AS to Love Letters.

A lot Of sticky, sickening and
sordid Iove-letters are being pub
Hshed to the world as features Of
two spectacular suits at law. OF
course, we are all reading them.
That's the reason they are being
published, instead Of being passed
over in the news accounts Of these
two trials. But we owe it TO our
selves not to be imposed upon by
them.
For surely such letters prove
nothing as to the majority of man
and woman kind. We have ali writ
ten love letters, from our pima
fore and lmee-trousers days til
now. We have all written high
flown flub in our time. But none OF
US, or practically none of US, have
written for gain: none of US have
been pouring out counterfeit senti-
nent for seal coats or hush money
In nuggets of $4,000 each. On the
contrary, the normal man and wOm-
an fill their letters Of this sort with
honest, true-blue unselfishneas. and
the best part of it is that they mean
Gvery word they write-at least for
a time.

Our Continued Disgrace.

ITO the continued disgrace Of the
United States, the wreck of the old
battleship Maine still filters the
harbor of Havana. A dozen efforts
have been directed upon Congress
90 obtain money for raising the
hulk. They have all failed. Now,
1t is whispered about that some of
the authorities fear the lifting of
the hull to the surface viii disclose
that 1t was sunk by an explosion
from within rather than from with
out.
Rear Admiral Luce disposes of
this fear in the right way. Says he:
Now, I hold It is a duty We owe 70
ourselves as nation. a duty We owe
20 the navy, and to the nautical world
IN general, that the true cause Of the
disaster should be determined beyond
doubt This can only be done By
raising the ship as provided for IN
your bill As people We certainly
have the moral courage 10 seek the
truth and accept the verdict. even
though IL be against US, assuming for
the moment that we have been mis-
taken in our theory Of an external
cause.
Any other position is an affront
TO the courage as well as to the
honor Of the whole American peo-
pie. If we were wrong about the
Maine. we shall not salve our self
respect by refusing to find out
about it. If we were right, we
shall not add to our self-respect by
refusing to test our judgment. In
any case, we are bound to know the
right.
Congress has not refused to ap-
propriRte money TO raise the old
Maine through any fear America
might be found in the wrong. Con
gress would not dare go before the
American people with any such ex-
PLANTATION as that. It's delay is due
TO two fRctOrs-the lack of urgent
need to move now rather than next
year or the year after; the far dis
lance which separates the harbor of
Havana and the Capitol building Of
the United States. These are the
real causes, not fear, and it is per
fectly plain TO every loyal Ameri-
can that they do not lessen by jot
or title the discredit which Is put
upon his country with every day the
wreck obtrudes its melancholy out
lines on the landscape.
