AMERICAN POLICY
President Roosevelt, in His
Gov. Taft's Work and
Fargo, April 7. President Roose
velt made an address here In the
opera house Immediately after break
fasting. For the first time ho donned
his western slouch hat. Hundreds
faled to gain admittance. Leaving
the opera house he addressed an over
flow meeting from the balcony of the
Waldorf hotel.
He spoke in part as follows: It is
a good tiling to look back upon what
has been said and compare It with
the record of what has actually been
done in the Philippines. If promises
are violated, if plighted word is not
kept, then those "who have failed In
their duty should be held up to repro
ballon. If on the other hand, the pronv
ifes have betn substantially imido
good; if the aclilevment has kept
pace and more than kept pace with
the prophecy, then they who made
tho one are responsible for the other
are entitled of just right to claim the
credit which attaches to those who
serve the nation well. This credit I
claim for tho men who have managcil
so admirably the military and tho
civil affairs of the Philippine Islands,
and lor those other men who have so
heartily backed them In congress,
and without whose aid and support
cot one thing could have been accom
plished. An Honest Administration.
In Governor Taft and his associ
ates we sent to the Filipinos as up
right, as conscientious, and as able
a group of administrators as ever any
country has been blessed with having.
With them and under them we have
associated the best men among the
Filipinos, so that the great majority of
the officials. Including many of tho
highest rank, arc themselves native:
of the Islands. The administration is
incorruptlbly honest; Justice is as
jealously safeguarded as hero at
home. The government Is conducted
purely in tho Interests of the people
of the Islands; they are protected In
their religious and civil rights; they
have been given an excellent and well
administered school system and each
of them now enjoys rights to "life,
liberty, and the pursuit ot happiness"
such as wero never beforo known in
all the Iflstory of the islands.
Important Legislation.
Tho congress which has Just ad
journed has passed legislation of
high Importance and great wisdom In
the interests of tho Filipino people.
First and foremost, they conferred
upon them by law the present admir
able civil government; in addition,
they gave them an excellent curren

Address at Fargo, N, D, Lauds
the New Army Bill.
cy; they passed n measure allowing
the organization of a native constnb
ulnry; and they provided, In tho in
terests of tho islands, for a reduction
of 25 per cent in the tariff on Filipino
articles brought to tills country. I
nsked that a still further reduction
should be made. It wns not granted
by the last congress, but I think thnt
In some shnpc it will bo granted by
the next. And even without It, the
record of legislation In the Interest
of the Filipinos is one with which wo
have a right to feel satisfaction.
Ucmember always that In the Phil
Ipplnes the American government has
tried and Is trying to carry out ex
actly what the great genius and most
reverend patriot ever known In tho
Philippine Islands Joso Itlzal stead
fastly advocated. This man, shortly
before his death. In a mcssngo to his
countrymen, under date of December
1G, 189C. condemned unsparingly tli
Insurrection of Agulnnldo. tcrmlnnt
ed Just beforo our navy appeared in
on the scene, and pointed out the path
his people should follow to liberty,
and enngnienment.
While we have been doing these
great and beneficent works In the
Islands, we have yet been steadlb
reducing the cost at which they are
done. The Inst congress repealed the
law for the war taxes, and the war
department has reduced the army
from the maximum number of 100,000
allowed under tho law, to very nenrly
tno minimum of eo.ouo.
New Militia Law.
Moreover, the last congress enact
ed some admlrnblc legislation affect
ing tho army, passing first of all tho
militia bill and then thn bill to era
ate a general Btaff. The militia bill
represents the realization of a reform
which had been championed Inoffect
lvely by Washington, and had been
fruitlessly agitated over sinco. At
last we have taken from tho statute
Looks tho obsolete militia law of the
revolutlonaty days and havo provld
ed for efficient aid to tho national
guard of the states. I believe that
no other great country has such fine
natural material for volunteer sold
ierH as we have, and it is tho obvious
duty of tho nation and of the states
to make such provision ns will enable
this volunteer soldiery to bo orgnnlz
ed with nil possible rapidity and ef
ficiency In time of war; and, further
more, to help In every way tho na
tional guard In tlmo of peace. The
militia law enacted by the congresR
marks tho first long step ever taken
in this direction by the national gov
ernment.

of scarlet fever on tho north side In
tho famlllJs of Frank Nenglo. J, F.
Robinson, 3. P. Cloulil ami Samuel

nt this writing, nnd these same child
ten are known to have frequented thu
