Mr.. Mckinley took the oath of Office. the
Maine members of Congress began to use
their influence for the restoration of
Maine people to their former status. The
work went on rapidly and probably all of

were when President Cleveland came IN

When the next Congress eonvenes' It
will be necessary for the bill for the re-
organization of the volunteer army and
the militia, which was drawn by Adlu-

weeks ago by Representative Burleigh
and later in the Senate by Mr.. Frye.
Congress has had no time for the bill

session. However. the developments Of
The last week or two have been most Ia
vorable TO some legislation along that
line in the next Congress. The standing
army that this Congress is likely to au-
thorize will not be so large to endan-

much money that Congress will ne un-

victories.
The outcome must be
the crushing of the Beers; it is impossible
for undrilled mObs, however brave, whatever
good marksmen, to stand against the tactics
OF Imperial regiments.
Some comments have been made with re-
gard to the apparent deterioration in the
Boer craftsmanship. 1t must be remem-
bered that the splendid shooting of Eng
lands opponents has hitherto only been eX-
emplified by the frOntiersmen of the country.
who by circumstance depend on their rifle
for sustenance and protection, as did our
own hardy Western borderers 1t is only
natural that when citizens who have not
handled rifle for Il generation, join the fray
the average should be lowered.
That the shooting of the Beers is in no
way to be despised however. is proven by
the heavy British losses at Glencoe and
Ladysmth.
Up to the present British strategy seems
to have administered that of General Joubert
at Glencoe. Owing to General Symons fore
sight the three columns of the Beers failed
to unite, the flank movement was averted
and the Beers defeated with the heavy loss
of 800 against the British $50. The Beers
have shown not only dOgged persistence in
the face of repeated defeats but anxiety to
renew the, from the onlooker's point of want
age, hopeless contest. The British have sus-
tanned their reputation for pluck and valor;
the flag that still flies at Mafeking is one of
the triumphs of the campaign.
Following our own experiences in Cuba,
artillery has played the most important part
in the duel. The English batteries are
equipped not alone with all facilities but
with long experience in warfare. The heavy
losses of the Beers are without doubt due to
the rapid movements and precision of fire
of the artillery in the field.
1t is only probable that within the next
two weeks the already flying rumors of sur
render by the Beers will have become GER
tainties.
