IT IS A WAR FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM So He Declares and Finally Intimates that the Day of Separation, tor Us and the Filipinos May Never Come. (By 'ho Associated Press.) Washington, I>. C., May 30.—Decoration Day was observed here today perhaps more generally than ever before. The an nouncement that President Roosevelt would deliver the oration at Arlington brought to that historic city of the dead, j a vast concourse of people, among whom were numbered thousands .of veterans who journeyed to the cemetery to honor the memory of their comrades. At Arlington a national salute was fired at twelve o’clock by the Fourth Bat tery, United States Field Artillery. Music was rendere 1 by the Marine hand and by the memorial choir. Upon arriving at Arlington, the procession marched to the tomb of the unknown. During the decora tion of the torn!) by the special commit tee chosen from the different G. A. R. organizations and auxiliary societies, the Marine band played an appropriate selec tion. The nrooession then broke up and the decoration of graves began. A touch ing feature of the work of decoration was the strewing of flowers over the graves of the Confederate dead who lie buried tit a section of the cemetery. In the meantime a vast crowd had as sembl'd at the amphitheatre where th* servit os were '••ondueted. The familiar strains of ’Nearer. My God to Thee,” by the Marine band, marked, the beginning of the services, which had been most elaborately planned. President Roose velt’s arrival was the signal for an out- burst of applause, which continued for j some time after ho had taken his seat on the platform. After the invocation and the rendition ! of several numbers by the band and choir. E. B. Hay r< ad Lincoln’s Gettys-.f burg address. President Roosevelt so!- | lo ved, and as he arose was again greeted with cheers and the plaudits of the im- ! mense audience, which stretched far out- | side the limits of the amphitheatre. His »’i marks w?“re given the closest attention and h 1 - was frequently interrupted by bursts of applause. President Roosevelt’s Address. Yfter referring to the achievement of j the Federal army in saving the Union, j (he President continued in part as fol lows: “Just at this mono nt the army of the I United States, led by men who served i among you in the great war. Is carrying to completion :> small but neculinrly try ing and difficult war in which is involved not only the honor of the flag but the tri umph of civilization over Trees which stand for the black chaos of savagery and barbarism. “These younger comrades of yours have fought under terrible difficulties and have received terrible provocation from a very • ruel and very treacherous 0001117. Under the- strain of these provocations 1 deeply deplore to say that soup* among ihent 1 have so far forgotten themselves as to I counsel and commit, in retaliation, a. ’.s of cruelty. The fact that for every guilty act committed by one of our troops a Inn- , dred acts of far greater atrocity have been committed by the host)! - natives upon our troops, or upon ’he peaceable , and law-abiding natives who nr; friendly to us, can not be held to excuse any wrongdoer on our side. Determined and unswerving effort must be made, and is being made, to find out every instant, of barbarity on the part of our troops, to punish (nose guiity of it. and to take, if possible, even stronger measures than i have already been taken to minimize or prevent the occurrence of all such in stances in the future. "From time- to time there occur in our country, to the deep and las ing shame, of our people, lynching* earn'd on under eirt umstances of inhuman r:mlt/ and barbarity—a cruelty infinitely worse than any that has ever been committed by our troops in ihe Philippines: worse to the victims, and far more brutalizing to those guilty of it. The men who ff.il to con demn these lynehings. and yet clamor about what has been done in the I’hilip- I inor.. are indeed guilty of neglecting the beam in their own eve whil >-taunting their brother about th r mote in his. These lynehings afford nr no excuse for failure to stou cruelty ip the Philippines. Every effort is being made, and will he mode, in minimize the chances of < ru eltv or orring. "I’.ut keep in mind that these cruellies ill the Philippines have been wholly ex ceptional and have been shamelessly ex aggerated, They afford far less justifica tion for a general condemnation oi our army thin 'hose 'ynehirgs afford for the condemnation >f tin communities in which they have taken place. "in ovrrv community there are people who commit acts of well-nigh iticonceiv- .able horror and baseness. There is not a city in this land which we could not thus condemn if we fixed our eyes purely upon its police record and refused to-look at what it had accomplished for decenty and justice and charity. Vet this is ex actly the attitude which has been tak< n by too many men with reference to our army in the Philippines; and it is an at titude both absurd and cruelly unjust. "The rules of warfare which have been promulgated by the War Department and accepted as the basis of conduct by our troops in the field are ihe rules laid down by Abraham Lincoln when you, niy hear ers, were fighting for the Union. These rules provide, of course, for the just se verity n -pessary in war. The most de structive of all forms of cruelty would be to show weakness where sternness is demanded by iron need. But all cruelty is forbidden, and all harshness beyond v hat is called for by need, The fact really is th.it our warfare in the Phil ippines has been carried on with singu lar hujpanity. f "The warfare that has extended the boundaries of civilization at the expense if barbarism and savagery j has be -n for centuries one of the most potent factors ’n the progress of human ity. Yet from its very nature it has al ways and everywhere been liable'to dark abuses. “It behooves us to keep a vigilant watch ;o prevent these, abuses and to punish those who commit them: but if j because of them we flinch from finishing the task on which tie have entered, we j show ourselves cravens and weaklings, I i nworthy of the sires from whose loins we sprang. There were abuses and to ' spare in the Civil War. Your false I friends then called Grant a ‘butcher’ and j spoke of you who are listening to me as mercenaries, as ‘Lincoln's hirelings.' Your open foes—as in the resolution passed by the Confederate Congress in I October, Vb'2 —accused you, at great length, and with much particularity, of •contemptuous disregard of the usages of civilized war;’ of subjecting women and children to ’banishment, imprisonment, and depth;’ of 'murder,' of ’rapine,' of ‘outrages on women.’ of ’lawless cruel ty,’ ot ’perpetrating atronties which ; would be disgraceful to savages;’ and Abraham Lincoln was singled out for es pecial attack because of bis ‘spirit of bar barous ferocity.’ “Peace and freedom —are there two bet ter objects for which a soldier can fight" j Well, these are precisely the objects for which our soldiers are fighting in the Philippines. The military power is used j to secure peace, in order that it nti v j itself be supplanted by the civil govern -1 rr.cnt. The progress of 'he American arms nimns ‘he abolition if cruelty, tie bringing of peace, and the rule of law and order uYider the civil government. We believe that we can rapidly teach the people of '.he Philippine Islands not only how to opjiy but how to make good : use of their freedom: and with their ■ growing knowledge their growth in self government dtull keen steady pare. When I they have thus shown th«ir capacity for | real freedom by their power of self-gov . rnment, thm, and not till then, will I it be possible to decide whether they are i to exist independently of us or he knit j to us by ties of common friendship and interest. I "Nor. while fully acknowledging our dytlcs to others, need we forget our duty to our own country. The Pacific sea hoard ir as much to us as the Atlantic; as we grow n nower and prosperity so our interests will grow ip that farthest west. No statesman has ;■ right to neglect the interests of our people in the Pacific: interests which are fmjiortant to ill our ' people, but which are of most impor tance to those of our people who have j built populous and thriving States on the western slope of our continent.

Immediately after the memorial exer cises at the amphitheatre, the monument erected to the memory of Colonel Edgar O'Connor, of the Secoiwi Wisconsin ’•egi ment, was unveiled in the presence of a number of his comrades.’ The address o' the occasion was delivered by Rcprc senatative John J.

C„ May 3"—The ward primaries here last night resulted in overwhelming victory f<»r the progressive ticket- In each ward were two factions —for and against Improvements, an tis being opposed to an authorized issue of bonds to establish public improve ments and the (intis succeeding in nomi nating only one out of eight aldermen. Mr. E. M. J’ieken, an “advocate of Itn provements, was the only member of the old board who was renominated. East year the citizens voted by a large majority to issue bonds for improvements and as the sale of bonds we s about to be effected, some opponents got out an in junction to step the sale. The matter has been pending in the Supremo court several months, and if that, tribunal will now dissolve the injunction with an im provement board of aldermen in charge, Greenville will make the greatest y< ar's progress in her history.

THE RALEIGH MALE ACADEME CLOSES Exercise* Were Attended by Many Interested Visitors NORTH CAROLINA HEROES Theme of a Splendid Address Delivered By Mr. J. W. Bailey. HONORS, DSTINC IONS AND MEDALS Masters Joseph E. Pogue, Jr., B. R Lacy, Jr., j and W. E. Thacks on are the Winners of the Handsoiiß Gold M dais For the Past Yeat's Work. j The appreciation and intercut of the I people of Raleigh in the Raieigli Male ! Academy could be seen in th° audience which gathered yesterday morning at t the closing exercises. It is a famous institution whose his- i lory wilt round out its centennial mark this year, and it has nner been more* worthily managed than by Prof. Hugh: Morson and the able teachers who are > his assistants, and the tribute paid Prof. Morson at the close of the exercises by , Rev. T. D. Bratton was a deserved one- 1 The closing evereises were opened with prayer by Rev. W. D. Hubbard, of the Baptist Tabernacle, after which ! a full list of the pupils obtaining lis- ' Cm lions for the past year were read by I’rof. Mcrson. Following this came the address of the day by Mr. J. YU. Bailey, editor of the Biblical Recorder, as alumnus of the school, who delivered a remarkably in- , teresting and eloquent address ‘ North ! Carolina's Heroes.'* Follow ing this address Prof. Morson - announced the names of the successful contestants for the four handsome ued t nis as follows: THE MEDALS AWARDED. The Nesbitt Kendrick Deportment Medal, given as a membership of her son. once a pupil of the school, oy Mrs. . W ,B. Kendrick, to Mr. Henry LI. Thack- j ston. I The General Scholarship Medal, given tby Mr. Morson as a memorial of the three pupils of the school wh> were drowned, to Mr. Joseph E. Pogue, Jr. ; The Mathematicieal Medal, given by , Messrs. Ludwig and Fred Mahler, to Mr. Joseph K Pogue, Jr. | The Latin Medal, given by Mrs- Fray j and Miss Fray as a memorial of Prof. Fray, Mr. Morson's former associate, to Mr. Beaj. It. Lacy, Jr. These medals were presented in a i characteristically nappy speech i v Rev. ' T. D. prat ton. of St- Mary's, who placed the Deportment Medal at the head of , the list in importance, as it meant a I I type of moral courage, and was the pos- I ! siblo attainment of boys who though full I of life and vim, who thought they might I tussle ard even fight could conquer self , anjl with a grim determiitaton he good hoys in school, but not the namby-pamby . goody-goody bov kind. ; 'then came an unexpected prize. It was a five doliar cold piece, and Dr. j Bratton, in presenting it said that an unknown friend of the Academy had of ! sered it for the boy winning two medals, and under these conditions he presented it to Mr. Jos. E- Pogue. Jr. Prof. Morson next spoke briefly of the encouragement he felt in the,presence of the friends of the school and from the patronage accorded hint the past year, j He also spoke of the able assistance j ret dered him by Messrs. Hanff and Al i ion. of the faculty. | As he concluded Dr. Bratton arose, and for himself and other patrons made a most appreciative talk to Prof. Mor- ; son. telling of bis appreciation of the in- ‘ struction given his sons, and es the care j and pains exercised by Prof. Morson. i Following this th" benediction was pro nounced by Rev. Dr. Thos. E. Skinner. j MR. J. TV. BATLEY’S ADDRESS. | Being introduced Mr Bailey began his 1 address by referring to the various teachers under whose instruction hi* had been Usained, and said that of all the most profound impression had been made on him by Mrs- McDonald. Mr. YV. B. Savage, Prof. Royail. of YVake Forest, and Prof Hugh Morson. the last being perhaps the greatest of all. At this the audience warmly applauded. Entering upon his subject, ‘North Carolina and Her Heroes,” h*> said that all heroes were an inspiration and that a nation's greatness often came from its heroes and the inspiration of their lives and deeds, illustrated by the influence of I the lives of Abraham- Isaac and Jacob among the Hebrew boys, and toijay in the admiration for King Edward in England, who ontv stood in the shadow of the hero worship of King Alfred. ' “The hero has a vast place in the niak- : ing of a people,“ said he, “and the boy or sir! having no' hero lo charm them, is , of all people the most hopeless*" Here he stated Ifkit lie would iike to I ask the boys or the audlenct to no in 1 a I North Carolina hero, or a list of heroes who were the epitqpie of ill good in the I State, one man. or set of men whose lives were an inspiration and a glory, whoso, names are held in griat"st reverence, and whose deeds thrilled the heart. Such PRICK FIVE CENTS men as might be the standard of honor in all the ages. • If. ’ said he, “should you not b> colonial heroes and of the—heroes of the Revolution who builded for us tie foundation of a great State, and oi a lar ger liberty, and of the heroes who.built fer us our public school system, men like Murphy and Wiley and Mangum and Davie and Buncombe, who lived and moved when a here spirit was dominant. “These men." said he. “were typical of hundreds who built the bulwark- of a great State.” ‘'Then what of the heroes of tile Civil War," he exclaimed. “It is not neces sary to ask you of tie-m for you know. Y'ot surpassing even the valor of the men who led at Gettysburg and on t tany a bold enerimsoni d with their own Dlood. was the valor of the nun who came back, and looking over their desolated fields, made an inventory of their poverty and turning their faces to the future have hand"d down to you and me a State so great and so free as North Carolina. " “Y’ou can find in yonder monument. ’ he said, pointing towards the eapitoi wbere stands the silent and majectie statue of Y'ancc, “and in yonder eenv tery the stories of heroes typical of these times, but there is a new South for us to rejoice in, a. growing prosperity, a new political ’iberty and a Stat" over : which peace broods." i “1 glory jr. the new South." he cried, I "hut 1 glory too in remembering that the nun who defended -the ‘Old South' are the men -.ho have nkfV' th" New' South.’’’ At this there was g:%. np j pis use. ‘ If they who fell on the battlefield?* * were heroes, no less then are our fathers heroes who fought and returned to their homes to make this “New South" and this new age a happy' and glorious one. j "I have not named any of our heroes, ' but I would be unfaithful if I did not. There is no one great name, like a bril liant star, standing out in boi l relief, for we are democratic, in heroes and have I myi iads of them, we have had in every , generation since this country was settled men of heroic mould, our homes are filled with them. “To mention one hero in North Caro lina is not an injustice to the others, for they are typical of the people There is a difference between an ideal and a i typical hero, for the latter represents the ' great mass, while the ideal stands alone, and North Carolina rejoices in many I typical heroes.” | Then ihe speaker with appropriate ! comments upon the great work of eaeli enumerated many of those whose lives he considered as being typically heroic, among them Lawson, who lost his life among the Indians, making a map of the . State: Col. Mitchell, the hero of Fort j Barnwell; Roger Bacon and YY’in. Drum mend in the contest with the Indians; Paul Palmer, who suffered imprisonment at New Bern for preaching the gospel: | Maynard, who slow the pirate Black Heard on his own ship; Waddell and Ashe, who without disguise resisted the l British tax on tea and lead the fight at Moore's Creek Bridge, a place of which Senator Hoaor. great scholar as he is. recently expressed his ignorance. It is j time." the speaker said, “for us to teach New England that North Carolinians were battlim; for freedom before New Dryland began. Continuing his list he spoke of Cas well. Alexander. Brevard, Davie, Nash and Buncombe, of the Revolutionary ! Hardy Murphy at Stoney Point: Otway Burns the bold privateer in the war of 1812: Macon. Yancey. Calvin YY'iley and Murphy, Pettigrew. Pender* Grimes, Prof. Mitchell who lost his life on our lofty peak, and in the reconstruction days, Zeb Y’ancc, Josiah Turner. Ran dolph Shot well. To these two latter he pail splendid tributes, saying of Josiah Turner that he lived too long, for after he had defended his Slate with his pen and i Rimes with his good right hand, it was only to die an almost forgotten man, thoou-h he v, as aminated*by the spirit of one who loved his State w itH his whole heart and never turned in f- :>r from the face of man Os Randolph Shot well he said it was a most pathetic sight to see him, who stood firm for his fellow men who had been united with him in a strange but. needed band, led shackled through the streets because h would not reveal their names. 1 "There is one other 11,1111- closely con nected with this school, whose life comes within the list of those who were typical heroes I am not of those who say he ! simply gave his lfe in battle as did for Worth liagley was a hero, (great applause). He gave Ills life as a hero and his life and death stand as a | n ark in the nation's history. He lived well and h" died brav- ly in lbs count ry*h defence.
