The President and Congress have
been prompt and profuse in extending
thanks to officers Of the army and
navy for deeds OF conspicuous bravery
in action. No mention, however, has
been made thus far Of the magnetic act
of Captain Sigsbee after the wreck
ing Of his beautiful battleship. A man
who went through the ordeal that so
suddenly faced him without losing his
head or his judgment, is hero of the
first water. His injunction, Suspend
Judgment till facts are known was
most potent as calming the outburst
of popular indignation. 1t accomplish
ed more than a presidential proclama-
ton or an act of congress. This single
sentence halted and held for many
days the criticism Of the enlightened
world. Are there no thanks left for
this remarkably cool-headed officer?
He was exonerated from blame for the
loss Of his ship, and this constitutes
his sole recognition.
