THE MAINE.

We picked up paper the other
day illustrating the embarkation of
the American troops from Cuba and
in the foreground was an outline of
the Inflated Maine. We saw the
other day two postcards which are
sold in the stores of Havana, are
bought by tourists and mailed to the
four quarters of the globe.
No more singing comment was
ever written to characterize sore
spot than is contained in two lines,
written by an American army officer
in Cuba, in explanation of those two
picture postal cards.
One showing the Inflated Maine
entering Havana harbor, bears the
inscription: "This Ship Once Belong
ed to the United States"
The other illustrating a mass of
gnarled wreckage, carries another
message: "This Wreck is the Prop
erty of the Republic of Cuba"
The late Congress which appropri-
ated millions on millions for battle
ships and seacoast defenses, found
no time to set aside a modest sum
of money for the recovery and hon
orable interment Of the bodies Of the
crew of the Maine still imprisoned
in the wreck in Havana harbor.
The memories of the Spanish war
are still fresh IN our minds. All re-
call the thrill of honor that follow
ed the story Of the wreck of the
Maine.
We ourselves were ON the Pacific
Coast during the Spanish war. We
recall the fierce exaltation of our
people when they assembled by the
hundreds of thousands to see the first
California Volunteers leave on their
sea voyage of thousands of miles to
the,distant Philippine. The tears came
TO our eyes as we saw the troops of
Kentucky, and of Tennessee march
through the streets of San Francisco
and remembered that. they were
Americans all going forth to die, if
necessary, for the dear old flag. And
the common slogan Of all was, ere
member the Maine"
We arose during that memorable
time and with countless thousands
through the length and breadth Of
this goodly land stood with uncovered
head when america" was played by
the band.
But no Star Spangled Banner COW
ers the pail of the Names dead; nc
plot in Arlington Cemetery is set
aside for the men who yielded up
their lives under the flag. Unhonored
and 'unsung, they rest in the wreck
age in Havana harbor, food for the
fishes and forgotten by a grateful
country
When Cervera came TO die the 9TH
er day, among his last thoughts we're
gratitude and appreciation of the
kindness and courtesy Of our people

GOOD BUSINESS SENSE.

The action taken by the Fiscal
Court this morning in regard to the
Treasuryship of the county. and the
building Of fire proof vaults for the
court house, cannot be too highly
commended, and in regard to the lat
ter much credit is TO be given to the
Commercial Club.
In January, 1906, the President of
the Commercial Club, in his annual
message to thai body, recommended
that they take this question up with
the Fiscal Court and urge them to
build fire proof vaults for the court
house, and pointed. outs the dangers
which menaced our records. The
committee appointed by the CONNER
cial Club has discussed this matter
with the members of the Fiscal Court
at each term since, and in January of
this year, President Bowen again
called the attention of the club to
this matter and requested the com
mittee to appear before the Fiscal
Court and urge that the vaults be
built.
The Fiscal Court has made an in
vestigation of the condition of the
present vaults in the court house and
has come to the conclusion that it is
time more spacious fire proof vaults
with better ventilation and light be
built and by proper order this morn
ing, appointed the County Judge to
secure plans and specifications for
the building of such and report to
the court at a meeting to be called
in April or May.
While this action is Of much i'm
iportance to the county, yet the man
uer in which they disposed oe the
treasuryship stamps our Fiscal
Court as being composed of business
financiers, the superior Of which is
possessed by no other county in the
State For years, the Office of
treasurer of the county has been Civ
en- to first one bank, then another, in
rotation, and for this appointment
the banks thus appointed have paid
to the county $3.50 per annum and
few years ago the amount was $25.
But at this term the Fiscal Court
determined to let this Office to the
highest and best bidder and this
morning the bids from all four banks
were opened. Tie Peoples Bank bid
ST. SOB, the Citizens National Bank.
| 81 ,531, the Clark County National
Bank, 1890 and the Winchester
Bank, $2,O35 per annum for term
of two years.
This shows what the treasuryship
of Clark county is worth to the banks
and to secure this money for the tax
payers of the county is a piece of
business sagaeity~which should com
mend itself to every other county in
the State and not only to the coun-
ties, but the example set by this Els
cal Court should be followed by the
city fathers. Of Winchester and the
Board of Council should see that the
treasuryship of the city is sold in the
same manner to the highest and best
bidder. The county has picked up
$2,035 per annum for two years by
its business acumen and the city
should dispose of its treasuryship
likewise. If the city treasuryship is
of value to the bank holding it, it
should pay for same and the money
thus derived from its sale would be
for the good of all of the tax payers
alike.
We again commend the action of
our Fiscal Court and recommend it to
the other counties and City Councils
throughout the State for emulation.

LEWIS ISSUES PROCLAMATION. Miners to Celebrate Inauguration 0
 Eight Hour Work Day.

Indianapolis. March 25-President T. L. Lewis. of the United Mine Workers of America, has issued a proclamation asking miners to celebrate on April the Inauguration of the eight hour work day.
 Tn his proclamation, President Lewis declares that mo dispute Is permanent ly settled until 1t Is settled right"
 Tn addressing the members of his organization, President Lewis says:
 "You are aware that April l Is the anniversary of the establishment of tho eight hour day in the mining indus try of this country. It is true that the eight hour day has not been estab- lished in all the mining States and this Is due to the failure of the mine workers to become thoroughly organ ized. April 1 should be celebrated where the eight hour work day exists as a reminder of the peaceful victory secured by organized effort It ought to be celebrated where it has not been established as a reminder that we will not be satisfied until the eight hour day has been recognized as the univer- sal work day. AS members of the United Mine Workers you are advised to make April holiday and to re- frain from working on that particular day"

A RARE SIGHT.
If |. n Merchant Vessel Sailing Under
 American ColOrs.

Amef1cAn SVAS'
 Chicago, March 25-"One or the rsrest sights to be seen on the oceans of the world today is a merchant ves- sel sailing under American colors' says Professor John c. Freeman or the University of Wisconsin. in com munication to the Chicago Assoclation of Commerce.
 "0nly once in the last eighteen years" he declared. has there entered the port of Copenhagen, the largest on inc Baltic, a vessel flying the Ameri- can flag. That was during the presi- dency of Grover Cleveland.
 why is 1t that our merchant marine. which. before the civil war. was the greatest pride of our country has De- come so insignificant? One reason Is that during the war the union com nanies found it wise to put their liners under European management. since then the ship building states have held congress by the nose with law which allows no vessel to carry our colors unless 1t Is built In American ship wards. There are hundreds of vessels owned by and manned by Americans and carrying American cargoes com nelled to sail under foreign colors.
 If we can try the ship subsidy and get away from the-old restricting laws. we will find that the merchant marine of this country Is second to none in the world"
