The request for meeting is suffi-
Gent evidence that the northern clubs
are willing to transact business with
the southern clubs, though it was de-

policy had been mapped out to follow

GOOD FOR JACK.

OF course everybody has been watch.
ing with the utmost interest the prog.
ress of the battleship feet now on It's
way TO the Pacific. The first leg OF
the voyage was finished at Port Of
Spain. in the British Islands of Trini-
dad, and the second 10 now complete
by the arrival at Brazil, where the
Government authorities in Rio de ia
metro are laying themselves out to do
honor to the feet. Between New
York and Rio there has been but one
day lost from the schedule. This was
due, 1t Is said to defective coal ship
ped at Trinidad, This speaks pretty
we'll for the engineering end OF the
feet, especially in view of the criti-
cism that has recently been leveIed
at the navy. But one Of the equally
pleasing things Is the compliment that
was paid the men by the Governor Of
Trinidad. The arrival of the feet
there was greeted with complete OH.
cial courtesy, but with mighty little
general enthusiasm. II Is hard to say
Just what the residents of the island
expected, but perhaps their experience
with sailors of their own and other
nationallties was not such as to
cause them to welcome $1,000 strange
sailors being turned loose ashore In
large patches. II Is fair to say that
Jack ashore is not always the most
desirable citizen. But the men Of the
American feet seem to have been on
extra good behavior, and before the
squadron was ready TO sail they had
been made thoroughly welcome in
Trinidad. Before the vessels sailed
Governor Jackson of Trinidad wrote q
letter to Admiral Evans commenting
among other things on the conduct
Of the sailors ashore. A part Of this
letter the Admiral slgnalled to the
vessels after they were under way.
The comment Of the Governor on the
men was that while on short they had
established a record that would be
hard TO equal and impossible to beat"
That Is the sort Of an endorsement
that the American people would like
to hear from every port ut which the
feet touches. There Is more than
little relation between that sort OF
discipline and sobriety and the ability
to attend strictly to the business that,
a navy IL built for. Good work, Jack,
