my excuse for the length Of this letter.
In the early months Of 1910 an ex-
tensive demand was made on Gov.
Folk to enter the contest for the DEM
ocratic nomination for United States
Senator from Missouri. Some Of his
supporters, and other Democrats who
had ct that time been classed as his
supporters. thought it would best serve
the party's interest to leave the Sena-
torial contests to former Governor
David r. Francis aid Ne. James A..
Reed. and that Mr.. Folk be given Mis-
souri's delegation to the national con-
vention. After several weeks of dis
cussion, sentiment eliminated in q ban
lquet at the Southern hotel, in ST. Louis.
which was attended by more than 500
Democrats representing almost every
county IN the state.
The object and purpose Of the BAN
quet had been thoroughly ADVERTISED, and
it was well known thatiit was held for
the purpose Of launching boom for
Governor Folk for President. All the
state officers. excepting Attorney Cen
eral Major, who happened TO be in
Washington, attended. Many tiistin-
guished Democrats addressed the ban

GIVE THE BATHING BEACH
ITS RENTALS.

1t has been abundantly demonstrated
that the bathing beach is one of the
most popular institutions in the Dis
trict of Columbia, and it would be ex-
ceedingly unfortunate if, for lack of
funds, it should have to be closed be-
fore the end of the season. 1t seems
like an elementary proposition that the
money received at the beach for the
rent of towels and bathing suits should
be used for the. support of the institu-
ton itself. This fund has now reached
comparatively large proportions-an ad-
ditional evidence of the popularity of
the beach. The money thus derived
could be used for keeping the beach
open for the remainder of the season
without any doubt, if Congress would
authorize this step.
Superintendent Hudson is making a
special effort to have this course pur-
sued, and it is believed that he will
have the hearty cooperation of the
Commissioners. At present there is
less than $1,000 available for use in
running the bathing beach, and of this
amount, it is stated, 5000 must be kept
in reserve to meet any charges for re-
pairs, in case of accident. The regular
salaries amount to 1925 a day, which
does not seem excessive when the num-
Der of people benefited is considered.
And yet at this rate it will not take
long to exhaust the remaining $500.
The 1000 now on hand as the pro-
ceeds of renting towels and bathing
suits should be turned over to Superin-
tendent Hudson, so as to insure the
continuance of this most delightful re-
sort for the remainder of the season.

WHY DO NOT LABORERS
RECEIVE HALF HOLIDAY

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:
The clerks, watchmen, and messen-
gers of the various Government depart
ments have been given a hearing
through the columns of your very val
liable paper. They have not at any
time been denied a chance to be heard.
knowing The Times to be fair and
anxious to help all of its readers, the
employees farthest down-the poor Ia
Department-desire a hearing.
While many of these employees have
large families to support out of the $40
and SIS a month salary allowed them,
they are willing to bow their necks to
the woke and go on, without making
any kick fcr higher salary, though II
Is very much needed. But what they
do want, Mr.. Editor, is to be treated
like human beings and American citi-
Gems.
II seems that the Interior Department
is endeavoring to outdo any of the rest
of the executive departments in gain
ing notoriety. Here the laborers have
been refused the half-holiday on Sat
urdays. The assistant superintendent,
T. s. Hill, Compels the laborers to re-
mort for duty every Saturday morning,
during the half-holidays, at 5 o'clock
and work till IL o'clock noon before
they are allowed to go off for the half

LINCOLN MEMORIAL
SITE SUGGESTED
To the Editor Of THE TINES:


II not too late, 1 would like to sug-
gest a site for the proposed Lincoln
memorial-at or near the south en-
trance to the Soldiers Home, at the
head Of First street northwest. Pres
ent attractions southeast are Mt.
Vernon, the arsenal, and the navy
yard. Southwest, Fort Myer, and Ar
lington; northwest, the Zoo and park,
with the circles and statues on the way
out; In the center, the Capitol, the
Union Station and the Columbus, Grant
and Garfield memorials, and the White
House with its surroundings.
In any pictured scene 1t Is only neces-
sary to depict the Capitol dome and
the top of the Washington Monument
for US to recognize the city of Washing
ton.
What Is the use of planting millions Of
dollars in some low, muddy place when
the idea, the sentiment, the patriotism.
the fair duty of the United States Is
to rear lofty memorial TO a lofty man
on a lofty site?
See the situation-the concentrating
broad avenues for driving or motoring;
the concentrating street car lines; the
quick ride from Union Station: the
great Soldiers Home Park just behind
It; the reservoir and improved McMil-
Ian Park at it's foot; the proposed
boulevard sweeping past 1t. There are
many other good reasons. ! do not
indicate the precise spot. but l do call
attention to the remarkable oppor-
will be seen of all men in the exact
situation seemingly reserved by nature
to honor one of natures noblemen.

provide the balance now lacking in
the plan Of the growing city. E. s. M.

ination be made among Uncle Sans
employees? One of the poor laborers
called Hilrs attention to the fact that
the President issued orders that all
employees should have the half-holiday
on Saturdays during July, August, and
September. D the ORDERS" said Hill,
you do as 1 say do or get outH'
This matter Of refusing the half Sat
urday to the laborers was brought to
the attention Of the chief clerk Of this
department, who says the laborers come
under Mr.. Hill, his assistant, and he
will not interfere with any Of his Ciill'sl
arrangements. Where, then, must the
laborers go to get justice? II they take
their case before the Secretary it will
only be a question Of a very short time
before Hill will hatch up some kind of
an excuse to have them fired. We earn
estly regret to say that there can pos
sibly be no department of this entire
GoVernment-not excepting the Panama
Canal-where Uncle Sans employees
farthest down are treated more unlike
American citizens than they are in the
Interior Department And Secretary
Fishers attention is earnestly called
to these facts.
Hill has issued recent order-a thing
that has never been done before-com-
pelling each laborer to report to the
boiler room and help fire those boilers,
taking 1t by turns, every Sunday. For
this they are not allowed one penny
or an hour off. This time must be put
in for nothing. This is not only unjust
to these laborers. but 1t is equally un-
just to the men who have stood the
civil service examination for these
places and are justly entitled to them.
These laborers are not clamoring for
higher salary, but they wish to be
treated like men and American citizens
And they are crying to their friends, as
did the children of Israel, Come over
into Macedonia and help U.s."
