CAR THANKS RoJEsTvENsKY.
Says It Was Will of Almighty That
Togo Should Win.

st. Petersburg, June 12.-Emperor
Nicholas has cabled the following
message to Admiral Rojestvensky:
From my heart thank you and all
the officers of the squadron who have
honorably done their duty for your
unselfish work for Russia and for me.
BY the will of the Almighty, success
was not destined to crown your en-
deavors, but your boundless bravery
will always be source of pride to the
country.
81 wish you a speedy recovery. May
God console you all.
NICHOLAS
The peculiar wording of the mes
sage is attracting attention.
The restriction of the emperor's
thanks to those honorably doing their
duty is tanning the ugly talk regard
ing the surrender of ships and the
conduct of some of the crews. The
messages of Admiral Enquist and
Captain Chagin, Of the Russian Cruis-
err Almaz, did not contain any intima-
ton of misbehavior on the part of the
officers or crew.

USE PLAIN SPEECH

A high authority has said that education in its last
analysis consists of proper definitions, while yet another
has defined definition itself as reference to the embrac-
ing genus with enumeration of necessary differentia.
guilty will deny that a pressing need of our day and
country is a return to the proper use of words, in order
that things may be called by their right names and thus
be regarded in their true light.
1t is customary to speak of higher finance" using
the expression as a term to conceal the real character
of the most tremendous schemes of fraud and embezzle-
ment ever known in the history of the world. So, we
speak of graft in office as though it were something
different from the crimes defined by statute, and for the
punishment of which penitentiaries have been establish
ed.
. A return to the plain old AngloSaxon terms would
both simplify matters and improve the moral atmosphere.
For instance:
When a man makes his millions by fraud or law eva
sion or bribery we hesitate to call him a common thief.
But that is his proper name. When an insurance presi-
dent takes the money of the policy holders and gives it
to the treasurer of a campaign fund We are slow to write
him down as embezzler. What else is he? When a trust
fund is committed to the keeping of a man who uses it
not for the good of the trust but for the good of himself
and relatives do we say he is guilty of obtaining money
under false pretense? When a man falsely swears con-
corning the value of the property he makes returns of for
taxation do we call him a perjurer? No! A new nomen-
clature of business" terms has grown up. Men who
steal millions have simply departed from strict regular
ity." Men who give away other peoples money for po-
litical purposes are regarded as "caretakers of the peo-
pies interests" aud even as "benefactors of the country
Even the term graft" robs crime of its harshness. The
wide use of the word obscures its real significance. 1t
offers itself as a sort Of mantle of good natuTed toler-
ance for ordinary thieving.
The only way to prevent increase of the present evil
is not only to punish the evil doors, but to speak of their
deeds by their true names-to paint the devil as black as
he really is.
