The Chicago Evening Post pays a
glowing deserved tribute 10 the north
woods Of wisconsin and Michigan and
expresses doubt that the people Of the
Mississippi valley realize their pictur-
esque and varied attractiveness as
places OF summer recreation. The
Post refers 10 the curious tradition
lingering along wealthy inhabitants Of
St Louis, Kansas city and other west
ern places that the only true primeval

Navy for Canada.

When the question OF establishing a
Canadian navy was first seriously
preached, there seemed TO be so great a
difference Of opinion that. it was pro-
posed to submit the question to a vote
of the Canadian people. but after due
consideration the Canadian Parliament
voted against this, and proposes to
go ahead and build a navy on it's own
motion. There is. of course, some op-
position 10 the government party on this
question, but it is not enough to inter
fere with the work
For many years Great Britain dlscour-
aged the idea of having Canada build a
navy, probably bearing in mind her ex-
perience with her other North American
colonies and fearing that Canada, feel
ing her strength, might set up in bust
ness for herself. But the years have
brought a change of mind. and the 10y
atty for the mother country so prac-
ucally expressed by Canada in the Boer
war has made il clear that Canada is
pretty well satisfied with her position as
an integral part of the British empire.
If she is not satisfied and wants to set
up-at any future time-an independent
government of her own. she may go in
peace.
So, in this new departure Of Canada on
a naval building programme, England is
| encouraging her. She feels that, with
Canada loyal, whatever navy she builds
will be just so much addition to the
strength of the fighting force of Great
Britain and will help to maintain the
balance of power, which has become a
serious burden on the finances of Great
Britain.
TO begin with. Canada viii start with
ten vessels. -Four of these are to be OF
the cruiser class. and six of them win be
torpedo-boat destroyers. All of them
are to be modern. built after the best
British designs. though they are to be
constructed in Canada and manned by
citizens of Canada.
Canada has gone about her preparations
in sensible way. She has already es-
tablished a naval training school in

Minister Cruz's Death.

Senior Don Anibal Cruz. whose career
has been suddenly. almost tragically. cut
short by death, was a capable and ac-

was creditable and honorable alike TO
him and his government. Persona grata

ments and attractive traits Of character
and ready grasp of affairs. he won and
held the esteem of the corps of the
Latin Americans. and Identified himself
closely and potentially with the com
bined interests Of the countries Of this
hemisphere. He was a progressive, en-
lightened man. peculiarly equipped for
duty here by reason of distinguished and
successful legislative and governmental
service at home. and his passing will be
sincerely mourned in official, diplomatic,
and social circles.

THE GRIDIR0N CLUB.
Its Dinners Unique and Democratic
in Highest Degree.

Prom the Memphis NewsSeimitar
The Gridiron Club dinner is alone OF its
kind in the world. Banquets and dinings
are often spoken Of as occasions for a
feast of reason and flow of soul, in a
spirit of complimentary exaggeration. but
there is in fact feast of reason and a
flow of soul Al the Gridiron dinner.
The club has no other business than
TO give two or three dinners during the
shorter OF longer Congressional sessions,
so it can be seen how much ought 10 be
crowded into these two or three occa-
sions. and a guest will see how much is
crowded.
Like everything else in life. the clubs
origin and existence have a meaning and
purpose. whether or not all Of its men,
bership understand the fun province OF
its gatherings. There is no club OF SIM
liar organization in the world, where at
the same time are gathered so much tai
ent and power and so much democracy.
Men OF the greatest power and influence
will gladly come from the Pacific or At
lantic coasts to attend this function at
the seat OF government of the richest and
most powerful country in the world.
The President OF the United States is
an invited guest and made eX offlciO host

The clubs membership Is composed Of
newspaper correspondents. The dinner is
ample in quality. but il furnishes empha-
sis and evidence Of the truth that eating
is for living, and not living for eating.
on the occasion there is absolute de-
mocracy. and hardly a distinction even in

The club membership prepares an even

at the titleholders of place and power,

convey not to take things too seriously.

The Game of aunt Sally. y

II was Josiah Aliens wife. we believe.
who introduced to us that pleasing game
entitled Aunt Sally" which consisted
OF setting up the scarecrow effigy of an
old woman. with a clay pipe in her
mouth. as a target for the men and boys
at the county fair. who paid cents
apiece for the privilege of throwing a
ball and trying to smash the pipe to
smithereens. The spectacle aroused the
chivalrous nature OF Josiah. and he rushed
to the rescue of aunt Sally
The government clerk is the Aunt
Sally of the present equation. only 1t
is a free-for-an competition. costing not
one cent, unless the humiliation and
demolition of the target is to be consid-
cred. 1t looks like first-class chance
for some brave Josiah Allen 10 come to
the front. when the much-needed change
in administration is effected, and rescue
Aunt Sally from her ignominious pre-
dicament
There is no logical reason why the
clerks should be buffeted and picked
upon With so many apparent evils
crying TO be remedied, it looks like small
business to be forever taking a shot at
the clerks.
Congress manifestly entertains no in
tention OF doing anything toward rails
ing the salaries of the clerks this ses-
sion. Meanwhile the missiles continue
to fly at the head of Aunt Sally" The
hours of work are threatened with in
crease, their leave of absence is cur
tailed. and rules confront them wherever
they may turn.
On our part. we think Uncle Sam is
faithfully and capably served in the
main. The drones and shirks in the de-
partments are in a small minority. The
great army of clerks do not need TO be
driven or threatened. They are all right.
It is time for Uncle Sam TO essay the
role of Josiah-high time.

Good Roads.

The Importance of securing Federal
aid toward the building of interstate
highways was, perhaps, the most sig
nihcant agreement. of the American Good
Roads Congress held at Indianapolis re-
Gently. 1t was made plain at that meet
ing that in hardly anything else are we
so wasteful and extravagant as in the
matter OF bad roads. 1t is not too much
10 say that millions are added yearly TO
the cost of the food stuffs that come
from the farm simply because of the
difficulty of hauling them 10 market
over bad roads. and though, of course,
primarily, the duty of caring for and
constructing country highways should
devolve on the farmers adjacent TO
whose lands the roads run, yet it is
recognized that something must be done
TO educate people to the Importance and
economy of good road building, and il
is the belief of experts that some Fed
oral interest in the matter would furnish
the needed stimulus.
The country seems TO have been edu-
