TO FEED HUNGRY SOLDIERS
The Canadian Government viii Try Novel
Experiment.
A Kitchen ON Wheels Capable of Pro-
vfdfng for More Than o
Thousand Men.

The Canadian government has just had
built, in accordance with designs furnished
by the military authorities car that will
play an important part in any future war
fare in which Canadian soldiers take part.
The car is gigantic kitchen, capable of
furnishing meals, on a pinch. to as many
as 500 hungry soldiers without overtaxing
its capacity. The immense extent of terri
tory which il would be necessary to protect
in case of general war has been for some
time source of uneasiness to the Cana
dian government. 1t has been evident that
the sparsely settled country. so different
from the thickly populated states on this
side of the border. would be very weak
basis for line of battle. While the United
states would have rich foraging should
supplies run short, the British would find
Only barren hills and empty wastes in a
large part of the region over which they
would be spread to guard the frontier. To
provide against this emergency it was de-
cided TO build a car that would be a gigan-
tic Kitchen on wheels, and to make a care
ful test of its capacity for feeding troops
with view TO ascertaining how many of
such cars would be required in time Of
war to feed the entire military force of the
dominion.
The is now finished and experiments
will begin at once. A train is to be dis
patched over the Canadian Pacific railway
from one side of the continent to the other
On this train there will be body of SOL
d;ers which will depend for subsistence en-
tirely upon the rolling kitchen that accom-
panies them. Meals will be served accord
ing to carefully prepared schedule. AMI
the ofncer in command will take notes of
the incidents of the trip, in order that the
government may have the fullest possible
data to guide them in their calculations to
determine the value of the idea.

Only two Republicans we're elected aldermen

In his inaugural address Mr.. Mckinley dis
cussed revenue, protective tariff, reciprocity,
merchant marine currency, pensions, protection
of American citizens abroad, immigra ton, civil
service, free elections, lynchings and arbitra-
ton, but made no mention of the liquor ques-
ton. Why should he? He was not elected for
that purpose. To be sure he received a large
number of votes because he was "a good
Methodist" His church has declared for pro-
hibition and even the platform upon which he
was elected declared the sympathy of the party
with all wise and legitimate efforts to prevent
the evils of intemperance and promote morality -

Foreign capitalists are gradually acquiring
the ownership of our breweries. Let the good
work 60 on. A good many Americans hate
Johnny Bull more than they do the devil, or
what amounts to the same thing-the saloon.
If the advertising columns of a newspaper
contain the cards OF saloons and breweries, it is
a waste of time to look in the editorial depart
ment for prohibition editorials. The editorial
office and the counting room are in close con-
nection.
The idea of Dave Clough vetoing a measure
because of his ''desire to maintain unimpared
and unimpeached the honor and the reputation
of our state for good faith and fair dealing' is
enough to make mule swallow his kicking pro-

skirmsh, we are glad to get out of it into the

knife with the whole saloon system, whether
next door to our homes or in Kamchatka, and
with the chief allies of the saloon, the license
parties.
