confronted by the grim spectre of poverty. she

There is something pathetic about the brave ig-

Chirps the sparrow, gay and brown,
welcome! Welcome, every body!
Jolly place this Squirrel Town"
Honey bees the fields roaming;
Daisies nod and lilies blow;
Soon Jack FrOst-the Saucy fellow
Hurrying, will come. know
Crimson leaves will light the woodland;
And the nuts come pattering down.
Winter store they all must gather
Busy place, then, Squirrel Town
Blowing, clustering, sweeps the north wind
Seei the snow is flying fast
flushed the brook and hushed the sparrow,
For the summer time is past
Yet these merry little fellows
Do not fear old Winters frown;
Snug In hollow trees they're hiding
Quiet place is Squirrel Town.

SQUIRREL TOWN.

Where the oak trees tall and stately
Stretch great branches 10 the sky,
Where the green leaves toss and futter
AS the summer days go by.
Dwell a crowd OF little people,
Ever racing up and down,
Bright eyes Glancing. gray tails whlsking;
This is known Squirrel Town.
Bless me- what a rush and hustle,
AS the happy hours speed by!
Chatter, chatter-chatter, chitter.

Credit will be due to democrats
in Congress for whatever reduction
OF war taxes the country gets. Tn.
republicans fully intended to XII
the bill in conference, but whrt
they found out that all Of the dem
ocrats in the House, and enough
republicans To make majority.
were determined to head off thar
scheme, the leaders at once ordered
that compromise be patched NJ
in conference between the Hous,
and Senate bills. That compromist
will not, Of course, in any sense.
be a democratic measure, but y,
will make some reduction in war
taxes that would not have been
made, if the democrats had been
less aggressive.
Senator Morgan, in the minorit,
report of the Committee On Foreigr
Relations on resolution declaring
that the ratification of the Hae
Pauncefote treaty is not condition
precedent to the construction Of
the Nicaragua Canal, and that the
U. s. should proceed with that work
regardless of the Clayton BuIwer
agreement, which was adversely re
ported by party vote, makes the
positive charge that Mr.. McKinle,
caused the resolution to be adverse
" reported. Concerning the inAu
ence of Mr.. Mckinley with the re.
publican members of the commit.
tee, and his right to sGy what is
expedient for them to do, Senator
Morgan said "This claim was
made in the committee, and his
(Mr. McKlnley's) views as to the
expedienoy of action were stated as
grounds of objection to the resolu-
tions. From this view of the duty
Of the Senate, / wholly dissent.
Many republican Senators who have
claimed to be for the Nicaragua Ca
nal are now under suspicion. The
claim that action on any legislation,
relating to the Nicaragua Canal
while the Hay Pauncefote treaty is
pending would be discourteous to
England, is very plausible bluff,

the Army and Navy Journals
worthy Of notice row, in a few
weeks it will be prophecy
eff the sale Of liquor is forbidden
in military posts throughout the
country, every post or army camp
will be surrounded by the lowest
and most vicious class Of saloons.
These are known in army circles
as hog ranches, and the term fits
them exactly. They are saloons
that are set up on the boarders OF
military pos's, which are frequent
ed by abandoned women of the
lowest type, and where the vilesl
liquors are sold. They completely
surround the military posts on the
frontier and sap the very life and
strength of the men without giving
any return.
every army officer who has had
any experience with those hog
ranches knows to what extremes of
degradation they draw the soldiers.
Nightly carousals of the most dis.
graceful kind ensue. The men get
too drunk to resarn to their posts.
They become unfit fof dGty, and
the military authorities are power
less to prevent it. Stationed just
outside the post line, the proprie-
tors of these places DEFY the r,ilita-
~ and reap immense profits from
the men who spend their pay in the
evil resorts"
The canteen destroyed the hog
ranch. The new army bill will
resurrect it. The canteen not only
encouraged, it actually enforced
temperance. The hog ranch will
reinstate the dispeusation OF the
dead fall, the dance house, and the
gambling den at all our army posis
In order to be able to say that this
great and good government no
