ST. LOUIS. July 1.-The Republic to-

torial comment an article furnished by
Prof. Warehouse. Of Washington univer-
sity, this city. on the subject OF proper
name for this country. the chief points Of
which are as follows:
The Westiiehe Post win also publish the
article with approving notice:
AT present there Is no proper name
that distinctively describes this country.
Columbia and America apply to the whole
western hemisphere. The people OF Can
ada and Mexico. Of Central and South
America are all Americans and might
justly resent the pretensions which claim
that title exclusively fer the inhabitants
Of the United States Of North America.
''The United States IL an awkward ex-
preston. It il plural In form and singu-
lar In sense. It does not AFFORD personal OF

try. The first letters OF these words form

1T Is facetiously said that 'U. s." stands
for Uncle SAM" and this ourlesque per-
sonification has found q permanent place
in our language. The baptismal names OF
Generals Grant and Jackson have been
supplanted by the universally used names
which act Of valor gave. Physicists have
invested the utterly inexpensive watt
VOLT ohm and 'ampere' with technical
meanings and have introduced them into
the Technology Of electrical science.
IF fine use can create and popularize
new terms do not tho words 'UsonA' and
