John Fillmore, great-grandfather OF
Millard Fillmore, the thirteenth presi-
dent Of the United States. was pi-
rate. though he was pirate in spite
OF himself. The story begins with the
first quarter OF the eighteenth century,
when the freebooters. Bluebeard. Low
and Phillips. swept the Atlantic coast
from Jamaica 10 Newfoundland. Phil
Tins captured the Dolphin OF Cape Ann,
a vessel commanded by Andrew
Harden.
Harden discovered among the
pirates crew two young men, Joln
FILLMORE and Edward Cheesman,
whom Phillips had captured anc
made pirates against their VIII.
They had determined either to es-
cape from the pirates clutches or
TO capture his, vessel and bring him
and his crew to justice. They fixed
an appointed -Four for making the
attempt at escape. after reaching
an agreement with Harden.
The signal was given when only
three were on deck. one of whom
was Phillips. One of the men was
thrown overheard, and the other two
were killed. This was done while the
crew was below in the hold OF the
ship. The captors then sprang INTO
the hold and placed the rest OF the
crew IN chains, steered the vessei
for Boston, and arrived there May .
1924. Two of the pirates were hanged
while Fillmore, Cheesman and his con-
federates were acquitted.

Prisoners in Famous Tower.

Not everybody can boast of having
been imprisoned in the Tower of Lon

people having been there and feeling a
good deal less amused than did a par
~ of sight-seers who found them
selves locked in the tower. While
visitors were inspecting the armories
and vaults in the White tower, the gar
rison was suddenly aroused by the
ringing of the alarm bells. which i'm
Tpediately resulted in the barring ard
lbotting of gates and doors. so that no
egress was possible. 1t is supposed
that. in connection with the repairs
going on. a workman unintentionaily
touched a wire attached TO the alarrl

The discussion of national politics

may conclude that il is the best policy
to do so None of them are closely

be said that all seem to be re 6y to
vote for the man who may develop the
most strength when the delegates as

ton OF Mr. McAdoo. while Mr.. John

softly near his tomb. Jefferson's
memory and his great deeds are
enshrined in the hearts OF a
posterity. The heroic courage OF
Jackson as soldier and statesman
inspires each new generation Of
American patriots. And the
tragic career Of Abraham Lincoln
gives hope to every struggling
boy in this fair land, and in his
honor we build monuments and
cities.
1t IS not my task to assign
to Woodrow Wilson the place
which he will occupy among the
great statesmen Of America and
the world. Impartial history will
perform that duty. No word OF
mine can add TO the fullness OF
his stature. No word or act OF
yours can detract from it. But
if ] may be permitted to indulge
in a prophecy, it is not difficult
TO foresee that those who now
snap at his heels like hungry
jackals will take their places
among the forgotten register OF
the Nations malcontents, while
he will stand with Washington,
Jefferson. Jackson, and Lincoln
Nas one of the few great figures
Of this era.
Let me in conclusion adopt as
q fitting motto for the Demo
cratic Party and its great Presi-
dent a sentence uttered by the
great Lincoln in his famous de-
bates with Douglas over the sen
atorship from Illinois. When
complaint was made that the
course he was pursuing would
lefeat him for that high office
ne uttered this immortal sen
tence: i am not bound to win
bat | am bound to be right In
being right, he lost the senator
ship, but he gained the Presi-
dency and premiership among
the worlds great statesmen. In
being right, Woodrow Wilson
has lost the support of a mar
row, partisan, and slothful Re
publican Congress, but he will
nave gained a prize infinitely
greater in value and in honor, q
high place among the meager list
# the worlds real statesmen and
benefactors."

A FALsETTO KEYNOTE"

The keynote" speech Of Sena-
tor Henry Cabot Lodge at the
Republican National Convention,
which was largely devoted to a
bitter and partisan attack on
President Wilson and his poll
cies. indicates the plane upon
which the Republican party pro-
poses to pitch the approaching
campaign.
AS pictured by Representative
Alben W. Barley, Democrat. OF
Kentucky. Democrats are pre-
pared to meet these personal as
! saults upon the President and
Representative Barley says the
country has but to remember
how Washington, Jefferson,
Jackson, Lincoln and other great
Presidents were maligned, in or
der to take such attacks at their
real worth.
Representative Barley recalls
that traducers of Lincoln went
even further than present-day
critics of President Wilson, Lin
coin, he says, was called the ba-
boon at the other end OF Penn
sylvania Avenue" his admins
tration was described as weak
and vacillating" he was accused
Of "treachery.' of having sacri-
feed the honor and dignity of
the nation, and was called by
some OF his critics an "Imbecile. "
But where today are the ira
ducerS OF Washington; where are
those who maligned Jefferson
where are the defamers of the
character of Old Hickory Jack
son; where are those who. with
leering look and sinister smile,
sought to besmirch the record of
Abraham Lincoln?" asks Repre-
sentative Barley. They lie in
unmarked and unhallowed
graves. They have all descended
into the stiffness of deep Oblivion
from which they will never
emerge"
Representative Barkley and
other Democrats believe that the
best and most convincing argu-
ment to such attacks is the fact
that many Presidents. and par
ticularly war Presidents" have
had their motives misunderstood
and maligned in their day. and
that history has given imperish-
ability to their names.
Further along this line, Repre-
sentative Barley says:
The figure of Washington
grows more imposing as the
years so by, and each year pill
grims by the thousands tread
