which should receive immediate con.
sideration by our farmers. The exper-
lence of the older sections to the west
of us and in fact everywhere has been
that the greatest profit from products
of this kind can only be realized by
feeding to stock on the ground. Hence
the farmers who are going to have a
surplus of feed should get together and
make an effort to get cattle and sheep

IF Secretary Ayers war record Is

able to prove II by General Miles.
Yesterday. in the progress of the war
investigation farce. General Miles was
a witness. What he had to say was
almost uniformly in criticism of the
preparations made by the war depart
ment for the transportation. care and
equipment of the Santiago expedition.
According to the Generals testimony.
fair weather was the godsend with
which our soldiers were favored when
they were on the voyage to the Cuban
coast. On this point General Miles put
a touch of sarcasm into his testimony
when he remarked that. las II was.
with fair weather. the men below,
crowded in with the mules and the sup
plies, could get on deck"-which would
have beer impossible in a heavy sea.
As for a part of the provisions fur
nished for the Porto Rico expedition.
General Miles illustrated his testimony
brilliantly when he characterized three
hundred and twenty-seven ton OF e

beef and added that one hundred and
ninety-eight thousand pounds Of al
legged canned fresh beef was stun not At

ers who may be able to prove their
claim under the present pension laws.
without regard to whether said soldier
was enlisted in the federal or confeder-
ate service Of the civil war of 1916;
provided. that those enlisted In me con-
federate service shall not draw n
back pensions prior 20 the passage OF
this bill. but their claim under existing
law shall begin and become operative
with the passage OF this bill"
This resolution r. adroitiy drawn. II
does not revert TO the days hat are
past: Il simply applies to the c~onfeder-
ate living the rule of conduct which the
president of the United States proposes
to apply to the confederate dead. The
presidents remark Is that "the time
has now come when the North ought
to help TO care for the confederate
dead" the Butler resolution assumes
that, likewise. the time has now come
when the confederate dead M the con-
federate living should be dealt with
share and share alike.
For a long time the sentiment has
grown that IL the nation wants to do
something gracious for n ~ex-confed-
crates. something more substantial
ought to be done than the care OF the
graves of the dead. For that matter.
President Mckinley proposes no new
thing in his Atlanta speech. More h
six thousand confederate soldiers are
buried in the confederate ceme-
teries near Chicago: II Is the
custom with surviving Union sol
diers TO assist In decorating their
graves. In Montana the Grand Army
veterans decorate alike the graves OF
the blue and the gray. A suggestion to
do something in a practical way was
recently made by Congressman Rixey
of Virginia-he is the author OF a house
bill providing that the soldiers and
sailors homes OF the United States
shall be open to all needy soldiers and
sailors without discrimination as to
whether they served on the union or
confederate side.
This nations pension roll Is a scan
dali. 1t carries nnua appropriations
in sums of tens OF millions OF dollar
that GO to people who are not entitled
TO help on any just count. That fact,
however. has nothing to do with the
Butler resolution. That resolution sim
ply applies TO the living the patriotic
test which the president proposes TO
apply to the dead. What will Presi-
dent McKinley's encourage do with II?

When IL IL Read.

TT was on nomination of Senator Hoar
to read washington's farewell ad-
dress in the hearing OF the members of
the upper house. on the twenty-second
day of next February. Were the Mas
s~achusetts senator nermitted to have
his way. he doubtless would order that
the paragraphs I'm the famous farewell
that deal with foreign relations be read
twice in the hearing of the senate.
Indeed. IL would be well were the
words Of Washington craven on the
hearts of federal senators in this day
n generation. We have fallen upon
times when among men in public life
n disposition is evinced TO make IL ap-
pear that. after all, Washington didn't
know what Is best for the American
people. There are several members of
the senate OF to-day who are willing
TO confess that they ought to be re-
garded as the successors of Washing
ton as first in the affairs OF war and
first in what Is best to do In times of
peace.
When these gentlemen hear read
what Washington said about keeping
clear OF foreign ENHANCEMENT, their
comment will be that Washington may
a " been all very well In his day but
that he wouldn't ft these Pacifc-em-
pire times at all.

Honors Ahead.

~EwEY will be honored with the
lO) rank of admiral-there is no
doubt about that. The question
that presents itself. as the result of
bills already before congress-. is whether
that high title will pass by inheritance
10 others in this country's naval forces.
In the house OF representatives a bill
reported from the committee on affairs
of the navy restricts the title of adj
miraI and vice-admiral TO the lifetime
of those who are first appointed 20
these grades. In the senate, Mr.. Hale
has a bill for the permanent revival of
both titles.
In support OF the senate plan IL Is
urged that n navy is far more m
portant M powerful than II has for
merly been. that. under plans which
are sure TO prevail. that branch of the
service will be very greatly strength
ened and increased. and that this coun-
try's naval establishment will be Il
proportions which will warrant the per-
n addition to the roster of officers
In the two proposed grades. On the
other hand. there is manifested a very
strong desire among the American peo-
pie to honor Dewey signally by reviv-
ing for his especial use and benefit he

future to care for those who may merit
the high distinction.

miraL. When Farragut died. Porter he

The Quick and the Dead.

IN congress and out OF IL are many
Southerners-not TO say Northern
ers. for present purposes-who are
always willing to receive something
equally a good. Said President Nc
Kinley. in his recent Atlanta speech:
The time has now come in the evolu-
tion Of sentiment M feeling under the
providence of God. when in the spirit of
fraternity we should share with you in
the care Of the graves of the c%onfeder-
ate soldiers" This remark the presi-
dent made on the occasion OF his first
visit to Atlanta since his arrival there
several years ago. IN horseback. as n
uniformed officer in Sherman's COM
mand.
President Mckinley was out on an
old-fashioned political junket during
his recent swing around the southern
circle-his proposition In, In anticipa-
ton of 1900. TO max himself solid with
the constituencies below the Mason and
Dixon line. His remarks were well
enough: they warmed the southern
heart: there are millions of citizens in
the North who respond to the sentiment
announced I'm Atlanta.
Only, the president himself has
opened the way for certain things that
are sure TO happen. and IL will be in
teresting TO see how he Ia
deal with them. This generations heri-
tage from rebellion days included the
living as well as the dead. We have

Grams. the South's war widows, the
civil wars orphans. The question that
at ono suggests itself is whether our
duty TO the dead is of a higher order
than our obligation toward the living.

Mr. Dubois was one OF the men who

The silver republicans in that state
were not a decisive factor. and. in the

u T one time the foes OF Senator
! Quay flattered themselves that
they could shut him out of the
senate by fusing the vote of the demo-
Gratis and the anti-Quay members in
the Pennsylvania legislature. Accord

not in a promising way. In order to
contribute something toward prevent
ing this fusion of forces, the Quay peo-
pie are letting the word get abroad
that IL there is found to be no chance

and elect a democrat rather than per-
init any anti-Quay man to have the

the play serves its purpose by blockad-
