Makes His Displays in Connection With Arlington Memorial Amphiteater. Washington, May 22.?Republican writers here are telling their papers that the chance of "breaking the solid South" in the coming presidential campaign is really good, and they nmntins" with s:lee to the action of the Georgia Democratic state convention, which refused to indorse the Wilson administration or the league of nation^. One of these impulsive prognosticators was holding forth orally the other day when he was brought to a dead standstill by a listener who interrupted to say: "Look here, B , I don't know how far you are right or wrong in assuming that the south might break on league of nations or the perpetuation of what you call 'Wilsonism,' but I can tell you that any such chance which has existed is pretty thoroughly destroyed if you can't squelch your, 'bloody-shirt wavers' like Congressman Madden, of Illinois. Every time Madden attacks the heroes of the 'Lost Cause'?and he seems to be doing this every day or two now?the solidity of the south is strengthened and insured." The comment took so much of the "pep" out of the dissertion on the breaking of the solid south that the original speaker changed the subject. Arlington Memorial Affair. Representative Martin Madden, of Illinois, is a member of the Republican steering committee of the House. This committee has been character3 ~ + "milUnnotro'o " lSeU ilb '& IILIIS? iiiuiiuuaii ^ o v/aum, as three or four of its five members are reputed to be exceedingly wealthy. Madden has for years made a specialty of attacking the south. His present activity is apropos of the names of military heroes inscribed on the Memorial Amphiteater at Arlington, Va., the former home of the Lee family of Virginia just across the Potomac from Washington, a beautiful memorial amphitheater. The amphitheater* was built under act of Congress, which placed the supervision of the structure's completino in the hands of a commission composed of the Secretaries of War and ^he Navy, Superintendent Elliott Woods, of the Capitol biulding and grounds; Col. John McElroy, representing the G. A. R.; Capt. Fred Beall, representing the United Confederate Veterans; Capt. Charles Newton, the Spanish War Veterans, and Col. C. S. Ridley, U. S. A., executive officer. It was held by the commission that under the statute governing the subject the names of Confederate heroes could not be inscribed on the memorial. The ruling has caused a great deal of feeling among Southerners, and some of them in Congress have taken occasion to criticize the omission of the names of Lee, Jaskson and other great Confederate chieftains. When T? i i : x xi ne uas ueeii present oil mese occasions, Madden has interrupted to ask the speakers if they believed that men who had been "traitors to their country" ought to be honored on a memorial intended for those who died in their country's defense. Pandemonium has followed this ugly talk, and words which have not appeared in the Congressional Record have been freely applied. Better Xo Names at All. In the meanwhile there is pending in each branch of Congress a joint resolution to authorize the inclusion of the names of Confederate heroes among the Arlington inscription, but it has been impossible to get these resolutions reported from the committee to which they have been referred. In the House case the resolution was offered by Gen. Sherwood, an Ohio Democrat, who is a distinguished federal veteran, but the chairman of the library committee, Representative Gould, of New York, says that his committee will not be able to report on the matter before the coming recess of Congress. Mr. Gould per sonally expresses the opinion j that there should not have been any names at all on the Arlington Memorial, and in that case he may be right. At each side of the stage at the Arlington Amphitheater * is a large pier. On these piers, in letters five and a half inches high, are the names of twenty-eight heroes of the war of the Revolution of 1812, the Mexican war, the civil war and the SpanishAmerican war. On the left-hand pier are the naval heroes and on the righthandler are the army heroes?four I I teen in each case?as follows: Jones, Truxtun, Preble. Hull, Decatur, Perry, Macdonough. Stewart, Farragut, Porter. Foote. Worden, Dewey, Sampson. Washington. Greene. Wayne, Jackson, Scott. Taylor, Grant, Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan. McClellan, Meade, Merritt. Shatter. Recently some one asked Senator Glass, of Virginia, what he thought about the omission of the names of great Confederate heroes from the Arlington list. "Well," said the Senator, with his characteristic drawl, "it recalls to my mind the reply of. a celebrated English statesman whose little grandson wanted to know why the grandfather's statute was not in Hyde Park. 'As to that I can't say,' replied the stateman, 'but I had much rather people would ask why my statute wasn't there than why it was there.'"'
