Sustained by Precedent.

Mr.. McKinley's choice of civ
ilian to succeed Alger as secretary
of war is supported by a long line
of precedents. The appointment
of purely military man to the
post has been an infrequent pract-
ice in the history of our govern
ment.
The rule to appoint lawyer to
the position has been followed in
a majority of instances. Still, in
Washington's incumbency Gener-
al Henry Knox was secretary of
war, Pickering and McHenry,
soldiers of the Revolutionary war,
were his successors, The secretar-
les in 1912 were William Eustis.
who had been a surgeon, and VIM.
Armstrong, who had reached the
rank of brigadier general.
During the war with Mexico
William l.. Marcy, a lawyer of
great ability, held the post, while
Edwin NJ. Stanton, by many con
sidered the most vigorous war sec
retary the country ever had, oc-
cupied the important position dur
ing the civil war
Several officers who have won
distinction in military operations
have held the portfolio since 1865,
the number including such names
ms Grant, Schofeld, Rawlins, Sher-
man and Belknap. All together
there have been fifty secretaries of
war. and of these considerably less
than one-half have had actual ex-
perience in organizing armies or
in any form of tactics.

SYMPATHY FOR VICTOR.

In the great disaster that has
visited Victor that city has the
sympathy of surrounding towns
and of the entire state As yet she
has made no call for assistance
from any points outside of the
Cripple Creek district, but should
she find it necessary to do so every
Colorado city and town would re-
spond with eager readiness and a
hearty good will.
But it is not the death of Victor
that is causing this wave of SYM
pathy-it is the travail of her
birth. Her new existence begins
in suffering, but she will be nour-
ished by strong western determin-
alton. and by the exercise of Colo
RADIO push and vigor she will de-
velop into healthy, substantial
and permanent city that viii be
the pride of the Cripple Greek
gold belt.
