Something like this should be done
here and done quickly. The admirable
work done by Alderman Reynolds at
the last council meeting well deserves to
be set forth. In order that men can see
and consider 1t. The question of taxa
tion must be taken stern hold of by
earnest and infiexible men. The alder
mans figures tell fearful tale OF in
competence, or something worse.

GEN. WIN. LUDLOW.
The President of the Special Mill
tary Board Gives His Opinion
of the German Army.

New York, Sept. 24.-Among the
passengers who arrived on the steam
ship ST. Paul from Liverpool Sunday
was Gen. VIM. Ludlow, who went
abroad early in July as the president
of a special military board organized
for the purpose of studying the mill
itary system of Europe, with the
view of the formation of a United
States war college.
"An European nations" said the
general have a sort of war college
or general staff, body composed of
the ablest men in all the various de-
partments of the army, such as an
adiutant general, quartermaster gen
eral and commissary general. The
United States has nothing of the
kind. The commanding general has
no one to aid him in concerted action
in the face of emergency.
81 find that the German military
machine was the best organized of
all the European armies. This is
partly on account of its environment,
being surrounded by first-class pow
ers, and consequently on the alert in
times of peace for quick action in
times of war. The German officers
are the hardest worked of all in Eu-
rope They seem to be drilling and
training their men from dawn to
dusk. Certainly they have very little
leisure and not much time to sleep.
One of the results of this hard work
is that an army of 100000 men has
been modified within ten days, so
perfect are the quartermasters and
commissaries. Germany is ready in
peace and in war"

THE CENSUS.
Next Week the Announcement of
the Population of States.

Washington, Sept. 21.-Director of
the Census Merriam said Thursday
that the announcement of the popu-
iation of cities is practically complet-
ed, as no bulletin will be issued for a
town under $4,000. The bureau, he
said, probably will begin next week
announcing the population of the
states. The first will be Arkansas,
and there after they will be issued in
alphabetical order, beginning with
Alabama. 1t is thought that all of
the states will be given out before
congress assemblies. The returns
from the several states will also show
the population of cities under $4,000.

HoBsoN IN MONTREAL.
He Declares That He Is Not Respon-
sibIe for the Statement Made in
the Vancouver Interview.

Vancouver, B. c., Sept. 2O.-In an
interview with Lieut.. r. P. Hobson,
published in local paper. Hobson is
quoted as saying that Adm. Dewey
did not sink the Spanish ships at
Manila, but that the Spanish opened
the valves and scuttled the ships
themselves. He said, according to the
interview, that our shell fire did very
little damage.
New York, Sept. 21.--Adm. Dewey,
who is stopping at Sayville, Long
Island, talked Thursday of the Hob
son interview, saying:
81 hardly think the young man
meant TO say anything unl1ind, and
perhaps he did not say what is said
there. The three vessels he referred
to are the Isla de Cuba, Isla de Luz
ION and Don Juan de Austria. They
were the least injured of the ten or
twelve ships sunk at Manila. Naval
Constructor Capps, very able man.
was with me, and he and divers and
experts. from Hong-Kong made an ex-
animation of all the Spanish ships,
and decided that these three were
worth saving Three out of a dozen!
They were raised and temporary re-
sells proceeded under their own steam
to Hong-Kong and had been there for
some time, undergoing repairs, be-
fore Mr.. HObson saw them.
GAS a matter of fact, 1 never claim
ed that we sunk the ships. I reported
that we destroyed them. 1 did see
with my own eyes an eight-inch shell
strike the stern of the Reina Maria
Christina, Adm. Monteio's flagship,
and that destroyed her.
"The Statement that the vessels
were not much injured below the
water line is probably true. Every
one knows that it is impossible for
shells to do much execution below
the water line or for anything but
torpedoes to do much damage there
A few inches of water is a great pro-
lection. Armored ships are not ar
mored much below the water line, the
water being protection enough from
a shell.
81 hardly think it worth your while
to pay much attention to this. You
know it is human nature to depreciate
what others have done, and Mr.. Hob
son may not have been quoted cor
rectly or in FULL
Montreal, Sept. 24.-Lieut Hobson
arrived in this city Sunday evening.
He was shown the answer made by
Adm. Dewey to the interview with
the lieutenant sent out from Van
couver. He said he was deeply griev-
ed that Adm. Dewey had taken the
matter up in the way reported. He
declared that he was not responsible
for the statement made in the Van
couver interview He had been APP
preached by a reporter, and in the
course of a conversation had stated
that the Spanish ships had been sunk
because the plugs were drawn by the
Spanish.
He said that it was impossible to
sink a ship by hitting it above the
water line. Adm. Dewey had, how
ever. compelled the Spaniards to sink
their ships, and that was just as eff
fective as sinking them with shells.
Personally he had the highest pos
sible respect for Adm. Dewey and his
great achievement, and he greatly re-
GREETED that anything had been at
tributed to him which might tend to
destroy the glory Of the admiraPs
deeds.

Must Walk to North Pole:

For years have we struggled to reach
the north pole by ship. Through hard
ship and danger brave explorers have
endeavored to reach the coveted spot,
The fact that the pole is still a mystery
points to the conclusion that our method
was wrong, and lends credence to the
recent utterance of a learned scientist
that we must abandon ship, copy the
Gsquimo's customs and walk to the pole.
The same commonsense reasons should
be applied to health. There is only n
road to recovery for sufferers from
stomach disorders, and that is through
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. If you
have tried to cure indigestion, constipa-
ton, dyspepsia, liver or kidney trouble
without it, you have simply been on the
wrong track. The Bitters will cure you.
