The Names Wreck.

Every winter meetings are held at
about this time to commemorate the de-
Struction Of the Maine in Havana har-
Dor. February Ii, 1908. In virtually every
instance resolutions are adopted urging
upon Congress the desirability of provid-
ing for the removal of the wreck in or
der TO give proper sepulture to the 200
men who met their death in the explo-
sion. In fact, it is the universal patrio-
tic sentiment OF the country today that
the grewsome mass of twisted steel which
lies off the water front of Cubas capital
should cease to stand a monument
to tragedy and suspected treachery.
For several years Representative Sulzer
has been endeavoring to secure action
upon a resolution directing the removal
of the Maine, but for some inscrutable
reason he has been unsuccessful. Yester-
day in New York a Maine memorial
service. held under the auspices of the
United Spanish War Veterans, adopted
resolutions demanding the enactment of
such provision. This is the latest Of a
long series of similar requests, the volume
of which stands as a remarkable exhibit
of official inactivity in the face of public
sentiment. In the course of the meeting
one of the auditors interrupted Repre-
sentative Suzer in the course of his
speech with pointed inquiry. lie want
ed to know what has prevented the rails
ing of the Maine and the author of the
pending resolution in Congress answered
that he was at loss to understand the
reasons why this matter has been delayed
and postponed and pigeonhoed during
four successive congresses.
1t is inconceivable that the United
States government fears that the raising
internal explosion. The records of the
examination conducted in Havana harbor
bear testimony explicitly to the fact that
the plates of the ship were bent inward,
by an external blow. All the known
circumstances corroborate this view. 1t
is the established official theory that the
Maine was sunk by either accidental
or an Intentional explosion from outside.
The demand that the Maine be raised
is prompted by no morbid curiosity. There
is no thought in the public mind that
mystery remains to- be solved. a motive
of unqualified patriotism causes the out
cry heard annually from all parts of the
country for the decent interment of the
Maine victims Surely no considerations
of economy stand in the way. This coun-
try Is rich enough to care decently for
the bodies of its dead. and it owes 1t to
the government of Cuba 10 remove from
the harbor of Havana the wreck that is
not only an obstruction to navigation.
but an unwholesome memorial to a
tragedy which requires no such shocking
reminder.

Keep Red Cross Stamp Alive.
From the New York SUI

The Red Cross Christmas stamp has
proved a great success thus far. AS an
agent of charity il has transferred thou
sands of dollars from the pockets of the
benevolent to a charitable and philan-
thropic use in the prevention and cure
of tubercuous disease. This method of
collecting money for great charities. how
ever, is threatened with two dangers. In
terest in the Red Cross stamp is liable to
decrease. people become familiar with
the same thing, season after season. and
IL loses its novelty. This is one danger
The other grows out of the ill-advised
attempts to make of similar non
official stamps for advertising purposes.
Thus we have before us a large blue
stamp bearing the portrait and name of
William j. Bryan. which was used dur
ing the last campaign of the great COM
moner. and smaller gray stamp en-
ployed by corporation. which publishes

The two parties to the controversy have

fare proves impracticable. The 3-cent
fare has already received one trial under
