On the run from Boston the towns of West Medford, Winchester and North Billoyca turned out immense crowds, who gave a rousing cheer as thg train passed by. At each place the President appeared on the platform and acknowledged the greetings. Arriving at the speaker’s stand, the Presi- dent was presented to the people by the Mayor. % The President first said he wished to lay special stress upon the greeting of the men of the Grand Army of the Republic and to his comrades of the Ninth Regi- ment, beside whom, he said," “I myself served at Santiago.” (Cheers and ap- plause.) He continued: When I got on the train this morning one of the first to greet me was ex-Governor Allen of Porto Rico, your fellow-townsman. (Ap- plause.) Now you don’t hear much about the government of Porto Rico because there i nothing sensational in a complete . success. (Laughter and applause.) ~Under Governor Al- len and since under his successor, Porto Rico has been governed so well that it is not en- titled to any place in the news. (Laughter.) Now, gentlemen, we have done our full duty by Porto Rico. We have done our duty by Cuba. But 1 want to ask the people to act further than under a sense of bare duty. To act in a spirit of generosity such as befits & great republic in dealing with a new and Weaker republic which itself has started on its career of government. And I want further- more that our people should be awake to their own interest on the seas and lands south of our own country. We drove out those who had been oppressing Cuba and we cleaned house for them. Not an easy task, for many of those cities had never been cleaned before in their entire history. We introduced a school system. We made justice in fact as well as in name. We stamped out the plague of wel- low fever, a plague which was a menace not merely to'Cuba but to our own Southern States, and then we left them independent. But from the very necessities of the case we are bound to have intimate relations with them. Cuba has got to be, in a sense, a part of our internal policy system, and 1 ask most earnestly that in return we make her part of our economic systom by establishing reciprocal trade rola; tions with her. (Applause and cheers and cries of “Right."”) GREAT MARKET IN CUBA. I ask it in her interest and I ask it in ours. There is a great market in Cuba and I wish to see it controlled in the interest of our own people. I am speaking in one of the oldest industrial centers of this country and in one of the places in which modern industrial- ism in America took its rise. I am speaking in a place which, in addition to being an in- dustrial center, has always been willing to de- vote its best blood and its effort on behalf of any moral question that touched the con- sciences of its citizens. I think, men and women of Lowell, that you are in those two points typical of the best’ American citizenship. You have builded up this city through the de- velopment of your factories, through the busi- ness skill and enterprise and the manual labor of_your sons. You have done that, and when the country called you sent your sons to answer the call.

LAWRENCE, Mass., Aug. 2%.—President Roosevelt and his party, amid the boom- ing of a salute, were received here by Mayor Leonard and members of the city government to-day. The President was escorted to a temporary stand erected at the station, where he addressed one of the largest crowds that ever gathered in this cjty. Splendid weather conditions favored the event. The President was ted with enthusiastic cheers when he arose to make his address. He said: This is_the section of the country in which the first blood was shed in the Revolutionary War that made us & nation, and it was here also that the two cities of Lowell and Law- rence gave their sons to pour out thelir life blood, the first of the ocean of life blood poured out from '61 to '65 to keep this nation one and great and free. And so it was characteristic of your city which sent these men here to the great war when a legser war came up, my com- rades, men of the Ninth Regiment with whom I served before Santiago in your turn sprang to the country’s call when once there was war in the land. (Cheers.) And other com- rades of yours, men Whom we know, men of the Ninth Regiment, other men in the far-off Phi]- ippines have after th of unspeakabl tofl and hardship, against a cruel, recl and elusive €oe, finally won the victory for the American flag. Our people owe the greatest debt possible to you who fought in' the great crisis in the war, but there is & debt ow- ing also to the men who so gallantly did their duty during the past three: years, to say that the honor of the flag which you han e? to them unstained should be kept undimmed. (Ap- lause.) And now they have fought and their Buccess has meant what success_of the American soldier has always meant. You tri- umphed and your foes and detractors said that as mighty an army as yours meant the establishment of & despotism in this country, and the minute that the war was over you wént back to the plow, to the factory and the farm and the office and became citizens again. (Ap- lause.) And now in the Philippines our sol- Siers Fave fought and won, To do what? To leave the country and establish the rule of civil suthority under the American flag. And now we have brought peace to the islands. They are better off than ever before. Never in their history has each man had as he has now, such a chance for life, liberty and the pursuit of bappiness. You have brought selt-governin individual freedom to the Filipinos of a kin that they could never have known under an anarchic tyranny of their own. Now we will fovern the islands well. We will govern them n their interests and our interest also. Wheth- er we will or not, we as a nation front a great destiny. ‘e can decide whether we will do our work badly or well, but we cannot help doing it. We have got to do it somehow, and I ask that all ‘men stand shoulder to shoulder as Americans to see that they do it well. After s ng the President stepped back to the train. As it began to move ‘whistles from a dozen engines were blown and the battery guns b again. e train left at 10:30 on schedule time for Haverhill. TALKS ABOUT THE NAVY, HAVERHILL, Mass., Aug. %.—Presl- dent Roosevelt was greeted here by a crowd - which packed the route through which he was driven from the station to ‘Washington Square, where he delivered a twenty-minute address, and illed all available space around the stand from which he spoke. The decorations along the route were the most elaborate ever seen in this vicinity. Constant cheering revailed from the time that the Presi- ent arrived until he began his address and lnlerr%gflon! while he spoke were frequent. e President said: Naturally, at the home of Secretary Moody, I should like to say a word or two about the navy. You see that when one Massachu- setts man would leave the Navy Department I would have to find another Massachusetts man to take his place. I think that when we touch on the navy we are sure of such a response out of the mountains and great plains of the West as upon the Atlantic or Pacific seaboards. The entire country is vitally in- terested in the navy, because an efficient navy of an adequate size is mot only the best guarantee of peace, but it is also tfie surest means for seelng that it war does come the result shall be honorable to our good name and favorable to our natlonal interests. Any really great nation must be peculiarly sen- sitive to two things: Stain on the natlonal honor at home and disgrace to the national arms abroad. Our honor at home, our honor in domestic and internal affairs is at all times in our own keeping and depends simply upon the natlonal possession of an awakened public conscience. t the only way to make our honor as affected, not by our own deeds, but by the deeds of others, is by readiness in ad- vance. In three great crises in our history dur- ing the nineteenth century—in the war of 1812, in the Civil War and agaln in the Span- ish war—the navy rendered to the nation ser- vices of literally incalculable worth. In the Civil War we had to meet antagonists even more prepared at sea than we were. On both the other occasions We encountered forelgn foes and the fighting was done entirely by ships built long in advance and by officers and crews who had been trained during years of sea service for the supreme day when their qualities were put to the final test. PREPAREDNESS COUNTS. It was this preparedness which was the true secret of the enormous difference in efficiency between our navy and that of the Spanish nation. There was no lack of courage and devotion among the Spaniards, but on our side, in addition to the courage and devotion, there wes also that training which comes only as the result of years of thorough and painstak- ing practice. ~Annapolis is, With the sole ex- ception of its sister academy at West Poinf the most typically democratic and American school of learning and preparation that there ic in the entire country. There each man enters on his merits, stands on his merits and graduates into service, where only his merit will enable him to be of value. The enlisted men are of fine type, as they needs must be to do their work well, and out of the fine material provided the finished man- of-warsman is evolved by years of sea service. Tt is impossible after the outbreak of war to improvise either the ships or the men of a navy. The shipbullders and gunmakers must keep ever on the alert, so that no rivals pass them by, and. the officers and enlisted men on board the ships must In thelr turn, by the exercise of unflagging and Intelligent zeal, keep themselves fit,to get the best use out of the munitions of war Intrusted to their care. The gun is always important, but the man who uses it is more important etiil. ‘We must always endeavor to perfect our navy in all its duty in times of peace and above all in maneuvering in a sea way and marksmanship with the great guns. In battle the only shots that count are those that have been well atmed, and marksmanship is a matter of long practice and of intelligent Teasoning. A navy's efficlency in' a war de- pends mainly upon its preparedness at the out- get of that war. We are not to be excused as 2 nation if there\is not such preparedness of our nayy. No nation a right to undertake a big task unless it is prepared to do it in a masterful and effective style. LIt wond be an intolerable humiliation for us to embark on such a course of action as followed from our declaration of war _with Spain and not make good our words by deeds— not to be ready to prove our truth by our en- deavor whenever the need calls. The good work of building up the navy must go on without ceasing. The modern warship cannot with advantage be allowed to rust in disuse. It must be used in ‘active service even in time of peace. This means that there must be a constant replace ment of the ineffective by the effective. The Work of building up and keeping up our navy people as a whele the need of thorough and unflagging vigilance. Our navy is now efficlent; but we must be content - with no ofdinary degree of efficiency. Every effort must be made to bring it nearer to perfection. In g such effort the prime factor is to have at the head of the navy such_an official as your fellow townsman, Mr., Moody, and the next is to bring home to our people as a whole the need of thorough und ample preparation in advance; this preparation to take the form not only of continually build- ing ships, but of ose ships in com- mission under conditinne whinh will davelop Nation’s Struggles the highest degree of-efficiency among the of- ficers and enlisted men aboard them. FIRST PRESIDENTIAL VISIT. DOVER, N. H., Autg. 26.—For the first time in the history of Dover, which was founded in 1632, 'a President of the United States was a guest here to-day. Thou- sands joined in the welcome to President Roosevelt. On the arrival of the Presi- dental party they were received by Mayor A. G. Whittemore and a committee. Un- der an escort of militia the guests were escorted to a platform in Franklin Square, ghe:‘:ié.hs President delivered an address. e : Mr. Mayor, and you my fellow citizens, men and women of New Hampshire: I speak here in one of the oldest cities of the old thirteen colonies from which sprang the United States, and both in your past and Jour present you epltomise much of 'the ua- tional . e all prone to and think of the nation and State abstractions. If we will think of selves and our neighbors, how we get along and how they get along, we will have a pretty falr ides of what can be done, simply on a larger scale, in the nation and the State. Look at your own history here in Dover; o through the ploneer days and from them down to _the modern ‘city, the product, of the great industrialism of our time. ‘We are now here and 1 am addressing you all because of the great industrial expansions symbolized by your factories, by the railroad, the telegraph and all of thelr attendants. Wi would not be here if it were not for them, but their exercise has caused great questions to rise in our national life. It is more com- plicated business, Mr. Mayor, to run this city then it was.to run-Dover when Dover con- sisted of a dozen log cabins. With the growth in wealth and prosperity has come an ac- centuation of differences between men which do harm In two ways, which do harm when they make one man arrogant, which do equal barm when they make another man envious. Our salvation now, as in the old days, lies In the practical appiying of principles that in theory “we admit to be the only principles according to which it is possible to admin- ister this republic. The principle of treating each man cn his worth as a man is a principle of recognizing facts as they are, of recog- nizing our materlal needs, and therefore the absolute necessity to the prosperity which must satisfy those material needs and of recogniz- ing further than is to be he from people who.are content only to satisfy their material needs. If we have not t into the lift toward teousness, the lift toward something bet- n d it as a foundation. house without a foundation, but the founda- tion is not the house. You have got to have the superstructure; you have got to have, addition to it, business energy, the thrift and industry which has produced centers of indus- trial activity like this, You have to have, you must have in addition the spirit that made men of this nelghborhood foremost in the revolution, that made this State do her duty so well and 50 nobly in the civil war. We need business energy, business thrift. We need other things, too; we have got to have a gmvef ideal of our lives. Each man must do is duty by his neighbor both in private life and to the representative of himgelf and of his nelghbor, the state. And to do that you need three qualities. You need more, but you need three. Above all, honesty in the first place; you can do nothing without it. And that s not enough. I don't care how honest @ man is, If he is timid he is of very little use in the world; you have got to have courage as well as honesty. I do not care how brave and honest a man is, if he is a_natural born fool you can do little ‘with him. In addition to honesty, in addition to courage, you need common sense, and sometimes ne i tempted to think it much too uncommon a quality. You need those qualities in private life and you need them in public life. There are great problems ahead of us as a nation, but the really greatest problem is the problem of mak- ing belter men and better women of all of us. I thank you for listening. On m:ninx to the train the President loun({e thé representatives of Governor John F. Hill of Maine, who had come to escort the Presidential party across the New Hampshire line. PORTLAND, Me., Aug. 26.—President Rwsevilt came into Maine this afternoon after hiving visited many places in the other New England States and before his departure to-morrow night he will have visited every Congressional district in the State, the principal city in each district and thehome city of each of Maine’s United States Senators. At every stopping place along _the line a great crowd gathered and the President was accorded a genuine down East welcome. At Old Orchard, where the special train made its first stop after crossing the State line, thousands of persons from all parts of York and lower Cumberland counties had gathered. The halt was a brief one, only twenty minutes, but the President, after receiv- ing a tumultuous greeting, spoke briefly before the journey was continued. JES THE VETERANS. The President addressed his opening re- marks to several Grand Army veterans who were present and spoke of Maine's record in the Civil War. “In those days,” he said, ‘Maine was a lesson for all for the way her boys bore themselves in war. Since then and now she is alesson to us because of the high aver- age of citizenship that shows in her bor- ders, and I think it is the same reason in the one case as in the other. The fact is that here you have remained on the whole true to the old American theory of treat- ing each man on his worth as a man without regard to the incidentals of his osition. Now you over there (pointing). e was in the great war. Yes. hen you went to war and moved into battle you took an immense interest in what the man on your right hand and your left did, but you did not care if they stayed. That j¢ what you wanted. What you wanted was to know that the man had the right stuff in him. And if he had you were for him and if he did not you. were vot for him. You have got to have the same principle in citizenship. “You have got to apply the same prin- ciple in civil life that you made successful in the days when you fought because the nation called you in her direst need.” ‘When the train left for Portland Sen- ator Willlam H. Frye accompanied the !:fl!"y. " KEMP’S SUPPOSITORIES.
