Bryan and Patronage.

Somebody, remembering the Schley-
Roosevelt episode. started a report that
Mr.. Bryan, If elected. would appoint Adj
miral Schley Secretary of the Navy. Mr..
Bryan promptly replied that he was not
at present making up a cabinet and there
was no warrant for the statement
Should he reach the White House with
out making single promise of office. Mr..
Bryan Will yet be sorely beset on that
score. His twelve years of leadership
have been marked by unexampled evil
dences of devotion on the part of his fol-
lowers, and in every state in the Union
there are men whose chief claim to dis
tinction among their neighbors is that
they stand very close to Bryan" And
the expectation is that under BRYAN
administration they will either be called
to high Office themselves, or else be made

is not sensitive man. AS boss he
cannot afford to yield to that sort of feel
ing He remembers all that Judge Taft
said about him several campaigns ago,
but, to him, what are the lambastings of
yesteryear? Boss Cox is obeying the poet
ical adjuration. He is acting in the living
present, heart within, and the offices over
head. Judge Taft wants TO be President.
and Boss Cox wants to elect his local
ticket in Hamilton county. 1t is a time
when republicans must stand together,
and Boss Cox wants to stand with Judge
Taft. There is no risk in saying that he
will be permitted to do SO.

Some really went to promote their healtn

atmosphere or Saltier winds. Some went
to broaden their view by looking into
other cities and other countries. Many
went away to have an unrestrained and
a riproaring frolic. Very many went away
in compliance with that sentiment, grown
so strong of late years. which ordains
that everybody to be anybody must go
away to somewhere. no matter where,

Really, Washington is q town of en-
trancinS interest if one but gets inside the
subject-if one comprehends the wonderful
development that has gone on since the
city site was a group of farms and the
wonderful development that is taking
place nov.
The great things of Washington appear
commonplace to Washington people. They
see them so often that they do not see
them at all. They ride by the Capitol

corridors Of the majestic old pile where

They seldom stop to read the inscriptions

numbers to the pious shade of the close

or to the splendid grounds of the Catholic
University. They neglect the Soldiers

perhaps their only comment is that the
roads are good.

Know Washington.

At the recent banquet of the Interstate
Association of Live Stock Sanitary Boards
one of the speakers, responding to the
toast Washington" is reported TO have
said that though he had lived here for
thirteen years, many q sightseer of one
week had seen more of the beauties of the
National capital than he.
The disposition to look over ones glasses
is manifestly human. To most men things
that are far off seem most interesting.
Distance rot only lends enchantment, but
seems TO magnify things.
There is no doubt that the man from
New York. or San Francisco, or Pumpkin
Center. or Squash Corners who comes to
Washington and with guide and guide
book walks harder than Weston TO see the
sights is often as effectively educated on
the subject OF his own town as many

Chanler and Hughes.

The New York democrats acted with
unanimity at Rochester, and nominated
for governor a man of high personal
merit Mr.. Chanler is much respected
wherever known. Mr.. Bryan praises MIN
for an excellent quality. With large prl-
waite fortune he has interested himself
in public affairs and shown desire TO
be useful to the state. He might have
gore in for fashion. or for a high score
at polo, or settled down as a club swell.
But he took the high and serious side OF
things and has made a name Tor him.
self among men of purpose.
He was, moreover, his partys most
available man. The suggestions of the
names of Judge Parker, Judge Herrick,
Mr. Stanchfield and David B. Hill were
not happy Defeat was written against
all four-Judge Parker for President, and
the others for Governor of New York. Mr..
Chanler had victory to his credit. He
had won in the latest trial between the
two parties in the state. and in office had
acquitted himself well. All things con-
sidered he had good claims upon the at
tention he received.
But the question for the voters of .>ew
York now is, How does Mr.. Chanler COM
pare with Mr.. Hughes? Or is there any
sort of comparison? Mr.. Hughes was
elected governor at the time MIR. Chanler
was elected lieutenant governor He was
stronger in that poll than Mr. Chanler.
He has carried himself in Office as to
receive the praise of Mr. Chanler and
many other democrats. Only the other
day the acting mayor of New York city.
a democrat, introduced Mr.. Hughes to
an audience as the best governor the
state had known in years Undoubtedly
Mr. Hughes has impressed himself most
favorably upon his fellow-citiZens of all
parties
The proposition is, therefore, Shall Mr..
Hughes with record and character
which Mr. Chanler himself has praised be
retired in favor of Mr.. Chanler and his
promises? 1t has been made plain that
in office Mr.. Hughes is his own man. The
state gets the benefit of his best abilities,
which are of a high order. He is one of
the best specimens of the Embossed ex-
ecutive the country has ever known. He
wears his own hat. and does his own
thinking under it.
Mr.. Chanler, clean and attractive as he
is. has had little experience in affairs
The office he holds is of small conse-
quence. 1t is not possible to tell what
sort of governor he would prove to be
from the sort of lieutenant governor he
is. He must, therefore, be judged by his
surroundings. If elected he will owe his
place to Charles F. Murphy and Fingy
Corners, and they are the sort of men to
assert themselves. Would Mr. Chanler
withstand them? And If he did could he
make any progress with any policies he
might bring forward of his own?
The issue is Hughes against the demo-
cratic machine. Do the people want an
other term of the man now serving them,
or change with the office of governor
probably put into the holding company of
Murphy and Corners?

Wireless on Sailing Ships.

The item of news in last nights Star
concerning the equipment with wireless
outfit of a schooner in local waters might
have been passed over lightly by an in
different reader. 1t is, however sug-
gestive of the general use in navigation to
which wireless telegraphy will probably
be put. Perhaps in the time of men now
living this twentieth century marvel will
be applied to all craft that ply the seas
The news item in question recited that
the schooner Pendleton Sisters of New
York, now in port discharging Maine ice,
Is the only sailing vessel afioat, under any
flag, equipped with a wireless telegraph
outfit. The aerial wires stretch from the
foretopmast to the mizzen and then con-
meet with the receiving and sending in
struments in the captains cabin. On the
voyage down the coast the craft caught
many messages from other ships, and off
Cape Henry was in communication with
the operator there many hours before
sighting the entrance to the Chesapeake
Ii seems but a year or ago that the
wireless telegraph came into practical
use. a few of the show ships of the more
important transatlantic passenger lines
were QUILTED with the apparatus. The
utility of the equipment was quickly
demonstrated, and it was installed in ship
after ship till it has come to be a usual
feature of deep sea passenger craft.
There is no doubt that before the earth
rolls many times round the sun all steam
ers doing passenger business and a
large number of regular freighters and
tramps will be receiving and sending mes
sdSes through the air.
The installation of wireless on a sailing
vessel marks era in the mysterious
science of biography. n ship equipped
with wireless has reduced the dangers OF
the deep, and these dangers will continue
TO diminish as the number of ships SO
safeguarded increases. The time will
surely come when ship captain will no
more think OF putting to sea without a
wireless outfit than without his compass

The Memorial to Lincoln.

James T. McCleary. in an article in the
American Review of Reviews. argues in
behalf of a national highway between
Washington and Gettysburg. to be called
1.-The Lincoln road as the most enduring
and appropriate memorial to Abraham
Lincoln. In his argument on the perma-
nency of this form of memorial he cites
the Appian Way. which has preserved the
name of Claudius Appius through twenty
two centuries, while all the mighty build
ings along that ancient road fell to ruins
centuries ago. Incidentally, Mr.. McCleary
reviews some features of Washington well
to be kept in mind.
He says the Lincoln memorial should
not be a statue, because mere statue
would be inadequate as an expression of
the nations regard. He gintimates that
Washington is amply stocked with
statues, and that in the matter of eques-
trian statues Washington city already has
one-tenth of all such statues in the world.
He thinks the memorial should not take
the form of great university, because
the capital city is already furnished with
great institutions of learning and scien-
tific research. 1t ought not to take the
form of gallery of art. because there
is nothing about an art gallery to suggest
Lincoln" Mr.. McCleary says: 1--WE al
ready have in Washington the Corcoran
Gallery of Art, which is developing into
an admirable institution Of the kind, and,
moreover, Congress has made provision
for a national gallery of art in connection
with the National Museum"

says, should not be museum, because

tuition and the National Museum, each fill
