ALL ARE PATRIOTS.
HE printed list of the names of
T* the dead and wounded who
i. fought at "Vera Cruz under
Fletcher suggest many things, not the
least significant being the influence on
nomencalture of the Immigration that
has made this land the great melting
pot from which will emerge a few gen
erations hence the newer and more
virile American race that must work
out the great social, industrial, eco
nomic and other problems of the
world's future.
Among the names are many that
suggest the America of the first Mex
ican war and before. Robert E. Lee.
namesake of the Illustrious American
of English ancestry who landed at
Vera Crux with Scott as a Colonel and
later commanded the army of North
ern Virginia for the Confederacy with
such brilliancy that he has come down
to those of this generation as one of
the greatest warriors of his race, was
among the wounded. With his name
in. the list of the casualties appear
those of Watson. Morton, Taylor. Lane,
Smith, Preston, Johnston, and others
that call to mind the Anglo-Saxon be
ginning of the Nation.
The Scotts, closely affiliated with
the English and others in the estab
lishment of early civilization on the
American continent, and like their
Irish klnfolk always ready for a frol
ic. or a fight, are represented among
the Vera Crux victims by Cameron.
McMUlln and McCloy.
Then comes a list of names that
likewise may suggest a remote ances
try of Norman French or Hugenots,
who were prominent In earlier Ameri
can times?or perhaps they are of a
later Canadian French origin, as is
the case with so many Americans of
today?as. for instance, Gilbert. Poin
sett.- De Lowry, Bennett and Jordan.
De Fabbio's name probably came from
Southern France, or Corsica ? which
gavp us the greatest of all war cap
tains?or, possibly, Sunny Italy.
The first man killed was Haggerty.
and of his race there are many on the
list, as, in fact, there have been in
nearly every battle and skirmish into
which Americans have followed Old
Glory from the Revolutionary war un
til, the present. Among those killed
or wounded with Haggerty were Fitz
gerald, Boyle, Hughes, Blaney, Leahy
and others. He is a peculiar Irishman
who cannot see a harp in the Stars and
Stripes.
Another race, whose nationality
like that of Hibernla's, has been sub
merged and which, also like Hibernla's,
J
has given every generation of Amer
icans patriotic citizens, was represent
ed at Vera Cruz, as witness the Polish
names of Nagorowskl and Ponkowski
with those of the wounded.
Among the names of those whose bod
ies were pierced with Mexican bul
lets are those of that tenacious race
that wandered longer than any modern
people without flag to fight for, but
which now numbers its patriotic
Americans in seven figures. Dead or
wounded Frollchstoin, Katzenberger
and Schwart testify that peace-loving
Hebrews are as ready to die for their
country as tho Anglo-Saxons who first
settled It.
Schumaker and Schmidt and Fisch
er gave their blood as evidence of the
continued loyalty of the German
Americans, whose race contributed the
second of the great immigration
movements Into the United States, and
which has not ceased giving sons
and daughters to enrich our common
country.
Jansen, Peterson and Brant suggest
the later arriving, but none the less
patriotic on that account, Scandinav
ian race, which is doing so much to
ward building up the West.
A still younger race to add Its
thousands to our teeming millions is
represented by the Slavonic names of
Kwapick and Divorick.
Vatloog?probably misprinted?may
be a representative of the race which
gave us the Knickerbockers.
At the very end of the list are
names which take us back to the be
gining again. Percy suggests May
fair, and Gisburne the England of
cross-bow and war-club which resist
ed the Roman invasion.
However, no mater the derivation of
these men or the names they bore or
bear .every one of them has given the
last measure of testimony to the fact
that he was or is an American patriot.
A Puget Sound butter producer says
the new tariff law has cost him $7,000
in the last six months because it op
ened the door for New Zealand compe
tition. Exactly what the law was in
tended to do. The new tariff law was
offered as a measure that would re
store competition, and. in the end, re
duce the cost of living.
The busy man is rarely a pessi
mist and he hasn't time to "knock."
Juneau is not the only town where
they have to postpone a baseball game
on account of rain. There was but
one game in the National League Sat
urday, and all the other big leagues
postponed one or more games each.
