1t is very hard to stand idley by and see
our dear ones suffer while awaiting The
arrival of the doctor. An Albany (N.Y.) }
dairyman called at drug store there for
q doctor to come and see his child, then
very sick with Group. Not finding the
doctor in, he left word for him to come at
once on his return. He also bought d
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some relief
until the doctor should arrive. In few
hours he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist. Mr.. Otto Scholz.
says the family has since recommended
Chemberlain's Cough Remedy to their
neighbors and friends until he has con-
stant demand for it from that part of the
country. For sale by all druggists.

tions that are possible. This simplicity
of evolution extends through the COM
pany, the battalion, the regiment, the
brigade and larger bodies of troops,
Everything that might cause confusion
omitted.
The evolutinns of the German army
in battle forma ions work with the
ease and regularity of machinery, and
much of this is due to one thing: The
maintanance of nations that make
possible official leadership. The Amer
lean and English soldiers are especial
~ taught to rely upon themselves, and
TO think for themselves in time Of bat
tie. This has been the outgrowth of
what is known in the military service
as "eXtendsd order formations" In
such formations men are separated too
far to make orders for the individual
movement of each IA possibility.
While in general way they are part
of great fighting machine, they are
human machines. and are taught to
think and act on their own RESPONSE
bility to a certain extent.
The same is true in the German
army only to certain degree. While
in the majority of modern armies the
"eXtended order formations" are taken
as soon as an enemy's fire becomes at
all effective, say at a distance of from
1,2OO 10 1,4CG yards. in the German
army the men are held together i'm
close order formations, elbow to ell
bow just as long as it is possible even
to less than half the distance consid-
cred expedient in America, England
France or Russia.
In writing on this point Maj. Agar
says:
"In no army in the world are smart,
steady drill and power of maneuver-
ing in close order held in higher honor
or more assiduously practiced. Not
that they are looked upon as the
end of all things; on the contrary they
are considered simply the means
! TO the great end of insuring per
feet discipline on the battle field
and of keeping the troops abso-
! lutely in the handl of their leaders
Close order is the basis of all things
and in action the Germans keep their
men in close order as long as possible
preferring the loss of a few men TO let
ting their commands out of hand mo-
ment sooner than is necessary"
So ii is that the antiquated close or
der formations of what in charity may
be called the Chinese army may be met
by the more modern close order of the
! Germans.
The total peace strength of the
German is $4,000 officers and men. Ot
this total 1894 are officers and 526,
U79 are men. OF the later figure 327 Coz

are infantry; 64,496 are cavalry; 56401

1S,ss2 pioneer and railway troops. and
7.5S0 in the siege train service.

OF whom are more or less trained SOL
dters, and of these 9. AGO. ,0O0 are COM
posed of the active army and the fully
trained reserve.
But even these figures. great as they
may seem, tell neither all tie strength,
nor the weaknesses of the German
army a feature that adds large per-
centage of strength to the Germa n
forces is the perfection of organza-
tion; the careful attention to detail.
Nothing seems to have been over
looked or left for actual war to make
it necessary. Every regiment, every
brigade, or larger division. in fact
every portion of the army that may by
amy possibility be called upon to oper-
ate alone is provided with its cyclists
to act as couriers. guides and scouts.
These men are trained as carefully as
the horses of the cavalry. Numerically
they are an insignificant part of the
German army. yet so long as they are
part at all they are prepared for the
execution of any task that may be
Properly assigned to them.
This care of detail adds to the
strength of the army. strength that
is weakened again by the lack of vet
erans in the ranks. The German army
is composed principally of young men;
men of from 20 to % years of age, who
serve their necessary two years with
the colors and then step into the re-
serve. Compulsory military service has
not had tendency to give Germany an
army of veterans. Gen. Miles noticed
this fact when he reviewed the German
army during his trip to Europe The

puh!icans, both in the national legi3la-
ture and in the executive department
Mr.. Bryan is aware OF all this He is
aware thu. upon the very question
wnich he is now harping about
constitutional amendment to give to
congress the power to legislate against
corporations created by state legisla-
ticn-that the Republican party put
through the house of Representatives,
the popular branch of the government,
a provision to submit a constitution i
amendment and he knows perfectly
well that every prominent Democrat
in that house voted against it,
He knows perfectly well that the
leaders OF his own party in the senate
and the house made desperate efforts
to confer enormous advantages upon
the greatest monopoly existing in the
United States, the sugar combination,
and yet he charges the Republicans
with being guilty of aiding the trusts.
Mr.. Bryan knows that his talk about
Imperialism is humbug lie knows
there is nothing of the kind in the
United States. He knows perfectly
well that Imperialism is as impossible
of achievement as transmigration or
transformation of the human body and
spirit. He knows that his whole cry
of Imperialism is the cry of a dema-
gCgue, is the cry of hypocrite. NJ.
Hear is quite right. Although he say;
he did not say he called him hypo
critic, he proceeds to argue to show
that a certain condition is likely to
arise when he knows it will not arise
The only difference between Mr.. Hear,
az quoted by Mr.. Hanna, and Mr.. Hear
aa he quotes himself, is that Mr.. Hoar
describes the manners of a hypocrite
absolutely and graphically, but does
aGt put a label on it,
/ Behind it all stalks Bryan, a free
trader; Bryan, the enemy to protec-
ticn; Bryan, the enemy to the best ill
cc ests of the labor of the United
Sites, and Bryan, the great advocate
OF the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at IS to /. His election would
-tartle the world, and the prosperity
Of the last four years would be un-
done in an instant, and calamity
greater than this country ever saw
would follow.

soiidiv In Lin- For Mckinley - "More
Afraid of Bryanism Today Than os
Imperislism Tomorrow" says Mr.. Ivens
of New Y" X.
The wild claim is made that 80 per
cent OF the Gold Democrats who bolted
Bryan in 1896 will support him this
year. When you go to investigating
this claim among the Gold Democrats
of your LEGALITY you find, like the milk
sickness in Ohio in pioneer days, it is
always ever in the next county What
is true of Ohio is true of the rest of
the country. Mr.. William NJ. Ivens. a
prominent cold Democrat of New York
city, declares that the Gold Democrats
are solidly in line against Bryan, as
they were four years ago. Some OF
them do not like the Imperialism issue,
but, as Mr. Ivens says, the people are
infinitely more afraid of Organism to-
morrow than they are afraid of i'm
perialism day after tomorrow.
This is very pithy and suggestive
statement of the chief factors in the
campaign, and Mr.. Ivens skllfully am
plifies it in the following paragraph:
1T is not a theory that Mr.. Bryan
would revoIutionize our system of cur.
rency if he could. 1t is a certainty,
and all Of the consequences, that is,
disaster and ruin, are known. AS to
the consequences of what these gen
tlemen Cochran, SchurZ, ct all see fit
to call imperialism, they are theories,
pure and simple 1t will take the
bread out of no ones mouth; the shirt
off no ones back. 1t will be time
enough to check imperialism when it
makes some sign of real vitality.
Meanwhile it is not necessary to COM
nit financial suicide through fear CT
it."

BICYCLE ooRFs III rAg GERMAN ARMY.

German soldier must be made in two
years for he seldom chooses the army
as a vocation after his necessary term
of service has expired. Veteran SOL
d!ers add strength to any army, and
Germany has but few of them in the
ranks.
To sound the cry of war in the Ger
man army would be almost like sound
ing the cry of fire to a modern fire de-
partment. Ammunition in abundance
is ready for every gun, and wagons are
ready to transport il. The railway cars
in which the troops are to be trans
ported from point TO point stand on
the sidings, ready for occupancy at an
hours notice. Every gun, every lance,
every saber is cleaned and polished
ready for instant service. Nothing is
left until the last moment. The great
portable bakeries that will supply
bread to the troops in the field when it
is impossible to get it elsewhere are
ready, and even the cooks to bake the
bread are ready. In fact of all the
things that go to make an army COM
plete there is nothing left to buy, but
10 keep an army in this state of eff
cheney, to keep it supplied with modern
arms and modern equipments in this
age of invention when implements of
war are constantly changing costs Ger
many a high figure that in times of
peace seems almost unbearable to
many, but when war comes it is of in
esiimable value % the empire.
The German soldier is well-fed SOL
dier. He gets more than a pound and
half of fresh bread each day, when it
is possible to supply fresh bread, or a
little over pound of hard biscuit when
fresh bread cannot be had. He gets
nearly a pound of fresh or salt meat;
fourth of a pound of rice or other
! cereal foods three and "a quarter
! pounds of potatoes in addition to the
salt and coffee that is provided. 1t is
not so elaborate a menu as is usually
| provided for American soldiers, but it
compares favorably with the menus
supplied the troops of the other Euro
pean armies. 1t is supplied to both Of
| ficers and enlisted men.
Germany is to-day ready for war as
she has been for several years past, and
Emperor William can put we'll
equipped, well-disciplined, well-dFilled
army in the field.

On His Reteuti of the silver Issue.
Ths Gold Men Against HIM.
Mr.. Bryan remains true to ratio
of 16 to l also in his letter of accept
ance; in remaining consistent in this
matter, he however, forfeits all
chances of election, for he well knows
that majority of the American peo-
pie is against the sliver fraud. and
that nothing has occurred since 1896
to effect a change in the minds of the
people. But the gentleman from Ne
braska seems to be of the opinion that
he can handle the whole people in the
same manner he handled the conven-
tion at Kansas City-that he can force
them to approve of his free coinage
scheme.
This obstinacy on the part of Bry-
an is due to his dictatorial character.
During the period of 1896 to 1900 he
repeatedly declared, in speaking of the
sound money Democrats, that he
would punish them for their treach-
cry and humjliate them, and that only
after complete confession of the err
rors of their ways, would they again
be received back into the Democratic
fold
This ms ting assumption brought
about a still better organization Of
these Democrats for the present cam
paign. A few days ago they opened
their headquarters at indianapolis.
They have come out openly for McKin-
ley's reelection Bryan's renewed agi-
tation for a 5O-cent dollar will also
have its effect in other good money
circles.
In the first place, business men will
attempt to ward off this ru'nous at
tack. The republican campaign man
ager, Mr.. Hanna, will not have to COM
plain much longer about a lack of en-
thusasm. MIR, Bryan. in his letter OF
acceptance, made provision that the
Republican guardians of an honest
monetary system shall march in close
ranks.

NO USE FOR NEGROES.

OF that suppression, our brothers in

with Bryan professions of pity fol

IIIHAT has Germany with which
w to combat the hordes of China

" to combat the hordes of China ?
The answer to such question
IS: "Probahly the best trained and
best disciplined army in Europe"
Emperor William of Germany is the
military enthusiast of the European
monarchs: he glories in the army of
his empire; he plans carefully for its
betterment wherever betterment is
possible. As an enthusiastic soldier he
takes precedent over the yCIng czar of
Russia, and attempts to arouse an en-
thusiasm in his troops that no other
European army is capable of. The
English are excellent fighters, but they
lack the enthusiasm of the personal
leadership OF their sovereign: he
French are enthusiastic, but it is not
the enthusiasm born of personal
leadership of the president of the re-
public; history has proven the Russian
soldiers no mean adversares. but the
Russian monarch is first of all man
of peace caring more for the lasting
fame tnat comes from a beneficient at.
ministratiOn of the peaceful pursuits
of his government than from that ac-
corded by brilliant military leadership
Germany has not the largest army of
Europe. but its military forces are as
well or better equipped than those of
any other nation. and to it have been
added everything that may prove of
value TO an army in the field.
The watchword of the German army
is "Nimpiicity.' While in equipment it
rivals any of the armies of the world
it is an equipments that is excellent be.
cause of its simplicity. Its ordnance
is simple; its uniform is simple; it's
method of mobilization is simple. and
its drill and formations are simple.

NO AUTHORITY FOR IT.

Where is there one word Of warrant
in the constitution, or in the declara-
ton OF independence even, for the
Democratic plan Of an armed protec-
tOrate over the Philippine islands?
Bryan makes much noise about it, but
would not any assumption of such au-
thority, particularly by the president
or even by congress, over territory not
part of the United States Cand that
is exactly what the Democrats declare
to be the condition of the Philippine
archipelago be the most radical, com
plete and absolute assumption of auto
cratic authority, without an iota of
any kind of constitutional right? In
a word, would it not be pure and un-
mitigated Imperialism? Can any Dem
ocrat give any warrant in the laws or
precedents OF the United States for
their protectorate plan?

Democratic party by New York com.
mercial traveller the other day, as his
answer to their pretended concern
over the absence Of sufficient Federal
legislation to restrict trusts. His
query followed another one wondering
why the Democrats did not offer some

no matter whether they were in a
minority or a majority.
