Disinterested Effort.

From the london Times.

shining success is the result OF disinterest-
ed effort. That law may seem a paradox

PluckY Seamen.

The news reports of the fire at the navy
yard last evening Indicate that the sailors
from the Mayfiower did their work as a
salvage corps. In clearing the burning
building of explosives. in a spirit Of per-
feet discipline. 1t appears that they
obeyed the order TO pull out the cases Of
powder and other dangerous stuff without
excitement and with the same alacrity
that marks their usual performance Of
routine on board ship. These incidents
speak we'll for the morale Of the American
naval service. AS a matter OF fact the
naval records are filled with just such
instances of heroism and bravery and eff
fective training. During the war with
Spain there was no lack of volunteers for
any dangerous service. When Hobson
took the collier Merrimac into the mouth
of Santiago harbor he could have had ten
times as many men for that perilous duty
as he actually needed.
When an explosion occurred recently in
the turret of one OF the battle ships the
men who were uninjured showed the
greatest bravery in rescuing their COM
rades. The same spirit was evinced when
the gunbcat Bennington was destroyed by
a boiler explosion in Californian waters

dangerous service and they are at all

While 1t is late in the session. the hope
remains as long as the final adjournment
is postponed that Congress before dissolv-
ing will pass joint resolution turning
over to the delegates the use of the two
structures most suitably adapted to the
purposes of the congress. the Capitol and
the new House of Representatives office
building. 1t would in no wise detract
from the dignity of these two buildings
that they should be employed for pur-
pose affecting the welfare of the entire
human race. AS it is, the housing of the
congress has become very serious prob
lem. While the two unfinished public
buildings designated by Congress will
serve for the display of the exhibits, no
provision has been made for the plenary
sessions or for the meetings of the va
rious sections, in which the real work

of the attendance in France that there

Platforms.

Judge Parker for chairman of the plat
form committee at Denver? That would
suit the anti-Bryanites to a dot. That
would mean valuable point scored in the
fight for a deiverance to their taste.
Naturally. Mr.. Bryan. who has been In
terrogated on the subject. denies that he
has given his consent to the arrange
ment.
Judge Parker may be New York's rep
resenrative on that committee. The choice
would be a good one. No man better I'M
derstands. or more thoroughly subscribes
TO. the principles which New York is
pleased TO call democratic. And his abi-
ity TO put them on paper is beyond dis
pute. 1t may be, too that he will take
with him to Denver a draft of what New
York would like to see adopted as the
party's bid for votes this year But that
a convention composed largely of MIR.
Bryans followers will accept such a
paper. Or any material part of 1t. is the
NEST unlikely thing in the world.
A national platform Is never the product
IF one pen. The platform committee must
consider all sorts of propositions couched
IN all sorts of terms. Its table is piled
high with suggestions from many sources
These are examined and discussed. some
are rejected in toto. Others are changed
10 conform to the committees opinion. In
the end mosaic is produced. and upon
that the party's candidates stand.
At Philadelphia in 1890 the republican
case was clear it was thought safe to
prepare the platform in advance. and the
task was committed to Charles Emory
Smith. writer of force and finish, and
an experienced hand at platform king
Those who saw Mr.. Smiths work pro.
nounced Il a striking performance. But ii
did not pass muster with the platform
committee. The deliverdnce reported to

Smiths excellent platform was wrecked
by the committee. and something alto

4 Queer Boom.

The good people OF the little Georgia
town where the Presidents mother was
born are going forward with their sem
timental movement for Mr.. Roosevelt's
denomination. 1t is stated that thou
sands Of signatures have been obtained
to the petitions that are in circulat ion,
and that when they are presented at
Chicago. which is the present purpose.
their size and character will command
attention. Perhaps.
Undoubtedly there is sincere admira-
ton for Mr.. Roosevelt as a man In his
mothers native state. He possesses the
characteristics of the maternal stock
The Bullocks show resolution, and en-
terprise. and staying qualities. They
have been progressive citizens in times
Of peace. and fighting men in times Of
war. Not less game and worthy are
the Roosevelts. but 1T Is but natural
for the Georgians in appraising the
President to take first thought Of his
southern side.
Part of the warmth of the present
expression Of this feeling probably is
due to the resentment that was pro-
voked by the Booker Washington lunch
con episode. At that time Mr. Roosevelt
was severely censured throughout the
south, and especially so in Georgia
Since then, however. he has twice
visited the south. and on both occasions
laid himself out to captivate his hosts
A change of feeling was effected. and
one sign OF 1t is afforded by this little
third term Jolly" which should not
and will not. be taken too seriously.
Should the Chicago convention respond
favorably to this request and make Mr.
Roosevelt its nominee the politicians who
control the south would most heartily re-
joice; and no men anywhere would paint
the perils of a third term in colors more
lurid AS their own section would be
safe for the Denver nominee. they would
reinforce by their presence their brethren
In the other sections. and help make
third-termism the paramount issue. And
what would they do If reminded of these
sentimental petitions? Laugh. Just laugh.
A seasoned campaigner Is not to be en-
barrassed by little thing like that.
The republican leaders who will
shape matters at Chicago are under
no misapprehension as respects the situa-
ton In the south. If they should decide
to put the standard again into Mr.. Roose-
yelt's hands II will not be through the
hope of carrying any of the lower south
ern states, for they will understand that
to be impossible. The machinery of cleo
tions which works to but one end. and
always unerringly. would be as disastrous
to Mr.. Roosevelt's candidacy as to that Of
any other member of the republican party.

Memorial Day.

Although forty-three wears have passed
since the last shot was fired In the war
between the sections the spirit which
prevails on Memorial day burns as bright
~ as ever. inspiring the present genera
ton to pay tributes to the men who sac
rificed themselves for their country. lay
ing down life bravely and periodically in
order that the Union might live. In
few more years the veterans will all have
passed. The ranks are thinning daily. and
soon the responsibility for maintaining
Decoration day as national institution
will rest exclusively upon those who
heard no sound of war but who know CT
the trying days of the sixties only by
tradition Yet it is not to be doubted
that Memorial day of decades hence will
be as potent an influence for the national
upift as II is at present. During the
years that have passed since the close
of the war the organizations of veterans
themselves have given rise to other or
CARNATIONS. comprised of the wives and
sons and daughters of the men who car
red the muskets in the civil strife. These
are today the mainstays of the occasion.
They have taken over the task with zeal
and are now engaged in decorating the
graves of the soldiers in a spirit of love
and reverence and of appreciation for
their contribution to the national well
fare.
Never before since the war was the
United States so distinctly a nation as
II Is today. 4 few weeks ago there met
in this city the governors of almost all
states of the Union. They discussed prob
lens CT vital Importance to the national
welfare. The country at large suddenly
awak aned to the fact that the republic
was in session. that state boundaries had
fallen and that in the best and most sig
nifcant sense the United States of Amer
lea was at work upon its problems. The
war which today's ceremonies comment
crate in the spirit of highest patriotism
been for that costly but necessary con-
fict the problems of this day. If indeed
there remained nation. would be of far
grayer import than those which confront
the people of this generation. 1t was
lamentable that the craftsmanship of the
fifties could not reach a solution of the
difficulties of that time and that the test
of strength was finally applied by the sec
tfons. But the issue was met in
manly spirit. and the decision was irrev-
ocable. Now the issues of peace have
been evolved. and. thanks to the intrepid
spirit of the men who fought in the
sixties, the spirit that permitted of no
compromises. that went to the length
of ultimate decision this Is today a united
country. and these ceremonies on this
occasion bespeak the Americanism that
knows no schism and the patriotism un-
confined by state or sectional lines.
