Memorial Fop Roosevelt.
By an unanimous vote the com
mittee undertook to sponsor a per
manent Roosevelt memorial. The
resolution passed provides that the
Chairman of the Republican Na
tional Committee shall appoint a na
tionwide committee for this purpose
made up of members of he com
mittee or otherwise, who will act
with Col. William Boyce Thompson
of New York, who has been designa
ted as chairman of the special com
mittee, In developing and ' carrying
out the idea. It is understood to be
the purpose of the chairman of the
National Committee to appoint this
special committee at a very early
date, and It will probably be com
posed of a large number of well
known men and women representing
the entire country Neither the na
ture nor the extent of the memorial
will be determined until' the special
committee is appointed and has
given thought to the matter, but it
was the general impression of' the
meeting in Chicago that it should be
of a nature calculated to encourage
the advancement of the Roosevelt
ideals and the perpetuity of the
broad principles of the Americanism
and national welfare to which he de
voted his life. It Is the desire of the
Republican National Committee that
citizens everywhere freely make sug
gestions in this regard, addressing
their communications to Col. William
Boyce Thompson, 1 Madison avenue,
New York, or to the Republican Na
tional Committee.
The afternoon session of the Com
mittee was open to the public and
took the form of a Roosevelt memor
ial meeting. Committeeman King
of Connecticut, presented his report
of the Committee on Resolutions:
1 "The Republican party mourns
the passing of Theodore Roosevelt.
"In an hour of difficulty and
danger, he has fallen like a warrior
in battle, leaving a place in national
and international leadership which
I cannot be filled.
"The truest tribute It Is possible
j to pay to his memory Is in the pledge
that his party, the Republican party,
shall remain true to the ideals of
, Americanism and of special advance

j ever be linked and for which
throughout his useful career he

"I'nder the leadership of Abraham
Lincoln, the Republican party proved
its loyalty to the nation when
charged with the full responsibility
of government In a supreme crisis
in the life of the Republic.
"Under the leadership of Theo
dore Roosevelt, the Republican party
In a world crisis, proved that as a
party out of power it could rise to
the same high level of devoted ser
vice and by its patriotic course, in
sure complete national unity In sup
port of the country's cause.
"Above all others, as the Euro
pean war carpe on, his virile voice
was heard arousing Americans to a
sense of their duty and their peril
and to the imperative necessity of
subordinating every other considera
tion in both public and, private life
to the one purpose of achieving by
victory a just and enduring peace.

"With all his limitless energy and

and human sympathies, and his re
markable range ef personal attain
ments the quality in Theodore
Roosevelt which most enobles a life

that like his great prototypes in the
presidency, Washington and Lin
coln, he was ready to lay his all, his
own life and the lives of those dearer
to him, upon the altar of self
sacrifice. All he had to give he gave
to his country.
"His gospel of Americanism is to
day the heritage of his countrymen.
His message to all patriots could he

"Thereforein the spirit of Wash

the Republican party will go for
ward ever forward that the cause
of liberty, fraternity and American
nationality may be advanced and

people, for the people, may not per

The motion to adopt the memorial
was seconded in impressive speeches
by the representatives of all the
states present and, upon being car
ried by a rising vote, it was further
ordered that the memorial be en
grossed and presented to Mrs.
Roosevelt.
Memorial Day, February 0.

meeting that a day be get apart

of the life and deeds of Col. Roose
velt. This date has been fixed as
February 9. The exercises are to be
non pijrtisan In their character and

In executive session, on motion
of Committeeman Hynicka, of Ohio,

out the plans he had outlined in his
report for the advancement of the
Republican party in the nation and
was authorized to name an Ex
ecutive Committee and such other
committees as he might deem nec
essary, at such times as in his judg
ment he might deem advisable, and
with such powers as might be in
dicated. The following resolution was un
animously adopted:
"The Republican National Com
mittee iu meeting assembled lit
Chicago, January 10th, reiterates Its
belief in the necessity for the en
franchisement of the womeu ot
America, and therefore calls upon
tho United States Senate for the im
mediate passage of the Federal
suffrage amendment, and further
calls upon all Republican legisla
tures to stand ready to ratify the
amendment' when presented."
The Spirit of New Knuland.
t
President Eliot of Harvrrd told
this story recently at the inaugura
tion of the now president of Smith
college, William Allen Neilson:
"The Levina Hoar scholarship for
the town of Lincoln (Mass.) is the
gift of an aged woman, the last ot
her generation, who died last .winter,
surviving but a few years a sister who
had been her companion through a
long, frugal, laborious, and inestim
able life. The sisters had received
from their father many years ago, the
modest Inheritance of J 2,000. When
Levina Hoar died, leaving $4,500, her
whole property except a few memen
. tos of affection to near relatives, to
Harvard college, wherewith to maln
I .aiu a scholarship which should by
: preference be given to students from
the town where she had spent all
I her days. This Is the fruit of plain
living and high thinking. There
i shine the virtues by which our
country has been created, by which
It must be redeemed industry,
soberness, frugality, public spirit, and
the love of home, of learning, and of
honor."
This Is, or was, the spirit of New
England, which was built of Harvard
and Yale, Amherst and Williams,
Dartmouth, Bowdoln, Mlddlebury,
Wtleyan, Smith and Wellesley, and
in bo doing has spread enlightenment
and the love of liberty throughout
the land. Private gifts for public
purposes that Is tne New England
spirit and where It is found, the
Commonwealth prospers.
And why should not Whitman
college receive similar legacies? The
people of the Pacific Northwest are
no less public spirited and generous.
Walla Walla Bulletin.
Following the tributes to Col.
Roosevelt, the gathering was ad
dressed by Governors Burnqulst, of
Minnesota, Beeckman, of Rhode
Island and Harding, of Iowa; Presi
dent William Shanklin, of Wesleyan
University, Mtfdleton, Conn.; Con
gressman Royal Johnson, of South
Dakota, who had just returned from
France and still wore his khaki
uniform; Mrs. Margaret Hill Mc
Carter of Kansas; Miss Mary Garrett
Hay, of New York; Victor Rose
water, publisher Omaha Bee, and
former Republican National Chair
man, and Newton W. Gilbert, for
mer Governor of the Philippines,
Governor Burnquist made an espe
cially impassioned speech denounc
ing the growth of Bolshevism in
this country. He gave two quota
tions which made a deep Impression
upon the meeting. One was from
Lincoln :
"In democracy, when a majority
rule by the ballot through the form
of law, these physical rebellions and
bloody' disturbances are radically
wrong, unconstitutional, and are
treason.
"Property is desirable. It is
positive good in the world. That
some should be rich shows that
others may become rich, and hence
it is a great encouragement to enter-
1 prise. Let not him that is homeless
pull down the house of another, but
let him work diligently and build
one for himself. Thus, by example,
: assure him that his own shall ba
safe from violence when built."
The other was. from Roosevelt,
made in a speech seconding the nom
ination of McKinley:
l(T 11. 1 i. .1 . , Pi I
in me long run uie mriu, in-;
dustry, energy, and capacity of the
individual must always remain the
chief factors in his success. By un
wise or dishonest legtslalion or ad
ministration on the part of national
authorities all these qualities in the
individual can he nullified, but wise
legislation and upright administra
tion will give them free scope."
True Republican Principles,
Governor BeecKman talked along
the same lines and said the declara
tions and doctorines of Lincoln and
Roosevelt combined to form the
principles for which the Republican
party stood and for which it would
wage its next campaign.
The committee on resolutions also
presented a tribute to the late
Charles Warren Fairbanks and reso-'
