and Champ Clark, speaker of the house
of representatives,-played star roles- in
a drama that might have been galled
"A ;- Study . in Contrasts" at hfstoric
Arlingtoa. cemetery tnis afternoon.
Whetheri by-- accident or design the
speaker's address waa m sharp con
tradiction to the remarks of the execu
tive. The latter declared for peace.
Clark's address breathed the spirit of
.conflict. The president said:
Comes for Inspiration.
"I have not come here today with a'
prepared address. The committee in
charge of the exercises of tho day has
"graciously excused me on the grounds
of public obligations from preparing an
address, but I will' not deny myself the
privilege of Joining with you in an
expression of gratitude and admiration
for the men who perished for the sake
of the Union. They do not need our
praise. . They do not need that our ad
miration should sustain them, There
s no immortality that is safer than
theirs. We come not for their sakes,
but for our own. in order that we may
drink at the same springs of inspira
tion from which they , themselves
drank.'
A , peculiar privilege came . to the
men who fought for -the .Union. There
is ho other civil war 'In history the
stings of which., were removed before
the men .who 'did.-the fighting passed
from the stage of life. So that we owe
them the spiritual re-establishmat of
the Union; f or they have not oly
reunited statsT'but they reunited the
spirits of men. That is their unique
achievement, unexampled anywhere
else in the annals of mankind, that the
very men - whom v they overcame . in
battle join in praise and gratitude that
the Union waa saved. There is some-l
thing peculiarly beautiful and pecul
iarly touching; about that.
"Whenever a vian who is still try
ing to .devote himself to the service
of the nation comes into a presence
like this, his spirit must be peculiarly
moved. A mandate is laid upon him
which seems to speak from the very
graves themselves .Those who serve
this nation, whether In peace or in
war, should serve the - nation without
thought of themselves.

war; you would not -desire me to do so.

tions were held yesterday afternoon in
the Lincoln high school auditorium.

ticipated in by all the military bodies

Memorial day observance.

first floor compact with Grand Army
and Indian war veterans in the middle
section. Spanish War Veterans and
Sons of Veterans to their left. To the

lives In the service of the nation were
given honor.

nature in which the women who sac
rificed husbands and sons in warfare
were lauded vraa delivered by Mrs.
Millie Berwick of the Women's Relief
Corps. The principal address of the
day was given by Hev. J. .1. Walters,
department chaplain of the Grand
Army of the Republic. Ills principal
theme was an appeal for the instilla
tion of national patriotism in the
young. """
Rev. W. T. Kerr, chaplain for the
west side services, offered the opening
prayer. The Lincoln high school or
chestra, under the direction of Freder
ick Chapman, gave two pleasing mil-
leal selections. W. M. Hendershott,
itabt''ih' command --Post 3, read
the general Memorial day orders. The
veteran quartet, composed of W. N.
Morse, Dr. J. Ii Hall, Professor Z. X.
Parvin and A. W. Mills, sangs the two
numbers, "Rest to the Brave" and
'The Little Green Tents" so well that
they were' forced to respond to an en
core. Elmer Lundberg, commander of
the Sons of- Veterans, read Lincoln's
Gettysburg address.
The veteran quartet also led inthe
assembly singing of "America" and
Chaplain Kerr offered the benediction.
Hundreds in Parade.
Nearly a thousand uniformed men
were in the parade.. Captain John T.
Moore, then Sergeant Crate with his
platoon of mounted police led the pro
cession, which formed on Fourth street
and the cross streets about the court
house. The parade moved down to the
business section, then back by Broad
way to the sohol auditorium.
Captain T. C. McDevitt was grand
marshal and his principal aide was
Lieutenant Henry McConnell of the
Third Oregon regiment. Colonel C. H.
Martin and staff followed the mounted
police with two battalions, six com
panies, of infantry of the Third.
A provisional and mixed troop fol
lowed "in command of Captain Hiram
U. Welch, consisting of field and coast
artillery batteries and the dismounted
troop A of the First Oregon cavalry.
Lieutenant Commander George F. Blair
had charge of the two naval militia
divisions.
Most of the G. A. R. men walked, al
though probably 60 were carried
through the parade in carriages. More
than 200 of the veterans were in the
parade.
The Indian War veterans were dis
tirguished by their red badges. They
followed the G. A. R. men. and came
ahead of the Sons of Veterans and the
Spanish-American War veterans in
uniform.
The Third Oregon Infantry band was
the first musical body in the parade.
Following it were the coast artillery,
naval reserve and Elks' band.

Aboard the Aquitania, by Radio, via

vice, London, May 80, 1:10 p. m. The
Aquitania, on her maiden voyage, ia
shoving her way through the Irish sea
with the sedateness and nonchalance
or an old married woman. There is
nothing except the saluting whUtles of
the steamers that pasa like pigmies to
suggest it is her maiden voyage, and
except for an occasional start on the
PL rt of the more nervous passengers
when siren answers siren, the tragedy
or Father Point might be a mere incl-
dent of many years ago.
London and New York met in the
gi ded restaurants for dinner. Just as
they do at Sherry's or at the Savoy,
while the band played merrily. The
passengers spent the remainder of the
evening lounging on the decks or be
coming better acquainted with the ves
sel's superb movements. It is expected
the Aquitania will land her passengers
in New' York early Friday.
The Aquitania is of 47,000 gross ton
riage. She has a length of 901 feet,
or about 90 feet less than that of the

S. F. Figures on
How to Buy U. E.
This Plans Under Consideration
to Buy Stock, to Buy the Property
or to Condemn Xt With Its Bonds,
San Francisco, May 30 City Attor
ney Percy V. Ixng is considering the
legality of three plans proposed for
buying the United Railroads, without
the necessity of floating a big city
bond issue, without entering into any
sort of a long term partnership or
agreement with the United Railroads,
and at the same time giving immedi
ate possession of the street rallroadH
to the city.
One of these plans Is to buy the
stock of the company, after due arbi
trations with the officers of the road.
The city would then handle the road
by virtue of this stock ownership.
No bonds would be issued to take
up any of those & the United Rail
roads, but these would be handMed aa
they became due.
Another plan is for 'the city to buy
the property outright, without taking
'the stock: but subject to the bond
issue.
A third plan is to condemn the
property under the provisions of the
law, and to buy it in subject to" the
bonds.
"I am not prepared to say what
ought to be done," said Mr! Long this
afternoon, "or whether any or all of
these plans are feasible or legaL Cer
tainly it would appear that the prop
erty of the United Railroads can be
acquired without the necessity of the
city's putting out a big bond Issue
and the retirement of all Of the pres
ent bonds. The entire subject must
be gone over and the people must
finally decide the question."
