Marquard put it all over Jack from the first to the last inning and showed more form tham any of the other vet- erans up to date. Coombs, on the other hand, was greeted by a home run drive from the bat of Fabrique in the very first in- ning.

I believe if we are faithful and energetic in the pursuit of m;polwtnmwfllbononeed of a large lhnfll‘n‘ army. Our combined military aval _establishment should be mlnd solely with a view of home - protection, , and never for the of foreign aggression. (ap- luse.) There is always a risk that a hr'e army may be used for r purposes than for protection and m and for that reason I have been fairly content with the provisions of the national-defense act and with the provisions-of the bill now pending. 1 am, however, not unmindfut that through the courage and statesman- ship of loyal, patriotic Americans in the past we have become a great na- tion of the world, with ever-widen.ng dominion, with ever-increasing 1e- ponllbumen, and I am deeply grateful that through their hardships, through their sacrifices we have inherited a country great and prosperous in all tings; rich in agriculture, rich in man- ufactures, rich in mineral resources, rich in the arts and sciences, rich in freedom. And 1 now keenly realize that th! great national wealth of ours is left unprotected, is an element of peril ‘when other great nations of the world, animated by lust of conquest and greed of trade, are ng and equip ping by the aid of conscript laws mill ions and millions of their men, train- ed in the art of modern re. Our friendly neighbor upon the north will 'soon have over 500,000 men, trained vet- erans. Our unfriendly neighbor on the south is out of every Mexican bandit more or less of a trained sol- dier and there is ever present the poss- ibility timt we may not be able to maintain control of the ocean so as to prevent the transportaion of foreign troops to our shores.

I be- flove fhat we showid now sdopt the poi- icy of military training for all young States, enlistments to be limited to men in the regular army of the United one year, denying to privates and per- haps to ?rpun-l- the privilege of re- énlistment. In this way there will be a-chance for all, and yet there will-be no large permanent standing army. The youth of our country are compelled to go to school for years without pay for their own good and for the g of society. Therefore, I hold that th!y should be compelled to serve with merely nominal pay, certainly not higher pay, for another year in the military service of their country.
