Since the improvements began at the
city park the place is fast becoming q
favorite evening resort for the people of
Dodge City. Nearly every evening the
park is filled by people who find it very
pleasant place to go for airing. 1t is
also the scene of numerous private picnic
parties, and the favorIte drive of the

READY TO BEGIN WORK.
Ladies Improvement League is Now
in Working Order.


The Improvement League which was
first started about two weeks ago, has
been permanently organized. The ladies
hope by suggesting certain improvements
to have considerable done in that way.
By calling attention to needless defects
their remedy will often be accomplished.
The average citizen has enough pride to
help keep the town clean and beautiful,
but sometimes people grow careless.
The following officers have been
elected: President, Mrs. Whitworth;
vice president, Mrs. Finley; secretary,
Miss Mary Hale; treasurer, Mrs. Gala
gher. The executive committee is COM
posed of the officers and Mesdames
Hoover, Mootz and Wing. A committee
composed of Mesdames Whitworth, Rush
and Finlay was selected to confer with
the city council upon matters which the
ladies believe are important to the town.

evils lynching is by far the. worst, not
only in itself but In its effects. sThe
water cure is practiced among popu-
latton already brutalized. These awful
fortunes in this country are fast brutaliz-
ing whole groups of our population.
There should be neither water cure
nor other cruelty in the Philippines and
there should be no lynchings in the
United States, but members or represen-
tatives of civil governments that fail to
do their duty, not once but thousands Of
times, should temper with moderation
their criticisms of an army which in the
anger and heat of hostility has committed
some crimes.
Scores of soldiers and officers have been
punished for crimes against Filipinos,
but when and where have lynchers been
punished?
Senators from states that are utterly
unable or unwilling, and perhaps both to
enforce the civil law and punish the
.wretches guilty Of the most shocking
crimes now committed in the civilized
world. will do well to look to their own
constituencies and ascertain whether they
have any license to pose as humanitari-
ans the enemies Of cruelty and the critics
Of methods of warfare.

DREADFUL MILITARISM

It is dreadful the way this great ma
ton, this land of the free, is descending
into the depths OF militarism. Another
fateful step in that direction was taken
Saturday when Secretary Root, gave in
structions to reduce the army another TO-
900 men. Just think of the awful burden
this country is carrying. With 100000
of people in the United States proper and
about 10000, 900 elsewhere, it is now sup
porting an army of $1,000 men. Can this
nation, though it is the wealthiest in the
world, stand the expense? How much
longer can it struggle along? On, for
those good old days when with a popula-
tion of 100000, we had an army of only
10000! ,:s,. -
They have gone, gone with the pristine
virtue and the halcyon early days of the
republic, when all men were honest, all
women virtuous and even army con-
tractors were patriots. Then there, was
one soldier to every thousand people.
Now there is one soldier to every LOO
people.

THE EVENING NEWSPAPER
From the Butte Inter Mountain

From the Butte Inter Mountain
In the rapid development of newspapers in
America noticeable feature is the substan-
tial lead which the evening newspaper has
taken as against the morning newspaper. It
is not many years since that the advantage as
to popularity, which meant circulation and
influence, was all on the side of the news
paper issued dn the morning. This has all
been changed, and to-day the newspapers of
largest circulation and influence are the eve
ming papers There are conspicuous exam
pies of this in almost every city in the United
States. In New York the Evening Sun has
almost double the circulation of the morning
Sun, and the same is true of the World. Chi
cage has a notable example of the pre- emf
nence of the evening newspaper in the News,
the circulation Of which is not approached
by any morning paper. The same examples
may be seen in Philadelphia, Boston, Buffalo,
Pittsburg, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, St. Louis
and scores of other cities.
This growth of the evening newspaper was
inevitable, inasmuch as 1t is based on sub
stantial reasons. The evening newspaper is
issued at time when people have time to
read 1t. Besides, it carries the rews to the
reader ':hot from the bat. /" as it were, and
he has it while it is new. which is its value
and it's interest. If it is big piece of news,
the morning paper will have it the following
morning, perhaps in an amDifed form. but
it will be stale beer as against champagne.
Anyhow, the fzz will have fzzled, the bloom
will be off the rye.

In the one feature Of the days news. the
markets, would not be satisfied to wait until

there Is another market and other quotations

the market thereof. ~ Z
These remarks are made in no disparage-
ment of the morning newspaper, which is a
valuable and useful vehicle. IT. occasionally
has a piece of news which occurred after the
evening newspaper is on the streets, but 1t
does not make a business Of this. STILL as we
have said, the morning newspaper is a useful
vehicle and If it were eliminated from social
economy I'VE would miss It. We wish it long

that he could do his calling on Monday or

Hulda was having a hard time of it. In her
heart of hearts she could not quite decide
which one she loved best. Hans, she had to
confess, had some advantages which weighed
with her. Mr.. Barton, the man who owned

liked Hans Besides. Hans could speak
Swedish, and she couldn't deny that it was
pleasant to talk with him in the accents of
the dear old home she had left so far behind.
But whenever his plain, open countenance,
with the blue eyes twinkling below the yellow
hair, Was pictured in her mind she blamed
him for being little too ordinary. She could
see a dozen such any Sunday in the little
Swedish church. Now, with a man who wore
long blue coat with a fve-oointed star on
the front OF it and carried a mahogany club
it was different. No who looked at him
could fail to see that he, being a part of the
government, was superior to the common r-n
of men.
James had told her that he was 1.-The right
arm Of the law, and she had looked her ad-

as she had Hans, and he so good to her.

THE PHILIPPINE BILE y,

The Philippine civil government bill
to morrow afternoon. tr. ~
This measure of very great importance
has not had the Intelligent attention be-
slowed upon. it which it deserves. Its
purpose is to give to the people of the
philippines a civil government which will
ultimately with additional features, take
the place of the military government,
wherever peace and order are est ablished.
It embodies the principle OF representa-
tive government Filipinos to be repre-
sented in the executive council and in
popular assembly to serve two years, and
it makes provision for the sale OF public
lands and the development OF the re-
sources of the islands under safeguards
against monopoly. The measure, IN OPP
Grafton in all it's provisions, Will be
strong influence in the promotion. OF
American ideas stimulative of true prog
ress. r. .-a#s
It has, however, few provisions which
should be very fully discussed before the
bill is put upon its passag e. One OF these,
is the provision deliberately made to es-
tablish free silver coinage in the islands
for the production of a so-called dollar
worth, as to purchasing value, about As
cents This is not very good way to
begin the civil government of the Islands
under our flag. 1t is the acme Of incon-
sistency, for we ought to give the Fill
pinos the best of everything we have to
give them, especially in the way of money
circulation. The senate ought to be
ashamed of itself for not voting down
this bastard dollar clause 1t has re-
ceived the minimum Of attention and even
Senator Lodge has blandly defended 1t.
The question of franchise to investors
of capital lands, whether they shall be
effective at once or their operation be
deferred until hostilities shall cease,
ought to be decided in favor of the former,
as such course would introduce industrial
activity at once in the islands, which
would be of large benefit to the Filipinos,
affording them opportunities for work.
But unfortunately these and other import
ant features of the civil government bill

the senate has been occupied most of the
time hearing furious attacks upon the
army in the Philippines and gross abuse
and misrepresentation of the administra-
ton. The perpetrators Of these assaults
have now discovered that the public
makes very rational discrimination be-
tween a few black sheep and whole
flock and does not insist that because
there are two black sheep the whole flock
is black The public, moreover, plainly
stands by the army while reprobating
individual soldiers who have not lived
up to the high disciplinary standard of
the patriotic American soldier. Partizan
bitterness which interrupts the discus
sion of a very important piece Of legisla-
ton, is becoming more and more Int oler-
able to the public. They prefer less
senatorial courtesy and more strict
attention to urgent business.

A QUEER SORT OF "BLOoDY SHIRT

While defending the army in his Me-
mortal Day address, President Roosevelt
made the following reference to those
fearful lynching atrocities which make
every self-respecting and country loving
American blush with shame:
From time to time there occur in our
country, to the deep and lasting shame of
our people. lynchings carried on under cir
cumstances Of inhuman cruelty and bar
barity--a cruelty infinitely worse than any
that has ever been committed by our troops
In the Philippines; worse to the victims, and
far more brutalizing to those guilty of it..
The who fail to condemn these lynchings
and yet clamor about what has been done in
the Philippines. are indeed guilty of neglect
ing the beam in their own eye, while taunt-
ing their brother about the mote in his.
This we are informed by Senator Gull
berson is waving the bloody shirt 1t is
proof of how far we really are from the
bloody shirt days that Senator Culberson
can find nothing better to call waving the
bloody shirt than this reference by the
chief executive to a national disgrace.
Doubtless there was a little sting in it
for the senator and other persons who,
il they do not sympathize with lynchings,
at least do not cry out against them as
they are protesting against the cruelties
that have been perpetrated against the
natives in the Philippines.
Senator Rawlins, Senator Carmack,
Senator Teller and others might be far
better occupied in denouncing those
awful burnings at the stake in Colorado
and Texas and elsewhere than in denoun-
cling the water cure in the Philippines.
Both are worthy Of the severest de-
nunciation, but II one kind is denounced
the other should be. too. OF the two
