BT WTT.i.lftW Bi itlClf ARD WIL.MINUTUH. K. C. SXTUEOAf JaOBHIKG. NOV. 16 POLICIES FORESHADOWED. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, delivered an address a few nights ago before the Middlesex Club, in Boston, the main points and sub stance of which are thus given by wire: "The great Republic which Presi dent McKinley loved and to which he gave his life still marches on, even as he would have it, and we turn from the dead to the Urine. A deep grati tude is ours that his successor was not only his associate but his friend, and that the policies and purposes of Pres ident McKinley are the policies and purposes of President Roosevelt. They thought alike as to all great pub lie questions, and alike they are rep resentatives of the principles of the Republican party and of the truest and best American ideals and beliefs." "Senator Lodge made an argument for general reciprocity in commercial relations. " To this subject,' he said, it is cer tain that anxious consideration will be given to President Roosevelt and by Congress at the ensuing session. Whether it will be deemed best to put this policy into execution by means of some general legislation equivalent to a reciprocal arrangement with all toe nations of the earth, or by a series of separate treaties, it is as yet too early to say. "He said he considered the reciproc ity with Cuba as first and most impor tant for political as well as economi cal reasons. Then he discussed the reciprocity treaties now pending in the 8enate and concluded this part of his remarks by saying : " 'Lastly, we come to the treaty with France, which is more important economically than all the other trea ties put together. I should like to see a treaty made with France. It is a country with which I would fain strengthen our good relations.' "He advocated legislation which would put the American merchant marine on an equality with that of oiner countries ana ine cuuaing oi a navy. The senator continued : "The whole country, I think, fa vors the building of an isthmian canal. I believe, from what little I know, that we snail nave a treaty with England at the coming session which will re move, honorably for both nations. whatever obstacles now exist to the bufldittg of the canal. If such a treaty is sa omitted to us by the President there is no more pressing duty than its immediate rauncauon, to be followed at once by the passrge of the Canal bill. "There is one other condition that is - essential to the commerce and indus trial development of the United States, wnien in me last nve years has en A. a 1 . isrea m new epocn, ana mat is the maintenance of peace. There is no nation in the world to which peace is so important as it is to the United 8tates in order to secure ample scope for the-great progress we are making. We are in good relations now witn ail the world, and it will be. I am sure, the effort of President Roosevelt, as it was of President Mc Kinley, to maintain these good rela tions. "There is only one point of danger. and to assure peace we must protect ourselves in that direction. Firmlv but quietly the Monroe Doctrine must be rigidly upheld. The entrance of any great European power into the - American hemisphere, either by the ' acquisition of territory or the estab lishment or forts and naval stations. would be the instant menace of the peace we are so anxious to maintain. "The best insurance and the best guarantee of peace are in the posses won oi a navy so sironar tnat no na -tion of the world would be tempted to mmck us. uompieie preparation is the surest protection against war and war is what we wish to avoid, not on ly morally but economically, in every uonoraoie way." Senator Lodge is one of the lead ing Senators, and a man of force in the Senate, which would entitle his views to consideration; but he is more than that, he is an intimate friend of the President, and one of his trusted and confidential conn sailors. He and Senator Quay were his Strongest supporters for the nomination for the vice presidency, ana finally forced Hanna to yield, ihe relations he, therefore, holds with the President, give special in terest to his pnblio declarations as far as they bear on public policies, and they may in a great measure be looked upon as foreshadowing the policies which the President will favor, as the public utterances of Senator Hanna and Gen. Grosvenor were, on account of the close rela tionship between them and Presi dent McKinley, looked upon as fore shadowing the policies he favored. There is much of this speech with which there will be pretty general agreement "throughout the country. There will be pretty general agree ment on the question of reciprocity the right kind of reciprocity not a one-sided, ug-handled scheme, jmi, up as a ouna to tana revision and which would give the protected interests practically as mnch control and monopoly of the home market as they haTe now. Bnt while talking and favoring reciprocity the Bepub- 1" . ucan statesmen are at sea as to what kind of reciprocity they will favor, whether reciprocity on general prin i , uijubs, or m particular cases pro vided for by treaty with countries whose trade we wish to cultivate, while some are working to dodge the question by turning the whole busi ness over to the President and vest ing him with authority to deal with the question with each nation re spectively in accordance with his judgment, reducing duties in special cases "where in his opinion that i aavisabie as a means of promoting trade.' That's the course, we think, that Senator Lodge favora, as the short est way but of the tangle that a re ciprocity discuasldnxnight cause, and T 4 way for dodging8nch tariff re Tiaion as substantial reciprocity would necessitate. The people of this country are in favor.of .measures to promote the estebhshmentof a merchant marine, but they are not in faV0r of a sub. sidy grab, which would go into the pockets of few Schemers and leave the country without the kind, of a merchant marine that would ensure the purpose for which such a marine is desired. The people are not in favor of levying that $9,000,000 a year, -or any : other sum, - to help ship owners to pay the expenses of running ships, without any assu rance that they would get better service or lower transportation rates than they do now, nor to put money into the coffers of ship bnilders who now have more work than " their yards can turn out, all of which could be avoided by removing the antiquated restrictions and permit ting American capitalists who de sire to engage in the ocean carrying business to buy their ships where they please and run them under their own flag, as the seafarers of other nations do. It isn't a ques tion of a merchant marine; there is no difference of opinion as to the desirability of that; it is only a question of how to get it, whether to get it honestly, without taxing the people unnecessarily, or by rob bing the people of millions for a fictitious merchant marine and put ting those millions into the pockets of schemers who may have a pull on the party leaders and law makers. The people are in favor of a navy strong enough to command the re spect of other naval powers and to protect our interests at home and abroad. The fact that other lead ing maritime nations are constantly adding to their fleets, necessitates the strengthening of our navy, and no one will object to that if the work be carried on within reasona ble bounds. ( Senator Lodge is an expansonist on general principles and also takes an expansion view of the Monroe doctrine which he stretches to its fullest possible limit, and makes it bar out not only attempts to in fringe on the territorial possessions of the Republics South of us. 1 i. 1 , m ' . out aiso colonies rxom other conn' tries and concessions granting the right to European countries to own coaling stations on this hemisphere. This is going considerably further than the drafters of the Monroe Doctrine contemplated, especially in view of the fact that this Govern jnent has virtually nullified the Monroe Doctrine by crossing over to the other hemisphere, taking forcible possession of territory, and establishing fortified coaling stations . . . . - thousands of miles from our own coasts. Leaving out of question the coal ing stations, which in these, days of commerce by steam are a necessity, and to which other nations do not object, when we took forcible pos session of foreign territory and de- i j vuureu our supremacy over it, we probably nullified the Monroe Doc trine and gave other countries ground to claim that they have as much right to carry out their plans I on this hemisphere as this n,ntr - vcMii. wu its uisiu tin Ln h Eastern hemisphere.

TEE VETXXAXS PAS3ESG AW AT The veterans whotook part en both sides in the war between the States are passing away. It will not be many years before the rear guard of these great armies will have cross ed the river, and they, with the stirring events in which they played such prominent parts, will figure only on the historic page. The fol lowing official table shows how the Union veterans have passed away since Jnne 30, 1895. It is from the report of the Adjutant General of the G. A.

A generation has passed since the war and the living veterans are pretty well ad vanced in years now, so that we may naturally expect a larger mor tality among them. A somewhat remarkable thing in this connection, however, is that notwithstanding the large decrease I n ke nnmb of veterans, the pen- a i i I Blon T0U continues no grow ana is now larger than it ever was, which might lead to the inquiry, "where do all the pensioners come from?"

URBAN POULTRY RAISING. DMBowItleo Tlutt Beset tk. Fi lr Ik New York City. Few of those interested in the exhibi tion of poultry and pigeons have any idea of the (amber of fancy birds that are hatched and raised right in New York. Not all fanciers of fine pigeons and poultry can find the time or money to go into the country and start a small farm to breed and raise their pets, and bo they make the best of their sur roundings. In the upper part of the. city there are some dozens of poultry yards where prize winners at the show were reared. More than one fancier has converted his back yard into a poultry farm, where under the cover of wire netting the birds do almost as well as if in the country with ample room and breath ing space. "We have to be very careful in .han dling the cocks, or they will be com plained of as nuisances," explained one of these up town fanciers. "Before the upper west side was built up I had one of the best amateur collections of poul try and pigeons in the state, ut neigh bors crowded closer" to me, and com- plaints began to come in about my birds. To keep on a friendly footing with my neighbors 1 tried various ways of suppressing the early morning enthusiasm of the cocks, I kept them In dark coops until I got up in the morning, but they would crow in spite of this, and the muffled noises sounded even worse than the unobstructed vari ety. J believe a rooster can tell when it is daylight If shut up in the darkest place in the world. "I tried next to shut them up In the cellar, driving them in there every night and closing the doors and win dows. Even this was not sufficient un til I padded the windows so that the sound could not escape. In that way I have succeeded in the past few years in keeping my fancy poultry without annoying the neighbors." Down town there are several incuba tor companies that make it a business to hatch eggs in their establishments for the benefit of their customers. Sev eral incubators are kept full of eggs all the time, and great numbers of young chicks are hatched every week. These are allowed to run at large in the win dows for a week or two or until they are sold. There are several dozen pigeon lofts in different parts of the city. Some fan cy birds are raised in these city lofts, and they invariably find their way Into the annual show at Madison Square Garden. Nearly all the lofts are on the top of private houses or apartment houses. If liberally fed on the roof of their own "house, they will always re turn nome at night, and the breeders have little dlflJculty in keeping them. There is no danger from irresponsible gunners or from rats and mice, so that the mortality among the city pi geons is really less than in the country. m ine country the young squabs are invariably annoyed by rats and mice and even by owjs and other night birds. In the summer time night birds of prey are attracted to the city by the pigeon lofts, and quite a number can be seen hovering over the roofs of houses sfter dark. ; "I should say that if the census of the pigeons kept In New York could be taken today there would be found a thousand or two," said one of the oreeaers. "i have definite knowledge oj su ainerent lorts of 20 to 50 pigeons I re are many I tav-" uu 4 suppose mere are many more. Most of these, pigeons are the common kinds, with a few fancy tum blers, fantails and carriers. There are a number of expert fanciers with their lofts In the city, and they raise some of the finest birds found at the exhibi tions." New York Post eantt T . ror om vuir TMn Maa.
