The new Secretary of the Navy has a
brother named Joy, who lives at Arbor
Lodge, the home of the late Sterling J,
Morton, Secretary of Agriculture under
Cleveland. Mr.. Joy Morton is naturally
much reioiced that his brother has Cab
met position under a Republican Presi
dent as renowned as is President Roose-
velt. He has arranged to- fetch train
load OF eastern people to Nj braska CITY. to-
attend banquet which he will give to
his brother Paul. Tie entertainmet is
booked for this evening, and the Secre-
tary has left Washington TO be present.
One special train will run from Chicago
ana another from Omaha. Both Joy and.
Paul were raised on the home farm in
Nebraska. 1t is sometimes the farmer
boy who wins. Senator Fairbanks was
an Ohio farmers boy.

1t is denied that there is any politics
in the recent strikes, or that any action
the President may have taken has any
thing to do with current labor troubles.
The fact that the packing-house magnates
and their striking employees are willing to
arbitrate their differences is proof that
the trouble is ncn-partisan. Nor is it at
all probable, as has been stated, that the
President has issued orders through the
Department of Justice, that the injunc-
ton case against the beef packers must
be taken up by the Supreme Court i'm
mediately after convening for the Oct
ober term. The President cannot issue
such orders The Court is Il ro-nr'linate
branch of the Government, and attends to
its business according to its own rules,
without pressure from any source. 1t is
as independent of the Executive as the
Executive is of it.

WASHINGTON> LETTER
WASHINGTON. D. c.. July 1911

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 10Th.
WHATEVER the President does,
w whether in this city, or out OF it
is read with interest by the vast number
of people employed in the Departments
here, as well as the population generally.
While the work of the Government mnst
60 on without interaission, and while the
heat of the city is at times intense, it is
pleasure to know that President Roose-
welt is sleeping out OF doors with his boys,
or is taking a row ON the Sound, grabbing
or fishing, or sets a good example by
chopping at the family wood-pie, or is
playing tennis, and perhaps receiving
delegations of visitors from all points OF
the compass who want him to settle the
affairs OF the world, and do it at once by
rule of thumb. Meanwhile lie is prepar-
ing his speech to be delivered on the 9th
inst, when he will be officially notified
of his nomination.

Not Our Fight.

Tlore was a little spat in the Senate
on Saturday between Nelson and Hale.
Tho Senator from Maine challenged a
statemeDtfrom the Minnesota Senator,
which tended to presume IL National in.
tcrest I'D the success of Japan, to which
Nelson responded that Hale had ex.
pressed u great partially for Russia.
Every American citizen il entitled to
the expression Of his W opinion in
this matter. But no United States Of
fetal should give it out that this Nation,
as Il Nation, wishes and hopes for the
success Of either against the other.
Whatever OF gratitude we owe for the
past is due to Russia, not to Japan.
We should, Ii therefore,, as Il Nation, not
side with Japan. On the other hand,
there is 10 good reason why we should
rs a Nation, help Russia with our moral
support rs expressed in congress-. For.
although we should be grateful To her
To: many things, yet she did Il very
wrong act when she deliberately broke
