ANENT MOT ROE DOCTRINE
’eople of Windy City De/ote i Whole
Lay Entertaining Chief Executive
of the Nation.
President Rotmevelt’s sixty six days’
.our of the west, began in earnest at
Chicago Thursday morning, when ne
stepped from the Pennsylvania special
it 8:45 o’clock and was reeeieved by
Mayor Harrison and a special recep
tion committee, not to mention a nuge
crowd which made Its unofficial pres
ence known by cheer.-; wuich could be
heard across the river.
As soon as the cars could he switch
ed the presidential party started for
Evanston, where the president ad
dressed the students of the Northwest
ern university on the value of a college
education. The party returned to the
Auditorium for luncheon. After lunch
eon the presidential party went to the
University of Chicago in carriages. At
the quadrangle approach to the univer
sity grounds the presidential party
war met hy the faculty and trustees,
in <• i p and gown, and led by President
Haris r.
The president was escorted to Kent
theatre, where President Harper con
[erred the degree of Id..If. Ifr. Har
is r handed the pre.-ident a diploma
and directed ihat. the “doctors hood’
be placed upon his shoulders. The
pre i dm i poke no won!, but bowed it,
acknowledgment of the honor confer
red. As the procession emerged from
the theatre the university hand played
national airs and deafening college
yells greeted the president.
At tile head of a cenvn. ulion pro
cession, in which the young women of
the college participated, the president
made his way to the site of the new
law school building, whore prepara
tions had been made for him to lay
the corner stone. ^
An immense stone, weighing 7 tons,
was ready to be lowered in place.
President Roosevelt, trowel in band,
gave Hie signal, and as tho huge mass
settled upon its foundation he cast a
small quantity of mortar beneath it.
The presidential party thou returned
to the city.
Speaks on Monroe Doctrine.
Six thousand people in a hall, the
seating capacity of which is only 5.000.
gave enthusiastic greeting to President
Roosevelt when ne stepped upon the
stage of tlie auditorium Thursday
night to deliver a speech on theMonroa
doctrine. Many of those present stool
without the doors and were unable to
hear the president's speech on account
of the tumult.
The address throughout was receiv
ed itt the most cordial manner.
At the close of his speech the presi
dent said:
"There is a homely old adage which
runs, 'Speak softly and carry a big
stick; you will go far.' if the Ameri
can nation will speak softly and yet
build and keep at a pitch of the high
est training a thoroughly efficient
navy, the Monroe doctrine will go far.
“Well, in the last two years I am
happy to say that we have taken long
strides in advance as regards our navy
The last congress, in addition to small
er vessels, provided nine of those for
midable fighting ships upon which the
real efficiency of any navy in war ulti
mately depends. Meanwhile the navy
department has seen to it that our
ships have been constantly exercised
at sea, with great guns, and in maneu
vers, so that their efficiency as fighting
units, both individually and when act
ing together, has been steadily im
proved.
“It is too late to prepare for war
when war has come; and if we only
prepare sutficientlv no war will ever
come. We wish a powerful and effi
cient navy not for purposes of war,
but as the surest guaranty of peace
If wo have such a navy if wo keep on
building it up- w - may re : assured
that there is but the sny i.-y chance
that trouble will ever come to this nt
tion; and we may likewise rest assur
ct thtvt no foreign power will ever
quarrel with us about the Monroe doc
trine.”
At the conclusion of tie . -s
there was renewed am > ap
plause. and while the gro iter part -f
the audience was 'c aving in the
president was holding ar. imp- meu
reception on the platform, as all the
members of the committee who hal

“LET TARIFF ALONE!”
Shouts Roosevelt in His Minneapolis
Speech--Urges Fair Dealing With
Island of Cuba.
President Roosevelt was enthuasti
cally welcomed in the Twin Cities—
St. Paul and Minneapolis. From the
time he arrived at St. Paul in the
morning until his departure from Min
neapolis near midnight for the west,
the president wa3 the recipient of a
continual ovation, the streets through
which he passed in both cities being a
mass c< peppie, while armory hall wa3
crowded.
The speech at the armory on the
tariff and reciprocity was well receiv
ed. The president touched on the Cu
ban situation, declaring that we must
have military control of southern wa
ters and saying that the United
States was the most prosperous na
tion known to history. Every pause
in the delivery of the address was re
plete with approving cheers. He spoke
in part as follows:
“At the special session of the sen
ate, held in March, the Cuban recip
rocky treaty was ratified. When this
treaty goes into effect, it will confer
substantial economic benefits alike
upon the Cuba, because of the widen
ing of her market in the United
States, and upon the United States
because of the equal widening
and the progressive control it will
give to our people in the Cuban mar
ket.
“The treaty was not merely warran
ted but demanded, apart from all oili
er considerations, by the enlightened
consideration of our foreign policy.
More and more in the future we must
occupy a preponderant position in the
waters and along the coasts in the re
gion south of us; not a position of
control over the republics of the soutn,
but of control of the military situa
tion so as to avoid any possible com
plications in the miure.
The republic of Cuba has assumed a
special relation to our international
political system, under which she
gives us outposts of defense, and we
are morally oound to extend to her in
a degree the benefit of our own eco
nomic system.
“Equally important was the action
on the tariff upon products of the Phil
ippines. We gave them a reduction of
25 per cent, and would have given
them a reduction of 25 per cent more
had it not keen for the opposition, in
the hurried closing days of the last
session, of certain gentlemen, who, bv
the have been represent’ -
way, ’-'*:
themselves both r.s peculiarly solicit
ous for the interests of the Philippine
people and as special champions of
the lowering of tariff duties.
“We arc now in a condition of pros
perity unparalleled not merely in our
own history, but in the history of any
other nation.
“The present phenomenal prosper
ity has been won under a tariff which
was mado in accordance with certain
fixed and definite principles, the most
Important of which is an avowed de
termination to protect the interests o(
tho American producers, business
man, wage worker, and farmer alike.
The general tariff policy, to which,
without regard to changes in detail, I
believe this country is irrevocably
committed, is fundamentally based
upon ample recognition of the differ
ence between the cost of production—
that is, the cost of labor—here and
abroad, and of the need to see to ii
that our laws shall in no event afford
advantage in our own market to for
eign industries over American capita.:,
to foreign labor over our own labor.''
