Arguments have come" said Mr.
Emery, many of them clothed in
subtle forms. but a clearer insight and
penetration of their purpose to weaken
the fabric of our movement has shown
us their error. Our experiences have
taught US that we must be constantly

Senator's and Representatives
From State Protest Against
Abandonment.

washington, ID. u, June D.
Senators and Representatives from
Maine vigorously protested to-day
against the proposed abandonment of
historic Maine forts along the coast.
The editorial in THE NEW YORK HERALD
to-day calling attention to the recon-
mendation of Secretary Of War Weeks
to give up the forts and advocating their
preservation as historic memorials, II
for no other reason. was specially COM
mended by both Senators and several
Maine Representatives of the House.
THE NEW YORK HERALD has done a
gracious and patriotic thing in calling
attention to this matter" Senator Hale
said. "It expresses exactly what ] feel
about the matter and / hope 1t may be
instrumental in bringing about a change
of policy In the War Department.
have urged the Secretary of War to give
further consideration to hts recommen-
cation. for | firmly believe these forts
ought to be preserved both for defensive
purposes and for sentimental reasons"
Senator Fernald said Failure to
appropriate for preserving and main
tanning the old Maine forts in my Judg-
ment would be a great mistake, not only
from a military but from a sentimental
and patriotic viewpoint. They are a
part of our national defence and they
are an integral element In the great
chapters of American history; for both
reasons. 1t seems to me they should not
be neglected by the Government.
II have read the editorial in THE
New YORK HERALD of to-day with deep
sa tisfaction and the paper Is to be con-
graduated upon the stand it has taken"
The editorial in THE NEW YORK
HERALD to-day was most timely" said
Representative White (Maine). THE
Federal Government should not allow
these historic forts to be abandoned and
to decay. They were and still are TO
some extent part Of the national defence,
but their connection with the early
chapters Of American history merits
their continuance"
