two or three hundred guests during
the busy season and its large dining

more-the latter being the cottagers

important task for a twenty-five, year
old fellow; but Keyes was thoroughly
capable chap. Moreover his two previ-

Two or three days later Keyes went
out for solitary row on the lake. He
had had a busy morning. First the
pastry cook had burnt his fingers so
badly that he was laid up and the
guests were complaining at the alb

colored porter had been having rough

and Keyes had managed to separate
them to the great disarrangement of
his own attire.

That D-.- -----~---e ..--y y-sl autnof- ized by congress may not seem at present just what 1t is or what 1t will cost to the country will soon begin to show itself and then what righteous howl of indignation will go up from the people. The way in which they will be mulcted may be judged by the bill recently introduced in the house calling for an appropriation of $71,- OOO,OUO for the navy, with an author kation for additional naval construc- ton which will swell the total to nearly $1OO.OOO,OOO When 1t is stated that the ordinary annual expenditure of the government in the first years of ex-President Harrison's administra- tion was $500, O,OOO,OOO, we can form an idea of what imperialism will cost us before We get through with it. We have only begun nibbling at it and al ready an appropriation is asked for one department amounting to one third of the total of the sum needed to defray all the expenses of the gov ernment twelve years ago. When the cost of the increased army is added to the appropriation for the navy, the country will have a nice penny to pay for experimenting in imperialism. But the money cost of the increased army, great as 1t Is. will be the least objec- tlonable feature about it. The inn mense patronage the new army will place at the disposal of the president is big with danger to the country. An interruptions man occupying the office of president will have it in his power to use this patronage as a species of corruption fund. Take, for example the HOO life jobs that have been just placed at the disposal of President Mckinley. This Is about the number of officers that viii have to be appoint ed under the army reorganization bill. Already the war department is de luged with applications for major ships captaincies, neutenancies, etc. etc.
