The only exception to this determination will-be, in case of a completed treaty. Tts due to a taoit understanding 'between the two governments entered into before the election of Washington as a meeting place was decided upon. Russia is msnife ting a disposition to take the public into fall confidence, hoping bv this connection that the rnblio opiniou will force the Japanese to modify their terms. On the other hand Japan la disposed to surround ROOSEVELT MAKES STRONG ADDRESS AT GliATAQUA TO A VERY LARGE GROWD to be made to Rossis if lasting peace is io be o'oiaiued.

After breakfast tbe party was driven to the enterance of the auditorium where the President delivered one of bis strongest ad dresses, for manv months, of which the following is a part. Today I wish to speak to you on one feature of oar uatioual foreign policy and one feature of oar national domes tic policy. Tbe Monroe Doctrine is not a part of international law. Hut It is tbe fundamental , feature of our entire foreign policy so tar as the Western Hemisphere is concerned, and it has mo and more been meeting with vuuKg uMua oi iuis neinispnere. i willingness to show that we not ' only H O Brown, who is In tbe county all awaitinir the action of tbe Ootober term of circuit court, made an attempt to break oat of Jail last evening and If he bad been unmolested lor a lew hours more, would have succeeded. There are eight men at present in tbe cells and when deputy sheriff Tom Johnson yesterday afternoon went in to lock them op for tbe night, be made the usual rounds to see if they were all in their accustomed places Brown and Mcbride occupy tbe same quarters. McBride stepped inside from tbe cor ridor to be locked op and Tom thought be saw Brown lying on the bank as had been his custom for tbe past sev eral days, (the why cf it ia now easy 4- Kut' vh.k mam annnoead to be Brown was a dummy, msde up of recognition abroad.

He staffed his over alls with bedding, his shoes were in tbe proper pla e and in fact the entire makeup was such as to deceive anyone. However Brown at this time was biding behind that portion of the jail which is enclosed and tbe rear Is not visible from the front. . Along about eitiht o'clock in tbe aveninir a) r. Johnson had oocaslon to return to tbe office and upon meeting the diputy sheriff of Wallowa county, invited him to accompany him, and after showing him the new court house took him in to see the jail and In walking around the jail, be stepped on tome loose plaster, whloh exolted nis suspicion and he lighted a match and saw that three bricks bad been re moved He was not long In making an exsmination and Brown was not In his cell uoither did any of bis com- nnnlnna know here bt WBS. but 10 S very few seconds he was discovered on top of tbe steel jail and placed on tbe inBide.

It Is out of ths question to claim a right and yet shirk the responsibility for exeroislng that right. When we announce a doUov snob as ths Monroe Doctrine we thereby commit ourselves to accepting the consequences of the policy, and these consequences from' time to time alter. Lit us look for a moment at what the Monroe Doctrine really Is. It for bids the territorial encroachment of non- American powers on Amtrloan soil. Its purpose Is partly to secure this Nation against seeing great mili tary powers obtain new footholds la the Western Hemisphere, and. partly to secure to oar fellow republics south of us the chance to develope along their own Hoes without being oppress ed or conquered by non-American nowera. As we have srown more and more powerful our advocaoy of this doctrine has been received with more and more respect: but what has tended most to give the rtoctiice standing msan what we say and are preparea to back it up, bat that we mean to re- oognlze our ohllsatlons to foreige peonlea do less than ta insist upon our own rights. We can not permanently adhere to the Monroe Doctrine unless we succeed in making it evident in the first place that wa do not intend to treat it ia any suape or way as an excuse tor ag grandizement on our pari at the ex pense bl the republics to the south ot oi; seoond, that we do not intend to permit it to be used by any o! these republics as a shield to protect that republic from tbe consequences of its own misdeeds against foreign nsiions; third, that inasmuch as by this doc trine we prevent other nations from Interfering on this side of tbe water, we shall ourselves in good faith try to help those of our sister republics, whiob need such help, upward toward peace and order.
