THE SOLDIERS IDEAL.
Lessons In Devotion and Daring Fro
the Army.

Lessons In Devotion and Daring From
the Army.
In the arms, with its vague and few
and distant rewards, there may be and
there are rivalries in devotion and dar-
ing, but there is no competition for
place and money as there Is in civil life,
and yet the soldiers ideal being duty,
the performance of duty seems sufficient.
1t is state of things which can suggest
much to those who are fond of battling
the hope of better things in as with the
assertion that 1t is contrary to human
nature to act from any but interested
and selfish motives. Human nature is
a great mystery, and we have not yet
begun to solve it; but it appears that a
number of men drawn at random from
society and trained to belief In duty
as the chief good, will keep ON not only
living it but dying it. We civilians talk
much, we almost talk solely of our
rights, but in the army 1t seems that
men talk chiefly of their duties, when
they talk at all, and never of their
rights, These things are true of all
ranks; the ideal is the same from the
private to the general, and It seems to
correct all the mistaken tendencies of
the time before they became soldiers.
If, as Ruskin has fancied, the army
should ever serve us as the norm of the
civil state, and we should come to have
soldiers of the plowshare as well as
soldiers of the sword" it might not be
long before we should be told that it
was against human nature to act sell
hshly, and that to be Fecreant to the
general welfare in any aim or deed was
TO be guilty of conduct unbecoming q
citizen and gentleman. However this
may be, it is certain and it is significant
that those who have attempted to dream
out future brighter than this present
have always had something IKE q mill
tary organization in their eyes; but
these visionaries have somehow beheld
little of the gaiety and enjoyment which
are quite as compatible with the per-
Torrance of duties as with the assertion
of rights.-W. d, HOwells, in Harper's
Magazine

The Cincinnati convention of Nav 10
may be all right, and no doubt thou
sands of good men are working in the
interest of it, but the alliance of Indi-
ana and of the United States would
have much more hope in the convention
under different leadership. This self
appointed leader who s'by common con-
sent has taken charge of the affair"
is the self same man who, having
got in possession of the secret
work of the alliance through
Kansas renegade, came to Indianapo-
lis at our last annual meeting, sat in its
secret session, and only left his seat
when the secret work was to be exem-
plthed, and the president refused to
have it done in his presence. He also
attended the National Alliance meeting
at Ocala, Fla, remained in its secret
session and occupied more time than
almost any member or delegate in the
convention. We have in our possession
letters written by this man to the pres
ident and state secretary urging them
to issue him credentials as delegate-at-
large from Indiana to the Ocala
meeting, that he might have
the advantage of the low rail-
road rates offered to delegates. We
refused to perjure ourselves by issuing
credentials to man not selected and
not member Of our order; yet he was
there and to all appearance one of the
most important delegates in the meet
ing. We do not believe the alliance
people have much use for leader who
will force himself into the secret session
OF any body, when he has never taken
the obligation or been recognized as a
member. If the radical element of the
independent movement desires the CO.
operation of the conservative element
OF the alliance, they should be careful
whom they permit to lead them.-In-
dianapOlis Alliance Advocate.

price is regulated by the export market
then this sub-treasury plan must be adj
mitted to be the discovery of great
economic truth. The price of these
products being fixed by the export price,
1t depends, of course, upon the supply Of
gold and the demand for its use in such
foreign countries; therefore the huctua-
tions here do not correspond with the
general level of local prices expressed
in local money, and the producer and
consumer alike are at the mercy of the
speculator. If the domestic price is
governed by foreign quotations, then
i, effective measures should be inau-
gurated for preserving thesame ratio be-
tween the supply and demand for
money that prevails in the foreign mar
kets. This is effectually done by utiIiz.
ing the domestic product which is priced
abroad as basis for domestic issue of
currency.
This system says, practically: We
have been hampered by having domes-
tic prices of these products based on
foreign gold, and we now propose to
utilize foreign gold as a circulating
medium in this country for the purpose
of handling these products, which it
prices
Now certificates are issued against
gold and silver bullion deposited in
government warehouses, while under
the proposed system certificates would
be issued against gold coin in circula-
ton abroad but represented by wheat
and cotton deposited in the government
warehouses here. This must fully
establish the wisdom and conservatism
of the system.
"The effect of the introduction of
this system will be of no direct benefit
to the farmer only as it removes dis
examinations against him. The benefit
will come from the fact that money is
put in circulation when it is needed to
keep prices from falling.
1.-The result then will be powerful
tendency toward the stability of price,
no discrimination for or against any
class, but an equal benefit to all"

OUR WEDDING DAY.

Our wedding day, dear heart
We'll 1 remember
How crisp the hoar-frost lay
That chill December.
was a foolish thing,
How my heart failed me;
Little you knew or guessed
What Z was that allied me.
Iha1 my doubts Of you
Only Just fancyi
Would you have thought II, jack
Ofyour fond NRncyi
People kept telling me
Men were deceivers;
Women most foolish folk,
Needless believers.
Would you be l1iudi asked,
And my heart fiuttered;
True to the marriage vows
Your lips had utteredi
Ten years ago, dear love
How the time passes.
Jack drink my health again;
Fill up our glasses.
Don't wipe my tears aWayi
They're not for sadness.
My heart is full to-day
Only Of glndness.
How true you've been to me
None can guess ever;
Husband, stand by me still
Never to sever.
AS DER the frosty sky
Wintry clouds hasten.
Our Joys in future, Jack
Trials may chasten.
Still hand in hand wen step
Fearing no morrow;
Wind blows the clouds away,
Love chases sorrow.
Our wedding day is DER
Twelve the clocks striking.
Look at me, Jack-an
Still TO your lil1ingi
Don't say word, you gooseI
Only remember
love you better now
Than that December.
