PUTS HOUSE IN UPROAR nrpeatrd Efforts to Stop Torrent ot Yituprrmtfon Finally Succeed on Formal Vot noosovelt Is Called Bogus Hero, WA5HIX05TOX, Jan. IS. A sensa tional and bitter attack on President "Roosevelt -was made In the House to day by Wlllett. of New York. His re marks, which were delivered nner a license of s;eneral debate on the pen sion appropriation bill, were out short fey a vote of the House. Wlllett characterized the President as a "irariroyle. tyrant, pigmy descend ant of Dutch tradespeople, haytedder. fountain or bllllnBSSaie. a imitation of a Kliigr and bogus hero." Smith, of Missouri, pleaded for pen sions for certain military men of Mis souri; Lan-cley. of Kentucky, did like wise for some of his constituents. Morris, of Nebraska, attacked the House rules; Larrlngra, of Porto Rico, presented arguments to show that Porto Rico had not progressed politi cally, and Goulden. of New York: Powers, of Mississippi, and Kiefor. of Ohio, discussed the merits of the pen sion bllL Volley of Epithets. After declaring that In the face of all sorts of conditions. Americans were pos sessed of a universal sense of humor. IViilett said to such people, "it must be confessed a chief magistrate who has himself no sense of humor, moving like a hny-tedder over the haylleld of Amer ican activities, stirring up every drying blade of once green grass, to let It fall drier than before; quarreling one day with the practical politicians, then with the part-your-hair-in-the-mlddle reform ers, then with Socialism, then with the great industrial corporations, wrestling In agony with the spirit of Noah Web ster and our glorious English tongue; taking a fall out of nature fakers; ox liortlng our women to avoid race suicide, cannot be an unmixed nuisance. "He plays the tyrant, to be sure; but lie is a tvrant who fears the carnival tickler. He sees things that have a bad smell, but the fresh breexo of Capitol Hill does not let the odor linger. "He trios our patience, but he Is always good to laugh at. Thank heaven for the things that make ns laugh. Without them we might easily become raw. un tamed Anglo-Saxons, making much of Magna Cliarta, bellowing about an effete bill of rights, or even ready to light for freedom of thought, freedom of speech and freedom of the press, as did our un civilized ancestors at Lexington and Bunker Hill." w Blojrraphy of Roosevelt, Wlllett then gave a brief biography of Mr. Roosevelt, beginning with his experience as a cowboy, down to the present time, and accused him. in his early manhood of having had preposter ous notions, of "having knifed" Secre . t n Kulnp b "warrior alone in iiu y ijui-b, r Cuba." of having won the Governorship of New York by a mere fluke, when a false halo of Ban Juan Hill was above his head: the benericiary of assassins, and last, and crowning piece of luck, the nominee for President, when all the ajra-resslve elements of passion wanted to see their own candidate defeated. The mammoth Jocularity has got to laugh with every appearance; the gargoyle has . been funny from the hour H left its na tive quarry." Scoffs at Koot-evelfs Ancestry. Continuing. Wlllett said: "Andi Mr. Chairman, should the gentle man who views this curious figure with f..!F,rd admiration ak me how any son of Adam can be at the same time a hay tedder, a Jocularity and a gargovl. I can only answer that tills particular hero Is an eccentric exception to all rules, a solecism sul-generls. a mixed-metaphor-vlvant. an impossibility, n comet ' that roves at will regardless of the limitations of order and law that apply to earth and moon, to stars and planets. "He boasts of Irish blood, but no his toric Irishman would have treated an ally as he treated Mr. Harrtman. "He exults in n strain of the old Huguenot but the French gentleman does not fly into a passion and lash the horse of a timid young girl whose only offense Is Inadvertently passing' the royal party In a public highway. Even Louis MV was not that sort of a tyrant and Henry JV Henry of Navarre, the great Hugue not King, wore the white plume of coblesse oblige. "He tells, us that Southern aristocrats were among his polyglot ancestors; but j can inform him that. If the wife of a Robert Tombs or of a Jefferson Davis had been treated by him as Mrs. Minor Morris was. he would have been called out or branded as a coward if he had been a ten times President. "He Is proud to Insist that the family whose name he bears comes from Hol land: but -lis ready surrender to the politicians of his own party makes It clear enough that fat burghers who put up their shutters at the first beat of the j . . . o . have Iw.-n his nrorenl- tors.

Hear what this f9untain ol billingsgate has said of his predecessors in that high oHlec and own that no man s tongue should be stilled by such consid eration 7" ... He quoted from President Roosevelt s books In which the President U allied to have attacked Washington. Jefferson, Monroe. Jackson. Tyler. Pie roe and oth ers, and said the President had "tol eration only for the Adamses, who stood for Federalist aristocracy, and admira tion for Alexander Hamilton, the de feated champion of a . limited, mon- Of course," said Wlllett, "these condemnations roar as gently as any cooing dove when compared with his de nunciation of John Paul Jones as a 'pi rate" oT Napoleon tie -Great," as -utterly unscrupulous': of New England's Idolized Wendell PMilips as always Pettier mis chievous or ridiculous, and uyuaDy both ; of Thomas Pains, the first champion of American liberty, as a filthy little Athe ist1 of miracle-believing Roman Catholics ss '-persons of arrested mental develop ment: of Quakers as -quite as undesir able citizens as duelists, but he ha been frank enough in abusing other Presidents, to shut the l'ps of his defenders an the SUgrrfty of the Presidential otfloa,- Wl-lstT oscuarea jml ertadtt tbs gargor la alwsssjaas srtila, throwing to the swine." No king, bs said. In any limited monarchy was ever half so exigent or ever half so Implacable. "For a President," he . added, "you must go back to Napoleon the Great, the oldest member of the Gargoyles Ananias Club, who used to ask the wives of his thrifty favorites whether they could only afford one gown a year; who said once to the wife of one of his fighting marshals. Tour dress Is dirty,' and who Instated on doing all the matchmaking In his official circles." A King and a Court. The Democracy of Lincoln, he said, the bluff Americanism of Grant and Cleve land, the equally American suavity of Ar thur and McKinley had passed into his tory, along with the Joviality of Gar field and the Nonconformist thrift of Rutherford B. Hayes." "We have a King and a court now. Wlllett exclaimed, "as good an Imitation of the real thing known to the nobility of monarchlal countries as the scion of a family of trading Dutchmen can con coct." At this Juncture Wlllett called the roll of the so-called Ananias Club and said: Gargoyle's Distorted Features. "The earth is intoxicated and reels around our Jocularity, lie alone Is a personification of sobriety, temper ateness of statement, calmness of speech and action. The ever-moving hay-tedder hurries over the field, throwing upward the clover of politics, the tlm-oth- of zoology, the bluegrass of his tory and letting each blade fall a little dryer than It was before. "Jealousy you can read In the gar goyle's distorted features. You look on thoee twisted lines and it Is easy. oh, so easv, to understand the inso lence toward Dewey, the one great figure of the Spanish-American war. the hero who took Manila with the worst ships a rotten bureaucracy could find for him; the persistent defamation of Admiral Schley, who really fought the battle of Santiago Bay; the Insults heaped on General Miles, whose counsel was Ig nored In the expensive blunders of the land campaign at Santiago." The President. Wlllett declared, showed his teeth at all real heroes, "because real heroes are gall and wV.rmwood to bogus ones." Denounces Koosevelt's Acts. Continuing his denunciation, Wll lett charged that the President had bulldozed President Castro, had seen the Filipinos brutally treated; had marooned Colonel Stewart, whom he did not like; had kept' a young -nman from earning an honest living h tPllinar the truth: had allowed "scandalous conditions to exist in the Army and Navy." had compelled his subordinates "to act as hunting dogs for the Czar of Russia in trailing down men who have fought for liberty"; had practically re-established the John Adams ailen and sedition laws; had forced desertions from the Navy by allowing Intolerable treatment of sai lors, '"at the hands of the aristocracy of Annapolis officers"; had permitted the degrading of soldiers at West Point who had been put to menial work, and had given a Scotch verdict In con nection with the alleged Panama Canal scandal. In conclusion, he said, among other things, "you may say. then, that one individual gargoyle does not count for so much after alL No, not In the de velopment of centuries, but he counts vitally and continuously, as affecting the people who have to live under him. And the change from a Nero fiddling while Rome is burning to Vespasian calmly devoted to securing as good government as tendencies will permit. Is a change to be as devoutly welcomed by us as by the ancient Romans." Attempt to Clieck Torrent. Several times in the course of Wll letfs remarks be was called to order by Hughes, of West Virginia. "1 call him to order." Hughes exclaimed. "He is going ahead) with a lot of rot that neither the House nor the country Is In terested in.

Will the gentleman." , the chair pleaded, "please noi ouensivriy nr fer to the President of the United States?" The Republicans loudly applauded. Tr.i,.. ioaln protested that Wlllett was not using language permitted In debate. The presiding officer reiterated his de cision first given. "Then."

Willett's reference to "the defama tlon of Admiral Schley." caused Gard - f Maawni'hllHPttS. to Oblect. After a good deal of sparring the chelr ruled that the words were otiensive. House Puts Stop to Speech. By this time the House was In i fu- .. A Kn.-n th hahel of voices. Gardner was heard to make the point that a member having been found out of order in debate, no was no longer enw tied to the noor. Hepburn (Iowa) and Mann (Il linois), with copies of the rules in their hands, appealed for recognition. Hep burn insisted that Wlllett should take his seat. Mann in the meantime read some rules on the case. The chair directed Wlllett to take his seat, which he reluctantly did. Before the chair passed on the points of Mann and Hepburn, Chandler (Miss.) moved that Wlllett - be allowed to "proceed in order.. On that motion a vote was taken with the result of a party vote of 73 to 136, the House refusing further to hear the New York member. In vain Fitzgerald, of New York, sought to have the chair construe the rules so that Willett might proceed. Wlllett bad nearly concluded his re marks and he received the verdict tf the House with a smile. Northwestern People In Xew York. NEW YORK, Jan. IS. (Special.)

President Roosevelt upheld the beneflcence of white rule over subject races in an address at ths celebration of the Africa Diamond Jubilee of the Methodist Episcopal Church here this evening. The meeting was In support of a movement to raise .O0O In America towards the $1,000,000 fund which the' Methodiet Episcopal Church throughout the world is raising for African missions in celebration of the Jublloe. ' Benefit Of White Expansion. There Is one feature In tne expansion of the porks of white, or Kuropcan, blood during the rt four centuries which snoulo never ba lost s'.ioit of, especially by those who denounce such expansion on moral grounds. On the whole, tha movement has been frmug-ht with laatlnB benefit to most or the peoples already dwelling in the lancis over which trie expansion took place. or course any euck general statement as this must be understood with, the necessary reser vations. Human nature being what it is no movement lasting fur four centuries ana extending In one shape or another over the major part of the world could go on without cruel Injustices being done at certain p.aces and in certain times. OooMlonally. although not very frequently, a mild and kindly race has b-eo treated with wanton, brutal and ruthless Inhumanity by the white Intruders.

Assimilation of Indians. In America the Indians of the West Jndies were well nigh exterminates winiunir cruelly. The merely savage trioe. ooin in North and South America, who were very few In number, have much decreased or have vanished, and grave wrongs have often been committed against tnm as wen as uy ........ But all of the Indians who had attained to an even low grade of Industrial and social efficiency have remained In the land and have for the most part simply been assimilated .. ... V .v.- aMtmil..tion marking on the whole a very consi.terable rise In their condition. Taking Into account the lh"'ana of pure blood an.l tne mixea uionu the Indian element Is large, It Is undoubtedly true that the Indian population of America Is larger today than It was when Columbus discovered the continent, and sand on a far higher plane of happiness and efficiency. W hite Ideas Absorbed. Mr. Roosevelt went on to tell how tha native population has thriven under for eign rule in India, Java, Egypt, the Phll- . i ... onth A f .-I . u Turkpstan. ippmea. '0s ... - -. . -. while Mahdism half exterminated the I people of the Soudan and In Australia : the few savages died out because their , gmde of culture was so low that nothing could be done with them. He continued: Of course, the best that can happen to any people that has not already a high civilization of Its own ii to assimilate and profit by American or European Ideas, the ideas of clvllliatlon and Christianity.' wltli- i i..u. in nll.in enntrol: but such control. In spite of all its defects, is in a very large number ot cases the prerequisite condition to the moral and material advance of the peoples who dwell In the darker corners of th earth. Where the control is exercised brutally; where It Is made ne ef merely to exploit the natives, without regard to their physical or moral well being. It should be unsparingly criticised, and there should be resolute Insistence on amendment and reform But we must not. because of occasional wrongdoing, blind ourselves to the fact that on the whole the whit administrator and the Christian missionary have exercised a profound and wholesome tnfiueno for rood in savage re gions. British Rule in India. He illustrated his point by the con trast between the beneficent effects of French rule in Algiers with the anarchy reigning In Morocco. He continued: In India we encounter the most colossal example history affords of the successful administration by men of European blood of a thickly populated region in another continent. It is the greatest toat of the kind that has been performed since the breakup of the Roman Empire. Indeed, it Is a greater feat than was performed under the Roman Empire. There has been a far more resolute effort to do Justice, a far more resolute effort to secure fair treat ment for the bumble and the oppressed during the days of English rule In India than during any other period of recorded Indian history, tngianu aoes nut uraw penny from India for English purposes; she spends for India, the revenues raised In India, and they are spent for the benefit of the Indians themselves. Undoubtedly India is a less pleasant place than for merly for the heads of tyrannical states. Every wellwisher of mankind, every true friend of humanity, should realise that the part .ngiana niu picu ... a..u. una been to the immeasurable advantage of India, and for the honor and proflt of civilization, and should feel profound satis faction in the stability and permanence of English rule. I. hare seen many American missionaries who have come frem India, and I cannot overstate the terms ot admiration In which they speak of the English rule In India, and of the incalculable benefits it has conferred and is conferring upon tha natives.

No other country outside of Africa has so large a negro population: and, what is more, there are no other 10.000.000 of negroes In the world who own as much property and have as large a per cent who are intelligent, moral and thrifty.
