SHOULD RAISE THE MAINE
Particular Reasons Why Question Of
Cost Must Have No Consid-
Grafton.

The difficulty of raising the old
Maine, sunk in Is feet of mud in ad-
dition to the 80 feet OF water in Ha-
vana harbor, is being made much of
by army engineers. 1t may be so great
as to be practically insuperable. Ger
tainly it Is far beyond the sum pro-
vided in the congressional appropria-
ton, as we'll informed persons knew
and said when the appropriation was
made.
But when the argument is made as
in favor of abandoning the undertake
ing it is really a reason why the
question of cost must not stand
in the road of establishing the
truth 1t is that the raising might
result in unexpected disclosures which
would be better left at rest" In other
words it is argued by an American pa
per that it is best not to let the truth
be known lest it should be shown that
the view of the United States was
wrong.
This position is so discreditable that
it calls for distinct reputation Sup
posing the imputation to be true, the
United States cannot in honesty let a
half million dollars stand in the road
of doing justice to a defeated antag-
onist To propose such course is
counsel of mingled poltroonery and
dishonesty.
AS a matter of fact there is not the
slightest foundation for that dishon-
orable fear. At the inquiry into the
loss of the Maine the builders plan
showing the number and location of
every structural beam in the vessel
was before the board for reference.
The number of a beam found forced
upward and sticking at an angle
through the decks was reported by
the divers and identified on the plan
as a part of the keel. To doubt that
this proved an explosion beneath the
keel is to suppose that divers, engi-
neers and naval officers were Joined IN
conspiracy of perjury and falsehood.
When an American paper casts that
imputation it is time to insist on the
truth being made clear if it costs sew
eral times a million.

Attacks upon children by dogs and

Attacks upon children by dogs and
cats are chronicled quite frequently
nowadays, probably because of neglect
of the animals during the hot weather
Animals that are extremely thirsty
during the heated term are as apt to
become deranged as men who are sub
jected to extremes of heat and cold.
All owners of animals should exercise
more than usual care in looking after
their comfort while the weather is un,
comfortably hot.

Over-confidence OnIv Peril.

The only peril which now confronts
the Republicans is over confidence,
and the campaign managers may be
relied on to keep this feeling from
getting into dangerous shape. The
record which congress has made in
the session which close few days
hence will furnish a striking tribute
to the Republicans as a party which
carry out their pledges, in spirit as
we'll as in letter-St. Louis Globe.

knew that the note in question was
sent. 1t was regular routine matter
in the German foreign Office and fol
lowed the stereotyped form.
Nations are excessively polite to
one another in their interchange Of
communications. Every letter that
goes out from the state department to
a foreign government has this cere-
monial finish:
Accept, excellency, the renewed as
surance of my highest consideration"
The cermonail letters of all coun-
tries begin in about the same way.
For instance, all of England's COM
munications begin:
George ", by the Grace of God, OF
the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland, king, defender of the
faith, emperor of India, etc.
Nicholas, by the Grace of God, en-
peror autocrat of all the Russias, czar
of Casan, czar of Astracan, etc, lord
of Plescott and grand duke of Smo-
lenski, ETC."
Germanys letters are very much
like those of Russia, in that they be-
gin by announcing all the titles OF the
ruling potentate. William H., by
Gods grace, emperor of Germany and
king Of Prussia" etc, is the way the
present emperor addresses his cere-
monial letters. The emperor writes
with a quill pen, and If one may Judge
by his signature on file in the state
department, does not take much time
