the Convention of lISl is used-'nationaF
defense. 1t passed the House and Senate
ard went to the President and received
his approval, and no word of protest was
uttered by Democrat or Republican. Ii
is not surprising that no Republican pro-
tested, for it is and has been the policy
of the Republican party TO ''nationaliZeI
the Government of the United States ever
since it came into power. In fact, the
effort dates back to Hamilton and his CO.
adjutors. who were untiring advocates
of a centralized government But surely
some Democrat ought to have at least
proposed that the language OF the Con-
stitution be used at this important juno
ture.
The preamble to the Constitution con-
tains these words germane TO this sub
ject: Provide for the common defence.
Jeremy Bentham, discussing words and
their use, says: In a moral or a play
a word is but word, and its wrong use
is attended with no serious consequences.
But in a law. and especially laws that are
constitutional. a wrong word is a calam-
ity; for out of a single word may start
a thousand daSgers.
The trainers of the Constitution made
no mistake when they used the words
Common defence" They had known and
felt the burdens and evils of English pa
ternaIism and nationalism. They had al
ready rejected the words nation" and
national"
Did Mr.. Cannon know that the word
national had been rejected by the franz
ers of the Constitution, and did he use
the words national defence" knowingly
and with the design TO familiarize the
people with the use of wrong words? 1t
would have been just as easy to have
used the language of the Constitution.

The work of the Army and Navy De-
fense Board Of preparing campaign plans
is being carried on with much secrecy.
IT is learned on excellent authority how
ever, that the present plans propose the
landing Of an army Of invasion in Cuba
early in the coming conflict
The troops Of the regular army will be
ordered TO general rendezvous at Chick
amauga National Park where they will
there undergo thorough drill and from
the force thus concentrated will be Sc
lected the regiments considered to be best
adapted TO do effective work in Cuba All
regular troops are fitted for this service.
The National Guards are being sub
Jected TO thorough inspections to deter
mine their efficiency. It is the intention
TO utilize as many colored soldiers as pos
sible- both regulars and militia, on ac-
count Of their immunity from the evil
effects of the Cuban climate. After the
picked troops have been finally selected
they VIII be drilled as . homogeneous or
eanizauon, and the plans for moving on
Havana viii be carried into effect.
The next order TO the troops will be for
q general movement for active service in
the South and on the coast. They will
probably be issued tonight or as soon
as the Presidents message to Congress
has had the effect Of deciding the posi-
uon Of this country in the crisis The
troops are ready, however. 10 move i'm
mediately should conditions demand
The troops east of Denver are fully
prepared TO move in any direction at an
hours notice. Cooperation by the Cuban
insurgents is anticipated. This is not
relied upon as a necessary element in
the plan Of the campaign.
The question has been asked which will
be the first States called upon to fur
nish troops TO cooperate with those of
the Army in the event Of war The Dis
tr1ct troops. being under the direct order
OF the President will. II is understood. be
called first The next. according to best
available information. will be those of
New York. Ohio, Pennsylvania. Illinois
ana Massachusetts. They are regarded
as being the best equipped for Dronpt
service The entire force from these
States would aggregate S, ,577 officers and
men These troops viii be armed with
Winchester and Lee -Metford rifles of 30
caliber. This force may be concentra ted
with the regular troops for service in
Cuba. and with some of the Southern
States colored troops. The National

The decision TO rendezvous the army AZ
Chickamauga was reached by the War
Department last Monday Brig. Gen.
Graham, commanding the Department OF
the South, was requested by the Secre-
tary OF War TO secure suitable camping
grounds for troops in the South. and the
decision OF the department was in accord
ance with Gen Graham's recommends

Guns AND AMMUNITION
Large Consignment of Material

WAR SUPPLIES FROM ABROAD
Imported Rapid Fire Rifles and Ma
chine Guns With Carriages and
Fittings to Strengthen FOrtifica-
tiOns Artillery Experts Speak
Highly Of Their Efficiency.

New York. April 1O.-The Cunard liner
Etruria, which reached her dock this
morning brought over a cargo of fifty-five
cases of rapid-fire rifles and machine guns
and a large quantity of smokeless powder,
consigned from Armstrong & Co, to Bar
ing Brothers & Co, of this city. With
the guns were their carriages and fittings.
This news will be welcome to the War
Department. The guns were all purchased
from the Armstrong;. Twelve of them
were manufactured for the Brazilian gov
ernment, which released the Armstrong;
from their contract that our Government
might have them. In all forty-siX were
purchased, but it has been supposed that
only thirty-four were to be shipped in the
first consignment. The total weight of all
the guns purchased is over 100000 pounds
While no definite information could be OBJ
tained today as to the number of guns the
Etruria brought over, it is believed that
she brought the whole forty-six.
The guns are unlike anything made in
this country. For that reason the ammu-
milton for them was bought on the other
side. The rapid-fire guns are all Maxim
and Nordenfeldt rifles. and are to be used
for coast defense, The machine guns it
is said, are to be mounted in some of
the ships of the navy. The mounting of
the coast defense guns will be proceeded
with with all speed.
1t was learned today that guns, two to
fortifcation, will be mounted at some
of the New York harbOr forts and at
the fortifications at Gull Island, at the
eastern entrance to Long Island Sound,
at Boston. New York Fort Monroe, Key
West, Portland, Me; Portsmouth. n H.;
Philadelphia, Fort McHenry, Baltimore,
Wilmington n. c.: Charleston, Savannah,
Pensacola, Mobile, New Orleans and CAL
weston.
These rapid-fire guns are held in high
favor by artillery experts both on ac-
count of their efficiency and the Gompar-
ative small cost of discharging.
1t was said at Governors Island today
that on account of the work that has been
done on the emplacements in anticipation
of the arrival of the guns, the guns can
be mounted in a little less than a week
after they are delivered at the fortifica-
tionS.

To the Editor OF The Times;
The almost universal use of the words
nation and national" when referring
to the Government of the United States,
shows how far we have got away from
the Constitution as framed by the con
vention of 1887.
In the draft of the Constitution submit
ted by Edmund Randolph, of Virginia,
which was in the main adopted, the words
nation" and national government
were of frequent occurrence. On motion
of Oliver Ellsworth. of Connecticut these
words were stricken out wherever they
occurred and the words Government of
the United States. this Union and the
Union" substituted. For a brief and con-
else discussion OF this see John w Over
airs ''Catechism of the Constitution of the
United States of America. paga II, ct seq.

Father Chadwick, chaplain of the bat
tleship Maine. to postpone his departure
for Key West until this morning attract
ed large congregation to the early mass
at St Stephens Church, in East Twenty
eighth Street. 1t was his plan originally
TO be present both at the high mass at
IL o'clock and also at the vesper service

requesting him to join the Cincinnati at
Key West. changed his plans. and he
concluded to start last night
The disappointment his absence would
have caused induced him to postpone his
departure until after the o'clock mass.
This mass is generally we'll attended on
Easter Sunday, but the crowd that as
sembled today was unusually large The
people filled all the aisles of the church
and il is estimated that more than 300

and preached a short sermon on the
joyful Easter, after which he admins

THE CHEERFUL IDIOT.

Once upon time-that's the proper way

the way of asininity, 1 believe-there was
an ailelC.rd man named Willie. Willie had
another name, but if anyone knew it. it
was not used. Willie was also vii

and when he came as near to years of dis
cretion as he probably ever would get.

SCISSOR Of the aforesaid expression, he be-
gan to break in his new 81 styIograph pen
0ikewise bought by papa by writing an
alleged editorial which he promptly
headed, Our Valedictory." The copy

scandal of the foreman who, being a

fourteen thousand pieces of 'Di'' into

which that apt Sunday school scholar
gave utterance.

paper? you ask Wen. nothing particu-
