THE FLlNN RELIEF EXPEDITION

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: ] have been reader OF The New
York Tribune for fifty years. OF course I
must read Pennsylvania papers, but have
always felt that II ! wanted 10 get the
truth and read editorials OF sense and
weight | must read The Tribune. | must
say that The NewYork Tribune does not
please me as It once did The issue OF this
date contains the news from Chicago, the
Republican National Committee, and a
ridiculous cartoon on the first page, and II
Il were not for the title | would not believe
that the paper is The Now-York Tribune.
Is II possible that the national committee
is so frightened because William Finn has
gone to Chicago. so frightened that Mr..
New has to call out the police? Is Il not
absurd? II your esteemed fellow citizen
William Barnes, jr, can telegraph to the
ex-Presidents delegates TO forsake him and
vote for the Republican bosses and go to
Chicago to manipulate the committee and
delegates, why cannot Mr. Finn go, too,
without creating such n disturbance? We
need not expect anything better In some
New York papers. but we do expect some
thing better in The NewYork Tribune.

"DFFFNDING" THE PARK.

Opponents of the erection Of the LenoX
Library building in Central Park, VINO
will hold a mass meeting or protest
to-day. are likely to make the cause OF
protecting parks from improper ell
croachments ridiculous. They are so
obsessed with the notion that no bulId-
ings should he placed in the parks that
they are trying to keep out of them the
buildings which serve the welfare or the
parks themselves.
It is to the advantage Of the parks
that they should contain their own ad-
ministration buildings as they always
have done in this city, so that the PARK
administrators may he In touch with
the working force and have the Work
done under their eyes. The absurdity
Of the opposition to an administration
building I'm Central Park Is shown ID
the suggestion that the Park Depart
ment of Manhattan should be housed FIVE
miles away, in the new Municipal Build

4 SoN.poPUDAR ANNIVERSARY.

To-day's anniversary is Of far more
historic Importance than popular inter-
est. 1t might indeed be Justly described
as conspicuously unpopular. The CEN
tennial anniversaries Of the Declaration
Of Independence, OF the first Inaugural
ton OF Washington as President, of the
Louisiana Purchase and Of other events
In our early history commanded wide
spread attention and were deliberately
commemorated. But this Tooth anniver-
sary Of the beginning of our second war
with the Mother Country is passing with
little notice. 1t has not been the subject
of many publications nor the theme Of
commencement essays and orations.
Even If we were not in the thick Of a
particularly animated political campaign,
II is to be doubted if there would be any
considerable gatherings, utterances or
other public demonstrations to mark the
centennial recurrence Of a date which
really was Of first rate moment in our
history.
For this the reasons are not difficult
to discern. The War Of 1912 was not
popular war. Let It be granted that 1t
was Just and neceSsitous and that its
results were beneficial The fact re-
mains that a large part of the country
was strongly opposed to 1t, manifesting
its opposition to degree which was
held 10y many to SAVIOR Of disloyalty.
Moreover those who favored the war as
n vindicatiOn Of our national sovereignty
and rights deplored the necessity of do
ing so and engaged in the conflict with
more Of grim. If not sad. resolution than
OF enthusiasm. Nor was the conduct Of
the war such as altogether to infame
our national pride On the ocean and
the lakes II was. indeed. distinguished
by some OF the most brilliant trumphs
Of American arms or Of the arms Of
any maritime power since Salamis--as
was most fitting, seeing that II was a
war waged expressly for the protection
of our seamen. But on land, with the
exception of one minor conflict and one
important battle fought after peace had
been made. it was marked by almost ,n-
relieved disaster aud humiliation. cul-
minating In the abandonment of the ma
tional capital TO the Invading forces.
The individual achievements Of Law
renee and Perry. Hull, Jackson and
Brown will be honored so long as men
prize heroism; but the war as q whole
has not inspired and will not inspire a
high degree OF enthusiasm.
The best service Of this anniversary
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-06-18

is. perhaps, as a contrasting prelude to
the anniversary which is to be celebrated
two and a half years hence, and which
throughout two great nations will be as
popnlar as this is lacking in popularity
The best thing I'm the War Of 1872 was
tbe ending Of it in treaty which
marked the beginning Of peace which
has not more than once or twice been i'm
perilled. which has been maintained fol
nearly a hundred years with constantly
increasing firmness and which may now
be considered perpetual, or at least as
amply assured Of perpetuity as any hu
man condition or circumstance can he.

4 COTRAGEOES VETO.

Mr.. Taft's veto of the army approprla-
ton bill is an act Of high courage
President seldom feels it to be within
his province to disapprove a supply DILL
except on the ground that the sum voted
is excessive and extravagant. President
Arthur once vetoed a river and haroor
appropriation bill for that reason, ana
Mr.. Taft himself gave notice last year
that he would never sign another river
and harbor appropriation bill as loosely
prepared as was that for 191O-l1.
The fault with the army bill this year
is not that 1t carries an excessive appro-
priation. The amount of money allowed
to the army has been reduced, not IN
creased But accompanying that reduc-
ton much objectionable general legisla-
ton has been included, tearing up the
present organization Of the army ana
gravely impairing its efficiency More
over. some Of the provisions are aimed
at individual army officers and suggest
purpose on the part OF certain mem
hers of the Military committees OF the
House and Senate to satisfy private
grudges Two Of the worst of those
provisions were never submitted regu-
| larry TO the House or Senate. They were
evolved in the conference committee and
inserted as new matter In the CONFER
ence report, so that neither branch OF
Congress ever had chance to vote on
them separately and on their own merits
| On their face those obnoxious riders
| look like a petty scheme Of personal re-
venge. through which the present cher
of the General staff Is to be Inundated
| for having had the temerity to challenge
bureaucratic methods In the War De
partment and to recommend the aban-
donment of superfuous and badly placed
army posts
The President has not flinched from
the duty Of returning to Congress an
| appropriation bill thus loaded down with
hasty and injurious general legislation,
even though such action may leave the
army with no money on which to operate
after July l. The responsibility for stop.
ming the pay Of officers and men will not
| fall on him but on Congress, which has
departed from long settled precedents
In using the appropriation bill as a
means for recognizing the army. The
same issue was raised in the course of
the Hayes administration, when Demo
cratic Congress tried to starve the army
I'm order to force through rider deal
| Ing with the exercise Of the federal gov
ernments authority to supervise cleo
tons. President Hayes held firm and
at the end Of an extra session Congress
yielded. The country sustained his veto,
and it will sustain that Of Mr., Taft, who
has both precedent and common sense on
his side
Congress cannot plead even a techni-
cal justification in the case OF the two
Objectionable items which originated in
the conference committee since their at
tachment to the bill in the course Of de-
bate would have been forbidden under
the rules both Of the House and Of the
Senate If Congress wants 10 make a
fight along such lines the President can

To the Editor OF The Tribune.

POLITICAL INNOCENCE.

One engaging quality of Mayor Gaynor
is his political innocence. When he
said: $50 this is Tammany Hail." peo-
pie thought it was affeCtation, as they
did also when in the same campaign he
referred to the boss Of Tammany Hall
as the reputed leader Of the Democratic
organization in one Of the counties Of
the city. Even when he besOught the
public to SAY a kind word to Murphy
the general belief was that il was sly
humor But no, 1t was innocence.
And he preserves It, virginia. and fresh.
even to this day Democratic Associa-
"tion Of New York for Gaynor for Presi-
"dent"-why, he never heard Of 1t until
yesterday. He is the one man in New
York who had to be told by the report
ers yesterday OF the Gaynor boom for
the Democratic nomination. For the
moment he had forgotten that this was a
Presidential year
If he IS nominated at Baltimore, what
a task the notification committee will
have TO make him understand what has
happened. beginning at the beginning
and leading him to the knowledge that
this year the people choose President
and that the Democratic party has held
convention in Baltimore and picked
him out as its candidate. Will they be
able to divert his mind from the heaps
Of letters he has to read-and write
long enough TO pour into 1t all this IN
formation? Will they be able TO pry
him loose from his present job? Plough
handles are not so engrossing nor so
