Last Speech of Tri, DANVILLE, Ill, June 4 — President Roosevelt delivered the last scheduled speech of his long trip here, the home of Congressman Cannon, this evening. Not- withstanding the inclement weather he was greeted by a large crowd. The stay here was for but twenty minutes and at 6:40 o'clock his train left for Indianapolis, from whence it will go direct to Wash- ington. The last day of the trip was In a most ralny one. Stops were made only at Lin- coln, Springfield, Decatur and Danville. The principal speech of the day w de- lvered. at Springfield in the new armory building.

The meal was served In the dining car Gllisey, the guests beside the president being Sec- retary of Agriculture Wilson, Secretary to the President Loeb, Senators Beveridge and Fairbanks of Indiana, Surgeon General of the Navy Rixey, and Assistant Secretary to the President Barnes. President Roosevelt was greeted here by 6,000 people who had stood for an hour in a drizzling rain to give him a cordlal wel- come. The train reached here at 6:20 and the president, accompanied by Congress- man Cannon and Benator Cullom, was im- mediately conducted to a stand erected alongside the railroad tracks. He was in- troduced by Congressman Cannon. Presi- dent Roosevelt said it was a great pleasure for him to meet the people of Danville and a double pleasure to behold the next speaker of the next house of representa- tives. Example of Fidelity, 1 wish to say now that the way in which Mr. Cannon was chosen (for he has been chosen) speaker of tl American public life Mr. nnon has rl yed, during his long services in congress most useful part that any member in {ongress can play and vet pre-em. inently one whicl off-handed ~ would be W mediate against the of.. further advanc ment.

Dedicates New Arsenal. SPRINGFIELD, I, June 4.—President Roosevelt spent four hours in_Springfleld today, during which time he dedicatcd the new state arsenal and armory, erected at &, cost of 150,000, donated by citizens of Springfield, and addressed the Lincoln-Mc- Kinley Veterans' assocfation at the Lin- coln monument. The president’s train arrived over the Chi- clago & Alton and was greeted with the presidential salute. Business houses and residences were elaborately decorated with flags. From the station to the armory the presi- dent was escorted through throngs of cheer- ing people, with Governor Yates, county and city officers, the reception committee, two troops of the First Cavalry, Illinols National Guard, the Fifth Infantry, Illinols National Guard. On each side of Capitol avenue, between Sixth street and the state house, were massed 5,000 school children, who waved flags as the procession passed. Among the thousands who heard the president speak was Company H of the Elghth regiment (colored), Iilinols Natonal Guard, After greeting the veterans' as- sociation the president said: 1t seems to me eminently fitting that the gard around the tomb of Lincoln shoula composed of colored soidiers. 1t was my own good fortune at Santlago to serve beside coiored troops. A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled and less than that no man shall have, The president’s party then drove back to the monument where the dedfcation exer- clses took place In the great hall, Senator Cullom, introducing the president called for three cheers, which were g standing. The president said in part: ™ Senator Cullom, Governor Yates and you, my fellow Americans, men and women of the great state of INinois: it is a deep pleasure for me to have the chance of speaking to you today; and above all, to speak 10 you'in Lincoin's home, after hav- ing driven out to ace Lincolu's tomb. and driven out In company with tie man' who accompanied the body of the great mar- tyred president on its last journey to its last resting place, your sénior senator, Senator Cullom (applause). I have met in llliaols many men who knew Lincoln personally; and at every place that | have stopped 1 have seen men who fought in the army when Lincoln called the country to arms. All of us now pay our tribute to the greatness that is ABG HEMIAN Pure, Pale and Bottled Only at the Brewery in St. Louls. Order from H. May & Company to e to L left for Danville amid | achieved, all of us now looking back over the past forty years can see tne figure of Lincoln, the kindly, patient, Lincoin, as it 1ooms above his contemporaries, as it will loom even Jarger through the centuries to come. (Applause) It is a good thing for us by speech to pay homage 10 the memory of Abraham Lincein; but It is an iIn- finitely better thing for us In our lives to pay homage to his memory in the only way In which that homage can be effec tively paid, by seeing to It that this re- ublic's life, social and political, civie ind ndustrial, fa shaped now in accordance with the ideals which Lincoln preached and which all his life long he practiced (Cheers.) The greatness of our forefathers must serve not as an excuse to us for failing to do our duty in return, but as a spur to make us feel that we aré doubly recreant— recreant to them as well as recreant to ourselves—if we fall to rise level with the standard they set. To the men of Lincoln's ene ion the supreme It was given to e true to themselves in a great national crisis. Theirs was not the life of ease and life of comfort. For thelr good fortune they were given a duty hard to perform, but supremely well worth performing. I envy no man a life of ease, and 1 feel little but contempt for him if his onl‘y ideal Is to lead a life of ease. We should reserve our feeling of admiration for the men who have difficult work to do, but work emin- ently worth doing and who do it well. (Ap- plause.) Same 0ld Problems. The problems that face us as a nation today are the problems which Lincoln and the men of his generation had to face. Dif- ferent methods must be devised for solv- ing them; but the spirit in which we ap- proach them must -be the same as the #pirit with which Lincoln and his fellows in council, his followers in war, approached these problems, or ejse this nation will fall. ft will hot fail. It will succeed, because we still have in us the spirit of the men of '6l. (Applause.) We are a nation with a domain such as no republic in the history of the world has even approached For “weal or woe we are a reat power a great nation. We cannot escape play the part of a great nation. We can play It fll or well; but play it we must. A small nation can play a small part; not a great nation. Upon the success of the experiment of free gov- ernment conducted In a spirit of orderly liberty here on this continent depends not only the weifare of this nation, but de- pends the future of free government in the entire world (applause). It behooves us not only to exult in our privileges, but soberly to .realize our responsibilities. Hitherto republics have failed, the re- publics of antiquity went down; the re. publics of middle “ages went down, al- though tried on a much smaller scale than our, and although in consequence the ex- periment would have seemed hazardous, fundamentally the cause of the failure of those republics could be found in the fact that ultimately each intended to become not a member of the whole people doing ustice to each member of the republic, ut to a_ c¢lass; sometimes the control of the ravummcn: slipped into the hands of an oligarchy; sometimes it slipped into the hands of a mob. In efther case the result was the same; it was exactly as the ma- terlal for the abiding welfare of the re- public were turned into a government in which the few oppressed the many, or it was_turned Into a government in which the many plundered the few. Either form of perversion of the governmental prin- ciple spelled death and ruln to the coun- try, It did not avall to have escaped Scylla if wreckage came on Charybdls; it Was of no use to have escaped one form of ruin if ruin came at the other end of the pole. Why It Wil Live, This government will succeed because it must and shall be kept true to the prin- ciples for which the men of Lincoln's gen- eration fought (applause). This is not and never shall be a government of plutocracy. (Applause.) This is not and never shall be a government of a_mob. (Applause.) It is overnment of liberty, by and through the law; a government in which no man i8 to be permitted either to domineer over the less well off or to plunder the better off. (Applause) It is a government In which each man {s to be guaranteed his right; and in return in which it is to be seen that he does not wrong his fellow. (Applause.) The supreme safety of our country Is to be found in a fearless and honest admin- istration of the law of the land. (Applause.) makes not . the slightest difference Whether the offense against the law takes the form of cunning and on one hand or of physical violence on the other: in either case the law breaker must be held accountable and the law breaking stopped. (Applause.) When any man undertakes to entorce the law he is entitied to the sup- port of every decent man, rich or poor, no matter whit form the law breaking has taken. He is entitled to the support of all men in hs efforts. (Applause.) If he is worth his salt he will enforce the law whether he gets the support or not. At'the conclusion of the president’s speech luncheon was served at the executive man- sion to the presidential party, after which the visitors departed for Decatur, III, LINCOLN, 1il, June 4.—Upon the arrivel of President Roosevelt here no little con- cern was manifested by secret service men attending him over the discovery yesterday of dynamite near the railroad tracks over which the train passed. No plot, however, was discovered by the police authorities. While President Roosevelt was perfectly safe and was giving a rousing welcome, the officy closely guarded him and the train. More of an Edpansionist. INDIANAPOLIS, June 4—The presiden- tial special arrived in Indianapolis at 9:05 tonight. A drizzling rain did not prevent 5,000 people from gathering immediately in front of the Union station to greet him. The Marion club, headed by Mayor Book- walter, acted as the formal reception com- mittee. Governor Durban was in the shed awalting the president. Senators Fair- banks and Beveridge were on the train. The factory whistles and locomotives blew a greeting and there was a continuous burst of enthusiastic cheers when the president appeared. During the speech of the presi- dent which followed, some one from an overlooking window shouted: “The Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire- en is for Roosevelt.” The president smiled and replied: “I know it. I feel that Indiana is solid for me. Mayor Bookwalter Introduced President Roosevelt, who said: 1 have been from the Atlantic to the Pacific and now well nigh back to the Atlantic and the thing that has struck me more than all else wherever I have been is the fundamental unity of our people. 1 went on my trip a pretty good expansionist I come back a better one hecause I have seen our people on the Atlantic coast, in the Mississippi Valley in the great plains and among the Rockies and on the Pacific coast.” I fail to see how any man can look 4t them and not see that Inevitably they belong to the expanding and not to the stationary races of mankind. Our nation must play a great part in the world. We cannot help it. All that we can decide is whether we will play that part well or (Il and 1 know you too well, my fellow coun- trymen, to doubt what your deciston In that case will be. This people has a mighty destiny before it and it can work out that destiny only a8 it has worked out lts destiny in the past. There will be no radi- cal or extreme action by our nation. We are for all our spirit of protess essentially a conservative people. We belleve in con- servatism, but it is a conservatisin not of timidity, 'not of mere stolidity. It is the conservatism of good sense. We do not in- tend to be spurred into rash action or to be frightened out of action that is needed by the circumstances of the case. The results of the past five yoars have put us In a posi- tion of dominence not only on_this_conti- nent but in the Pacific ocean. Our destiny entails upon us the acceptance of certain great responsibility. Exactly as our respect is reserved for the man In private life who does his duty. who does” not shirk work. who endeavors to find his account In doing a deed worth doing and doing it well, 80 nationaily our respect goes 10 the nation which seeks neither to invite nor to aveld trouble, but to take it as it comes, If it is an incident in working out its mighty career. Our people have ever shown in their history that combination -of energy and common sense which must be shown by every great masterful race. As an Incident In following that historie poliey of our nation I ask our people to see to it that there is no halt in the bulld- ing up of the American navy (applause) T ask that it be bullt up and kept up, not for the pur of war. but to keep the peace. (Applause) T think that forelgn nations feel pleasantly toward but T think also that it will help them to con- tinue to feel pleasantly if we have a good navy. (Applause.) Following his brief address the president was escorted to the train amid cheers and from the rear platform waived his adieus fifteen minutes from the time the train pulled into the station. 4 What They Demand.

[JUDICIAL CONVENTION DATE Oommittee Fixes on July 11 and Makes Apportionment of Delegates. COUNTY COMMITTEE TAKES NO ACTION Lack of Quorum Does Not Prevent Dine: s to Ad » Holding Convention Too Early. jon y ot The republican judicial committee for the |Fourth district met twice yesterday after- {noon in ths office of Chairman Baldrige and finally fixed the date and place of the convention for Saturday, July 11, in Wash- Ington hall at 2 o'clock. The representa. tion in the convention will be 185 dele- gates, or one for every 100 votes cast for McKinley in 190. Among the counties the following apportionment was made: Douglas, 141; Burt, 19; Sarpy, 17; Wash- ington, 8 Lack of a quorum prevented the ex- pected meeting of the republican county committee, there being only twenty-five out of the sixty-one members present, in- cluding & goodly number of proxles. After considerable diecussion as to whether the judicial convention should be early or late the members present adjourned to meet again, at 1 o'clock this afternoon, when they will try to arrange for primaries to select delegates by direct vote to the judiclal and state conventions. F. A. Brogan, at yesterday's session, precipitated a division of opinion by de claring in favor of a late convention. He argued that with the convention on June 27 as the judiclal committee first proposed it, the people would not have sufficient op- portunity to determine the fitness- of the candidates, and that they would take little interest in the contest owing to the lack of other political races. He also ad- vocated giving the voters an opportunity to express their personal choice of can« didates in some manner. Candidates Ask Early Convention, Chairman Baldrige of the judiclal com- mittee, who was present, sald that all the avowed candidates had asked for an early convention In order that they may get away on usual summer vacations. He said he thought an early convention would keep judicial politics apart from the county fight and would be a good thing on that score. “I want to protest against the manner proposed for selecting delegates to the judicial convention,” sald Mr. Brogan. “The plan of sending delegates direct to the convention works abuse. The ward delegations are traded back and forth and it amounts to a disgraceful swapping of ward strength. This is likely to force unworthy candidates upon the party sim- ply because they are able to jump in and capture a ward delegation. The people are growing tired of being called upon to sup- port men for the bench merely on account of party. This serlous matter of select- Ing judges should be handled carefully. I am interested in this matter solely be- cause I wish to see a strong judicial ticket and 1 dislike to see undue haste.” Mr. Brogan then raised the point of no quorum and the meeting was adjourned. The county committee had prepared and had ready before it a resolution calling the joint primaries for June 2, apportioning the ninety-two delegates allotted Douglas county to the state convention as follows: Each ward in Omaha, six: south Omaha, eleven; each country precinct except Clon. tarf, two; Clontarf, one. The proposed division of the judiclal delegates in Doug- las county is as follows: Each ward in Omaha, nine; South Omaha, elghteen; each country precinet, 3. HUSTLING COMMITTEE PLANS Divides City Into Districts and Ape points Men to Work in Each Division, The hustling committee of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben has divided the eity into districts and appointed a subcommittee to work In each district. The assignments are as follows: Hodder and Mann—Farnam and Harney, north and south side, west of Sixteenth to Twenty-fourth, which will include _the Board of Trade bullding.

This decision was reached at this week's meeting of the club, which will be the last until next fall. Each mem- ber will have to exhibit one big plece and one small one, and, considering the talent that the club includes, the women feel that they should be able to furnish a feature of more than ordinary consequence. The club now includes twenty-one active mem- bers, and an effort will be made to Interest the other successtul ceramic artists of the city, who number nearly as many more. The success of the club's exhibit at the Chicago falr proved an impetus to the work of the entire state, and with thelr experlence since then the members feel that the St. Louls enterprise should be jeven more successful. Monda: meeting was occupled chiefly with this discussion, and the members are most enthusiastic. A paper was read by Mrs. Morrill on the work of the club. Mrs. J. C. Comfort was re-elected president, Mrs. Frank King was re-elected secretary and Mrs. Wappich elocted treasurer. The new year book will be issued In about two weeks and will in- clude the plan of work for the year. The next meeting will be held in the fall at the home of Mrs. Frank King at Benson. One of the most potent evidences that the Consumers' league has become a fac- tor to be reckoned with ls found in the several close imitations of the Consumers’ league label, that are being put upon the products of some of the large eastern man- ufacturing establishments, especially cloth- ing and underwear, While this will neces- sitate additional care on the part of those who would avoid the product of the sweat- shop and other bad labor conditions, it is also an encouragement to those who have worked to advance ‘the Influence of the league, for it proves that the demand for the league labeled goods Is having its ef- fect and has become sufficlently strong to | induee those who cannot give guaranty of proper manufacturing conditions that the label insures to devise an imitation to satisty it. The Washington Federation of Women's Clubs will hold its seventh annual con- vention at Everett June 24 to 2. The Women's Christlan assoclation has received material assistance of late toward | the new bullding for the Old People's home. One gift has equipped the bullding with gas fixtures; another furnishes water for the first year, while others, though not as extensive, are equally valuable and sential. These contrfbutions with the rou- tine business constituted the chlef subjects for discussion &t the regular meeting of the assoclation held on Tuesday morning.

When the case was called for hearing it developed that John O. Yeliser, who repre. sented the Walters' union and the officers thereof, did not represent the entire body of | defendants, whjch includes all of the em- ployes of the restaurant proprietors who quit work May 1 and tha: no service had been had upon any of the defendants ex- cept those represented by Mr. Yeiser. As these defendants had not been served they could not be bound by any decision of the court in the case upon the hearing for permanent injunction, There was considerable talk over the matter before the attorneys for the plain- tiffs finally gave notice tnat they would begin a new sult against all of the defend- ants and see that each was gerved before the next hearing. In this discussion Judge Baxter suggested that “the attorneys for the waiters and for the restaurant pro- prietors go into executive session and reach some conclusion of law and fact, find some basis upon which the trouble could ba settled and have the entire strike settled by the approval of their action by their clients.” Yeiner is Willing. Mr. Yelser accepted the suggestion for his clients and said that while he could not bind thom in any settiement without their consent he believed that with Mr, Mahoney and himselt & conclusion could be reached which would be approved by both of the parties to the sult and the trouble would be ended Mr. Muhoney did not take so kindly to the suggestion. He sald that up to that time there had been no indication that the attorneys could arrive at any agr ment as to the law in the cas clients were operating thelr business suc- cessfully and did not désire any relations with the defendants in the case; that all they desired would be the protection of the court in transacting thelr business, giving to the defendants such rights as they may have under the law and to have those rights determined he would at 2 o'clock file a petition, verified according to law, or supported by aMdavits, asking for a tem- porary restraining order against all of the defendants in the case. He sald he would ask to have a date fixed for the hearing upon application for temporary injunction and let the hearing for permanent {njune- tion came up in its regular order before the court.

The re- ceipts at all the markets except Kansas City have increased In the last three dr and a sharp decliie Is the result. One packer says there was a shortage of both hogs and cattle. I cannot understand why the market should decline under such con- ditions. This is a mere subterfuge to gull the unsuspecting consumers—to charge them an extortionate price when there is absolutely no grounds or reason for doing 80. There is a decline of 20 cents in hogs today, cattle is 15 cents lower. Would like to see whether or not the packers will mark the price down on dressed meat cor- respondingly. READER.

Just to show that comedy drama, soolety drama and melodrama does not exhaust the versatility of the Ferris Bummer Stock company, a rollicking farce comedy was put on for the midweek change of bill last night. If genuine, unrestrained laughter is to be taken as a measure, the affair was a success. The house was jammed, as usual, and the laughter was continuous. “A 17ight of Frolic" was the bill and it was served with the same energetic at- tentton to detall that has marked all of the productions of this company. Mr. 8id dons cnd Miss Pavey find in It parts that are not such wide departures from thelr accustomed work, but others of the com- pany found opportunities for venting their funmaking abilities to the evident satls- faction of the audience. “A Night of Frolic” will be the blll for the'rest of the week.
