Not a Discordnnt Note.

Agratifying feature of the war situation
is the fact that the people are united in ia
vor of vigorous prosecution of the war.
Those who were of the opinion. before
Congress took the step which made war
inevitable, that there was no good cause
for war, have put aside the question of
the business of the cause and are
ready and willing to do what they can
to make the war a successful one. They
DO not admit that they were wrong. They
simply say that the time for discussing
that question has passed. The~sentiment of
the people now is that the war must be
fought to a finish as rapidly as circum-
stances will permit. and that the purpose
for which the war was inaugurated, name
ly, to drive the Spaniards out of Cuba,
must be accomplished. That they are very
much in earnest there is no doubt, and
they will bear without murmur the bur
dens which the war will put upon them is
beyond question.
If there are those who think that the
response to the Presidents cali for volun-
teers will be slow and unsatisfactory
they will be disappointed. AS many volun-
teers as are wanted will be obtained with
out the least trouble The news from all
parts of the country is that the number of
those who are anxious to enlist exceeds ex-
pectation. The cause and purpose of the
war are lost sight of in great measure.
All that is thought of is that the country
needs some of her sons to assist in fighting
her battles.
1t does not now look as If the President
would have to call twice or to ask Congress
to authorize him TO offer additional COM
of men needed. The prospect is that many
more will offer than will be accepted. The
young men especially seem to be determin-
ed that the country shall come out of the
conflict with Spain with such honor and
glory that generations will point with
pride to this war for Cuba's freedom.
If discordant note is uttered anywhere
during the war it will be in Congress,
rather than among the people. Congress
got far ahead of the people in finding a
cause for war and in bringing about war,
but now that the war spirit has been
aroused. the people will be, in all proba-
bility. more earnest than Congress for a
vigorous prosecution of the war. They
know they will furnish the men TO do the
fighting. All they ask of Congress is to
back them up with the kind of legislation
that the situation demands. They don't
want any politics in the war. They want
only patriotism.
If the war is unnecessarily prolonged or
great mistakes are made the administra-
ton and Congress will be to blame. With
a united and patriotic people to support it,
and with millions Of men and billions of
money at its command, the administration,
If 1t does not carry on the war vigorously
and successfully, will stand no chance
whatever in receiving the Endorsement of
the people.

An Exception.

Senator Vest has a favorite story which
he has told on the occasion of many a no.
htical speech, but, so far as known. never

says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
"A temperance lecturer was Struggling
against odds in Kentucky" says the SEN
ator. HE was talking to a not very
large audience that had been drawn to the
hall by curiosity. The effect Of alcohol
is to shorten life said the lecturer.
AN old man at the rear Of the han
rose at that juncture and said: You're
a liar
'Why?' inquired the advocate of Ad-
ans ale.
" Because, sir, I've been drinking for
seventy-five' years and I'm 80. and am
likely to live to be 100 / am strong enough
TO lick you if you'n step outside

practical operations of war are keeping
discreetly quiet just now. The
men who are clamorlng for
war at any cost" cannot be
utilized and as a rule, they know 1t.
War is a serious business, and, however
justifable 1t may be, is not to be viewed
lightly. If there be no alternative the
American soldiers milltiamen and volun-
teers win fight and night well; but they
are not going about with chips on their
shoulders at this time hunting for trouble.
The fellows who do that now need not
be looked for at the front when the pow
der Is burned.

Retrospect.
From IIarner,s Razar.


When you were here, I often SAT
Love-silent with you half the day:
There was small need of speech in that
Sweet converse of the blended way.
Now you are gone, and hour by hour
muse of things long to share;
There's not bud, leaf, a flower.
But helps me miss you everywhere.
My lonely heart, enspheres the past
With ether caught from heavens gold
dream of bliss too sweet to last.
And then I waken, starved and cold
For by that solitary path
That outward leads from mortal ken
You walked; and here am I, and faith
And jostling crowds of careless men.
I've touched the inmost core of pain
In creeping days, each day a year:
Yet might sit'tongue- tied again.
II you were here, if you were here.

Our Friends the Enemy.
From the Norfolk Landmark (Dem.) J..

The people of Spain, individually, love
liberty and are intensely proud of their
country. Collectively, they are shiftless
careless, mutually distrustful. They know
that they are governed wretchedly, and
they know that they are themselves large
~ responsible for the fact; but they do
not care. There Is no national Spanish
character in the sense m which other ma
tons understand the expression. The
people OF Spain despise foreigners and dis
trust each other. They will fight. They
always do that, but they are fighting
against their own faults, which always
defeat them.

It thus appears that the precedent as
regards the great transatlantic cables Is
yet to be made. Spain might with impun-
ity cut the cable between Havana and Key
West. since that wire connects Spanish
and American territory. but whether the
European powers would permit her to In
terfere with any other cable is a question.
Under present circumstances. they would
probably wish that the cables should not
be hterfered with; at the same time, there
might come a time later when some one
of the Great Powers would desire TO cut
the cables themselves. Whatever stand
they take in the near future, therefore, will
probably be taken with an eye to its eff
feet upon their own affairs hereafter.

THE DREADED
CONSUMPTION

T. A. Slocum, M. c., the Great Chem
list and Scientist, Will Send Free,
to the Afflicted, Three Bottles of
His Newly Discovered Remedies to
Cure Consumption and All Lung
Troubles.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan-
thropic or carry more joy to the afflicted,
than the offer of T. A. Slocum, M. c.,
of 1873 Pearl street, New York City.
Confident that he has discovered an
absolute cure for consumption and all
pulmonary complaints, and to make it's
great merits known, he will send, free,
three bottles of medicine, to any reader
of the Bismarck TRIBUNE who is suffer-
ing from chest, bronchial, throat and
lung troubles Or consumption.
Already this "news scientific course Of
medicine" has permanently cured thou
sands of apparently hopeless cases.
The doctor considers it his religious
duty-a duty which he owes to human
ity-to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely, is enough to commend
of the great chemist making the propo
sition.
He has proved the dreaded consump-
ton to be a durable disease beyond any
loubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
the mistake will be in overlooking the
generous invitation. He has on file in
his American and European laboratories
testimonials Of experience from those
cured, in all parts of the world.

been done, but it is only in spots. and,
in the aggregate, it will not be, large.
Ihe farmers have discovered an unex-
pected ally in the gulls, which are num-
erous throughout the central portion of
the state. These birds usually live near
lakes, but make long trips away from
water in search of food. They are
voracious insect eaters: and the young
hoppers appear to exactly suit their
taste. Many gulls have been found
dead in the fields with their crops full
of grasshoppers, their foraging having
been conducted with more vigor than
good judgment. Little is to be feared
from the insects in the eastern counties
this year, but it is possible that enough
eggs may be laid to make things inter-
esting in the valley. The farmers, as a
rule, are on the alert, however, AMI, in
stead of looking upon a swarm of grass
hoppers as a mysterious visitation of
providence, before which man is power
less, they realize that the plague may be
controlled like any other, by the appli-
cation of simple but scientific remedies.
The important thing is to destroy all
eggs by blowing.
