DETROIT is to try an experiment
that will be watched with interest 1t
is to purchase the street railroads, and
run them as municipal institutions.
This is said to be successfully done by
Manchester, Birmingham, and some
other English cities. On the other
hand, English people are content with
a lower grade of facilities than would
satisfy Americans. Philadelphia has
tried making gas BY municipal works.

LET THE ENCAMpMENTs SPEAK.


A most effective way of bringing to
the attention of President Mckinley
the deep dissatisfaction of the comrades
everywhere with the administration Of
the Pension Bureau by Henry Clay
Evans will be to have the Department
Encampments yet to be held make a
proper expression on the matter. This
will bring the subject before the Presi-
dent in a way that cannot help impress
ing him.
The Executive Mansion and the
office of the Secretary of the Interior
are now flooded with complaining let
tiers, but these are treated as individual
expressions. Neither the President nor
the Secretary can be aware of the wide
spread and intense feeling there is
against the present head of the Pension
Bureau and his methods. But the
action of the Departments of great
States like Ohio and oshers will bring this
matter before them in a way that they
cannot ignore, and sound note of
warning which the politicians must
heed.
Let the comrades think about this,
and act

81 Klegg and his chum Shorty, both
OF the 200th Ind, at Chickamauga engage in
fierce battle. ST and Shorty capture rebel
flag, but both fall in the melee They are
taken off the field in bad condition. Deacon
kleggg hears about it and journeys to the
hospital. He fails to be able to buy some
chickens for Sis broth On account of the
owners fear of taking U. S. money. So he
raids his roost in the darkness, drops s.
bill at the feet of the owner, and dashes
away in time to escape capture by the
Johnnies. He makes savory dish for ST and
Shorty. Foraging again he surprises and
captures 4 team containing provisions pre-
pared for the men in rebel camp by the
same people from whom he got the chickens.
Being conscientious he tries to return the
team later. Rebel artillery frightens the
horse, which demolshes the wagon. A COM
papy of Union cavalry relieves the Deacon of
the horse and gives him COW, which is
claimed rs Gen. Rosecrans's. The General
recognizes Mr.. Klegg and consents to let 81
and Shorty 90 home with him, which they
do. Shorty gets letter from q sweetheart
he has never seen. The letter is read before
the family, and makes Shorty so ashamed
that he leaves secretly to return to his regi-
ment, and wakes up at Jacksonville, Ind.

HISTORY is constantly repeating it
self. Andrew +. Lee, who is Governor
of South Dakota, has written to Presi-
dent Mckinley demanding that the
South Dakota troops, now doing such
splendid service in the Philippines, be
Immediately sent home. He says:
We view their present or future retention
rs unconstitutional and violation of the
law and against the moral sense
of the people of our State.
In November, 1913, Gov. Chittenden,
Of Vermont, who was bitter opponent
of the War of 1912, issued a proclama.
ton ordering the Vermont regiment,
then in the service of the United States,
to return home. The officers and men
told him to ego to-" and staid by
their colors, to their everlasting honor.
The South Dakota boys will doubtless
make similar reply.
The National tribune., 1899-04-20

One thing that has seriously hamper
ed our operations in the Philippines has
been absolute ignorance of the people
and their language. A few Of our Regu-
lars may have had some acquaintance
with Spanish, but none of them knew
word of the other tongues spoken in the
archipelago. This has been very seri-
Gus obstruction in gaining the informa-
ton necessary for military operations.
Every day is, however, diminishing this
impediment. We have now about 80
900 very bright young men in the
islands, who will acquire the languages
and other necessary information with
the greatest rapidity. 1t will be no
great task for any bright man to
gain a full command Of any of the
various tongues. Their vocabularies
are limited to a small number of words
relating to common, everyday things,
which present no difficulty in learning.
The National tribune., 1899-04-20

GEN. MILEs's letters to the Court of
Inquiry enables us to get pretty good
idea as to the amount of bad beef that
was issued. His circular asking for
information went out last September,
and we may be pretty certain that
every one who had any complaint to
make answered 1t. 1t went to $4,000
officers, representing 800 regiments and
other organizations, containing 268,000
men. 1t was answered by 147 officers,
representing 26 regiments, and about
10000 men. That is, only about one
man in 10 had any complaint to make.
OF course, this number will bear a great
shrinkage when it comes to careful
examination of the character and basis
of their complaints. Equally, of
course, it is too bad that even the num-
Der of well-founded complaints will be
so large. Still, it is unexpectedly smaller
than was represented. At most, not
over one man in 10 received at any
time meat of which he could complain.

Farmers Wives.

The old year has drawn TO n close
and the new year is at hand. Many of
us will resolve to do better in the fu-
ture than we have in the past. Some
of us will carry out these resolutions
and others will not. Let us all resolve
to be better men and women.
My resolution is this: "Resolved,
that we as farmers will try to make
living ON the farm easier and pleasant.
er to our wives in the future" Il think
Joe CARRIER will second it.) l observe
that whatever success we have on the
farm is largely due to Our wives. Re.

ashamed to tell her hat you think as
much of her as you ever did. II you
have forgotten this of late years try it
again and see how happy 1t will make
her to hear II.
The everlasting monotony OF indoor
| work is so tiresome. 1t is wash and
| scrub, sweep and mop, cook and patch,
and a thousand and one other things a
day. 1t is certainly discouraging to
| the farmers wives. To break this no.
notony l would suggest to the wives of
farmers around Red Cloud to form
societies or clubs of their own, and
meet alternately at the homes of its
members and take half a day off each
week, say Wednesday afternoons, at l

to get acquainted with their neighbors,
and have a good social visit, and they

encourage them in this before.

Did you say we have enough religion

at once on that subject. l would not
set myself up a standard for you to 60

But l do feel that we need a religion
that builds up in morality and virtue,
raising the tone Of the community In

Of honesty and square dealing, feeling
that every man Is a brother. We get
behind financially, and some Of us
know this from experience, and can't

This Evening Work of the Convention
VIII Conclude.

At the exhibit of the Indiana Association
of Photographers business matters and
election OF officers for the ensuing year &C.
cupied the entire forenoon yesterday. The
officers elected were:
President-C. r. Reeves. Anderson, Ind.
First Vice President-T. Il. Nicholson,
Charlottesville.
Second Vice Presidential. P. Dexheimer,
Marion.
Treasurer-F. NJ. Lacey, Indianapolis.
Secretary-W. .. Niceley, Bloomington.
One OF the matters OF interest occurring
at the morning session was the decision of
the association, after considerable discus
sion. to admit TO membership photographers
from other States. At present only limited
privileges are enjoyed by those members
outside OF Indiana, and known as associate
members" and 1t was left TO the executive
committee to decide upon what standing
such new members were to be admitted, but
II Is believed they will be entitled to prac-
tically the same status as present active
members.
In the afternoon practical demonstrations
in the working of printing papers took up
the time until about 2 o'clock, following
which was the address of W.. II. Potter, of
Indianapolis, on Art Culture" Prof. Otto
Walter Beck, with selections from the ex-
hibits, offered criticisms thereon and sug-
gestions for Improvement, and also pre-
sented many points Of interest and value
in general work.
For the evening session a social session
and entertainment by the H. Lleber Com
pany, OF Indianapolis, was on the pro-
gramme, but until the call was made for all
members TO take seats in front of the plat
form no one seemed to know what this
social session" was to be. They were
agreeably surprised and entertained by a
musical programme consisting of ten num-
bers, the appreciation OF which was shown
by the hearty applause and number of re-
calls. As the II. Lieber Company had been
bent on surprising the association. SO did
the association surprise Mr.. Robert Lieber,
who appeared as master of ceremonies"
When Mr.. Lieber announced the conclusion
Of the entertainment the association, with
a few appropriate remarks by its president,
presented him with a very fine portrait of
his father as a token of the esteem in which
he is held. To-day a paper by G.. r. Reeves,
OF Anderson, Ind, will be on the pro-
m In the afternoon the general pub
Tic, except photographers who are not
members of the association" are invited TO
visit the hall and inspect the work dis
played. In the evening will be given the re-
port OF the judges and awarding OF prizes,
which will conclude the work of the con-
vention.

OF Women yesterday. Various reports were
heard. including those of the treasurer. of
the legislative committee and one made by
Mrs. M. A. Moody. delegate to the National
Council, recently held in Washington. Mrs.
T.. c.. Day. who gave the legislative COM
mittee report. congratulated the council on
being Instrumental in having several bills
passed. Mrs. Day quoted a member OF the
Legislature. who said he thought 1t strange
that a bill which affected the rights Of
women should be or such little interest TO
them. that not one attended the Legislature
20 assist In its passage. Mrs. Evans was ap-
pointed TO fiji the vacancy on the vacation
school committee, made so by the resigna-
ton of Miss Julia Harrison Moore. IL was
announced that the annual cleo ion would be
held at the April meeting. Mrs. J. W. Hess
and Mrs. j. 5. Harrington were appointed 10
confer with the City Council relative TO a
measure 10 protect the shade trees of the
city from the ravages OF the caterpillar.
The address OF the afternoon was deliv-
cred by Mr.. Amos Butler, secretary OF the
Board OF State Charities. Mr.. Buffers sub
5ect was "Reformatory Work In Our State"
