Autopatriots.

The response of the automobile own
hrs of Washington to the autopatriot
plan is gratifying, but there is still
room for more volunteers for the
sightseeing tour of the capital to be Civ
en- this afternoon to soldiers, sailors and
marines from the camps and canton
ments in and around the city.
The public invitation to Washing
ION automobile owners is to volunteer
the use Of your automobile for an hour
and quarter Sunday, March "a, to give
the soldiers and sailors visiting Wash
hgton from nearby camps a sightseeing
sour of Washington"
The ears are to be assembled in front
pf United Service Club No. 1, which is
st 6s6 Pennsylvania avenue. The time
net for the assembly is 2:3o and the
start is to be made at 3 o'clock, the lead
being taken by the White House cars
followed by car from the British EN-
bassy, and that by ears sent by cabinet
sficers.
The plan offers an opportunity fol
men and women to volunteer for a lit
tie service to men who are giving grea
deal to the country.

SAVING DAYLIGHT.

From the Brooklyn journal.
1t may be little hard, at first to
get up an hour earlier in the morning,
to save daylight, and to go to bed an
hour earlier at night. But there will
be no difficulty at all about knocking
off work an hour earlier in the after
noon.
From the Boston Globe.
Beginning Easter day, a good many
people will begin to save daylight who
never have been able to save anything
else.
From the Pittsburgh Gaxette-Times.
AS the President has signed the bill,
an extra hour of daylight for showing
the new Easter costumes is assured.
From the Seattle Post-InteIligencer.
Aside from our static obstinacy,
there doesn't appear to be any reason
for opposing this reform, which, as has

ably the first that doesn't make money

one.

Accidents on the River.

One man is reported drowned by the
overturning of a canoe in the swirling
and rushing current of the Potomac
near Chain bridge, while another man
who was his companion escaped death
by narrow margin. Other deaths
from accidents of this nature will hap
pen this year. Good young lives will be
snuffcd out and homes will be grief
stricken. 1t is all very sad, and still
sadder because it need not be. Yet it
seems almost hopeless and futile to
preach the doctrine of caution. If one
man says canoe is dangerous another
man will bristle up and contend that it
is safer than a fat-bottom rowboat or
mudscow. Usually he will qualify
his remark with the proviso, "if the
canoeist knows his business" or off the
canoeist is an expert with the paddle"
Then comes up the question as to when
a canoeist knows his business and when
is a man an expert with the paddle. To
tell a young man with a canoe that he
does not know al about the slender
craft would invite an argument or
something more animated. Every man
considers himself an expert, or would
have others consider him an expert, in
any sport he may adopt, even though he
adopted that sport but yesterday.
A man takes chances for various rea-
sons or for no reason at all. Sometimes
he takes them through ignorance, not
knowing that they are chances He does
not pause to think that there is danger
| This is heedlessness that is common
among young men. In some there is a
disposition to take unnecessary chances
because of belief that luck will see one
through, and because of the exhilaration
that comes through taking chances
| This characteristic is also a mark of
youth
A man may set forth till doomsday
that chances are not to be taken by
ca 1oeists or swimmers, yet fatalities in
/ the river will occur. Parents should
see that their sons know how to swim
| row, paddle canoe, skate, shoot q
rife, ride horse, box and wrestle, but
that unnecessary risks are to be Stunned
and care used in the practice of the
sports.

Notable Fruits of Factionism.

Warner Miller, just dead, was lead
ing figure IN the republican row in New
York more than quarter century ago
whose ultimate result was the restora-
ton of the democratic party to national
control after stay of quarter CEN
fury in the wilderness. The republicans
split into two factions, called the "stal-
warts" and the "half breeds" Mr.. Miller
was a "half- breed" The faationism cost
the republicans the governorship of the
state in 1882, and two years later con-
tributed to the election of Grover Geve-
land to- the presidency.

leans had enjoyed similar good fortune

the city of st. Mary, but it is the an
niversary of the first landing which the
pilgrims made ON an island in the Po-
tomac river within the bou1daries Of
Maryland. as they were described in the
charter which Charles 1 gave to Lord
Baltimore, June 90, 1852. The identity
of that island has long been matter
Of dispute.
From this island, called st. Clements,
| "thought to be Blackstone's Island" ex-
cursions were made along the Potomac
river for the purpose of choosing what
seemed to the explorers the fairest site
for city, always keeping in mind that
the site must be fortified for protec-
ton against Indian assault. 1t is re-
lated that Capt. Henry Fleet of Vir-
ginia, long associated with the Mary
land Indians before the coming of the
Calvert colonists, and who was no doubt
familiar with the site of the city of
Washington, directed the leaders of
the eolonists to spot suitable for the
site of town, and weighing anchor, the
whole colony sailed from St. Clements"
They sailed up river, tributary to the
Potomac, and which they named "St.
Mary's river" About ten miles above
its confluence with the Potomac there
was on one side of the river the village
of the Indian chief, Yaocomico. On the
other shore they selected site for
town, "and having purchased from the
Indians, in exchange for hatchets, axes,
hoes and cloth, about thirty miles of
territory. which they called Augusta
Caroline now the county of st. Marys.
they landed and began the founding of
the city Of st. Marys."
Few vastiges of the city remain. Like
Jamestown in Virginia, it suffered from
disastrous fires and instruction or rev
olution, whichever term may be pre-
ferred. When the capital of Maryland
was removed to Providence, now An
napois, at the time the Protestant party
gained ascendance in Maryland during
the reign of William and Mary, st.
Marys City decayed. 1t was swept by
fire. The ruins of the buildings were
partly carted off and partly covered
with soil ard forest. In late years the
sites of the various buildings have been
located and foundations uncovered. 1t
is the story of jamestown over again.
The outlines of the first state house
have been marked, and nearby is tall
gray granite monument, set there by the
state of Maryland.

POLITICS AT HOME
New York.

Gov. Whitman will stand for third
term. This has been in the calculation
Of both parties for some time. The def
mite announcement, however, brings the
New York situation into full relief.
On the republican side there is no
body else in the picture. It is @Pikes
Peak, or bust" Gov. Whitman has had
one successful term. and is now having
success in a second. It is true he is
having troubles Nevertheless, he is
making progress. and has made so much
progress he quite dominates matters
The republican equation without him
would be q puzzle. As respects the
gubernatorial nomination he is first, and
the other party leaders nowhere.
IF Gov. Whitman makes goal the third
time he should. and probably viii, be a
very influential man in republican ma,
tional circles in 1920. Not necessarily
the next republican candidate for Presi.
dent. But, as may easily be seen, if he
continues to hold New York in line for
his party he should cut an interesting
figure at the next republican national
convention, and at the least have some
thing of importance to say as to the
bestowal Of the conventions prize.
Now, with whom will the New York
democrats oppose the governors He
must, to begin with, be unifer. There
are two democratic factions in the
state; and at present they are far apart
Tho candidate, to win, must have the
support of both.
The demand for Secretary McAdoo is
subsiding, as the result, Of course, of
the impossibiliry of his yielding. In
order to make the race he would have
to retire from his present engagements
"a thing out of the question. He has
more engagements than even the Presi-
dent.

Hearst. Some recent compliments paid

Interpretation. Richard Croker is said

of Buffalo, just back from Florida,
where recently there has been much po-
litical CONTEMPLATION, openly proposes
Mr.. Hearst. Tammany has not spoken ;
but as the organization has once sup
ported Mr. Hearst for governor, assump-
ton is that it will be willing to do SO
again.
Can the national administration be
brought into lime? Mr. Hearst, after a
period Of severe criticism, has recently
become an outspoken admirer of the
President. His tributes are warm in
the extreme, and embrace both the
Presidents foreign and domestic poll
cies.
Always interesting, New York is TAX
ing her place at the head of this years
procession, and will hold the place to
the end of the campaign.
