a preparedness which is partisan IN
conception. We need not believe in
a defense propaganda inspired by
those who aim to wax fat in the pro
duction of arms and munitions. be-
cause there is none. ! deplore the
teaching that an anxiety about our ma
tfonal defense is inspired by greed.
We rejoice in free speech and free
press and untrammeled opinion. but
patriotism is lily promoted by the i'm
putation OF false motives, whether
aimed at those who believe in defense
or those who doubt it's wisdom. Such
teaching rends the concord of citi-
zensnip. which may develop a worse
peril from within than from any en-
envy without.
Though we do not pretend to be
exclusive in our devotion, we Repub-
licans believe, sincerely and soberly,
in adequate national defense. We
have always believed in an ample
navy, as inyincible in modern might
as John Paul Jones builded In our
freedoms earliest fight. We have in
mind a protected commerce on the
waters, and a seacoast secure in
strong naval defense. We we're build
ing to high rank among naval powers
when the Democratic party interrupt
e5, and we subscribe TO a stronger
committal now, because of a new re-
alization of the envy which our
wealth and our commerce invite, and
a new appreciation of our command
ing place in the affairs of the world.
shall not say that It is ours to have
the greatest navy in the world, but
noting the elimination of distance and
the passing of our onetime isolation,
we ought to have navy that fears
none in the world, and can say any
time and anywhere: These are Amer
lean rights and must be respected.
No Curse of Milltarism.
Let no one apprehend the cure of
militarism in this fair lard. We de-
clare unalterably against it. Our
free citizenship. walking confidently
absorbed in the triumphs of peace,
would tolerate no such blight on
American institutions There is no
surrender of cherished ideals. With
that yearning for peace which has
marked our continued development,
with that same committal to justice
which has given us front rank in the

onward march of civilization, with
that rare unselishness which led us
to uasheath the sword fol humauity's
sake and put all territorial aggrandize-
ment aside, with that belief in the
square deal, individual, national and
international, which is the foundation
OF American faith, we mean to go on,
an exemplar of peace to all the ma
lions, an arbiter of justice to all the
world, a promoter of righteousness
to all the people of the earth.
At the same time we have more to
do than to chart a national course
through the waters surging with the
turbulence of war; our inspiring
course is on the highway of peace.
Our armed defense must ever be
linked with our Industrial self-reli-
ance, and the nation worth dying for
must first be worth living for. Out Of
natures prodigality we have meal
culable resources and limitless posi-
bilities, and there is need only for
the unhindered application of mans
genius and industry to make us as in
dependent industrially as we are free
ro;iticaliy. Ample defense rests on
industrial freedom and self-reliance as
well as patriotic sacrifice, and indus
trial preparedness gives that assur-
ance of material good fortune in
peace on which must be founded all
our higher aspirations.
The Protective Policy.
Subsistence is the fret requisite of
existence. and we have the higher
American standard of living because
OF the Republican protective policy
which makes Of Americans the best
paid workmen in all the world. Out
of the abundance of employment and
higher compensation, together with
the reckoning opportunity which of
fers every reward, we Americans have
attracted the lsborers of the earth,
and set new standards here.
II is not for me to put the stamp OF
relative Importance on pending is
sues-the intelligent voters will de-
termine that for themselves. But
know what they are thinking, and
they believe that the protective policy
which made us industrially and com
mercially eminent is necessary to
preserve that eminence. / know they
want it restored and maintained. For

over the prospective attitude of Presi-

pressed the belief that the Mexican de-
mand for such a statement in the In

prompted by foreign agents in MEXICO

i'll for several days with stomach trou-
BILE, which was followed by a nervous
breakdown. The actual cause of death
was given as uremia. Yuan Shi Kai
died at one o'clock in the morning in
the palace, surrounded by his wives
and older children. Rumors that he
committed suicide are denied stoutly
by high officials. Other rumors that
he had been poisoned also were de-
