The Distinction Between AN Army
md n Police Force.


and q Police Force.
To preceiye clearly the difference be-
tween an army and police force, it
may be well to see what war Is, look.
ing at it through the eyes OF the pest
and most eminent French writer on
morals, now living, a man who con-
demns dueling, although he lives in a
society that applauds it. In elements
of Morals" p. 60, 81, edition OF 1884,
Paul Jannet writes, "War is the most
serio11s and the most solemn exception
to the law which forbids homicide.
Not only does it permit homicide, but
it commands it. The means thereto are
prepared in public, the art of practic-
ing them is a branch of education, and
it is glorious to destroy as many enc
mics as possible" -.
Here is direct and unequivocal
statement of the purpose of an army.
Its very object is homicide, killing
men !; it not only does this incidentally
but by command. Officers and soldiers
are brought together, educated, drilled
to implicit obedience and to common
action, and supplied with weapons OF
all sorts, for attaining the highest sue
cess in killing men and it Is their glo-
ry to kill as many men as possible, so
long as an opposing force.
On the contrary, the very end for
which police force exists, is the pro-
lection Of the rights of property, per
son and life. The arrest Of q criminal
is an act of bsnevolence to him, and to
the community. It stops his career OF
violence or other wrong doing against
peaceful citizens it subjects him to de-
iberate and just trial, it brings him to
deserved punishment by fine or imPrl-
sonment, or both. 1t intensifies his
sense of guilt: it gives him the opPor-
tunity to amend it; it deters others
from like courses. Even though arm
ed with deadly weapons, aconstable or
police officer is forbidden to use them
except under extreme circumstances,
and then not with intent to kill, but to
disable an offender. 1t is disgrace To
q policeman to kill one whom he Is
endeavoring to arrest. He is liable to
prosecution for it, and unless urgent
necessity for the act is shown, he issub-
iected to imprisonment for it. More
over, the offender knows that in at
tacking an officer he is resisting the
ordinance of God, as represented by
the law and that his attempt on the
life of the officer is absolutely without
moral excuse.
Officers and men of the regular army
are very unwilling to perform police OF
constable duty, they object that it If
not their business lin this they ars
right according to Jannet, and if oblig
ed to take part, devolve it upon tht
scouts and irregulars, if they may
They deem their business war, homici
de, not arresting horse thieves or mur
derers. A man of peace, therefore
may serve on a police force when h'
would be quite unwilling to be trained
and armed for the very object of beini
effective, in destroying men-Ih

MOnkey-Parrot.

The Presbyterian church last evening
was the scene of unusual and unseemly
strife, occasioned, it would seem by the i'm
portation Of political preacher by the
name Of Barton, who was announced to
speak on the political issues Of the day.
MIR. G.J.Coulthard occupied the chair, who
after some singing, introduced the speaker
of the evening.
There probabably never was greater con-
glomeration Of gross mi statements, wrong
conclusions and weak wishy-washy illustra-
tions, betraying an ignorance and narrow
minded conception of political affairs in
this country, than the harangue of the rev.
erend gentleman from Pem5ina county.
Hades was let loose, shortly afterwards
when the monkeys and the parrots indulged
in the usual high old time. Acrimonious
debate, fist shaking, parliamentary motions,
oil and water palaver, made the atmosphere
of the Presbyterian church redolent with the
fumes of a genuine republican convention.
We refrain from giving the names of those
who participated in this most outrageous
attempt, as some one has characterized it,
to bulldoze this community, besides we don't
know which is the monkey and which the
parrot, >-%-~- ~.a&

Hot Under the Collar.

The Eagle (Willow City,, last week, got
off its usual phlegm because we happened
to state phenomenal fact about the late
frost. We cannot say much by way of re-
buke, because the editor being absent would
then have occasion to apologize for the hot
.headedness Of his youthful representative
for whom little dose Of phlegmagogue
would be beneficial and we want to spare
him that afaiction. The fact which we
stated mildly is now emphatically stated
that on the morning of the 18th inst there
was no frost on the platform Of the depot at
Bottineau at the departure Of the train while
at Willow City the platform Of the depot
was entirely covered with frost. The
marked difference between the two places
was observed by and commented on by Con-
ductor Sloman, Engineer Greene, Fireman
Bennett, and y. s. Surveyor Greene, pas
senger on the train. But, what's the use ?

II pleases the lawyer, and his client, too,
to have the verdict Of the jury unanimous,
for it is good for nothing unless all the

great jury, composed Of the American trav-
cling public, has rendered unanimous YER
dict on : The Burlington " - railroad,
agreeing that its promises Of fast time, sure
connections, and frst-class accommodations
are always carried out TO the letter. This
pleasant verdict has not been obtained
without great pains taken to build the best
