STANDING ARMY AFTER PEACE.
Chairman Hull, OF the House military
affairs committee, thinks a standing army
OF 100000 men will be necessary after
peace is brought about. The status of the
regular army will he one OF the important
subjects to be determined by the next
session of Congress, and during the re-
cess Mr. Hull will frame measure for
submission to his committee as soon as it
meets in December.
Congressman Hull thought when the
army reorganization bill passed last
session that $4,000 men would be the
proper number for the standing army of
the future, but within the last three
months conditions have arisen which put
different face on the situation. Troops
will be needed in Cuba, Porto Pico and
the Philippines, and Congressman Hull
doubts If $4,000 will be enough. In his
opinion 100 900 regulars will be needed for
some time to come.

CAUSE OF suNsTRoKr.

Sunstroke. happily. is not an afTlic-
vallies of Utah. Yet, as summer is close
at hand and the indications are in ia
vor OF a long and warm season. 1t Is in,
teresting to notice that Il new theory
as to the cause Of that often fatal dis
ease has been advanced by competent
authority. Dr. sambon in the British
Medical and Surgical Journal contends
that siriasis, or heat stroke, Is an infec-
ton; that 1t is produced by a germ
which needs great heat for develop
ment. 1t is a disease belonging, he
says. to the same class as yellow fever
and other tropical affections now gem
orally believed to depend on specific
germs for whose growth and transmits
sion from man to man high tempera-
ture is needed.
There seems to be tendency among
pathologists to ascribe very nearly all
ailments to which the human body is
subject to the presence of germs. 1t is
the observation that sunstroke liz un-
known in many OF the hottest parts of
the earth and that the disease where 1t
Is endemic does by no means oc-
cur with the greatest frequency dur
season of the year, that has led DR..
Sambon to his theory that germs are
responsible for it, and his argument
cannot fail to attract widespread at
tentlon.

ONCE of the First Presidency of the
Church OF Jesus Christ OF Latter
day Saints.
Salt Lake City, Utah.
April rs, 1895.
Hon. Heber NJ. Wells, Governor of the
State of Utah:
much interest your proclamation to the
people of our State. in which you call,
In response to the proclamation of the
President of the United States, for the
enlistment of 500 men to furnish Utah
quota of the 125,0O0 volunteers called
for by the President to serve in the
army of the United States for two
years
The people whom we represent are
lovers of peace. and would do anything
in their power, consistent with honor
and the patriotic duty which every citi-
zen owes to his country, to avert war
and it's dreadful train OF consequences.
Because OF this feeling we have been
led to admire the course which has
been taken by President Mckinley
throughout this Spanish imbrogio. and
we have hoped that his efforts to pre-
serve peace between the two countries
would result in success.
But war has been declared, and we
have It to meet. Our citizens are called
upon TO enlist. and Utah is asked to
furnish cavalry and batteries of artil-
lery approximating 600 men.
We trust that the citizens of Utah
who are Latter-day Saints will be
found ready to respond with aiacrity
to this call which is made upon our
State. There was n time In the past
when we were called upon, as n re-
ligious organization, to make far
greater sacrifice than this. under cir
cumstances that We're exceedingly
painful. Then there was no hesita-
tom; but upwards OF one-thrd of the
men of suitable age formed battai-
lon of 500. left the camp and vol
unteered to take part In the Mexican
war. In like manner there should be
no hesitation now; and we sincerely
trust that your recruiting officers will
find our co-religionsts as ready now
to enlist and march TO the defense of
their country as their fathers were in
the days to which we refer.
Trusting that you will be eminently
successful in raising Utah's proper
quota of volunteers, and praying that
the Almighty will protect our nation In
the hour Of trial and assist us in our
battles for humanity and right, we
remain. Very respectfully.
