THE COMMERCIAL SPIRIT
There has been a request before the
authorities for some time for the use
ot the Washington monument as a
wireless telegraph station for the pur
pose of conducting experiments with
ships at sea and possibly across the
Atlantic ocean. The question of its
use for this purpose has apparently
been left to President Roosevelt to
decide.
The desire to equip wireless stations
whereby better communication can be
had with different parts of the coun- j
trv, with vessels on the ocean and with I
" I
foreign countries is in every respect a
laudable one. But it would seem that
as a nation we might tind a way to do
this without going so fur as to turn a
monument in memory of the Father of
His Country iuto a means for gratify
ing curiosity, or for contributing to
the commercial spirit. The govern
ment is perfectly able to trect wireless
stations for the purpose of testing the
virtues of tlie Marconi system. If the
matter is in the hands of private indi
viduals, let them erect their own sta
tions. A monument to the dead par
takes of the character of a tomb or
mausoleum and should be kept sacred
to that for which it was erected.
There has never been any too much
reverence or even respect shown by
this country to the memory of her il
lustrious dead. It has rather been the j
tendency in some quarters to belittle
them by picking out the little faults
and indiscretions which they may once
have committed. It is not so in some
of the older countries. The attention
of the traveler in Germany, for in
stance, is frequently attracted to tab
lets and monuments placed to mark
the spot which some great man once
graced by his presence. Even so lit
tle an incident as the fact that Goethe
.once sat down upon a bench in the
garden of the Heidelberg castle and
jotted down a short poem is recorded
by a monument stating in letters
in stone that here Goethe once
Sat thinking and writing.
Too much respect cannot be given
to the noble qualities of a nation s
great men, and the, commercial spirit
should never be allowed to mar them
or cause us to forget their greatness,
