scouts and other unattached men, to make
a total of 10000. When deductions are
made for the sick, absentees, ETC., the
effective strength of the army would ne
about 25, 600 soldiers and 40 field guns.
The proposed changes would necessitate
an annual expenditure of 81, 200, 900 more
than at present Secretary Lamont claims
that retrenchment in the administrative
branches of the war department the past
year has saved nearly half a million OF
dollars During the year the number OF
independent army posts was reduced from
g5 to so. Congress is asked not to estab-
lish military posts in response to the
wishes of localities. The three pneumatic
dynamite guns at Sandy Hook and the
three to be placed at San Francisco, are
in the opinion of the secretary,a sufficient
number of that class for the present. The
militia of the several states is reported to
be on better footing than ever before.
The secretary advocates more liberal pre-
vision for arming the State troops.

PRESS COMMENTS.
Three Months Of the New Tariff.
(Mail and Express.)


The figures which show the operations
of the mongrel tariff law for the first three
months that it has been in effect are al
most as discouraging to the friends of
tariff reform as the returns of the re-
cent election. The law went into effect on
August 49, and the receipts under its pro-
visions up to Wednesday were 81, 5S4, 1916,
while the treasury expenditures for the
three months We're $92, S31, 17S. There
was as will be observed from the follow
ing statement, a deficiency for each of the
three months:
Receipts-August (three days., 50, $685.
71s; September, S22, ,621, 22S; October,
s19, 139, $40; November (twentyeight
days., ST., 757, 1889; total, sol, 5S4,37
Expenditures - August (three days.,
s3, 1877, ,244; September, $50, 1928, 01S; Octo-
ber $32, 713, 039; November twenty eight
days. s26, ,667, ST.; total, s92, S31, 17S.
The deficiency is $31, ,246, 792. The
expenditures for the three months have
been so per cent, in excess of the revenue
produced by tariff for revenue only. !"
The Democrats have been as unsuccessful
in making a revenue tariff as they have
been in dealing with all other public ques-
tions. They have demonstrated that even
if their principles were correct they are
not capable of successfully applying them,
The receipts during the first three
months that the Mckinley law was in
operation were 800, 0O7, ,012, which total is
so per cent. greater than the receipts un-
der the mongrel law which succeeds the
Mckinley tariff. The Mckinley law pro-
duced surplus of revenue, the mongrel
tariff has caused a deficiency. The Nc
Kinley law brought prosperity to the peo
pie and sufficient income to the govern
ment The new tariff has produced de-
ficits in personal and public incomes.
The amended tariff has been disastrous
in other respects. The report of the COM
missioner of Internal rexenne shows that
last year 60, 600 acres We're added to area
of cane sugar lands under cultivation.
There was also an increase of 65 per cent.
in the production of beet sugar. These
phenomenal gains We're due to the sugar
bounty. That has been abolished; and
this year, instead of an increase in the pro-
duction of American sugar, falling off
will be reported, with corresponding gains
for foreign producers.

Naval officers have various devices for
getting their mail when cruising. Some
when in European waters have all matter
sent to the care of an agent at London. A
few make out tentative itinerary for the
convenience of their correspondents. but
there are too many elements of uncer'
tainty about this for it to be entirely safe.
Thebest rule for the correspondent when
in doubt is to address his man at the navy
department., Washington. ...,
A florist says that he is always glad
when the crysanthemum season is over,
for in spite of the fancy prices asked foi
these flowers they do not yield so sure an
income as roses and pinks. One reason is
that flowers for cutting in order to be
large, m ust be reduced to two or three on
plant Counting the years struggle to
perfect them and all, quarter apiece for
a couple of blossoms is moderate price.
The florists refer to the flowers as ''mums" "

Secretary Lamont, the bold sagacious
mcnt, in his report asks Congress to pass
legislation needed to establish the bat
TALON formation, also other legislation to
this end which will restore to the service
1000 men. +.rs r%
BY restoring to the military establish
ment the strength allowed up to 1874, and
providing for the battalion formation,
with few minor changes, the organiza-
tion of the army will be:
Cavalry: Ten regiments of two squad
rons each; one colonel, one lieutenant
colonel, two extra captains for adiutant
and quartermaster, five non commissioned
staff each squadron, one major or lieu
tenant colonel, and four troops each
troop one captain, two lieutenants, and
so enlisted men. ~
Artillery; Five regiments of three foot
battalions and one field artillery battalion
each; one colonel, one lieutenant colonel,
two extra captains for adjutant and quar-
termaster, and five n-commissioned
staff each foot battalion. one major or
lieutenant colonel and four batteries; the
field artillery battalion, one major and
two field batteries each foot battery, one
captain, two lisutcnants, and 60 enlisted
men; each field battery, one CAP tain, three
lieutenants, and 75 enlisted men.
Infantry: Twenty five regiments of

Hinlcy of Yale may be a great foot ball
captain, but we are inclined to believe
that no college player in the country has
done more to bring the game into disre-
putc. If the newspaper reports arc cor
rect, his treatment of his own players has
been justly open to severe criticism. He
is even said to have expressed his displeas-
ure at one of them by publicly kicking
him. The brutal tactics of the Yale cap
tain in the Yale Harvard game at Spring
field have been fully noted in the news
paper accounts of that event We have
been led to believe from personal observa-
tion of this mans play, year ago, at
Springfield, and newspaper reports OF
the game at the same place, the present
fall, that Hinkcy, more than any other
member of the great colloge teams, is a
player of the slugger variety. We trust
that the next captain of the Yale eleven
may be as strong a player as his predeccs-
sor. and we also hope that he may be a
gentleman.

At BluefieIds.

The interest in the Bluefields embroil-
ment is somewhat lessened by the report
f nat the Mosquito coast Indians have for
mally yielded to the demands OF Mica
ragua that the territory be Incorporated IN
that of the Nicaraguan republic. This
Welding indicates that Great Britain
doesn't care or dare to push her claim to
Jurisdiction over the Mosquito coast. In
deed this claim has not been openly made.
There has been some doubt as to what
claim England might make on the
grounds of her treaty with Nicaragua. 1t
is possible she will yet be heard from on
this point. However that may be, the
provisions of the Clayton -Bulwer treaty
forbid Great Britain from interfering.
Under the provisions of this same treaty
it is evident that pleasant relations be-
tween the United States and Nicaragua
should be maintained on account of the
canal that must be built and held under
the management of the United States.
England has other interests in Central
America that do not agree with the ideas
Of the Monroe doctrine and she will do
well not to imperil those by any attempted
interference with the affairs of the Mos
quito coast The claim of the Indians to
maintain control of the reservation and
repel Nicaraguan authority is absurd as
subsequent events have demonstrated.
The paltry handful of Indians were made
the tools of the, English and American
planters and traders to further their own
ends England was quick to demand the
protection of British interests while our
present administration was slow,as usual.
Its conspicuous weakness in every case
where it has had opportunity for any de-
monstration of it's foreign policy and the
criticisms and condemnation that have
followed, have apparently frightened
it into making a demonstration in the Blue
fields affair where no demonstration at
this time is necessary, except it be a
demonstration of able diplomacy,a a posses
sion unfortunately for the country at this
juncture the administration hasn't got.
The Nicaragua must continue in control
of the Mosquito coast reservation. Its right
has already been recognized by this gov
ernment and only so far as it interferes
with the legitimate interests of Ameri-
cans at Rluefe1dS ShOuld the government
at Washington interfere. 1t is gratifying
to note that the interest aroused over the
affair has shown to the administration
that the Nicaragua canal is to be an
American enterprise of the near future
and that any neglect on its part compro
missing the future of that enterprise would
be visited by the ignominy it would de
serve
