Case OF Sampson and Schley
You must remember that Dewey
was captain when he commanded
the fleet mt Manila, and Sampson
was not an admiral Mt Santiago.
Neither was Schley. See what pol
tiles did for those two. Had there
Baen no politics both might have
BEEN made vice admirals.
So long as the President is COM
-mander-inchief of the army and navy
rs the fathers intended. and as he
should continue to be. he can always
assign capable men to command n
fleet. no matter what the system of
promotion. Admirals may be set
down or superseded. but there is no
necessity for degrading them. Re-
move ambition and there Is not much
incentive left to the men who gave
their lives to their country's cause"

SOME DAY, o SEEKER OF DREAMS

Some day. o Seeker of Dreams. they
will seek even us!
Some day they will wake, Fellow
Singer, and hunger and want
For the Ways to the Lonelier Height.
SO let us. Shy Weaver of Beauty, take
heart,
For out of their dust they will call to
us yet!
Let us walt, and sing, and be wise.
AS the sea has waited and sung.
AS the hills through the night have
been wise!
For we are the Bringers of Light, and
the Voices of Love,
Aye. we are the SootheIs of Pain, the
Appraisers OF Death,
The Dusk and the Star and the Clean
and the Lonliest Peak!
And when they have found and seen,
and know not whittier they trend,
They will come TO us crying aloud like
child in the night;
And when they have learned of our
lips.
Still back to our feet they will grope
For that ultimate essence and core
OF all song,
TO usher them empty and naked
then, out to the unanswering
stars,
Where Silence and Dreaming and
Music are one

The Daily Leader is in receipt of a
letter from John Huntamer, Madison
pioneer, who left Madison year age
to try life, temporarily, on the Pacific
coast. Notwithstanding Mr. Hunta-
mer is the owner of a fine farm home
in Lake county, he has been employed
as night watclman in fish packing
establishment at Astoria, Ore In his
letter Mr.. Huntamer refers to the fact
that he has not missed a night from his
duties as watchman since accepting the
position, and is in good health. His
work has consisted largely in keeping
myself company in which have sue
ceeded excellently. The winter has
not been cold here although old settlers
say it was the coldest winter they ever
experienced. | think, however, this
is habit the people have Of talking to
make a greenhorn think they have a
fine climate, which they ought to have
a. there is little else desirable in this
part of Ores Jn-except fish. The
members of my family are all well, the
girls attending school. Last week we
enjoyed visit with Mr.. and Mrs. M.
E. Hart, of Madison. They are the
first Madison people we have seen since
our arrival here. l have not seen very
much of the country outside of Astoria,
bat my impression is that | wouli not
care to engage in farming here. The
people say 20 to 40 acres is all man
needs for a farm and | think they are
right when they come to clear it and
plow. Lumber is $1S per thousand fol-
dimensions Living expenses about
the same as in Madison. Ny family is
well pleased with their surroundings
and do not agree with me that Madison
is a better home town than Astoria.
