SLEPT WITH A CORPSE.
Lieutenant Hanrahan's Silent Com
panion at Smokers Gap
Camp,

The snow was falling and the sky
overcast, just as at Valley Forge more
than century and a quarter ago. It
was the morning Of Washington's
birthday-a1d the occasion and the
day were peculiarly calculated to stir
the patriotic heart and quicken the
reminiscent mind of the old soldier.
Lieut.. Hanrahan stroked his dropping
military mustache, as he RECALLED a
group of interested listeners with
stories of army life. He was telling,
in his inimitable style, of a memoir
able agement under Gen. Sykes,
when in came the veteran with the
withered hand. He was careless in at
tire, and his nose resembled the wan
ing light on a ragged reef. He gave
the countersign, and, having success
fully passed the picket-ines. advanced
confidently toward the sanitary chief,
whom he saIuted with mock dignity.
Hanrahan surveyed the intruder
gravely for a moment, then burst into
hearty laughter.
''You aloive YETI" he queried. sol
thot We wor did long tonne ago. Whoy,

be 'distiilery' in ye're case
The soldier with the withered hand
and robust breath tilted forward and
warmly shook the lieutenant's hand.
''Ye're the only old boy in my reg

brother. Shay, conferdenshully, I've
got to go up to Thirtieth street."
''Thet's none O. moy bizness."
The soldier drew closer and whis-
pered in Hanrahan's ear, first excus-
ing himself to the assemblage.
9Th ould, ould .shtory." remarked
Hanrahan, as he resignedly reached
for his little black purse. "Kyar fare,

want. Oh 1noight es well pinshun We
off an be dun wild it. Here's ye're
Kyar fare-it'll carry we both ways.
Be careful an don't take tn wrong

The soldier with the withered hand
patted his old comrade Familiarity on
the back, made an extravagant bow
to the assemblage, and, in a voice of
assumed pathos, said:
''Thish amt (hic) tn first time
thish brave man has saved my life
Hanrahan stood in the attitude of
command.
''Now,'' said he, ''attinshun! Roight,
face! Furrud, march! Gud-boye, an
LUX out We don't git off at tn wrong
strate.''
The soldier went out with as true
military precision as was possible IN
der the circumstances.

hearted Hanrahan, "wuz wild me in

', If any, one doubts the demoralizing
results which follow the. use of force,

which has taken place in the views Of
many of our people during the last

can, the far-reaching effect which a
large: increase in the permanent army
would. have upon the thoughts, the
purposes and the character of our
people.
Our government derives its Just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned, and its strength from the peo-
pie themselves. We cannot afford to
veal ken the governments reliance
upon the people by cultivating the
idea that all the work of war must be
done by profess sional soldiers. The
citizen is a safer law-maker when he
may be called upon to assist in the
enforcement of the laws, and legisla-
tion is more likely to be just when the
government relies largely upon volun-
teers, because the support. is surest
when the government is SO benehcent

Germ. I have good reason for beliex~
ing 1t. But why have they not ts1e
moral courage frankly and publicly
to say so? Why do they not ia tn.
open light of day appeal 10 the rsre>t-
dent, aud to congress. and to ct,e.ie
party to give up that accursed '>cri.zs~
inal aggression, and to do ttsss
which is just aud right aud would b.
most honorable to the American pe<,-
pie? Is their moral sense so epslar.a,
by wretched party spirit that it must
humbly cover under dictation whict.
they cannot but detest and be ashamed
OF? Surely they could do no te,t..r
service to themselves and TO there
country thaa by emancipating tilei,.
consciences like men.
You will observe that in recitiuu
the acts of our government said,
"We have done this" and I'VE have
done that" I used that form of ex-
preston for the sake of brevity. Ia
justice to the American people Il
should be corrected. No: it was not
the American people that insti gated or
even sanctioned by their assent the;
betrayal of American principles ir
the attempt to subjugabe a foreign
population and in rushlessly destroy
ing them. Those things have indee;t
been done in the name Of the American
people; but it may justly be said that
the history of Machiayelian politics
shows few instances Of more un,
scrupulous confidence game THAI
that of which the American peou1e
have in this case been made the VIC
tim by means of an artful censorship

equally unscrupu1ous contrivapces-
What the American people reans

I am firmly convinced if the question

jority of the American people would

Militarism means protection for the

Dor and throwing the burden of their

men to the strict obedience fitting in an
absolute monarchy, and uniting them
for the independence of thought and
action that makes q good citizen of a.

sion of the feelings of sympathy and
