ADMIRAL DEWEY

Admiral Dewey was typical
American sailor-man of the old, old
school, the embodiment of the finest
traditions of the American Navy.
Trained from his youth in his chos-
en- profession, receiving his baptism
of fire under that fighting old sea dog,
Farragut, following the sea for 81
years, one of the longest, if not the
longest periods of continuous naval
services on record; he passed through
every grade Of service from midship-
man to that of Admiral, or Command
er-in-C Chief of the American navy
without receiving any demerit mark
or official censure.
Always correct in dress and deport-
ment, a strict disciplinarian, saying
little but doing much, he will always
remain a striking figure in American
history.
He was never assigned a task he
failed to perform; duty was his fetish
facing death was merely an Incl
dent with him and the secret of his
success lay in the fact taht he was
always ready.

ufacture or sell within the state, or
ship into the state, beer, whiskles or
wines, except for medicinal and sacra-
mental purposes.
At the puDllc hearings on the bill
before the house temperance commit
tee, the brewers and retailers split,
and the brewers outside the state rep
resented still another angle.
AS a result of the recent hearings
w. 1. Norton of the house temperance
committee, succeeded in having the
bill amended to permit brewers from
outside the state to ship their mer-
chandise into the state direct to the
consumer in original packages. Mr..
Norton has for several sessions been
recognized as the "dry" leader on the
floor of the house. There was some
opposition to the amendment in the
committee but he succeeded in pass
ing it.
The Herald is in sympathy with the
idea of dry state. This paper does
not accept liquor advertising of any
kind. Nevertheless we had hoped that
the temperance leaders would wait a
couple of years before they tackled
prohibition in order that the people
mighe realize fully the benefits to be
derived under the county option law.
The Herald may be dense, but we
cannot grasp the big idea in prohib-
ting the brewers of Minnesota from
shipping their wares in original pack
ag wnlIe the right is accorded the
brewers located outside the state. To
the Herald it looks like cheap and ill
advised politics.
Mr.. Norton may figure that this
move will bring added strength to the
amendment in the way of votes, while
the very opposite is more likely to
happen. The outside brewers will not
assist in any temperance legislation
past experience is proof of that. If it
is wrong for the home brewer to man.
ufacture and sell, it is certainly just
as wicked for booze to be shipped in
beyond an imaginary line.
There is an old saying that politics
makes queer bed fellows. The bill as
recommended for passage looks queer,
surely.
1t is perfectly right and proper that
the people of Minnesota should be Civ
en- the opportunity to vote upon the
proposition of making the state dry
The liquor interests are scared stiff
over the outcome of the question.
Their very attitude before the hear
ings was proof of this.
That being the case, what then has
Mr.. Norton gained by his compro-
mise? A leader must have nerve
enough to stand up to the rack. Mr.
Norton appears in the crisis, to the
Herald, to have fallen down lament
ably in his leadership.-A. M. w.

THE SPEECH FROM THE THRONE

For the second time in the history
of the Republic President of the
United States has entered the senate
chamber and proceeded to address the
senators in person instead of by writ
ten message.
We frankly confess we do not like
the innovation. 1t smacks of royalty.
1t harks back to the Speech from
the Throne" 1t is a feeble replica
of the ancient days of English mon
archal rule, before the Magma Charta
period, when the king, by royal proc
lamation assembled the parliament
and if it failed to obey his behests, he
promptly prorouged it and sent its
rs back to their homes.
President Wilson is a curious COM
bination of modern, liberal democracy
and archaic mediaevalism.
That clause of the constitution
which reads that the President shall
do certain things with "the advice and
consent of the Senate he interprets
as that the Senate shall do certain
things with the advice and at the
command Of the President" Uncon-
sciously, perhaps, but nevertheless
manifestly, he assumes the preroga-
tives of royalty and regards the Con-
gress and the Judiciary as subordinate
instead of coordinate branches Of the
government, and assumes the right of
dictum. This idea stands out as prom
inently in his speech as the mirrors
in bar room.
Outside of this, there is little of
his speech to criticise. 1t is lofty and
couched in sublime poetical prose.
AS vision of millennial conditions
when men and nations shall recogniz
the Golden Rule as the supreme law
of national and individual conduct, it
is masterpiece-and that is all.
The warning nations will pay no
WORE attention to it than unrully
children pay to an indulgent mother
who always scolds but never spanks.

An Explanation
A friend writes US and calls our
attention to the fact that divergent
statements often appear in the col
umns of the Herald. This is due to
the fact that this paper has both a
regular and occasional editor. How
ever, we think it is due to the numer-
Gus readers of this great elucidator
of public problems to inform them
that when this difference occurs the
occasional editor is always right.
How We Would Do 1t
Instead of allowing double pay for
overtime on railroads, we would pay
handsome bonus to the crews who
brought their trains in on time or
ahead of schedule and fine them for
every minute they were late.
Easy.
IF the people of the United States
would eschew the use of candy, gum,
tobacco, beer and booze, the use of
which benefits no one, the H c of L
would be bumped to the tune of three
billion five hundred million dollars an
nually.
