Tips on the Armies.


The British soldier receives shil-
ling a day; the United States soldier
the equivalent of Is Cd. The American
soldier has better rations, but Tommy
Atkins has a more liberal allowance
for clothing. In other respects the
conditions are about the same, except
that the British government pays pen
sions only to those who are entirely
disabled by wounds or sickness. With
all her wars the pension list of Great
that of the United States. The annual
appropriation of our congress for pen
s1ons would support the whole British
army. One sees retired soldiers en-
ployed in various capacities. They are
given preference in business houses.
They are used by the district messen-
ger companies and receive certain priv
ileges and considerations from the po-
lice and municipal authorities that are
not granted to ordinary people. 1t is
common for bank messengers, janitors
of buildings, private watchmen and
other men engaged in light employ
ment to wear military medals of honor,
which are always accepted as a good
recommendation. You see newsstands
and fruitstands at the street corners
and in the parks attended by men with
similar decorations, or with empty
coatsieeves, and such privileges are es-
teemed of great value

TIE STATE LAND BOARD.


The state land board can never be IN
effective institution until it shall have
been legislated into bureau by itself
and freed from the laws which hamper
It. One Of the most important OF all the
states interests, the Office is at the
mercy and caprice Of bungling state Of
fcials The trouble is that three Of the
officers Who constitute that board are up
on nearly every state board-board of
equalization, board Of audit. land board,
capitol board, public education board
and what not. The governor and attor
ney general are % loaded with duties
upoa these boards that they not only
have to neglect other duties. bat come to
meetings poorly informed and in NO
mood or degree Of information to act
wisely. The register is made little more
thaa . clerk. He can advise, but can do
sothing. One register We know Of could
not even advise without being sharply
Informed Of his subordinate position. Ii
Is needless to say il was not the writer
for Governor Adams courted advice.
The clerical force is always there BY
partisan interest and regardless Of fitness
TOO often. Civil service rules should ap-
ply there fos it requires fully : year tor
q clerk to be informed Of even 1.-THE Of
tie many details touching leasing rates,
the embarrassing question Of improve
ments, water rights, etc. The Office has
no attorney to proceed against delin
quent leasers. 1t has never proceeded
against their bondsmen. The interests
have grown far beyond the appreciation
Of legislatures. They should be govern.
ed, snder rules, by the register, who
sAosld, By reason of extensive knowl-
edge Of land questions, be chosen BY con-
vestioas and elected by the people. He
should name his own Office force and
they shosld remain there through shift
Ing administratioos 20 Ioog as they eff
eieatly discharge their duties. John
Joyce. the present register. is the most
capable one the Office ever had and Is
given less authority than any OF bis
predecessors. He Is hampered by too
many meetings, too much fussing over
petty details By the governor, attorney
geasral. secretary of state and superin.

to US. Although there are many ancient
things OF great interest to be seen in your

of your young men could not grow up
with the West-its possibilities and op-
portunities are so much greater TO them
financially, even with small capital, than
in a conservative city like yours.

mistaken idea OF the people. their man

count for SO much with the Annapolitans.
really wish you who know something OF
US in the far West, would write few
articles on this subject-it would be an
eye opener to some of your citizens
Please excuse my interest in this matter,
but | heard such absurd remarks on the

thanking you for the promptness of your
