the average man performs his plain,
everyday duties.
This does not mean that the leader,
whether in military or civil life. can
escape bearing q peculiar burden OF
responsibility. To him has been given
much and from him much will be de-
manded. 1t is right and proper that
the man in high position. whether
his position be that of high civilian
official in time OF peace or of high
military or naval officer in time of
war, should receive marked degree
of credit If he performs his difficult.
delicate, and responsible task we'll.
and should. on the other hand. be held
to an especially sharp accountability
for any shortcomings. In any time of
crisis the man in high Office in civil
life, the man in high command in mil
itary or naval life, can, if he be weak
or incompetent. paralyze the actions
of multitude OF brave and able men
who are under him. On the other
hand, if in intellect. and above all, in
character, he is able to rise level to
the need OF the moment. he may so
combine and direct the actions of the
many under him as to make their joint
effort irresistible. The first duty OF a
leader, civil or military, is to lead; and
he must lead we'll. Exactly as the
people must demand the highest grade
of integrity and efficiency from their
leaders in civil affairs, SO in military
affairs they must insist upon every Of
ficer devoting all the best that there
is in him to fittinghimselfinthenu
duties of his profession, to caring for
and drilling and training those under
him, SO that alike in point of person.
mel and in point of material the army
and navy of the United States may
reach as high point of perfection as
is humanity possible. This is the work
that only the leaders can do; and if
they shirk 1t their shame is unspeak-
able.
Nevertheless it remains true that
no leader can accomplish very much
unless he has the right kindstof men
to lead. Unless the enlisted man has
the right stuff in him it stands to
reason that no officer can get it out
of him, because it is not there to get
out. So in civil life, if all our leaders
were Washingtons and Lincolns they
could, nevertheless, make no perman-
ent improvement in our citizenship
unless the average citizen had in him
the capacity for such Improvement.
In the last analysis it is the man be-
hind the ballot who counts most in
civil life, just as it is the man behind
the gun who counts most in military
life.
We cannot too highly honor the
memory of the leaders in the civil war
of Grant and Lee, of Sherman and,
Johnston, of Stonewall jackson and
Sheridan, of Farragut and of the cap
tains who fought under and against
him. But after all the man upon whom
the chief credit must rest was the
plain man in the ranks. the man in
blue or in gray who went in to see
the war through. and who did see it
through. He had the courage to stand
without flinching the pickering of the
skirmishes and the hammering of the
great fights he had the steadfast en-
durance to bear with uncomplaini1us

Portsmouth. Va, May 3O.-President
Roosevelt delivered the following ad-
dress here today on the occasion of
the Memorial day observance. A large
audience was present and listened to
the address with deep interest. The
president said:
This day is hallowed and sacred in
our history. for on this through
out the land we meet to pay homage
to the memory of the valiant dead who
fell in the great civil war No other
men deserve so we'll of this country. as
those to whom we owe it that we
now have a country Moreover, the
men to whose valOr we owe it that the
union was preserved have lett us a
country reunited in fact as we'll as in
name. They have left us the memory
of the great deeds and the self-devo-
tfon alike of the men who wore the
blue and of the men who wore the
gray in the contest where brother
fought brother with equal courage,
with equal sincerity OF conviction,
with equal fidelity to a high ideal, as
it was given to each to see that ideal.
Moreover, it is a peculiar pleasure
to speak today under the auspices of
the army and navy union. Of the union
which Is meant to include the officers
and enlisted men of the regular forces
of the United States. Exactly as there
is no other body of men to whom in
the past we have owed so much as to
the veterans of the civil war, so there
is no other body of men among all of
our citizens of today who as whole
deserve quite as we'll of the country as
the officers and enlisted men of the
army and navy of the United States.
Every man who has served we'll and
faithfully, afioat or ashore, in the serv-
ice of the United States, has shown
that he possesses certain qualities
which entitle him In peculiar degree
to the respect Of all his fellow-citizens,
while every man who Is now in the
service cannot but feel himself up
lifted by the thought that in any time
of future crisis 1t may be that the
honor of the whole nation will depend
upon his bearing. There rests upon
each of you tremendous burden of
responsibility, and therefore to yo,,
belongs the proud privilege OF bearing
that load of responsibility we'll.
This audience is composed largely of
veterans of the civil war, largely of
men who have served In or are serving
in the army and the navy of the
United States. They are concerned
not only with the duties of the soldier
and the sailor. but with the duties of
the civilian, with all matters affecting
the plain, everyday citizen as he does
his everyday duties. For we must al
ways remember that In our country
our army and navy are an army and,
navy made up of volunteers; all our
forces are volunteers; our regulars,
af1oat and ashore. are merely our fell
low-citizens who of their own free will
have taken up this particular task.
The task once through they return to
the body of our citizenship; and ex-
actly as the efficiency of our military
service depends chiefly upon the efi-
cheney of the average enlisted man, so
the efficiency of the nation as whole
depends chiefly upon the way in which

GIVE DETAILS
OF SHELTER DEAL
Hayden, Stone q Co. Give Facts
Concerning Understanding Be.
tween Nevada Con. and Cum.
berIand.Ely

Interesting details of the understand
ing between the Nevada Consolidated
Copper company and the Cumberland
Ely Mining company are given in re-
cent circular issued 10y Hayden, Stone
& Co, the Wall street brokers', whose
statements regarding the affairs of
important corporations are considered
authoritative The circular explains
the terms of the deal as follows:
The Cumberland-Ely Mining COM
pany recently sold the balance of its
original issue of 100000 shares to a
syndicate at $3.50 a share.
The company have now called a spe-
cal meeting of it's stockholders to au-
thorize an increase in the capital from
1909. coo to /, 800, 600 shares.
IF this issue is authorized as il I'M
douhtedly will be, 100000 Of these
shares will Delivered to the Nevada
Consolidated company for one-half own
ership in the Nevada Northern railway,
and the ether 10000 shares will be of
fered to the present stockholders, one
share for ten, at $12. 50 per share, fol
the purpose of providing funds which,
with the proceeds of the recent sale OF
40, 900 shares, will give them the mon
ey with which to pay for one-half Of
the smelter which is to be erected joint
ly by the Cumberland and Nevada
Consolidated companies.
'This offer of stock to the stoekhold-
ers has been underwritten without com
mission by inside interests.
"The situation regarding both Ne.
vada Consolidated and Cumberland-Ely
will then be as follows:
Each company will have outstand-
ing 1900, 600 shares. Each company
will own one-half of the railroad
Each company will own one-hall OF
the smelling company, and each will be
practically in the same financial condi-
ton. Therefore, the only difference in
the two properties will be in the differ
ence in the mines.
Each has nearly an equal amount Of
territory, but Cumberland is from
one to two years behind in it's develop
ment What development has been done
UP to date, however, appears to show
ore bodies fully as rich as the average
in the Nevada Consolidated.
