Those who are eldt.rly among us can recall
the long caravans of years ago as they
itlowly wended their way from the east.

In the furtlle valleys tributary to the Mis
souri, some on the taMe lands and among
the mountains of, the Rockies, while others
pushed on to tho golden Bands of Califor
nia, to the rich plains of the Columbia
lind even to the extreme limit of American
emigration, the forests . and prairies of
' Washington and Oregon and the rich heri

for man In proximity to Puget Found.
Those "prairie schooners" were as rich in
treasure as any argosies that ever crossed
the stormy deep; not In the gold and silver
' of the Incas and Montezumas; not in the
commerce of nations, but rather In the
sterling character of a manhood and wo
manhoodi which was able to make the des
ert blossom as the rose, to wrest from
mountain and plain the wealth which had
been secreted In the bosom of Mother
Earth for-centuries and to stamp the Im
press of their Integrity and their devotion
t.i lofty idcula of government upon the
generations to come. It Is to the pioneer
spirit of those honored emigrants of a
generation ago that is largely due the scene
which w here witness.
- , West Has Grown.
Time wis, and that net- very long. ago,
when the idea of any Important naval con
struction on the Pacific coast would have
been received with Incredulity, If not with
ridicule. But that was before the
Olympia performed Its gallant mission In
Manila bay or the Oregon mado Its historic
run through the waters of the southern Pa
cific and around Cape Horn, bearing with It
the hopes and prayers of a nation and ulti
mately Joining the squadron of Admiral
8ampson In Cuban waters, without mishap
and with added prestige to thu genlua of
American naval architecture and to the
consummate ability and devotion of Amer
ican marines. Klnce then It Is but logical
that our eyes should turn toward the Pa
clllc coast when the demand Is for the best
bottoms that float on wnicn, to carry me
defenses of the Stars and Stripes. The
whole nation now recognizes that In the
navy yards of this favored region Is to be
found the genius of conception and con
struction wnicn can produce the equal If
not the superior of anything known In the
annals of marine architecture. All the
states are the common beneficiaries of your
skill and energy along these lines, and Ne
braska considers Itself extremely fortunate
In being permitted to stand as sponsor for
the very acme of your efforts, the noble
battleship which Is now about to take It
.Baptismal plunge. . ..... ,
We are distinctively a nation of peace.
V'Whlle.ltJf true t hut,. in the progress of our
evolution we have. repeatedly passed
through fhe crucial test of war, It Is also
true that every struggle haa been waged In
behalf of human liberty and .with the fond
hope that from the turmoil of strife should
emerge a broader, more stable, more en
during national existence. We have ap
pealed to arms not because we love scenes
of carnage, but because we love the
triumphs or peace. The hlptory of our
naval combats In particular Is one of al
most uninterrupted success, challenging the
admiration of the world and winning for
. our flag the loudest encomiums of praise;
but we glory'ln the record more because It
hn so powerfully contributed to the Just
settlement of mooted questions affecting
human liberty than because of the mere
' crushing defeat of a dnngeroua enemy. I
presume there Is no one here but that
would be glad If war could be relegated to
oblivion and If the world could enter upon
a perpetual era of good fellowship In whlcli
the rights and privileges of all nations and
races could be respected and conserved and
when the Spirit of the golden rule coul
universally control. Doubtless we were alt
delighted, with the possible exception of the
riutlflere of warships, with tho token of
millennial day when a few years ago the
ciar of Russia called the representatives of
the nations together In disarmament con-
. gress, and doubtless the csnr Is exceed
ingly rejoiced at present that be did not
worg out nis pet hobby on the military and
naval establishments or his own country.
But be that as It may. we. as good citizens,
must give our unqualified endorsement to
all that maHce for abiding peace, not for
getting that th nation that Is best pre
pared for defense? Is tho least likely to have
Its quiet Interrupted. Blackstonn says that
peace Is the very foundation and end of
civil society." Our ewn observation reaches
us that the lower the national life the
greater Us the Indulgence of the martial
spirit and that the evolution of pence Is In
direct ratio with the progress of enlighten
ment. '
Need of Warships.
Then why do we need warships? We need
them as a guaranty of peace. Wo need
them for the protection of Interests which
might be assailed by those whose ideals
are not as high as ours, who might be
prompted to assault for selfish gain. In
the ease of Cuba, we needed thero for the
protection of a foreign bunion of humanity
that was laid at our door and which raised
Its. piteous cry for relief. We need them
to sustain the honor and preBtiga of our
flag upon all sens and under all skies, not
as a means of oppression, not as a threat
of violence, but rather us the exemplifica
tion of the power and Justice of it nation
that was conceived In llbertv. nurtured In
the' school of severe experience and that

to the most sublime heights of Civic grcnt
ness. In tho building of our new navy the gen
eral government has seen In to name u
vessel that Is destined to become ono of Its
greatest and most powerful battleships
after the state which It is my privilege to
here represent. This vessel we ere nhout
to launch. My people accept the proud
distinction wi n rtu app'"' i-itlnn "i me
honor Involved. Even as Nebraska Is dis
tinguished among her ulster states, wo
trust that this great ship may have honor
and prestige among its peers. We hope
that It may prove the staunchest of Its
class, but that Its powers of endurance
may never be tested in the school of actual
war. We hope that Its plating may
possess the greatest resisting power, but
that It may never need to withstand the
onslaught of an Implacable foe. We hope
that its guns may be marvels of accuracy
and projectile power, but that the neces.-lty
for training them upon an enemy may
never exist. We hope that Its crew may
be men of the highest patriotism, worthy
citizens of a great republic, schooled In all
that pertains to naval service and officered
by men who recognize that might does not
make right and that vengennce beicngeth
to Him who rldnth upon the clouds and
whose wonders are manifest upon the
mighty deep. And when the lapse of yeav
shall render It no longer serviceable,
when Its active career shall have come to
an honorable close, may It find an an
chorage In some quiet, land-locked harbor,
there to await the gradual erosion of tl-ne
a memory of power which It was never
necessary to arouse to action, a benedic
tion of abiding peace.
Hon. James Melckel, formerly of Omaha,
followed Governor Mickey, dwelling elo
quently on the enterprise of the Morans,
telling of their great achievements and of
the value and importance of their plant
to the city. He also spoke highly of Ne
braska and complimented the Antelope
state on having such a magnificent vessel
named Nebraska.
Attorney General Prout then spoke, mak
ing himself heard above the din of clanging
sledges and being liberally applauded as
he made point after point. Ho said:
Mr. Chairman, Ladles and Gentlemen:
Nebraska Is proud of this occasion of this
mingling of her citizens with these repre
sentative citizens of Washington.
Removed from you in point of distance by
nearly 2,(100 miles, we are yet sister states,
each belonging to and forming part of the
greatest nation the sun e'er shone urion
-tlt . I'nlted States of America. United'
one in Interest, one In purpose that pur
pose being to keep this nation, aa It Is, the
grcutest of all upon the face of the earth,
to preserve its integrity and Its greatness
aa a heritage to our children and our chil
dren's children forever.
In the event which calls us together to
day we have a common interest. It Is that
of Btarting on its career a powerful agent
for the protection of our common interests,
of our common country.
In the building and launching of this
monster Implement of modern warfare our
government has peculiarly honored both
our states Washington, In that It has en
trusted to its citizens the construction of
this mighty engine of defense; Nebraska,
In that it has chosen our cherished name,
which shall be proudly borne by this float
ing monster or tho sea while under the
folds of the stars and stripes it shall carry
the blessings of liberty and "peace on earth,
good will toward men," to all the people
of the earth, and at the same time demon
strate to the world that the varied Inter
ests for which that banner stands must
be respected and its trade, Its commeroe
and Its citizens be protected from the en
croachments of all.
In the defense of our country and Its In
stitutions on the land, whenever assaulted
by foes from within or without our borders,
the people of our prairie state, though a
peaceful people, trained In the principles
of brotherly love and reared In the at
mosphere of quiet homes, have never been
backward In coming to the front and bear-
lug their rul share of the burden or such
defense, both in money and In men, and
we now feel particularly proud of the honor
conferred upon us In having one of the
largest types of naval vessels named In our
honor. And we feel assured that so long
as this great battleship, built as it has
been by the brain and skill of Washington's
craftsmen under the guiiervlslon and direc
tion of this great shipbuilding firm of
Moran Bros.' company, is manned by Amer
ican seamen and American marines, offi
cered by true- and loyal sons of American
homes, will never bring to shame the proud
namo It bears or the banner whose inter
ests It Is built to defend.
The naval development of the United
Rtutes has not In thft past kept pace with
its other phenomenal progress. I'p to the
time of the declaration of war with Spain
the United States had not been regarded by
the other nations of the world as a marl
time power. Indeed, our navy was the
laughing stock of all of the nations, while
the defenses of our vast coast lines on both
the east and the west were held In con
tempt by other powers of the world, who
had forgotten, apparently, the experience
of England In a few little sea engagements
which took place more than 100 years ago,
when the American navy consisted of right
vessels two of them snips, two of them
brigs and the rest very much smaller,
carrying In all only 114 guns. That little
Meet, manned by the hardy sons of w
Kngiand, all of whom were endowed with !
that spirit, born of patriotism, which has '
ever made American arms invincible, sailed
boldly forth to do battle with a naval
power of 112 battleships, mounting 8.7U
guns. The first achievement of that little
lleet was the capture of eight warships, 150
cannon and 130 barrels of powder. At the
end of the revolutionary war 800 British
ships, fifteen of them battleships, had been
captured by the American navy, together
with over 12.000 prisoners of war, while the
men engaged In our navy were less than
SOU). They had also, apparently, forgotten
th experience cf England In the conflict of
1812. which was to establish forever the
rights of American seamen sailing In Amer
ican vessels under the Stars and Stripe.
- Grand Old Oreaoe..
! Proud old Spain, which had once been the
ruler of the seas, looked at ur long ex
panne of coast on the east and at once
made preparations to send her "flying
squadron" over to reduce New York, Bos
ton and our southern const cities. Then It
was that Dewey was heard from. He sailed
one morning into the harbor of Manila
and Hied a shot from a United States war
vessel that reverberated around the world.
He obeyed to the letter the orders of his
comamnder-ln-chlef, president McICInley
he found and destroyed the Spanish fleet.
At about the si me time the Oregon was
In northern Pacific waters. It waa ordered
to Mart immediately for Cuba to Intercept
the Hying squadron and assist Sampson and
Schley In Its destruction. What a voyage
that wui! How all the world wan bed It aa
It made Its lace of U.OHO nines: doubling the
Hoi ii. ready at all limes to do battle wltlt
any too that might uttempt to Intercept It
in Its course. But It Is unnecessary to
dwell upon the details ot that perilous
voyage. Suffice It to say that Captain
Clark, being Imbued with the true Amer
ican ttplrit, got there The flying squadron,
the flower of the Spanish navy, was driven.
Into the hurtmr of Santiago, (tier vainly
trying to "make a sneak" and escape with

They "screwed their courage to the stick

and boldly aslled out to meet the foe. They
found It re.tdy for the meeting. Soon the

their purpose. "The man behind the gunH
had won. The Spanish navy was a reminis
cence of the faded glory of the Spanish em
pire. Then It was that the world once more
resllzed that the Americans could fight as
effectively on water as on land. Then It
mas that the other nations of the earth
recognized the fact that the t'nlted States
was a power to be reckoned with In all In
ternational affairs. It took Its proper
place among the nations of the earth In the
front rank.
Results of War.
It Is not slnne for the conquering of for
eign foes that this enuntrv should and does
maintain a tlrst-class navy, but rather to
protect us In the mnlntenanre of peaceful
pursuits. For wfc are a peace-loving peo
ple, often enduring insult and wrong rather
than to appeal to the stern arbitrament of
war with any country.
As a result of the war with Fpaln. we n
a nation, found ourselves In possession of
new territory separated from us by thou
sands of miles of ocean. In addition to the
Philippine Islands and Porto Rico, which
we acquired from Fpaln, we also had Ha
waii and Alaska. Our commerce In the
possessions nnd our citizens there needed
protection. Our commerce with other na
tions has expanded marvelously. This, too
needs the fostering and protecting care of
this government.
President Washington, In addressing con
gres, once said:
"To an active external commerce the pro
tection of a nnval force Is Indispensable."
Again he said:
"To secure respect to a neutral flag r.
quires a nival force organized and ready
to vindicate It from Insult and oppres
sion." Our congress, with our exnnndlng trade
with foreign nations, renllzed the truth of
thee statements nnd r providing for
them ss fast ns practicable.
The battleship which we fodsv rhrlten
and launch was ordered built for the pro
tection, more particularly, of our western
const nnd our repldlv Increasing western
commerce. And how fitting flint this shin
should be fashioned nt the port which af
fords the outlet for the greater part of our
trade with the Orient and nnni"d for a
western state which, while one of the farth
est removed from ocean's highway. Is one
which furnishes a lirirc amount of agri
cultural and meat products for export.
And now In conclusion let me propose
th's sentiment:
Washington and Nebraska! As we reach
across the vist plains and rugged mount,
sins and clnsp hands over this mlghtv d
fender of our country's h"nor wrought to
Its crand perfection by the brawn and skill
of Washington's craftsmen, named In honor
of Nebraska's grentness as an fnlnnd stite.
May the bonds of unltv and slsterlv love
be more strongly united, and while Wsh
Ingtnn furnishes an outlet fir our surplus
products on their wav to blest mankind
n-ros 'he seas. "Nebraska" will proudly
ride the wave protecting -your coast nnd
harbors from the encroachment nf foreign
foes, and we ttw" botb r"t w' 1h m-
surance that so long as It Is manned by
the honor of Its builders, the proud name
of Its godmother and the glory of the
flag It so proudly bears at Its masthead
will never be brought to shnme.

BOSTON. Oct. 7. King Leopold of Bel-
glum waa assailed for his policy a sov
ereign of the Congo Free State by E. T,
Morel of England at the public meeting, this
afternoon In connection with the sessions of
the peace congress. He charged that the
king was personally responsible In a large
measure for alleged cruelties practiced on
the native of the Congo Free State In tha
terrific endeavor ot monopolistic commer
clal organizations to obtain all the ivory
and rubber possible. .
The king was defended by Oeorg Her
bert Head of Cambridge. England, who
submitted that King Leopold had done all
possible to stop the alleged cruelties.
The government policy In the Congo also
was bitterly denounced by Rev. Morrison,
for several years a missionary In Congo.
The congress today accepted a report of
the committee on propaganda, recommend
ing that the 'congress In 1906 be held at
Lucerne, Switzerland.
. One of the first things which the congress
did today waa to 'adopt resolutions recom
mending' that all natfons enter Into a
treaty Insuring In case of dispute between
countries that the difficulty would be sub
mitted for settlement to a court created by
a union of all tha powers.
A dinner' was gtvetf tonight at which the
foreign delegates were guests. Speeches were
made by Bishop Perclval . of ' England,
Baroness von Suttnef Booker T. Washing
ton and other.
Plan for Peace Making t'nlon.
The first subject taken up today at the
International peace congress was the
elaborate plan of organizing the nations
Into a positive peace making union, as
favored In resolutions by the Danish Peace
society, the Universal Pence Union of the
United States and other organizations. The
memorial aroused keen Interest among the
delegates. a
The preamble points out that there ia no
concert of action proposed, or feasible
plnn, whereby the machinery of The Hague
convention may be put In force. .
The Hague convention may put In force
powers to prevent war where war 1
threatened, and the present conflict be
tween Russia and Japan shows unmistak
ably that some power more potent and ra
tional than brute force Is needed to pre
vent the useless sacrifice of human life
and property, now become such an object
lesson to the civilized and uncivilized
world.
Therefore It Is
Resolved, That the congress recommend
that a new convention be concluded be
tween the parties which are rmrtlea to
The Hague convention, or so many or'
tnem es may De wining to join in such a
convention, establishing a union between
them on the following basis:
1. Whilst tho high contracting powers
mutually recognize each others absolute
sovereignty and Independence, they bind
themselves each for Itself, to work to
gether for the furtherance of universal
peace. . .
2. The high contracting, powers pledged
themselves to refer to the permanent
arbltal tribunal (Established by the con
vention for the peaceful" solution of In
ternational disputes signed at the Hague,
July 29, 1899). every dispute or con
tention which may arise between them
that cannot be aolved-by-dlelemacy or any
other amicable adjustment agreed upon:
whatever 'the cause, natune.' or object of
dlagreement may be, and .further pledge
themselves not to engage In any warlike
action, directly or Indirectly with respect
to ench other. ...-.
3. Each of the . high , contracting pow
ers shall In turn tuae the presidency of
the union, and, with its accession, the task
of securing the united method of procedure
decided upon In article 4v below, which
has for Its object the fulfillment of the
duty Imposed by article xxvil of the above
named convention. .
4. On January 1 or each year, the presi
dency passes to that one of the signatory
fiowers whose names follow alphabetically,
n French, that of the state or power whose
prcidentmn has expired.
When the list of the states has been gone
through the presidency will be transferred
back to that state or power In the alliance
which stands first alphabetically.
5. In case an acute crisis shall threaten to
break out between two or more powers, the
signatory powers shall immediately, by a
collective note, remind them that the per
manent tribunal is open to them.
The state which holds the presidency
hall, for thl purpose., be provided with
the full authority needed. Its adherence to
the allies carries witn it a Dinaing auty
tn fulfill this task.
Also It shall be the duty of the president
state to offer to states In mutual contention.
If It should seem advisable to do so, the
"rood offices" of the paclgerant alliance
or their mediation.
This duty shall In nowise lessen me ngnt
of any of the allied states to offer Its own
good offices or mediation to the states at
strife, nor shall the . action of the alliance
relieve any of the allied states from the
riutv of uslno- all means within reach to
secure a peaceful or judicial solution oi uia
conflict.
k it nnv nt tha blirh contracting parties
should desire to withdraw from the present
treaty, such withdrawal wouiq not come
Into force until one year after It had noti
fied the remaining states, and then only
with respect to the powers wnicn u nas
notined.
7. This contention Is open to all powers
on sending their adhesion to the president
state for the time being.
Accompanying the above resolution was
a long resume of the "paclgerance" move
ment. .
The time," the memorial says, "would
therefore seem to be ripe for the adoption
of thl resolution. So fur a known there
Is no opposition or objection to It and It 1
only weighted down by the Inertia of In
action." The resolutions were adopted unanimously
with the provision Inserted that the con
gress merely called the attention of th
powers to the treaty suggested in the me
morial as one model for adoption by all.
