i MON. PHILANDER C. KNOX.
Soria venta is proud of Philander Chase Knox. He has demonstrateq
eapacity to perform big things. As a lawyer, as a statesman and as ‘as dip-
lomat he has shone before the eyes of the world and gafned not only credit
to himself but immense credit to the state which prodweed him.
Mr. Knox 1s a native of Fayette county. Shortly. after his graduation
at Mount Union College, Alliance, Ohio, he was admitted to the bar of Alle-
gheny county. In 1876, when a lawyer but less than a year, he was appoint-
ed assistant United States district attorney for the western Pennsylvania
district. His. practice grew rapidly and within a short time he was lookel
upon as a leading lawyer of the western part of the state. Cases of great
importance found Philander C. Knox as chief counsel, and, his success was
such that Htlganta all over the country demanded his service.’
in McKinley's Cabinet.
In 1887 Mr. Knox was elected president of the American Bar Assoeia-
tion. Four years later he was tendered the place of attorney general b -
President Wililam McKinley. After giving the matter great consideratio:
and being compelled to decide between a lucrative law practice and a dut -
he owed his country, he sacepted the great honor and served as legal a’-
viser to the martyr president.
When Colonel Roosevelt became president one of the first thimgs he
did’ was to reappoint Knox as his attorney general and he served till 180 .
when upon the death of the late Senator Quay, the governor appointed hin:
United States senator. In 1905 he was elected for the full term and ro
mained in the senate till President Taft made him secretary. of state.
It was as secretary of state that Philander C. Knox earned for himse!’
an unusual reput~tion for brilliant diplomacy. His negotiations with [oreizn
countries never resulte] in situations that might embarrass the administra
tion in which he served. The ntegrity of his country. he endea
vored to preserve at all time nd never did he deviate from tRat cours

“In the Balkans the orton has

General Sarrail and by Roumania’s
“treason” and answered the question
as follows:
“The situation of our faithful, brave
allics is unshaken. Austria-Hungary
stands together with us on the east-
ern front from Lake Narocz to Trap-
sylvania. The Turks are fighting in
Galiciz. German, Bulgarian and Turk-
troops have defeated the Rou-
manians in Dobrudja. Bulgarian, Ger-
man and Turkish troops have fought
their way to Macedonia.
“The Salonika army has been able
to make only feeble advances. The
Germans, Bulgarians and Turks in
Dobrudja marched te the northward
while our enemies hoped that the Rus-
sians and Roumanians would march
to the southward.
“The aims proclaimed by our ene
mies are becoming increasingly clear
and admit of no misunderstanding.
They are: Lust of conquest and an-
mihilation. -I have spoken in this
house repeatedly about them. It is
proposed to give Constantinople to
Russia; Alsace-Lorraine to France;
the Trentino and Trieste to Italy and
Transylvania to Roumania.
“Germany will not be permitted to

the fire.”

of the administration nor in tense #0
its domestic it is because of
the apparent i.difivience of the admin
istration of President Wilson to the
cause of pure foods and drugs. Dra:
tically all of the abuses which were
injected into the pure food law by the
preceding administrations are still in
force. Benzoate of soda is still re:-
nant. The fumes of burning sulphur
are marching along undisturbed. There
is evidently a lull in the activities of
the administration of the law. A well-
known beverage, declared by the ‘su-
preme court misbranded and amenable
to the food law has not been molested.
No attempt bas been made to enforce
the law in regard to the bleaching of
flour. The repeal of the mixed flowr
law, that splendid safeguard to the
purity of eur bread. has been tacitly
approved by the treasury department.
“Mr. Hughes in his activities on the
supreme court has stood like a stone
wall for the proper administration of
the food law. I believe his election
would see a radical change in the atti-
tude of the government towards pure
food and pure drugs, so vital to the
welfare of our people. For this reason
I sincerely hope that Mr. Hughes may
be chosen as our mext president. .
“I should expect Mr. Hughes as pres-
ident to have the same attitude toward
the pure food and drug law that he had
