ALREADY our army is trebled, our
expenses more than doubled and the
demand is still for a greater army.
Yet in the face of these facts and of the
conditions to which the people cannot
be blind our imperislist friends have
the lmpudence t. tell US that imperial
ism is impossible and militarism can
not be. They already exist and they
must be stopped.

We copy from the Post-Dispatch the
following compilation of the results of
Republican rule in st. Louis:
On Aug. 4 the street cleaning and re-
pair force was discharged.
Sept. II the block patrol system was
abolished.
Nov. 1 sweeping will be stopped.
Then the entire city will go dirty.
There is no money in the treasury to
pay for cleaning.
There are no lights in the western
portion of the city. Citizens who would
escape the mudholes mast carry lam
terms. Those who would escape the
highwayman will not venture out of
doors in the dark of the moon.
Work on the new city hall has ceas-
ed. There is no money in the treasury
to complete it.
The City Hospital is a ire-trap.
The Insane Asylum is another.
The inmates of the hospital, the asy-
lum and the poorhouse are not proper
ly fed. There is not money enough in
the treasury to buy anything but dried
fruit. Water is tree.
But we got a loon yet, amt it? The
light of municipal lunacy shines 8 or
dained in the calendar. Let US be
thankful for the moon.
And yet the Republicans have the
gall to ask the people of Missouri to
entrust the State government in their
hands! Their rotten rule up 20 1871
we must not criticize because it is ian.
cient history" st. Louis will heartily
bless the day when she can refer tc
Ziegenheinism also as ''ancient h1sto'
ry," don't it?

The Lawton Testimonial May Reach
sixty Thousand Dollars.


Only three more days remain for sub
scribing to the Lawton home fund, and the

$4,000 more in cash will be received, max
ing total of about 100000. The fund
closes Friday night, but it will be several

far south as Texas.

reach Si5. 600.
Letters and kilograms have been received
stating that the funds in New York, San
Francisco, Pittsburg, and other cities are
being increased daily, and will be sent in
as soon as the fund closes.
The Adjuiant General hopes to have all
the subscriptions in within the next t~o
weeks, and he will then arrange all the de-
tails for paying on the mortgage on the
home. so that when Mrs Lawton arrives in
Washington in February little will re main
TO be done beyond transferring the deeds
to Mrs Lawton and turning over the
amount raised in excess of the mortgage.

received since Saturday noon: Subscriptions

the event that the defendant is not found,
the marshal is required TO so state Ia his
