he described him a* a "wizar‘ and
made sport of Mr Aldrich’s suzgestion

Whether Mr Daniel was indulging in

so closely united that it seemed almost
impossible to make a separaono the
two—as It had to be made under our
constitution—has been settled fairly

taste or Injustice exists on either side
with respect to those questions."
In conclusion the President said he
ought to talk about Champlain. but
expressed the hope that what he had
said about the Philippines would have
some application to the thought* of the
morning.
Cardinal Gibbons addressed the
gathering briefly. He indorsed what
the President had said about religious
liberty as true and expressed a pro-
found gratitude for the presence of
the President governor, but said he did
not wish to impose on them by making
a speech. He expressed the opinion
that after the week of speechmaktng
the Presidentavoirdupois "would not
be quite so much as It is now.”

•oft contrast to the brilliant spectacle
presented by the foreigners. The five
regiments first were drawn up in regi-
mental front across the wide-spreading
parade ground of the barracks opposite
the President’s reviewing stand. Back
of the soldiers lay the placid waters
i of the lake above which a conopy of
I cloudless blue sky, and far away over
I the Vermont hilis towered the peaks
of the Green mountains.
The speechmaking and exercises at
the stand had "been completed and the
sun was fast slipping down the north-
wrestern horizon when the bugles be-
gan th* stirring noteg of "Assembly."
। Almost in an Instant the ragged
fringe of soldiers was transformed into
। a rigid line which stretched from one
I end of the vast parade ground to the
' other.

facing the flag with lifted hate As
the big ensign neared the ground, the
three colorbearers gathered around

The flag is never by anv circumstances

I came the review. Governor Hughes

while he believed an enlargement of
central authority might be necessary,
| he had an abiding faith in the consti-

I of the states. The subject assigned
him was "The United State*.''

“Governor Hughes and X are going to

Dbeches at each other,” said the_Pres!-
dent by way of Introduction, and ex-
pressing our opinion of each other.
Governor Hughe* needs no practice, but
I must have a little. I would be with-
out that which makes a man if I did
not appreciate to the full the kindly
words of your distinguished governor
and if I did not cougratulate the state
of New York on having a govcrnor who
represents the highest ideals. One 1*
almost carried off his feet befcre such
an audience. There is something in the
atmosphere that suggests a flying ma-
ehine, a* if you were all so full of joy
that that element in you raises you up.
and that is the way you ought to be.
and I congratulate you that such is the
feeling.
“The combination of work and pleas-
ure, the cultivation of health on the one
hand and intellect on the other, and of
religious faith above all—all under
such helpful surroundings, are calcu-
lated to make everyone enthuajastic. I
share that enthusfasm to the fullest.
“I am not a Catholic, but I have had
in the last ten years a great deal to do
with the Catholic church. My lot did
not carry me Into parts of the world
that made me as familiar with the
French explorer*, the French teachers
of civilization, like Champlain, a* It did

came from Spain—into the Philippines,
where the same interest that carried
Champlain here and that same influ-
ence that controlled him. controlled
men equally brave. Legaspt, who came
out to the Philippines with four or five
Augustinian monks, converted to Chris-
tianity that entire archipelago now
having some 7,000.000 or 8,000 000 sotis
and then perhaps 800,000—-the ony
community of people in the Orient as a
people who are Christians.
More Tolerant of Religion.
"I think we are reaching a point
where we are much more tolerant of re-
ligion than in the past, and we are giv-
ing justice where Justice ought to be
given. We are no longer cronsing the
narrow passages that come from de-
nominational bigotry and we are able to
recognise in the past those great heroes
in religion and Christian faith and ap-
preciate the virtues that they exhibited
and follow the examples that they have
set for us.
"Religious tolerance is rather a mod-
ern invention. Those of us of Puritan
ancestry have been apt to think that
we were the Inventor* of religious tol-
erance. Well, as a matter of fact, we
were in favor, If I can apeak for Puri-
tan ancestry, of having a right to wor-
ship God as We pleased and have every-
body worship God in th* same way. But
we have worked that out now and
there has been a great change. I am
sure, and it is my belief the cardinal
will agree with me, even in the last
twentyflye years.
Secures for Galventon Risht of Havg
New Tribunal.
Washington. July T.--- (Special.)—
Senator Bailey made, a vigorous de-1
fense today of the finance committee’s
amendment creating a customs court
The amendment subsequently was
adopted by a vote of 49 to 27. EIght
Democrats voted in the affirmative as
follow*: Ba)ley Bacon. Bankhead. Foe- i
ter. Money. Newlands. Simmons and
Taylor.
The burden of Senator Bailey’s oon-
tention was that the proposed customs
court was necessary to expedite the
adjudication of sutts brought against
the government as the United State* j
supreme court now was taxed beyond
Its Capacity.
Another point urged by Senator Bai-
ley was that there should be no appeal
from the custom* court but its find-
ings should be final. He did not think
the supreme court should be called on
to decide any question not involving a
constitutional principle. Senator Hal-
ley was speaking trectly in answer tv
an argument advanced by Senator
Cummins to the effect that the su-
