HANNA IS ALONE
'Ohio-Is for the Indorsement
of Roosevelt
'EDITORS ARE STRONG FOR HIM
CroiTesor Favors a. Declaration for
the President, as Silence "Wo aid
BTlea to Mean That Hutaa
Is a Candidate.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, May 22. "Various reports are re
ceived here from Ohio concerning the con
test between the Hanna and Foraker fac
tions over the Indorsement of Roosevelt
In the coming state convention. The To
ledo Blade has published answers to an
Inquiry from 50 Republican editors of the
6tate, and all but six are in favor of In
dorsing the President as the candidate for
next year. Hanna is quoted In an Inter
view as saying he is opposed to the in
dorsement, and will continue to oppose It
until some one shows a reason for this
year's convention doing next year's work.
Ho Is also quoted as saying of the Indorse
ment: "It Is not only unprecedented. It
Is absolutely ridiculous. President Roose
velt himself is opposed to It."
Many men have been Interviewed on the
subject. Charles Dougherty, of the state
.committee, who has not been In the Hanna
campaign, is in favor of the Indorsement,
and says it would mean that the Ohio
Republicans had faith In the President
Governor Nash says the vast majority
of Republicans are In favor of the Presi
dent, and It does not make any difference
whether he is Indorsed or not.
Representative Grosvenor thinks it
would be a wise thing to. Indorse Roose
velt, especially as the matter has been
brought up. and that If the indorsement
is not given, it will be taken to mean that
Hanna Is opposed to it, and may himself
appear as a candidate. Grosvenor adds
that if Hanna is a candidate. Ohio would
be for him, but if he Is not, he should not
be placed In an equivocal position as be
ing constructively against Roosevelt.
A number of other Republicans of more
or less prominence seem to think that the
matter of Indorsement should not have
been brought up at all, but that the dis
cussion of it his made It almost impera
tive to indorse the President. Senator
Hanna Is said to be very bitter against
Foraker for pushing the matter so vigor
ously. He was alleged to have said that
Foraker's purpose was to "smoke him
out," but this Hanna denied in another
interview.
CUBA SIGNS THE TREATY
Piatt Amendment Is Accepted in Its
Entirety.

The permanent treaty contains no pro
vision for its abrogation, and no ex
traneous conditions of any kind. It sim
ply Incorporates the entire Piatt amend
ment Into the form of a treaty. The
length of time consumed by the negotia
tions was principally due to the fact
that the Cuban Government desired to
include in the treaty various extraneous
conditions, especially one to the effect
that there should be no Intervention in
Cuban affairs by the United States, ex
cept through the Initiative of the Presi
dent of Cuba. All these conditions were
rejected.
Following is the text of the Tlatt

shall never enter Into any treaty or other
compact with any foreign power or pow
ers which will Impair or tend to Impair
the Independence of Cuba, nor In any

or powers to obtain by colonization or
for military or naval purposes or other
wise lodgment in or control over any
portion of said Island.
Second That said Government shall not
assume or contract any public debt, to
pay the interest upon which and to make
reasonable sinking fund provision for the
ultimate discharge of which the ordlnary
revenues of the island, after defraying
the current expenses of government, shall
bo Inadequate.
Third That the Government of Cuba
consents that the United States may ex
ercise the right to intervene for the
preservation of Cuban Independence, the
maintenance of a government adequate
for the protection of life, property and
Individual liberty and for discharging the
obligations with respect to Cuba imposed
by the Treaty of Paris on the United
States; now to be assumed and under
taken by the Government of Cuba.
Fourth That all acts of the United
States In Cuba during Its military occu
pation thereof aro ratified and validated,
and all lawful rights acquired thereunder
shall be maintained and protected.
Fifth That the Government of Cuba
will execute, and, so far as necessary,
extend the plans already devised, or
other plans to be mutually agreed upon,
for the sanitation of the cities of the
island, to the end that a recurrence of
epidemic and Infectious diseases may be
prevented, thereby assuring protection to
the people and commerce of Cuba, as
well as to the commerce of the Southern
ports of the United States and the people
residing therein.
Sixth That the Isle of Pines shall be
omitted from the proposed constitutional
boundaries of Cuba, the title thereto left
to future adjustment by treaty.
Seventh That to enable the United
States to maintain the Independence of
Cuba and to protect the people thereof,
as well as for its own defense, the Gov
ernment of Cuba will sell or lease to the
United States lands necessarv for coaling
or naval stations at certain specified
points, to be agreed upon with the Presi
dent of the United States.
Eighth That by way of' further assur
ance, the Government of Cuba will em

GREATER JiAVY A. XECESSITY.
President Holds Defense by Water
the Surest Guaranty of Pence.
TACOMA, May 22. President Roosevelt's
speech at Wright Park today was as fol
lows: "Mr. Mayor, and you, my fellow-citizens:
"It is the greatest pleasure to me
to have come this morning through the
Southwestern part of this great and beau
tiful state, and now to have seen your
beautiful city here on Puget Sound. (Ap
plause.) I wish to express my acknowl
edgments to the men of the Grand Army
and to my comrades of the Spanish War
for having come out to greet me. I also
wJsh to express a particular word of greet
ing to the delegates of the State Sunday
School Convention who have come here
today, and to say how glad I am to see
them. (Applause.)
"Pleased though I am to seo this mar
velous material prosperity In which the
State of Washington so abundantly re
joices, I am even more pleased to see the
evidences In every city through which I
pass of the resolute purpose of your peo
ple to build upon that material well-being
the higher life, without which prosperity
by Itself can havo no durable basis. (Ap
plause.) "I believe In your people In my people
because I believe they have In them
not only the power to win success
In actual affairs; to build up great
cities; to turn the wilderness Into a
smiling garden; to build commerce and
factories; but because I think that they
have also the power to raise a structuro
of citizenship based upon decency, upon
clean living and high thinking, upon the
virtues that make men good neighbors,
good husbands and fathers, and good citi
zens in their relation alike to tho state
and the Nation. (Applause.)
The Xavy the Main Prop.
"I wish to say Just one word this after
noon to you here in this City of Destiny,
in this city by the Sound, on our foreign
policy, and upon what must ever be the
main prop of any good foreign policy the
American Navy. In the old days, when
I first came to the Little Missouri, there
was a motto on the range "Never draw
unless you mean to shoot" That is a
pretty sound policy for a nation in for
eign affairs. (Applause.) Do not threat
en; do not bluster; do not Insult other
people, above all; but when you make up
your mind fhat the situation 13 such as
to require you to take a given position,
take It and keep It (applause), and have
It definitely understood that what you
say you are ready to make good. (Ap
plause.) I earnestly believe, and of course
I hope with all my heart, that there will
bo always peace between the United
States and other powers; but I wish that
peace to come to us not as a favor grant
ed in contempt, but to be the kind' of peace
that comes to the just man armed (ap
plause), the peace -that we can claim as
a matter of right Of course. It is the
merest truism to say that the best way
to keep peace is to show that you are not
afraid of war. If unjustly treated or
wronged. The events of the last few
years have shown that whether we wish
or not vre must play a great part in the
world. It Is not open to us to decide
whether we will play It All that Is
open to us to decide 13 whether we will
play it well; and I know my countrymen
too thoroughly to have any doubt as to
what their answer will be. (Applause.)
'You men of the great Civil War fought
to keep us a Nation; to make us really
one Nation. You. fought the greatest war
of the kind; and because you dared to
flght for four years, you have forever
purchased internal peace for the Repub-'
11c. (Applause.) Peace came to us for
all time because you dared to fight; and
the people who in your day called for
peace at any price, if they had had their
way, would have doomed us to genera
tions of struggle to generations of war.
So you, my own comrades of the Army,
and members of the Navy in 'S3 and the
years immediately following, by what you
did you save this Nation an assured posi
tion such as it could have acquired in no
other way; and you made it Infinitely less
liable (not more liable) that we should
ever, for Instance, have serious trouble
with any nation as to the Monroe Doc
trine. (Applause.)
"The events of that war, moreover,
showed that the United States had to be
a dominant power on the Pacific Ocean.
Our interests In the trade that goes across
that ocean are such, our positions of
command In reference to the ocean are
'such, that we must haye a decisive say In
Its future. We can only have that say
In peace by building up an adequate
Navy.
"If we fall to build an adequate Navy,
then somo time some great power, throw
ing off the restraint of International mqr
allty, will take some step against us, re
lying upon the weakness of our Navy:
and again I know my countrymen, and I
know that in such case they would flght
anyhow (applause); and therefore. In your
own interest I ask you to see to It that
you do not flgh with tho odds against
you; and above all that by preparing suf
ficiently you obviate all need whatever of
fighting at all.
The Sorest Guaranty of Peace.
"The surest guarantee of peace Is an
adequate navy. The best possible assur
ance against war Is an adequate navy.
I ask for a navy, primarily, because it is
the surest means of keeping peace: and
also because if war does come, surely
there can be no American who will toler
ate the Idea of Its having anything other
than a successful issue. (Applause.)
"In the fighting in Maxilla Bay and In
Santiago In 1S3S. In which such ships as
the Olympla and the Oregon named for
the Northwestern Coast and built on the
Pacific Ocean did their part, what con
trolled tho Issue of those fights what was
done at the moment? No, tho preparation
had been made In advance. The ships
that won the victories of Manila and San
tiago had been built years before, when
there was no thought, and could have
been no thought, of war with Spain. In
1SS3 we had a Navy composed of anti
quated war craft as unfit to go against
a modern battleship as tho galleys in
which Rome and Carthage fought for
mastery of the Mediterranean. If at that
time we had beep put In such a position
as were wero in 1S9S, bitter humiliation
would have been In store for us before
we eventually won, for, mind you, I think
we would have eventually won anyhow.
(Applause.) But I do not want to see a
generation of humiliation precede the
victory. We won because we prepared In
advance. We built the ships, established
the shipyards, created the armor plants,
created the gun foundries, and we made
ships which, in hulls, guns and engines,
need to fear no comparison with those of
any other power; and then put the men
on them and trained the men to do their
part In the battle.
The Shots That Count.
"Tho only shots that count are the shots
that hit I bellove In marksmanship
ashore and marksmanship afloat You
and I, my comrades, who fought ashore,
have a simpler task in learning how to
handle our weapons. Most of us know
something of tho rifle In advance: if we
did not, we had our time to Jearn It But
get on a big ship and any man who has
been on one knows it is a mighty com
plicated and delicate bit of machinery to
handle the guns In the gun turrets; to han
dle tho ship itself, needs tho training of a
specialist You can take the best men alive
and put them upon one of our modern
battleships, and unless they have had
some training the fact that they are the
best men alive will not help them. They
have got to have the training; and it was
because our officers end men were trained
well that when the crucial minute came
we not only won, but wo won at a mini
mum of loss to ourselves and a maximum
of damage to the enemy. (Applause.)
"It Is a pleasant thing to come together
and congratulate ourselves upon the great
deeds of the past, but that 13 not the way
to prepare for great deeds in the future.
In '61 the men of the Civil War won, not
by attending Fourth of July celebrations;
not by glorifying what had been done by
the men of the Revolution, but by turn
ing in themselves to try to distance the
deeds of the men of tho Revolution. That
13 how you did it and we of the younger
generation were helped by your example,
because we felt that what you had done
did not excuse us from effort, but re
quired us to try to rise level to the great
deeds of the past (Applause.)
People Must See That Work Goes On.
"I ask you, the sovereigns of the coun
try, for you are the sovereigns, and,
therefore, ,you are not to be excused If
you do not exercise your sovereignty
aright to see to It that the work of pre
paring the Navy In time of peace goes on.
The last Congress did its duty no more
than Its duty by going on with the build
ing up of the Navy, and see to It that
the next. Congress ends with a record as
good. If we stop, we go back. The only
way to do in building up the Navy Is to
keep on with It, to provide the ships, and
to provide that they shall be the best of
their kind, and then to provide for the
men on them, and for training them at
the great guns and In sea practice, which
shall make them In their turn the best of
their kind; and I believe I do not want to
boast but I believe that the American
fighting man. If you will give him a
chance, is at least as good as any one
else; that the man on our ships, in our
armies will do everything that we can
possibly demand of him If we give him
the chance, and because he la such a good
man. I ask that ypu give him the chance.
It has been a great and a real pleasure to
see you." (Cheers and applause.)

Can anyone suppose
that we would double
the necessary cost of
our brewing without a
vital reason?
Would we spend so much on
cleanliness ? Would we cool the
beer in plate glass rooms ? Would
we filter all the air that touches it ?
Would we age it for months ?
Would we sterilize every
' bottle ?
We do It to attain
absolute purity to avoid
the remotest possibility of germs
to make Schlitz Beer healthful.
Why accept a com
mon beer, brewed with
out any of these pre
cautions, when Schlitz
Beer costs no more ?
Your dealer may prefer to fur-
, nish a beer that pays a little more

PERMANENT
CURES
FOR:
MEN'S
Dr. W. Norton Davis
Our knowledge as to tho nature
and requirements of alt diseases pe
culiar to men Is thorough, for we
have devoted 21 years of tho best
years of our life to the .treatment
of these diseases alone. We have
put study and conscience Into all
our work. We have treated thou
sands of men, and have cured every
curable complication or condition.
Through tho knowledge gained by
our vast experience, which has been
unusual, both In quantity and qual
ity, we have been able to perfect
methods of treatment that mark a
distinct advance In the science of
medicine. We have cured, are cur
ing and shall continue to cure such
cases as no other reliable physi
cians will attempt to cure. There
fore, we especially Invite those who
havo been long afflicted to consult
us. In no Instance will we urge our
services, nor will we attempt a case
In which we feel the least doubt
as to our ability to effect a thor
ough and lasting cure.
"Weakness"
We not only cure "weakness"
promptly, but we employ the only
treatment that can possibly cure
this disorder permanently. It Is
mainly a system of local treatment
entirely original with us, and is
employed by no physician other
than ourselves, although many, ow
ing to our success, copy our adver
tisements and try to Imitate our
methods. So-called 'weakness" I3
but a symptom of local inflamma
tion or congestion, and a radical
cure Is merely a matter of restor
ing normal conditions throughout
the organic system, and this we ac
complish thoroughly and with ab
solute certainty.
Stricture
Our treatment for this disease re
moves the necessity for surgical op
erations, even in severe cases of
long standing. We do no cutting
nor dilating, and tho service we
offer you Is original and can only be
had at our ornce. Do not give up
hope because others have failed.
We will cure you, and the cure will
be a prompt and painless one. Ours
Is a home treatment that during
sleep dissolves and permanently re
moves every obstruction from the
urinary passages, subdues all In
flammation, relieves all Irritation or
congestion that may exist in the
kidneys or bladder, reduces enlarge
ment of the prostate gland, and re
stores health and tone to alL tho
organs affected by the disease.
Contracted Disorders
Improper treatment of contracted
diseases can easily bring loss of
power. An examination reveals this
very cause in a large portion of the
cases of weakness. Lingering in
flammation centering in the pros
tate gland is sure to result in dis
ordered functions, and the condition
will never be corrected until the In
flamed and swollen gland 13 re
stored to Its normal state. We
thoroughly cure every contracted
disease we treat. The remedies we
employ differ from those used by
others, and no other physicians
have as yet produced equally
prompt and thorough cures.
Varicocele
Every case of varicocele we treat
proves the superiority of our mild
and harmless method and the folly
of resorting to surgery. The treat
ment we employ Is distinctively our
own. and can be had of us only.
Thero is no pain or cutting, and the
patient need not be detained a sin
gle day from his business. Do not
submit to a knife or hospital ex
penses when a complete cure can
be had at home and without dan
ger. Treatment Different From
Others
We prescribe for each individual
case. Any benefit received from
treatment Is part of a permanent
cure, as we give no temporary
stimulants and our methods are all
original.
