In war and in peace afike-your example will stand as the wisest of lessons to us 'and our chil dren and our children's children, i ? Army in Philippines. ; Just at this moment the armyof the United States, led by men who served among you in the great war. is carry ing to completion a small but peculiar ly trying and difficult war In which is involved not only, the honor of the flag but the triumph of - civilization over forces which stand for the black chaos of savagery "and barbarism.' The task haa not been as' difficult or as import ant as yours, but, oh, my comrade, the men In the uniform of the' United States.' who have for the last three years patiently I and uncomplainingly championed the American cause In the Philippine Islands, are your-younger brothers, your sons. They have shown themselves not unworthy of you, and hey are, entitled to( the support of all men who are proud of what you did. These younger comrades . of yours have fought under terrible difficulties and have received terrible provocation from a very cruel and very treacher ous enemy. : Under the strain of these provocations I deeply deplore X& say that some among them have so far forgotten themselves as to counsel and commit. In retaliation, acts of cruelty. The fact that for every guilty act com mitted by one of our: troops a hundred acta t tnr greater atrocity have been committed by the hostile natives upon our troops, or upan the peaceful and law abiding natives )who are friendly to us,, can not be held f to excuse : any wrongdoer on ; our- side. ; Determined and; unswerving effort tmust be made, and is being made, fo n nd put jevery Instance of barbarity on glhe part of our troops, to punish' thoe guilty of It, and to take. If possible, even strong er measures than have already been taken to-minimise or prevent the oc currence of all suchi Instances in the future.' :j "V":, : , , . - f - - ,,,( J -.... i , ' ;'- Lynching in the South. From time to time there occur In our country, to the deep and, lasting shame4 of our people, -lyncnmgs carnea on un der circumstances of inhumanjcruelty and barbarity a cruelty infinitely worse than any that, has ever been committed by our troops in the Philip pines; worse to the j victims, ana iar more brutalizing to those guilty or iu The men who fail to conuemn these lynchlngs, and yet clamor about what has been done In the Philippines, are indeed guilty of neglecting the beam in their own eye while taunting their brother about the mote In his. Under stand rile. These lynchings afford no excuse for failure to stop cruelty in the Philippines. Every h effort la being made, and will be made, to minimise the chances of cruelty ' occurring. But keep In mind that these cruel ties in the Philippines have 1een whol ly exceptional, and have been shame lessly eaggerated. i W deeply ana bitterly 'regret that such cruelties should have been, committed, no mat ter how-rarely, no matter under what provocation, by American troops. But they afford far less Justification for a general condemnation of our varmy than these. ; lynchings afford for the condemnation of the communities in which they have taken place. In each case it is well to condemn the deed, and it is well also to refrain from in cluding botn guilty, and innocent in the same sweeping ; condemnation. , In every community there are people who commit acts of well-nigh incon ceivable horror and j baseness. If we fix our eyes only upon these Individu als and upon their acts, and if we. for get the far more, numerous citjzen; of upright and honest life and blind our selves to their countless deeds of wis dom and justice and , phUaB4hro;pyn lt is- easy enough- to- condemn '.the com munity. There lis not a' etty lp this lahd which we could not thus cdndemrl if we fixed oureyes purely upon its police record and refused- to. look, at what t had accontpiisnea ior decency and Just tce -and- etarW3r'etitWsfi4s exactly the attitude which has been taken by too many men with referew to our. rhrmy ,In . the Philippines;"; . and it Is an i attitude both, absrrd and cru elly unjust. , - LincdlrTs Rules., . The rules of warfare whic"h have been' promulgated byNhe War Depart ment and accepted ' as the basis of conduct by our troops inthe field are the rules laid dowri by Abraham Llhi coin! when you, my hearers, were fight. Ing for the Union. These rules provide, of course, for the just severity neces sary in war.- The most destructive of all. forms of : cruelty would be show weakness where pternness Is de manded by iron need. ; But all' cruelty is forbidden, and all harshness beyond What is called for by. need. Our enem ies irt the Philippines have not mere ly violated every rule of war, but have made of these violations - their only method of carrying on the'war. We would have been justified by Abraham Lincoln's rule of j war In infinitely greater severity than has-been shown. The fact really is that our warfare In the Philippines has been carried on with. singular humanity. For every act of cruelty by pur men there have been Innumerable act- f of ' fo'rebearance, magnanimity and f generous kindness. These are the , qualities 1 which have characterized the war as a whole. The cruelties have been, wholly exceptional, on our part. . - . i: ' ; ' ' -! . Punishment fsr Guilty i The guilty are to be punished; but In punishing them, let those who sit at ease at home, .who talk -delicately and live in the soft'places of the earth, remember also to do them common justice. Let not the effortless and the un tempted rail over-much at strong men wto with blood and sweat face years sSt toil and,- days and nights of agony, .and at need lay down their lives in remote tropic jungles to bring the light of civilization" into the world's dark places. The warfare that has ex tended the boundaries of ' civilization at the expense of barbarism and av agery has been for centuries one o the most potent factors In the progress of humanity. Yet from Its Very nature it has always and everywhere been liable to dark abuses. It behooves us j to keep a .vigilant watch to prevent these abuses and to punish those who commit them; but If because of them we flinch from finish ing the task on which we have enter ed,' we show ourselves, cravens and weaklings, unworthy; of the sires from whose loins we sprang. There were abuses and to; spare in the Civil War. Tour false friends then called Grant a "butcher" and spoke of you who are listening to me ; as mercenaries, as "Lincoln's hirelings. Tour open foes as in the rsolution passed by the Confederate Congress in October, 1862 accused you. at " great length,' and with much1' particularity, of "contempt uous disregard of the: usages of- civi lized warfare; of subjecting women and children to ."banishment, impris onment, and death; of murder." of rapine, of . "outrages on women, of "lawless cruelty, of "perpetrating atrocities which would be. disgraceful to savages; .and Abraham Lincoln was singled out for especial attack because of his "spirit of barbarous ferocity." Verily,, these men who thus foully slandered you have their heirs today in these who traduce our armies in the PhllljPpines, who fix-their eyes on Individual deeds of wrong so Tteenly that at last they become blind to the great work of peace and freedom that has already ben accomplished. ' r Peace and Freedom Peace and freedom are there two better objects for which: a soldier car " fight? Well, these re i precisely the ' objects for which our.soldiers are fighting In the PhilippinesWben there is talk of the cruelties (committed . in the Philippines, Iremember always that by far the greater proportion of these cruelties have been committed TyN the insurgents a rain st their own people as well as against our soldiers and that not only the sures but the' only the progress of . the American arm. The Victories or tire American Army have, been really . effective means of putting a stop to cruelty .in the Phil ippines. Wherever these victories have been i complete and such to now the case throughout the greater part of vthe islands all cruelties hate ceased, and the native is secure lnfbis rfe, his .lib erty,, and ; his pursuit ,of - happiness. Where the Insurrection I st.IU smolders there is always a chance for cruelty to show ltself.; . " ' r ' Our soldiers conquer; and what Is the object for which they conquer? ', To es tablish a military Government? No, The laws we are now endeavoring to enact for the Government of the Phil ippines are to Increase the power and domain of the civil at the expense of the military authorities and to render even" more difficult than In the past the chance - of oppression. The military power is used to secure peace,, in-order that it may Itself be supplanted by the ClvirpGovemment. The progress' of the American-arms means the abolition of cruelty, the bringing of- pece, arid the rule .of law and order under tne Civil Govern.-nent. Other Nations have conquered to' create irresponsible rule. We cdnquer to bring just and responsi ble Civil Government to the conquered. But our armies do more. than bring peace, do more than "bring' order. 'They bring freedom'. Remember always, that the independence of 'a- jtribe or a -community may, and ? often does, have nothing whatever to doWlth the free dom ot the Individual in that tribe or community. There are, now- in Asia and Africa scores of despotic monarch ies, each of which is independent, and in tio one of which is there the slightest vestige, ojr freedom for,. the individual man.' Scant indeed is the gain to man kind : from the "independence" of a blood-stained tyrant who y rules " over abject and brutalized slaves. But "great is the gain to humanity which follows the steady though slow introduction of the orderly - liberty, the law-abiding freedom of the indivldualwhich ?-the only sure foundation upon, which na tional I independence can, be built. Wherever in the Philippines the Insur rection has been, definitely andflnally put down, there the individual Filipino already enjoys such freedom, such per sonal liberty, under our rule, as he couldnever even dream of under, the tfule of an "Independent Aguinaldian oligarchy. - ' - ' , . , 'Self -Government.

T. T. GEEB'S TRIBUTE TO THE DECEASED. ' ' PORTLAND, Or, May 30. Sylvester Perinoyer, Governor of Oregon froirf 1886 to 1&94. died suddenly this after4 noon at hla home here.' He had been in poor health for the past year. About S o'clock Mrs. Pennoyer, going into the library, found the Governor lying on the floor. She tried to arouse him. but discovered that he was dead. Sylvester Pennoyen the eighth Gov ernor of the elate of Oregon, was a New York farmer's son. He - was 'born' at Groton. Tompkins county. New York.July , 183L He was educated at Homer Academy; New ' York, ana Harva'rd law school, graduating from the latter Institution, kf the summer, of 1854. ; . In 1855 he- started , West, ar riving at - Portland, . Oregon, July 10th of the same year, and ' soon thereafter began school 'teaching, 'which profesv slon he followed for a number of years. In J862 he became' connected with 'the lumbtV business in . Portland, i with EX-GOV. r VMkf6K- tihuously connected ever since. Mr. Pennoyer first, exhibited his ablly as a political writer: in 1868, when he be came connected with the Oregon Ilr- ald as a. conrrlboting editor, and,fpr several years" he was known as one of the most trenchant political writers in the slate. In the winter of 1885 and 1886 Mr. Pftinoyer came prominently before the public by leading the anti Chinese movement of the labor organ ilatlons of Portland. Xy In the spring of 1888 he was nomln- aled bv the Democratic party -and elected Governor of the state of Ortr gon by 4000 majority, while the re malnder of the ticket - was ' elected by the" Republicans by 10.000 majority. He was re-elected In I90 by an in creased majority. As an executive' of ficer he was noted for his determlnel positions on masters of state and.jia tfonal importance, and in . general by his positive attitudes. During his first term as Governor he was brought prominently before the public In this stafte by three times vetoing measures- proposed by the Legislature: for the issuing of., nontaxable bonds for Port land's city- water works. During the same term be gained the reputation, of being the, laborers' friend by refusing to suppress rlotlhg railroad laborers of the Oregon Pacific railroad until their managers had paid the employe the wages which were due them. He was again brought prominently before the country in 1891, by his refusal to President Harrison at the State jlne.Nwhen the latter visited Oregon. Tie again gained state and even.na-. tional prominence by, his bitter attl tude toward President Grover Cleve land., ha vingadvlsed the President of the United States to "mind his own business when the President was at tempting to suggest a method of pro cedure which rt would be proper 'for the Oregon Executive to follow out lr relation to the mpprelhg of railroad strikes. At hat time hetelegraphed Prestdent Cleveland tne famous mes sage:. " ;"w:' T will attend to my business; let the President attend to his. At the close of his term of office Governor he retired to private life Portland. V In 1891 he was the' nomi nee of a number of political part If in Portland for mayor of the city, and wa elected to that office, which he filled until the close of his term, July 1, 1893, when W. S. Mason, who had been , elected June 4, ,188, succeeded Mayor Pennoyer who had not been a candidate for re-eleetlon. Gevornor Geer Speaks. : ; Gov. T. T.

He was a man of good impulses and of independent '.convictions.' to which he never hesltarted -to give the freest utterance. He bears the de stl notion of being the only man who ever served two full terms as Govern or of Oregon, and while many of us often differed from his views, on ques tions of public concern, yet I am sure he has passed away, bearing the good will and respect of all our people.
