The suggestions of General Lew Wal
lace on the subject of popularizing the
army are worthy of serious considera-
ton. His plan is to make each perma.
nent military post school of instruction
where the soldiers shall be fitted to pass
an examination emitting them to enter
the academy at West Point. In this
way appointments to West Point by
members of Congress and the President
would be superseded by drafts from the
most advanced candidates at the schools
OF the military posts. The rank and file
would thus be provided with an incsn-
tive to rise in the military profession,
and as promotion would be opened to
them in regular way, better class of
citizens would enter the army than is
now the case. The common soldier,
under the present system, has very little
chance to ever wear shoulder straps
West Point makes all the officers, and
West Point is anything but popular
institution. Il is relic of exclusiveness,
and ought to be epopularized in some such
way as General Wallace suggests. Under
his plan it would be the graduating COL
lege of the military institutes at the
posts. It would then furnish officers
not only theoretically fitted for their
vocation, but men Injured to it's practical
details.

wendell philips, Southern story


Here is Southern story from Phillips:
"That most eloquent of sll Southerners.
as think, Mr.. Sargent S. Prentiss, OF
Mississippi, was addressing a crowd OF
4 1000 people in his State, defending the
tariff, and in the course OF an eloquent

the comfort, the wealth, the civilization
Of the North, in glowing colors; when
there rose on the vision of The assembly,
in the open air, horseman of magnift-
cent proportions and just at the moment
of hushed attention, when the voice OF
Prentiss had ceased and the applause
WAS about to break FORTH, the
horseman exclaimed, d. the Northp
The curse was so much in unison
with the habitual feeling OF q
Mississippi audience that it quenched
their enthusiasm. and nothing but re-
spect for the speaker kept them from
cheering the horseman. Prentiss turned
upon his Lame foot and said: Major
Moody, would you rein in that horse q
moment?' He assented. The orator
went on: Major, the horse on which
you ride came from upper Mis-

Ohio Wool Growers Association held
meeting today. Attendance large. An
address was adopted to the wool growers
of the United States, and resolutions
adopted asking the National Association

suggestions in the address. The features
of this address are: SIN view of the i'm

industries of our nation, and especially
the production and manufacture of wool,
the wool growers of Ohio urge the reces-
sity OF unity and activity in order to
avert the peril OF free wool with which
they are now menaced. The wool
growers of Ohio advocate the protective
system. Tariff for revenue only will not
secure protection"
The wool.growers of the United States
are called upon to be fully represented in

Am Important Invention.

A gentleman of this city has applied
for q patent for an invention which it is
believed will cut an important figure in
the bar at the mouth of our
harbor at San Pedro. As the patent has
not yet been secured, we are not permit
ted to describe the invention; but, like a
great many very useful inventions, it is
q very simple contrivance for the pur-
pose of introducing dynamite cartridges
into the hard formation which forms the
bar, and exploding great masses of
it into small fragrants at a
very slight expense. By means of this
invention line of cartridges can be sunk
Eve or six feet below the hard surface clear
across the bar, and at one explosion the
whole series can be fred off. The debris
can then be removed by dredger. 1t will
be remembered that Col. A. w. Won
Schmidt took q contract from the Gov.
eminent year ago to dredge the bar to
a certain depth. He brought his i'm.
proved dredgsr to San Pedro from
Oakland, but when he found that
the bar was hsrd-pan instead of loose
substance, as he had supposed
he threw up his contract. Had he been
possessed of the invention we have des
ignated above, he could have carried ouI
his contract and made it pay. The
loose substance that formerly covered the
bar has all been secured out by the &C.
ton of the tides under the training o
the jetties. The depth of water at low
tide is now from twelve to fourteen feel
where there was originally only two Oh
three feet. Notwithstanding the hard
sandstone formation that exists at the
present depth, we are assured that the
process of lowering is still going
on, very gradually, however, by scour
ing, and that it is only a question ot
time, even without artificial aid, till the
bar will wear away to an even depth
with the channel on the inside Of the har
Dor. But if this action can be expe
dited, as it assuredly can, by the inven
ton of our fellow-townsmsn there is nc
reason why the bar may not be deepened
to level with the depth of the inside
harbor in very short time, and ut {
comparatively small expense.

used in moving the Texas crops. 1t is
stated that the railroad officials were
warned that robbery would be at

and Deputy Marshai on the train. These
two, however, gave up the fight after the
robbers had riddled the car with bullets
