Should Be in Every Home

The local newspaper should be found
in every home. No child, says the
Centerville Observer, will grow up ignor-
ant who can be taught to appreciate the
home paper. 1t is the stepping stone to
intelligence in all those matters not to be
learned in books. Let your children
have the home paper and read o fpersons
whom they meet, and places with which
they are familiar, and soon an interest is
awakened which increases with every
periodical arrival of the local paper.
Thus a habit OF reading is formed, and
and those children will read the papers
call their lives and become intelligent
men and women and a credit to their an
Q stors, strong in their knowledge of the
world as it is to-day.

DAYS OF

"Days of absence sad and weary
Clothed in sorrows dark array.
Days OF absence, we are weary
He we loved is far away.
when the heavy sigh is banished.
When this bosom cease to mourn,
Hours of bliss too quickly vanished.
When will aught like he appear?
Not till his loved voice can greet us
Which so oft has charged our ear.
Not till those sweet eyes can greet us
Telling that we still are dear.
"Days of absence then will vanish,
Joys will all our pangS repay,
Soon our bOSOm's idol Danish
| Gloom but felt when he's away.
"All our love is turned to sadness
Absence pay the tender VOW
Hopes that filled the heart with sadness,
| Memory turns to anguish now.
Love may yet return to greet us
Hope may take the place of pain.
He will then with kisses meet us
Breathing love and peace again.

OBITUARY
HARRY j. MORRIS,

the oldest Sol OF Hamilton Morris, died
Sunday morning, April Is, 1909, after
ten days illness with pleuro-pneumonia.
The funeral service was held Wednes-
day morning at the residence of his par
ents, interment in Riverview Cemetery.
He was aged 10 years.
Harry was a young man we'll liked by
his associates and it is sad for the
family to loose the Oldest, just CON-
ing into manhood. Mr.. and Mrs
Morris have the deep sympathy of their
friends and his young friends who showed
respect by attend the funeral in a body.

no purpose Of acquiring political power

The imputation OF Mr.. Zelaya that the
American government is attempting to
establish the inviolability of the persons
Of Americans participating in foreign
revolutions Is foolishly untrue. This
country takes and has always taken the
view that its citizens who participate IN
the domestic dlssensions Of foreign lands
must accept the legitimate consequences
Of their conduct. But il rightly requires
assurance that only legitimate conse-
quences befall them. and that is an as-
surance which IL has conspicuously not
been able yet 10 secure I'm the case Of the
two Americans who were recently put "a
death by Mr.. Zelaya or his agents. The
attempted yindication Of their execution
which r. now put forward by Mr.. Zelaya
is simply that the laws Of Nicaragua pro-
vide for the putting to death Of all Off
GERS OF insuryent troops. That is an ad-
mission of harbarisDl which we had
scarcely expected even from Mr. Zelaya
and which must 90 far toward confirm

mistakes which any enc not on the iii

In naming William J. Taylor. who had

eanizations. as Superintendent of Sew

himself into trouble. The followers OF
Mr.. Hearst assert that Mr.. Taylor has
not of late been more than lUkewar:n

election he had voted for Mr.. MeCooey.

NAMES FOR SEA FIGHTERS.
, the Editor of The Tribune.

10 thS Edltor or The Tribune
Sir: In Your editorial column this
morning ! noticed short article on the
approaching difficulty OF naming the ships
or the navy .sand also a suggestion that I'm
view Of the names of the states giving out
for our battleships, IL might be well 10
name the ship for some of the old historic
ships of Our navy, long since out of COM
mission.
A possible objection 10 this scheme Was
raised 10 the effect that II might offend
some of our Southern friends or our for.
eign neighbors II our future lighting ships
we're to bear the names of vessels which
IN the past had been associated with their
defeats. To this objection j would like to
take exception as | think II is all wrong
In the first place, II would seem that the
writer of the article I'm question has as
sufned that a defeat was a disgrace that
ranked IN the bosom OF the defeated: an
episode TO be hushed up, forgotten. This
Is not the attitude that we should assume
or that. 1 think. the most of US do as
sumo. What Southerner thinks with feel
inss of other than pride of the magnificent
defeat of Pickett's charge at Gettysburg
or what Northern feels humiliation at the
thought nf the sinking of the Cumberland
and the Congress by the Confederate Mer-
rimac?
Let us by all means have a new Mer-
riinac I'm our navy, and a new Cumberland
and "A new Congress. too. and In the future
Il will not be each other that their guns
arc trained ON. Thank heaven. We remem-
ber. not the 'jealousies and faction ana sec
tion politics of the days OF 81. but the
heroism and worth OF those who In equal
righteousness of conviction wore either the
blue or the gray
As regards the feelings Of our foreign
frierds IN these days of our friendship .e
same reasons would apply. and even 10
they did not u has been long the custom
In both the nsv,es OF Great Britain and
France To perpetuate in this manner the
names of their famous hghting ships.

IN RESPONSE TO "eRITISHER.y

To the Editor of Tne Tribune.
Sir: The letter of "Britisher'' in The
Tribune Of December .. though in SEINE
respects containing accurate statements.
contains an imputation which leaves him
open to the charge Of allowing his imagina-
tion to run riot.
To the unsophisticated reader OF the
communication il would appear that John
Redmond. NJ. T.. and T. +. O'Connor.
NJ. r., were pair of political adventurers
who traded en- the eredulity Of the people
for pecuniary benefit and to gain post
humous fame. While I concede 10 the i'm
mortal Gladstone and those EngIishmen
who supported him in his Irish policy
full measure OF praise. would regard my
self as very "obfuscated'' individual IL
did not realize that altered conditions
have been brought about by the patriotic
efforts. brilliant oratory and wise states
nlanshtp Of. among others. the very men
whom "Britisher'' would endeayor 10 ira
duce by imputins to them mereenary rather
than patriotic motives.
AS a matter of fact. neither OF the men
referred to derives any peeuniary benefit
from politics. paradozieal as this may seem
TO those who can only view patriotism as
a means of acquiring wealth and for whom
IL has no sentimental value.
i. 2. OCOnnor, as is we'll known is a
man of great literary ability, who. as a
journalist. has acquired fame. while John
4. Redmond is not only a counsellor-st-
law but is the owner OF a comfortable
fortune, which he inherited from his
father. Member OF Parliament for Wex-
ford over thirty years ago.
