AMERICAN FLAG
AND WORLD PEACE
Mr.. Bryan at His Best a Flag
Day Orator.
BRILLIANT PLEA FOR PEACE
Secretary Lane Presides At impress
sive Exercises--our Proud Boast
That Our Flag Is Loved
Rather Than Feared.

Washington.--At elaborate and i'm
pressive Flag Day exercises conducted
in the great court of the Interior De-
partment and presided over by Secre-
tafy Lane. s;esrotarsts OF t4SAsV''s7t' Blyan
delivered an oration upon The Ameri-
can Flag and World Peace,
Mr.. Bryan vividly pictured his ideal
of world Of friendly nations among
which war would have no place. He
believed that long steps now were be-
ing taken to insure universal peace,
and added. "Only this morning | re-
ceived assurances from the Empire of
Japan of its desire to renew with the
United States its general arbitration
treaty. Before next Christmas | am
expecting that at least 25 nations will
have concluded with this country
treaties by the terms of which con
troversies which cannot be adjusted
otherwise may be referred to a dis
interested International tribunal, thus
practically insuring peace and justice
between us and all of the great nations
of the world.

1t is the proud boast of this nation
that our flag is loved rather than
feared. No gun ever mounted is as
strong as a great thought. Grea'
thoughts are the controlling forces Of
the world; and love is the basis o.
every great thought"
| Concluding in an apotheosis' to the
flag, Secretary Bryan compared the
ideals represented, respectively, by
Christ and PLATE:
"The power of the unarmed Man
Galilee is represented by that flag, ant
no man will dare put it on the side o
PLATE who was the embodiment o
force. Let us always make It a symbo
of the nations purposes purpose
pure enough to be represented by sucl

ways shall represent cause so jus
that it will bear the blessing of Al
mighty God"

VICTORY WAS CERTAIN
viNplcATloN OF ROOSEVELT A
FoREeoNE CONCLUSION.
Most Earnest and Judlelous condem-
nation of the Michigan Libel Came
From the Enemies of the
Colonel.

MIR. Roosevelts vindication through
the peculiar turn of events at Mar
duette is in full accord with the ver-
dict long ago rendered by the enlight-
ened thought of the country and by
the press in general, to whom the at
tack upon him was repellent in MANY
ways.
Fairness compels recognition of the
fact that the most earnest and judi
cious condemnation of the Michigan
libel came from Mr.. Roosevelt's enc
mies-from accomplished men of the
world like the editors of the New York
Sun and Times, who vigorously oppose
almost everything for which Mr..
Roosevelt stands, but to whom the
ignorant. narrow point of view occu-
pied by the prohibition zealot Is re-
pulsive in the last degree.
There still survive among us men so
poorly informed in the ways of civil
lzation, in the philosophy of individ'
ual moral accountability and in the
supreme grace of courtesy that in
their ignorant eyes every man who
takes a drink is a drunkard and the
onyl national virtue worth mentioning
is the practice of enforced sobriety be-
cause no liquor is anywhere to be had.
Men of true cultivation and upright
character take drink when 1t is right
and proper for them to do so, and
when 1t is not they refrain. There is
an inevitable freemasonry among such
men, stronger than church or party
ties, which irrestibly impels them to
make common cause against extrem-
lists of the prohibition type. The issue
is one that has no bearing whatever
on the political OF personal controver-
sizes that have revolved about Mr.
Roosevelt. 1t is merely a chapter In
the uplift of the race from passion
and ignorance up to urbanity and self
restraint.

JAPANESE WILL

Senatorial Opposition To the Var-
GUS Arbitration Treaties
Will Be over

Washington. Viscount Chinda. the
Japanese ambassador has advised
Secretary Bryan that Japan is willing
to renew for another period of five
years her arbitration with the United
States, which expires by limitation
August "a.
Secretary Bryan, making the an
nouncement, said he not only hoped,
but expected the Senate would ratify
the new arbitration treaties already
signed with Great Britain and other
countries, despite the opposition
against them. No date for the sign
ing of the Japanese renewal has been
determined
The senatorial opposition which
Secretary Bryan is hopeful of over
coming was originally voiced by SEN
ator Chamberlain, who insisted that in
renewal of the treaty with Great Brit
ain specific exceptions should be made
to remove the Panama Canal tolls CON
troversy from the field of arbitration,
The question of arbitrating the issue
with Japan over the California alien
land law has also been subject OF
discussion among senators opposed to
renewing that arbitration treaty.
President Wilson has had frequent
conferences over the arbitration
treaties with senators at the White
House an dat the Capitol. Members
of the Foreign Relations Committee
likewise have been frequent callers al
Secretary Bryan's office. Mr.. Bryar
would not say upon just what repre-
sentations he based his expectation
that the arbitration treaties would re

BLUE AND GRAY
IN BIG REUNION
As, 900 Old Soldiers to Be at
Gettysburg.
ANNIVERSARY OF BIG BATTLE
Provision Being Made For the Accom-
mediation OF the Veterans Who
Took Part On Both
Sides.

philadelphia Forty-fve thousand
veterans of the Civil War, wearers OF
both the blue and the gray, have asked
the Gettysburg Anniversary Commits
Lion to. provide accommodations for
them during the celebration Of the
fiftieth anniversary of the famous bat
tie next month These figures were
given out at Harrisburg by DR.. Samuel
G. Dixon, OF the State Department of
Health, as a final estimate, which does
not include any of the thousands OF
visitors expected to journey to the his
toric battlefield.
Under the most favorable conditions
there would be many cases of illness
among these old soldiers during the
encampment. Dr. Dixon estimated.
But a much greater number is feared
because of the heat, the excitement
and the strain of travel incident to the
pilgrimage. Among other provisions
for caring for the sick, arrangements
have been made with hospitals in
cities within radius of 40 miles to re-
ceive cases from the emergency hos
| pital to be installed on the field. Har-
risburg, Lancaster, York, Chambers
burg and Hagerstown, Md, will give
aid
An estimate OF the accommodations
which Gettysburg's 5000 inhabitants
can offer to the crowds of visitors in
dicates that $4,000 at most can be
given sleeping quarters. Food will
perhaps be available for greater
number, but the pressure of passenger
train service will probably limit the
! amount of food which can be brought
into the town. To provide against
famine among the veterans, the ami
yersary commission has arranged thai
all supplies for them be brought in be
fore they arrive.

Washington. Without varying a dot
from the principles laid down last

Supreme Court of the United States
Monday upheld state railroad rate leg
islation in Missouri, Arkansas, Oregon
