Believes the Only Assurance of Peace Is In Being Well Prepared for War Quotes Washington's Farewell Address and Recalls- Insult to the United States From the Pirates of the Barbery Coast Address Before the University of Pennsylvania. Philadelphia. Pa., Feb. 22. Presi dent Roosevelt today delivered a strik ing address before the University of Pennsylvania, in this oity. He spoke in part as follows: As a nation we have had our full share of great men, but the two men of preeminent greatness who, as tht centuries go on, will surely loom above all others are Washington and Lincoln; and It is peculiarly fitting that their birthdays should be cele brated every year and the meaning of their lives brought home close to us. ' ' No other city in the country is so closely Identified with Washington's career as Philadelphia. He aerved here In 1776 in the Continental con gress. He was here as commander of the army at. the time of the bat tles of Brandy win and German town; and it was near here that with that army he faced the desolate winter at Valley Forge, the winter which mark ed the turning point of the revolu tionary war. Here he came again as president of the convention which framed the Constitution, and' then as president of the United States, and finally as lieutenant general of the army after he had retired from the presidency. One hundred and eight years ago, Just before he left the presidency, he issued his farewell address, and in it he laid down certain principles which he believed should guide the citizens of this republic for all time to come, his own words being, "which appear to me all-important to the perma nency of your felicity as a people." Practical Idealists. Washington, though in some ways an even greater man than Lincoln. did not have Lincoln's wonderful gift of expression that gift which makes certain speeches of the rail-splitter from Illinois read like the inspired utterances of the great Hebrew seers and prophets. But he had all of Lin coln's sound common sense, far-sightedness, and devotion to a lofty ideal. Like Lincoln, he sought after the no blest pbjects, and like Lincoln, he sought after them by thorough! practical methods These two great est Americans can fairly be called the best among the great men of the world, and greatest among the good men of the world. Each showed in actual practice his capacity to secure under our system the priceless union of Individual liberty with governmen tal strength. Each was as free from the vices of the tyrant as from the vices of the demagogue. To each the empty futility of the mere doctrinaire was as alien a the baseness of the merely self-seeking politician. Each was incapable alike of the wicked ness which seeks by force of arms to wrong others and of the no less crim inal weakness which falls to provide effectively against being wronged by others. Among Washington's maxims which he bequeathed to his countrymen were the two following: "Observe good faith and Justice toward all na tions," and "To be prepared for war Is the most effective means to pro mote peace." These two principles taken together should form the basis of our whole foreign policy. Neither Is sufficient taken by Itself. It Is not merely an Idle dream, but a most mischievous dream, to believe that mere refraining from wrongdoing will Insure us against being wronged. Yet on the other hand, a nation prepared for war Is a menace to mankind un less the national purpose Is to treat other nations with good faith and Justice. In any community it Is nelth er the conscientious man who is i craven at heart, nor yet the bold and strong man without the moral sense, who is of real use to the community; It Is the man who to strength and courage adds a realising sense of the moral obligation resting upon him, the man who has not only the desire but the power to do his full duty by his neighbor and by the state. So, in the world at large, the nation which Is of use In the progress of mankind Is that nation which com bines strength of character, force of character, and Insistence upon Its own rights, with a full acknowledge ment of its own duties toward others. Just at present the best way in which we can show that our loyalty to the teachings of Washington is a loyalty of the heart and not of the lips only, Is to see to It that the work of build ing up our navy goes steadily on. and that at the same time our stand for International righteousness Is clear and emphatic. Necessity for tlie Navy. Never since the beginning of our country's history has the navy been used in unjust war. Never has It failed to render great and sometimes vital service to the republic. It has not been too strong for our good, though often not strong enough to do all the good it should have done, Our possession of the Philippines, our Interest in the trade of the Ori ent, our building the Isthmian canal, our Insistence upon the Monroe doc- trine, all demand that our navy shall be of adequate size and for its size of unsurpassed efficiency. If It is strong enough I believe it will mini' mlze the chance of our being drawn Into foreign war. If we let It nrs , down it Is as certain as the day that sooner or later vi shall haHe t . choose between a probably disastrous V foreign war or a peace kept on terms that Imply national humiliation. Our navy la the surest guaranty of peace and the cheapest Insurance against war, and those who, In whatever ca pacity, have helped to build It up during the past 20 years have been in good faith observing and living up to one of the most Important of the principles which Washington laid down for the guidance of his coun trymen. Nor was Washington the only one of our great presidents who showed far-sighted partrlotlsm by support of the navy. When Andrew Jackson was In congress he voted for . the first warships we ever built as part ot our regular navy; and lis , voted against the grant ot money to pay our humiliating Tribute to the Pirates of the Barbary States. Old Hickory was a patriot through and through, and there was not an ounes of timidity In his nature, and of course he felt only Indignant eon tempt for a policy which purchased an Ignoble peace by cowardice Instead of exacting a Just peaoe by showing we were as little willing to submit to as to Inflict aggression. Had a ma jority of Jackson's colleagues and successors felt as he did about the . navy, had it been built up Instead of being brought to a standstill, It would probably never have been necessary to fight the war ot 1812. Fire at Long Creek. At about noon last Monday aa alarm of fire was rung, when the Oliver residence, occupied by JV A, - Moore and family, was seen to be on ' fire at the peak of the steep roof. around the stovepipe hole. The tire gradually worked Its way downward 1 and burned the building to the ground despite the efforts made to extinguish It. Unfortunately the town pump was frozen up, and again the water works 1 failed to save the residence because the pump was not In working order. Almost everything was saved from the building, even the doors and win dows on the ground floor being taken out. The loss is estimated at $1(00, al though the building cost a great deal more than that amount when Nick Oliver, Its owner, built It. Long Creek Ranger. J Grave Trouble Foreseen. , ' It needs but little foresight to tell, that when your stomach and liver are badly affected, grave trouble is ahead unless you take the proper medicine -for your disease, as Mrs. John A. Young, of Clay, N. Y., did. She says: "I had neuralgia of the liver and stomach, my heart was weakened and I could not eat. I was very bad for a long time, but In Electric Bitters I found Just what I needed, for they quickly relieved and cured me." Best medicine for weak women.
