And can this common instinct of the most esive peoples of the world—this common usion of ihe ablest statesmen of other na- rs—be baseles If the opposition ask why this is the mission of the American people now more than here- tofore, 1 answer that before any people as- sumes these great tasks it goes through a pro- solidation end unification, just as & chieves maturity before he assumes the tasks of a man. Great Britain never became a colonizing and administrating power until the separate people of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, welded into @ single indivisible people, were ready to go forth as a national unit and 4o the great work to which the world was calling it. The Cerman people did not embark upon this natural policy until separate dukedoms. principalities and kingdoms were finally welded by & common war, common blood, and common interesis into & great sin- gle and indivisible peopie ready to go forth as a national unit to the great work to which the world was calling them.

Then her decline began. She lost Canada. The Corsican roid Loulsiana to us. | And_to-day French statesmen at last realize the fatal operation of this law when once diso- | beved, and so are seeking to become one of | the colonizing and administrating powers of | sarth again. ~And so the American republic has been golng through the process of fitting | it for the execution of this natural law of civ- fiization. Hitherto we have had local divisions. | The provosition that we were & single people, 2 pational ypit. and not a sum of segregated factions, wa# denfed. And it required war and commerce and time—the shedding of blood, the uniting of communities by railroads and tele- graphs, the knitting together of the fabric of nationality by that wonderful loom of human intelligence called the poet; and finally, by the common and united effort of A forelgn war, to bring us 10 4 consciousness of Our power as a people. And there is never in nature a powgr without a corresponding purpose. And shall we now stop this prccess of nature? We are this at last, a great national unit ready to carry out that universal law of eivill- zation which requires of every people who have reached our high estate to become colonizers of new lands, administrators of orderly gov- ernment over savage and senile peoples and the planters of our Institutions outward and ever outward toward the ever-widening hori- - | caused nglish | n acquiring places of power and commer- Ivantage at the world’s strategic points. important a limitation upon our power, ierwise inherent ndoubted terms in our constitu- defy the opposition to the Government to find such a prohibition in that great instru. rent The constitution says: T gress shall have power to dispose and make all needful | respecting terri; leave the heights of moral nter upon the o n ground of even t we will meet | them If they declare that if we keep the Phil- | ibpines the American workingm by competition compete with us, »duce what we wa I Prosace It | ro v would not competa Their products, their il are complements, not with ours.

But the Democratic party tolerates no independent thought. It concedes rothing to & minority, no matter how wise, honest and herolc that minority may be. The opposition demands that the shedding of biood shall cease. So does the Government. But hlood will continue to flow until American sympathy with the insurrection is repudiated ¥ the American people. If from the first there had been united support of the American Gov- ernment in holding aloft the American flag in the Philippines, no bloodshed would have been necessary, Do lves of American soldiers re- quired to_keep It floating there. Our dead soldiers! The American graves In that land of sunset! The vacant chairs, flag-draped, in the homes of the republic! It is a subject for speech. And those who cheered the misguided natives on to shoot those soldiers down! Those who held out hope to Insurrection againet the flag! It is a subject too terrible for thought. What_ sald Lawton—Lawton, Indiana’s pride and the republic’s Bayard “without fear and without reproach”™? These are Lawton's words of fire: “If 1 am shot by a Filipino bullet it might as well come from one of my own men because * * * the continuance of the fichting is chiefly due to reports that are sent out from America,” Who will wear on his fore. head the everlasting brand which Lawton's words burn and shall ‘burn while American soldiers continue to fall under the flag in the Philippines? I appeal to no passions: 1 state the facts. The defeat of the opposition to the Goternment here {s the defeat of the opposi- tionk to the Government there.

The State, in ad- | dition to these, of which Republicans are most hopeful, is Idaho, and their claims | are sufficiently well founded to put Idaho into the doubtful column.

FOUR PERSONS KILLED BY A WATERSPOUT Much Damage Done by a Terrible Storm in Town of Fer- guson, Iowa. DES MOIN Towa, Sept. 25.—Four persons were killed and several others severly injured in a waterspout and tor- nado at Ferguson this evening. The rail- way station was badly wrecked, several cars were blown from the tracks and more or iess damaged and many houses were destroyed. Wire connection with Ferguson is interrupted and it is impos- sible to learn the names of all those killed and injured. A partial list follow: Killed — Child of JOHN LOVEDAY, hotel proprietor. Injured—William Roberston, Milwaukee agent; James Mullen, Western Union telegraph operator; John Loveday, hotel proprietor. A severe waterspéut and wind and rain are reported from the vicinity of Redfield and Madrid, where the tracks are washed out in_many places. Towns along Great Westérn road also report a hard wind and rain this side of Marshalltown. Ferguson is on the main line of the Chi- cago, Milwaukee and St. and about forty miles east of Madrid, in Malshall County, fifteen miles southeast | of Marshalltown. It is a comparatively | new town, with a population of between 400 and 500 people. RAILROADS MAY POOL ON TRANSPORTING SOLDIERS | Representatives of Four Transconti- nental Lines Discuss | Plans. CHICAGO, Sept. 2.—Executives of the | Western railroads were in sesslon to-day 1in regard to the advisability ‘of forming ! a pool on_the military business to and | from San Francisco. After much discus- | sion & committee representing the:Santa | Fe, Southern Pacific, Union Pacific_and | Rio Grande roads was appointed and re- | ?uested to submit a report concerning the ormation of a pool on military business | and organization of a transcontinental combination on passenger business. The committee presented a report later in the day. The provisions of the report favored the formation of two pools, one by lines east of Denver and El Paso and the other of lines west of those gateways. In this proviso the settlement of their | differences is left to the Santa Fe aud the | Southern Pacific without involving other lines in the dispute. The former company demanded a larger | percentage of business than the roads east | of the points named cared to consider. It | is believed, however, that on this point will bé reached to-morrow and that the transcontinental pool ar- ;angement will become an accomplished act.

S R Vice Presidential Candidate Tells | What the Republican Party i Has Done for the Work- | ingman. R, FORT COLLINS, Colo., Sept. 25.—When the Roosevelt special arrived at Eaton this morning it was met by the citizens | and the school children, marshaled by | their teachers, all with small American | flags in their hands and smiles on their faces. The Governor was Introduced by Senator Wolcott as a New York man with Western sympathies and Western ideas and ideals. Governor Roosevelt said: Fundamentally the issues. in this campaign are but two, the issue of preserving the condi- tions under which this phtion has prospered and gone on to such a pitch of material well being at home and the issue of keeping un- dimmed the honor of the flag abroad. Th- man in private life who has to choose hetwe:n wealth and honor has a hard choice. If he is worth anything he will choose honor, but if he has both honor and wealth on the same side he is a fool when he goes against it. At Greeley Governor Roosevelt was es- corted to a stand in Lincoln Park, where he was again-introduced by Senator Wol- cott, and said in part: 1 have just come down from Idaho with Ses ator Shoup, who served in your Colorado ca alry during the civil war. Now I am traveling with General Hale, whom you sent out at the | head of your sons and brothers to the far dis- | | Tant ialands of the Eastern seas to raise the | | flag, which shall not be hauled down. Semator | Wolcott has- spoken of imperialism. I there | ever existed two phantoms that are put for- ward to frighten political children they are | imperialism and militarism. The Governor then went on to show, as | he has frequently done before, that with the present standing army there is only eighty-six one hundredihs of a soldier for every 1000 of population. He also said that Colorado, as part of the Loulsiana territory, wi acquired in exactly the same manner as the Philippines, by treaty and purchase. At Denver Coliseum Hall. the largest auditorium in the city, was crowded to the doors when Chairman Uzzell called the night's meeting to order and”introduced Governor Roosevelt. “Parson” Uzzell, by invitation, preached to the Rough Riders at their_ first annual reunion at Las Vegas, N. M. During his address Governor Roosevelt declared that there was no more excuse for the breaking of a promise made upon the stump than the breaking of one made in private life. It was just as bad, he said, for the people tq demand promises impos. sible of fulfiliment as for the candidate to make them.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD. A% a Few Facts on the Same Subject. We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about vegeta- rianism and many other fads along the same line. Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee Is served and the food crank is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore ad- vanced to prove that meat was never in- tended ,for human stomachs, and almost make @s believe that our sturdy ancestors who lived four-score years In robust health on roast beef, pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of health. Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories about the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any Kind, from bacon to acorns. A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, gnd a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meals is undoubtedly the best. As compared with grains and vegetables, meat furnishes the most nutriment in a highly concentrated form and is digested and is assimilated more quickly than veg- etables and grains. Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject says: “Nervous persons. people run do in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it.
