carried out, and that the total of recruits
levied last year did not amount to a mere
100000, as usual, but very nearly reached
the goodly figure of 10000, which is to
remain the normal number in future. As
the German soldier is liable to be called
out for a period of II years, this annual
extra OF 40, 1000 men will add nearly half
a million to the army, which is thus
raised to a wa footing Of 100000 com
batants and auxiIiaries. The increase OF
the rank and file necessitates a correspond
inc augmentation of the officers, and it IS
but natural that we should already hear
of three second Feutenants being in future
appointed for each company, instead OF
two, as heretofore. Estimating the mum
Der of German second lieutenants at a.
900 in a total Of 80, 900 officers, this shows
that there are something like 1000 more
required. Their salary, then, and that
potion OF the extra expenditure incurred In
raising the CONSUMPTION figure, which IS
not covered by the savings consequent
upon the reduction Of service, are still
further items of expenditure to be anticl-
pated in the future. It is probable that,
before voting the Bill, the House will IN
sist upon receiving a guarantee for the
permanent adoption Of the two years
service, aud that, even then, they will
restrict the operation of the new law
which the Government propose to enact
in perpctuity to a certain number Of years.
But with all these concessions the Mill
tary Budget remains SO formidable an item
of the national expenditure that the ne
cessity Of tightening the burden is sure
to influence the politics Of the Imperial
Government before long. For the present
it may suffice to add that seven Of the ~
German Corps d'ArmGe are already armed
with the Nauser rifle, and that the re-
mainder are expected to receive the new
weapon within a year and o half.

far enough that life is serious bust
ness after all that they owe some
thing to their children; to their coun-
try and to the cause Of truth and vir-
tue; and they will brush All Sin and
Bill Nye both aside, and send some man
to Congress who will fifty represent the
aroused conscience of the District.
In the mean time Bills candidacy is
a fountain of blessings. Hundreds OF
poor, impecunious, desperate publishers
of tax-lists have been lifted up out OF
the slough of despond; and they chirp
forth their lively carol of praise to
King, as the birds do, when the dark
night passes and the glorious panorama
of the morning is unrolled in golden
splendor over their heads. And from
bush to bush the sweet song rebounds,
and throat after throat catches it up,
until the whole air is alive with the re-
frain liking, King, King"
"And when the pie was done,
The birds began to sing,
And wasn't that dainty dish
To set before the King"

THE TRUTH LEAKING OUT.

We are glad to learn that Gen. Ed
gerton is not satisfied with the rates es-
tablished by the Board of Railroad
Commissioners Of which he is MEM
Der. The Red Wing Republican says
Another consideration inolines us. to the
opinion that the schedule rates are not too
low at all events. They were fixed by the
majority of the Commissioners, one Com
missioner having in the main advocated
lower rates. As that Commissioner is the
one who has given the longest and the most
thorough consideration both to the princi-
pies that underlie this question and to the
details that embarrass it, and undoubtedly
comprehends quite as clearly as the others
the demands Of the people and the rightfnl-
ness or wrongfulness of such demands, il is
to be presumed that if error has been made
in the details, it has been made in cutting
too little rather than too much.
It seems from this that Gen. Edger-
ton was voted down by Gov. Marshall
and Mr.. Randall, and that he wanted
lower rates than those established. If
this is true then the two additional
commissioners have not only added
largely to theexpcnditures Of the State,
but have actually been an injury to the
people. The State would have been
better off to have left the whole matter
in the hands of Edgerton.

The Mankato Union says that Geo.
l. Parsons, Grand Master of the State
Grange Of the Patrons Of Husbandry,
was in Mankato on Monday, bound for
the West, to see what condition mem
bers of the order are in, since the grass
hopper raid. He seems to be heartily
converted from his position Of non-po-
litical action by the Changers, and says
he has cut loose from the Republican
party. 1t is possible that Dunnell's
nomination had something to do with
severing the connection.
We hope the foregoing is true.
We will forgive W. N. Parsons all
he has ever said against ourself, pub
licly or privately, ten times over, if he
will only come out and help the people
in their sore distress; help them not in
his official, but in his individual capac-
ity. There is no remedy but the bal
lot box, and if there ever was = time
since the Republic was formed, when
that remedy was most needed, it is
now.
Personally, we have no enemies
Every man is our friend who stands by
the right; every man our enemy who
tramples upon it.

.'For once, Commodore
Vanderbilt, Col. Scott and
the Erie people were in
harmony; all agreeing that
the crisis was upon them,
and must be met; and, that
it was better to meet the
enemy at the West, than to
wait until he had advanced
into New York, Pennsylva-
MIA and the Eastern States.
What the plan Of the cam
paign is no one but them
selves knows; but if what
we hear whispered is only
half true, it cannot be long
before the order will be
given to move on the enc
my'S works."

A PROPER TOOL FOR TYRANrs.

They have got at Rochester an edi-
tor named Eaton. He is specimen oil
the kind of men who in all ages have
proven themselves the supple tools OF
despots.
The St. Paul Pioneer said the other
day:
One of the strongest evidences that the
Government is corrupt and is growing deS
potic, may be found III the warfare on the
independent press, inaugurated at the las
session OF Congress.
To which the Rochester Post, other
wise Eaton, replies:
s'The Infamous, defamatory and Ii
bellous character of the so-called ''in
dependent press, is one Of the strong
est evidences that such warfare
was demanded"
That is to say, Eaton is in favor Of
liberty of the press as long as the said
press agrees with his views of men and
things. But if it presumes to differ,
then it is infamous, defamatory and
libellous,' and warfare" to suppress
it, under color of law, is demanded.
This was Louis Napoleon's view Of
the Liberty of the Press.
Grant should appoint Eaton to a cen.
sorship Of the press, and compel the
opposition papers to submit their ad-
vance proofs to him for inspection and
correction. There would be no infa.
nous and libellous attacks on the Re-
publican party then and 40 man would
dare to say that Pomeroy was not an
angel and Bill King saint.
If ever anything in this world needed
to be a0iped out it is the dregs and rem
nants Of corruption and ignorance call.
ed the Republican party. Four years
more of such rule would turn the re.
public into a monarchy.

WHAT THE RAILROAD LAW HAS
DONE FOR Us.

In 1860 wheat was carried from Hast
ings to Lake Michigan for Il cents per
bushel.
In 1873, at, the beginning of the
season, it was carried for l6 cents per
bushel.
In 1873, after the crop began to
move, it was carried at 81 cents per
bushel.
In 1874 it started at 81 cents per
bushel, but under the force of competi-
ton it fell to Q cents per bushel.
The people demanded lower rates.
The Republican party passed a bogus
law by which two additional Railroad
Commissioners and their clerk and Sec
rotary were saddled on the State, at an
additional cost of about $4,000 per an
mum; and the people stood waiting
patiently to see the proposed reductions
made.
At last the mountain in labor brought
forth mouse.
The commissioners fix the rate on
the River road for the transportation
of 100 pounds Of wheat 13l miles. at
14S0 cents. At this rate for the whole
distance to the Lake IT WOULD AMOUNT
TO ABOUT q CENTS PER BusHEL.
That is to say the River road is car
rying wheat at 9 cents bushel, the
Republican party compel it to charge
81 cents.
