Washington, April q. = The house
passed as an emergency war measure
the bill empowering the president to
call out the volunteer forces and pro-
viding for their organization. Both the
president and Secretary Alger had
urged the imperative necessity of the
passage of the bill, and Chairman
Hull, Of the military committee, drove
it through under whip and spur. The
bill was drafted at the war depart
lnent, introduced in the house Tues
day and considered and reported by
the committe yesterday. No such ex-
pediency could have been possible ex-
cept under stress of war pressure.
The bill is permanent in its character.
The principal change made in the bill
as introduced was that the appoint
ment of all regimental officers are to
be made by the governors Of thesstates
instead Of by the president, as was
proposed originally by the war depart
ment. This action conforms to the
practice at the time of the civil war.
There was q tremendous dem0nstra-
tion in the house Immediately after the
reading of the Journal, when Mr.. Pru-
den, the presidents executive clerk,
announced the presidents approval OF
the Cuban resolutions. The galleries
cheered and the members on the floor
applaudedt vigorously. The speaker
with difficulty suppressed the ovation
with, which the announcement was

When lien die who have oc.

good work ior the State or church

alton. it is the lnvariaGie rule OF
newspapers to speak we'll OF them,

lives. 1t would seem that IN do
Ing this the newspaper had dis
charged It's tull duty to the public
and to the deceased; but there are
societies and orders and organlza-
tions that would also like to make
some public announcement touch
Ing the esteem in which the de-
parted had been held by his aSso

citation and sympathy and sorrow
are strung out.in tributes OF res

the newspaper attaches money

It's in The religious press that
the obituary writer finds the am
plest scope for his talents, and his
work of "embalmings the memory
of the dead as has been pursued
with such activity that the reli-

for self protection to publish such
remindeys as the iollowin g, which
We take from the Southern Pres

We would like to suggest to
Our weekly and daily contempo ,

blame for the value which the

enterprises just as mills, and fac

We Go not know who m sdo the

hal "bccn there" himself. More
over, he was the edjtos Ola "coun-
try newspaper as we are assured
by the New York Tribune. ami if
he had written Tor a year he cOnl.
not have stated the ease more
clearly, and with such a wealth OF
philosophy:
.sThe editor has a charter from

Tor the town, and whoop it up for
You when you run for ollie, and

job, and weep over your shnveled
soul when ii is released from its
grasping body, and smile at your
wite's second marriage. Don't
worry about the editor, he'll get
along. The Lord only knows how
but somehow"
That covers the case, AMI covers
it all over. The country newspa-
pers in this State do more hard
and thanklesS service for their
respective communities than all
the oficeholders and professional
sharps and gentlemen Of leisure
who were created for some pur-
pose, We suppose. They work
early and late, and ninety per
cent. of their work goes without
reward. 1t is a strange thing
about the newspaper business gen
orally that most people do not re-
gard it as business at all. Gus
toners 60 into 4 store and pay for
what they get. They do not ask
for a pound of crackers, a bunch OF
cigars, Il box oil candy, a bolt of
cloth, or any OF the many thou
sand tsiitga which are sold, but
they ask the price OF the articles
which they think they would ike,
and if the articles suit and the
price is about what they can af-
ford to pay for them, they pay
for them in cash, or have 1t
charged" 1t is not 50 with news

great speech, and 1t is reported al
length by man who is paid for

generally tries to get them for

central committee. James L. O'Connor
was temporary chairman. He said, in
part: While fully recognizing the right
of individual thought and action we, as
a party. cannot forget the democratic
national convention in 1896 sent forth
her mandates and these mandates have
not been recalled. To those commands
he democrats of Wisconsin SHOULD ba
loyal or justly stand accused of barter
ing principle for acquisition of offices.
Without intent to anticipate the action
OF this convention, for myself, j believe
II better for my ~party-yes, ten thou
san times better-to go down TO defeat,
fighting consistently, than to acquire a
victory at the sacrifice or principle"
Chairman O'Connor spoke over an
hour and was a%pplauded throughout. A
recess was taken until evening, when
the temporary organization was mad
permanent. The resolutions committee
report vas read and adopted unani-
mously. In 1t no reference to an
naXation is made. Allegiance TO demo-
cratic principles as set forth in the Chi
cage platform is reatiirmed.
Tbs resolutions continue: W. con-
graduate he citizens of the nation on
their loyalty and ardent patriotism dis
played in the vigorous prosecution Of
the late war and we especially honor the
American army n navy for their valUr
and bravery on land and sea, and we
condemn in unstinted measure the war
department for the blunders and crimes
committed against the brave boys in
blue in camp and on foreign battlefields
by selfish contractors, incompetent sur
gsons. and vain, hsartlsss army officers,
appointed for political purposes. and We
hereby pledge to our brave sailors and
soldiers who survive this war our earn
est and loyal support TO secur the pun
ishment Of the guilty parties"
Nine planks are then devoted to an ar
raignment Of the republican state ad-
ministration Further declarations favor
a new primary law to the end that all
nominations shall be made by direct vote
of the people.
The platform concludes: We believe
in the referendum, the submission Of al

Pekin reports confirm the statement
that the Chinese government has deter

Tor protection against Russian aggrss-
sion.
Russia has vigorously protested against
the reorganization OF the Chinese army
and navy under British auspices. The pa
pers say IL is much to be hoped that Eng
land will not weaken, that China will be
firm and that the United States will give
them the fullest moral support.
Chinese papers publish the contract
made between the Sheng Taotai and a
Belgian syndicate for the construction of
the Lu Han railway. 1t is a very different
enterprise from the original project. The
Belgians have practically transferred
their contract to the Russian government,
the Russo-Chinese bank openly holding
5000 out of 5000 shares. while il practi-
cally owns the remaining shares.

IuspeCted the Troops.

San Francisco, Aug. 8.-To-day at the
Preside. from the Preside bridge. Briga-
der General Miller reviewed the 1000
troops representing part of the Philippine
army of invasion, now encamped in this
city. Previous 10 the review the troops
were inspected by regiments and were
then marched upon the field.
There were two ~brigades, the first, in
command of Colonel Berry, consisting OF
the 9TH California, two battalions of the
LIST Washington, the Wyoming light artil-
lery, two battalions Of the California
heavy artillery and one battalion of the
23d L. S. infantry.
The second brigade was commanded by
Colonel Smith, and included the Tonnes
see regiment, the Kansas regiment and
the 51st Iowa. Colonel Frederick Funston
of the Kansas regiment was designated as
acting van commander.
The review consumed more than IN
hour. and was entirely satisfactory 10
General Miller, who extended his COM
pliments to the brigade commanders. The
demonstration was witnessed by numer-
Gus army officers not directly concerned
in the ceremonies, who were loud in their
praise of the splendid manner in which
the volunteer troops deported themselves
and their military appearance generally.
