State has as much interest as
that county. The theory is put forward,
by Manistee, that the State should pay the
expense. Attorney General May, how
ever, has written q letter, In which he
states tlat il is no part of the duty Of the
State to prosecute the case, and that what
ever expense is incurred must he borus ex-
clusively ',y Alanistee County. II Manistce
refuses 10 bear any further expense in the
case, the prosecution will be, practically,

Resistance relatively In ths Pm

II renaissance relatively 10 the Prus-
sian power of aubjugation- Arms
and artillery are pouring IN on overy side,
and The people, who At first could not he
reused 10 the spirit Of patriotism, now need
10 be restrained and guided rather than
excited. The troops arc raw, bnt improv-
ing and France is only suffering the iucon-
venionees incident to nation which has
been taught to rely upon its standing
army, and which ia suddenly aroused to
Tho dismal fact that its army was but one
fifth az large as it had been led to believe,
and what there was of it has been captured
OF destroyed.
The military movements Of France seem
weak, but it must not be forgotten that, in
uearly all cases, their numbers harc been
sufficiently disproportionate to those of
The Germans to account for their failure.
Indeed, it is not until recently that the
numerical superiority Of the Germans,
from the first, has been fully appreciated.
It is certain that the power of Paris for
resistance has already outlastcd the early
expectations OF the besiegers, md seems
likely to continue now until early spring.
If, during this period, central, southern
and western France press their enlist
ments, or, if need be, their conscripsioas,
vigorously, it is quite certain that the
Intent reserves of France in men arc
greater than those of Germany. Prussia
n. the outset put in the field all her able
bodied single men by what was equivalent
to general daft. More recently sho has
drafted her married men within tho fight
ing age, and has been resisted with deadly
bitterness in the riots at Berlin. Bat as
yet France has not even enacted general
call upon all her able-bodied single men,
Int seems to rely on volunteering merely.
When the recruits thus obtained arc snth-
ciently disciplined to enforce q
draft, she will do 80, unless
the war is sooner terminated.
Thus far the Germans have had full benefit
of the elan, spring and dash which man.
kind have been in tho habit Of ascribing to
tue French. The French, meanwhile,
have shown the stolidity and s1uggishness
Of Prrssians. The fact proves that the
mode in which either Of two raoeB will
fight depends less on race than prepare
lion. The French are being whipped
during their Preparations. One after
another their Generals are being
sbe1ved as failures. But they lave
not yet met with more numer-
ous rercrses, nor have they lost or
aisgraced more Generals, than we did dur
ing the first two years of our war. They
have not yet developed speace-at-any-
price party" but apparently grow n,ors
dogged and determined with every defeat.
Nothing is more sure than that if this
state OF affairs continues until the
military resources of the French get
fairly into the field and well
ofllcered and organized, the Successes
OF the Germans must wane. The dragons
teeth which they hare sown on their way
TO Paris will spring up in a harvest OF
armed men, and their campaign, since the
refusal Of tho terms Of peace offered them
by FavTe, will have gained them nothing
The continuance OF German SUCCESS still
depends on the celebrity of movements
which it becomes daily moro difficult to
mike with celerity.
