The Naval Personnel Bill.
or of The Evening Star.

io tue EultOf OF Inc Evening Star:
The conference committee on the navy
personnel bill has made the following
amendment to section 13, pp IL, II Un re
ray):
And provided further, that nothing in
this act shall operate TO increase =
the pay of any officer now on the retired
list of the navy.
And said report is TO be submitted at the
first opportunity-today probably. This is.
We think great and manifest wrong The
seniors of the navy, those who have borne
the burden and heat of the day." and who
in their declining years most need are rude
ly cast out, while the younger men, both
now and when they come to retire, are to
get the army 0ncreasedD pay, both active
and retired pay,
The strange anomaly will soon appear of
younger officers on the retired list receiv-
ing higher pay than our veteran officers of
the navy and of precisely same rank Aside
from being absurdly unfair and unjust it
is distinctly and specifically violative of one
of the main principles of this BILL for which
the other officers have so long fought and
worked-equaiity- of army and navy pay
grade for grade. Why should retired army
and marine officers be paid higher than re-
tired naval officers? Can any one say?
1t is to be hoped that one or both houses
will reject this clearly unjust feature of the
conference committees report and remand
fresh committee. ANY officer now on the
retired list" Could anything be more cru
ely unfair and unjust than these words.

itorious veteran officers? VETERAN

Constituting the Declaration of I,de-
pcndence,


To the Editor of The Evening Star:
If the verdict of those who are at nresent
SO zealously constituting the Declaration of
Independence is correct, the revision of the
school histories of the United States is an
imperative duty, for all of them, in the
light of recent philosophy, abound too
richly in panegyric of those who sacrificed
and died in support and defense of the
maxfms-the "glittering generalities'' of
that erstwhile sacred document II these
recent construers are to be believed. those
who drafted that document were the foul
est hypocrltCS and would have repelled
with disgust an intimation' that they were
sincere In heir manifestoes about the
Just powers of government derived from
the consent of the governed" They were
IN hne, according to present day doctrin-
aires, seihsh political mountebanks who
exploited the aspirations of a people i'm
the interest of their sordid ambitions All
OF their boaSted patriotism and love of
freedom and belief in the rights of man,
winch the American youth has hitherto
read with holy zeal and on certain anniver-
sary occasions has been taught to regard
with patriotic piety, amounts to nothing
more than legendary nonsense mere
amusement Tor the nursery and school
room.
Such, at least, Rev A. S. Fiske would
have us believe. If the doctrine of the
equality of man in its political and social
y.
set up in the name of the Christ and those
who attend them may as well be cast down
and consigned to the lumber room of anti
quated superstitions. Certainly, the creed
or religion which with aristocratic scorn
pokes fun at the "wretched brat of the
slave mother and denies even to such an
one the right on earth ito life liberty and
the pursuit of happiness is not a fit guide
another glcbe.
If the justification of our new policy-ex-
pansion, Imperialism or whatever its name
is TO be based upon the renunciation of
the doctrine of the consent OF the gov
erned' or the equality of man" before the
law and in society, or the mischievous
constituting of them, ii were better not to
justify it at all.
If the new doctrine of humanity is what
the scorners of so-caied weak races rep
resent ii to be. il hes no part in or relation
to the parable of The Good Samaritan -
Perhaps, however, it is not intended that
1t should have. The doctrine in its present
bearing is peculiarly an Anglo-Saxon con-
ceptfon which brooks not any Good Samar-
itan namby-DambyiSm.
DR.. F'iske may be correct in asserting that
"kiplings The White Mans Burden
strikes the keynote of Americas obligation
today and proclaims him poet of human
fty." but it is to be hoped that THE White
Mans Burden will not involve any nice
sophomore constituting of the Declaration
of Independence in order to take advan-
tage of those who are at least physically
weak, whose reply to the poet of hu-
manity" in such an event might properly
be:
pile on the brown mans burden,
And If his cry be sore,
That surely need not irk you
Ye've driven slaves before.
Seize on his ports and pastures,
The fields his people tread:
Go make from them your living
And mark. them with his dead"

change the name of AZ street to John Mar

m:ssioners to Senator Mcmillan, chairman
of the Senate District committee. The Com

to call the street John Marshall street be-
cause the name indicates nothing to a per-
son unfamiliar with the location of the
thoroughfare. and furthermore because the
name Is composed of two parts sThe

About o'clock last night young man
entered the house of Mrs. Conley, on 9th
street, and walked off with the family al
bum. An outcry was made and Policeman
Sullivan arrested Stephen McLane on sus-
picion that he had committed the theft.

Bible. and thought had gotten religion
very suddenly
When arrested last night McLane told the
police that he was, from Anacostia, and
later he said he was from Rhode Island.
Just before he was arrested the young
man met some colored boys and told them
he wanted to sell 50 book for cents.
I'm volunteer" he tod one of the
boys land want money for car fare
Upon the refusal of the boys to advance
him the money he threateningly picked up
brick, and they ran away.
McLane declared he was innocent of the
charge. but as the circumstances were
against him he was fined $40. with the al
tentative of spending thirty days in prison.

A Confusion of Bismarcks.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Prince Herbert Bismarck delivered, as
will be remembered. on the occasion of the
great debate in the German reichstag as
TO the relations between the Fatherland
and the United States. a speech in which
he expressed himself, according to Berlin
cablegrams, in such fattering terms on
America and the Americans that political
wiseacres On both sides of the Atlantic
haStened to the conclusion that the an
pearance of the prince in the reichstag
foreshadowed his re-entrance into the field
of diplomacy and his appointment to the
Washington ambassadorshlp. In view of
these eulogies of Price Herberts speech
1t is somewhat strange that the parliament
tary reports of the newspapers just arrived
from Germany do not bear out the cable
message. For instance, none of the follow
ing sentences was contained IN the cable
account of his speech: Why Prince Her.
bert exclaimed, should We become excited
when, indeed, every A B G scholar must
see that we are in the right. Either the
Saratoga agreement remains in force, in
which case We must get the most favored
nation privileges from the Americans under
all circumstances. or the American inter
pratatlon prevails, but, then, a uniform
treatment must take place. refer to a
speech delivered by the former imperial
chancellor, Prince Bismarck, in 1854 on
our relations with America, when he de-
clared it should never be said that meas
ures of retaliation might not be recurred
to. The liberty Of action of the government
would be paralyZad by such attitude" The
reference to Frederick the Greats recogni-
tion of American independence and Ameri-
can protection Of Germans during the siege
OF Paris was made moreover by Prince
bismarck father and not by Prince Bis
marck son, who simply quoted it as part
OF his fathers speech. If Prince Herbet
appears today in the light of ona of the
mGst enthusiastic friends of the United
states this is chiefly due to a misquotation
of his speech, in which the sayings of the
Grand Old Man of Germany were most
ohngingly attributed to him. TECTON
