AN RAFAEL, July 4—The great day of San Rafael's street fair and carnival has come and gone. From early morning un til late at night the city was joyous with carntval gayety. From the starting of the fore- rcon parade to the touching off of tke last rocket.in to-night’s pyrotechnic dis- play the many thousands of visitors found every hour crowded with entertainment. 1t is estimated that 15,000 spectators wit- nessed the street pageant, while nearly Lalf that number were here to-night. @he celebration will end to-morrow night with a Mardi Gras fete. King Lea- far Nas (which spelled backward denotes that ’is 'ighness takes his name from an enterprising city) will arrive early to- morrow, and in the evening Queen Mai- guerite will surrender her scepter to him. The parade this morning was the finest ever witnessed here. There were 3800 per- sons in line, with 156 carriages and 201 men and women on horseback. Owing to the inadequacy of the train service,which delayed the San Francisco contingent, the march did not commence until 11 o'clock.

Judge Morrow in a short speech comtli- mented the S8an Rafaelites upon.the bes.u- tiful pageant just wiinessed, declaring it to have been one of which a city of far greater size might feel justly proud. “Not alone should your citizens be rroud of this grand carnival,” he contin- ued, “but they *should feel justly proud that your city is one of the many in this | great’ republic, this free and beneficen] government of ours. As we gather td- day around the altars of our country to dedicate the cause of freedom, of justice and of self-government we all should Zeel proud of our flag and our country.” McKINLAY’S ORATION. Judge Morrow introduced Hon. E. B. Martinelli, who read the Declaration of Independence. The band played “The Star-Spangled Banner,” after which Hon. Duncan E. McKinlay was introduced as orator of the day. Mr. McKinlay in sub- stance said: _ Most Graclous Queen, Royal Courtiers, La- dies, Gentlemen and Friends: Could we by some superhuman process have omnisclent vis- ion for & short time we could behold a scene, a picture fllled with devotion for our country, a longitudinal devotion of falth and adoration for our flag. Could we but comprehend our whole nation we could behold the splendid East, with its maZnificent emporiums of trade; behold the North with its towns and villages, its empire of commerce; behold the West with its fertile tablelands, verdure cov- ered valleys and river bottoms, the great store- house of ome-half of the raw material of the world; behold the South rising out of a damn- able chaos of warfare to what It is to-day— rising like a great glant cap-a-ple. But that is not all. Behold far Alaska, its scintillating grandeur. And we can behold further, the Indies of the East and the West where for thousands of years their lands hayve been blessed by equatorial sunlight. So we be- hold all parts of this great country amalgh- mated and consolidated: all lands, sections, coasts, islands, both latitudinal and longi- tudinal, beneath the stars and stripes are united forever and forever. We meet to-day in San Rafael to celebrate the’ birth' of our loyalty and our love for our country. We have to-day witnessed a most glorious pageant; we have seen our flags and banners streaming to the breeze and know that in_our country plenty and prosperity prevail. We sometimes are asked anrd even ask our- selves if Americans are not retrograding in certain deep love for country, for its institu- tions and its nationality. Doés not the hustle of business cause us to lay aside that true patriotism which we should display? The Germans go back to their fatherland when danger is near them; the French when they hear the ‘‘Marseillaise’’ desire to join their reg- iments and the loyal subjects of Great Britain stretch forth thelr hand when the bugle pro- claims war. When this spirit is so thoroughly displayed by other nations’ subjects, we won- der if we have learned our lessons of patrioti- ism aright. Call back the revolution; after the revolution in 1812 we gained recognition from all the world and won thelr respect and honor; with the Mexican war we gained Texas’ freedom; when we were plunged into the differ. ences of the North and South. That war was a crucible where all mistakes were rectified. We have thought, what will be the fufure? Shall our country crumble like classic Greece? No, it can not be. We are builded around a cornerstone of liberty, cquity, justice and hu- manity, the sum total of the logic and phlleso- phy evolved by the wisest statesmen, the cui- mination of the Anglo-Saxon doctrine, Our jdea is and cver shall be to give liberty, not to take it away; to advance civilization, rot to retard it. LR Yachts in Sham Naval Battle. LONG BEACH, July 4—Forty thousand is the estimate placed upon the number of persons who were here to-day, twenty- five thousand of them coming by way of | the Salt Lake route. A sham naval bat- “tle between several yachts and motor launches a short distance out at sea this evening was a spectacle enjoyed bv the Vina Vander # vigitors. CELEBRATE COUNTRIES Citizens Abroad All Duly Observe the Day. EIPSIG (Germany), July 4—The United States Embassador, An- drew D. White, according to his usual custom, responded to the toast of “The President” at the dinner of the American colony here to-day, at which the United States Consul, B. H. Warner Jr., presided. The Embassador cited the German historian Neuman’s remark, *In what age or coun- try will you find so large an array of rulers, every one of them a man of i tegrity and every one of them a man of | high capacity, as in the case of the long series of Presidents of the United State: every one, even by the avowal of his ene- mies, a man of high character and abil- ity ?” White alluded to President Roosevelt's originality, surpassing that of any known President except Lincoln and to the variety of his gifts, unequaled by any predecessor except John Quincy Adams. “Like Jefferson,” he added, ‘‘he has a g?«'gnt respect for the opinion of man- Referring to the St. Louis Exposition, ‘White saia: “She wili indeed rejoice in the material prosperity of our country. The visitor will be interested by the display of art. science and technical skill, whether of our own or other nations. Espeelally will he welcome the results of German love and truth and beauty as displayed in scienti- fic, artistic and technical contributions.’ RELATIONS WITH WORLD. After alluding to the influence of Ger- ure in the enrichment of Ameri- ization and in the enrichment of the republic, White said: “With these feelings the President nat- urally desires the best relations between the United States and other parts of the world, especially the United States and Germany. He has more than once uttered this idea in public and those who know him best know from his expressions in private that German ideals and German devotion to truth and duty are especially recognized and honored by him. Within the past year he said to an old friend who was leaving him in order to return to Europe: ‘I have had love and admira- tion for Germany from boyheod up, and when I say this I mean it. You know me well enough to be sure that when I say | a thing I mean it.’ “I may add that as he made the remark | quoted a German book by a German pro- fessor was lying open on his table just below his hand. "Those who know him best know that, with the possible exce; tion of Garfield, no President ever so fully understood what Germany has given and is glving to civilization. But, alas, Gar- fleld>was never granted that which he had so longed and planned for—the op- portunity to visit Germany and study that which Germany offers. In Mr. Roose- velt's attitude toward foreign Govern- ments we may be sure he will be firm and strong, but never truculent.” BERLIN, July 4—Three hunared Amer- icans chartered a steamer and went to Grunau, After games and sports the party dined together, Consul General Mason presiding.

CKITICIZES ADMINISTRATION. Hill Cannot Keep Out of Politics Evean on the Fourth. NEW YORK, July 4—Tammany Hall to-day ecelebrated the anniversary of American independence.

Bourke Cockran, who recently returned to the Tammany fold, delivered the principal address, and Lhe other “long talk” was made by Supreme Ceurt_Justice O’Gorman. Ex-Senator David B. Hill in his letter of regret said: The foreign policy of the present national administration in relation to the inhabitants of the lippines Istands is a disgrace to civilization.
