John Kean, till very lately Senator
Of New Jersey, who died on Wednes-
day, November 4tb, 1914, near Eliz-
abeth, was a man who was well worth
study. He died in the house in which
he and his parents, grandparents and
great-grandparents were born. He was
a bachelor In his sixty-second year, a
student Of Yale, a lawyer, a politician,
six years a member 0. the House of
Representatives, and from 1899 to 1911
a Sena tor in Washington and member
of the leading committees of that body.
During all his career he never made
q speech. Whether be could or not WAS
never known, but his tact, culture and
knowledge In conversation and bis in
fiuence in affairs, society and com mittee
meetings was so marked thar the charm
OF the mar was realizedby both parties,
by whom bis honesty and skill in pol
itice were admitted. He never forfeited
confidence, never lost a friend, never
made an enemy, and his home was the
welcome resort of opponents as we'll as
of supporters. Withal, be was a stu
dent of art and literature, a man sin
cerely attached to religion and schools
and one who quietly influenced the
action Of corporations of the most rep
resentative power whether at home or
abroad.
The general i'm preston was that Mr..
Kean equalled any Senator In thinking
from his chair and 10 exchanging ideas
when sitting, but that he was incapable
Of making a speech OF his feet. None
will ever know whether he could make
a ppeech or not. All who knew him
were aware he neve did makeon It
was thought he could, but would not.
And his ~celibacy withstood arts and
temptations such as q we'll favored man
Of inherited wealth attracted, and
which his success aud popularity could
not but ineite. Men In books or plays
have been portrayed as II he was their
model or understudy, but his sinceri-
ty, simplicity and happiness were a per-
suasion of those who knew him as well
as the conviction of his sisters and
brothers and of all his kindred. When
Army and Navy and diplomatic life in
Washington are borne in mind, the
allurements he melted and escaped a
be perhaps appreciated.
We care less to compare his career
with that of others than just TO refer
to 1t or to him as q sort of picturesque
phenomenon In q series Of national
administrations In a very interesting
cycle of American life. Those who
knew him longer or better may perhaps
be able more clearly to explain him to
his countrymen, but TO the correspond
ents of his time no Senator or figure in
the society Of the Capital was a more
agreeable study. We have not only
learned with regret of his death, but of
the fact that for some months before
1t occurred he was q sufferer from III
health, and we are certain hat no Jer-
seyman or ex-Jerseyman will fail to
concede that he well deserved the pub
lie and personal esteem in which he
was regarded brooklyn Eagle.

LUCK IN A BLUNDER.
A Story Of Frederick the Great and 9
Frightened Ensign.

A Story Of Frederick the Great and 9
Frightened Ensign.
During the last evening Of my stay
at Friedrichsruhe Bismarck was at his
best He was In excellent spirits
After dinner we Lit pipes. and well fill
ed tankards of beer were handy. The
prince seated himself in his long arm
chair, put his feet upon a leg rest. and
evidently he was settled down for a
good talk.
He asked me what | should like him
to relate. l said, pray. sir. tell me
any story that comes into your head
Putting vigorously at his pipe. the fol
lowing story was slowly developed:
~My grandfather served for three
years under Frederick the Great and
told me this anecdote: An ensign made
a blunder during the OF
troops at a review. The king. as was
his wont when annoyed. fell into a VIC
lent rage and pursued the terrified en-
sign, stick In hand. The young soldier
ran for very life and jumped a ditch
leaving the king upon the other side
shaking his stick at him in a fury.
shortly after the escape OF the en-
sign the colonel of the regiment came
up to the king and said, Your majesty,
the young man committed a blundeT
doubtless. l have just received his res
ignation from your majesty's service,
placing the document into the kings
hands. I am sorry for It. for he was a
good officer. but he can take no other
step under the circumstances
'aThe king answered. Send him to
me- The ensign was sent for and
came, trembling. lest this time the
stripes should in reality fall upon his
shoulders or. still worse. be might be
sent tt prison. Without any preface
the king replied. Here Is your captain
cy. sir. which ! ~endeavored to give you
this morning. but you ran away SC
swiftly that my old legs could not
catch you up.'"-Sir W. B. Richmond

He displayed pamphlets dealing de-
negatively with the public ownership
principle which have been circulated

Resolution Adopted Against His

Wednesday November 18th, over the
protest of President .Gompers, the A.
F. Of l., convention by a. vote Of $50
to 80 adopted resolution number 81
raising his salary to $500 per year
and that of the secretary to- 5000
per year. -: =.
The Resolution, =.
Resolution No. 67-By delegate
Henry Media, of Central Labor Union,
Of Washington D. C.
WHEREAS, the splendid growth
and the high standing of the American
Federation Of Labor in this country
has been brought about largely
through the intelligent leadership Of
the president. Samuel Gompers, and
the indefatigable work on the part Of
its secretary, Frank Merrison; and
WHEREAS, the salaries paid these
officials in comparison with. salaries
paid to officials occupying positions
Of far less Importance and RESPONSE
bility In our industrial establishments
Is much too small; therefore, be It,
Resolved, that on and after jan
uaryS I, 1915, the salary ~ the pres-
dent Of the A.; F.. of sL.' be made
$500 per year and thataof the Sec
rotary of the A. F. Of L. be made
$1,000 a year. > :: ;.
Upon a motion being made and
seconded that the favorable recon-
mendation Of the resolution committee
be accepted. President Gompers took
the opportunity to enter his protest.
He made brief statement in part as
follows:
When in the five years Of the ex-
istence of the Federation I gave ser
vice without any Compensation or
salary. then when the question was
that salary Of $1,000 be paid. then
the question Of raising it to- $1,000
three or four years later came up,
| and so on, never remained in the
convention hall while question of
| that character was up. I always
thought I ought not embarrass the
delegates Of the convention in dis
| raised the salary Of the president to
! $4,000 and the salary of the secretary
| to $4,000. The constitution provides
that the salary shall be determined at
| the convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. It has never been
preached since the Norfolk conven-
ton; it has simply been taken as a
| matter of fact that that salary, unless
it was otherwise determined, should
| continue. When I was in Europe as
a fraternal delegate FIVE years ago one
! Of the biggest things that was hurled
against our movement and me in Paris
| was the idea of g. man in the labor
movement getting rs, 900 francs q year.
We have a great mass of men and
women Of labor who are yet .unorgan-
lied, and while you who have worked
| with me so long would understand, TO
them salary Of such character would
be- appalling, and it. is my earnest
wish, and say it to you all in candor,
that you do not do It, -: -, =,
