With martial tread learned long ago.

And bless their memories as we go
Safe to the homes they died to save?

The outlook is that Dr. Kennery of
New York will never be tried again for
the murder Of Dollie Reynolds. His
three trials have cost Kings county
more than slOO. 900 and each has shown
growing sentiment in favor of the
prisoner. There is very large and
apparently growing number of citizens
in and out of New York state who do
not believe that he was ever guilty OF
the crime with which he is charged.
The chances are that a fourth trial
would result in his acquittal. 1t Is
probable that the district attorney Will
decide that it is not advisable to pur-
sue the case further, and that in n
few days, Doctor Kennedy will be n
free man. The public has learned to

The American Beef Supply.

The price of beef continues to ad-
vance. When three cents a pound are
added to this commodity in Chicago it
means considerably larger advance
in sections of the country sufficiently
remote from that city to make the item
of freight substantial factor in de-
termining retail prices.
The time is not far distant-indeed
beef can be raised at good margin
of profit on our eastern farms.
Many things have operated to de-
crease the supply of Western beef.
There has been in recent years a
steady decrease in the number of
range cattle in this country, amount
ing. it is said, to fully fifty per cent.
Meanwhile the demand for beef has
steadily increased. England, with her
immense army to feed in South
Africa. has been heavy purchaser,
and the United States government has
troops in the Philippines The pas
turage is giving out partly as re-
suit of the growing inrOads of settlers
and partly because of over feeding. The
growing Of the sheep industry has
crowded the cattle industry Not long
ago, writer in a leading American
magazine. commenting upon the grow
ing scarcity of beef cattle in this
country. ventured the prediction. that
the American people would soon be
importing beef from the Argentine Re
public to supply their home demands,
BEFORE this comes about, however. we
may hope to see very general revival
OF the cattle raising industry in the
eastern states. The building IN of
such an industry may require con-
siderable change in the character NJ

Bravery. Manliness. Mercy.

These three qualities, says a writer
terized the work of the American
soldiers in China to Il degree that has
won for this country the full conf
dence of the unfortunate empire and
the respect of the whole world. He
might have gone further and said that
these have ever been dominant quail
ties of the American soldier and true
traits of the American in peace as well
as in war. For century and a quar-
with its generosity to fallen foes. Most
striking examples of this in our latest
war have been the courtesy and con-

Though youngest among great ma

American soldiers in China when the
Europeans We're INDUCING in orgies of
crime and looting has been frequently
commented upon and is deserving of
strong and continued praise Their
splendid conduct was worthy men
fighting under the flag of a republic
founded on the principles of justice
equality, kindness and mutual trust
The European courts, shamed by the
excuses and brutalities of their
troops, after the fall of Pekin, ex-
planned that the soldiers got beyond
the control of their officers; not a very
satisfactory explanation. How much
better to have soldiers who show no
disposition to get beyond the control of
their officers for the purpose of COM
hitting robbery, rape and murder.
Moreover. after all, it is the most
profitable course to be fair and merci-
full. The Evening Post writer does not
touch upon this, nor was ii in the
minds of the brave and manly wearers
of our uniform in the Orient, but it is
worth mentioning in this connection.
The allies of Europe sneered at what
they called the softness and weakness
of America, alleging that the Chinese
could respect only those who treated
them with fierce brutality. 1t will be
remembered that the Americans did
not not join in the call for Chinese
heads, and for the orgies of blood
which We're demanded in the name of
just reprisals. On the contrary, they
protested as far as possible against
the wholesale slaughter, particularly
by the punitive expeditions sent by the
allies after the fall of Pekin. And the
result of this mercifulness became
quickly apparent when the viceroys pc
titioned that the army of occupation.

it was alone to our minister and mill
tary commander that the Chinese no
bles gave token of friendship and re-
spect for the country which they rep
resented, and offered unsolicited more
than was being refused to the Euro
pean countries. And the point is that
when the troubles in China have quoted
down the way for American trade will
be made much easier than for that of
any other country.
