Senator Lodge, during the review
changed his seat to one just behind
the president. Laughingly, the presi
dent turned to him and said, so that
Senator Bacon might hear it: "You
should have seen Bacon hide his face
when the Eilipinos came by. The
'slaves' were rejoicing in their shack
les."
And then came Capt. Seth Bullock
and his "bunch" of cow punchers. It
was the time of their life and they
were making the most of it. All of
them know the president personally
and as they passed the stand they'
shouCed to him, waved their hats and
cheered like wild men. One of their
number added interest to the occa
sion by lassoing various persons
along the route of the parade, includ
ing a big policeman. The diversion
afforied him and the spectators the
greatest delight. After the parade the
president received and shook hands
with the cowboys.
Turning from the pageant -of the
day, the doubled population of the
city disposed itself for the three im
posing
Spectacles of the Night,
the promenade at the pension office,
misnamed a ball; the fireworks on
the white lot; and the dazzling street
decorations. The attendance at the
ball was limited to the twelve or fif
teen thousand which the building
would hold.
The President's Address.
My Fellow Citizens: No people o2a
earth have more cause to be thankful
than ours, and this is said reverently,
in no spirit of boastfulness in our
-own strength, but with gratitude to
the Giver of Good who has blesse I us
with the conditions which have en
abled us to achieve so large a meas
ure of wellbeing and of happiness. To
us as a people it has been granted to
lay the foundations of our national
life in a new continent. We are the
heirs of the ages, and yet we have
had to pay few of the penalties which
in old countries are exacted by the
dead hand of a bygone civilization.
We have not been obliged to fight
for our existence against any alien
race, and yet our life has called ior
the vigor and effort without which
the manlier and hardier virtues with
er away. Under such conditions it
would be our fault if we failed; and
the success which we have had in the
past, the success which we confident
ly believe the future will bring,
should cause in us no feeling of vain
glory, but rath'er a deep and abiding
realization of all which life has of
fered us; a full acknowledgment of
the responsibility which is ours; and
a fixed determination to show that
under a free government a mighty
people can thrive best, alike as re
gards the things of the body and the
-things of the soul.
Our Foreign Relations.
Much has been given to us, and
much will rightfully be expected from
us. We have duties to others and dut
ties to ourselves; and we can shirk
neither. We have become a great na
tion, forced by the fact of its great
ness into relation with the other na
tions of the earth; and we must be
have 'as beseems a people with such
responsibilities. Toward all other
nations, large and small, our attitude
must be. one of cordial and sincere
friendship. We must show not only
in our words, but in our deeds that
we are earnestly desirous of securing
their good will by acting toward
them in a spirit of just and and gen
erous recognition of all their rights.
But justice and generosity in a na
tion, as in an individual, count most
when shoivn not by the weak but by
the strong. While ever careful to rc
frain from wronging others, we must
be no less insistent that we are not
wronged ourselves. We wvish peace;
but we wish the peace of justice, the
peace of righteousness. We wish it
because we think it is right and not
because we are afraid. No weak na
tion that acts manfully and justly
should ever have cause to fear us,
and no strong Power should ever be
able to single us out as a subject for
insolent aggression.
Our Domestic Relations.
Our relations with the other pow
ers of the world are important; but
still more important are our relations
among ourselves. Such growth in
wealth, in population and in power as
this nation has 'seen durin'g the cen
+m.., anda quaarter of its national life
is inevitably accompanied by a like
growth in the problems which are
ever before every nation that rises to
greatness. Power invariably means
both responsibility and danger. Our
forefathers faced certain perils which
we have outgrown. We now face
other perils the very existence of
which it was impossible that they
should foresee. Modern life is both
complex and intense, and the tremen
dous changes wrought by the extra
ordinary industrial development of
the last half century are felt in every
fibre of our social and political be
ing.
Problems, Old and New.
Never before have men tried so
vast and formidable an experiment
as that of administering the affairs of
a continent under the forms of a dem
ocratic republic. The conditions
which have told for our marvelous
material well-being, which have de
veloped to a very high degree our
energy, self-reliance, and individual
initiative, have 4 brought the care
and anxiety inseparable from the ac
cumulation of great wealth in indus
trial centres. Upon the success of
our experiment much depends; not
only as regards our own welfare, but
as regards the welfare of mankind.
If we fail the cause of free self-gov
ernment. throughout the world will
rock to its foundations; and therefore
our responsibility is heavy to our
selves, to the world as it is today and
to the generations yet unborn. There
is no good reason why we should fear
the future, but there is elvery reason
why we siould face it seriously,
neither hiding from ourselves the
gravity of the problems before us nor
fearing to approach these problems
with the unbending, unflinching pur
pose to solve them aright.
Let us be Steadfast.
Yet, after all, though the problems
are new, though the tasks set before
us differ from the tasks set before
our fathers who founded and preserv
ed this Republic, the spirit in which
these tasks must be undertaken and
these problems faced,' if our duty is
to be well done, remains essentially
unchanged. We know that self-gov
ernment is difficult. We know that
no people needs such high traits of
character as that people which seeks
to govern its affairs alright through
the freely expressed will of the free
men who compose it. But we have
faith that we shall not proVe false to
the memories of the men of tahe migh
ty past. They did their work, they
left us the splnedid heritage we now
enjoy. We in our turn have an as
sured confidence that we shall be
able to leave this heritage unwasted
and enlarged to our children and our
c'hildren's children. To do so we
must show, not merely in great crises,
but- in the every day affairs of life, the
qualities of practical intelligence, of
courage, of hardihood and endurance,
and above all the power of devotion
to a lofty ideal which made great the
men who foundei this Republic in
the Jays of Washington, which made
great the men who preserved this Re
public in the days of Abraham Lin
coln.

story:
"A posse was one day looking for
a bad man who was the real thing.
'Bat' and I and several others were
in the bunch and we ambushed our
man, and when he was within twenty
steps we suddenly showed ourselves
and ordered him to throw up his
hands.
"He was on horseback and he
promptly drew a revolver. There
was nothing else for us to do, and
five of us fired, and the bad man
tumbled from his pony. We went to
-him and found that, while he was
badly wounded, he was not dead. He
cursed us roundly and then grew sar
castic.
" 'You are a fine lot of marksmen,'
he said. 'If I had fired at a man like
that I would have killed him, you
bet.'
"Masterson seemed grieved at the
complaint, and he said sincerely:
'Well, now, don't blame me. I did
my best!'

Emperor William is certainly a
working man. The record of each of
'his days at Berlin or Potsdam, as
given in the press, shows that every
hour from dawn to long after dusk
brings its duties-duties demanding
wide observation, close study, con
centration of thought, and ecision.
Nor is this attention bounded 'by
German interests. He is a keen stu
dent of the world at large. At var
ious interviews there was ample evi
dence of -his close observation of the
present president of the UnitedStates
and of appreciation of his doings and
qualities.
