WHITEWASHED
AND PROMOTED
Ross and Horn Find Favor With
the Powers That Be in the
National Capital.
GREEN LOSES HIS PLACE
END OF IDAHO IRRIGATION
SCANDAL.
Especial to The HeraId1

Washington. April 13.-Secretary
Garfield today exploded the charges of
graft in the reclamation service in Ida
no by officially notifying Director New
ell that the accusations against d. w
Ross, and his assistant, Horn, had been
found to be without foundation and
then dismissed. The secretary followed
this announcement by promoting Ross
from $500 to $4,000 and Horn from
$4,000 to s., $500.
Charges against Ross and Horn were
preferred by Special Inspector Green
who spent some time in Idaho making
Investigations. Green based his charges
on statements made by contractors on
the Boise-Payette project. His con-
clusions were utterly disapproved by
Secretary Garfield. So erroneous was
Green i'm his report that the secretary
concluded that he was not competent

he was forthwith removed from the Of

tional, and given the insignificant Of

Newell Pleased.
Director Newell was deeply graft
fed at the secretary's action. In a
statement issued tonight. Newell says:
We have understood perfectly that
tie charges were attributed to parties
financially interested i'm discrediting
the engineers. The recent attacks were
made in an endeavOr to intimidate the
engineers and COeTce them into taking
d less positive position in protecting
government interests. These men have
bOasted that they could bring sufficient
influence TO compel the removal of en-
gineers who stood between them and
the payment of doubtful claims against
the government.
While proof is lacking Of the exist
ence Of actual conspiracy to injure
these engineers. all the clements Of col
fusion in this regard are found in state
mentS which have been made in unison
by number of men. Taken singly.
none of these statements would be
considered as worthy of much consid-
Grafton, but when combined they had
the appearance of piausibility
Careful analysis of the papers on
file in the department show this colIu-
sion probably stopped Just short of be
ing within reach of the law on the score
of libel. The communications are Of 4
character which. while undoubtedly Ii
belOus in the ordinary use of che word
may not be quite covered by law, so
the engineers and others who have been
the subject of attack may be unable
to obtain legal redress.
Some yellow journals have taken the
opportunity afforded by the attack ~
intimate that the entire reclamation
service was involved. Papers on file
do not contain any basis for such broad
charges"

moral over the natural religion. Every
step forward in the evolution of religion
has been in the direction of identifying
the object of religious worship with the
object of moral respect and obedience.
In true religion the love Of God and the
reverence for goodness are one and the
same thing.
These, then, appear to me to be the
mainsprings of Judaism. You will OBJ
serve that have stripped these ideas
of all of their rich vesture Of tradition
and symbolism. I wish to present them
in their essential meaning.-The Mac
cabean.

maintain themselves, and now that they
enjoy more abundant opportunity there
would seem to be no limit to their pos
sible success. But l have meant in dis
cussing this topic to lay stress upon it's
ethical aspect. 1t is not that the Jews
have made material capital out Of the
practice Of virtue, but that, possessing
virtue in the only true sense of that
term, they have enjoyed its proper
fruits.
2. Morality as Perfected Discipline
There is an old charge against the Jews
to the effect that they are legalists that
they have substituted the letter for the
spirit. The half-truth which this charge
conveys has obscured the real signif-
cance Of this aspect Of Jewish life. The
remarkable thing about the Jews re-
spect for the law is his delight in it. Nor
ality is at best stern business, for vir-
tue involves re-making of nature; but
this does not necessarily signify that the
law shall be regarded as alien and hos
tile. Indeed, the law is not understood
until it is loved. Thus we find the Jews
asking not that the law be remitted, but
that it be perfected in them. Their de-
iverance is not to be freedom from
harassing regulations, but an opportun-
ity to live more fully and completely un-
der their sway. Here again the Jew has
discovered and has habitually practiced
a fundamental moral truth.
3. The Moral League With God.-
After an early period Of development,
the Jewish religion became distinctly
and uncompromisingly moral religion
Their refusal to acknowledge the gods
Of other nations was due not to their own
national exclusiveness but to the neces-
sary exclusiveness Of moral truth. There
can be but one God because there is but
one justice; and to acknowledge false
gods is to perjure oneself. The religious
life is to consist in the practice of JUS
tice, and the expectation of it's extension
among all nations. The Creator and
Judge is to realize this end through the
submission and suffering Of his chosen
people. To serve God is "to do justly,
and to love mercy, and to walk humbly,"
in the patient hope of the fulfllment of
this mission. I suppose there can be no
doubt of the ultimate triumph of the

text, but will never adopt them for his
own guidance. Thrasymachus illus
trates his thesis by pointing out the great
advantage enjoyed by the opportunist
over the man who is embarrassed by al
legiance to maxims and ideals But
Socrates, on the other hand, meets the
sophist on his own ground and estab
fishes morals as nothing more nor less
than the very method Of conduct Or ra-
tional action. There is no such thing as
success without knowing what you want
and proceeding steadfastly and syste-
matically to realize it; and it is because
human nature is what it is and social re-
lations are what they are that temper
ance, justice and the other virtues have
proved themselves to be the only sure
means Of gaining any really important
end. This is fundamental, ethical truth,
and the Jews have never failed in
stinctively to appreciate it. Their re-
markable vitality is doubtless due in
part to physical characteristics, but is
also to be explained by their practical
recognition in all ages that the way Of
morals is the way of life. TO the Jews,
then, we look for the consistent prac-
tice Of the fundamental virtues, of their
modes of conduct which condition physi-
cal health, livelihood and social stability.
They understood the Importance Of diet
etics, Of the exercising Of care in the Sc
lection and preparation Of food long be-
fore the rise of physiological chemistry.
AS is well known, they are instinctively
and habitually temperate. Their com
paratively low death rate under most adj
verse economic conditions is due largely
to an almost total absence of alcoholism
and its attendant evils. Again, the
Jews understand the great vital import
ance of the institution of the family.
They have sanctified it by ritual, and
have made it the center Of the firmest
and most intimate relationships Thus
they have protected their women and
cared for their children. Again, they
have always recognized the practical i'm
portance of education; and though they
have for the most part been entirely de-
pendent upon their own traditions and
have lacked resources and facilities, they
have never failed to praise and to prac~
tice the early cultivation of the mind and
will. Finally, we may note the success
of the Jews in all matters affecting live
Ehood The virtue of thrift, upon which
the whole economic structure Of society
depends, has never failed them. They
understand the Importance Of the eco
nomic independence, resourcefulness and
security Of the individual. They under
stand that sound material development
consists in the gradual accumulation and

BIG CIRCUS
WELL BILLED
Which Means That an Immense
Crowd Will BE Here to At
tend the Show.

The second advertising car of the
MISUNDERSTANDING show arrived in
Clarksburg yesterday at noon, hav-
ing been held up at New Martins
vile on account of the wreck. The
car left for Fairmont early this
morning but several men were left
over to do country routes out OF
this city and will rejoin the car
there tonight.
The Observation-Disclosures Show
certainly believes in billing. The
country for mile and miles in every
direction has been billed for Clarks-
burg and the chances are the city
win be crowded with visitors on
show day
Grafton, Weston, Buckhannon,
Salem, shinnston. Wallace, West
Union, Lumberport and other places
will all send big delegations and
it now looks as If the crowd would
be the largest ever gathered here.
The Hagenbeck-W Wallace Show is
striking here just the right time
of the year. A circus played al
Warrington and Grafton late in
April but of course that was be.
fore the arrival of summer, and the
crowds were not as large as they
should have been.
Up-to-date there has been eighty.
four men here in advance of the
show and there are number "a
come yet. The car here yesterday
hammered the city, touched UP the
bill posting and hung some add.
tional Autographs. w. S. Dun.
nington had charge of the men,
about twenty IN all.
The billers sleep on the car but
get their meals at the hotels. The
talk around the Glen Elk last night
would have puzzled any ono not "a.
miiar with bill posting jargon and
some thought it was some Maccabee
stunt. Il posted five hundred sheets
on that route" one man would say.
Sheets is the way they measure
bill posting. A sheet is 2sx44
inches-a little larger than two
pages Of the Telegram. The next
man would speak of a "daub" by
which he meant a barn or shed ON
which they posted bills. One man
spoke Of giving some one pair of
fakes" by which he meant he gave
two tickets for the permission to
paste bills.

WELL OBSERVED HERE
Work of Decorating Graves
Attended to in the Morning
Exercises at the Colise-
um Preceded by a Parade.

Hundreds of men who followed the
battle banners of Grant, sherman,
Sheridan and other leaders of the
great rebellion, who are sleeping their
long sleep in the various cemeteries
Of this county were today remembered
by loving comrades, waiting patiently
the sounding of taps. and by crate
full fellow citizens. On every grave
where floats a miniature flag, flowers
were placed. Some of these graves
are the last resting places of soldiers
of later generation who fought un-
der Chaffee in Cuba and under Law
ton in the Philippines-men who fol-
lowed the eagles of the republic over
the seas.
At the G. A. r. hall this morning
there was a busy scene. The Women's
Relief corps, the Ladies' Auxiliary to
the Sons of Veterans and white hair
ed veterans received thousands OF
flowers of all varieties, school child
rem bringing in most of them. These
flowers were loaded into wagons and
were taken to the cemeteries where
loving hands strewed them on the
graves of the soldier dead.
The sight of a column of troops
clad in service uniforms and march
ing along with a swinging stride al
ways stirs the emotions of those who
gaze at the fighting men, but this
spectacle does not occasion thrill
like the sight of grey haired and
white haired men, bent with age and
from the hardships OF camp and bat
tie, as they march along with halting
stride under the sun caressed folds
of the old flag.
Hundreds See Parade.
This afternoon hundreds of men,
women and children watched the vet
erans of Sol Meredith post and the
younger soldiers of the republic who
fought in the Spanish war, as they
swung down Main street. 1t is an
annual sight to the people of this city
but each year it becomes a more i'm
pressive one-a sight which grips the
heart but silences the tongue, for the
Thin blue fighting line grows small

veterans swung down Main street
with the precise, rythmic stride of the
trained soldier. These veterans are
still men in the prime of life who can
again go forth for the cause of the
republic. But the men, who followed
them-Grant's legionaries-had lost
the swing of the marching stride and
their progress was slow and hating.
At the coliseum this afternoon
Memorial day services were observed.
There was a large crowd in the build
ing, which was beautifully decorated
with flags and bunting. Judge Jos.
