In connection with the efforts Edward
Atkinson and his associates are making
10 discourage our soldiers in the Phil
ippines and engender in their minds
that desertion from their posts would be
mortally justihabls. a correspondent OF
the New York Sun recently questioned
Atkinson that II, in the event Of his
being a volunteer in the Philippines, he
would consider himself justified In leav-
ing and coming home, as a matter OF
conscience. Another correspondent, re-
ferring to this inquiry, quotes for MI
Atkinson's information the enlistment
oath taken by volunteer in the United
states army. The concluding para
graph Of this oath is:
"Aud do most solemnly swear Tor
aairm) that 1 will bear true faith and
allegiance to the United States Of
America, and that win serve them
honestly and faithfully against all their
enemies whomsoeyer, and that will
obey the orders Of the President OF the
United states and the orders OF the
officers appointed over me, according to
the rules and articles of war"
II Atkinson would have refused to
serve, as he says in his letter to Mr..
Lord he would do, he certainly would
have violated his oath and subjected
himself to a charge of perjury. The
correspondent pertlnently observes that
Mr.. Atkinson should be asked whether
the United states soldiers are not ex-
pected to keep their oaths, and whether
or not honest people would have the
right to call them perjured traitors II
they did not. We patiently await Mr..
Atklnson's response.

POINTED PARAaRAPHs.

The seat of learning Is often worn
threadbare.
Talk is cheap-probably because OF
the production.
A hole is the only thing man can
keep In an empty pocket.
The gossip delivers many telling
blow, but they are always foul.
Oysters, like ambitions, soon disap-
pear after they get into a stew.
He who builds according to every
mans advice will have a queer struc-
ture.
Woman is the only combination that
can unlock the safe Of the bachelor
hood.
The man who is satisfied with himself
is usually disappointed with other peo-
pie.
Sometimes a mans will is broken af-
ter his demise and sometimes after his
marriage.
A girl pulls the wool over a mans
he looks sheepish.
No matter how good mans reputa-
ton for veracity may be, his friends al
ways doubt his fish stories.
Some men are so fond Of an argu-
ment that they will dispute with
guide board about the distance to the
next town.

nenth of hfother Holliday.

Mother Holiday is dead, at the age Of
ninety-seven. She came into. the world
when the Nineteenth century was but
two years old; she leaves it for her
place In that higher and better World
won by her purity of character for
nearly a hundred years, almost within
q year Of the beginning Of the 'Twenti-
eth century. Aside from those who
compose her immediate family and
most intimate friends, the chief mourn
ers In the loss Of this noble woman
viii be the veteran survivors of the
civil war.
There will be grief in the hearts that
are covered by the old blue uniforms Of
the Grand Army Of the Republic. There
win be sorrow in the camps Of the So
ciety of the Army Of West Virginia,
whose members are scattered over a
dozen states, and who will revere her
sweet memory to the day when they
shall themselves be summoned to the
greater and grander Reunion.
Mother Holiday will never be forgot
ten here. Her Identity with the relief
work in wheeling during the war won
for her the love of the soldiers in the
cause for the Union, and they will build
a monument to her memory, II not OF
marble or granite. certainly one In their
hearts and memories that only death
can demolish.
But this sorrow will not be among
the veterans alone, it win be in all the
MONIES Of Wheeling. and the memory of
few loved ones. SO revered and honOred.
who have passed away to the eternal
rest, will be more tenderly cherished.
Upon the monument that win be
erected over the earthly resting place Of
Mother Holiday may well be inscribed
this beautiful sentiment of gifted
poet:
',But woman nobly bore wars cruel brunt,
Aud fought, in peace, for those who fought
In front.
o. woman-sweet in loveliness divine
There Is no balm in all the world like thine.
And-man's great boon-thy light Will ever
All hall IH 10 woman-human, yet divine
On either side Of wars dividing line.
Both North and South, her loving heart
was true
In Dixie 10 the Gray, and North, the Blue.
Unarmed she battled bravely for her cause,
And Fame will give her, eVermore, ap-
plause."

The PrcsIdent and Dewey.

The President has started on his CHI
cago and Northwestern trip. having left
washington on Wednesday night. The
Register publishes his itinerary. But a
few days previous the Register declared
this was to be a political trip. and the
President was to take Admiral Dewey
along with him. to aid him in working
up his chances for next year. on a
careful reading Of the itinerary and a
list of the party accompanying the
President, Admiral Dewey's name does
not appear in the list. The Intelligent
Ger nailed the silly story that the adj
miral would concern himself in Politics.
and the Register didn't like 1t bit.
The IntellIgencer has had occasion to
quote Admiral Dewey to prove the
falslty of several OF its contemporaries
publications. among others its absurd
echo of the New York Worlds endeavor
to make him the Democratic candidate
for the Presidency.
The Registers reply to these COM
ments accompanied the publication of
the itinerary, which did not contain
Admiral Dewey's name, thereby dis
proving the Registers absurd charge.
1t simply says: IF 1t wasn't for that
awful spectre of Dewey the editor of
the Intelllgencer would sleep better O.
nights" There is no spectre about 1t.
MI. T...11t,,o,.a,. t,a,, ,,oro raspaot -For
Dewey than to believe that he would
give up the magnificent position he oc-
cuples In the hearts of the country-a
life position in the highest capacity
possible for an American naval officer,
and but the third officer In American
history who has been so honored-to go
into partisan politics and bring an end
10 that position.
II the Register had one half the re-
spect for Admiral Dewey that the In
tellIgencer has 1t would not endorse a
proposition which would require our
great hero to sacrifice the realization of
an ambition of a lifetime, to become a
party candidate for a political office,
and lose the favor of one.halt of the
seventy million people who now hold
him in such high esteem. II this propo-
sltion is an awful spectre" 1t has
Dewey's own public avowal of 1t.
Dewey Is not going to permit himself
to be made victim of a political
scheme of the Experimentation dem
agogues, which include in their number
the wheeling Register. He prizes the
universal respect of his countrymen
highly enough not to be led into such a

The smoke that aSeendS from thousands
Of stacks Is in mighty contrast to the
smokeless chImneys. the coxey armies,
the idle workmen that existed during
the operation of the Wilson act, and

sion Of foreign commerce and trade In

year. lit dead. and has been dead for
a long time, and never will be resur-
rected. unless conditions as they now
exist should nightly change.
The Register revives this dead tariff
as a tax matter all because the raisen
growers out in California, In oydet TO
extend their foreign trade, grant re-
bate of ONE CENT per pound on all
raisens shipped abroad. Since the tariff
rate on raisens and all other kinds Of
fruits is but ONE CENT per pound,
for the raisen producers to be willing to
throw on that cent to get foreign GUS
toners. is no Indication that they add
that cent to the market price at home,
and even If they did 1t would not
amount to a row of pins.
Foreign shipments by vessels are
much cheaper than domestic shipments
by rail. and they could discount foreign
shipments to an amount still lower and
get better profits than they would get
in this country by adding Ave or six
cents to the regular price. If the Reg
lister has any business sense at all 1t
can readily see the truth of this.
