SOMETHING ABOUT WAR TAXES.
Probable That They VIII Stay With
Us for. rIany Years to Come.

Us for rIany Years to Come.
Some over-confident people are
making the assertion these day:
that the country will not for lons
submit to the present stamp du.
ties and other war taxes in time
Of peace. The probabilities, on
the other hand, are that these wal
taxes have come to stay for many
years to come.
There has been an annual deficit
in our treasury operations for sew
eral years past. Under the Will
son bill this deficit was smaller
than under the Mckinley bill. 1t
was smaller under the last year of
the Wilson bill than under the
first year of that measure. When
this Democratic tariff cut was
passed, however, it contained an
income tax feature that was con-
fidently expected to bring in re-
venue anywhere from 100000
to $50, 900, 900 per annum. If the
supreme court had allowed that
income tax to stand the Wilson
bill would, after the first year,
have produced a surplus rather
than a deficit.
The Dingley bill has not only
not remedied matters, but it has
caused deficit twice the size of
the shortageSin revenue under its
predecessor. The high tariff pol
icy of the Republicans absolutely
requires some supplemental or adj
ditional revenue source to prevent
national bankruptcy. The income
tax would go far. toward giving re-
lief, and would at least obviate
the necessity for vexatious stamp
taxes, but the Republicans will
not listen to any proposition look
ing to the. taxing of the big in
comes in this country. 1t is all
we'll enough for the European mo-
marches make the millionaires pay
tribute in this way to the burden
of government but, say the Repub.
licans, in this great and glorious
republic we will make the poor
man carry the heavier end of the
the load.
Government expenses, however
must be met in some way, anC
they are becoming greater year by
year. With the deficit under or.
dinary measures, we are piling ur
debt at the rate of from $50, 900
900 to $50, 90, 900 a year, and the
party in power is now preparing,
through its expansion scheme, tc
add other $50, 900, 900 or 500, 600
600 to the annual outlay. How
can we escape war tax, therefore
under the Republican economic
policies? The war taxes only
will enable the party to pull out OF
the hole. So long as the Demo
cratic suggestions for raising re-
venue are.ignored, there is no pos
sible escape from war taxes-ex
cept by reputation or the credit
system, neither of which policies
could the government lopt.

In the pleasant days Of old the cav.
airy was the most important factor in
warfare. The knights composing this
branch of the military, incased in ar
NOR, went forth to fight against bare
legged peasants, poorly armed and on
foot. These they would spit" on their
lance point after the gallant medieval
fashion of the times. 1t was harmless
sort of sport for the knight. and unless
he came against some other knight his
chance of getting hurt was very little.
That foot soldiers could survive the
shock Of heavy cavalry, weighed down
as it was with boiler plate, was thought
utterly impossible until the fifteenth
century, when the mountaineers Of
Switzerland astonished men grown old
in camps by sustaining the dreaded
shock on their pixies. This demonstra-
ton of what infantry might do, and the
introduction of gunpowder, brought
the cavalry into neglect. Indeed, the
cavalry had SO degenerated by the be-
ginning of the seventeenth century as
to be a ponderous, inactive body.
Charges at speed were unknown to it.
Reliance was placed on the musket and
pistol instead of the sword.
1t was Gustavus Adolphus, the great
Swedish king and hero, who took this
unwieldy body and impaired to it that
dash and go which to-day gives the
cavalryman his air of romance.
One of the most famous cavalry
charges made by that leader was at
Lutzen, in 1852, where he met his death.
The Swedish army, 10000 strong, was
ranged in two lines; the infantry held
the center. while the cavalry was post

A NOTE OF WARNING.
Maj. Gen. Miles Issues a, Order
Against Intoxicants.
Says Commanding officers Must OBJ
serve Effects Carefully and Re-
strict Entirely, If Necessary,
the Use of Wine and Beer.

Mai. Gen. Miles has issued the fol-
lowing general order to the army:
THE army is engaged in active serv-
ice under climatic conditions which it
has not before experienced.
'In order that it may perform it's
most difficult and laborious duties
with the least practicable loss from
sickness, the utmost care consistent
with prompt and efficient service must
be exercised by all, especially by Off
GERS.
"The history of other armies has
demonstrated that in hot climate
abstinence from the use of intoMcat-
ing drink is essential to continued
health and efficiency.
Commanding officers of all grades
and officers of the medical staff will
such light beverages-wines and beer
-as are permitted to be sold at the
post and camp exchanges, and the
commanders of all Independent COM
mands are en!oined to restrict, or to
entirely prohibit the sale of such bev-
eragcs, if the welfare of the troops
or the interests of the service require
such action.
''In this most important hour of the
nations history it is due the govern
ment from all those in it's service that
they should not only render the most
earnest efforts for it's honor and well
fare, but their full physical and intel
lectual force should be given to their
public duties. uncontaminated by any
indulgences that shall dim, stultify
weaken or impair their faculties and
strength in any particular.
"officers of every grade, by example
as well as by authority, will contrib.
ute to the enforcement of the order.
with view to avoid extreme sui.
fering among wounded horses OF
mules on the field of battle, it is here
by ordered that veterinary surgeon
or some other person detailed by the
commanding officer, will accompany
troops in an engagement whose duty
it will be to put an end to the agonies
of all horses or mules that in his iudg.
ment are suffering to a degree requir.
ing such action on his part"

A recent decision of the secretary Of
war CONSTITUTES existing law SO as to
provide that regular army officers may
now sit on court-martial for the trial
of volunteer officers or soldiers.
Secretary .Mger has approved a rec
concentration of the surgeon general
of the army that physicians appointed
by governor of a state to fill va
cancies in regiments should be ex-
amined by a board of three physicians
appointed by the governor and with
out expense to the United States. The
certificate of this board that the
candidate had passed satisfactory
physical and professional examination
will be accepted by the war depart
ment as evidence of his fitness for the

lows eat us up?" he asked. He then
ordered his great cavalry chief to
gather the chasseurs, the dragons and
with 80 squadrons.
Murat collected his force. Grouchy's
dragons charged first to clear the field
Of the enemy's cavalry. Gen. d.Iaut-
poul followed with "a squadrons of cui-
rassiers, and after him came the whole
swarming mass of French horse. The
cuirassiers launched themselves on the
Russian bayonets, but the stohd le-
gions of the car withstood the shock.
Again and again the French recoiled
from the iron wall. AT length their
stubborn antagonists gave ground at
one point, making breach through
which the cuirassiers and Dragons
strove to be first to pass. Once back Of
the first line the rest came naturally.
The overthrow of the Russian regi-
ments followed, and then the horse
scattered to slaughter. The Russians
still fought in squads and companies,
and amongst them the cavalry rode on
all sides. To add to the horror OF this
charge the Russians trained their artii-
lery on their own soldiers and on the
French, firing blindly and seemingly
not caring whether friends or foes went
down.
Gen. Kellermann's charge at Ma
rengo was equally remarkable. He had
received orders to attack the Austrian
cavalry, and swept down upon it with
extraordinary yigor. 1t was dispersed,
and Kellermann threw himself on the
flank of a column of grenadiers, already
assailed in front by the French in
fantry. He split the column in two, his
dragons sabering to right and left, till
at last to save themselves from utter de-
struction the Austrians threw down
their arms and surrendered, but Keller
mann did not stop. He rushed ON the
dragons of Lichtenstein and broke
them.
At Waterloo the first charge of the
English cavalry on the French position
was gallantly made. The English troops
cut column of 5000 men literally to
! pieces and swept it from their path.
Napoleon, seeing the confusion, ordered
his cuirassiers to the attack. A des-
perate fight followed when the two
bodies of horsemen came together. AT
last the English were driven back, but
less than one-fifth of the squadron re-
gained the British lines.
OF all cavalry charges perhaps that of
the immortal 600. during the war of
the Crimea, is the most famous.
It was the result of foolish order, and
it was as unnecessary as it was heroic,
for it entailed only useless slaughter
| of brave men.
When the order came Lord Cardigan
| led his troops down the open valley,
where they were cruelty exposed to the
fire of artillery and infantry in front
| and on both tanks. Thus they were as

! tragic ride. The fire of the cannon and
