scALsYs FRIENDS INesNsEo.
They Oppose use Of maelay's History
at Naval Academy.
c,rfrr,o- -Nfouon T1roae hossu


at Naval Academy.
scripps- -McRae Press Assn.
Washington, D. c., July 22-The
champions Of Admiral schley are
much incensed because "Maclay's
History Of the United States Navy" is
a text book at the Naval academy,
and because the author has recently
issued q third volume devoted to naval
engagements IN the war with Spain.
IN which he handles schley rather
severely criticising his conduct at
Santiago. Nr Maclay. in his history,
says that the Brooklyn was taken into
the thickest OF the battle against her
commanders will.' and he says "the
shameful spectacle of an American
warship supported by a force super
ior to the enemy's a warship whose
commander had expended such vast
quantities OF ammunition in target
practice in the presence OF a fashion.
able hotel audience at Hampton Roads
in order to meet a worthy foe, delib-
erately turning tail and running away,
was presented"
There are other equally severe
criticisms Of Admiral schley's con
duct at Santiago.
When Secretary Longs attention
was called to the matter he said he
had not known that the book was used
at the naval academy. The secretary
said: Nov, as to Mr.. Maclay's his
tory | can say that it is well written
and that his description Of naval en-
gagements are very graphic. More
over, he has given credit to number
of young officers whose work upon
the smaller vessels is really deserving
of recognition, although they are gen
orally overlooked in historical nara
tlves. Mr.. Maclay's story of events
that preceded the battle of Santiago
is, "a my opinion. correct. AS to his
version of the battle itself, without en-
tering into a discussion Of that event
! am free to say that | think he has
been unfortunate in the use of intem-
perate language and that it lacks that
calm, judicial tone, which is the first
essential of an historical text book"
HAS the character of his language
been brought to your attention."
1T has not. no one has yet made
any formal complaint. As a matter
OF fact the third volume has not yet
been used as a text book. It appear
ed only a few weeks ago, and the
clRsses at the academy are not in ses-
sion. Under these circumstances the
department has not taken any action,
but that is not saying that It will not.
There is no question as to the power
Of the department to act in the matter
of text books used by the academy.
Every one knows that a text book
should be fair and certain occurrences
at the battle of Santiago, which Mr.
Maclay so severely criticises, are de-
tails regarding which experts enter
tain an honest difference of opinion"
Congressman Schrim, Of Maryland,
threatens a congressional investiga-
ton if the third volume of Maclay's
history is used at the naval university.

SONS Or THF SOUTH.

For the Daughters of the coufederaoy.
Sons Of the South today arise
Aud honor your heroic dead
Who fell under the bonnie blue skies
When every Southern heart was bled.
Scatter the sweet flowers Of spring
over their last long resting place;
Their virtues we will talk and sing,
While lasts one Of the "old South"r
Grand in their prime they went to war,
Not for conquest or thirst for blood,
But scenting danger from afar,
An invading host they withstood
Their manly breasts opposed the food,
That on their institutions came;
Nor trembled at the sight of blood,
Nor fingered when their hopes seemed
vain.
Unequal was the great contest,
Interior men would have quailed;
Bravely they barred their manly breasts,
Their constitutions were assailed.
They thought their constitutions right,
To their foes they had done no wrong;
They died before invading might,
They live in patriotic song.
The caufe for which they bled and died,
In an unsettled stale remains;
Shall state rights forever abide,
Or Imperialism reignl
They died but their cause still survives,
Future generations will know
That their rights have been kept alive
By blood which from martyrs did flow.
Sleep ON, braves, you died not in vain,
Your martyr blood is still tho seed
That will spring up in us again,
In our loved country's greatest need.
A union Of many in one,
az Pluribus Unum" we love,
But above the many the one,
Can never defantly move.

The thought Of a number OF
writer's seems te be that America
is to have a language all her own.
There is no doubt but that the
English language is becoming so
altered by Americanisms that it is
losing its identity. Many are re.
GREETING the prevalence Of slang,
and the American propensity to
coin new phrases and the disre-
gard for grammatical rules which
is so common. The words
"knowed," "blowed," "busied"
aud "cussed," with a number Of
others, will probably win their
way in because of their common
prevalence.
The numerous localisms will
furnish considerable coloring for
our American language when it is
formed, and probably the Ameri-
can voice will have marked char
acleristics. The "America voice"
is already being referred to in some
what uncomplimenlary terms by
people Of other countries and per.
haps not without just cause.
American customs and costumes,
too, no doubt have exerted an in-
fuence on the voice. But both
poetry and fiction have paid high
