ORIGIN OF FAMILIAR SEA TERMS
Some Are Far Fetched and Most Of
Them Are Ancient.
From the Marine Journal.

From the Marine Journal.
There is hardly a language which has not
been called upon to provide at least one of
the curious sea terms which are in con-
slant use and whose origin is obscure.
For instance, the word admiral is not
of English origin, but is from the Arabic
Emil ell Bagh," or lord of the sea. Cap
tain comes from the Latin caput. but mate
is from Icelandic. and means a companion
or equal Coxswain is a word whose deri-
walton would never be guessed. The cox
swain was originally the man who pulled
the after oar in the captains boat, which
was known as the cookboat This Is turn
is corruption OF the word coracle,
lsmall, round boat used on the Wye and
Usk rivers. So coxswatn comes to us from
the Welsh.
Commodore is not difficult to tra.e to
Its beginning. 1t is simply the italian
commentators, meaning commander. No

Is the West Indian name for spirit
ghost, while Jonah refers, of course. to the
prophet.
Another curious case Of a term grad
ually corrupted out OF Its original form
is the dog watch. 1t was originally the
dodge WATCH because It lasted only two
hours instead of four, and thus makes It
possible that the same men shall not be
on duty every day during the same hours.

Activity of Southern Republicans.

AS the political campaigns are opening in
the southern states. and the contests for
delegates to the next presidential conven-
ton are becoming active, a warning has
been sent out to federal officials against
"pernicious activity" The President has no
objections to ordinary participation in po-
litical affairs. On the contrary, he believes
1t to be the duty of every citizen to exer-
else the privileges bestowed upon him by
the Constitution and that every republi-
can has right to do whatever he can to
promote the interests of his party and to
secure the election of his candidate. But,
at the same time, he has notified office
holders that they must not show Offensive
partisaHshfp, or assume the management
of campaigns or direct the work of polti-
cal committees. He takes the ground that
an office-holder is the servant of the public
and not the servant of the party, and,
therefore, without losing his rights and
privilege of a citizen, it Is not expedient
or proper for him to be a party manager or
boss"
The republican state committees and coun-
ty committees throughout the south have
been composed almost exclusively of office
holders. In several states the party has
been reduced numerically to the federal
Office-holders and those who aspire to such
honors, and it has been considered neces-
sary for an aspirant to a federal office to
take very active part at primaries, eau
cuses nd conventions As rule, the dele
gates to national conventions have been col
lectors of internal revenue. United States
marshals and postmasters, but while the
President has no objections to federal Off
Gals sitting as delegates in conventions he
does not think 1t advisable. They not
forbidden to do so, but the fact that man
has been or Is a delegate will no longer be
to his credit add to his influence al the
White House or the executive departments.
No formal rule will be published, but it
will be made clear that all concerned must
either resign their offices of their connec-
ton with state and county committees.
They cannot have both. The President
takes the ground that a man cannot run
an office and a political committee at the
same time and give satisfaction, and that
he must give up one or the other.
The word has gone out to the republican
leaders In the different states in the south
and 1t is expected that the approaching
convention Will elect an entirely new set
of committees and political managers who
do not hold federal positions.
