MAY BOTH. NOT oBsER ED.

Last Tuesday was the day set apart
by the Nation for the decoration of
the last resting place of our departed
loved ones, the custom really origin
ated with the Grand Army of The
Republic and United Confederate
Veterans. AS we now recall, the G..
A. R. was the first organization to
urge that the day be made national
holiday. ." CE~Es 1~
Decoration day has come to mean
almost nothing to the people of this
community, we do not know of any
public gathering, any exercises worth
mentioning, compared with the meet
ings held some 25 years back. We feel
that the custom should have been
kept up, not withstanding the fact
that the old heroes, both those who
wore the blue and those who wore
gray, have almost all answered
the last bugle call, have been muster
ed out of this life of activities and
into that of the great beyond.
Yes, when they were here in great
numbers, we remember in our boy
hood days, the patriotic inspiring
meetings, parades, songs. Rotations
and speeches. We feel that the OBJ
servation of the day could have been
kept up by the younger generation
with much profit to the Country in a
patriotic way. These services not
only breed a desire for peace, but in
still patriotism as we'll. Too many Of
us are giving more thought to bus
mess and personal pleasure, so much
so that we rarely think of those who
fought and died upon the fields of
honor, to say nothing of those who
by reason of the great struggle have
since been placed prematurely in the
bosom of mother earth.
We are much inclined to the Opin-
ion that it is not to the credit of the
younger generation that decoration
day is not observed as it once was.

ARMOUR PLATE PLANT WINS
BY BIG MAJORITY IN HOUSE

Washington, May 31.-Amend-
ments to the naval appropriation bill
to provide for an S11, 100000 gov
eminent armour plate plant, for 49,
500, 900 instead of 100000 worth
of aeroplanes, for 2,730 additional
sailors, and a bonus system to en-
courage the speedy private construc-
tion of warships was adopted today
by the house sitting as a committee
of the whole.
Party lines were broken down on
every vote. Twenty-three Republi-
cans, and two Progressives joined
the Democrats in voting for the ar
NOR plate proposal, the final vote be-
ing 165 to 81. Thirteen Democrats
lined up with the Republicans on the
additional aeroplane amendment,
which carried 129 to 1913. Other
amendments were adopted overwhel-
mingly without roll calls.
The armor plate amendemnt, al
ready passed as separate bill in the
senate, is centered largely around
the question of whether the Bethle-
hem Steel Company, the largest pri-
vate manufacturer of plate, had
treated the government fairly. Ftt

IILLES PREDICTS
BRIEF PLATFORM
TALKS OF PROBABLE ATTITUDE
OF ROOSEVELT TOWARD
a., REPUBLICANS.

Chicago, May 29.--Chairman Chas.
d. Hilles, of the Republican National
Committee, expressed the opinion
that the platform which will be
adopted by the National Convention
next month would be unusually brief,
and deal only with the most vital
public questions. From information
obtained in talking with party lead
ers on the subject he believes the
principal planks in the platform will
include the following:
A statement on Americanism.
& statement on preparedness for
adequate military and naval defense.
A declaration in favor of a protec-
tive tariff to be prepared by a nom
partisan tariff commission created by
Congress, with special attention to
the needs of the Industries of this
country after the close of the Euro
pean war.
A declaration in favor of a mer-
chant marine.
A statement dealing with the al
legged shortcomings of the Democratic
national administration.
On the question of national woman
suffrage, Chairman Hilles said there
was a difference of opinion among
the party leaders and he did not
know what action the convention
would take on the subject.
Hilles Refers to Il. X. -
In speaking of the probable action
of the Progressive National 6onven-
ton, to be held June Z in Chicago,
simultaneously with the Republican
National Convention, Chairman Hilles
said:
Il imagine everybody assumes that
the Progressives will nominate
Roosevelt for President. If the Re-
publican convention adopts a
straightforward, sincere. ringing dec
laration of the vital public questions
now being discussed, and dominates
man clearly equal to the important
tasks which will confront the next
President. Roosevelt might not think
there would be any need of his enter
ing the field. But if the Republicans
nominate a man who Mr.. Roosevelt
thinks is a misfortune, and adopts n
platform which he regards as bunk.
he may feel so outraged as to run,
and perhaps help re-elect President
Wilson"
Chairman Hilles denied a report
that the organization had ever
thought of attempting to force the
nomination of a candidate for Presi-
dent the first day of the convention.

THE OVERTURE.

The stage scenery for the great
Chicago convention is being placed
in order. Members of the orchestra
are cleaning their instruments, pack
ing cases and preparing to gather
for the grand overture June Z. There
was a little row in the orchestra four
years ago, over the leadership, and
the once powerful musical combina-
tion that for so many years caused
notes of prosperity to ring forth goes
to Chicago as two separate organiza-
tions. --TwrTFT sSs'
WHAT the Audience wants to know,
is will they strike up the same tune?
For several months individual MEM

noise to tune against. There will be
no discords, therefore, If the leaders
select the same music; the G. o. P.

REPUBLICANS In
PART VICTORIOUS
THIRTY SUBMARINES ADDED
AFTER HARD FIGHT FOR
BIGGER NAVY.

Washington, May 30.-Determin-
ed Republican efforts to enlarge the
building program of the naval APP
preparation bill, as reported from the
Naval Committee, resulted today in
the adoption IN the House, sitting as
committee of the whole, of an am
endment increasing the number of
submarines from twenty to fifty. Pro-
prosals TO provide for six battle cruz
sers, instead of five, and to add two
dreAdnoughts and two scouts cruisers
TO the program we're defeated after
lively fight.
In order to finish consideration of
the bill by the time fixed, 4 o'clock
Friday afternoon, the House had a
three-hour session today instead of
recessing over Memorial Day, as
usual.
So decisive were the votes against
additional battle and scout cruisers
that the bigger navy advocates vir-
tually have decided to abandon the
fight for them, but they still hope to
get the two battleships. Anoher a
tempt will be made when the House
returns to regular form on Friday.
Lost by Small Margin.
The battleship proposal was lost by
the narrow margin of sixteen votes,
$50 opposing and ia favoring. Four
teen Democrats voted for the amend
ment and eight Republicans opposed
it, Democrats supporting it were
Linthicum, Coady and Price. Mary
land; McAndrews, McDermott, Stone
and Gallagher. Illinois; Lazaro and
Dupre, Louisiana; O'Shaunessy,
Rhode island; Sherley, Kentucky;
Tague, Massachusetts; and Farley
and Driscoll, New York. Republic
! ans voting in the negative were Mon
dell, Wyoming; Nelson, Wisconsin;
Cramton, Michigan; Good, Green,
Haugen and Ramseyer, Iowa; and
The vote on increasing the sub
marines was ia to 104, seventeen
Democrats voting for it and no Re-
publicans opposing. The additional
undersea boats would be of the coast
defense type, seventeen of which al
ready were provided for by the bill.
Many members who have been urg-
ing that it would be better to eXpend
money on submarines than on battle
ships rallied to the support OF the
amendment after voting against the
battleship, proposal.
Daniels Is Present.
A vote of 100 to SO defeated the
proposal to construct six battlecruis-
ers instead of five, and the voce vote
against the proposal to increase the
number from four to six was so over
whelming that a rollcall was not
sought.
In opposing the proposed increase
of battle cruisers, Chairman Padgett,
of the Naval Committee, insisted that
the Republicans originally planned
to demand five such craft, but upon
learning that the majority report
recommend this number, they de-
cided to insist upon six. Closing of
debate at that point prevented an
answer from Representative Butler,
who is in charge of the bill for the
Republican side.
Secretary Daniels was alternately
on the fioor,of the House and in the
galleries thruout the session.
