The Chicago Chronicle Is trying to make it appear that 1t is getting much satisfaction, Republican though it is, out of the differences existing between PreSident and Congress. It declares it to be a healthy condition of affairs when the two branches of the Govern ment are at each others throats. It details some of the differences that ex- list in Washington. adding:
 Now, to all of this we say: God be wraised? We never want to see an- other era of good feeling between ex- ecutive and Legislature in city, State or nation. It is a sign of gangrene and death. These two functions are designed to be checks on each other and if they are such there must of ne- cessity be friction and warfare.
 Well, if only Roosevelt and the Re publican majority were concerned we should join The Chronicle in It's good humor. Let them eat each other up and have done with 1t, if they do not thereby hinder or defeat important leg islation, but we de not see our way clear to coincide with our contempo- rary's conclusions that harmony be- tween coordinate branches of the Gov ernment is a great evil. It strikes us 800, that The Chronicle is not compli- mentary to Roosevelt in its position Its language leaves a very strong im- pression that it believes if Roosevelt and Congress were in perfect accord the country would be in imminent dan ger. Tn plain words, if each was not a check on the other they would work together to ruin the country. That may be true, but we hardly expected D Republican organ to admit it.

No Room For AupersInE Motives

 Men may differ. and do usually diff fer and yet both sides be perfectly honest and careful in their views We see this every day. Yet whenever a new question is sprung up and men take sides many proceed at once to question the motives of those on the other side It Is human. The State Committee was so clearly impartial in it's recent action that it nonplussed the professional politicians. It put every thing in the hands of the voters 'ex- cspt the Supreme Court Justices.

HoNoRs TO A GREAT NAME.

In every nook and corner of the South this day should be kept in remembrance because it Is the natal day of Robert Edward Lee. It is not that the name belongs exclusively to one section. for tho name of Lee is inseparably woven into the history of the Union from It's birth. No man stood higher in the es- timation of Washington than Light Horse Harry Lee" and none did more to deserve the trust reposed in him. And from those stirring Revolutionary days to the present the Lees have been found where duty called or where pa- triotism demanded their services. Whenever there has been war there has been a Lee to take part in it. and wherever and whenever they have been called on to offer their lives for the Right they have responded as the Scots of old responded to the call of their chiefs.
 But while the name of Lee belongs to the whole country we of the South feel that we have special claim on l General Robert E. Lee, for he was to us the beacon to whom all our eyes were turned in the days when the sons of the South battled for the right as few have battled in modern times. Of him it might be said that he was
 The knightliest of a knightly race Who, since the days of old,
 Have kept the fires of chivalry Alight in hearts of gold. No brayer man, no purer gentleman, no truer patriot ever drew sword at the call of duty, and no man ever laid down sword more free from stain, nor has there been warrior or leader wht so thoroughly retained the respect of his antagonists. He fought for the right as he saw the right. not for the honor or the glory or the pay. but be- cause duty called him. Whether we think of Lee the soldier. or Lee the good citizen, we must always regard him as one whose deeds and character placed the name of Robert Edward Lee as
