Perhaps 1t Is but natural re- suit of this view that the instant the heart is affected, off we go to the doctor, no matter what the fee. We suffer all sorts of pains in the stomach. We en- dure much from the torpid liver. We put aside the thought of danger to the lungs by saying:

ALLIANCE TALK.

The. people will take with liberal al
ant preliminary steps towards an
Anglo American alliance have already
been taken. The story is given on the
authority of the Washington CORE
spondent of the London Telegraph, and
is quite minute in its details. 1t all
reads very nicely; quite as nicely as a
complete story in a Sunday supplement.
England is to recognize the Monroe
doctrine and agree not to extend her
possessions on the western hemisphere.
This country is to build the Nicaragua
canal ard England is to have the use
of it in war time. The United States
are to retain all the colonies conquered
from Spain, and are to stand by Eng
land in her policy in China. All this
reads very nicely, as we have said.
But as things grow from the things
they feed upon, so all this Anglo
American alliance talk is begetting
more alliance talk. Thus the Berlin
correspondent of the New York Herald
says he has authority for the statement
that the idea of England, Germany and
America joining hands is being ser
icusly entertained, not so much in Ber-
lin as in Washington and London. This
is really a grander idea than that of
dual alliance, though it lacks the per-
fection of detail. To this new triple al
lance it is by no means impossible
there may be joined France. Russia,
Austria and Italy, making it the great
modern heptarchy.
All this talk about alliances, no mat
ter with what country, is premature,
no matter what else it may be. There |
isn't the slightest reason in the world |
to believe that any oYertures for an al
liarce have been made by or to this gov
eminent, but when details of any pro-
posed alliance are given, it simply be- |
comes ridiculous. The United States
have never sought alliances, and there |
is no reason why any should be sought |
at this time. 1t is a pleasure to think |
that our English cousins are with us in |
sentiment in the present war, and to /
note their friendliness, but there is no |
prospect, no need of an alliance.

THE FORTUNES OF WAR.

War brings leaders to the front and
spectators to the top. 1t develops
heroism and cupidity; it affords patrio-
tism no greater opportunity than it
presents to avarice.
Through the smoke of battle men
rush to fame Behind the lines others
are accommodating wealth. When the
war is over wealth will dominate vaIor.
1t is doing so now in many of the ap-
pointments being made. Struggles are
often prolonged to give bond-buyers
chance, to make government contract
ors rich
Colossal estates are builded upon the
misfortunes of war, cemented by the
blood of patriotism and the sweat of
labor. War is the harvest time of the
speculator. and men who buy position,
who deal in political power, who SOW
their millions, must reap the harvest
when it ripens. Secure in their rela-
lions with the administration, these
vampires are immune from censure
They denounce as "copperheads" ali
who undertake to warn the public
against them. They try to create the
impression that every criticism of a
policy inaugurated by them or at their
instigation is a criticism of the gov
eminent itself.
Through every stormy sea it passes
the ship of state is followed by a school
of sharks, fattening upon the waste
and mishaps of misshapen policy. Who
takes a shot at one is called a traitor,
because they are fed by those in power
The king can do no wrong; his pets
can do no harm.
In the present war with Spain, heroes
will fall embalmed in glory, and leaders
will rise to historical distinction. Con-
tractors will flourish like the green bay
tree; and the bread cast upon the
waters in 1896 by the financial hackers
of this administration will return with
a fabulous increase, for the many days
have elapsed, and they are impatient
for the reward.

ough as that of the soldier in the regu-
lar army. OF course this cannot be SO
constant as in the army, but there
should be much more of it than is now
given. The officers of the guard should
have instruction that will thoroughly
fit them for the discharge of their du-
ties. If they have such instruction
when they and the troops under them
were called into the service, there
would be very little if any need of re-
differing regiments. 1t goes without
saying that their equipment should be
identical with that Of the regular SOL
diers in every respect.
At present much is being said about
volunteers and regulars, and the volun-
teers are being disparaged. He who
disparages the American volunteer dis
parages the American citizen. He is not
the trained machine a professional sol
der gets TO be and it isn't desirable
that he ever should be. The badly con-
cealed purpose of all this talk about the
volunteer soldier not being reliable and
able to cope with the soldiers of other
nations is to create a public sentiment
in favor of large standing army. That
is the purpose of all the disparagement
of volunteer soldiers. If the United
States are to become a military nation
in the European sense then there will
have to be the CONSUMPTION and
standing army of not less than half
million. That is where all this talk
that volunteer soldiers are not to be
depended upon and that the country
needs large army is tending.
Improve the militia and bring it UP
to high standard in all respects, but
let there be no greatly increased stand
ing army.

ONE LESSON OF THE WAR.


When the war is over the country
will have learned many lessons from it,
and of many kinds. The chief lessons
viii naturally be of military kind.
One of these will surely be that the
country needs more efficient military
reserve than it now has. This reserve
Will be the militia or national guard.
and # put in proper condition it is
ann bat it should be an actual thing
and a thing on paper so much as
now. TO be efficient for war the ma
tional guard should have the same re-
quirements as the army does. The
physical defects that bar a man from
enlistment in the army should bar him
from enlistment in the guard, but when
ia il his instruction should be as thor

DERIVING SOLDIERS OF PIE.

On the health of an army depends
the success of the cause for which it
fights, and if an army loses its health
it loses its cause; therefore it is that
the wise commander looks carefully
after the health of his troops. He is
more careful of their bodily condition
than the cure is of their souls. He
knows that in war the army is the
center of the universe, and the center
of the army is its stomach. In the army
the fable of the stomach and the men,
is the supreme organ, it is the balance
of power.
Recognizing all this. Colonel Crook,
of the Fifth infantry, at Fort Nc
Pherson, Ga, so it is reported, has for
hidden his men to eat pie, for the rea-
son that it causes dyspepsia. The or
der is an act of tyranny, for it strikes
at right that every American holds
dearer than all others. Next to love of
country, he loves pie, and if love of
liberty is a characteristic of the Amer
lean citizen, so is love of pie. Pie may
cause dyspepsia, but deprived of it, the
citizen pines, and eventually dies. Pie
is to the American what opium is to
the oriental. 1t translates him from a
cold, hard world to the realms of
dreamland. where vision succeeds vision
until consciousness becomes nothing
but an ecstatic stare.
The soldiers OF the Fifth infantry
have just cause of complaint against
their colonel, and could mutiny
among soldiers ever be justified, they
would be justified in mutinying. To
deprive an American of pie no matter
under what pretense, is to deprive him
of the sweets of life. Let there be pie
though the heavens fall.

Governors Old Friend.

Governor Atkinson, of Georgia, tells this
story at his own expense: 1T was during
my recent inspection of the convict
camps. Among other places 1 visited
were the coal mines. and in order TO make
a thorough inspection it was necessary to
go down into the mines and see the con-
victs at work. Two guards accompanied
me down into the mines. They showed
me everything oflinterest and finally
took me where the ,convicts were at work.
AS we approached them one of the con-
victs rushed over to me, crying: Good
Lord, Bill Atkinson, as sure as liyei 1
never expected to see you here. What on
earth, Bill. did they convict you OF do
