TAKE LAwToN FIRST.

The Indianapolis Board of Trade has
voted $50 to be used as foundation of a
Dewey fund.-" and to the newspapers is
committed the task OF soliciting additions
TO the fund. The Board Of Trade is patrfi
Otto. but is not quite up 70 date in this
matter. 1t is not probable that the news
papers OF the State or city will care TO take
up the matter at present for this fund Ian
guishes wherever efforts at collection have
been made. The reason IL perfectly plain.
Every one with much or little to give would
be glad TO honor Dewey, but distinct doubt
prevails as to whether or not the proposed
gift-a house in Washington is the only
definite thing mentioned-would be agree
able TO him. Whenever il is made clear
that they can offer any testimonial which
will be acceptable to the great admiral In
diana citizens and Indiana newspapers will
net be slow TO respond.
Meanwhile. there is a duty that comes
nearer home-that of testifying to their ap-
probation of that distinguished Indiana
hero, General Lawton. 1t would have been
much more to the point. just at this time,
if the Board OF Trade had taken the lead
in this matter. Lawton is one of the great
figures of the war. He is still in active
service. and upon his skill will largely de-
pend the early subjugation of the Filipinos.
He has never had recognition from his own
State. though his record as an Indian
fighter is one of the wonders in army cir
cles, and his part in the Cuban campaign
was an important one. In the Philippines
his achievements have attracted the atten-
ton and won the praise of military men the
world over. 1t will be shame to Indiana if
local manifestation If the pride that is felt
in his deeds is not made, and made soon.
Let the board start the movement in his
behalf and allow the Dewey fund to rest for
the present. When the time comes the peo-
pie will do right by the admiral also The
state press is sounding Lawton's praises
and all that Is needed to bring a willing re-
Spouse is for some responsible organizati ton
to take the lead.
