BIG STANDING ARMY.

Senator Jones is quoted as say
ing that the Democrats in the Senate
will not resort to needless speeches
or filibustering tactics to defeat meas
ures that they oppose which are in
keeping with the pledges made by the
Republican party in the campaign.
THE country" he said, has apparent
ly Endorsed Republican policies" and
he added:
I believe in majority rule and am
opposed to resorting to delay to en-
phasiZe our opposition to every Re-
publican measure. | do not think the
Democrats will be disposed to employ
such tactics on any of the measures
now discussed unless it is the propo-
sition for a permanent increase in
the standing army. We will fight that
to the end. We will give the President
just as many volunteer soldiers as are
necessary, but to add to the perma-
nent establishment is an entirely diff
fefent question, and l believe the ma
jority of the people of the country are
opposed to it,"
That correctly expresses the true
mocratic position. During the cam
ign when the Democrats charged
at the Republicans wanted to saddle
big standing army on the country,
ey denied it yehemently and said
CHI talk was "rot." They thereby
edged themselves not to establish a
'ge standing army. And yet, before
shouts of victory had died away,
ey were preparing a bill to make
standing army four times as large
ever before. ''We will fight that
the end" says Senator Jones. He
right in so doing.

could not turn over in bed alone. After
using two bottles of Electric Bitters. she
is wonderfully improved and able to do
her own work" This supreme remedy for
female diseases quickly cures nervous
ness. sleeplessness, melancholy, headache,
backache, fainting and dizzy spells This
miracle working medicine is a godsend
to weak. sickly. run down people Every

A STRICT PARTY VOTE.

1t is gratifying to know that every
mocrat in the Senate voted against
aking the ship subsidy bill the spe
II order in the Senate, and that
cry Democrat will vote against the
H.
1t is easily the most bare-faced piece
of taking money out of the pockets of
all the people to put it in the hands OF
q few favorites that ever crossed the
threshold of the Senate. It's passage is
a menace to the principle of special
privilege to none" which has ever been
a cardinal principle with this govern
ment. 1t knocks down the doors to
the Treasury and throws away the
keys. or rather opens the doors to the
few who are provided with the spe-
cial brand of keys marked Hanna"
There is one significant fact about
the vote. Senator Lindsey, a gold
Democrat, who did not vote for Bryan,
voted against the subsidy bill along
with the other members of the party.
The opposition to this indefensible bill
may be the beginning of that coming
together of the Democracy that all
Democrats hope to see realized before
1902. 1t is so clear violation of the
fundamental principles of the Demo
cratic party, that the vote upon it
may be said to mark the line of party
cleavage. Every Democrat will sup
port it because not to do so is to
violate the cardinal doctrine of his
party from Jefferson's time. Such
opposition is ''old-fashioned Demo
cratic doctrine"
