ABOUT OUR RIVERS.

II may have been a bnnder ON the
part Of the News-Democrat yester-
day. but 1t was an inadvertent ad-
mittance of the truth to its columns,
when 1t commented on the RepubIf-
can waterways plank as "a straight
forward declaration of friendship"
and on the Democratic plank in these
words: ION the other hand list to

IL was endeavoring to show how
friendly national Democracy Is TO
that hazy dream of deep ship canal
from Chicago to New Orleans; but
unfortunately IL got the platforms
confused and had the Republican
party digging that canal and. the
Democratic party Endorse the move
ment inaugurated by the administra-
ton for the conservation of national
resources"
Now, the truth is the national
Democratic party has never Endorsed

has never unequivocally and specifi-

At the recent historians congress
in Berlin, Prof. Jesse Benedict Carter
lectured on "Romos. Romulus and
Remus," showing that the whole idea
of the name of the founder of Rome
arose among the Greeks in the fourth
century B. c. This name being Ro-
mos, the Romans transformed It into
Romulus. and then invented the well
known legend about the twins, put
ting Romulus ahead and naming the
other twin Remus.
