MEMORIAL FOR THE TITANIC VICTIMS ANNOUNCEMENT comes to us from tbo capital city that an effort will bo mnuo to get jon ptorq tn nnnronrlato a sum. annroxl mating $200,000, to bo added to n similar sum of monoy ralsod nt largo throughout tho nation, In order that a hiomorial Bbnit may do orectou in mombry of tho horolc conduct of MnJ.

Whllo" wo! are as yet uncortnln as to whether this ston will bo conBum- matod as nlanncd, yet wo cannot forego a word as to tho unfairness nmi iiRnlessncsa of such a momorlal. In tho first plnco wo might ask, why commomorato tho heroism of Mnjor Butt moro than countless others wno wnnt down with tho Ill-starred flhlp, with that bravery and Intrepidity that mark tho true soldier. If reports bo true, there woro many w'ho might bo worthy of n similar momorlal, and why Rlnglo out ono becauso ho hap poned to belong to tho army nnd was a closo friend of tho Prosldont? Wo would Hko to soo nil thoso bravo men, nnd women too, who faced doath bo unflinchingly, bo given n silltablo momorlal so that futuro gen erations may know that tho tradi tions of tho sea woro kept In n spirit, ns well as In lottor. Then, ob to tho nature of tho mo morlal. It scorns ridiculous and ut terly usoless, from a practical point of vlow, to cxpond such n sum of monoy on a shaft, whon tho samo monoy could bo put Into a .memorial that would boneflt humanity. That Is what wo aro nil hero for, to holp others, nnd to erect a plcco of mar blo, whon a hospital or Bomo othor chnrltablo institution might stand In Its' nlnco. oxtondlng tho blessed holp of healing nnd comfort to hundreds who need, seems tho height ot rony, nn unworthy nloco of oxtravnganco. Wo alroady havo too mnny of thoso useless memorials In n world that is crying on nil sides for holp ot ono kind or another. Lot ua erect momorlnla that will do some real nracttcnl good. If thoso who aro thus commemorated could return nnd toll us what they think about It, they would say at onco that this Is tho kind of momorlal they would ronlly want. Tho cnsunl obsorvor doubtless novor stops to think, ns in muto ad miration, ho stnnds boforo thobe memorials of tho Ptolomlcs of Egypt, the Pyramids, Just what monumontR of usolessnoss thoy nro. Tho millions thnt woro probably spent In erecting them mluht furnish n pleasing spec taclo for tho globo-trottor. but thoy havo novor glvon, so far ns wo know, ono lota of holp nnd comfort to thoso who need.

Too utterly nbsurd Is this for snno consideration. For think of tho ultl ninto prlco to ho paid by thoso who fallod to havo tho llfobonts, as tho captain brnvo who Buffers misfor tune must forfolt his command nnd ns tho "hoodoo" ship muBt ho desti tute of paBHOiiRorfl. slnco mon will not tempt Provldonco In unlucky hulls, so tho company thnt loses mul titudes of souls must honcoforth sco tl o voyaging world turn fearfuli away from Its vessols.
