Patriotic Service Wns tlie Theme of
the President General and Mrs.
"Wright Receive Evidences of
Esteem of Townspeople.
MEMPHIS, Term., Nov. 19. Although
the festivities of the day celebrated the
home-coming of General Luke E. "Wright,
Vlce-Governor of the Philippines, it is no
reflection upon the warmth of the -welcome
extended to him to say that Presi
dent Roosevelt's presence was the' over
shadowing feature of the day. Excursion
trains were run into the city, and a num
ber of distinguished people were present
to participate in the celebration. Among
' them were Governor Benton McMillln and
General Joseph Wheeler.
The parade was a long one. Immediate
ly after the President's arrival, there was
a parade through the streets to the Gay
oso Hotel, where a breakfast was ten
dered to the President and Governor
Wright by the ladies of Memphis.
In the afternoon the President attended
and sjjoke at two receptions given in
lionor of General Wright, one at the Audi
torium by the white citizens, and the oth
er in the hall in the :blackisectIon by the
colored people. There was a Colonial
Dames' tea at the Gayoso, and the festiv
ities closed tonight with an elaborate ban
quet at the Peabody, at -which the Pres
ident delivered a set speech. Including
'some brief remarks at the breakfast, the
President spoke four times ' during the
day. Altogether, It was a splendid trib
ute to the affection and esteem in which
General Wright is held at home. That
Mrs. Wright is also exceedingly popular
was made apparent y the applause which
greeted every reference to her. This was
especially marked at the Auditorium,
when the President referred ' to the f act
that his mother's brother served in the
Confederate Navy under her father; who
was Admiral Semmes.
Mayor Williams and Governor McMillln
both madeaddresses of welcome here, and
the audience was very enthusiastic when
General Wright delivered his response.
President's First Speech.
President Roosevelt had not Intended to
speak at this reception, but the assem
blage would not be denied. He said:
"I am glad. Indeed, to have the honor
pf coming today to your beautiful city, in
your beautiful state, to greet on behalf
of the whole country a Tennesseean who
has rendered high and honorable service
to the whole country a Tennesseean of
whom it can be said as It has been said of
the Greek hero:
"Much has he seen and lmdwn; cities of men.
Himself not least, but honored of them all;
And drunk delight of battle with his peers.
Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy.
"We are one people absolutely. The
memories of the Civil War are now her
itages of honor alike to those whose fa
thers wore the blue, and for those whose
fathers wore the gray. There Is one cu
rious and -not Inappropriate coincidence
today my mother's brother served under
Mrs. Wright's father in the Confederate
Navy. ,
"I come here today to greet General
Wright because it has been given to him
to render a peculiar service to the whole
country.
"A man can render service of the very
highest character at home, but, owing to
the very nature of our system of Govern
ment, he must. In his election, at least
represent particularly a given party. I
say In his election at least, for after elec
tion, if he is worth anything, he must ba
a representative of the whole country.
But there are certain branches of the pub
lic service, in which, if we are wise and
far-seeing, we will never allow partisan
politics to enter. (Applause.) There must
be no partisan politics in the Army or
Navy of the United States. All that con
cerns us to know about any General or
Admiral, about a mighty Captain by sea
or by land, is whether he Is a thoroughly
fit commander of men and loyal to the
country as a whole. In the same way. If
we are wise, if we care for our reputation
abroad. If we are sensitive of our honor
at home, we will allow no question of
partisan politics ever to enter Into the ad
ministration of the great commands which
came under our flag as a result of the
War with Spain.
"Hence, I say that General Wright, like
Governor Taft and his associates, has
rendered a peculiar service to every man
jealous of the honor of the American
name, in what he has done in administer
ing the Philippine Islands. For 14 months
it has been part of my business to see
how the work there was done. I am -not
speaking cxaggeratlngly; I am speaking
literally, telling the bare naked truth,
when I say that never during that time
has a question of party politics entered
into even the smallest action of those In
control of the Philippine Islands.
"Now, my fellow Americans, we cannot
afford to have the honor of the Nation ia
any wayffmirclied in connection with our
dependencies. We cannot afford to have
it smirched anywhere. If we wrong our
selves here at home we are to blame, and
we pay the penalty; but If we allow wrong
in connection with the Islands, not only
the Islands suffer, but an indelible stigma
of shame comes to the American name. I
am earnestly desirous that the adminis
tration of the Philippine Islands shall be
put and kept upon such a plane of
patriotic efficiency that no change will be
made In it owing to any change of party
here at home. Party feeling should, of
course, stop at the water line.''
Colored People's Reception.
The reception, tendered by the colored
people was remarkable. General Wrignt
earned their undying gratltudtS during the
two yellow fever epidemics 20 years ago
by remaining here when most of the
whites had fled, and seeing that the sick
were cared forf The hall Was packed,
galleries and pit, to suffocation, and the
whole spirit of the proceedings breathed
love and admiration for their friend. Gen
eral Wright, in addressing the colored au
dience, talked chiefly of their future, tell
ing. them of the difficult problems before
them. He said it would perhaps have
been better for both races had the change
from slavery to citizenship not come so
suddenly.
The President's reception, when he was
Introduced, beggars description. The col'-,
ored people became perfectly frantic,
jumped up and down in their enthusiasm
and yelled themselves hoarse. At the con
clusion of the President's remarks, tho.
entire audience of over 3000 united in
singing "God Be With Us Till We Meet
Again."
There were 200 guests at the banquet to
night, . the attendance being limited to
that number. Governor Lcngine, of Mis
sissippi, traveled from Jtfckson to be
present..
General Wright, responding to the ad
dress of welcome, slid the criticisms of
the' Army and Navy were unjust. There
might have been isolated cases of cruelty
deserving censure, but the cases were the
exception, not the rule. On the whole, he
said, the war was conducted In a most
humane manner. The alleged friction be
tween the civil and military government,
he said, had been greatly exaggerated.
The Filipinos, he said, could never govern
themselves without being taught to do
so. He thought Congress was going too
fast, rather than too slow. The Filipinos'
interests at present could be subserved
by a nonpartisan administration of their
affairs, such as existed tcday. He said
he himself did not know whether there
were more Republicans or Democrats in
the civil service In the Islands.
President Spolcc on "Our Country."
President Roosevelt received an ovation
when he was introduced, with the state
ment that he held the respect and ad
miration of the people of the country
without regard to political affiliations.'
The assemblage arose and for fully a
minute made the banquet hall ring with
cheers. He spoke as follows:
"It Is a real pleasure to come to thlrs
typical city of the Southern Mississippi
Valley -in order to greet a typical Ameri
can, a citizen of Tennessee, who de
serves honor not only from his state, but
from the entire country General Luke E.
Wright. We have a right to expect a
high standard of manhood from Tennes
see. It was one of the Unit two states
created west of the Alleghany Mountains,
and it was In this state that the first
self-governing ' community of American
freemen was established upon waters
flowing Into the Gulf. The pioneers of
Tennessee were among the earliest In
that great westward march which thrust
the Nation's border across the continent
to the Pacific, and It Is eminently fitting
that a son of Tennessee should now play
sb prominent a part in the further move
ment of expansion beyond the Pacific.
There have been Presidents of the United
States for but 113 years, and" during 16 of
those years Tennessecans sat in the
White House. Hardihood and daring, and
Iron resolution are of right to be ex
pected among the eons of a state which
nurtured Andrew Jackson and Sam Hous
ton; which sent Into the American Navy
one of the most famous fighting Admirals
of all time, Farragut.
"There is another reason why our coun
try should be glad that it was General
Wright - who rendered this service. Gen
eral Wright fought with distinguished
gallantry among gallant men who served
In the armies of the Confederacy during
the Civil War. We need no proof of the
completeness of our reunion as a people.
When the war with Spain came, the sons
of the men who wore the blue and the
sons cf the men who wore the gray vied
with one another In the effort to get Into
the ranks and face a foreign foe under
the old flag that had been carried In tri
umph under Winfield Scott and Zachary
Taylor and Andrew Jackson. It was my
own good fortune to serve under -that
fearless fighter, old Joe Wheeler, a mem
ory of which I shall always be proud. ,
But If we needed any proof of the unity
of our Interests It would ha'e been af
forded this very year by General Wright,
the ex-Confederate, in his administration
as acting Governor of the Philippine
Islands. Upon him during the months of
Summer rested a heavier burden of re
sponsibility than upon any other public
servant at that particular time; and not
the least of his titles to our regard Is the
way in which he was able to work on
terms of cordial good will with .the head
of the Army, himself a man who had hon
ored the blue uniform as Wright had
honored the gray.
"General Wright's work has been as
difficult as It was important. The events
of the last tour years have definitely de
cided that whether we wish to or not we
must hereafter play a great part in the
wcrld. We cannot escape facing the du
ties. We may shirk them If we are built
of poor stuff, 09 we may take hold and
do them If we are fit sons of our aires
but face them we must, whether we will
or not. Our duty in the Philippine
Islands has simply been one of the duties
that thus have come upon us. We are
there, and we can no more haul down our
flag and abandon the islands than we
coijld now abandon Alaska. Whether we
are glad cr sorry that events forced us to
go there ii aside from the question; the
point Is that, as the Inevitable result of
the war with Spain, we found ourselves
In the Philippines and that we could not
leave the Islands -without discredit. The
islanders were wholly unfit to govern
themselves, and if we had left there would
have been a brief period of bloody chaos,
and then some other nation would have
stepped in to do the .work, which we had
shirked. It cannot be too often repeated
that there was no question that the work
had to be done. All the question was.
whether we would do it well or 111; and,
thanks to the choice of men like Governor
Wright, It has been done- well. The first
and absolutely indispensable requisite was
order peace. The reign of lawless vio
lence, of resistance to legitimate -authority,
the reign or anarchy, could no more
be tolerated abroad than It could be tol
erated here In our own land.
"The American flag stands for orderly
liberty, and it stands for It abroad as it
stands for Jt at home. The task of our
soldiers was to restore and maintain or
der In the Island. The Army had the
task to do, and it did It well and thor
oughly. The fullest and heartiest praise
belongs to our soldiers who In the Philip
pines brought to a triumphant conclusion
a war, small Indeed compared To the
gigantic struggle In which the older men
whom I am addressing took part in the
early 'COs, but inconceivably harassing
and difficult, because it was waged amid
the pathless jungles of great tropic Island
and against a foe very elusive, very
treacherous, and often inconceivably cruel
both toward our men and toward the
great numbers of peace-loving Filipinos
who gladly welcomed our advent. The
soldiers Included both regulars and vol
unteers, men from the North, the South,
the East and the West, men from Penn
sylvania and from Tcnnensee, no less than
men from the Reeky Mountains and the
Pacific Slope--and to all alike we give
honor, for they acted as American sol
diers should. Cruelties were committed
hero and there. The fact that they were
committed under well-nigh intolerable
provocation affords no excuse for such
cruelties, nor can we admit as justifica
tion that they were retaliatory In kind.
Every effort has been made to detect and
punl(h the wrongdoers and. the wrong
doing itself has been completely stopped.
But these misdeeds were exceptional, and
their occurrence in no wise alters the' fact
that the American Army in the Philip
pines showed as a whole not only splendid
soldierly qualities but a high order of
humanity In dealing with their foes. A
hundred thousand of our troops went to
the Philippines. Among them were some
who offended against the right. Well,
are we altogether Immaculate at home? I
think not. I ask for no special considera
tion to be shown our f rlend3 and kinsmen,
our sons and brothers, who during three
years so well upheld the National honor
In the Philippines. I ask merely that we
do the same equal justice to the soldier
who went abroad and faced death and
lived hard aa we show to his fellow who
stayed at home and lived easily and in
comfort; and if we show that equarjus
tlce we will doff our hats to the man
who has put the whole country under ob
ligations by the victory he helped to win
In the Philippines.
"But the soldier's work ns a soldier was
not the larger part of what he did. When
once the outbreak was over in any place,
then began the work of establishing civil
administration. Here, too, the roldlerdId

Hon: J. H. Huling, ex-Member, of Con
gress from West Virginia, writes: "Pe
runa as a cure for catarrh and a tonic of
most serviceable excellence Is beyond all
question and has been proven by many
of my friends who have been benefited by
Its use." J. H. Huling, P. O. address,
Charleston, W. Va.
Consumption Often Caused by Ca
tarrh. Very few understand thoroughly that
consumption Is caused by catarrh. It
may have begun as catarrh of the head or
throat. It silently and ( gradually creeps
down the bronchial tub'es to the lungs.
After the catarrh has reached the lungs,
It sets up the disease known as consump
tion. Peruna Is not recommended as an in
fallible cure for consumption. It Is not
likely that any remedy will cure con
sumption after thefdisease is fully estab
lished, but Peruna will cure catarrh. It
will cure catarrh when It is located In
the throat. It will cure catarrh after It
has reached the lungs, if it Is not put
off too long.
Many cases of catarrh of the lungs
that have been pronounced consumption
and given up to die are cured by Peruna.
This happens every day. Like Mr! An

MAY DELAY CANAL TREATY
Differences to Be Settled Between
State Department nnd Colombia.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 19. Differences
have arisen between the State Depart
ment and the Colombian government
which may delay an agreement on the
terms of a canal treaty beyond the time
in which it had been expected to conclude
the treaty. Secretary Hay has furnished
the Colombian Minister, Mr. Concha, with
a memorandum setting forth the position
of this- Government, which was prepared
by the secretary after he had received
a similar memorandum from Mr. Concha
defining the Colombian position.
There are differences between the two
which must be reconciled before a treaty
can be drawn. It is apparent that Mr.
Hay has taken a firm position, and did not
adopt all the terms proposed by the Co
lombian government. It is assumed that
Mr. Concha will refer the points of vari
ance to his government, and- thus time
will be consumed, as it will take several
days to gct.a reply from Bogota to his in
quiries. To what exjtent the differences
may prove to be obstacles In the way or
a consummation of a treaty remains to be
seen.

HORSE 31 EAT DROPS IN PRICE.
Result of Enforcement of Berlin
3Iunlclpnl Ordinate.
BERLIN, Nov. 19. Quotations here' for
fat
horses for slaughtering have fallen
from ?37 50 and $49 to $25, and for fair to
middling lean from $25 to SIS 75 to S20. In
consequence of the exposure of the large !
quantities of horse meat sold as beef or
used for making sausage. Horseflesh has
been a regular article of food, but muni
cipal ordinances In most cities require
that It shall be sold as such. The extraor
dinary high price of meat, however, has
caused extensive evasions of the law, and
a great Increase in the sale of horse steaks
and soup bones as "beef. "While the Ger
man frontiers are closed to the importa
tion of live cattle, the prohibition does qot
apply to old, brokendown horses, which
are brought by shiploads from England.
and especially to Hamburg and Bremen, I
and are fattened for butchering. It is i
predicted that a sharper enforcement of
the horse meat ordinances is likely to re
sult In a slight Increase In the prices of
meat, and particularly of sausages.
