There is at this time q double interest
attaching to the term WALL street. by
reason Of the fact that everything Of b
political nature indicates that the
struggle for the mastery Of this cGun-

attempt to push i5 aside an b6iIGtle It

recently to give expression to my ideas
and opinions in the Senate In no uDCer

have thought well to ask the use Of
the G dumas of Americas greatest
with a view to presenting
certain phases Of the question with

by those who manipulate and control

HOW SHALL OUR MILITARY FORCE B :.

The Auglo-Saxon race has an
s.inctive dislike and distrusJ Of std

saut with the "Mutiuy Act to lea

United Kingdom of Great Britain ao
Ireland. unless it be with the conseo
Of Parliament, is against law The|
first standing army 10 Eogland was
that of Charles the Fourth, and con-
sisted of only one thousand cavalry,
and four thousand foot. 1t is curious
to uotc from the Bill Of Rights in
1889, even down to the present time.
how jealousy the people through Par
lament has guarded this dangerous
power. The people are right 10 their
dislike for Standing armies. all the
more so here, because 10 our country
the whole tendency at present is to-
wards Capitalization Of power in the
hands Of the executive.
Add to the prerogatives already
usurped, an immense military force:
aud 20 poteutate on earth would WELD
the concentrated power Of the President
of the United States 1t would wipe
out the last barrier, and the autonomy
and semi-iudepeudeuce OF the states
would be forever gone.
Yet, my countsymen, the time Ia at
hand when the size and efficiency of our
military force must be increased a:
every session of Congress bills a:e in
troduced along this line. and, 10 fact.
the business seuse Of the country feels
that present conditions are inadequate
to our needs.
The reai question is, how shall 1t be
done without further centralizing this
great power in the hauds Of the Federal
Executive With the advantages of
great aud powerful nation we have its
duties and exposures. We are an &C.
tive, enserprising people. With uo-
paralleled rapidity We have developed
this continent. and now side by SIDE

turing nations. are seeking the markets
of the world for our surplus products.
We can't get rich By swapping dol
lars among ourselves. Under the law
of the survival Of the 6ttest" our
merchants and manufacturers must 60
out into the marts Of the worla aud
take their chance To do this, howev-
er, with every extension Of commercial
boundaries, there must be the ever
present military force to protect COM
smercial supremacy.
