dishonorable discharge and a years inn
prisonment Possibly there is some
exaggeration in the report. 1t is to be
hoped so. Still, it clearly illustrates
military methods. AS before stated,
strict discipline is necessary, and this
in turn gives an officer inflated with
a sense of his own Importance, chance
to carry it to the most unreasonable
and brutal lengths.
The larger the army the stricter must
be the discipline in order to maintain
authority and the more numerous will
be the cases such as those referred to.
The arguments against militarism
are limitless in number and unanswer-
able in their nature. The anomoly is
that 1t should be necessary to make any
argument at all on that line in the
United States. The people of this
country ought to understand that an
imperialistic policy cannot be main
tanned without large standing army,
which means "mlitarism," and a cur
tailment of the great principles of hui
man rights which have heretofore con-
stituted the bedrock foundations of the
republic. There is and can be no great
difference between an empire and
republic that is run upon the principles
of an empire. Look at France!

to be, in general, the men of money.
They own most of the capital invested
in the extensive mines of the country.
These gold mines are the largest
known, extending for hundreds of miles
across the region in which they are
located. They are known to be very
rich, and it is estimated that they will
yield steady and large returns for a
century to come. The existence of such
a bonanza in the Transvaal country is,
not unreasonably, held by some to be
the chief cause of the protracted squab-
bling between England and the Trans
vaal. 1t is believed that the differences
would have been patched up long ago
but for the rich mines of gold. AS Col
pnel Ingersoll said in his summing up
of the Davis will case "Oh, the corrod-
ing power of gold.'

"Injustice to Senator Carter"

~ HE Standard joins the political
friends of Senator Carter in re-
GREETING that any injustice has
been done him in connection with his
views upon the Philippine situation,
Probably our regrets are keener than
those of his own party associates, for
we appreciate the extent of that in
justice more fully than they seem to-
The very worst injustice that can be-
fall any man is that which he inflicts
upon himself. Mr.. Carter expressed
some views on the subject of the I'M
fortunate war in the Philippines. In
substance and effect he said that the
question would be determined upon the
basis of dollars and cents. Some of
the papers have quoted him literally to
that effect. But whether he used those
exact words or said that it would be
treated as a business proposition, or
that commercial considerations would
govern, it makes no difference--it all
resolves itself into the same cold blood
ed idea that everything else would be
subordinated to the dollar"
The Standard ventures to hope that
neither the democratic party nor a con-
siderable fraction of any other party in
the United States will ever be educated
up to such a conception of national
morals. In dealing with the Philippine
question we believe that the great prin-
ciple of right and wrong should weigh
something in the balance; that the
slaughter of hundreds and thousands
of our young men, the best and bravest
in the land, should receive the sympa-
thetic consideration of every humane
person; that the great principles of
equality and justice upon which our
government was founded should not be
kept entirely out of sight, and that the
wise precept and example Of the
fathers" of which Secretary Hay
spoke with so much veneration in his
recent letter to Chairman Dick, may
merit a passing thought.
When Mr.. Carter deliberately ignores
all these things and publicly states
that nothing is to be considered but the
question of how many dollars there are
in the job, he does himself far great
er injustice than any political opponent
could possibly infiict upon him. 1t is
no wonder that his party friends feel
the necessity of flying to the rescue
with the feeble and far-fetched apology
that he didn't mean exactly what he
said. The Standard repeats that when
Mr.. Carter undertakes to settle the
whole Philippine question upon strictly
pecuniary principles. he does not rep
resent the honest judgment of the peo-
pie of Montana-any more than he does
when he fiippantly declares himself to
be IAN administration man."

Passenger Agents Meet.

DenYer. Sept. 19.-The American Asso-
citation of Travelling Passenger Agents
began it's annual session here to-day.
Welcoming addresses were delivered by
Ex-Governor Alva Adams and Supervisor
Flllius, in the absence of Governor Thorn
as and Mayor Johnson. A response was
made by e. X. Mcleod, president of the
association. p. s. Eustis. general passen-
ger agent of the Chicago. Burlington &
Quincy, delivered an address on THE
Passenger Agent in which he urged the
delegates to resent the customary insin-
uation of the public that a passenger
agent was a fraud. The association then
went into executive session.

Z N fact, if not in theory, the pardon of
Dreyfus is complete vindication of
Dreyfus and a slap at the French
army by the civil powers. Theoretic-
ally, a pardon presupposes guilt. But
all the world knows that Dreyfus Is in
nocent, and a pardon in his case is
rather in the nature of a reversal of
judgment. 1t is unfortunate that it is
not an absolute and unconditional par
don't is said to be hampered with the
condition that Dreyfus shall leave
France as a precautionary measure
against demonstrations" If Dreyfus
is entitled to any pardon at all, he is
deserving of the fullest and completest
pardon the French government can give
him, let the future events be what they
may. A conditional pardon is illustra-
tive of the timidty of the government
the perpetual fear that the civil powers
have of the mobs on the one hand and
of the military on the other. France is
still republic only in name. The army
is the ruling factor.
The world will wait and see how the
pardon is worded before pronouncing
judgment upon it. If 1t is merely a
communication of sentence, if it merely
sets aside the penalty prescribed for the
crime of which the court martial pro-
nounced Dreyfus guilty. it will be as
cowardly piece of business as was the
verdict itself. 1t would be a compro-
mise with the army, dshonorable from
every point of view. 1t would settle
nothing. 1t would prolong the strug-
gle between the military and civil pow
ers, and in all likelihood bring about
fresh complications. Nothing but the
restoration of Captain Dreyfus to his
grade and rank in the service will meet
all the desired ends.

Samples of Militarism.
HE case of Thomas McVeagh Of
Company G, First Wyoming

HE case of Thomas McVeagh of
Company G, First Wyoming
volunteers, may well be consd-
cred by those who, in a thoughless way,
are urging an imperialistic policy,
which necessarily carries with it mil
itarism on a large scale.
McVeagh had trouble with one of his
superior officers. and struck him. Such
an act in civil life would. at the worst,
have been simple assault and battery,
and the punishment might have been
ten, twenty or thirty days in the
county Jail. Or it might have been held
by the jury that the blow was justi-
fable and the prisoner acquitted.
In the army things are not done that
way. McVeagh was tried by court
martial and sentenced to be shot to
death with musketry. This sentence,
however, has been committed by the
president to a forfeiture Of all pay and
allowances, a dishonorable discharge
and Imprisonment at hard labor for
three years. Even this seems to be a
fearful punishment. But it must be
remembered that it is impossible to
maintain discipline in an army without
the greatest strictness and the sever
est punishments.
Without discipline an army is no
more than mob. OF necessity the Of
ficers are entrusted with great power.
They can subject the enlisted man to
the most vexatious annoyances, and
punish him for the slightest cause. If
his temper gives way and he even en-
ploys disrespectful language to the of
ticer, he is subject to court martial,
and If he should strike an officer with
his open hand he may be shot to death,
after being tried, not by jury of pri-
Yates, like himself. but by a court
composed Of officers, interested in
maintaining their own authority and
dignity. COnceding the wisdom of these
rules in military affairs, it is not a
condition to be admired, and it is GER
tainly not one that Mberty-loving
American should be willing to extend
any further than is absolutely neces-
sary.
Another case in point is that of Law
renee Hoon, reported in the day before
yesterdays dispatches. This young man
was guilty of the shocking insubordin-
alton Of addressing a personal letter
to General Otis without first obtain
ing permission of an intermediate Of
ficer. 1t does not appear that the let
ter was offensive in tone. 1t was
merely request for an opportunity to
be examined as to his fitness for a lieu
tenancy. He has been sentenced to a

ARE TRYING TO SAVE
M'K|NLEY FROM MISTAKES

Washington Correspondence of the
New York Journal.
The cabinet had another three-hour
meeting to-day. 1t was the second
recent meeting of such unusual length,
and its result is both interesting and
important.
Officially it is stated that a money
order system for Cuba is being devised
at these lengthy councils. Actually.
however. the cabinet has been devils
ing plan by which President McKin-
ley may be extricated from the slough
of Imperialism into which he has
plunged himself by his recent public
utterances.
In brief, President Mckinley is to
cease proclaiming, by word of mouth
his plans for the government of the
Philippines. The Philippine commission
is to be hurried here to formulate a
report and prepare a series of recon-
mendatiOns. These the president will
approve.
He will then turn over the entire mat
ter to congress, with the explanation
that the administration desires
to express no further opinion,
in order that it shall not APP
pear to be coercing congress to do
something which congress, perhaps,
may not care to do. The republican
legislative leaders will then see that
the administration scheme is carried
out.
In other words, the Philippine COM
mission is to bear the brunt of all fur
Their criticism for the Philippine policy,
if more criticism is forthcoming. 1t
is to be the buffer The commission
presumably has the confidence of the
people, because Admiral Dewey and
two eminent college professors are in
cluded in it's membership.
1t is contended by republican poll
ticians that Mckinley has made some
grave errors of late, and that contin-
ued daily criticism of him from now
until the republican national conven-
ton will make him a presidential inn
possibility.
This subject was anxiously discussed
by the cabinet at the meetings of last
Tuesday and to-day Tuesdays meet
ing consumed two hours and 80 min
utes; to-day's took three hours. Not
even DeIOTe OF curing the spanish war
were the cabinet meetings SO pro-
tracted.
The substance of the situation is that
the president has been politely rebuk-
ed by his managers, told to keep quiet
and not to make himself the target for
denunciation. 1t is understood the
leaders of every republican state have
put themselves on record as condemn
ing the presidents unusual-and, in
their opinion, necessary-boldness in
projecting his personality into the Phil
ippine discussion. f1a
The attention of the republican pol
iticians was directed to this matter
two weeks ago. They then began COM
municating with each other by letter
and personal conference throughout the
country. Representations on the SUBJ
ject were made to cabinet members
and also to the president. The discus
sion of the question increased to such
an extent that the matter was for
mally taken up at the cabinet meeting
of last Tuesday
Yesterday the decision was reached
that the Philippine commission must
be sent for at once and be forced to as
sumo entire responsibility for the ad-
ministration's Philippine programme
Cable messages were accordingly sent
to Colonel DENLY and Dean Worcester,
who had expected to remain some
