From the st. Louis Globe democrat.
There Is a manifest need Of reform In
that feature Of the government Of the
army and navy which pertains to court
martial procedure. lt has become q
common ihlpg for officers tc settle all
sorts Of petty controversies by appealing
70 that kind Of trlbuaal, at considerable
experso TO the government and 20 the
discredlt OF the service Such trials are
more frequent now than they were
during the war, when there was far
greater occasion for them. There Is
court martial in session somewhere all
the tine. and II often happens that there
are three or four OF than goiug on sh the
same time AS a rule, the cffsI cas-
charged ere Of frivolous nature. and
d. not deserve moments serious
confederation There Is room for
the suspicious that much OF this
incessant court mar falling Is due 20
the fact that no time OF peace tho
officers have 50 much leisure that they
fall into the habi6 Of picking quarrels
with one another, and Of lettiug their
angry passions rise on the smallest
provocstion II is we'll known, also
that every army plst Is A little society
ih itrcitf representing All buo ltIu6uctS
Of envy, resentment snd gossip that
breed trouble in civil life Ths court-
martial presents an easy method Of
bringing these inslgnifsant Rsperities to
focns and making them topics Of
conversation aud excitement But it was
never intended that money voted for the
support OF the army should be FILTERED
away in such proces dlngs; and certainly
the reputation Of the service is not
helped by that sort Of thing

What have been the experiences OF
England 10 the past In war, either In al
lance with other nations or alone against
them? While II is true that conditions
have greatly changed within the past
two decades, thst new military system
has srlsen In Europe since the war be
tween Germsny aud France. II may be
also true that the essential balance OF
things has not been materially altered In
oonse quence TO the great armies OF the
continent, England can still oppose a
great navy. And looking back over
three centuries Of English history, It "a
easy to discover that England has held
her own by her command Of the SEQ.
Would not a war 70 day betWeen Germany

should fpd allies. have much the same

superiority OF England would hardly be

csiyc tsat rroyocation from Spain WAS
cycrloakca by our government for a longer
poriod and with greater patience than any
other government OF equal power would
have tolerated.
After quoting nt lcngth the report mao g
Us General Canpos in 1879 Mr.. Cameron
says;
Cuha's Cause Is just.
"The highest Spanish authorities have
been obliged 90 confess that the grievance
of the Cubans are Just and their aspira-
iicns ios liberty legitimate Ho says the
Spanish government in Cuba is an armed
monarchy. "Tho danger and the scandal
of the Cuban situation, ho says have
been such as can be- compared with moth
ing but the condition OF Armenia. "
lie asserts that state of war exists,
and that with that alone we have TO deal.
''The precedents for recognition axe" he
says "cleur and if our action were to be
decided By precedent alone we should not
be able TO hesitate - He asserts that the
insurgents have made a record which en-
titles them to recognition, and adds:
"If the government of tbe United States
still refrnins from recognizing the bellig-
erency of the insurgents after this conclu-
siVe proof OF the fact, the reason doubtless
is that In tho absence of legal complica-
tions The question becomes wholly politi-
cal, and that its true solution must lie
not in recognition of belligerency, but
in a recognition Of independence.
lie says, in conclusion, that he is conf
lent that no other action acoords with our
friendly relations with Spain, our just
sympathy with Cuba and with our dignity
and consistency.

About boundary Lines.

There are two methods OF 6x,ng a
boundary between countries. states Dr.
d. R. Mill It may be done BY craving
a mathematical line-like meridian OF
parallel Ion map; or It may be marked
on the ground FROM physical features, OF
which only two ara satisfactory, the
watsr shed and the centre Of the river or
valley.
The development OF the YuruArl gold
mines makes It hopeless to expect the
dispute over the boundary bstwesn
Venezuela and British Guiana to be
settled BY the geographical principles
which forty yeAis ago could have easily
prevented dispute. The only alternatives
are to base the rival claims on actual
elective possession, or on the original
rights which wsre rscoznlz d bstWesn

Horace G. Rettew must nave had a
very straight tip from the Higgins mana
gers that he could not have the Republi-
can shrisvAllty nomination. They are In
for harmony now and are willing to give
William Finn the nomination which he
SO nearly won In 1894. in order that they
may slate the other nominees and be
endorsed In their action by Mr.. Films

We understand that Councilman
James p Ratledge. Of the Twelfth ward,
who sspires to the ofice OF receiver Of

structed to stand to one side for At least
two years in order that Mr. Rettew may

WASHINGTON. jan 30 The presenta-
tion of committee reports on Cuba and a
highly dramatic and sensational speech on
the silver bond bill from Mr. Tillman, the
new senator from South Carolina furnish
ed two stirring events in the senate. The
majority resolution on Cuba asks the pres
ident to urge Spain to grant belligerent
rights to the insurgents, while the minori-
ty report directs the president 10 take steps
toward securing from Spain the complete
independence Of Cuba. Both resolutions
went to the senate calendar.
Such torrent Of inyective has seldom
been heard in the senate as that in the
speech of Mr.. Tillman Veteran members
OF the body characterized the speech as
one Of the most remarkable in the history
of the upper branch Of congress. IL tabound-

There was directness Of statement and

senator were used frequently in acting his
words At one point he made profound
salute and tipped his hat to Sherman"
as the financial victor of quarter of a

his voice resounded through the chamber

AN Anniversary.

This is almost the anniversary of the
great freeze of 1895 that blasted so many
hopes. Since that time, after it had be-
come known just what damage was done.
it has been the general opinion that if we
could get through this winter without
heavy freeze that would nip back the young
sprouts put out through the summer. it
would take but few years for the orange
trees to recover themselves. Of course
this referred to the large groves, and not to
the younger budded trees where the dam
age was much greater.
We have had many solemn predictions
from the would-be weather prophets about
the fearful billiards we would have during
January. Happily these predictions have
come to naught, and so far we have had an
ideal winter and everything to encourage
the orange grower. Of course the freeze
may come yet, but we will not borrow
trouble. Florida S prospects are Frightening
with each passing day, and it will not be
long. if the weather clerk is kind, before
we will again be shipping thousands of our
incompatible oranges.
