New York, July 12-General Daniel
e. Sickles waved the almost forgotten
"bloody shirt" at the first meeting of
the new Theodore Roosevelt National
Progressive Party in the tower Of the
Metropolitan building.
General Sickles declared, in unmis-
takSble language, that Governor
Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, was
not fit to sit in the presidential chair
at the White House because che was
born among rebel surroundings" and
because "his family had fought in the
Confederate Army"
He added. 1--WE don't want a repeti.
tion Of the secession movement"
The only inference to be drawn
from General Sickle's address was
that with Governor Wilson as presi
dent a state would be privileged tc
withdraw from the Union.
Before making his reference to Gov
ernor Wilson, General Sickles declar
ed that he considered Theodore Roose
welt far and beyond any of his rivals
the most desirable man in the countr!
for president.
"He is the right man in the righ
place." said he. "He is an homes
man, frank and outspoken, and he ha
no opinion to control, and we are &c
ing to make fighting, successful
campaign for him."

MERCHANTS e. MANUFACTURERS
Meet to Discuss Site of Torpedo
Factory,

The Merchants and Manufacturers
Association held well attended and
important meeting last night, in Fire
mems Hall. The meeting was called
by President George Mather, In view
OF the rumOrs afloat Oh the streets in
relation to the rebuilding or George
B. Jackson's torpedo factory.
Mr.. Jackson was present and made
frank statement of the character
of his business. Insurance men also
were present and declared that the
risk had not been an extra hazardous
one, as evidenced by the fact that
the underwriters, after most careful
examination had given him insurance
Oh two per cent. basis and had not
raised the rates on adjacent proper
ties.
The best evidence of the fact, how
ever, was recognized 80 having been
the experimental one To the recent
fire there was in the building the
largest amount of manufactured tor
pedoes and of decorating compound
that there has been since the business
was established. These passed
though the building was wrecked. The
torpedoes are encased in lead foil,
and on these the outer covering was
burnt, leaving the detonating COM
pound exposed to the flames and
heat, yet no explosion resulted. AfteG
fullest discussion a resolution was
passed unanimously giving it as the
sense Of the meeting, that, provided
Mr. Jackson complies with existing
building ordinances and other muni-
cipal laws in the premises, no OBJ
lection should be made to his re-
building On the present site.

Co-operation With Our Schools.

American people probably more
than any other recognize the neces-
sity and value OF cooperation; and
yet the home and the school, two
great institutions interested in the
turning out of very important pro-
duct are seldom seen in cooperation
It would seem to an outside observer
that there Is a curious inconsistency
here. and there is. There is some
thing more than an inconsistency;
there il a positive wrong, and the m
ished product il the loser.
Theodore Roosevelt says, The pub
lie schools are the factories of Ameri-
can citizenship" Is the product
Of these factories satisfactory to you?
III the work done in these factories
the very best that can be done? If
not it may be that the persons most
vitality interested in the work, DO not
understand the material upon which
they are working. That is, At may be
the parent and the teacher do not
know enough OF the child.
How may they know more? Clear

home reacts upon the school life, the
teachings of the school are carried TO
the home. IT. III not clear then that
to secure the very best results from
the labors OF the home and or the
school, an intimate knowledge OF the
child in both places is necessary?
Teachers everywhere welcome the
desire On the part off parents to ob-
tain this knowledge. They welcome
a broad, sympathetic, interest in their
efforts. and will work with the par
ents to make the school what Il
should be-a power for good in the
community-a real center OF COM
munity life.
In what way may this cooperative
spirit express itself? Simply a. all
other allied interests-by organtza-
ton. No power can withstand the Or

ers. Let me suggest the organiza-
