No man in the United States navy knows any better although all other naval officers perhaps know quite as n ell who was the real hero of San tiago than does Admiral Wlnfleld S, Schley, In the sense of knowing who it was that planned the tactics which won that battle and made the total des truction of Cevera's fleet possible. No man knows better who is entitled as commanding officer to the credit of that great victor)' than does this same Admiral Schley. No man in the United Stat"s navy could so effectually set tie the confusion In the country's mind on that proposition as Admiral Schley. Yet Schley has refused to speak the words which would have carried conviction to the layman mind; that would have settled all controversy long ago and given that disputed hon or where it belongs. Never among professional men of any class has a greater dishonor occurred than In this man Schley's refusal to speak the truth, coupled with the advantage he has sought to obtain over a brother of ficer through the superficial reason lng and emotion of the non-professional public mind. Many people think Schley was the real destroyer of Ce- vera s fleet because It was his good fortune to actively participate In that event, while Sampson, the man who conceived the plan and would have borne the odium of defeat, had it come, was absent in the line of duty elsewhere. Schley is a scoundrel, and every officer of the American navy knows it, and has admitted it to his intimates, over and over again, during the weary months that Sampson has silently endured the slights and ingratitude of his fellow countrymen. Captain Chadwlck at last has broken the bonds of fear or naval etiquette and blurted out the j truth. The marvel Is that he or any other man, among a class notud al most tbove all others on earth for the rigidity of its code of morals and Its unswerving honor at all times and under every circumstance, could have held his peace in the face of such a worng and Injustice for so long a time. All honor, nevertheless, to Captain 'Chadwlck for his courage and manli ness, belated though it is. Let it be hoped that the navy department will court-martial Captain Chadwlck, as It threatens to do; not because so brave and noble a man should or can be trong ones In speaking about Scott's Emulsion for children, you should not forget that it con tains lime and soda, just what the child must have to form strong bones and good teeth. It's this forming time you want to look after. Growing bodiei must have an easily diluted fat Just think how much of it there is in milk, as cream. sccirs emulsion U even more easily digested than cream. It's surprising how chil dren thrive when given it Don't keep the children living on (he edge of sickness all the time, f'aie them strong and rugged, plump and hearty.

That this will b Schley's ultimate late there can 1 no question; a fate he richly deserve Cap'.ain Chadwlck should receive th plaudit of every honest man for the "Insuroordlnalion" of speech w hich may precipitate such a consummation soon er than It might otherwise have na turally come. The democrats are said to be pre paring to make an Issue over the fail ure of the present congress to reduce the war taxes. Of course they know that the republican party can be de pended upon to reduce the income the government at the eurlitst momen it can safely and prjperly done, but if any capital can be made by pcisuad ing the people to the contrary, why that is a legitimate campaign weapon from a democratic standpoint. Tiie fact is, however, that the war taxes are likely to continue on the statute books for some time to come. In the first place, as Secretary Gage has show n, in spite of its present surplus, the government cannot afford to take any chances on the possible need of larg sums of money between the ad journment of this congress and the meeting of the next one. Then, too, the present method of raising revenue Is a common one In every other nation in time of peace as well as war. It may not turn out to be nearly so un popular among the people as the dem ocrats reckon on. There are many thinking people who advocate a re duction in customs duties rather than of internal taxes. Whenever the question conies up In congress the whole matter of customs and internal revenue taxes Is sure to be thrashed over, and the passing of a new law Is a task which will require a good deal of consideration and much time. For that reason, if for no other, it is quite im practicable to entertain the proposl tion of reducing war taxes at this ses sion. The republican party met the responsibility of settling up the af fairs succeeding the country's last great war, and it did it, not merely without any help from the democrats, but in spite of their opposition. In the light of past experience, there fore, the people are likely to look upon the republicans as competent to deal with any situation growing out of the little wars with Spain and in the Philippines, and the democrats will net find the country ready or willing to swap horses while crossing that stream. The report on the naval appropria tion bill made by Representative Fobs, of Illinois, acting chairman of the naval committee, contains one piece of information that will gratify every patriotic American. Ii is that S8 per cent of the officers and seamen in the American navy are American citizens, and that of the 12 per cent that are not American citizens, three-fourths have taken out their first papers. Ninety-one per cent of the appren tices are native-born Americans. Sev enteen years ago, Congressman Foss shows, the United States stood twen tleth on the list of naval powers. Now we are fourth, Great Britain being first, France second, and Russia third, with Germany a very good fifth. Since 1S83 the L'nltod States has expended almost a hundred million dollars on new ships for Its navy- The exact um is $S,523,5U.5, while the vessels now unjer construction will cost JC2, 570,610.23. Ref-rring to Admiral Dewey's presi dential aspirations, ex-Senator John J. Ingalls says: "'It is unfortunate for the fame of Dewy that he did not remain Indefinitely at Manila. The perspective was greatly to his advan tage, and distance lent enchantment to the view. He was a hero at Manila, but ever since he landed in New York the bran and sawduut has been run-" ning out of him. Everything lie has said and done hag sunk him steadily in public estimation. All his utter ances have been cheap, weak and silly, and his conduct has been feeble and vacillating to the edge of imbecility. Somebody has buncoed the admiral. His candidacy Is ridiculous. His ig norance of politics and public Issues and public duties Is pathetic. Since Hancock's announ'sement in the Gar field campaign that the tariff was a local question, which he had heard mentioned at Norrlstown, Pa., there ba been nothing so absurd as Dew- i , p.

The presentation of his name would provoke inextln gulshable hiutrht-'r and derlaun. What the admiral needs above everything else at this time is a course of Instruc tion In the noble art of taciturnity." A HINT FOR THE SCHOOL DIREC TORS OF ASTORIA. It would certainly seem as If the pub lie schools In the city of Washington should b among the best In the coun try, but an Investigation undertaken by a sub-committee on the District of Columbia, of which Senator Stewart of Nevada, is chairman, would Indicate vune great and fundamental error In the school system there. Senator Mew art nacl maintained that some thing was radically wrong in the Washington school system. His con tention was bitterly denied by those responsible for the schools. They maintained that "the system of teach ing was th? one best adapted to train the minds of the children and youth, to teach them to think and to express themselves clearly." It was held that "spelling was learned best Incidental- ly. and not by the use of the spelling book; that arithmetic was to be ac quired best by a method that elimin ates the drudgery, and that oral teach ing of grammar Is superior to the use of the text book." The results of the investigation certainly seem to belie the arguments made in behalf of the system In vogue In Washington. Tar enta complained, as did employers, that the children In Washington are not able to use correctly the English language and are not fitted to do sim ple examples la arithmetic, and not fit ted to become office boys and girls. It was thought desirable to test the work done In the first eight tcrades. preparatory to the high school, so it was decided to examine pupils in the first year of the high school, before which the "foundations of knowledge In English, American history, spelling and arithmetic should have been laid." It was supposed, too, that before en tering the high schools pupils would have a very sensible knowledge of the form of the American government, In w hich they were instructed. To ascer tain the knowledge, two examination paper were prepared by the chief ex aminer of the civil service commis sion, and these were submitted to the school directors to see if they were regarded as fair. One examination was In arithmetic and the other In history. In this way spelling, writing and grammar, with facility of expres sion, could also be tested. The result was lamentable, betray ing gross ignorance on the part of the great majority of the pupils, whose general average was only 58 per cent. Many of the answers are very amus ing, of course, but they are also pa thetic, and certainly justify some great change In the present methods of teaching. There is a hint here for the directors f Astoria's schools and those of other Oregon towns. Let them send for the full particulars of this Washington ex periment. Some things can be learned or the benefit of the trust they have n hand, and more, perhaps, than they ave any Idea of at this time.
