"Swretary Ianlel Is very unpopu lar" according to the view of certain ' critic of the roan EIOIIT PAGES j 'j.... . Tlie I niular1ty Of Itank-t. ho has brought about more or less of a new regime in the navy. If this is true the only. regret is that the country has been so long in se curing an unpopular secretary of the tiavy- The chief feature of rhe secre tary's policy has been his effort to bring about more democracy in his department. He has sought to confer upon the enlisted man the status of a human being. To this end he has opened up greater opportunities for advancement to the sailors and ma rines and he has curbed to some ex Unt the snobbery and aristocratic privileges of the naval officers. Am ong other things he bars the officers from having liquor aboard ship when the enlisted men are rigidly denied that privilege for very good reasons. Dofa the discipline and fighting spirit of the V. S. navy depend upon those in command having always at their disposal the means whereby they may ret drunk and perhaps in sult subordinates or strangers of for eign lands? The prompt capture of Vent Crux by our ships and the cap able manner In which Admiral Flet cher handled his job would indicate that th av has not been seriously crippled by the new policy. What we need is an efficient navy: whether the secretary Is popular is not of vital consequence. If the pres ent secretary has Incurred er.mities through his course- it is the best pos sible proof his policy was needed. Bo here's to Josephus Daniels, be he popular or not. though it is a safe guess that with 95 per cent of our sea fiichters he is the most highly re garded secretary we have had in years. What a peculiar world it is. Not deterred by the bad luck that befell our three Meacham train Info-tiiMiiv robbers many who were. or claim they were, pas wtigers on that train are now trying pu)l off a little stealing of their t'wn. They have put in claims that are undoubtedly padded In view of the officers and railroad officials. They ack for the return of twice as muc h money as was stolen. Very like ly sm f the claim" are filed by peo ple who w-re not aboard the train lit ail They ar elrni.ly trying to do a I ml- robbing on a safe basis. Here for sure Is the psychology of crime eerr.lifled In a new way. For more reason thsn one it Is :i M'lrndid thing the ihttuiuU'jua is guaratiU-ed for WHl Worth While, another season. It is true the hautauiua this car was not as good A It wight have !een from a crowd drawing standpoint. It may never draw any Immense throngs of people to the city. But the Chautauqua programs ar attended by and are appreciated by n element of people which this com munity may well afford to exert It alf to plase. They are people who oek entertainment that Is Instruc tive and elevating as welt as enjoy- rlils, They are people who wish to liwvr the mestmges brought by such mn as I Mr. Ureen and Vr. Ounsau I .ik iitul the other speakers f note vim were here last week. They sre "eop!s who Jmve an Interest In tntislc iu J liU-iature and cunnot f!r,J what they dire (n the ordinary theatrical predictions that come to the city. The chsutauqua is a good thing notj because It will make money for the town but b-oau!-e it will make peo ple more satisfied with life in this wction. It tends ti balance our com munity life and to give balance in the right direction. It will make this place more of an educational, social srid Intellectual centfr as well as a very Ihrtvlnc business center. Pendleton can aftord m give the rhautauqua a more thorough trial than was done this year. WVh more thorough preparation and more co- peration the chaiitauquo next year will be far more successful than the one laet eek.' "I am a republican but I have confidence in Tresiient Wilson and believe he is one of I'aith In Wibon. the treatest presi dents thi country has ever bad." This is a statement recentlv made by a visitor in the city and it is a statement that is made in various forms by almost every other man that i met with. In fact It is difficult to find a man. save among the few who are deep In the partisan groove that does not uphold the president. It is also easy to infer that tnese peo ple are ready to vote for Wilson foi a second term if he should be a can didate. Why shouldn't they. Not in 50 years has this country had a great leader who stormed as little and did as much for the country as has Presi dent Wilson. Never before In the lives of men now living has there been a president with such a grip on af fairs as is possessed by the man now in the White House: never- has there been a president with a clearer know ledge of what the country needs: never a president with higher purposes or with greater ability In getting his pur poses transformed into action.

Tresident Wilson has inaugurated steps to have the Lincoln highway so constructed and marked as to consti tute an obliteration of Mason and Dix on's line. In a strong letter to the Lincoln highway commission, he saysi that one of the desires of the nation U that this historic boundary shall be! forever made only a thing of memory. Already that end is practically ach ieved. In a geographical and historic Mtise, reference is often made to Ma.- son and lion's line. But the bitter ness, the recrimination and the pas sion that once informed the phrase are no longer noticeably present. j Fr It w ill require (a trained student ofi history to trace the exact process by which sectional prejudice north and I 5 soith has been lulled. The achieve- 1 1 nifiit has been gradual. Probably the g3 greatest influence has been, not as 5 currently thought, the increasing tol- SH erance of men on each side. The most practical agency hs been the inter- ss state railway, binding the two sections and disregarding traditions of hatred 3 and memories of friction. g No feuds on earth can survive the E pressure of human needs,, physical and mental needs, just as no feuds p can survive the element of propln- EES quity. The men who build railroads 3 between the north and the south; and 3j who developed the telephone and tele- El graph did wonders to lessen the sig- 5 nificance of Mason and Dixon's line. j Indeed, if one were inclined to be en- J tirely frank, the verdict would likely te that for a good many years sec- H tional prejudice were more imagi- H3 nary than real: more the figment of demagogues than the sentiment of peoples: more a habit of thought than a breathing actuality. Of course, friendly utterances had l3 a powerful effect in- cdystaiizing re- conciliation. The Spanish-American war. blending survivors of blue and 3 gray under the common flag, was an- jj other potent agency. Interchange of H visits by representative northerners I and southerners accelerated the pro cess. But it Is to be doubted If any of these factors were as controlling as the once influence of constant com- u. miai communication, meeting on the common ground of commerce and mutual interests. And that Mason and Dixon's line really is a very faint one Is testified by the fact that Americans now rare ly feel called on to assert that the war is over. The surest sign If unity Is the absence of talk about it. Atlanta Constitution. Tears have passed, but still I hear them. Mother's words, . "There, never mind!" Tears, Time seems only to en dear them To me as it flies I find: Mother's gone, but still I often Find myself where trouble's nigh. Half expecting her to soften It as in the years gone by.
