prettiest blues are folies amoureseus. a
tone on the scarlet order; limoges on
the delft order a Fashoda. a robins
egg blue. OF the grays there is de
Seyigne, which is quite light; Marie
Theresa, a deeper tone, and Safre, a
blush gray Azalee, a reddish purple,
is the best of the lilac series. 4 few
shades of other colors are shown as
soft yellow. half dozen different reds
and one or two pinks. These VIII be
probably the most popular ones but il

There Will be colors and shades with

DANGERS OF MILITARISM.

The tendency of the administration
necessary. accompaniment of an imper-
ial policy. The administration, not
satisfied with enough soldiers to ac-
complish present purposes, desired the
proposed increase in the army to be
permanent.
AS Senator German stated in his eX-
cellent speech on the army bill, an i'm
mense standing army is constant and
serious menace to the welfare and lib
critics of the people. In the hands of
an INSCRIPTIONS administration sub
servient to the trusts and monopolies
and other plutocratic enemies of the
people, it would be of vast danger to
popular rights and liberties.
The Democratic minority in Congress,
aided by patriotic Republicans, have
done we'll in combating this vast
threatening evil, by opposing any great
permanent increase in the standing
army, although offering the President
all the soldiers for use in the Philip
pines, Cuba and Porto Rico he may de-
sire to maintain our legitimate suprem-
acy there.
There is no honest, patriotic reason
why the vast and frightfully costly and
burdensome increase asked in our mil
itary force should be made permanent
1t is suspected, however, and the sus-
picion is we'll founded, that the pluto
cratic influences named above, which
dominate the present administration,
sought in the present stress of the
country to slip in this necessary ad-
junct to government by injunction"
For the trust magnates of Wall street
have a keen eye to the future and easily
| foresee conflicts between their unlawful
greed and the popular rights, which
they would override and crush.
Verify eternal vigilance on the part
of the peoples representatives is the
price of liberty.

is THE MILES INQUIRY 70 BE AN
OTHER FARCE:

1t would be interesting to know what
the Miles court of inquiry expects to
learn from officers of the commissary
department. Does that court suppose
that those officers are going to testify
against themselves and endanger their
commissions? Is it to be supposed that
they are going to admit that they knew
the beef was bad? The commissarv
officials admitted it as food for the
troops and paid for it. Confession of
knowledge of the character of
the beef would involve their own court
martial and dismissal.
Likewise, if the court expects to find
out anything from a visit to the Chi
cago establishments of the Beef Trust.
it is a most fatuous body, indeed. Does
the court imagine the beef packers are
going to expose to the court of inquiry
and to the world all the tricks of their
trade? The Beef Trust is not in bus
mess for such purpose. AS to the usual
methods of the beef packers in prepar-
ing meat for army use nothing is to
be learned from that, for there is no
question that the beef packers are ca
pable of supplying good beef and do
supply it to the ordinary trade else
they would not long keep that trade
The question is, What kind of stuff did
they work off on the army in Porto
Rico and Cuba that poisoned the troops
and had to be thrown overheard or
buried? Gen. Miles in his testimony
said:
Since DR.. Days report I have 100
others, out of which eighteen referred 10
the beef being 'embalmed,' five injected
three as poisoned one as 'inoculated. ,
nine that personalities were used. ten
that the meat was chemically treated,
fifty-ive that it was 'decomposed.' rot
ten or 'putrid, seven that it was moldv
or colored, seven that the cans Of roast
beef burst or exploded twenty-nine
that sickness was caused by the meat.
and fifty-five that it was devoid of

Isn't the court of inquiry aware that
there is but one way to get at the facts
and the truth of this case, namely, to
examine the men, the enlisteI Aldiers,
and the company officers. were

THE UNDERGROUND TROLLEY.

Three ST. Louis street car lines are
about to adopt the underground troll
ley. The action is voluntary upon the
part of the companies, who have the
common sense to see their own best
interest in the new, better and cheaper
arrangement of their motive power.
The underground trolley has been
found to be success in eastern cities
notably New York and Washington.
The dangerous and unsightly overhead
wire is done away with, while the
underground method is much the sim
pier. 1t means streets freer from OBJ
structions likely to be a dangerous
menace to life and property in time of
fire.
The system has also proven to be
the most economical, which is the
surest guarantee of its ultimate adop-
ton everywhere. The saving is COM
