Indiana Representative Pays Eloquent Tribute to the American Soldier. REPUBLIC’S BENEFICENT MISSION At Home the Prosperity and Happiness of the People, Abroad the Bestowal of the Blessings of Law, Order and Civilization. Representative Charles B. Landis of Indiana on June 24th made eloquent reply to those Democratic leaders who have persistently sought to discredit not only the American soldier, but the sincerity of the government in its efforts for the betterment of conditions in the island possessions which came to ue as the fortune of war. This speech was one of the notable events of the last session of congress, and groused great enthusiasm on the floor of the house. A few extracts from this speech follow:
The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Kern), in an address delivered on the floor of this house a few days ago, used these words: “I have not met a soldier who has returned from the Philippine Islands who was not looking for a government job or some other sort of government favor, who had one word of commendation or approval for our policy in the Philippine Islands.” Mr. Chairman, I have met such a soldier. I met him, and I attended his funeral in the little city in which I live the latter part of last October. It seemed to those who had known him and had seen him grow from childhood that he was but a boy, and such in truth and fact he was. But he was a “regular.” He served with the Fourth cavalry. His father was a Michigan soldier, and from him the son inherited the divine spark. He ran away from school to enlist, left his books to go to war. It was the same old story in which is written so much of our nation’s” glory. He was with Schwan, with Lawton and with Young all through the Luzon. He came back with his regiment to be mustered out the following spring. His health was so poor he was furloughed from Jefferson Barracks, Mo., in order that he might return to his home in Delphi, Ind. I was at the train when he arrived. I saw him drag his poor, emaciated body from the car, and, half supported by his old friends and neighbors, stagger across the platform and fall into the arms of his mother. He lived just one month and then he died. It was a beautiful day when we laid him away in the cemetery overlooking the valley. Thousands of people attended his funeral. Hundreds of them stood under the trees, beautiful In their au-
tumnal foliage, while the sad and sol- 1 emn service progressed. His former schoolmates were his pallbearers, and his casket was draped In a beautiful American flag. In the evening, just j as the sun left ue to give light to those people for whom he gave his life, we< burled his poor remains from the sight of men forever. What One Soldier Said. Mr. Chairman, Oliver Cockrane did not come home expecting to receive a government job. Oliver Cockrane did not come home expecting to receive any sort of governmental favor. Oliver Cockrane did indorse the policy of his country tn the Philippine Islands. I talked with him a score of times during that month and he told me he indorsed tt. He said If there was one objection he would make to that policy it was that his country was too humane, too gentle and It was that it did not visit to a greater degree upon those people the heavy hand of its authority. A few days before this soldier died,' as I was sitting in his room, he turned hie face toward me, and, with his great eyes Illumined with patriotic fire, he ‘teaid: "We soldiers who have served in the Philippine Islands do not want to have it said in years to comp that we followed a retreating flag,” ' “We soldiers who served in the Philippine Islands do not want to have it said in years to come that we followed a retreating flag.” There is more eloquence, there is more patriotism, there is more philosophy In that single sentence than in all the utterances of the antl-imperlallsts since the first shot was fired In Manila Bay, May 1, 1898.
Not a Flag of Retreat. And they will not have it said In years to come that they followed a retreating flag. We have heard it said on this floor that the American flag has retreated; that it retreated from Tripoli. I deny It. It performed Its mission In Tripoli and then passed on. And murder and rapine and piracy along the Mediterranean became a reminiscence. We have heard it said that it retreated from Mexico. I deny it. It performed its mission in Mexico and passed on. That triumphant march from the Rio Grande to the City of Mexico was the timely chastisement that dignity and decency gave to arrogance and Impudence, and It has been ever since an inspiration to that people. We have been told that our flag retreated from Cube. I deny that. It performed its mission In Cuba and passed on, and the image of that flag is today worn in the heart of every grateful Cuban, its meaning Is written In every line of their constitution, and that flag is over Cuba today, an inspiration and a protection. This same flag has a mission to perform in the Philippine Islands. It will perform that mission and may pass on, but It will never retreat. • ♦ * • • Criticism of the Soldier. Our friends on the other side have criticised and have been particularly severe on the American soldier. They say they have not had anything against the American soldier, but they are against the policy auopted by this administration in the Philippine Islands. The soldiers, however, represent their sons, and their neighbors’ sons, people from their own states, people from the districts which many of them represent, and It would seem that common sympathy would dictate that they give some sort of kindly consideration to them.
They have nothing against the soldiers, they say, and yet, when there was brought into this house the other day a bill providing an appropriation of $500,000 for the proper shelter of the officers and enlisted men of the army of hte United States, lawfully on duty in the Philippine Islands, to be expended at the discretion of the president, every Democrat except seven voted against it, and every Republican on the floor of this house voted in favor of it. “Not another soldier nor another dollar for this unholy war.” That is the same cry we heard in this republic one-third of a century ago when the life of the nation was at stake. They said it to Abraham Lincoln when he was struggling in anguish and in prayer to preserve the life of the nation. “Not another dollar nor another soldier for this unholy war,” and they said the war was a failure. But the soldiers marched on, and the republic was saved and the flag floats over all the states just as it did in 1860. This slander and this abuse of the army is having its effect. It caused the death the other day of one of the brave fellows who survived the massacre of Balangiga. He was killed, or fatally wounded, in the state of Tennessee. Some one in his presence charged that “two-thirds of the American soldiers who went to the Philippines were hoodlums and the other third were cowards and bullies,” and, brave man that he was, he resented it. He survived Balangiga to be killed in Tennessee while defending the honor of his- comrades. Who sowed that

There Is just' enough of the oldfashioned doctrine of predestination in me to lead me to have faith in the ultimate glorious destiny of this republic and the final world-wide triumph and domination of the AngloSaxon race. As has been said by a gifted writer, this Anglo-Saxon civilization has been on the march for nearly 2,000 years. At times that march has been slow and sometimes it has seemed as though the last camp had been reached. The fires of the bivouac once or twice went out, apparently never again to be lighted, but suddenly the flame again flashed forth and the march went on. No territory passed by this AngloSaxon tread has ever been lost to enlightenment, to liberty and to law. Britain recognized the banner, and twelve centuries later the Anglo-Saxon colors went up at Jamestown. It required a century and a quarter for them to cross to the valley beyond these mountains. About that time the older branch of this race planted the flag in Canada and In India, while the younger branch went to the Mississippi. The Spaniard threw the great Louisiana territory into the lap of France as a bulwark against the advance, but the clear vision of Napoleon Bonaparte saw a destined republic, extending from ocean to ocean, and with the single stroke of a pen he annulled the alliance which the heirs of Isabella had attempted to make against fate. Three generations after the ink dried on that parchment happy children were playing in American homes along the Platte, the Columbia and the Sacramento.
The American Spirit. It was not Thomas Jefferson that gained the territory west of the Mississippi for this republic; neither was it due to the political complications among European nations. This determined the time and offered the opportunity for the acquisition. It was the sublime might and destiny of the American people, the heirs of the traditions and fortunes of a world-master-ing race, which won Louisiana for the United States; and It is this same spirit of liberty and this same passion for law, still springing from the breasts of heroes, that will nourish the libraries planted at Manila and make effective the mission upon which we start the law for civil government which we are now framing, and upon it all we can, without Pharisaical pretense or hypocrisy, ask the favor and blessing of Almighty God. I believe this republic has a mission both at home and abroad; its mission at home, the happiness and prosperity of its own people—lts mission abroad, the bestowal of the blessings of law and order and civilization upon other people, even upon tnose who live in th* uttermost parts of the earth.
A good many people were too busy to vote in 1892 who were not too busy to do so in 1894. Don’t try that remedy for overwork this year.
FACTS ABOUT REPUBLICAN STATE CANDIDATES
Senator Charles W. Fairbanks: While the Indiana reorganized Democracy in its state platform demands popular election of United States senators, the Indiana Republicans, preferring always performance to profession, are setting an example they do not follow by giving the Indiana voter an opportunity to cast his vote for or against a candidate whose election is certain to follow the selection of a Republican legislature. Senator Fairbanks is so well known in this state that the details of his career are not in the nature of news. He was born in Union county, Ohio, fifty years ago; was graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University in 1872; was admitted to the bar in 1874; removed to Indianapolis the same year, and has since been continuously a resident of this state. He had advanced to the front rank of his profession and to the leadership of Indiana Republicanism when elected United States senator in 1897. He was temporary chairman of the Republican national convention which nominated W T illlam ’ McKinley for president in 1896, and was chairman of the committee on resolutions and as such reported the platform in the national convention of 1900. He was a member of the United States and British high joint commission of 1898, and cifairman of the United States commissioners. He is chariman of the important senate committee on Public Buildings and Grounds. During his first term as United States senator he has arisen to a place of commanding influence in national affairs rarely attained within so short a time. He has been a strong , factor in the most important legislation of the great era which began with the inauguration of William McKinley. Entering the senate on the day Major McKinley became president, he was conspiciuously identified with the great administration of the martyred president, whose respect and confidence he enjoyed in fullest measure. His re-election to the senate will be a great state’s seal of approval upon a ■ public career of large and increasing usefulness. Daniel E. Storms, candidate for secretary of state, was born In Tlppet canoe county thirty-six years ago,
wnere ne grew -to .mannood on a farm. He graduated In law from the University of Michigan In 1892. He Is a past grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, and has been president of the Lincoln League. His home is in Lar fayette, where he practices law. Mr. Storms is a pleasing public speaker who has long been lending hie efforts to Republican success. His unopposed nomination is an indication of the extent of his popularity. David E. Sherrick, candidate for auditor of State, is a traveling Insurance agent. His home Is In Noblesville. He was an unsuccessful candidate for the nomination four years ago, and as usual, came up from his defeat smiling. He is said never to forget a face or a name. He pledged himself to maintain that careful supervision of financial affairs which has marked the policy of his predecessor. Nat U. Hill, candidate for treasurer of state, is one of the well-known Republicans of southern Indiana. His home is at Bloomington, where he has lived all his life. He is a graduate of Indiana university. He is a successful business man of large Interests and unquestioned probity. He has been a delegate to Republican national conventions and a member of the state central committee. Charles W. Miller, candidate for attorney general, is a well-known lawyer of Goshen. He was born in Floyd county in 1863. He taught school and later attended the University of Michigan, where he graduated in law in 1884. Four years later he became mayor of Goshen, and the youngest municipal chief in the state. He is prominent In the affairs of the Masons and Knights of Pythias. He was formerly a law partner of Judge Francis E. Baker. He attended as a delegate from Indiana the Republican national convention which nominated Harrison for president in 1892. As a lawyer he has a wide and favorable reputation. Robert A. Brown, candidate for clerk of the supreme court, was born in Franklin forty-three years ago. He graduated from Franklin college in 1884, and engaged tn newspaper work. At the time of his election as clerk of the supreme court four years ago he was editor of the Franklin Republican. Fasset A. Cotton, candidate for superintendent of public Instruction, was born at Nineveh, Johnson county, in 1862. Graduating from the Nineveh high school, he became a teacher in 1881, beginning his work in Henry county. He graduated later from Spiceland academy, the State Normal, and Butler university. He • became county superintendent of schools in Henry county and chief deputy to the state superintendent of public instruction. A life-long association with school work fits him peculiarly for the state superintendency. Benjamin F. Johnson, candidate for state statistician, was born in Muskingum county, Ohio, fifty-four years ago. Twenty-five years ago he came to Indiana. He took charge of the Oxford academy, and In 1881 began a ten-years’ term of service as superintendent of schools of Benton county. In 1900 he was elected state statistician. Willis S. Blatchley, the most useful state geologist Indiana has ever had, has held the office since 1894. During his term he has performed service of Inestimable value to the state. He Is forty-two years of age, a native of Connecticut. After his graduation from Indiana university he was connected with the geological surveys of Arkansas and New Mexico, and with the United States fish commission. Judge John H. Gillet, candidate for re-election as judge of the supreme court, is a resident of Hammond, where he achieved distinction as circuit judge during the pendency of the Roby racetrack cases. He is forty years old. He was appointed judge of the supreme court to fill a vacancy by Governor Durbin. His qualifications are unquestioned. Woodfin D. Robinson, W. J. Henley, Utric Z. Wiley, James B. Black, Daniel W. Comstock, and Frank 6. Roby, candidates for re-election as members of the appellate court are all jurists of well-established probity and legal ability. Judge Black is a soldier of the war of the Rebellion, In which he rose to the rank_df lieutenant colonel. It is, on the whole, a young man’s ticket, but yet representative of sound, substantial citizenship, offering a guarantee of solid Influence In national affairs, and of careful, upright, economical administration of the state's business.
“No stronger partnership was ever formed than that of ‘Heart and Hand.’ The result of this partnership is ‘honest labor.’ Through it the wonderful development of our country has come; no avenue of trade but bears its mark, and no walk of life but enjoys its blessing. Forge, field and factory have been dignified by it, and on its broad, strong shoulders the nation demands for its support The children of our workingmen share the benefits of our schools, and their sweet voices gladden homes bought and owned by their fathers. In no other country than this does labor play so strong a part, nor hold so honored a position.’*— Representative Jesse Overstreet.
