NO DESIRE FOR MORE TERRITORY
President Taft Said We Have all the
Land We Need in Which Work
Out Problems.
Baltimore, May 4. -The efforts of
President Taft toward establishing a
treaty of arbitration between the
United States and Great Britain fur
nished the text for most of the
speeches nt the Third National Peace
conference here.
Cardinal Gibbons and Hamilton
Holt, president of the conference, who
spoke before Taft, said that the nego
tiation of the proposed peace treaty
between the two English speaking na
tions would mark the greatest step
toward universal peace that the world
had ever seen.
"The people of the United States
have no desire for territorial ag
grandizement," President Taft said,
lie made no mention of Mexico, but
it was evident that he referred to sus
picions in connection with the army
maneuvers on the souther frontier.
“The motives of the Nation in lender
tug its good offices often have been
misinterpreted as moves toward ac
quiring more territory.
"The people as a whole would not
permit tho government. If it would at
tempt it, to take any steps toward ac
quiring foreign territory.
"Wo have had wars and we know
what they are. We know what re
sponsibilities they entail, the burdens
and losses and horrors and we would
have none of them. We have a mag
nificent domain of our own In which
we are attempting to work out and
show to the world the success of popu
lar government, ami we need no more
territory in which to show this."

rency. The old notes have only a

Just as the proper tools produ;e the best work, so does a respon

her strength. Therefore, she has a better grip on her work, is
more accurate, more rapid, gets a greater quantity of work done.
There is no “three-o'clock fatigue” where the Monarch is used,
and a few days’ trial will convince you of this fact.
