Strenuous Campaigning.

Mrs. Harold Mccormick, prominent
in the movement for suffrage for
women, announces a new program
for herself. While still greatly in
terested in the cause, she will hence
forth conhne her activities to her
home city of Chicago. She is in
health, but admits very frankly that,
after two years of experience, she is
tired of living on railroad trains,
depending on railway lunchrooms for
meals and working twenty hours a
day"
The fact that Mrs. Mccormick was
able to stick to her task for two years
is a TESTIMONIAL at once to her physi-
cal strength and to the ardor of her
purpose. The life she describes
would be trying for the same length
OF time to the average man. To a
woman = much more delicately or.
ganized-it must have been taxing in
the extreme.
Here again are brought forward
the two American politicians who
have given to campaigning what may
be called new terror. Reference. OF
course. is to Mr.. Bryan and Mr.
Roosevelt. The former has had q
full twenty years, and the latter .
full fifteen, of what Mrs. Mccormick
has tired of in two. Mr.. Bryan in
particular has almost been living or
railroad trains. The hammer-hamme,
1t coach wheels has probably sun.

Forecasts Of the Winter.

Amateur meteorologists throughout
the United States are declaring their
independence of the weather bureau
and are settling for themselves what
will be the character of the coming
winter. And the various prophets are
turning out so many prophecies that
some will surely come true and thus
maintain the standing of the prophets
and the prophecies.
A popular forecast is that the win
ter will be hard one. Prophets who
lay stress on hard winter are sell
dom without honor, even in their own
country. especially if their own coun-
try be northern one. A good cold
spell and blizzard or two may con.
stitute hard winter, for weather oil
that kind is very impressive while il
lasts.
On the other hand, there are
prophets who maintain that the win.
ter will be an open one, and for these
prophets there is hope that they will
maintain their reputation, becaus.

And yet both men have thrived
physically on the racket. Both are
heavier than when they began; and
they have profted in other ways.
Neither, it is safe to say. could be

Invitations beckon. Crowds await
with impotence their coming. What
to others would be a burden and a
bore is to them an opportunity of
charm.
This spirit has spread beyond poll
tics. 1t has invaded even the church.
A material increase is to be noted in
the number of evangelists-speakers
of eloquence, travelling from town to
town-rapidly at times, and making
frequent changes-who feel a desire
to look into new faces and try their
powers in new places. They put
aside the quiet and comforts of a
settled charge for the excitements
and Inconvenience of a rowing COM
mission.
In the main, however, such life
is for a man. Few women have the
physical strength Or the taste for a
protracted service of that kind. 1t
gets on their nerves; and when it
does those who have undertaken it
soon, as Mrs. Mccormick has done,
forego wandering, and return to all
the comforts of home"

Many of the signers, in fact a great
majority of them, were men whose
memory the average American does
not preserve. A man may know tina,
the Adamses, Charles Carroll, Samue
Chase, Benjamin Franklin, Elbridge
, Gerry, John Hancock, Benjamin Har-
rison, Thomas Jefferson, Richard
Henry Lee, Francis Lightfoot Lee
Philip Livingston, Robert Morris
William Paca, Robert Treat Paine
Edward Rutledge, Roger Sherman

colt were signers, but what of all
the others? How many men can re-
call the names and service of such
gallant Americans as Bartlett, Brax-
ton, Clarke, Clymer. Floyd, Gwinnett,
Hall, Walton, Whipple, Williams,
Wilson, Wythe and all the others?
Of the ffty-six signers, eight -
Gwinnett, Hewes, Livingston, Lynch,
Morton, Ross, Stockton and Taylor
- died before the independence of
the United States was won and &C
knowledged by England while two
of them, Thomas Jefferson and John
Adams, lived until 1896, both of them
passing away July 4, and Charles
Carroll lived until 1882. Adams died
at the age of ninety-one, Jefferson
at the age of eighty-three and Car
roll at the age of ninety-six. Thomas
Lynch of South Carolina, who, like
Edward Rutledge of the same state,
was only twenty-seven years old
when. he signed the immortal docu-
ment, died at the age of 80, in 1879,
while Button Gwinnett of Georgia
and John Morton of Pennsylvania
died in I777. Only one other of the
signers lived to be as old as Charles
Carroll, and he was James Smith of
Pennsylvania, one of the three Irish
born signers, who died in 1906 at the
age of ninety-six.
In that brave and patriotic body of
signers were lawyers, merchants,
farmers, physicians. soldiers, a min
lister, a surveyor and a printer, and
two who gave their occupations as
a shoemaker and a sailor, Roger
Sherman of Connecticut being the
shoemaker and William Whipple of
the same state the sailor. The names
of the signers should be preserved in
stone and bronze. They should have
a temple at the capital of their
country.

Making Ready for Defense.

National preparedness for defense
is looking up. Its friends are speak
ing out and many men of influence
not visib1y interested in the question
before are lending their voices to the
chorus and the cause. The thing to
do is to keep up the good work. Con-
sress will not have to put its ear to
the ground to hear the voice of the
people.
Senator George E. Chamberlain,
chairman of the Senate committee
on military affairs. is reported as
having said in the course of an in
terview at Portland, Ore. that he
favors a navy as strong as any in
the world. His words as reported
were: "Our navy must be as strong
as any in the world, for we have the
Atlantic and the Pacific coasts to
protect" Senator Chamberlain is
not so enthusiastic about a strong
army, but he would have efficient.
we'll trained and we'll equipped men
with an adequate reserve. Senator
Chamberlain is a big navy man, but
not big army man, but his influence
goes toward national preparedness.
Ex-Gov. Folk of Missouri, in
speaking before a throng of Caro-
linians at the Kings mountain battle
anniversary, said: while other ma
tons have their armies and their
navies we must have a navy big
enough to protect US against even a
world in arms and an army large
enough to defend us from foreign
greed" No doubt the expression of
this sentiment drew a round of APP
plause.
While men in every part of the
land are urging appropriate national
defense measures it is announced in
the news that a fve-million-dollar
research laboratory for the working
out of higher naval problems will be
asked from Congress by Secretary
Daniels, as the result of the first
meeting of the navy's new civilian
board. Here, then, is one step in
preparedness. and the suggestion
comes not from professional naval
men, but from the civilian advisory
board. a fact which should weigh
heavily with Congress.

Memorial to the sisners.

The erection of a memorial in

Declaration of independence is a
proposition worthy of promotion and

names should be so displayed that

Each did his level best
To WIN his game, and win II fair,
And each man stood the test.

Mr.. McAdoo's Journey.

Secretary McAdoo oeginS HIS UP
: across the continent Tuesday. lie
: will make a number of stops, and
: reach San Francisco on the 10th.
The purpose of the trip has to do
: with public buildings in contempla-
5 ton or in course of construction by
; the government. Much criticism has
been directed at that feature Of con-
sressional appropriations. 1t has been
in the charge about pork. That
sort of kissing, like the river and
: harbor kissing, has gone by favor.
Some very insignificant towns have
: drawn prizes, and some cities enor-
nous allowances, through the in
fuence of popular senators and rep
resentatives.
: 1t is not likely, however, that Mr..
iiMcAdoo will conhne himself to that
subject, interesting as it is. He will
have opportunity to confer with
many men of political and business
!. light and leading on variety OF sub
!. jects, and should improve it.
1t so happens that the Secretary is
: now preparing, or will soon begin the
! preparation of, most elaborate and
|. important report his annual report
to Congress. These topics will call
for discussion by him: The tariff, a
|. merchant marine, the workings of
: the new currency law, larger trade
! relations with Latin America and
; rural credits.
/. Not one of these subjects is with
. out national import. All touch lead
ing points of our national activities.
Both Congress and the country
will expect definite recommendations
from the financial adviser of the adj
ministration.
The time is we'll chosen, therefore,
for Mr.. McAdoo to get into personal
touch with as wide a sweep of the
country as possible; for him to see
and hear for himself just what the
situation is; for him to digest in
formation of so much value before
passing upon it in state paper OF
great moment.
The Secretary of the Treasury
must solve the question-to his own
satisfaction at least-of how the
government shall make both ends
meet. At the present time they are
not meeting. There is wide gap to
be filed; and unless it is filled
promptly the consequences both to
s.the administration and to the coun-
try may be very embarrassing. There
should be economy; but mere re-
duction of expenditures, instead of
being economy, might prove to be
waste. Things deserving of support
should receive liberal support. To
neglect them might be to destroy
them.
On all these matters Congress must
act, but will first hear from Mr.. Nc
Adoo, and will, of course. give his
views full consideration.
