A BOLD SAILOR MAN

Captain Lucien Young OF the navy is big, bluff
Kentuckian, not always especially discreet in his
utterances. He has said things for instance, about
Roosevelt that were not at all reshed in exalted
circles and when the recent order came detachins
him from command at Mare island it surmisec
that this was meant as a form of discipline for al
unruIy tongue. Next it was explained that Captain
Young had been promoted to have charge OF the
courts martial, but the explanation appeared tc
be little lame. But Captain Young manages to
keep things moving and heard from the

Freedom OF speech IS not popular in either the
army or the navy. Long ago Lieutenant Derby

the army for pokng fun at the secretary of war,
who, think, at that time was Jefferson Davis.
As | remember it Derby, who then stationed
in San Diego, in report to the secretary recon-
mended that every trooper be supplied with
strong iron hook in the back of his belt so that
he might be firmly affixed to the saddle. The
secretary deeply offended, but it sug-
gested him that if he took action to discipline
Derby the facts would come out and the
department would be laughed off the face of the

THE CASE OF THE OK

big, fat and juicy. The oxen stand

to admit that two wrongs do not
make one right, but when it is
case OF thousand wrongs, that
is different. A million wrongs
many constitute in politics the
most SACRED form OF right. It is
only the small people that go to

public property are honored as the
creators of vested rights and are
held up to admiration as such.

Besides, Captain Young has a distinguished

PURSUIT OF THE OCTOPUS
An outspoken habit does not make an army or
navy man popular with the powers. Not long ago
when Captain Fries OF the engineer corps was in
charge of the harbor work at San Pedro he joined
with enthusiasm in the pursuit of the octopus
which accused OF fastening its greedy beak
and claws the white meat of the water front.
Captain Fries appeared on the platform at public
meetings denouncng the greed of the Southern
Pacific monster. He made himself so popular that
they named a street after him, but very shortly
the order came transferring him to another post
where there octopus to pursue. 1t
eaborately explained that the order was made in
due course OF routine, but people had their doubts.
i he usual practice OF the war department rarely
moves engineer officers to new posts. Colonel
Mendell was in charge OF San Francisco and Oak
