Gen. Merritt does not propose to be
made the butt of "Gen." Ayers spite.
He goes back to New York from con-
ference at Washington with the war
secretary. and gives it out plainly that
he will not go to the Philippines if he
is to have no greater or more seasoned
force than is assigned to the expedi-
ton. He is, after Miles, the senior
major general in the service. BY virtue
Of his rank, as we'll as his ability. he
is entitled to command the 10000 troops
going to Cuba. Instead, Alger would
post him off to the Philippines in COM
mand Of the 5000 green troors ordered
there to occupy country having six
million population and held by a Span
ish force outnumbering his own, there
to serve in the double capacity Of milf
tary commander and military governor.
And all merely to .get even" with
Merritt for having reported Alger alb
sent without leave in 1864 and recon-
mending his dismissal from the service
1T Is an act quite up to Ayers size.
this use Of power to avenge himself
we venture the prediction that Gen"
Aiger will not succeed; that, if Merritt
goes to the Philippines, it will be at
the head of an army commensurate
with his job and his rank.

To the Pioneer Press.


From Yesterdays Minneapolis Times.
You claim to have circulation of approx
mately 10000 Certain envIous contemporaries
and the general public will not believe it.
Even the Times has to swallow hard to get it
down. Convince them all. There Is COM
pany in Chicago styled the Advertisers
Guarantee company. Its business is to ex-
anime the. circulation of newspapers and
guarantee its findings Its plan and its
work have been Endorsed by some of
the best publishers in the country. It's fee
is $40 year for each thousand of actual paid
circulation. -
If your circulation is as large as you calm
the fee would amount to $500 year. This
fee covers an examination each month, the
issue Of a certificate Of examination each
time and the mailing each month of your
guaranteed circulation to over 1900 general
advertisers. Apply for an examination, es-
teemed contemporary. The findings of this
company will not be questioned even by the
inquisitive and carping general advertiser
And in order that the expense may not de-
ter you the Times will make you the follow
ing proposition: If you will make application
to the Advertisers Guarantee company for
an examination of your circulation for the
month of May, for instance. and will permit
the examination, the Times will pay your
Zee Tor year, provided the actual circulation
thus determined comes within 1900 of that
of the Times for the same period. OF course
you know that this company does not count
free papers sent to telegraph operators In
six states nor free copies to alleged COR
respondents at every cross road in the Same
territory nor papers distributed gratuftously
all over Minneapolis, nor any papers, in fact
except those actually subscribed and paid for
You are also what is called a two-cent
paper esteemed contemporary. The Times is
a one-cent paper. The Times will further
donate $500 worth of space at card rates to
any advertiser designated by you in your
city or in Minneapolis, if the examination of
the Advertisers Guarantee company discloses
a total income from circulation within 81, 900
a month of that derived by the Times from
the same source. That is a pretty stiff
proposition for one-cent paper to make to
another, oldest and best that you are, espe-
cially when the other claims a circulation
LOCO or 1900 in excess Of the former, but 1t
goes, esteemed contemporary-it goes.

In esta bliSnfng strict censorship Of
the news relating to the movement CT
our squadrons the navy department is
doing tardily what it should have done
Immediately upon the signing Of TIE
war resolution by the president. Nat
urally everybody wanted to know all
that was being done, and, naturally,
the agents Of the press sought to sup
ply it. The yellow journals. feeding on
the public hunger for news, manufac-
tured news where the real article was
wanting, and fattened their purses by
it. The public could not distinguish
between the fake and the real. Papers
that tried to get only the news and
would not prostitute their columns TO
fakes suffered from this undiscrim-
mating appetite for news. Meantime
the enemy were gratuitously Informed
Of our every movement. Usually such
information is obtained at great cost:
our careless methods gave it to the
Spaniards without price War time Is
not peace time; it's conditions are
radically different. The publicity that
is nations safety in peace becomes
its danger in war. The success of
campaign may depend wholly upon the
secrecy of its movements. 1t Is right,
as it is necessftous, that such news be
withheld from the public 1t needed
the sudden, unannounced descent #
Cervera upon the lesser Antilles, at a
date when he was supposed to- be in
Cadiz, to wake the department to the
need Of a suppression of information
relative to the movements of our fleets,

some it is regarded as a dish that must

its only value Is it's contribution to his

say the women, for while men are in
the organization. the society was
brought about and it's modus operandi

did they learn to do things decently
