,
Stands confronted with the opportunity
and the duty to render patriotic public
service Of the first magnitude. The fathers
built for us government under the con-
troll of the people. Into the Constitution
they Incorporated those great principles
of liberty, the denial of which had been
the cause and the justification Of the rev.
olution. They SO divided the powers Of
government as to guard against execu-
tive usurpation: put 1t beyond the power
of any save the people themselves to
amend this Constitution, and sat down
to enjoy the blessings of a government of
law, not Of men.
Rap for Roosevelt.
This was less than a century and d
quarter ago. Today there are political
prophets In other lands who predict for
us speedy coming of the dictator. There
are in our beloved country advocates of
the policy to gradually take from the
people the home rule powers Of the states
and confer them upon the federal gov
eminent. Others, still more progress
sive, would not await the action OF the
people. but would seize coveted powers
whenever the passing within or caprice
of an executive shall suggest it. Indeed.
a President of the United States has said,
in substance and effect, that If We fail
to increase the federal power through ex-
ecutive action, through legislative and
through judicial construction and inter
probation of the law, we show our i'm
potence. On divers occasions he fitted
the deed to the word. and subsequently
rejoiced in the applause of the unthink-
ing.
Nor is he alone in this advocacy
Other champions there are Of the doc
trine that the people of the states and
their officials are less competent to deal
with business matters than the execu-
tive branch Of the federal government,
the courts share therein being particu-
larly obnoxious. For. says their leader,
in his address to the HaDailton Club:
This new nationalism regards the
executive power as the steward Of the
public welfare This means that the
legislative and the judicial departments
Of government are no longer to be CO.
ordinate departments Of government, ex-
ercising their powers independently, but
are to be subordinate to and contr oiled
by the steward Of all power-the execu-
tive.
