In view of the above commercial con
dition, 1t is probable that either Or b sttl
of the big political parties will pay up
as an issue in the coming campaign
the question Of water transportation.
Such d condition as prevailed in the
west last winter would not have been
possible had the Mississippi and its
tributaries been developed as they
should be. 1t would have been pos
.sible, with the assistance Of ice crush Z
ing boats, to have sent great fleets up
that river loaded with coal from II
linois, Missouri, Kansas, and even from
the mines Of Pennsylvania The Ma
tionaf Rivers & Harbors Congress all
along has urged the necessity for
developing this system of transporta-
ton as an auxiliary to the railroad. 1t
Is probable that the convention of the
National Rivers q Harbors Congrers
will be held almost simultaneously
with the opening Of the Sixtieth Con-
gross, and the question of waterway
transportation thus will be brought
forcibly to the attention OF the national
law makers,

WIZ VALLEY FORGE is now, 12o
u A years after the event, public
" park. The tradition that ''ev-
cry schoolboy" has heard of
Valley Forge no doubt is founded upon
fact, but it is apparent that the ma
jority of schoolboys during the past
thirteen decades have forgotten it
shortly after hearing about it. 1t is
matter of record that member of con-
gress, in a speech On the floor of the
house. once referred eloquently and
touchingly to Valley Forge as shat
famous battlefield of the Revolution
In a certain sense the congressman
was right. Valley Forge was battle
field, though the agents Of death were
not the bullets Of the British redcoats.
Nakedness, hunger and disease, in con
spiracy with rigid season, killed sew
eral thousands Of men in the American
mcnt i'll the Pennsylvania valley near
Philadelphia. There was also large
list of men who might have been
marked as "missing.' These were the
deserters, chiefly men Of European
birth, it must be admitted, whose de-
sire for self preservation was stronger
than their devotion to the American
cause. Many who were American
born deserted, too, and officers re-
signed their commissions and went
home almost by battalions.
But 1t is to the lasting credit of
American patriotism that the bulk of
the army remained in camp-to starve
to death, to freeze to death, to die Of
disease brought on by nakedness and
hunger or to march away in the early
summer, fall upon the British and fol-
low them up until the final surrender
Of the latter at Yorktown.
Until the present generation Valley
Forge was rather vague name to the
average youth. Middle aged men Of
today began to learn something about
the great winter camp Of Washington's
army when the Centennial exhibition
Of 1875 disinterred this and other Rev
dictionary memories from the dust of
a cantury's neglect. 1t is a remarkable
fact that Valley Forge was utterly ig
nored and apparently forgotten by this
great nation until the approach Of the

He will be forty-two this autumn, and
was born while his father was secre-
tary of the Spanish embassy in Lon
don. On his mothers side he inherits
British blood, and he was educated in
England, at Baylis House, Clough, and
at st. Cuthbert's Roman Catholic col
lege, Ushaw, near Durham. He COM
pleted his studies ON the continent.
Residence in Spain, England, Austria,
Italy and France has given him init
mate knowledge Of those countries and
he converses in their respective Ian
guages with perfect tiuency. He was
elevated to the cardinalate, with the
title Of Santa Prassede, by Pope Plus
x. and was installed in the important
post Of papal secretary of state. One
Of the episodes In which the cardinal
recently figured was that Of the seizure
by the French government of the pri-
vate papers of Mgr. Montagnini and
their publication. They included the
private correspondence between him
and Cardinal Merry del Val. There

triotic citizens besttrred themselves,
there was a grand celebration at the
site of the old camp, a brilliant young
orator, Henry Armitt Brown of Phila-

| Washington's army spent exactly six
months in camp at Valley Forge. Sad
~ Worsted at the battle of the Brandy
wine in September and also defeated
at Germantown still later, Washington
marched his dispirited army to Val
ley Forge through fierce snowstorm
on the 10th of December, 1777. The
storm was a foretaste of what was to
come. That was an unusually severe
winter. The soldiers were scantily
clad when they arrived. In fact, it is
literally true that hundreds Of them
left their trail in blood along the
snowy roads as they marched to the
place Of encampment, which was sug-
gested to General Washington by Gen
eral Wayne, Mad Anthony" whose
home was but four miles away.
When the sufferings of that terrible
winter ended the Americans left Val
ley Forge and fell upon the British
army at Freehold, N. j., and fought
the brilliant engagement known in his
tory as the battle of Monmouth. From
that time on until Lord CORVALLIS sur
rendered at Yorktown, Va, the army
which had gone through the awful or
deal Of Valley Forge was victorious in
nearly every fight.

Valley Forge much to arouse his patri
otism. One Of the newer improve
