lincoln and Beecher

To THE EDfToR OF TIE sUN-Sir, Il seems
TO me that In the very interesting talk Of the
veteran artist Conant in THE Sun Of last
Sunday there are two errors worth noting
Mr.. Conant says There ls another Beecher
that ought to be painted-the Beeoher stand
ing calmly facing down that Manchester mob
when Lincoln sent him over TO England to
stem the tide OF sympathy that was running
there for the Southern cause"
Lincoln never sent Beecher TO England
The great preacher was utterly tired out
with his efforts through pulpit platform and
press, from the Fremont campaign In 1855
TO the dlscouragiI days Of the war In 1852
He went to Europe for rest. As he passed
through England. friends Of the North urged
him to speak there, but he was In no condi-
tlon for It and passed on TO the Continent.
On his return. however, 1t seemed 10 him un-
fair TO have our liberal English friends do
all the fighting for us In that country and
he then yielded TO their wish and consented
10 the series Of addresses In Manchester, Edin-
burRh, Glasgow, Liverpool and London
one great address In 'fve parts-whch the
world has since acclaimed a. one Of It's mas
terpieces Of oratory.
In 1862. when this occurred, Mr.. Beecher was
forty-nine years Of age-hair black, eyes
blue. form sturdy but agile. the embodiment
OF q man at his best. In the prime Of his ma

COhtnuOn mat NaVy Yard COnstruCtiOn !,
Cheaper TIlAn Private Yard.

To THE EDITOR or The SUN-Sir, The
Secretary Of the Navy has given out state.
ment OF comparative cost OF battleship con.
struction In Government yards and by private
builders. by which he seeks 10 show. for thr
edihcatlon Of Congress, that 1t is cheaper Ia
build by contract than for the Government
TO do its own work The examples given
the battleAhip Connecticut. built at the navy
yard IN Brooklyn. and the Louisiana, bull
by the Newport News shipbullding Company
rather prove that With equal conditions the
vessel could be built more economically bv
the navy yard.
In the hrst place Il must be remembered
that the Connecticut was built In New York
city, which showed poor Judgment On TN
part Of the Bureau Of Construction, as labor
here IL much higher than At Newport New,
and the working day is shorter.
In the second place the naval constructor
at the New York yard was put at q decided
dlsadvAntARe owing to lack Of proper ma
ehinery and equipment. much Of which II was
necessary 10 build especially for him before
he could commence work. Opposed 10 him
was a modern. up to date shipyArd. perfectly
equipped and organized and ready 10 beRlu
the moment the contract was signed.
The Connecticut was splendidly built and
was completed with fewer hours Of actua
labor than was the Louisiana. But the labor
bills were necessarily higher, as men worked
an eight hour day for the regular union wages
As against cheaper labor working one TO Two
hours longer a man q day At Newport News.
AZ II was, the Connecticut coat only abou
9 per cent more than the Louisiana, and u
the work had beenN done at Norfolk, where
cheaper labor was obtainable. she would have
actually cost less.
IL would be interesting 10 have another
competition Of this kind. II conditions should
be made more equai and q southern navy
have real authority 70 carry on his work and
not be subject TO the whlms and concelts OF
a bureau chief Of little practical experience
who, not being upon the ground. Is unQuali-
fed todirect such important work.

4 Very FOrlorn Hone.

A fashion in womens headgear or any
other gear was never put down by CEN
sure or assault. The arbiters OF fashion
know their power and woman's submis-
sion-nay, her delight in conforming
herself to their DEGREES. Arevolt against
the position of the North Star would be
as rational as to cry out against a fashion
for women with any thought that they
would renounce ii. So we look upon this
rebellion against the circumference and
superstructure Of the present style Of hat
as i'll judged and futile, the forlornest
Of hopes
A preachers association in Delaware
has declared war upon the successor Of
the picture hat upon its size, its trim
mings and its monopoly Of space. The
embattled clergymen complain that 1t
shuts out a view Of the preacher, and
they sound a warning that IL the women
refuse TO discard the hat men will not
come 10 church. In New Jersey minis
ter exhorts the women to put away their
conspicuous hats or take the RESPONSE
bility Of the men becoming backsllders.
AT least check your hats In the cloak
room, urges this pastor, Bless him, has
the church a cloakroom large enough TO
accommodate the hats?
1t is refreshing to turn TO one good
deed Of the big hat. In a church at st.
Louis the altar curtains caught fire and
there was no panic in the congregation,
because the hats Of the women in front
interposed like screen between the altar
and the wOrshippers behind; no one could
zee the fire except the women in the first
row, and they were 80 intent on inspect
ing one another's hats that the flames
were put out before an alarm could be
raised. The officiating clergyman after
ward said that the abused hat probably
saved scores from injury and possible
death Think Of this, ye railers at the
hat that won't come of.

FROM Jefferson. huer 70 he EOd Of BDclon
Federal InJunctlons Against state
Officers


An important bill to regulate the grant
ing Of injunctions by Federal Judges has
just been passed unanimously by the
Senate in consequence of the decision of
the Supreme Court of the United States
in the case Of the Attorney-General Of
Minnesota
That case arose ont of a suit by GER
tain stockholders in the Northern Pacific
Railway Company who sought to restrain
the Attorney-General Of Minnesota and
the members Of the Railroad Commission
Of that State from enforcing a regulation
fixing the rates to be charged for the
transportation Of passengers and goods
upon the railroads under the jurisdic-
ton Of the commission. The Attorney
General disregarded a temporary in
junction which was granted in the suit
contending that the Federal court had
no power to grant it under the Eleventh
Amendment to the Constitution, because
the action although nominally against
him as Attorney-General was really a
suit against State, which may not be
brought unless the State itself consents
10 be sued.
The Supreme Court of the United
States held that the Attoney-G General
Of Minnesota was mistaken in his posi-
tion in this respect and fully sustained
the power Of the Circuit Court TO enjoin
his proceedings as a State officer. A
very able dissenting opinion was written
by Mr. Justice HARLAN whose argu-
ment has commanded the respect even
OF those who have differed from his
views most radically, The decision OF
the court the other way has naturally
provoked criticism from the old fashioned
advocates Of State rights but there has
been no disposition in Congress TO dis
pOte the fnality or conclusivcness Of the
determination. The legislation in the
Senate 10 which we refer is merely de-
signed to regulate the power OF Federal
Judges in granting injunctions against
State officers 80 that il shall not be
exercised in any case by a single Judge
sitting alone or without notice 10 the
defendants except under extraordinary
circumstances.
The bill provides in substance that no
injunction restraining the enforcement
Of any statute Of any State through the
Ngenoy Of any State officer shall be
granted by any Circuit Court OF District
Court Of the United States or by any
Judge thereof on the ground that the
statute Is unconstitutional unless the
application for the injunction shall be
presented In the first instance TO Circuit
Judge and shall be heard and determined
by three Judges, of whom two shall be
Circuit Court Judges and the third either
a Circuit or District Judge, and unless
q majority Of the three Judges shall con-
cur In granting the application. Five days
notice Of the application must be given
TO the Governor and Attorney General
Of the State and TO the defendants in the
suit, except in cases where a majority !
Of the Judges think that irreparable loss
and damage may result 10 the plaintiff |
unless 4 temporary restraining order is
granted, in which event a majority of |
the Judges can grant such temporary |
restraining order, which is to remain in

secrated himself TO the task Of threshinp
out the mystery. He girded up his lolni
and bulged into the very midst Of things
Now we have the information that the
much Wanted stowaway didn't get
aboard at Trinidad or elsewhere and
didn't dlsembsrk In Peru or any other
plaoo. Whereupon Assistant Secretary
NEwBEBRY bestrides the situation like a
more or less reduced Colossus and bids
us come 10 him for consolation.
Secretary METcALP is due on the Pa
ciho Coast early next month. He Is
going 10 receive the huzzas Of the eI-
cited populaoe, incidentally examining
the- Amor beltA and throwing upon that
question the light Of a completely au-
thorized official opinion. Whether he
can overShad9w the magnificent inter-
vention Of JIM JRFFBIRs or the eXtraor-
dinary performances OF the school chill
dren and the assorted citizens Of Los
Angeles and other places we do not
pretend 10 say. He is going there, how
ever, and we wish him well.
The difference between Secretary NET
CALF and-his Assistant secretary-and
he ought TO receive credit for ths-is
that he goes right to the spot for the
facts about the armor belts, whereas
Mr. NEwBERRY has disposed Of the beau
tful Creole stowaway without leaving
his Office in Washington. Both matters,
Of course, are Of unutterable importance,
but for this once il never again Secretary
METcALF In our opinion leads easily.

Northern New YOrk's Tercentennlal
On July 4, 1909, SAMUEL DE CHAMPLAIN
and his companions discovered the lake
which now bears his name. The pro.
posal TO observe the three hundredth
anniversary Of that event is excellent
Even more excellent Is the proposal Ia
acquire and hold permanently as prop.
erty Of the State such historic sites az
Crown Point, Ticonderoga and others OF
more or less importance and interest.
In a report Of the Lake Champlain
Tercentenary Commission this comment
is made
In discovering the lake that bears bis name
cHAMPtAN also discovered the region that became
New York State.
He was the nrst white man 70 behold any por
ton Of our State or 10 set foot therein.
His visit In July, 1909. was not only the begin.
ming OF recorded history in New York State but
Of new era for the Western continent"
Surely this event is worthy OF fitting
and permanent memorial The impor-
tance Of the Champlain discovery is not
at all modified by the Hudson discovery
Of few months later or by the fact Of
earlier and more important settlement
in the south than in the north. This
summer Canada will celebrate the found
ing Of Quebec and fund is being raised
for the purchase Of the historic Plains
Of Abraham. The many conflicts in the
Lake Champlain region were a part Of
the struggle Of which WoLFE's defeat Of
MoNTcALM was the climax. The British
victory at Tconderoga in 1858 gave
England control in that vicinity until
l775, when ETHAN ALLEN made his ap-
pearance on May 10 and demanded the
surrender Of the fort in the name OF the
Great JEHOVAH and the Continental
Congress
We are addicted TO the alleged decora-
ton Of our cities by the erection of stat
ues. Here and there we erect a monu-
ment. Historical societies essay the
preservation of historic buildings. Some
Of the notable battlefelds Of the civil
war have been bought and are held as
national parks. There are a number Of
spots connected with our earlier history
which should be the property Of either
the State or the nation. As a people we
are far more deeply concerned in secur-
ing an appropriation for a new public
building than we are in acquiring and
suitably marking even the more impor-
tant scenes in our early history.
All that Ia done in that direction is
commendable, and it is pity that there
is not greater public interest and
activity.
