On that day we honored, with applause, the thinning ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic as it wended its way through the streets and highways ail over this great land to pay lgnor to those who fought and died that the Uniqn might be saved. Eulogies were delivered in homage to Lincoln, the commander-in-chief of that great army of "61. All this was as it should be. 1 wonder, however, if apy of those old veterans recalied, as they marched along amid the plaudits of the throngs, how only a few weeks 40 they were denied a request they had made for a new honor to be paid to Lincoln, namely, that the name of ||| Mount Rainier, on’ the northwestern — il | coast of the country, should have its name changed to Mount Lincoln, a request fitting and appropriate, and backed by many outside of their own organization. What could be more beautiful than to have Mougt Washington guarding the shores of the Atlantic and Mount Lincoln guarding the shores of the Pacific: the one an eternal monument to the man who denied the right of government to oppress man, and the other an everlasting memorial to the man who denied the right of man to oppress his fellow man. Two me- morials to the two corner stones of American ideals. The name Mount Rainier is not ac- ceptable to many who dwell under the shadow of the mountain. Mount Takoma was suggested as a change years @go, but that name has never met with large favor because it was localizing, as it were. a great moun- tain that belongs, in fact, to the whole country. ~ The name Mount Lincoln nationalizes the mountain at once. A favorite goal of the tourist already, because of its grandeur, it would become, as Mount Lincoln, & shrine and @ mecca. Rising abruptly i | and alone from the surrounding plain. Il { it typifies, in a remarkable degree. i | the ‘grandeur of Lincoln, rising ab- ruptly from the log cabin to the White House, there to hold aloft ideals that should rise far above the previous thoughts of the majority pf mankind. It seems to me that a movement should be started all over the country 10 ask the National Geographic Board to reverse its decision against the change of the name to Mount Lincoin and grant the beautiful and fitting request of the old soldiers, and that next Memorial day should be named for the time of the formal christen- ing of the great mountain of the northwest as Mount Lincoln. I would suggest that all who favor this idea communi Judge James H Wash., who cro: recently at the young, to bear, te at once with hase. Cashmere, the continent of ninety vears official representa- tive, the reque f his fellow com- rades of the Grand Army of the Republic_to the National Geographic Board. Though presented in behalf of 200,000 civil war veterans and in- dorsed by 200.000 members of the Women's Relief Corps: supported by the members of many branches of the American Legion and by some of the high officers of the Regular Army. and desired by thousands of indi- vidual citizens all over the land, this request was turned down. Should not that decision be reversed? HARRIET E. CHACE OBREGON MAY DEPORT U. S. MURDER SUSPECTS MEXICO CITY, June 5.—Carlos Co- letti and Dominic Benigno, wanted by the police of Cleveland, Ohio, in con- }J nection with a murder there, will be deported to the United States if it can be proved they are anarchists, it was declared last night by the secretary of foreign relations. Representations asking for their re- turn have been made by the American charge d'affaires here, but in view of the fact that diplomatic relat not exist between the United and Mexico. it is said that extradition is impossible. If the two men are re- turned to the United States. it will be at the personal order of President Obregon as evidence of his cordiality and his desire to punish radicals. The two men were captured on June 2'in a downtown hotel by two Amer- jcan detectives, who had arrived here only a few hours before from Guada- lajara.
