city must not be neglected. The best
road beds must be provided for
Broad. Main and Cary streets, and
the busy cross streets must be looked
after.
A city's wealth and growth and
prosperity come from its streets. Good
roads leading into the city bring bet
ter business relations between agri-
cultural and urban interests. And IN
these days when thousands Of the
people of the country travel from
place to place in automobiles, there
must be good roads The improve
ments cannot stop at good roads. The
streets that lead out into the supur-
ban districts must be the best Such
streets lead to increased valuations.
and that leads to more revenue for
the city. and the improvements prove

CONGRESS WILL OPPOSE
ELEVATION OF MARCH
Storm to Break In Force When
Efforts Are Made to Rank Him
With Pershfng.

Washington. July 1s.-The storm
that Is brewing In congress over the
determination OF the President that
General Peyton C. March. chief Of
staff, be elevated to the permanent
rank of general simultaneously with
General Pershfng. will break In force
when tho war department sends to
congress the bill now being drafted
to carry out the Presidents wishes!
to give Pershing precedence OF rank
over March. many members OF Con-
gress arc manifestly hostile to the
plan to force them to vote on equal
rank to March while honoring PERISH
ing with the rank of permanent gem
eraL
1t was learned today at the war de-
pa-tment that the judge advocate gen.
eral had been instructed to prepare
a. single bill which will include the
names OF both Pershing and March.
This, according to some authorities,
will be fatal to the bill and probably
cause Its rejection.
Indication that the house military
committee desires to write its own
bills and to let each general stand
on his own merits, was evidenced to-
day by the Introduction OF two bills
by Julius Kahn. Of California. chair
man OF the committee. Each bill
creates the permanent rank Of gen.
era1 and provision is made for CIV
ing precedence in rank to ons< over
the other.
TT Is the function Of congress to
create the positions. the duty of the
President to I'LL them. and the right
OF the senate to confirm the appoint
ments,' said Representative Kahn in
commenting on the BILL
Representative Britton. Of Chicago,
also introduced a bill authorizing the
President to appoint General PERISH
Ing as permanent general in the
army for the remainder Of his life.
Representative Britton safe:
Il am convinced that the American
public feels that General Pershing
has contributed no small part toward
the successful conclusion Of the war
with Germany. and that he Is one OF
the foremost military men OF tho
present generation.
II have purpose1y avoided including
the name Of General March in the
bill because OF the late hour he CANA
into the foremost position in the war
department on this side OF the water.

There ID no question that General
March. who was ssnt to the United
States with the approval OF General
Pershing. to be chief Of stan AZ sue
cessor to General Bliss. had BEEN
criticized not only privately. but also

DIFFICULTY IN START
OF STEAM NAVIGATION
Credit Given to Robert Fulton--In-
tcrested In Selling Torpedo In
vention to the United States
Government
(By William q. simmons,


In these days. when aerial trans
port across land and sea Is coming
about with no other interference that
natural obstacles, little thought is
given to the extraneous difficulties
that impeded attempts to introduce
steam navigation at its inception.
something more than a century ago.
The physical difficulties were formi-
dable indeed. but even after those
were practically overcome. Fictitious
obstacles were raised by thirst for
Individual profit that delayed its &C
complishment for many years.
Robert Fulton is generally accred-
tied now with the Introduction, n
not invention. OF tho steamboat. 1t Is
entirely proper to credit him with tho
first successful demonstration of the
applicability OF steam to the propul-
sion OF boats. but he was by no means
the originator of the idea. Fulton's
first steamboat, the Clermont. began
her epoch making voyage from New
York city to Albany on the after
noon OF August z 1907. but long ee-
fore. as early as 1887, some enter
prising Philadelphia men were ex-
perimenting on steam craft to run
un and down the Delaware. They be-
gan with a clumsy boiler. but within
year 5upcTScuGu IL Win n tubular
boiler. On July -. 1888. a boat pro-
PEELED by three paddles placed at the
stern started from Philadelphia for
Burlington. The experiment was not
unexpected. and crowds gathered
along the river banks to see the novel
craft go by. The trip was successful
to within hawscr's length OF the
landing at Burlington. when the boat
came ia sudden and unexpected
stop. The disa ppointed crowd on
shore were amazed. The success OF
the voyage was marrcd by the BURST
ing OF a boiler pipe. The passengers
went ashore in humiliation: the boat
drifted helplessly down stream: sail
Ing vessels going up stream carried
jeering crews who gave no heed to
tho call OF the crew for help. After
a time the exploded pipe was re-
paired. The boat completed It's voy-
age to Burlington and returned to
Philadelphia: new company was
another day was fxed for a
trip to Burlington. but q storm de-
lsyed the start. and the following
night the boat was burned to the
waters edge. In 1883 the boat was
repaired and made trip up the river,

THE MELANCHOLY KAISER.

general reputation for truth and YER
acity is minus quantity. He will
never be believed again. even should
he in an ungarded moment and by
accident, tell the truth. Worst of all,
his courage failed. When the time
OF danger came be went. He went
without ceremony or hesitation. The
world can forgive nearly any crime
but cowardice. No one can throw
up his hat at the sight of an alleged
great military leader wearing the
damning decoration of the white
feather.
Yes. he Is melancholy. He has
every right to be. The world has
condemned him. If he has any
mind, heart or conscience he must
condemn himself. He may be cut OFF
by the hand OF an assassin, or by his
own. Disease may lay him low. but
nothing can wipe out the ignominy
which he has earned in FIVE brief
years. The millions upon whom he
brought SO much suffering will not
be unduly disturbed because OF any
anguish which he has brought upon
himself

ton Of George. A. Kennedy, assistant
manager of the Animas mine, San

for a military guard.
Statements were also made to Con-
sui Dyer by Harry Flanagan and
Francisco Arvizu, who brought Ken
nedy over eighty miles of rough road
