Mr.. Martins Mistake

Editor Independent: 1t is incom-
prchensiblc how any man who has
been reading with attention any
thing have said on the subject could
have got it into his head that | am
in favor Of letting the banks, under
any possible condition or favoritism,
issue their notes as money. The is
sue of money is prerogative of gov
ernment and ought under no posi-
bic set of circumstances to be dele
gated to any individual or corpora
ton. And let me say further in this
connection that every dollar of ev-
cry form of money ought to be a full
legal tender.

Crushed Algiers Pirates.

The first Lord E0mouth received his
peerage. together with a perpetual pen
sion OF $4,000 a year, for his services
in bombarding and destroying the feet
and arsenal of Algiers, and thus crush
ing the power of the piratical Deys OF
Algiers, who for hundreds OF years had
spread terror and desolation along the
entire coast OF the Mediterranean. 1t
may be remembered that the United
States took part In this bombardment
of Algiers, being the first occasion, be-
lieve. on which the English and the
United States fleets had gone into action
as friends instead OF foes. Some years
ago the late Lord Exmouth commuted
his pension in consideration of a sum
OF s250,0o0, his being one of the
last of the so-called hereditary pensions.
which were always unpopular with the
people, owing to the fact of their having
been too often conferred as tokens of
unworthy royal favor than as reward
for military and naval services.
Young Lord Exmouth has a bachelor
uncle. the Hon. William PeIlew, who is
his only heir. failing whom the viscoun-
ty OF Exmouth, as well as the Pellew
baronetcy. passes to Henry Edward Pei
lew, whom l mentioned above as married
to the daughter OF the Hon. William Jay
OF New York, and who. making his home
in Washington, d. c., is to all intents
and purposes an American.

chances on an employees honesty if he
can help it, or excuse petty larceny
on the ground that the employe Is
otherwise satisfactory. The house
keeper too often does. Fair pay, fair
oealing, and system will usually Sc
cure reasonably good service; and if
in any case they do not, either the
conditions of domestic service In that
particular place are extraordinarily
bad or the temper of the mistress is
of that uncomfortable kind which
makes for short terms of service and
antagonism in the household.

A Prophecy Fulfilled.

This prophecy has been fulfilled. The
house OF Mar was ruined by its adhesion
to the Jacobite cause. In the beginning
OF the last century fifty yeomanry
horsCs were stabbed in the grand hall.
Some time later a weaver was found
working In the state chamber. while. in
1920. a couple of ash saplings were
discovered sprouting on the ramparts.
King George " restored. in 1924. the
earldom which had been forfeited at
the time OF the Jacobite rebellion, and.
in 1875. the honors OF the house were
doubled by the successful claim OF the
thirteenth Earl OF Kellie TO another
Earldom OF Mars. created, in 1865, by
Queen Mary.
The consequence is that there are two
Barls of Mar, who are distinguished
from one another by the fact that
whereas the one is known as the Earl
of Mar and Kellie. the other is known
only as the Earl of Mar. 1t is the lat
ter who is the premier earl OF Scot
land, and he strongly resents the pre-
tensions OF Lord Mar and Kellie to
the Mar earldom of the Mary Queen Of
Scots creation, denouncing him as a
usurper. In fact, at every meeting OF
the representative peers of Scotland at
Hob rood Palace, at Edinburgh, the old
Ear. of Mar invariably arises to pro-
test in the most solemn manner against
the Earl OF Kellie voting as the Earl
OF Mar.

The Earls of Mar.

Lord Garioch. whose marriage 10 Miss
Sybil Heathcot has Just taken place In
Scotland. is the eldest son and heir of
the Earl of Mar. the premier earl OF
Scotland. Although Lord Mar. who is a
clergyman, figures in the peerage as
the thirty-third In descent, dating from
the year 1865, yet the earldom existed
long prior to that epoch. the members
Of the present Lord Mars family having

history. on every page OF which their
names may be said to figure.

Our Need of PeTmanenCe.
Citizens of Washington Must Have a
Permanent Interest in the City.

III the lily.
One of the things which has
worked against the improvement of
Washington in the past has been the
transient character of its population.
That IS, without being really tran
sient, the general feeling of the popu-
lation has been that it was transient.
We all know the sort of caller who
says she can only stay FIVE minutes,
and sits on the edge of her chair,
parasol across lap, and talks for an
hour and half. Something like this
is the case with the average resident
OF this city. Probably not five per
cent of the adult residents of the
Capital came here with the intention
of settling for life. For all that, they
have stayed, five, ten, twenty years, a
lifetime; but they have always had
the feeling that they might at any
moment conclude to go back to the
place whence they came
1t is time to realize the falsity Of
this transient feeling, and to recog-
nize the fact that the people of this
city should be encouraged in feel
ing of permanenee, and take an in
terest in its future Their children
and grandchildren are more than
likely to grow up here. They have an
interest in seeing that the streets are
beautiful, the schools good, the
houses well built and attractive, the
morals of the city all that honest en-.
deavor in the line of good government
can make them. 1t is time, in short
for the resident troubled with thai
transient feeling TO take off his hat
end sit down to dinner.

why NO Mention of Mcclellan?
10 the Eeitor Of rhe washington TImes:

To the Editor of The Washington Times;
Permit me to thank you for calling attention
to the singular lapse Of memory with which our
esteemed Chief Magistrate seems TO have bean
afflicted on the occasion Of certain recent cere-
monies on the battlefield Of Antieta1n. To talk
about that momentous battle and omit mention
Of George b. Mcclellan Is too much like pro-
ducing Hamlet without bringing the melan-
choly Dane upon the scene II there had been
no Mcclellan that day, the history OF the
civil war would probably have been written
quite differently from its present version.
President Roosevelt has ever been credited
with retentive memory: at least, cannot
call to mind any occasion on which it failed
him. On the contrary, he has never been at a
loss to draw upon its resources. 1t has en-
abled him to recall with ease comparatively
unmportant circumstances connected with the
history Of our country I remember distinctly
speeches made by him in which not only the
history OF the United States, but also that Of
foreign lands touched upon, and in which
he displayed unusually accurate knowledge
OF minor events. How remarkable, therefore,
this inexplicable failure to remember that
Mcclellan led the Union forces at Antie.am and
that to his military genius was due the vic
tory Of that day
VIII not DO the President of the United
States the injustice TO suppose that some po-
litical eventuality could have moved him in
tentionaliy 70 ignore the merits and services

history has given credit for great achieve

Our President and Pistols.

To the Editor Of The Washington Times
II II be true that the President Of the United
States carries a pistol at Oyster Bay, os course
he viii have TO mend his ways when he returns
70 Washington, or il viii be a sorTy day for
him when Judge KimbaI gets him in the Police

But. with lghtness aside, 1 am wondering II,
in the eyes Of Americans. it is good form"
for the President TO carry pistol either in
his hip pocket or any other pocket, but particu-
larly In the hip pocket.
The Kaiser may carry one. King Edward may
carry one. But what Is that to US? And think
Of Lincoln, Garfield or Mckinley with pistol

Dead men. to be sure, but are not the chances
a very great many to one that the fate would
have been the same with pistol in hip pocket,

The PeCulations of Servants.
Their Failings May Be Due to the Care
Iessness of Society.

The question of the peeulatIons and
other failings of servants is reasona-
bly, sure to be discussed whenever two
or three women are gathered together,
and the discussion overhows into print
now and then. The ground frequent
ly taken by aggrieved mistresses is
that servants are a class of people
apart and peculiar in their faults, and
that dishonesty in them is a class
trait. AZ a matter of fact, 1t is moth
ing of the kind.
There is no business in the world
which offers so much unchecked op-
portunity for thieving as that Of do
mestic service. A business man would
not think Of expecting unqualified
honesty from the fifty, or two hum
dred, or more persons in his employ.
He would try to secure it, of course,
but he would not be surprised if GER
tain percentage out of the number
proved dishonest. In most business
houses employees arc unobtrusively
watched, so that it would be hard for
them to take anything unobserved.
There are too many housekeepers who
give their servants every opportunity
II steal, and then are amazed when
some Of them do it. More than that,
many Of them wink at petty thieving
as thing which one must expect; and
thereby whatever moral sense the SER
want may have Is obscured-
