Miles and His Reputation.

The providence Journal, a republi-
can paper, referring to General Miles,
says: ellis course has not been
dignified and it has caused him to lose
steadily in reputation. "
Well, General Miles said the beef
was bad, and it developed that the
beef was bad. Shafter was pursuing
waiting policy at Santiago. Miles
took the bull by the horns and ordered
him to "wade in" Shafter did "wade
in," and the result is q matter of
history. Miles referred to Schley as
"the hero of Santiago bay" 1t is
true the president and the secre tary
Of war rebuked Miles for the reference,
but the fact remains, everthelesS,
that in the opinion of nine-tenths of
the American people, Schley was and
is 1.-THE hero of Santiago bay"
Miles said that the war in the
Philippines was being. conducted with
marked severity" Secretary of War
Root said it was being conducted on
s'humane lines" rebuked General
Miles for his statement, and to the
rebuke by the secretary of war was
added an even stronger rebuke by Mr..
Roosevelt.
But within a very few days after
this rebuke was administered to Gen
eral Miles, revelation showed not only
that the war in the PHILIPPINES was
being conducted with marked
severity" but that the secretary OF
war knew that to be the fact for al
least several weeks before he rebukeC
General Miles for stating the truth.
General Miles may have been alto
gether too plain and blunt in his
statements of fact; but with all bis
bluntness he has not lost anything oil

opinion of the American people,

With the above mentioned principles

One may think this need not be, as
we have compulsory school law.
Surely that one has never tried if it is
compulsory. Under this law children
cannot be compelled to attend school
if the parents are not willing that
they should go, for if the process of
the law is tried the father may say he
is intending to send the child the
last three months. The law accepts
that, the plaintiff paying the costs.
It may be tried again at the beginning
of the last three months. But since
the law accepts private instruction
this will be the fathers plea. The
only cure for this will be a Iigidly en-
forced law requiring every school boy

things IN life, to do some good deed
However small 1t may seem to Us If is
noble If it is honestand sincere. it will
make some heart glad as some of the
great deeds of eur presidents George
Washington. a bralam Lincoln and
others of our great men have done TO
gladden. the hearts of the people.
And now think of all the wonderful
inventions and discoveries that have
been made, they-never would have
been made If it were not for the re-
ward they hoped for. the desire to be
known in the world, and to make
America the leading nation in the
world
America would never have been
discovered if it had not been for the
hope and desire fCoiumbus to prove
to the people that the earth is round.
There is not one human soul on this
whole earth that does one single thing
without the desire to receive some
good from it.
Then our forefatherS, think what
they accomplished by hope, theirs and
our liberty, if they had had no hope
they would not have endeavored to
gain liberty, and we would not be the
free nation, we are today.
Morse the inventor of the telegraph
hoped to be able to invent something,
SO that we could talk to persons at a
distance, that never could be spread
more swiftly, and thus through hope
he invented the telegraph we today
use to fash intelligence to people
across t he deep ocean.
Without hope life would not be
worth living, it would be to the
human soul as nothing for it would be
simply stationary. We could not look
to the bright future, that will perhaps
make the very being happy, the whole
earth to tremble with happiness, that
is to be. There is not one person on
this whole ear tn that does not hope,
that does not long for something he
does not possess something that he has
not yet attained.
Oh how conSoling hope is to the
miserable soul, it sootheS the dreary
thoughts and rests the wretched
mind so that it is able to endure
better the misery that must come to
all. than it would otherwise be able to
sustain.
The convict too, that is condemned
to death hopes on till the bitter end,
to the very last moment he is expect
ing something to happen that may
| yet happen to free him.
There is no better medicine for the
sick than hope, when we hear it said
There is no hope" we know that the
dear one is nearing death, for is there
not hope still lingering about the
hearts of those dearest TO the SICK
one, to the very last minute. Then
when she has passed away there is
nothing more soothing than the
thought, the desire of meeting her in
heaven.
There is nothing that puts oul
weary thoughts at rest as quietly and
easily as hope. 1t spreads bright rays
over every dark cloud. 1t sends peace
and happiness to every soul.
All the many many dark hours thai
could be made bright by this little
word hope, if we would only receive
it.

FOOTSTEPS ECHOING THROUGH THE
CORRIDORS OF TIME"
John S. Garberson.
Many are the footsteps that have
fallen throughout all the ages, ever
since the creation of the world, and
their echoes have been reverberating
through out all these centuries, to
warn us of the dangers through which
the ancientS have more or less safely
passed, and yet are we so backward in
bettering ourselves by their failures?
But some one may say 1--WE now have
the most glorious system Of education
by which anyone has ever had the
privilege of preparing himself for the
most responsible positions. "
But let that one pause q moment
and we will reflect together upon the
causes which have brought about the
system employed by US in educating
our youths. 1 would not have you
think that I am trying to lower our
own educational system, and exalt
that of the ancients, for that is not
the cases. But l shall attempt to
point out some of the DEFICIENCIES of
ours, and to substitute in their places
some of the practices of the ancients,
which would greatly improve our
system if we would but adopt them.
Indeed we are inclined to deSpiSe some
of the existing institutions in some
countries but there the people recog-
nize the fundamental truths which
the Great Teacher taught, and which
our own American youths consider no
part of their education.
In China the despotism of the es-
| ta5lished order of things controls the
individuals movements. The Caina-
man must conform to the practices
that have existed ever since the days
of Confucius. They are a dishonest,
suspicious, and hyrocritical people.
| By them woman kind is held in con-
tempt. They are Of such disposition
that once in power they are apt to
become despotic. You see what in
| fiuence the youths have around them.
| Their minds are not trained to work
within themselves. to make their
brains a means whereby new things
may be worked out, but in conforming
to the established order they simply
learn what has been learned over and
over again. thus making of their
brains a storehouSe instead of a power.
These are some of their faults but
have they no virtues? They must be
granted as posse ssing some genius for
we re indebted to them for paper,
gunpowder, printing and the mariner S
compass. These are some of the most
potent factors in the commercial
world So they have given US these
four things which We could not dc
without. They demand of the youth
/ pure sincerity and filial obedience to
parents and superiors. Do we? The
average American youth literally con-
strueS that 1.-THE child is the father of

Change In Presidents Signature
Stress Of business and the dearth OF
time will lead to change in President
Reosevelt's signature. says the Pitts
burg Dispatch. He has always been
accustomed to write out his first name
in full, but he finds that it will save
him about so per cent Of time and
trouble to make it simply T. Roosevelt.
Where a man mas to sign his name
about one thousand times a day it
makes a big difference. There Is a
man in the office of the auditor for the
poStoftice department at Washington
who, it is said. owes his appointment
largely to the fact that his signature
contains but five letters. He is Second
Deputy Auditor N. Chew. He does
little but sign his name, and he does
that for about eight hours a day
steadily.
