The U. S. Military Academy at
West Point is just now receiving
considerable notice in the daily pa
pers over the hazing of a cadet there
by the other smart alecks and cans-
ing his death from the brutal treat
ment he received. His parents are
demanding an investigation, and it
is likely that even Congress will take
some action and send a committee
20 inquire into the matter. The
cadets who were engaged in such
work should either be expelled or
sent at once to the front in the Phil
ippines and placed on the firing line.

And now 1t seems that some of
the smart business men in Wheeling
are just about as easy" as Uncle
Josh Wayback, when it comes to a
fim-ham or gold-brick game. A
slick New York broker came to the
Nail City last spring and induced
them to turn over about $50, 900 to
him to invest for them at two per
cent per month dividend. That was
the last of the money so far as
Wheeling is concerned, and the
aforesaid, "good business men"
have just found out that the New
York Journal had exposed this same
sharper and his schemes about a
year before his visit to Wheeling.

While the Democratic caucus on
the Army bill, which was railroad
ed through the House this week.
did not agree upon any party pol
icy in opposing the bill, the Demo
Gratis who spoke against the bill in
the limited time allowed them were
practically unanimous in Directing
to the imperial powers given the
President, of increasing the regular
army from $4,000, the minimum
number provided by the bill, to
100, 900 men whenever so disposed
and of retaining it at the highest
figures as long as he wanted to. The
Democrats agreed that it was more
power than Congress ever placed In
one mans hands and more than
should be given to any man. Other
Objectionable features were pointed
out by Democrats, but that is all
that they could do. Mr.. McKinley's
orders had been issued to Speaker
Henderson, and Of course the bill
was passed.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Congress Carrying Out Republican
Campaign Promises.
The Regular Army to be Increased
to 100000 Men.
The Ship Subsidy steal to be Passed.

IRON our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3, 1900
The Republican leaders in Con-
gress are on their knees to the brew
ers, begging to be let off with a
small reduction in the tax on beer.
instead o! the entire war tax as de.
handed by the brewers. All this
has been brought about in a week.
A week ago the Republican mem
bers of the Ways and Means com.
mittee refused to even consider n
reduction in the beer tax. Since
then Representative Babcock, who
was chairman of the Republican
Congressional Committee and knew
all about campaign contributions
and promises, had succeeded Dol
liver, of Iowa, who has gone TO the
Senate, as a member of the WAYS
and Means Committee, and has
told the Republican members there
of few things, as Mr.. Hanna has
also done. Now it is no longer a
question of whether there will be a
reduction of the beer tax, but of
how small reduction the brewers
can be cajoled into accepting. The
bill as reported from the Ways and
Means Committee makes a reduct-
ion of 40 cents barrel in the beer
tax, but it is not yet certain that
the brewers will accept that.

CARRIE CHAPMAN Gait.


Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, who sue
ceeds Susan B. Anthony as president of
the American Woman Suffrage associa-
tion, is unquestionably the foremost
active suffragist of this day. She took
up the cause several years ago and has
devoted to it all the time she could rea-
5sonably spare from her duties Of the
household. Mrs. Gait was born in
Iowa and lived in that state until she
became the wife of George A. Gait, the
big dredging contractor. Since that
time she has made her home in New

The British are winning the victories
That come to the many over the few.
The Beers are being crowded back and

All England believes tina, the war IL

Change in Mr.. Bryan.

What a wonderful change has come
over the American people in their esti-
mate Of the ability, craftsmanship and
political honesty OF Hon. VIM. j. Bryan.
In 1896 the press and people spoke OF
him as 1.-THE boy orator of the Platte
"a meteor passing over the politica
horizon" 1.-THE man seeking to buy Of
flee with 50-cent dollar" and as ''the
man who would never be heard OF after
the campaign was over
In this year of 1900 the press and peo-
pie say he is the most wonderful orator
OF the age. Instead of being a meteor
he is planet of the first magnitude.
AS statesman he ranks with the first
and foremost of the country and instead
OF disappearing from the political stage
they say he is brighter, stronger and
more popular than in 1896. He has
grown and is still growing in popular
favor every day.
The metropolitan papers OF this coun-
try that tried and did belittle him in
1896 now give him credit as being
great, good and honest man, a states
man and an orator, and it is only left
Tor little pop guns with soft paper wads
to shoot harmlessly at him. Mr.. Bryan
has grown wonderfully in the estima-
ton OF his friends but far more so in
the estimation of his honest notitfo.l
enemies.
