ACCORDING to Rear Admiral
Royal B Bradford an opportunity
will soon be afforded the South and
Central American nations to give
evidence of their gratitude for the
protection afforded by the United
States Admiral Bradford has
Just returned from an inspection
of our northern coaling stations
and emphasizes his opinion that
others must be established further
south. He says they are absolutely
necessary in order to be thoroughly
prepared for the hostile operation
of an enemy, He suggests that
the nations south of US should af-
ford us every facility for establish
ing coaling sites on their territory,
since the United States has for
years protected them from foreign
encroachment While on his trip
Admiral Bradford visited the chain
of stations extending from French
mans bay on the Maine coast
around to the gulf on the east
coast; and from Alaska, on the
west side, as far down the Central
and South American countries as
it has been possible to secure land
for coaling depots. The work on
the new stations is progressing
satisfactorily.

NO ADEQUATE LAW.

Now if the detectives succeed in
finding the documents which Czol-
gosz says he sloughed into a sewer,
and it is shown conclusively that
the High Priestess of Anarchy"
is directly implicated in the plot
to kill the president, the most Sc
we're punishment should be meted
out to her and that right soon.
Up in Caspar, Wyoming, yester-
day, man was tarred and feath
cred by an angry mob for express
ing sympathy for Czolgosz This
act on the part of the people was
unlawful But the principles up
on which the band of indignant
men based their act spring eternal
in the breast of the patriot, and
laws should be enacted to cover
the point so that mobs would not
be necessary in such cases. The
average American cannot brook
anything that savors of treason,
then why should the laws enacted
by Americans be less stringent in
this respect
Any act or utterance that is in
the least hostile to American insti-
tutions should be held to be trea-
son, and our Legislators should act
accordingly, And it is to be de-
plored that at this time there is no
adequate penalty provided for the
deeds and utterances of Emma
Goldman.

it was one of the most enjoyable Reunions
Of old veterans it has ever been my privi-

A permanent organization was effected at
that Reunion and officers elected with a
view Of holding 4 Corps Reunion at each
National Encampment. Nothing was heard
of the society until the National Encamp-
ment was held In Philadelphia, when a Re
union OF the old corps at a prominent ar
mOry on Broad street was announced. Only
four answered TO roll call at the designated
time and place; one member each from
Washington City, Philadelphia, Milwaukee
and the writer OF this article. We regis
tered, and by invitation repaired to an ele-
gantly furnished room, where We held most
enjoyable Reunion for over two hours, talk
ing over old war times. Why only the soil
