TOUR DRAWING NEAR AN END President Makes Last EcLeduled Speech of Hii Trip at Danrille, Illinois; TRIBUTE TO LINCOLN AT SPRINGFIELD Large Crowds Greet Ilia at IlllaoU Potata la Spile of a Drlssllag Rata Which Fell All Dar Loii. DECATUR, 111., June l-Presldent Roose velt thia afternoon made the principal ad dresa at the dedication here of Mllllken unlveralty before 10,000 persons. The presl dent'a car waa run te the university campus. He choolt hands with James Mil liken, who has given tt&O.OOO to the uni versity and during his speech said to the school's benefactor: Mr. Mllllken. I feel that as an American It Is proper for me to express to you and to those like you, obligations that good Americana feel for what you and they ,iave dune In the university and In other edu cational Institution throughout the land. At the Wabash railroad station the presi dent addressed another crowd made up largely of railroad and factory employes. He thanked the railroad men for the way he had been cared for on his trip. The president's train left for Danville amid the tooting of hundreds of whistles In the railroad yards. Last Speech of Trip. DANVILLE. 111., June 4. President Roosevelt delivered the last scheduled speech of tils long trip here, the home of Congressman Cannon, this evening. Not withstanding the Inclement weather he was greeted by a large crowd. The stay here was for but twenty minutes and at 40 o'clock his train left for Indianapolis, from whence It will go direct to 'Wash ington. r The last day of the trip was In a most - rainy one. Stops were made only at Lin coln, Springfield. Decatur and Danville. The principal speech of the day was de livered, at Springfield In the 'new armory building. The president this evening was the guest at dinner of the members of his party. The meal waa served In the dining car OUsey, the guests beside the president being Sec retary of Agriculture Wilson, Secretary to the President Loeb, Senators Beverldge . and Fairbanks of Indiana, Surgeon General of the Navy Rlxey, and Assistant Secretary to the Prealdent Barnes. President Roosevelt was greeted here by 6,000 people who had stood for an hour In a drlzillng rain to give him a cordial wel come. The train reached here at 6:20 and the prealdent, accompanied by Congress man Cannon and Senator Cullom, was Im mediately conducted to a atand erected alongside the railroad tracks. He waa in troduced by Congressman Cannon. Presi dent Roosevelt said It was a great pleasure for him to meet the people of Danville and a double pleasure to behold the next speaker of tha next house of representa tives. Eipl of Fidelity. I wish to aay now that the way In which Mr. Cannon was chosen (for he has been chosen) speaker of the house. Is well for American public life. Mr. Cannon haa played, during his long services in congress tha most useful part that any member In congress can play and yet pre-eminently one which off-handed would be said to mediate against the chance of , his further - advance ment. For Mr. Cannon has had to protect , tha Interest of the nation, the Interests of the people as a whole from the Improper demands of localities and individuals and If Mr. Cannon had been thinking of bis own future merely he would have been warranted, in supposing that a service to the public at large, at the expense of party Interests, would have been forgotten by the public and remembered only by the In dividual to be favorable affected. More than that, Mr. Cannon not only had to put a stop to things that were Improper, but to set his foot sgalnst the expenditure of money which would have been right enough In Itself, except that we cannot afford it, so that he Incurred the displeasure not . merely of the men who asked what was most Improper, but all those who asked .i what we all should have been glad to give . If the purse of the nation were large enough. And It reflects not merely upon him. but upon our people In public life that these denials of his should prove not an obstacle to his advancement, but the means of making him. without a canvass upon his psrt. the choice of all parties In congress for the second highest position In the ac tive apolitical service of the nation. Tha presidential party departed at S:40 for Indianapolis. . Dedicates New Arsenal. SPRINGFIELD, 111., June 4. President Roosevelt spent four hours In Springfield today, during which time he dedicated the new state arsenal and armory, erected at a. cost of 1SO,000, donated by cltlsens of Springfield, and addressed the Llncoln-Mo-Kinley Veterans' association at tha Lin coln monument. The president's train arrived over the Chl clago at Alton and waa greeted with the presidential salute. Business houses and residences were elaborately decorated with flags. From tha station to the armory the presi dent waa escorted through throngs of cheer ing people, with Governor Yates, county and city officers, the reception committee, two troops of the First Cavalry, Illinois National Guard, the Fifth Infantry, Illinois National Guard. On each side of Capitol avenue, between Sixth street and the state bouse, were massed 1,000 school children, who waved flags aa tha procession passed. Among the thousands who heard tha president speak was Company H of the Eighth regiment (colored), Illinois National Guard. After greeting the veterans' as sociation the president said: It seems to me eminently fitting that the fuard around the tomb of Lincoln should e composed of colored soldiers. It was my own good fortune at Santiago to serve beside colored troops. A mun who Is guod enough to shed his blood for his country Is good enough to be given a auuure deal afterwards. More than that no man Is entitled to and less than that no mun shall have. The president's party then drove back to the monument where the dedication exer cises took place In the great hall. Senator Cullom, Introducing the president, called for three cheers, which were given standing. The president said In part: Tribal Lincoln. Senator Cullom. Governor Tatea and you. my tallow Americana, men and women of the great stale of Illinois: It is a deep plesaure for nia to have the chance of speaking to you today; and above all, to (peak to you in Lincoln's home, after hav ing driven out to see Lincoln's tomb, snd driven out in company with the man who accompanied tha body of the great mar tyred president on its last Journey to lis last resting place, your senior senator, Senator Cuilom (applause). I have met In Illinois many men who knew Lincoln personally; and at every place that I have stopped I have seen men who fought In the army when Lincoln railed the country to aims. All of us now pay our tribute to the greatness that Is MB- rSara, Pale and Spewtttns- Bottled Only t the Brwery ha SC Loufcv Ordar rraat H.

(Applause) It is a good thing for us by speecn to psy homage to the memory of Abraham Lincoln; but It is sn In finitely I etier thing tor us In our lives to pay homage to his memory In the only way In which that homage can be effec tively paid, by seeing to it that this re- fiublic's life soclsl snd political, civic ind ndustrlal, fa shaped now In sccordance with the Ideals which Lincoln preached and which all his lite long he practiced. It'll eers.) The greatness of our forefathers must serve not as an excuse to us for falling to do our duty in return, but as a spur to make us feel that we are doubly recreant recreant to them as well ss recreant to ourselves it we fall to rise level wlta the standard they set. To the men of Lincoln's generstlon the supreme gfft was given to be true to themselves In a great national crisis. Theirs wsa not the life of ease and life of comfort. For their good fortune they were given a duty hard to perform, but supremely well worth performing. I envy no man a life of ease, and 1 feel little but contempt for him If his only Idesl Is to lead a life of rase. We should reserve our feeling of admiration for the men who have difficult work to do, but work emin ently worth doing and who do It well. (Ap plause.) Same Old Problems. The problems that face us aa a nation today are the problems which Lincoln and the men of his generation had to face. Dif ferent methods must be devised for solv ing them; but the spirit in which we ap proach them must be the same as the spirit with which Lincoln and his fellows in council, his followers In war, approached these problems, or else this nation will fall. It will not fall. It will succeed, because we still have In us the spirit of the men of '61. (Applause.) We are a nation with a domain such as no republic In the history of the world has even approached. For-weal-;or woe we are a great power, a great nation. We cannot escape playing the part of a great nation. We can play It ill or well; but play It we must. A smsll nation can play a small part; not a great nation. Upon the auccess of the experiment of free gov ernment conducted In i spirit of orderly liberty here on this continent depends not only the welfare of this nation, but de pends the future of free government In the entire world (applause). It behooves us not only to exult in our privileges, but soberly to real lie our responsibilities. Hitherto republics have failed, the re publics of antiquity went down; the re publlca of middle sges went down, al though tried on a much smaller scale than our, and although In consequence the ex periment would have seemed hazardous, fundamentally the cause of the failure of those republics could be found in the fact that ultimately each Intended to become not a member of the whole people doing Justice to each member of the republic, but to a Class; sometimes the control or the government slipped into the hands of an oligarchy; sometimes It slipped Into the hands of a mob. In either case the result was the same; it was exactly as the ma terial for the abiding welfare of the re public were turned Into a government in which the few oppressed the many, or it was turned Into a government In which the many plundered the few. Either form of perversion of the governmental prin ciple spelled death and ruin to the coun try.

This government will succeed hec.io. it must snd shall be kept true to the prin ciples for which the men of Lincoln's gen eration fought (applause).

At the conclusion of the president's speech luncheon was served at the executive man sion to the presidential party, after which the visitors departed for Decatur, 111. LINCOLN, III., June 4. Upon the arrivel of President Roosevelt here no little con cern waa manifested by secret service men attending him over tha discovery yesterday of dynamite near the railroad tracks over which the train passed. No plot, however, was discovered by the police authorities. While President Roosevelt was perfectly aafa and waa giving a rousing welcome. the officers closely guarded him and the train. Mora of an Expansionist. INDIANAPOLIS, June 4.-Tha presiden tial special arrived in Indlanapolla at f:05 tonight. A drixzllng rain did not prevent t.000 people from gathering immediately In front of the Union atatlon to greet him. The Marlon club, headed by Mayor Book- waiter, acted as the formal reception com mittee. Governor Durban was In the ahed awaiting tha president. Senators Fair banks and Beverldge were on the train. The factory whistles and locomotives blew a greeting and there waa a continuous burst of enthusiastic cheers when the president appeared. During the speech of the presi dent which followed, some one from an overlooking window ahouted: "Tha Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire men ia for Roosevelt." Tha president smiled and replied: "I know it. I feel that Indiana is solid for roe." Mayor Bookwalter Introduced President Roosevelt, who said: I have been from the Atlantic to tha Pacific and now well nigh back to tha Atlantic and the thing that has struck me more than all else wherever I have been Is the fundamental unity of our people. I went on my trip a pretty good expansionist. I come back a better one because I have seen our people on the Atlantic coast, in the Mississippi Valley. In the great plains snd among the Rockies and on the Pacific coast. I fall to see how any man can look at them and not see that Intvltably they belong to the expanding and not to the stationary races of mankind. Our nation must play a great part In the world. We cannot help it. All that wa can decide Is whether we will play that part well or ill and I know you too well, my fellow coun trymen, to doubt what your decision in that case will be. This people has a mighty de.tlny before It and it can work out that destiny only a It has worked out lis destiny In the past. There will be no radi cal or extreme action by our nation. We are for all out spirit of progress essentially a conservative people We believe In con servatism, but it is a conservatism not of timidity, not of mere stolidity. It la the conservatism of good serine. V'e do not In tend to be spurred Into rash action or to be frightened out of action that Is needed by the circumstances of the case. The results of the past five years have put us In a posi tion of dominence not only on this conti nent but In the pacific ocean. Our deatlnv entails upon us the acceptance of certain great responsibility. Exactly as our respect Is reserved foe the man In private life who does his duty, who noes noi snira worn, wno endeavors to And his account in doins a deed worth doing and doing It well, so nationally our resnect goes to the nation which seeks neither to Invite nor to avoid trouble, but to take It as It comes. If It Is an incident In working out Its mlahty career. Our people have ever ahown In their history that comtilnatlon -of energy and common sense which must be shown by every great masterful race.

Committee Fiiei on July 11 and Makes Apportionment of Delegates, COUNTY COMMITTEE TaKES NO ACTION Lack of (gaoram Does Rot Prevent Dlscassloa aa to Advisability of Holding- Convention Too Early. The republican Judicial committee for tha Fourth district met twice yesterday after ,noon in tha office of Chairman Baldriga and finally fixed the date and place of the convention for Saturday, July 11, in Wash ington hall at 2 o'clock. The representa tion in the convention will be 183 dele gates, or one for every 100 votes cast for McKlnley in 1900. Among the counties the following apportionment waa made; Douglaa. 141; Burt, 19; Sarpy, 17; Wash ington, 8. ' Lack of a quorum prevented the ex pected meeting of the republican county committee, there being only twenty-five out of the sixty-one members present, in cluding a goodly number of proxies. After considerable discussion as to whether tha Judicial convention should be early or late the members present adjourned to meet again, at 1 o'clock this afternoon, when they will try to arrange for prlmarlea to aelect delegates by direct vote to the Judicial and state conventions. F. A. Brogan, at yesterday's session, precipitated a division of opinion by de claring in favor of a late convention. He argued that witH the convention on June 27 aa the Judicial committee first proposed It, the people would not have sufficient op portunity to determine the fitness- of the candidates, and that they would take little Interest In the contest owing to the lack of other political racea. He also ad vocated giving the voters an opportunity to express their personal choice of can didates In some manner. Candidates Ask Early Convention. Chairman Baldrlge of the Judicial com mittee, who was present, said that all the avowed candidates had asked for an early convention In order that they may get away on usual summer vacations. He said he thought an early convention would keep Judicial politics apart from the county fight and would be a good thing on that score. "I want to proteat against the manner proposed for selecting delegates to the judicial convention," said Mr. Brogan. "The plan of sending delegates direct to the convention works abuse. The ward delegations are traded bark and forth and It amounts to a disgraceful swapping of ward strength. This Is likely to force unworthy candidates upon the party sim ply because they are able to Jump in and capture a ward delegation. The people are growing tired of being called upon to aup port men for the bench merely on account of party. This serious matter of select ing Judges should be handled carefully. I am Interested In this matter solely be cause I wish to see a strong Judicial ticket and I dislike to see undue haste." Mr. Brogan then raised the point of no quorum and the meeting waa adjourned. The county committee had prepared and had ready before it a resolution calling the Joint prlmarlea for June 26, apportioning the ninety-two delegatea allotted Douglas county to tha state convention as follows: Each ward In Omaha, six; south Omaha, eleven; each country precinct except Clon- tarf, two; Clontarf, one. The proposed division of the judicial delegatea In Doug las county la aa follows: Each ward in Omaha, nine; South Omaha, eighteen; each country precinct, S.

Thia decision waa reached at thia week's meeting of the club, which will be the laat until next fall.

Tha club now includes twenty-one active mem bers, and an effort will be made to interest tha other successful ceramic artists of tha city, who number nearly aa many more. The success of the club's exhibit at the Chicago fair proved aa Impetua to tha work of the entire state, and with their experience since then tha members feel that the St. Louis enterprise should be even mora successful.

While this will neces sitate additional oare on the part of those who would avoid the product of the sweat shop and other bad labor conditions, It Is also an encouragement to those who have worked to advance " the Influence of the league, for It proves that the demand for the league labeled gooda Is having its ef fect and haa become sufficiently strong to Induce those who cannot give guaranty of proper manufacturing conditions that the label lnsurea to devise an imitation to satisfy it.

JUDGE BAXTER SUGGESTS CONCILIATION Walters I'alon Lawyer Accepts the Courts' Suggestion, bat Attorney for Business Men's Associa tion Tarns It Down. The cs.se of the restaurant proprietors agalnat the members of the Omaha Wait era' union, which waa to nave been heard before the Judges of tho equity 'court In Judge Dickinson's room yesterday, haa been started all over again, and thia morn ing the case will go back to where It was the day the first restraining order was Issued. When the caae waa called for hearing It developed that John O. Yelser, who repre sented the Waiters' union and the officers thereof, did not represent the entire body of defendants, which Includes all of the em ployes of the restaurant proprietors who quit work May 1 and that no service had been had upon any of the defendants ex cept those represented by Mr. Yeiser. As these defendants had hot been served they could not be bound by any decision of the court In the case upon the hearing for permanent injunction. There was considerable talk over the matter before the attorneya for the plain tiffs finally gave notice that they would begin a new suit against all of the defend-. ants and see that each waa served before the next hearing. In thia discussion Judge Baxter auggested that "the attorneys for the waiters and for the restaurant pro prietors go Into executive session and reach some conclusion of law and fact, llnd some basis upon which the trouble could ba settled and have the entire strike settled by the approval of their action by their cllenta." Yelser Is WIIIIbk. Mr. Yelser accepted the suggestion for his clients and said that while he could not bind thorn In any settlement without their consent he believed that with Mr. Mahoney and himself a conclusion could be reached which would be approved by both of the partlea to the suit and the trouble would be ended. Mr. Mahoney did not take ao kindly to the auggeatlon. He said that up to that time there had been no indication thaf the attorneya could arrive at any agree ment" as to the law In the case; that hla clients were operating their business suc cessfully and did not desire any relations with the defendants In the case; that all they desired would be the protection of the court In transacting their business, giving to the defendanta auch lights aa they may have under the law and to have those rights determined he would at 2 o'clock file a petition, verified according to jaw, or supported by affidavits, asking for a tem porary reatralnlng order against ail oi tne defendants In the case. He said he would ask to have a date fixed for the hearing upon application for temporary Injunction and let the hearing for permanent Injunc tion came up In Its regular order before the court FL0T0 DOG AND PONY SHOW Excellent Performance Given Laat KlgM by This Big Aggre. gatloa.

To ths Editor of The Bee Dear Sir: I note In this morning's Issue of your p.iper an article headed "Floods Send Meat Higher," and assign aa a reason the advance In the price of live stock caused by very light receipts at all markets. Now nothing can be farther from the fact than this statement. The re ceipts at all the markets except Kansas City have increased In the last three dr.ys, and a aharp decline Is the result. One packer says there was a shortage of both hogs and cattle. I cannot understand why the market should decline under such con ditions. This Is a mere subterfuge to gull the unsuspecting consumers to charge them an extortionate price when there la absolutely no grounda or reaaon for doing ao. There la a decline of 20 cents in hogs today,, cattle Is 15 cents lower. Would like to see whether or not the packers will mark the price down on dressed meat cor respondingly. READER.
