A communication declaring war
against the United States has been
received at the war department but
no call for troops has been issued
and no excitement is visible in
Washington. The letter, which
was mailed in Chicago and which
might have been written by Dowie,
reads as follows;
ITO the Government Of the Unit
cd States
''In the year 1898 the Cod of This
Earth fought a battle with Spain
with the use of the United States
Army and Navy under the COM
mand of the Almighty God Of
Heaven, The government officials
of America, although well aware of
that, undertook to rob the Almighty
God of the honor of the Battle and
induced their servants TO turn down
the holy person Of the God Of This
Earth and brand him a liar and lun-
ATTIC and deprive him Of every means
Of making a living in this country.
which in all is a conspiracy against
the government of the Almighty
God Of Heaven. Therefore, the
Government of Almighty God is
compelled 20 Declare War against
the United States Of America and
punish that Gang of Conspirators az
they deserve As Supreme Ruler
Of the twonty-four oldest races,
have raised my Cody Government
flag over the international Flags Of
the twenty -four Oldest nations.
Yours,
GOD Oh TINS EARTH,
Representing the God Of Heaven.

The United States Civil Service
Retirement association, an organi-
zation formed a year or so ago to
secure congressional legislation for
the retirement on half pay of aged,
inflrm and incapacitated civil en-
ployes of the government without
expense TO the government, has re-
Gently been reorganized and now
seems in a fair way to accomplish
something. While the association
doesn't figure on asking congress to
provide the money to pay the pen
stoned employees, the bill it will
have introduced will provide for
government control, collection and
expenditure of the pension fund,
which is to be obtained by deduct
ing a small percentage--it is esti-
mated that three per cent. will be
sufficient-from the salary of each
civil employe of the government.
This plan seems to be free from the
objections which have killed all
previous attempts to secure civil
pension legislation, and no good
reason for congressional opposition
has yet been brought forward. 1t
only proposes authority for govern
ment employees to do what the EN-.
ployes of several big corporations in
this and other countries have been
doing for some time.

The Gazette undertakes to ehas-
tise Marshal Ed. Dunn FOR all the err
rors in city affairs in both commits
sion aud omission. Ed. has worked
faithfully for several years, and we
doubt very much if any man would
have done-better under all the cir
cumstances. He is not candidate
this year, and announces that he
will retire from the city work. The
PRESS thinks he is wise, because he
can do better for himself at some
thing else, but just the same it will
take. any other man some little time
and work to acquire the knowledge
Ed. Dunn has OF the waterworks
In the Press opinion he retires with
credit, from a position hard to fill,
and captious fault finding will not
detract from his record.

Curbstone Philosophy.

Don't kick II somebody is pros.
pering or getting along little bet.
ter than y0u, let him prosper.
Don't grunt and grumble. Say a
good word for him, look pleased,
and let it go at that. ii you see
your town is getting along nicely,
feel good about It. Help things
along. Shoye a little, and try to
get some OF the benefit yourself. Do
a little hustling yourself, but don't
kick. No man ever raised himself
up permanently by kicking someone
else down. We arc helped when We
help our brother. Be ready to give
a kind word; give it literally; It
won't cost you cent, and you may
want one yourself some day. How.
ever, II you must kick, lead yotir-
sell around behind the smoke house
and take good kick at yourself.
