JUST WHAT WAS EXPECTED.

We are glad of an opportunity to say Q good word for General Funston. He has had the pluck t, tell the the truth about ut teen, a thing which cannot be said of some older officers of the army. He de- scrfbes in vigorous terms the demoraliz- this matter. This was hardly to be ex- pected of any Kansas man.-Hartford (Conn.) Times.
 We have never been dead stuck on Funston, but his recent deliverance on the canteen question was full of hard facts. largely derived from personal ob- servation. And it is not amiss to observe that what he says, this long after the canteens were abolished, Is exactly in line with the position taken by The Ad- yertiser when the question was up before Congress. What he asserts to have oc- cured is just what we predicted would result from the experiment.
 Or course those real advocates of tenn perance, in the army as well as elsewhere, were sincere in the belief that if the canteen system was abolished, the sol- diers would be physically. morally and financially benefited, but those of us who had army experience knew better. We knew that when a soldier wants a drink he will have it if 1t is obtainable. and no rules, regulations or penalties will prevent him. If it were possible to locate army camps and posts so that no spirit ous liquors could be brought within reach the abolition of canteens would be a move in the interests of nd might be defended by all lovers of temperance, but this is not possible. The advocates of abolition now know, as they ought to have known all the time that wherever an army camp is permanently establish ed, it will soon be surrounded with tap- rooms and dives of every grade-and gen. orally of the very lowest grade. At such places the soldiers are drugged, robbed debauched and infected with disease, and no human laws or regulations can pre- vent it.
 The temperance people, many of them at least, will take issue with General Funston, as they have taken issue with all others who opposed the abolition movement but they cannot change facts, and they ought to be able to see and un- derstand that it is a choice of evils. It is not a question of making absolute total abstainers of our soldiers, but of allow ing them to obtain their drinks at such places, in such manner, and of such quality as will do least harm to their pockets, their morals and their health. In other words, shall they get the liquor or beer. which they will have in spite of all human regulations, at a canteen which Is controlled by the army officials, where both the quality and quantity, as well as the price, are under the surveil- lance of the officers, or shall they drink at places where the drinks are of the vilest, the company of the lowest, and the results necessarily demoralizing. debas- ing and physically ruinous?
 These are really the questions to be con- sidered, and we maintain that it is not a question of temperance or of intemper- ance but is question of conserving the health and morals of the army, and that can best be done by properly guarded canteen system.

Stopping Fever in Havana.

Sanitary Report for August
 Havana and. so far as we have been able to ascertain, the rest of the island, have continued free from yellow fever and from smallpox; though fatal case of the former disease came in on the $. S. Vigilancia from Vera Cruz on the 4th of August, and died at Las Animas hos pital on the 7th. The success which has the propagation of the disease during the conveyance of patients from vessels in the harbor or from the immigration camp at Triscornia to Las Animas hos pital as well as during their detention at that hospital in this season of the year is not only highly satisfactory to us as showing that our vigilance has not abated since the inauguration of the Cuban republic. but also as an addi- tional demonstration of the fact that in order to attain that result all that is needed is to guard the patient from be- ing bitten by mosquitoS.

Democracy in Montana.

Chicago Chronicle Dem)
 The quarrel in the Democratic party in Montana between the Clark and the IHenze factions has resulted in split, and the latter, embracing the Populists, the labor party, the socialists, and the Heinze Republicans, will d; once place a new political organization in the field.
 With these elements of Democracy" eliminated from his following. Mir. Clark will be under the necessity of getting along with only the Bitter Root middle of-the-roaders the Anaconda Jackson ians, the Clark Republicans, the indepen- dent laborites, the ancient order of com munsts. the woman suffragists, and the original free silver men.
 In some respects the various factions of the so-called Democracy of Montana re- semble the curious Republican groups which train under the Addicks banner in Delaware. The free use of money to the exclusion of principle and tradition is likely to he as fatal to Democracy in the one States as it has been to Republican, ism in the other.

The Birmingham Ledger remarks that loses kind of literature that no one else can supply" That is true. and the read ing world is to be warmly congratulated If Zola had died before he wrote any thing. it would have been better. He had brilliant talents, beyond a doubt, and he was a fearless writer, but We know of ID writer of modern days who so con- pletely and pe.sistently set at defiance all the laws of decency as this one did. Some, at least, of his books were of a character which should have denied them the use of the malls. The world is none the better for such literature as he con tributed.

Denver Post.
 No such simple. safe and inexpensive method of mail remittances has ever been devised. and its advantages to the masses of the people are so many and so great that the only wonder is that there should be any opposition to the plan. Postmaster-General Payne favors the scheme as does also Auditor Castle of the Treasury Department The utility and simplicity of the Post Check has ap- pealed to nearly everybody who has given the scheme any thought. It has the en- dorsement or financial experts and of business men who are dependent on the mails for the receipt or dispatch of mon- ey. particularly in small sums, to con siderable extent. It ought to impress Congress favorably. for 1t is In the inter est of the people. Such being the case, Congress ought not to pay too much heed to those who are opposing the introduce ton of this form of money on no more worthy grounds than that it will give them little more work and trouble. The pending bill IS clearly one in the interest of the masses. and the indications are that it's adoption cannot ultimately be

 The conditions of employment nowadays discourage ignorance. Intelligence and some degree of education are indispen- sable in almost every industry This is well understood by representative work tngmen, and if they were not 90 fortun- ate as to enjoy educational advantages in their youth they are not withholding these advantages from their children.

He will have his own ideas about economies and social conditions. Knowledge will bring power to him, and the question then will be. How will he use this power.
