greatest navigator rests in the splen- did mausOleums built to do him honor in their cathedrals. Way back in 1796 the casket supposed to contain the bones of Columbus was carried with all due funeral obsequy and pomp to Cuba, but the Santo DOmingans have always stoutly maintained that the casket contained not the remains of the explorer but the body of Diego, his son. Many persons will remember that during the Spanish war General Weyler of infamous memory declared his intention of tearing the bones from their splendi dcoffin and hurling them into the sea-but he never did and to- day the sacred relics rest in the cathe- dral in Seville. The United States will no doubt be the court of last re- sort for which ever city is finally se- iected as possessing theb ones of Christopher Columbus, and will end the old old controversy for good and all. But truth to tell both father and son suffered much. It is interesting to recall that Diego, the only son of Christopher, was born at Lisbon about teh year 1746, and that in 1523, when he was an admiral of the Indes and governor of Hispaniola he got into trouble with Valesquez and sailed away to Spain leaving the government of Hispaniola in charge of his wife he tried to settled the controversy with his enemy. But for years poor Diego, like his father before him, tried in vain to obtain redress and he finally died at Montalvan which is near To- ledo.

MORE THAN A JEFFERsoNIAN TRIBUTE.
JAMES SMITH. JR.
MARCH 1. 1882.

The presence of Speaker Champ Clark at the
offersonian dinner in the Kruger Auditorium to-
tight should be the occasion to do high honor to two
L. Americas statesmen, the immortal Thomas Jener-
on and Champ Clark, who represents in our gener-
kion the finest type of patriotic Americansm and the
est example of American craftsmanship.
Il We honor the name and memory of the great
Anerson every year. We should pay especial honors
b,him now for by Democratic administration and In
Democratic House of Representatives the teachings
the father of Democracy have been condemned, his
rtnciples violated ana entered that, if
Ihrsued will inevitably lead to the destruction of
he republic which he helped to found.
Honor for jefferson reflects honor upon the man
rho in the spirit of Jefferson stood in the House
~ Representatives to combat the foreign interests
md un-American sentiment which Jefferson battled
nth all through his illustrious career.
Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence,
4 paper that is imperishable 1t was an indictment
British wrongs to the American people and
enance to a British monarch He wrote that Decla-
alton knowing that he did so literally with halter
bout his neck.
1 The courage of the fathers of the republic in
citing themselves up against the might of England
las been the inspiration of the nation ever since
i was the courage of the War of 1912, OF the Civil
Ear and of Grover Cleveland In his in regard
. the venezuelan boundary The courage of our
prefathers was absent from the highest councils of
me Democratic party when the policy of surrender
vas adopted q democratic and national policy, and
she contemplated surrender is to be to the nation
Ehich jefferson spent most OF his public life in conf
Eating.
1t is time for the Democratic party to reaffrm
lhe principles OF Jefferson. If it doesn't 1t is de-
1adent party unworthy to speak of Jefferson Its
|ather for If he living today he would disown
ata mo a national
interests and the national honor to foreign nation
or reasons of fear which they do not disclose.

SUPPRESSION OF THE GUNNER.

The threatening letters sent to the Governor of
New York by criminals In sympathy with the four
executed gunner should nerve the public to the task
of cleaning out this vicious element and impel the
criminal authorities and the courts to begin stern
and unreenting campaign against outlaws of this
class.
In the early days of San Francisco, when crime
became defiant and rampant and gunner tried to
rule the town, there sudden uprising few
summary hangings and San Francisco was redeemed.
Society INDICATED law and order when the ministers
of the law were inept In New York it is only neces-
sary to free the law of It's shackes and aroused
public sentiment do that.
