MAKING An ARMY.

the n. Y Herald's correspondent in
Manila says the volunteers do not like
the work. If the Philippines are y be
held, they want some other fellows
to hold them"
This is a great lesson learned in a
short war. The waste OF rich material
has been simply eXtrayagant, The ma
ton has been simply prodigal OF its re-
sources. Why send skilled jewellers 10
plant corn? Why send trained me-
chanics to built stone fences? Why
send out graduates of fine schools to
shovel coal? Why cause women and
children to suffer without reason?
1t is not a question OF patriotism
This great nation has abundant re-
sources in men, who, like the men In
the British army are foot loose, y
without steady occupation, admirable
under restraint and discipline. unable
to control themselves but under
trained officers, brave as the brayest,
restless and vacillating from the alb
sence Of will-power. In the awful
waste made in maintaining armies
these as matter OF economy, should
cons. ute the army. Behind these are
the new who are the bone and sinew
OF the country, and should be called
upon only when the country Is in need

THE VOLUNTEERS.

After the Thanksgiving day dinner
OF the troops stationed at Waialae, Col
onel Barber made a brief and touching
address to the men. mere abstract
OF which we print in another place.
The men have endured, for several
months the severe hardshipS of mac

did not volunteer. They cannot cry

Of them have made in sprInging to the

not easy for them, under the circum-
stances, to offset these sacrifices with
this condition OF inaction At the same
time. II Is true that, in the larger sense.
they have filed their contract with
the nation. and taken their share Of
the burden and evils OF war.
Colonel Barber, for them, gracefully
acknowledged the kindly labOrs of Tho
ladies of this city in furnishing sub
stitute for the pleasures of Thanksgiv-
ing at their homes on the banks of the
HUDSON and Mohawk rivers, and in the
towns along the Shawangunk range of
mountains and beyond. One thing is
certain. As the n. Y. volunteers return
and settle in their homes. this episode
in their lives. "A Thanksgiving in the
tropics, will remain always a pleasant
memory, and they will tell their grand
children, their children's children, OF
the time when ! was in Hawaii"
