At Evans Hall he made a re ply to a speech delivered yesterday by William J.

Roosevc-lt's address at Evansville follows: Gov. RooeoveK replied to Mr. Bryan's assertion tha# the President asked for an army of ino.Oft) men two vnoatha be fore the Philippine war broke out. by saying thut th** bill for an Increase of tn* army was Intrcxhxel by Senator Cock rell of Missouri, a Bryan supporter, and wh> intended to meet the threatening con ditions in the archipelago. At the time the President's recommendation was made, said Gov. Roosevelt, h collision w * imminent wrlrh the insurgent army. Gov. Roosevelt, in ha* turn, put these questions to Mr. Bryan: 1 If elected, Mr Brysn. will you pay the obligations of the nation In gold or in silver? % 2. Will you ref use to accept the elec toral votes of North Carolina because ob tained without the consent of the govern ed, and will you now at once denounce ihe action of eour party associates who helped to nominate you for establishing by the constitution in North Carolina* the doctrine that one rnnn is good enough to govern another without hlw consent? 3. Will you denounce your party as sociate* in Ptxngress. who voted on June 1 last, that the national government should not be given the power to control trusts? To the queetlon* a*ko) by Mr Bryan In a Michigan speech. Gov. Roosevelt made the following repllew Question 1: If a trust Is a good thing, why did the Republican platform de nounce trusts? Answer The Republican party de nounced the evils of trusts and pointed out the way those evil* could be .octroilf.l and minimised. 2. If the trust* are hud thing*, why did the Republican administration allow more trusts to be* organised than during all previous hlstor> of the country? An-wer: The Republican administration did not allow more trust* to he organised than during all previous history of the country. The Standard Oil Company, the American Sug*r Refining Company, ami all the otner more important cruets came into exigence long before ihe present ad ministration. Moreover. Mr. Bryan kftows perfectly weU that the na tional government cannot prevent the or ganisation of these trusi*. Question 3: If some trust* are good and some bad. can you tell the difference between a good one and i had one? Question 4: Do you know of any good monopoly in private hands'* Question 5: Do you know any man good enough to stand at the head of a monopoly and de*ermlnr the price of that which oher* are to use? Answer: Mr Bryan's terminology I* here so loose that it Is dlfft- ult to know what he means. If he u*es "trusts" In the sense, of large corporation*, any Intel ligent man must know that there ore some good -orpor at ion* and some had corpon tlons, and the difference between them can le told as readily as the difference between two wealthy private individuals. As for monopolies in private hand*, pa - ent* ore such monopolies, and If Mr. Brv an means that all monopolies are had. he means that patent law * non Id be abolish **d outright Doe* he really m* an this? If not. his wools mean nothing. Question * Do you know of any good reason why the army should be mode 100.00 b? Answer: Here again Mr Bryan'* lan guage Is loose If he I-. *|eaking of the present army of ©,•*) tegular* and 35.00) volunteers, then every man who possess es an ounce of common hense or an ounce or patriotism must know not only that there 1* very good reason for having bad it. hut no possible excuse for refusing to have it. It has been needed in the Philippine*. It has been needed In t’hlna Question 7: Would you be willing to make the army 300.000 if the Republican leaders said no. or a half million If they wanted It? Answer: It Is hard to believe that this question I* put In good fabh. for no one has dreamed of asking for on army of SUi.noo or a ha.f-mlllton. No Increase of the army will ever he asked for by He publbwns nave because of reawjns which would eatlsfy Ihe people a* they were satisfied In the days of lAncoln. Question : What la your title to the Filipinos? Did you buy them or did you get them by force? V Answer: There le. of course, no title to tie- Filipinos, save as there Is a tltie to the Inhanttants of Alaska or of the Ha waiian Islands. The Philippine Islands were acquired under President McKinley by treaty and purchase, exactly a* the lulslana territory was acquired under Jefferson. Question Do you think you can buy the right to govern people? Answer: Tnht has already been answer ed in my reply to No . Kvldentiy Thomas Jefferson thought tha we could buy the right to govern the Indiana of the l-mikrtana purchase. Question 10: What are you going to do with the Filipino when you get him? Are you going lo kill hlro? Answer: We are not going o klil th Ftllplno until he tries to kill our soldiers, ind he will stop trying to kill our aol dler* very soon after he becomes con vinced that h will receive no old In Ihe effort from the parly of which Mr Bry sn Is chief As to whai we are going to do with him the answer Is simple. Wo are going to clvllla* him. WARRIOR TALKED OF PEACE. Roosevelt Raid Nice Things ta 'be Friends of PlatnHrld. OreeticaeU*. Ind. Oct. U.-Oov.
