SHOULD RECAsr ARMY.
9 Berliner Tageblatt says:-

The Berliner Tageblatt says:-
''The reorganization, as described
by the Under Secretary of State for
War, when tested even in the most
superficial manner, shows itself
to be nothing but useless patch
work, and it is most regrettabls
symptom of the blindness OF the
men at the head OF affairs in Eng
land that they should still be ignor-
ant of the fact that the English
army requires to be recast, lock,
stock and barrel.
"The lessons which, from a mill
tary point of view, England has
drawn from her reverses in South
Africa are, in spite of the assurances
in the speech from the throne, very
small. England must apparently
received some further military les
sons from Russia before she reaches
the point OF view of Prussia. A
hundred years ago, thanks to the
thrashings she received from Ma
poleon l., that State adopted mill
tary system which has since been
followed by all the great Powers."
TURKISH PARALLEL TO BoERS.
The well,known reorganizer OF the
Turkish army, Field Marshal Won
der Goltz Pasha, publishes in the
current number OF the military
Wochenblatt an article on the Tur-
kish reforms and the Boer army, in
which he points out that the battal.
ions which have been introduced in
the last ten years in the Ottoman
forces are based on similar princi-
Piles and qualities to those charac.
terizing the forces of the Transyaal.
In both cases the characte ristio
features were implicitly. solidity aud
thoroughness, combined with strong
religious feeling. The Beers are
superior to the Turks in shooting,
but in all other points there is an
astonishing similarity.
Field Marshal Won der Goltz, how
ever. declares that it is mistake for
people, who advise the transforming
OF the standing armies of Europe
into militia, to draw conclusions
favorable to their views from the
Boer war ..t

vice, and that is why everybody is
asking why the government has sud
denly changed its mind and aban-
doned its former intentions.
RADICAL REFORM IMPOSSIBLE AT PRESENT.
The solution dwindles down to
the fact that the only desire OF the
government is to take such meas
ures as will overcome the existing
difficulties in South Africa aud else
where. and they have therefore TO
adopt such measures as can be car.
ried out with all speed.
"The present critical moment is
little favorable for the introduction
OF such far reaching innovation as
universal military service, and il the
government we're to try to enforce
IL at the present moment as condi.
ton of the continuance of war they
would be placing everything on a
single throw oil The dice.
"The positive proposal of the gov
eminent is to rely almost entirely
on the patriotic sentiments of the
nation. The militia will be invited
to bring itself up TO full strength.
The volunteers will be invited to
raise battalions OF one thousand
men and organize dodies of mount
ed infantry, and the yeomanry will
be invited to change itself, as far as
possible, into mounted infantry.
sit requires good dose Of lingo
optimism to believe that the govern.
ment by such means bring the army
up to $4,000 men, even if the pay
Of the militia and the capitation
grant to the volunteers should be
increased and the militia volunteer
officers given a chance OF entering
the regular army.
However tempting these propos-
ais may seem to militia and volun.
teers, the corresponding conditions
attached to them will have a decid-
eddy detrimental effect. Thus, for
instance, the government asks that
the volunteers be invited to go un.
der canvas for four weeks per an
mum. We may prophesy with some
certainty that the great mass Of VOL
unteers would resign if they should
be called upon to leave their civil
employment four weeks every year."

lend itself to the style Of fighting
now being carried on in South
Africa. The lessons Of the war are
that the introduction of the small
calbre rifle has increased to an ex-
traordinary degree the defensive
powers of first class troops, and that
small body of men, armed with
modern weapons, need not fear an
attack from greatly superior force
"The advantages Of fighting in
open order, combined with taking
skilful advantage of such cover as is
afforded by the ground, have again
been brought prominently to the
front, but this comes as no surprise
to us. We we're convinced Of its i'm
portance before the war,
But in regard to battles between
masses Of men, to strategy and in
struction OF troops we learn but lit
tie from the present war"
As a sample of Austrian opinion
the Neue Freie Presse says:
The Euglish Secretary of Slate
for War has announced now phase
of history for Great Britain. In
speech, which, like that OF Chamber
lain, was intended to strengthen the
position Of the Cabinet and give
fresh courage to the population, his
Lordship announced with drum and
trumpet that the government will
not yet have resource to CONSUMPTION.
The emphasis lies on the words "not
yet" And so much "conscription,"
however, has been uttered and will
never more disappear from the Eng.
lish vocabulary. 1t will sound
stronger and ever stronger in the
ears of the nation till the time comes
when it will be carried into effect.
NO PROTEST WAS MADE.
1t must already be put on record
that of all the speakers who follow
ed Lord Lansdowne not single one
protested against the fact that the
word CONSUMPTION had heen uttered
in the English Parliament, and that
not a single one expressed indigna-
ton regarding the policy of the
government which has brought the
country to such a crisis.
Assurances that the military
power OF Britain is not yet exhaust
ed, that $4,000 regulars are still in
the country, that further army of
100000 men has been organized and
if necessary will be sent to South
Africa are simply uttered for the
gallery.

IF, however, he should not sue
coed in defeating the Beers, and if
the symptoms OF rebellion in the
Soudan and in the Cape should in
crease, the British nation will itself
demand the creation OF thorough
ly modern army, and then Britain's
proudest boast of the absoluty free
dom OF her people will have become
byword.

GRAND PACIFIC OIL COMPANY.

One of the heaviest and most promising
oil corporations having headquarters in
this city is the Grand Pacific, and it is
meeting with remarkable success in dis
posing OF its shares, Il 900 having been
sold in one day this week. The fact is,
that the extraordinary opportunity offered
by this company for gilt-edged investment
has attracted class of buyers who have
not hitherto yielded to the oil fever, which
is now becoming epidemic in California.
While it is true that the Grand Pacific cen
trolls a smaller body of land than some
other companies the excellent. character
of its holdings, which are located in five OF
the most productive districts in the State,
gives it the preference among careful buy
ers. This company holds 1920 acres, dis
tributed as follows: 16O acres in Sunset
district, 100 acres in McKittrick district, 80
acres in Contra Costa county, 1850 acres in
the Coalinga district and $40 acres in the
kettleman district.
The Grand Pacific has legally made its
shares absolutely and forever non-access-
able, thus removing the great bug-bear OF
stock buyers. Another advantage is found
in its large capitalization. The ordinary
company, with small capitalization, may
fail, but the Grand Pacific, with 600, 900,
shares in its treasury, as working capital,
will be able to sink great number of wells,
and thus the possibility of failure is elm
mated. But limited quantity of its stock
will be sold at fifty cents per share. Very
soon the price will be advanced to 81 per
share.
The Grand Pacific has begun its initial
work of development on its Contra Costa
land, and to this end has now gang of
men employed in grading for the erection
oil the necessary buildings, derrick, etc.
The machinery is on the ground and is
being put in position as fast as workmen
can place it. Water is as necessary as ma
chinery to the work of developing an oil
property. This company has an album
dance of water on its Contra Costa land
and over 1000 feet of piping has already
been done, leading to the we'll site. 1t is
expected that, If nothing unforeseen hap
pens, the active work of drilling will be in
progress within the next fifteen days.
As rapid as machinery and tools can
be secured, wells will be bored in the other
districts mentioned. As there are numer-
Gus oil springs on the Contra Costa prop
erty OF the company the indications are
excellent Tor rich strike in the Grand
