A Day Of Remuneration.

Today the nation will do reverence to the
men asleep in honored tombs who fought and
won the battles to which It owes its life. Memorial
Day comes to find again almost all of the peoples
of the other hemis phere at war and some in
this country with eyes still closed to the lesson
of their struggle. We still hear preached the
dangerous doctrine that the sons and grandsons
OF those patriots whose graves will be heaped
with blossoms today should go unarmed, recon
ciled to meek submission to the demands of
the first enemy.
Today there will be many at Arlington Gene
terry who will let imagination lead them for a
moment and they will see a great army rise
in protest and they will hear the soldiers who
met and trumphed over their countrys foemeu
asking: Did we fight and win and die for free
dom only that sons might in the end sur
render it as something not worth keeping?
Surely this is day for those apostles Of
ldishonor and surrender, rather than just war,
to be abroad, and surely the day is near when
oblivion will be to them welcome refuge from
the scorn of the ninety and nine millions of more
worthy Americans.
This Memorial Day comes at a time when
the superb old American spirit is soaring above
the little world of the soths and cravens toward
its zenith again Today and on the Flag Day
and the day Of the Capitals demonstration for
low the country will rcconsecrate itself to those
things for which the fathers strove, that their
memory may not be disgraced

Early Printers Grave Neglected.

The body of William Bradford, printer, who
died May 20, 1852, lies in Trinity Churchyard
downtown On Decoration Day this grave is
often the only left unmarked of all the
Revolutionary and preRevolutionary mounds.
1t occurred to Mrs. Laura Dunlap, of the
Globe. that it would be fitting for the employees
of the Globe and the Evening Post the two
oldest newspapers in the city, to contribute a
little fund this year for flowers for this print
er's grave. Some one hundred and fifty en-
ployes of the two newspapers contributed, and
suitable wreath is being placed to the mem
DRY OF William Bradford.
The inscription on the stone is as follows:
Here lies the BODY OF Mr.. William Brad
ford, printer, who departed this life May 81
1882 aged o. years. He was born in Lester
shire, in Old England, in 1860 and came over to
America in 1852 before the City of Philadelphia
was laid out. He was printer to the govern
ment for upwards Of fifty years, and being
quite worn out with old age and labor, he left
this mortal state in the lively hope of blessed
immortality.
Reader reflect how soon you will quit this
Stage,
You'll And how few attain to such an Age,
LIES full of Pain Lo Here's place of Rest,
Prepare to meet your God. Then you are Blest.
Here also lies the body Of Elizabeth, wife
to the said William Bradford, who departed
this life, July 8, 1881, aged IS years

An Endorsement to Be Avoided.

a group OF persons proclalming themselves
the custodians Of the hyphenated vote have de-
lclared against Roosevelt and Root, and, graft
flying as the declaration must be to these can
didates for the Republican nomination, other
aspirants doubt are viewing apprehensively
the process of elimination. And their concern
is justified for if elimination is to continue,
some will doubtless be left bearing the stigma
of the hyphenated approval or there may be
even a worse fate in store for one of them; in
the form OF an out-and-out hyphenated ndorse-
.ment
Naturally, the convention would view
with doubt and suspicion any man who as Presi-
dent would suit those who are not Americans
hrst. 1t would be necessary before selecting
such a man as the Republican standard bearer,
to take stock Of the reasons for such preference
and to make calculations of how many real
American votes the hyphenated Endorsement
would cost him. 1t might easily happen that
such Endorsement would blast the hopes of some
now prominent candidate, whether his rejection
on that ground would be justihable or not 1t
rs conceivable that the nomination Of Justice
Hughes, now the leading candidate, might be
prevented by expression Of hyphenated over
tondess, though it may we'll be doubted whether
1t would weaken him opponent of Presi-
dent Wilson, since there is no shadow OF
uouOt OF MS sterhng Amercanlsm. Also, il is
quite safe to assume that, once in the cam
paign, Justice Hughes would find it quite easy
to counteract the effect of any expressions of
approval from German sources
After ALL there is no assurance that the Ger
man vote will be cast very much more solidlv
in one direction this year than in the past MANY
who are capable Of reviewing President Wilson's
administration without prejudice may be ex-
pected to vote for him, while Others whose
wisdom is open to question, will be disposed
TO expect greater consideration for Germany
from the Republican candidate, and will cast
their votes accordingly, But when everything
is considered, we need not expect any Presi-
dental aspirant to seek the Endorsement of the
hyPhenated, either before or after the conven-
ton.

Better and Bigger Than War Orders.

Some of us have been emphasizing for several
years the benehcent effect upon national pros
perity which would follow if the periodical
slumps in railway construction and bettcrment
could be avoided mnnized. My friend, Mr..
E. B. Leigh, of Chicago, has had constructed
and keeps up to date chart showing that when
railway purchases are slack general business is
dull and that when railway purchases are re-
sumed in good volume, general business activity
starts up again.
The prosperity which we are now enjoying
lis absolutely and solely founded upon the manu-
facture of munitions Textile makers busy
because employees of munition works have money
Ito spend. Whatever renewal there has been
LOT railway purchases has been done with money
earned primarily in carrying munitions, the
material and machinery used in producing NUM-
tons
lperlty as If by magic with the carrying out Of
munitions contracts. Quite wildly is it pos
slble to foresee the sudden evaporation OF bust
ness should this basic factor be removed.
In my judgment it is national necessity that
the people shall fully understand the harm which
they do themselves when they neglect to foster
IN every proper way the instrumentaties Of
transportation. Such an understanding has I'M
dou6tedly made great progress. The tone OF dis
cussion in the press, in business organizations
and in legislative bodies has become of candid
the mind of is constituted that dramatic
occurrences such as going in Mexico and
in our diplomatic exchanges with Germany, as
we'll as in the field of national politics, to
divert attention from so unromantc a theme
as the improvement of system for regulat-
ing railways Such improvement is urgently es-
sential and only be wisely carried out if the
various phases thoroughly debated and an
intelligent public opinion formed with regard to
them.
The question whether investment shall once
more flow into railway enterprises is identical
to exclude state jurisdiction Where it conflicts
with Federal; (2) to strengthen and simplify
the Federal regulatory machinery, and 90 to
adopt for guidance of the Interstate Commerce
Commission the statutory rule that earnings are
to be permitted sufficient TO attract new invest
ment. 1t is not too much to say that upon the
carrying out of such program by Congress will
depend railway betterments additions and extern
sions, and upon these IN turn the filling Of the
void which will be created at the close of the
war by the sudden withdrawal of munitions
manufacture.-George A. Post in Leslie's.
The Washington herald., 1916-05-30

1t was Mr. Clevelands conduct Of ad-
ministration and his attitude towards
| Congress rather than large questions OF
| policy or Of party management that helo
the attention of the country throughout
the four years of his term.
The House kept its Democratic, the
Senate its Republican majority. and party
| legislation was still out Of the question.
All energy and initiative seemed for the
time summed up in the President. His
quality was as unmistakable as General
Jackson's, and yet he had none Of Gen
| eral Jackson's blind impetuosity or mere
wilfulness. His individuality was the
more marked because he stood apart
| from the houses as power set to check
and criticise them.
He had never been a member Of a
| legislative body. From first to last his
experience in public service had been
that OF an executive officer. He held
very literally. therefore, to the theory
! that Congress and the President were
not so much associated as offset in the
structure of the government, and was
inclined TO be a strict doctrinaire in the
exercise Of a complete independence OF
congressional suggestion.
What most attracted the attention of
the country, aside from his action in the
matter Of appointments TO ONCE, was the
extra ordinary number OF his vetoes Most
of them were uttered against pension
bills great and small. Both Democratic
House and Republican Senate were in
clined to grant any man or class of men
who had served in the federal armies
during the civil war the right to be sup
ported out Of the national Treasury, and
Mr.. Cleveland set himself very resolute-
ly TO check their eXtravagance He
deemed it enough that those who had
| been actually disabled should receive pen
sions from the government. and regard
ed additional gifts. for mere service, both
an unjusthable use Of the public money
and gross abuse Of charity.
When the Senate sought 70 revive
against him the principles of the
Tenure Of Office Act. which had been
passed to thwart Mr.. Johnson but suf-
fered to lie forgotten so long as Re-
puolicans were in the presidency, and
inquired into his reasons for certain
removals from office he met II with
an assertion OF his constitutional
rights as Executive as imperative as
General Jackson would have uttered
rest
Both houses learned to respect his
intelligence. his conscience, his unhesi.
tating will with a touch of fear such
as they had felt towards no other
President they could remember.
The new tenor OF reform and Of in.
dlVldual responsibility he had brought
! into affairs seemed in some measure
| TO touch Congress also and to dispose
1t to apply itself to i'm portant matter,
| OF business which had too long waited
TO be dealt with. and which could be
! ha ndled without partisan heat
The most important Of these was the
establishment Of a fixed order Of sue
cesslon TO the presidency, in case OF
the death or disability of both the
| President and the Vice President. A
bill amending the law in that matter
| had been formulated in the Senate as
long ago as the summer of 1882. and

Tangier Island.

Tangier Island, in the Potomac River near
Chesapeake Bay recently visited by President
Wilson and his party while a weekend trip,
is thus described in a Washington letter in the
New York Herald:
THE yards are small-not larger than two
good-sized rooms-but in each of them are
graves, here four Ave and there nine or ten,
with elaborate monuments and headstones. The
lawns are green and we'll kept, with neat walks
and fences Flowers grow around the graves.
"Tanger is one of the few towns in the
Icountry-maybe the only town-which never has
had a motor car There are no horses or wagons
there, either, for there is no place for them.
The single street which the town boasts is
only six feet wide. The only way to get there
lis by fat-bottom boat, for the water is so
shallow that the tender OF a yacht can not
be brought to shore. There are no docks.
There has not been murder in Tangier
for more than forty years The people are so
good they do not have a sheriff or any other
officer Of the law.
The inhabitants are fishermen who ply their
trade every day in Chesapeake Bay, selling their
catches to the aboard the schooners which
sail between Washington Baltimore and Nor
folk. There saloons the island. There
was rot single wet" vote when prohibition
was voted at special election several years
ago.
There is no race suicide on Tangier Island.
Some idea of the number Of children there can
be had by considering the fact that out of a
population of 1900 persons there only about
50 voters"
