they lost the game and the score really
ought to be 0 for the Fort Collins team.
The game was closely contested from
the start, the visitors winning the toss

In the first half E. D. Macarthur, the
Laramie druggist and an expert foot
ball player, was umpire, while Mr..

downed by Brees. The two teams then
lined up for earnest playing. Newell,
the captain who played left end, made
two yards through left tackle, c.
Emigh, left half back, followed with s
yards through Laramie's line and was
downed by Pointing. Greenacre, the
big full-back, hit the line: for only 3
yards: the two other backs each tried
it and made 2 yards each, and then Col
and Laramie got the ball on her 25
yard line; Houston, right half back

ONLY LEADER NEEDED.

The thought is thrown out by some OF
those who are apparently well acquainted
with the situation in France that it would
ne an easy matter at this time TO over
throw the republic There is a feeling
of unrest among the people, caused large
~ by the developments in the Dreyfus
case. The people do not feel sure that
the members of the government and the
officers Of the army are free from corrup-
ton. and this lack of confidence in those
occupying positions of great public trust
makes the people dissatisfied aud ready
for a change.
If a strong man, having the confidence
Of the public, had attempted to place
himself at the head OF affairs immedi-
ately after the announcement of the
death of President Faure ii is not at al
improbable that he would have succeeded.
But there was no such man, and there
Is every reason to think that a new Pres
ident viii be elected to-day, and that the
government will run along as smoothly
as if the head of the government had not
been called away from his post of duty
by death with scarcely a moments warn
ing.
For the belief that corruption permeates
the army and all branches of the govern
ment the various phases of the Dreyfus
case is largely responsible. And there
have been many instances of corruption
in government circles in France in re-
cent years. The love of the people for
the republic therefore has been greatly
weakened. Corrupt practices of high gov
eminent officials for which no punish
ment is meted out will break down the
strongest government in the course of a
very short time.
1t is said TO President Faure's credit
that ne passed through his public career
without his honesty ever having been
questioned. This is regarded as so re-
markable in France that the public prints
in their eulogies OF him call especial at
tention to ii. But they do not deal with
him so kindly in some other respects.
They ridicule in a mild way his love OF
official forms and display. He was a
great stickler for the dignity of his Of
flee. Apparently he appreciated a per
sonal letter from the Gear more highly
than the applause of all the people OF
France.
Still he made a very respectable Chief
Executive. 1t may be that he lacked force
OF character and the ability to inspire
the people with respect for those homely
virtues which are the real basis of a Wig
ana
lest of his ability he strove to do wha,
he thought was for the best interests
OF his country. He will be given credit
for good intentions if for nothing more
by the historian Of his times.

WILL THEY BE sUCCEssFULs

The fight which the friends of the Near
aqua canal bill are making for that meas
ure is exciting lively interest The uues-
ton, VIII they succeed in getting the bill
through this Congress? is being very gen.
orally discussed. In the House MIR. Hen
burn has adopted new tactics to have il
made an amendment to the sundry civil
bill, and in the Senate Senator Morgan
has apparently abandoned his own bill
with the hope of having the Hepburn bill
passed. He has moved that the Hepburn
bill be made a rider on the river and mar
Dor bill.
Ii is doubtful, however il any of these
efforts will be successful. The Republi-
can leaders are not yet ready to have a
want TO take the responsibility for that
measure until it is shown pretty clearly
that the canal can be built for somewhere
near the amount for which the estimates
eall. Again, they don't want 10 appro-
pirate any money for 1t at this session
This Congress has already appropriated
at least a third more money than any
propriated a billion dollars was condemn
ed from one end of the country TO the
other Many men who were members Of
that Congress were retired to obscurity
by indignant constituents.
This Congress has appropriated. or pro-
pared appropriation bills which carry
$1,537 100000. The Democrats will want no
better campaign material than those fig
ures afford II is not to be wondered at
that the Republican leaders are against
an appropriation at this time for a Near
aqua canal. The argument that if this
Congress does not authorize the construc-
ton of the canal the grand children of The
present generation will not see the canal
constructed is not a good one. If this Con-
sress fails 10 pass the canal bill il doesn't
follow that the next Congress will not
pass it. The demand for the canal is too
sreat to permit its construction to be de-
layed much longer.

THE COCKRELL AMENDMENT

The wisdom of the amendment which
Senator Cockrell has offered to the army
reorganization bin is ques tionable. 1t is
in substance that the present law an
thorlzing an increase in the army to 60 900
men, shall remain in force until 1901, and
that the President be authorized to re-
cruit $4,000 men in Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Philippines for duty in those islands.
the new recruits to be differed by Ameri-
cans.
The objection to this plan at least one
objeetion-is that it is not by any means
certain that native soldiers could be de-
pended upon to be loyal to the United
States. Suppose our whole force in Cuba
were to consist of Cubans under Ameri-
can officers, and there should be a re-
volt there against our authority, could
the native soldiers be depended upon to
stand by the American flag? They might
remain loyal and fight valiantly for our
cause, but it is not certain they would
Being well equipped with arms furnished
by our government, they might give us
great deal of trouble. And the Fill
pinos would be much less likely to remain
true to our government in an emergency
than the Cubans. because they are only
partly civilized.
Ii is true that the natives of India
make good British soldiers, but Great
Britain did not place any reliance upon
them until her rule in that land was well
established. And there have been in
stances in which the native soldiers turn
ed against the government they had sworn
TO serve. The time may come when we
can use native soldiers in all of the possess
sions which we have acquired from Spain,
but for the present it would be a grave
mistake to place our interests in their
hands. There are plenty of Americans
10 be had for soldiers, and the cost of
them is not greater than the cost of SOL
diers enlisted in the islands would be.
1t is true that native soldiers are better
able to stand the climate than Americans
are, but it is probable that before the
sickly season comes in the West Indies
and the Philippines the condition of at
fairs will be such that it will be possible
TO send our soldiers to healthy camp
sites in the islands. The proposition to
recruit our army from among Cubans
and Filpinos before these people are in
sympathy with our efforts for their bene-
tit is certainly not one that is entitled to
serious consideration.
