NAVAL OFFICERS
Make Some Suggestions Concerning
Official Advancement

NEW YORK, Dec. 29--In view of the dis
cussion over promotion in the navy for mer-
itorious service during the late war, the
following plan, which has just been received
from Manila, and evidently represents the
views of large number of the officers serv-
ing under Admiral Dewey, will prove inter-
esting:
when men are recommended for promo
tion for Conspicuous and meritorious con-
duct in BATTLE their rewards should be lib
eral, their benefits generous but not at the
expense of other people, causing jealousies
and heart-burns.
''When an officer is advanced for meritor-
ious conduct in battle: First-Let him be-
come an additional number, both in his own
grade andst throughout his naval career Sec
ond-Let him receive, at all times, the high
+ est pay Of that grade. Third-When retired
let him be retired with the rank and retired
pay Of the next higher grade.
'"rhen, instead Of retarding the promotion
Of any one, he would benefit all below him by
giving them number.
n "He would take nothing from those he
ghassed over but would remain additional
up.il he retired, always a marked man and
never interfering with any ones promotion.
when an additional man reaches the
head of list, let him be promoted with
and at the same time as the man next above
him.
''The highest pay of his grade would be a
suitable reward. If he is at sea it would be
nothing, but on shore he could never be pun
tshed with waiting orders"

A MEMORIAL TABLET
To Grace a Turret Of the Battleship
Illinois

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Abraham Lincoln
in bas relief on tablet of bronze may
adorn the turret of the battleship Illinois
Former Congressman George e. Adams has
written to Governor Tanner asking him to
recommend to the Legislature an apropra-
ton for a memorial tablet of that design.
Besides the figure of the martyred Presi-
dent, Mr.. Adams suggests that an inscrip-
ton be placed below with extracts from
Lincoln's Gettysburg speech.
Many of the States have appropriated
money for services or adornments of a
memorial nature for the battleships that
bear their names. Iowa and Indiana fur
nished silver services for the floating forts
that bear their names, and the Legislature
of Massachusetts, has appropriated money
for a bronze tablet for the battleship OF
that name. Mr.. Adams has written a let
ter to the Massachusetts, executive asking
for description of the tablet.
He thinks that as the citizens of Illinois
are to contribute silver service for the
battleship the commonwealth should furnish
something in the nature of popular me-
mortal. The tablet would be placed on
ne, forward turrets under the, guns in q
place where it would be as prominent as
