1t is His Wish 10 Make the VIC

Possible.
THE SENATOR IS CONFIDENT

Senator Thomas S. Martin is still in the
city. He is at Murphys Hotel. A num-
Der Of friends called TO see him yester-
day. Last night Hon. J. Aston Cabell
and Secretary of the Commonwealth Jo-
seph T. Lawless paid their respects to
him.
Congressman W. A. Jones left yesterday
morning for New York. He went away
without having consented TO become
candidate for the Senate. In fact, he
stated that he would positively not run.
Mr.. Jones position is said 10 be some
what a peculiar one. He is exceedingly
anxious for some plans 10 be devised
whereby the people may express their
choice Of candidates for the United States
Senate He Is not a candidate. and does
not expect to be. 1t is true. that condi-
tons may arise that will make Mr.. Jones
the logical candidate for the nomination
against Mr.. Martin. bur Mr. Jones is not
yet convinced that he is the man to
make the fight.
MR.. MONTAGUE.
Mr. Jones is said 10 want Attorney
General Montague to run. Mr.. Montague
has refused up to this time TO do so. He
IS fond OF his profession, and his law
practice keeps him busy. He is one Of
the most promising young men In the
state. There is hardly any one In VIZ
ginia who possesses more magnetism. Mr..

and he knows IL. But he Is young In

too fast
MR.. MARTINS POSITION.
Mr.. Martin is Just as confident as
man can be Of success. He is not given
20 Dragging. On the contrary he tells his
friends and supporters TO work in season
and out Of season. He is fully convinced
that he will be reelected 70 the Senate.
and he wants 10 make tho victory as
complete as possible.

Mr. Martin will not say as much 10 the
newspaper men for he will not talk for
publication. But in his rooms, where
the trusted friends are assembled. he ex-
presses himself as well pleased with the
prospects.

"REMEMBER THE MAINE"
Used This Motto on the
Warships.

Capt. Sigsbee. writing Of the destruc-
ton of his battleship, denies that IRE
member the Maine!" was used as a
motto by the navy in the late war with
Spain. He also indicates perfectly
proper use Of the phrase by patriotic
Americans. He says:
1--WE have heard much of the motto:
Remember the Maine II we are
satisfied that the Maine was blown up
from the outside we have a right to
remember her with Indignation; but
without more conclusive evidence than
we now have, We are not right if we
charge criminality to persons. There
fore | conceive that the motto: Re
member the Maine used as a war cry
would not hnve been justiiable.
should like to make the point here, as
have made il elsewhere, that this
great and free country, with It's educa-
ton, good intention and universe
moral influence, may 60 to war to pun
ish, but not to revenge. Improperly
applied, the motto: Remember the
Maine savors too much of revenge
TOO much Of evil for evil; but it may
be used in an entirely worthy sense.
During the recent war with Spain
about IS men were killed and wounded
in the United States navy. Only Is
were killed. On board the Maine 254
men were killed outright and others
died later-more than II times as many
as were killed in the United State
navy by the Spanish land and naval
forces during the entire war. In the
way that the men of the Maine Gied
and suffered there was enough Of the
heroic to provide sound foundation
for the motto: Remember the Maine.
Let me dismiss the prevailing impress
sion that this motto was used in the
United States navy, in the recent war,
as n battle-signal. No United States
naval vessel has entered into action
flying the signal: Remember the
Maine | am glad that it can be so
stated; yet one may excuse many mis-
taken expressions Of the heat of ac-
tion."
1t may be said on the authority of
Capt. John r. Bartlett. during the war
chief intelligence officer of the navy:
"The signal, Remember the Maine,
has never been displayed on United
States man-of-war or by the army or
navy. with one exception. A signal
quartermaster ian enlisted many Of the
coast signal service hoistod the signal
from the station at Port Eads. at the
mouth of the Mississippi, when trans
port loaded with troops was passing
out to sea. In reporting the passing
out Of the transport, as was his duty,
the quartermaster added to his mes
sage to headquarters the fact of dis
play OF signal. which was received with
great enthusiasm by the troops. He
was severely reprimanded by return
message over the wires. Century.
