Show PLES HADE FOR UNCLE SAM'S BABY College Boys Urged to Help Solve Philippine ; Problem. WINCHESTER. Ky., May 30. In an address ad-dress to the graduating class of the Kentucky Ken-tucky Wesleyan college here yesterday. Secretary of the Treasury Shaw told this parable about the-Philippines: ' "If you please, I will represent Uncle Sain for a little while. I have a neighbor that has caused .me trouble for years. One morning 1 say to my family, I am going across the way and settle that trouble, and my family say go. I settle the disturbance, but when I come back I have a little baby In my arms. I wish I had never seen It. "1 call my family around me and say there will be no further trouble, but what am I to do with this baby? Their opinions differ. To keep and educate him seems the only thing to do and when he is grown we can keep him or start him for himself as seems best. It will cost us something, but the good God has not given us all this for ourselves alone. It will be a wonderful advantage for him, and I say all right, and the first time I take him he begins to yell and kick and squall and bite. Spank, spank, spank. 'The little fellow is well satisfied now. The other day when I recalled his nurse. Judge Taft, ne looked up and cried. I don't know what the little boy Is going to do, I dare not write a prediction and sign It, but I know you boys: I ksow that as long as the American people have red corpuscle In their blood, so long as they love equity. Justice and liberty, so. long will they help them (the Filipinos)." |
