Responsibility Of the Voter

In an address to his townsmen at LincolE
Col. Bryan gave some excellent advics
about the responsibility of voting that Ii
worth being quoted not as Democratic cam
paign matter but as sound principles thai
apply pointedly to every American vote
whether he be Democrat. Republican
Populist. Prohibitionist or advocate of any
of the dozen political parties of this coun.
try. Mr.. Bryan said
at is great privilege to be an American
citizen, but there is grave responsibility
that goes with it. We are living under 8
government whose policy is determined by
the people. where the citizen possesses his
own opinion, where the policy of the nation
may be determined by the vote OF one citi.
zen. Let me leave one thought with you
That ls, that when you 90 in to vote you
vote as though you knew your vote will
determine the next election. Remember
what it means Your vote may determine
the result in Nebraska, and the result in
Nebraska may determine the result in the
nation. Yonr vote may determine the
election of a Congressman and that Con-
gresham may determine the fate of some
great policy. 1t may determine the com
plexi0n of the next State Legislature which
sends two Senators to Washington, who
may be called upon to determine the
nations position among other nations, in
defense of the doctrine that Government
comes up from the people,

From the New York Journal OF Tuesdays
The Republican National Literary Blu
reau is circulating, as refutation of the
charge that imperialism and militarism go
together, a campaign speech delivered, with
exquisite taste, by ex-senator Henderson,
in his official capacity as a graduation
speaker at West Point.
General Henderson has compiled series
of tables designed to show that the military
burden is insignificant in the United States,
compared with that borne by the subjects
of the armed monarchies of Europe. These
tables, we are informed, have been pre-
pared with very great care" with the idea
of having them accurate beyond possible
ity of dispute" We are also informed
that in 60 far as they refer TO foreign
countries, the figures have been brought
down to the very latest date possible"
We have first table showing the num-
Der of men in the army of each country,
and its proportion to population. Next we
have the area of each country, the ratio of
soldiers to the square mile, and of square
miles to soldiers. It is all very interesting
bat ought there not to be something more
Yes, and General Henderson has not for
gotten it. We want to know how much
all this costs, and here is his answer

American Way to Deal with china.

AMERICAN way 70 Deal with china
Mr.. Bryan has just given his views on
the Chinese situation. Hitherto be has de-
clined to express himself because, as he
said, the Administration was doubtless
better informed than private citizens and
would act with due caution in the matter.
Last Friday he said:
Every one deplores the destruction of
life in China and is Mortified at the bar
barities practiced. Every one believes that
1t is the duty Of cur government to protect
the lives and property of American citizens
residing in China, end have no doubt that
the Administration will do so. | also take
it for granted that all American citizens
viii githdraw from China, temporarily, or
take refuge in some seaport where they can
be protected by American ships until the
excitement is over.
Ii the Chinese government has tried in
good faith 70 protect our citizens, suitable
punishment for the guilty and Ieparation
and indemnity for those who have suffered
can doubtless be secured. If upon inyesti-
cation it is found that the Chinese Govern
meut has not acted In good faith, Congress
hes power to deal with the matter
For several years European nations have
been threatening to dismember China, and
it is not strange that their ambitious de-
signs should arouse feeling Of hostility
toward foreigners That feeling, however,
ought not to be directed against American
citizens and will not be if our nation makes
il known that it has no desire to grab land
or TO trespass upon the rights Of China A
hfm adherence to the American policy OF
justice and fair dealing will not only set
an example TO other nations, but will give
TO our citizens residing in China the best
promise OF security. Il will be better for
our merchants TO have it known that they
seek trade only when trade is mutually
advantageous 1t will be better for our
missionaries TO have it known that they are
preaching the gospel of love and are moi
f0rerRnners Of fleets and armies.

New York, Aug. Arguments were
made yesterday before Justice Gieg-

of the military court that branded him
a coward. The justice reserved his de-
cision
In mis- argument in behalf Of Major
Smith Colonel Bacon said that 1t was
not argued that Governor Roosevelt
did not have the right to appoint a
court of inquiry, and that proper
court had the right to hear evidence
and make a finding on It. THE Sew
enty-frst regiment did its duty at San

citedly. Unlike other regiments. how
ever, they did not have staff Of news

them to chronicle their glorious ac-
ton and boom them Contrast the
showing made by the Seventy-first and
that of the Rough Riders. Which is
the best?" H then began hitter att
tack on the governor. especially as to
his military record. which was stop
ped by the court.

Mr.. Coyne. who represented the state,
was appointed at the request of Major
Smith after he had been branded as
a coward by the officers of his regi-
ment The board found that the men
Of the Seventy-first did their duty
bravely and well at the battle of San

officered by men who were towards.

leaning over toward Mr. Coyna. That

citedly declared Major Smith.

These figures for the United States look
strangely small to those who have given
the subject any attention. We look at
them more closely, and we find that they
are for 1896, under Democratic admins
tration, and before the policy of Imperialism
was heard of.
It is only for foreign countries that these
statistics are brought down ito the very
latest date possible" The actual army
appropriation for the fiscal year 1901 is
s1l4 22o, Osb 55. which is nearly FIVE times
the amount under the Democratic regime.
The cost of the army in 896 was only
$28 .252, SOS. The rest Of General Mander-
sons $51, 093. 927 represents river and har
Dor and other non military expenditures.
Thus, even on the Republican statis-
ticians own showing, there are only three
military powers ia Europe that spend more
on their armies than we are spending now.
But that tells less than half the story. All
the following expenditures, provided for in
our appropriation bills for the fiscal year
1901. are included in the European mill
