Governor Roosevelt Want.

'oN eFhbE stposeNelt Wants His
hedmi-It was learned yesterday that
Governor Roosevelt has requested Senator
Thomas c. Plat TO use his good Offices"
and persuasive powers TO force Secretary
Alger TO issue the medal OF honor which
General Wheeler and General Wood recon-
mended should be given - him in recolni-
ton OF his distinguished and gallant SER
vices before Santiago" Mr.. hlger has
apparently mislaid the recommendation
for a Roosevelt medal along with several
of ROOsevelt's reports showing the utter
incompetency OF the War Department
AT any rate. up TO date the Secretary of
War has deferred issuing the medal. 1t
is stated that MI Alger claims that the
Constitution stands in the way of the
War Department. honoring the recon-
mendation of Messrs. Wheeler and Wood
in connection with a Roosevelt medal
From the Algerian point of view, the Con-
stitution expressly forbds the granting
Of a medal Of honor to any man who has
had a hand in exposing the rottenness Of
the War Department. TO do so might be
establishing a most dangerous precedent
one that would be likely TO undermine the
foundation OF our Government. However.
Governor Roosevelt is determined TO get
his. medal peaceably if possible. forcibly
If necessary. Senator Plat has "A most
difficult task TO perform He is in fact,
between two fires. If he fails in his mis-
sion Roosevelt may turn a deaf ear to
his future recommendations in the matter
of the distribution Of State patronage
At the same time he has a good many
friends in the military service who must
be shielded from Mr. Ayers vengeance
How TO keep peace in the Republican
political family and yet obtain the coveted
medal is a problem that would probably
stagger u less astute statesman than Mr.
Piatt. II is believed that he will prove
himself TO be equal to the situation. AS a
last resort. the case may be appealed to
| President Mckinley. The President with
| his customary tact will probably suggest
the issuing of a joint medal TO both Aiger
| and Roosevelt.

Cold Charity and Colder Cheek.

Cold Charity and Colder Cheek.
We recommend Mr.. Lewis. superintend
ent of charities. to do as he is alleged
virtuously to have threatened to yes
terday and write a letter to the
District Commissioners in support OF
his reported position that The Times
had perpetrated a fragrant imposition on
the public in calling attention TO the case
of a destitute person whom the Associated
Charities of the community had failed 20
succor, although pleaded with to do SO.
The published statement of Mr.. Lewis
contains some truths which it is pleasure
to US 10 acknowledge. II is true as he as
serts. that when he visited the home of
Mrs Jane Evans at Il o'clock on Wednes-
day morning the unfortunate person had
shoes on her feet. They had been furnished
td her earlier by a charitable stranger in
consequence of the exposition made in The
Times. on the day before she was bare
footed and was burning up her rocking
chair to keep from freezing to death, as
stated by this journal. She also had fire
in her stove, as Lewis ayers. Another
stranger brought her a bushel of coal early
in the morning She likewise had food in
the house. Long before Lewis forsook his
bed of ease on the day in question a pro-
cession- or kfnd-hearted people found their
way to the home of want and misery with
baskets Of provisions.
The excuse made by Lewis is that Mrs.
Evans was refused assistance because she
had two strong sons able to support her.
One OF them is marine, ordinarily enjoy
ing all the luxuries which an income OF
sixteen dollars a month suggests. Until he
became i'll and was sent to the hospital it
is understood that he shared his scanty
pittance with his mother. The remaining
son has been ii and out OF work. When
he could get employment he has been able
to earn as much as two dollars week.
But little more needs to be said on the
subject Thank God the charitably dis
posed OF Washington have risen nobly 10
the opportunity offered them through The
Times exposure. If Mr.. Lewis desires to
make an issue OF the case. he will be heart
lily welcome to his sensations when he gets
through with it. as far as We are con-
cerned.
Organized charity is an excellent and
( acceptable thing under humane and honest
auspices. The organization charged with
receiving and disbursing large sums OF
money. supplies and clothing, in the Dis
trict OF Columbia. has not invariably en-
joyed the complete confidence of the pub
lie. This is TO be regretted, the more be
cause some very honorable and estimable
persons have been connected with it. Il
is said. however. that its officers are not
( compelled to account very closely if al all,
( for the disposition made Of its rich bounty.
ana more remarkable things have been crit
/ icised in the past. The Evans incident suG-
+ gesJ5 the need Of investigation. 1t is hardly
/ 10 be expected that citizens will continue
10 contribute literally to an organization
under the operation Of which such cases as
the one we have exposed are ukely to and,
I ia fact, do occur.

were in action or out of the country dur
ing the war Colonel Roosevelt's friends
say that he regards the proposition as
an afTront intended to humiliate him and
viii refuse the brevet.
II we were not aware of the vindictive
sentiments entertained in the War Office
on account OF the Roosevelt round robin
of last Summer, we should not feel like
criticising Alger too severely in the
present connection Theodore Roosevelt
has some things about him The Times has
not particularly liked. All the same, no
one can sainsay his right to be considered
4 gallant soldier and gentleman, and his
personal conduct before Santiago entities
him to the medal of hcnor if any man
whatever earned that distinction in the
Cuban campaign. We think that President
Mckinley would do a just and popular
thing If he were to order Alger peremp-
torily to gazette the honor TO the colonel
at once Mr.. Alger should not be com
PEELED 20 take the responsibility of
dispensing such rewards in any case.
The matter Of investigating an Off
GERS record for bravery which must
be undertaken when a medal of honor is
in view, cannot always be considered a
pleasant task. while brevet commissions
can be ground out by the hundred with
out any sense OF things other than favorit
ism. Perhaps the most harmless and
cOnstitutionally retiring commissioned
officer on the Union side in the Civil War
was given several breyets for meritorious
service in saving his life by leaving his
regiment on the firing line in a certain
battle, and seeking the angel Safety under
a bed in a hotel.
We are compelled to think that the
President would better take the medal
business into his own hands; in which
case the chromos might be peddled by
Alger without exciting much more public
contempt for his methods than is now
current and quite unanimous.
