THE GREAT GRIEF OF 1T.

The great grief of Mr. Evanss course is
that the veterans and their widows are all SO
much nearer the grave than they were when he
began following up Lochren's saving policy.
The march Of disease and disability upon
their enfeebled frames is inconceivably more
rapid. Every day adds to their distress and
their need. Ten years ago they could bear
with some patience a Commissioners per-
verseness his pettifogging technicalities, his
heart breaking delays. They would console
themselves as they did through Lochrens
regime by looking forward to a time when a
change would be made. But now the dark
clouds OF despair settle down deeper and deeper
on their narrowing horizon. Thousands of
them see the grave much nearer them than
they do any hope of relief from his persecu-
TONS
Years hence, when the country is ringing
with the praises of the men who saved the
Nation at such fearful expense to themselves,
when the great story of the war will be fully
known, and people will be pondering with
rapt interest over the history of the gigantic,
awful battles the terrible marches, the inces
SAINT bitter fighting, when every man and
woman in it will pulsate with pride at the
thought that they have some distant connec-
ton with such race Of heroes of purest mettle,
iou lists and historians will go to the Pen
sion Bureau, and pore over its musty files, and
study with indignant amazement the name of
Henry Clay Evans appended to thousands OF
petty, nagging frivolously cruel letters ad-
dressed to the men who had borne the heat and
burden of the battle, and they will ask the
sorrowful country with blazing anger:
aWho was this small, obscure politician,
without previous record or subsequent achieve
ment who was allowed to fret insult and de-
fraud these glorious men through term Of
years? Why was he dragged out of nowhere
to haggle and chatter with them as to petty
dollars for their heroic wounds and then
suffered to fall back into oblivion after he had
completed his ignoble work? What could
our fathers be thinking of that they should
employ such an agent to grudgingly dole out
or cunningly deny the bcggarly need which
these broken men and women needed to soothe
their last days? Let us pillory in eternal
ignominy this man who employed the methods
OF the huckster in dealing with our valiant
fathers, who bought all that We now enjoy
with the rich cost of their hearts blood2"
Then EvansS savings" will be looked upon
as contemplate trafficking with holy graft
tude. He will be very lucky if he can be
forgotten.

THE contention of the British and Ameri.
can delegates to the Peace Congress for tho
privilege of using dum-dum bullets against
savage and semisavage enemies recalls ths
ancient regulation that square bullets might
be used against the Turks, but only round
bullets against Christian enemies. The
trouble is that the small caliber bullets now
used have but little stopping power. A
man may be hit one or more times by them in
various parts Of his body, and not be con-
scious at the time that he is severely hurt.
and go on fighting. The dunn bullets bunch
up on striking anything, and effectualiy
knock a man out, no matter where they hit
him. But they also tear great wound,
where the ordinary bullet merely bores littlt
hole.

THE troops at Manila certainly display
amazing fortitude Practically every man in
the volunteers has been under fire almost con-
tinuollsly since the 4th of February, and in
addition to constant fighting, has never had a
moments freedom from anxiety as to possible
manuvers of skulking willy foes, who knew
every inch OF the country, and how to take
advantage of its possibilities. Then there
have been exhausting marches under fierce
suns, and over the worst possible country,
multitudinous insect pests, and other annoy
anccs of the tropics. The lines have been SO
long that it was necessary to keep every rcgi-
mcnt at the front, and there was no oppor-
tunity to allow any one TO go to the rear and
rest awhile. The Regulars have very nearly
the same experience, but not quite SO much Of
it, as the volunteers were first on the ground
and took the advance in the fighting. A large
portion OF the Regulars did not arrive in Ma
Mia for some weeks after the operations began
If the campaign has demonstrated nothing
else it has shown marvellous staying powers
Of our volunteers suddenly transferred to tn,
tropics. They have made record no
elualled we are sure by those Of any othe
civilized power in military operations in coun
tries near the equator. We can proudly
point to what our freshly levied volunteer:
have DONE and challenge comparison with any
achievements under the same conditions by
the best British, French, Dutch, Spanish o
Portuguese troops.

COMMISSIONER EVANS seems entirely un-
able to make statement that is not at once
successfully contradicted. He has been as
serting that the delay in settling claims arising
out of the Spanish war, was caused by his in
ability to get the required information as to
the claimants military history from the
Record and Pension Division of the War De,
partment but Gen. Ainsworth, the head ef
that Division, answers that he can furnish any
information within "a hours.

IT was great omission on the part of the
Gar not to invite the heads of families in the
Kentucky mountains to his disarmament
congress. They are on a better war footing
down there than any country in Europe, and
all that is necessary to bring on active hos
tilities is the opening Of the Common Pleas
Court.

THE revenues Of all our possessions arc
much in excess Of expenditures. There will
be an equalization soon. The islands will be
required to bear the expense of military occu-
patton and administration, after things get
quieted down. This will be compensated for
by the reduction Of unnecessary expenses in
other ways-particularly in the abolition Of
superlluous Offices. On the whole, their bur.
denS Of taxation will be greatly reduced.

IT is not natural that the agriculturists in
Germany or anywhere else in Europe should

LAST week the political storm center ex-
tended from Michigan to Washington. An
alliance was announced between Secretary
Alger and Gov Pingree of Michigan, having
reference to securing Senator McMillan's seat
for the Secretary. Senator McMillan's term
will expire March 3, 1901. 1t was at once
assumed that Secretary Alger would promptly
leave the Cabinet, and gossips asserted that
ambassador Horace Porter would be recalled
from Paris to succeed him. But on Secretary
Alger's return to Washington he announced
his purpose to remain in the Cabinet, and de-
clared that Gov. Pingree was firm supporter
of President Mckinley. Gov Pingree has
come out in statement that the Secretary
must have spoken unadvisedly. If the Presi-
dent is against expansion, trusts, monopolies
aid Mark Hanna then he, Pingree, is with him.
If not, he is not. The situation will probably
become more mixed before it is clearer.

France is that it reveals that they have Sun

be much decency in a country where they

He ordered him to be taken to the Sisters hoSpi-al and Immediately operated upon him.

 DEBARRED FROM BONDING. - School district No 50, the latest formed district in the county, has found it necessary to resort to an un- usual proceeding to obtain a school house. This district, known IS the Rarig district. was carved out of the Lehi and Tempe districts, both Of which are already bonded So when the trustees of the new district ap- piled to the board % supervisors for permission to bond Rr the purpose of building a school house their re- quest was refused. They have GTscov- cred that under a section of the school law in which, however, such sitUa- ton was not probably contemplated, they may vote a special tax for build ing. This law was intended to enable districts not otherwise provided with funds to levy tax for holding eight months of school in the year and for the building and maintenance of school house. This IS the frs case on record in this county in which a district has been debarred from bond ing by reason of having been formed out of bonded territory.

it, for its constant repetition has en-

time when he was very much younger.

six months old his nurse entered his
