GERS of the army is surely reliable. The
prohibitionists demand the suppress
sion Of the canteen while the practical
ly unanimous report from the officers
is that as an institution it has lessened
drunkenness and vice and increased
the comforts Of the private soldier,
by adding luyuries TO his mess not
included in the issue OF rations,
and by providing them with a read
ing room and periodicals. The Meth
odist ministers who were unwilling to
accept this report from the officers
and to whose reproaches President
Mckinley has yielded, undoubtedly

country can be prevented from drink.
ing by suppression of the canteen.
The conduct of soldiers, history says
is never as seemly as that Of men at
home in the shadow or the light of
womau's influence. But under the
canteen drunkenness is rare. Tenn
perance and self control are compul-
sorry. If the ministers, good and holy
as they are, could only have inspected
the system in the divers camps of the
United States, l believe they would
not have so unanimously condemned
the system.

City Improvement.

City Improvement.
Lincoln has luxurious and hope
full supply of children. The City I'm
proyement society has decided to take
advantage Of the enthusiasms, the
teachableness and responsiveness of
the little children and enlist them in
the identifying of the city. Neat
ness and order is the first step to-
wards beauty. No flowers or sward,
no trees or shrubs can obscure the
uglinesS Of broken walk and OF piles
of rubbish in the alleys. 1t is pro-
posed to organize neighborhoods into
bands under the captains and lieu
tenants elected by the members of
the band. The officers in each band
are, the keeper OF the hammer and
nails, the keeper Of the broom, the
custodian Of the saw, etc. The func-
tion of this band is to watch the
walks in the neighborhood, if board
or walk is found broken or loose the
keeper of the hammer and nails is
notified and the damage is repaired.
Ii the repairs are more complicated
and extensive than the band is able
to accomplish the householder is mott
fed and reminded until the walk is
safe and neat again. Such RESPONSE.
BILE duties placed upon the children
will do more than improve the ap-
pearance of the whole city. 1t oc.

 A DAY OF THIRST. From front door point or NlSW It was an lmpOSSl- bility for a thirst-stricl1en man to quench his desire at a local bar. and in seeming conformity with election day rules, every saloon was closed tighter than the traditional drum but whisper it softly-the latch-strings Were out and dry palates were moist ensd, quietly, in a fashion which put the ban boys in the Good Samaritan class. There was no open drinking, however, and the police had no trou- ble whatever.
 THE RETURNS At a dozen places up town last night election returns were read to thousands of anxious peo- pie. At the Doris theater the demo- cratic club dealt out leased wire re- ports to a crowd that filled the house, and at the Adams and Commercial iic- tels, the Palace, Capitol. Bodega, CIark's and several other places, bull letins were displayed amid enthusiasm which vented itself in great punches of vociferous manifestations of partisan approval, growing in volume as the night advanced and only dying down at daybreak. The Postal service was unfortunately interrupted for nearly an hour by the fire in the rear of tine ! building which burned eff its wires

flying to Congressman Long, who has
worked so industriously to accomplish the

Representative Joseph Sibley of Penn

Independent. He is wealthy. He is not
bound by political or other ties Of any
sort or kind whatsoever. He came 10
congress because he wanted TO do so. He
will probably stay here as long as he
desires. Yet the Democratic national con-
vention of 1896 seriously considered him. in
that free silcer year, as Bryan's possible
running mate. Mr. Sibley is no free sill
YER man, however. and has expansion
learnings. The other day in the house,
Mr.. Sulzer of New York. pugilistic look
ing fellow, who prides himself on his
boosted resemblance to Henry Clay had
denounced in severe terms Secretary Of
the Treasury Gage. He was insulting: he
was offensive: he was distinctly Sulzer-
esque. Mr.. Sibley took the floor and
tainted and roasted Democracy for a
considerable time. He said it was very
fortunate for the country that It had sucn
a man as Gage for secretary Of the treas
ury. He said NIr. Gage knew the situa-
ton and took prompt action by authoriz-
ing deposits in banks throughout the
country, and in New York city, and thus
checked the panicky feeling before it
spread througout other cities. He was
forceful in what he said. and It made the
Democrats sQuirm. The Champ Clark Of
Missouri very bright man. but very
much of a demagogue in many ways,
took the floor and proceeded to read Mr.
Sibley out Of the Democratic party. But
it IS likely Mr.. Sibley Will remain in the
Democratic party for many years, and
will always be telling unpleasant things
