LIKE the shots fired at Bunker Hill,
the shots that we're fred from American
vessels last Sunday in Manila har-
Dor were heard around the world. They
meant the avenging of the treachery
and the crime, committed by Spain, in
destroying the Maine and numbering
266 American officers and men and they
mean the freedom of long oppressed
and cruelty ruined Cuba.

This Comparison Used by Lieutenant

of State Militia,

Lieutenant George 3. Duncan. q. S. A.,
appears I'm the North American Review in
favor of an increase in the standing army.
lie says:
Everyone knows that there is a great
attraction in the states militia for young
men who are physically benefited by the
drill. who enjoy the wearing Of uniform,
and the local prestige of this sort of serv-
ice. The company is not unlike a local
athletic club, whose president is the cap
tain: the personnel is of high order. and all
are upon terms Of more or less intimacy:
q captain thinks he knows quite as much
Of military affairs as the colonel whom he
may have helped to elect. AL look forward
TO the summer camp as an outing and a re-
creation from the cares OF business; in
some states an encampment partakes of
the nature Of frolic or picnic, with sweet
hearts and wives in constant attendance.
Competition in drill has given the MILL
tia very good execution of the manual.
FAIR alignment and step In marching. If
an insurrection occur within their state,
and against mob violence they will do
their best in behalf of law and order. But
the fact remains that these men enlist for
recreation and pleasure and the physical
advantage OF military exercises. To be
suddenly summoned to battle would entail
great hardship and suffering. and TO pit
them against experienced regular troops
whose entire life has been given 10 prepa-
ration for such action, would be almost
murderous. The victory in future battles
must be with the force having the best
controlled and most accurate fire action.

troops would necessitate needless waste

be but sacrifices upon the altar of the un-
fortunate military policy"

some merit.
1T is fact admitted by everybody"
says he, that new members of the legis-
iature are often at loss to know exactly
wat to do when important measures
about which they are not fully informed
come UP for consideration. My plan, and
L think it is a good one, will remedy this
matter. 1t Is to divide the session. Say
have thirty days session in December
All measures could be introduced then and
referred TO the proper committees. Then
take recess for fifteen or twenty days
and afterwards hold the remainder of the
session. This would give the new MEM
ber3 an Opportunity TO learn the ways Of
the Do1y during the first part of the ses-
slon- Ihey could 20 home during the re-
cess, take the printed bills with them and
give them thought. They could also find
OUT what the sentiment of their constit-
uents vas on various measures Of imDort-
ahce Ihey would then be away from the
tempting Influences of the lobby and would
be free to make up their minds as 10 what
would be to the best interests of the peo-
pie they represent. OF course this plan

MAY BE FUSION IN THIRD.
Democratic and PopuIixt Congress
siOnnl Committees Hold Meet
fpgs ut CherPyyaIe

Independence, Kas.. April 10.-(Special)
The Democratic congressional committee
OF the Third district met in Cherryvale
yesterday and selected Chanute as the
place for holding their convention. but no
date was fixed. The Populist central COM
mittee met in Cherryvale at the same time
and decided to hold their convention at
that place on June s. The fact that both
the central committees met at the same
place and at the same time carries with
II the impression that a fusion may be
effected. This fact IS strengthened by the
Democrats leaving their convention date
blank. probably in order to see what the
Populists are willing to do before they
take any action. 1t is thought that z. r.
RiGgley. the present congressman from the
Third district, will be nominated by the
Populists and indorsed by the Democrats.
If nc fusion is effected the Republicans
they fuse against the Republicans the
race will be close.
