From the Springfield (Mass) Repub-
lican.
1t is an easy matter to rake over the
records of military and naval COM
manders and show that incidental er-
eors were committed in the course of
their campaigns, however successful
they may have been. The great Lord
Nelson himself committed faults. His
splendid victory at Trafalgar was pre-
coded by heartbreaking chase across
the Atlantic and back, which would
never have been necessary if the
French fleet had not been permitted
by the English admiral to steal out
4 Toulon and escape to the high seas

A Serious Charge.
From the Boston Herald.


Mr.. Edward P. Clarke. in an inter-
csting article contributed to the cur
rent number of Ainslee's Magazine,
makes a charge against President
Mckinley as laboring TO procure the
election of j. Edward Addicks to the
United States Senate which we do not
remember to have seen before stated
so explicitly. He declares that the
President used his personal influence
to bring this about The Repub-
licans who refused to vote for Adj
dicks were labored with in this quar-
ter to change their attitude. Mr..
Clarke saws: THE President of the
United. States earnestly besought
their cooperation in whatever ar
rangement might be necessary to Sc
cure the election of two Republicans,
and he urged them to place the good
of the party above any question of
personal prejudice" 1t was well IN
derstood that this meant the election
of Addicks. and the people appealed
to so received it. Mr. Clarke contin-
ues: 1T was as severe a strain as
ever was put upon plain men. but it
was met with the moral courage of
heroes. The price is too high
that was the ugly truth which was
frankly told the President to his face
by these conscientious Republicans.
We are compelled to believe this
statement reliable, because Mr.. Clarke
is one of the most careful investiga-
tors as regards facts. and he puts
himself in this instance into commu-
nication with parties in Delaware. go
