Tloosevelt bore tribute to the services ren
dcrod by Senator Burkett at lrttical times
in his administration as president, and
complimented the senior senator very high
ly by reading part of an address made by
him In the senate touching the high quali
ties needful to the best type of citizen and
public servant. The extract was read with
vim and emphasis, such as the man on his
feet alone could give them.
Being Insistently called for, Iowa's senior
senator stepped to the edge of the plat
form, hat In hand, and made himself heard
to every corner of the hall as he com
mended certain utterances of Thomas Jef
ferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodora
Roosevelt Alluding to the latter, he thun
dered the slogan of "the square deal," and
caught his hearers with the assertion that
it would be carried but more and more
hereafter.
Maltltade Throngs Aadltorlwm.
The crowd which heard Roosevelt's speech
began to gather hours before 3 o'clock, the
time set for the doors to be opened, it
being on record that the first would-be
auditor arrived at the uudltorlum doors at
high noon. By the time the automobiles
bearing the visitor and his party hove into
sight, there was not a vacant foot of floor
space In the vast auditorium, and the
treeets on either side of the big building
were almost equally jammed. All of this
means tha about 10,000 people heard the
colonel's speech and almost as many had
to be satisfied with gating at, the , dis
tinguished man's smiling countenance.
Friday's rowd was typically American.
It was composed of poor men, rich men
and beggar men, and women and children,,
all rubbing; elbows, and it was surely a
Roosevelt i crowd in spirit, ' There ''was
nothing resembling worship or near-royalty
nor were there many In the vast .crowd
who had a word of criticism for tha city's
guest. It was a concourse of people, who,
irrespective of party or other affiliations,
had assembled to do their mite to honor
one whom they had learned to love.
An especially noticeable feature in the
crowd was the large number of elderly
people. This was probably due, in part to
the genial weather which prevailed and yet
it testified to the respect which the older
people of tha country have for Roosevelt,
himself a younger man.
A Roosevelt crowd would not be com
plete without Children and they were there
In force. It 4s estimated that if the daunt
Uss colonel had kissed every baby In his
audltnce he would have been busy until
tlw year, 191 J, but ha omitted that part
o ftlia program..
There was a good deal of crushing when
tha doors of the Auditorium were thrown
open, and yet an the whole, the crushing
multitude was a good-natured one. and Its
units laughd and joked each other as the
-fight was made to secure eligible seats.
Kvery scat of any kind was occupied by
3:15. Thousands of both sexes and of all
ages stood up In the side aisles of the
arena floor; In the speace back of the seats
and In the aisles of the baloonles. Even
the shop stairways and platforms leading
to the roof were tronged and hundreds
verflowed onto the roof itself, taking what
satisfaction' they might from peeking
through the windows far up toward the
aky Una.
Teat of Address.
A fsw minutes after 4 o'clock tha colonel
arrived. He was seated with-'lctor Rose
water in the tonnea uof the Dleu machine,
an das he drove along Howard street to
. the side of the Auditorium entrance the
cheers and applause which went up from
the crow dalotig the sidewalk was almost
deafening. Mr. Roosevelt looked tired as
he walked between the Una of policemen to
the entrance of the big hall, and paid little
attention to the crowd until he had reached
the top of the steps. Then he turned, lifted
his hat and bowed several times. As the
ex-presldent passed from the street to the
ahll a number of the ultra-enthuslestlcs
attempted to launch a presidential boomlet
with cries of "lSU." "Our next president.";
and similar expressions, but the only no
tice of them whls hthe gueet showed was
a slight broadening of tha habitual smile
and a few words to those who were with
htm, which were indistinguishable to the
crowd.
William I. Klerstead and his three aides,
Charles L. Saunders. Charles H. Wllhnell
and Gtorge C. West, handled the stage ar
rangomnla and the accommodations for
the press men In admirable fashion. There
wa sno confusion In placing the earlier ar
rivals, probably 60 (Mn number; and whfTi
the colonel and Id sparty and the visiting
men from other states and cities came they
found scasl awaiting them in eligible posi
tion to see and hear. Even an unexpected
bevy of women were accommodated at the
tilde of the stage.

Following is the text of the Roosevelt
addrrss on "The Panama Canal:"
"In traveling In Kuroi lam spring one
thing which especially struck me was the
fact that the two feats which made the'
deepest Impression abroad wrre the cruise
of tha battle fleet around the world and
the digging of the Panama canal. These
wrre the two feats to be credited to the
American people during the last decade,
which had most profoundly and favorably
affected foreign judgment of Amerira dur

"Now, there is no use of a nation claim
ing to be a great nation unless it Is pre
pared to play a great part. A nation such
as ours cannot possibly play a great part
In International affairs, cannot expect to
be treated as a weight In either the At
lantic or the Pacific, or to have Its voice
as to the Monroe doctrine or the manage
ment of the Panama canal heeded unless
it has a strong and thoroughly efficient
navy. Within the last decade the Amer
ican navy has been about trebled In
strength andt much more than trebled in
efficiency, due to Kb extraordinary prog
ress in marksmanship and maneuvering.
So far from this Increase In naval strength
representing on our part either a menace
of aggression to weaker nations or a
menace of war to stronger nations it has
told most powerfully for peace. Every
where in Europe the cruise of the battle
fleet around the world was accepted, not
only as an extraordinary feat, reflecting
the highest honor upon our navy, but as
one of the movements which tended mark
edly to promote peaceful' stability in Inter
natlbnal relations.
Nation's View of Cruise.
"No nation regarded the cruise as fraught
with any menace of hostility' to Itself; and
yet every nation accepted It as a proof
that wa were not only desirous ourselves
to keep the peace, but able to prevent the
peace being broken at our expense. No
cruise in any way approaching It has ever
been made, by any fleet of any power; and
the best naval opinion abroad had been
that no such feat was possible, that is, that
no such cruise as that we actually made
could be undertaken by a fleet of such size
without numerable breakdowns and acci
dents. The success of ' tha ' cruise per
formed as It was without a single accident.
Immeasurably raised the prestige, not only
of our fleet but of the nation; and was a
distinct help, to the causa of International
peace.
"As regards the Panama canal, I really
thank that outside nations have a Juster
idea than our own people of the magnitude
and success of the wurk.-r-t wish our peo
ple realised what is being done on the Isth
mus. If a -man of Intelligence who had
never left this country asked roe whether
I would advise him to make a short trip
to Europe, or a-trip to the Panama canal,,
I would, without hesitation, advise him to
go to tha Panama canal. He would there
see in operation the completing of one of
the great feats of modern times. Colonel
Goethals and tha men working under him
are rendering a service to this country
which can only be parcelled in out past
history by some of the services rendered
in certain wars.
"Six years ago last spring the American
government took possession of the Isthmus.
The first two years were devoted to the
sanitation of the Isthmus, to assembling
the plant and the working force, and pro
viding quarters, food and water supplies.
In all these points the success was extraor
dinary. From one of the plague spots
of the globe, one of the most unhealthy re
gions in tha entire world, the Isthmus has
been turned Into a singularly healthy place
to abide, where the death rate Is small,
and where hundreds of children are now
being raised under aa favorable conditions
as In most parts of the United States. The
quarters, food and water supply are excel
lent and tha plant tha best ever gathered
for such a purpose."

and last and full of pleasure for him, and
thus he lets a man" go by with a mighty

f Ua.ats Are Seated.
As the guests filed by the place where
Roosevelt stood they proceeded to the
tables and found their places all fixed by
the names on the elaborate menu cards.
left at every plate. When the former pres
ident took his scat he was close to the ten
nis courts. On his right were Senators
Brown and Burkett, while Chairman Rose
water and Governor Shallenberger had the
two seats at his left. Facing the guest of
honor and all about him were congressmen,
judges, candidates for office and a more
than ordinarily numerous showing of the
Influential business and professional men
of Omaha, liacoln and tha state.
It was not long after he took his seat
until Colonel Roosevelt turned half way
round to have a peek aa the tennis court,
and then he discovered a fringe of grinning
faces peeking over the rim of the plat
form. The faces belonged to the caddies
and their boy friends and some of the
Junior tennis players and the colonel gave
thain an all-embracing smile and a wave
of Ms hand that made them grin some
more. If that were possible. "Gee, he's all
right," pronounced one of the leaders, and
every lad echoed the Venliment.
During the course of the luncheon Colonel
Roosevelt engaged in lively conversation
with the men immediately about and facing
him. He Is not so robust a feeder ss he

ference thereof and the will went for the
deed. '
The veterans of the civil war and the
Spanish war were assembled to meet the
colonel and before the luncheon was over
were drawn up in a hollow square about the
flag staff to the north of the club house.
The Grand Army of the Republio veterans
marched to the club house from the car In
line with a flag preceding them.
Makes Two Speeches.
Colonel Roosevelt made two short
speeches at the Field club after tha mid
day lunheon, one immediately-following
the luncheon and the other to the 200 or
more Spanish war and G. A. R. veterans
who had gathered to welcome him Just
before he returned to the city.
His after-dinner address, although short
was very much to the point He urged a
national uprising against corrupt politi
cians,' corrupt business men and corrupt
corporation lawyers, saying the nation
must either wipe out all such corruption
or go down to ruin; and not only will the
nation go down to ruin, but it will blacken
the hope of every man in the world who
has his aspiration wrapped up in this, the
world's only real democracy. .
Although the luncheon was a strictly
masculine affair, the women determined
to have their turn al, welcoming the visi
tor. As soon as Colonel Roosevelt left the
club house and started across the lawn he
was surrounded by a 'large number Of
women who crowded the men out of the
way and demanded a handshake which was
gladly bestowed.

forming a large circle at. tha foot of the
flag pole. Colonel Roosevelt was escorted
to the center of the circle. The minute he
appeared, bareheaded 'despite the glaring
sun, every soldier uncovered In truly mili
tary fashion and three rousing cheers
went up for Colonel Roosevelt the soldier.
Speaks to Old Soldiers.
His words to the veterans of the two
wars wera few. "I am glad to be among

task of an earlier day. For the veterans
of tha Spanish war, they did not have such
a chance as you had. but It was not their
fault there waa not enough war to go
round, it was ail the war there wa.
Chairman Rosewater of the entertain
ment committee Introduced Colonel Roose
velt at the close of the luncheon and there
were no other addresses. Colonel Roose
veit spoke of how greatly he appreciated
being again In Omaha and in Nebraska.
He then spoke of his recent tour In the
countries of Europe and some of the im
pressions he received as a result. In sub
stanoe his talk was as follows:
"I have always felt friendly to foreign
nations and I have always bekeved that
the real test of patriotic love la for a man
to sojourn for a time in another country.
now, since my return, I have even
greater feeling of friendliness than before.
although In my mind there la only one
place on earth for a man to live the United
Mates of Am.rlca
Every Slau Has a Chance.
"This is one country where there Is a
chance for the average , man such
mere is nowhere else on earth. In no
country has a man a better chance to
lead his life upward toward proper devel
opment and with more opportunities than
ne has right here in America.
Of course, if a man is devoted merely to
the pursuit of pleasure this country Is not
a gooa country ror him. There Is no good
country for him. Of all the dlMmal and
empty careers, the most dismal and empty
Is that of any one who 1b solely devoted to
pleasure. .
"Everywhere abroad I was more than In
terested to see how the different states are
watching us and how they are looking at
what we are doing toward the solution of
tne many problems now 'before us. They
are depending upon us for the solution of
social problems. There Is a grave responsi
bility upon us. America la a name which
symbolises hope. If a man in another land
has suffered from Injustice he immediately
turns his eyes toward this country, where
he knows he would be given a chance.
Sarprlse sit Corruption.
"Everywhere I went there were exnres
stons of astonishment over the accounts
of business and political corruption In this
country. I have felt ashamed when I saw
how the Impression exists that there Is
more business and political corruption here
than in any other nation. Every deed of
lawless violence is a blow at democracy, at
a government by the people. The mob that
lynches a criminal puts themselves on the
same level of hideous infamy the criminal
stands on. Every member of a mob is
striking a blow at the cause of popular
government
"It Is our duty to create a public opinion
which will not tolerate wrong In any shape.
We must exact from our big politicians,
business men and corporation heads not
merely honesty and a compliance with the
law sufficient to keep them out of Jail, but
an honekty that can be felt in a community
as a living force."
Colonel Roosevelt, as soon as he finished
his address to the uM soldiers, wss whisked
away lu the official auto, Uould Ditu's big
red torpedo car, and taken to the Omaha
club for a short rest before going to the
uditorlum for the afternoon meeting.
Leaving the Field club he was accompanied
by Mr. Rosewater, General Smith and Mr.
Diets.
QT.IET MOItJIIJia AT THE ClA'B
Roosevelt Says He Eojoye Brief
HeatlBsr Spell.
The morning which Colonel Roosevelt
spent at the historic Omaha club was a
quiet One and the country's first cltiien
appreciated it As he was leaving the club
house for the Field club, he remarked to
one of the members of his party: "Do you
know, that Is the first time almost since I
left New York that I have had an hour and
a quarter to myself and It seemed good,
too."
When the oolonel arrived In the city he
found a heap of mall awaiting him and
much of the morning's time waa spent In
going over this and answering that part
of It which demanded Immediate attention.
Several short conferences broke In on the
time, however, and, although he dented
himself to the public, Mr. Roosevelt's morn
ing was far from a laxy one.
Soon after breakfast a short conference
was held with Senator Jonathan P. Dolll
ver, the Iowa Insurgent leader, and but a
few minutes after Senator Dolllver had left
Senators Burkett and Brown of Nebraska,
were closeted with the ex-presldent for a
considerable time.
At a few minutes after o'clock. Mayor
Dahlman called on the distinguished visl
tor. As he entered the room the Roose
veltlan grin enveloped the features of the
colonel and as he reached out his hand he
said: "How do you do, my fellow cow
puncher." The mayor remarked that he
had understood that Colonel Roosevelt had
also had some experience along that Una,
After a few minutes conversation, tha ma
yor retired.
Governor Shnllenberger Calls.
At a few mlnutea oefore 10, Governor
Bhallenberger called upon Mr. Roosevelt.
The governor, who was accompanied by
his military aide. Colonel Brown, remained
only a short time. No other person except
the members of the local arrangements
committee saw Colonel Roosevelt during
the morning. He refused to see any news
paper men, and even abandoned the hour s
talk with the newspaper men who accom
panied him, whloh has so far been a dally
feature of the trip.
The party had been scheduled to leave
the club house at 11:30. and it was but a
few minutes after that time when Colonel
Roosevelt descended the broad staircase
leading into the lobby of the club house.
John L. Kennedy and Victor Rosewater
were with him. He wore a black cutaway
coat grey trousers and the traditional "lay-
down" collar and carried a blacK nat ana
a top coat To one who has not seen him
since his last visit to Omaha, the visitor
appeared considerably heavier and Just a
bit older.
The 'first man to be greeted by the col
onel at the foot of the stairs was ex-Gov
ernor Sheldon. Turning to him as he
grasped his hand In the vise-like grip, Col
onel Roosevelt said. "By George, I'm glad
to see you. This brings baok those Missis
sippi and Louisiana days," alluding to the
days which the two spent together on a
trip down the river on a steamboat. Just
then someone in the crowd In the lobby
remarked that the colonel looked wen
after his African trip. Again the grin and
again a hearty hand clasp as he fairly
shouted, "Indeed I did have a good time
in Africa."
The famous hunter's attention waa called
to the buffalo and elk heads which adorn
the club house walls and then for a mo
ment the hunter In hie natureas upper
most and he was "inquiring from -those
near him If the heads were from game that
had been bagged by club members. '"They
are fine trophies," he said, when informed
that they were. Postmaster Thomas said
to Mr. Roosevelt, "Colonel, the noon papers
say you was the only live man in your
party this morning." Turning to one of
the newspaper men In his party, wltn the
irrepressible grin, the visitor exclaimed: "I
say, good for the afternoon papers."
As ; he was going down the steps ne
stopped for . a moment to talk with a
Associate Press representative and then
entered the car, which waa waiting for
him. He entered the tonneau with Victor
Rosewater, while John L. Kennedy and
Gould Diets, Whose car It is, occupied the
front seats. -. , .
After he had entered the car and before
it got under full speed the colonel was
constantly shaking hands with enthusiastic
admirers who reached up their hands above
the body of tha car. As the car drove off
he rose to his feet and, ralslnj his nat,
bowed to the crowd again and again. One
carriage, load of people, who had a huge
"Teddy-bear" with them, got an extra and
individual bow from the colonel.

Reporters Put
O.K. on Omafia,
Knock Denver
Big Newspaper Men on Rooseveit
Train Say Omaha ia All Eight,
but Denver Uncouth.
On the special train that has been bearln.
the colonel around the country during the
last weeks is a squad of newspaper men
of first rank In the profession. Everywhere
tney go the entertainment that Is lavished
upon the colonel is also lavished upon them.
i raveling with Roosevelt Is the moat
nerve racking and wearying task that a
human being ever tackled," says GUson
Gardner, syndicate correspondent for the
United Press. "I have been at it for
months, and when I once get through I
shall arrange for a long rest during which
I will never hear of anything to eat' or
drink. As Roosevelt himself remarked
when we got on the steamer to leave for
home after the trip through Europe and
the African tour, "I hope I may never see
a champagne bottle or a banquet menu
again."
'To express the opinion of a newspaper
man who has never scarcely been off
Broadway before," said J. J. Doyle of the
New York Press, "the west is a- big sur
prise.
'Chicago I had "seen before, and it Is
only a cheap imitation of New York, but
Kansas City and Omaha are real cities
Here you see something of the New York
brand of Intelligence. You do not ape New
York, but have struok out along your own
lines and are making your own ways.
I suppose we would be In a desert waste
everywhere, except in the irrigated coun
try, but your town is beautiful. I was
surprised, at the complete disappearance
of the cowboy as an Institution around
Laramie and towns of that sort and like
every other easterner, was rather disap
pointed to find that the only thing that
looks like a real cowboy Is the show cow
boy, who rides around town making a dls
play of himself for the ben. fit of the
strangers.
"In Denver, there Is no hospitality. The
town as we found It was marked by a
complete dlregard for the conventionalities
of etiquette, and there seemed to be no
real hospitality for us or for him."
In the party at Omaha were W. B. How
land and E. H. Abbott of the Outlook and
from New York and Chicago papers and the
Associated Press such well known reporters
as John Squra, Gllson Gardner, who was
on the African tour; Charles E. Kern and
