THE HEAD OF THE ARMY.

II General Fred Grant failed to in
herit his illustrious fathers transcen-
dent military genius, considerable
portion of the plain common sense ana
knowledge of fitness that distinguished
the warrior president has descended
to the son. A practice of setting reg
ular soldiers and the national guards
men before the veterans of the civil
war in the line of march on Memorial
day has obtained for some years. mu,h
to the annoyance of the old soldiers.
General Grant has decided that here
after the men who conquered the re-
bellion shall have precedence. His Ge-
justice. II IL what his father would
have done. General Fred Grant i'm
proves with years and upon acquain-
lance.
Memorial day belongs peculiarly to
the volunteer soldiers and of these most
OF all to the survivors of the civil
war. They inaugurated and kept the
holiday more than thirty years before
another war gave the volunteers of
'9S legitimate heirship. They should
take precedence and the Spanish
American veterans march next in or
der. 1t is their day and their desert
and their place in the van is no dis
paragement to the regular or militia
man.
Perhaps the line will lack the true
military neatness of carriage and
alignment. Mayhap it will waver and
shake, but the genius of liberty and
the spirit of the past will hover ovar
the ragged line and above the tat
tered flags. The gray old men of the
grand army belong in the front files.
SO long as they live they will remain
in the hearts of the people at least
the head OF the army.

President Eliot, of Harvard. accuses
| Americans, and especially American
business men, OF cowardice. Not the
fhysical weakness that shuns conflict,
but the moral timidity that bows to
custom and a crowd. President Eliot
finds serious fault with the American
man of business in that he accuStoms
himself to the will of the majority
bows to the opinion Of the crowd and
spreads the sail Of his business craft to
the winds of opportunity without ques-
ton as to the quarter from which they
blow. He finds the business man sub
ordinating himself to public opinion
and prejudice. and finds this sufficient.
ground for his charge of personal cow
ariice.
President Eliot is right in sense,
hut the blame belongs more to the sys..
TEN than the individual What Presi.
dent Eliot classes as cowardice is III
most cases simple self preservation
The ordinary merchant or business man
dependent upon public favor must win
it or stand aside to give way to HIS
more fortunate competitor. Pronounced
opinions do not pave the path to pop.
ularity Vinegar catches no flies. The
public insists on spending its money
where it pleases. and a stiff knee joint
is proverbially foe to thrift. The
cessful politician, watches the shifting
currents of popular appreciation ami
dissatisfaction, and trims his sails and
sets his rudder to take advantage. Abb
stractly, the man who suppresses his
soul for business advantage Is guilty of
'cowardiee, but cowardice in the forum
becomes transmitted into business
sense in the market place.
There is need of higher ethical
code of business. but 1t will be long
time coming under present conditions.
The demand is for miilionaires. So

ured by Troy weight, while competition
in every branch of business retains lis
present wild beast ferocity the injet-
ton Of individual heroism into ordinary
business is not likely to be highly sus.-
cessful in results. Perhaps a merchant
who refuses to take an advanced stand
in opposition to public opinion is cow
ardly. but he has his excuse in present
necessity.
