CONSULT THE OLD SOLDIERS.

The New York Times, in commenting
on the bill introduced into the House
| by Representative Rixey of Virginia to
admit Confederate veterans into the SOL
diers' homes established by the United
States on the same terms as Union
veterans, and also to extend to the
states maintaining Confederate SOL
diers' homes the same aid that is ex-
tended TO those maintaining homes for
Union veterans, says.
at Is hardly to be doubted that the
opposition to the plan in the South will
be fatal to il. Were the South united
i'm asking for it at this time it is prob
able that it would be adopted We
confess that we should favor its adop-
ton"
THE South, with all its great
progress, is not so rich as the North
and West. 1t has worked its way up
against tremendous odds, against
a good deal of oppression and
robbery committed by Northern men,
and 1t has done so through the exercise
of the same heroic qualities that 1t
showed during the war-fortitude, en-
ergy, courage. We think that it would
be fair and friendly thing for the
party in power to extend to the South
the small aid that would be required
for the support of the totally disabled
veterans of the Confederate service.
But if the South will not have it we
must respect their feeling"
1t seems to us that this is a matter
about which the Confederate veterans
themselves should be consulted. In
this state a good deal is being done for
Confederate veterans who are not able
to provide for themselves, but what is
being done is not sufficient to make
them entirely comfortable. 1t is not
probable, however, that any additional
provision will be made for them. In
other Southern States the provision for
them is not as liberal as it is in this
at least, it is our understanding that it
isn't. We have already called atten-
ton to the recent message of the Gov
ernor of South Carolina to the Legis-
lature of that state, in which he said
that If the state intended to build a
home for Confederate veterans it
should lose no time in doing it, since
they were rapidly passing away 1t is
safe statement that in no
one of the Southern states is there as
ample provision made for Confederate
veterans as there should be, but 1t is
as ample as the people feel they can
make 1t. That being the case, why not
permit rich government to lend as
sistance, if It is willing to do so?
The thing to do, it seems to u.s. is
to consult the wishes of the Confeder-
ate veterans themselves. They are the
ones who are directly interested. If
they are against Mr.. Rixey's bill then
let the matter drop, but If they favor
1t the fact should be made known. It
is not fair TO them to have it decided
by those who were too young to take
part in the Civil War or by those who
did take part in 1t, but are so well pro-
yided with this worlds goods that they
can afford to regard with indifference
offers of government help. 1t is a fact
worth noticing that sons of veterans
are benefleiaries of the government at
West Point and Annapolis, and the
Confederate veterans themselves should
have a chance to say whether they
would regard an offer of government
help with favor.

A Merging OF FormuIae.

A commercial traveller we'll known in
the cycle trade on both sides of the At
lantic, says the Denver News, adds this
to the collection of jokes on newly
made happy fathers:
The hero is the manufacturer of the
wheel which the narrator sells. Being
compelled to go away on business trip
about the time an interesting domestic
event was expected, he left orders for
the nurse to wire him results accord
ing to the following formula:
If a boy, "Gentleman's safety ar
rived
If a girl "Ladys safety arrived"
The fathers state of mind may be
imagined when, a few days late-. he
received a telegram containing the one
word:

The Senate is still creating new Of
nces for its own convenience. A day
or two ago it passed a resolution Gre
aring a new clerkship paying a salary
of s1,440 per year. Five or six similar
resolutions have been introduced at
this session. Senator Plat OF Connecti-
cut called attention to the fact that
the "help" OF the Senate was already
costing more than the Senate itself:
nevertheless the resolution went
through as II IL were creased. sena-
tor Plat said the disposition was not
to inquire whether all OF this army Of
employees was needed In the public
service, but merely whether there was
money enough with which 70 pay

The desire Of the government of Hol-
land TO interfere in behalf of the Beers
loses much of its force when that gov
eminent is confronted with the ques-
ton, How about Achin?" Achn is
situated in the northern part Of the
Dutch possession Of Sumatra. Twenty
nine years ago the Achinese rebelled
against Dutch rule and broke into open
revolt. From that day to this there
has been war in the country; in a small
way, TO be sure, but war, nevertheless.
For the past twenty years It has been
guerrilla fighting. The Dutch have an
nounced It TO be their purpose to win
at whatever cost in lives. And that is
what the British have determined.

And the troubles that we share
Seem the easier to bear,
Smile upon your neighbor's care,
As you greet.

Make them sweet.

The Philadelphia Times announces
that Charles A. Towne of Minnesota
has purchased a seat on the New York
Stock Exchange and opened a brokers'
office in Wall street. No doubt Mr.
Towne desires TO fight the trust and
money devils at close range, and is
willing to pay a good price for the priv
ilege. Stock Exchange seats are now
worth about $4,000. 1t has not been
long since Mr.. Towne was such an elo-
quent and uncompromising enemy to
the trust and money devils that he
won fractional nomination to the vice
presidency of the United States.

A royal higb-roller who has recently
been giving New York and Washington
gossips something to talk about is
Prince Euiwha, the second and favo-
rite son of the King of Korea. The
young man was sent over here to get
an education at an American college
and to study the ways of the people.
During 1.-THE past few months he has
devoted himself more to studying the
ways of some people than to studying
his books, with the result that he con-
tracted some $4,000 of debts which he
cannot pay. A good part of the
money, it is said. was expended in
studying finance from the point of
view of the lamb in Wall street, and
art from behind the scenes of New
York theaters- For a newcomer from
the Hermit Kingdom" the young fell
low has learned rapidly.

he has discovered a new parasite that

parasite resembles the one that causes
the fly disease among horses in South
Africa. 1t operates, says the Doctor,
much in the same way as the disease

A few days ago there appeared in
several newspapers certain Washing
ton dispatches to the effect that the
President was planning to have the
government purchase the telegraph
lines of the country at a cost of~S2o0,-
600, 900, so as to be assured of a gil
gantic patronage" for use in the next
presidential campaign. The story went
on to say that Henry G. Payne was
made Postmaster General with the pur-
pose in view of carrying out this plan.
1t is stated in former Postmaster Gen
eral Smiths paper. the Philadelphia
Press. that there is no foundation in
fact for the story. and Senator Mason.

bad ADVICE.

Some of the newspapers are advising
Congress to pass an isthmian canal
bill, appropriate a sufficient amount of
money for beginning the work, and
leave the choice of route to the Pres
ident. That is bad advice. No doubt
the President would do the very best
he could. but that would not satisfy
the people. There is the utmost con-
fidence in his integrity, but there may
be doubt as to the soundness Of his
judgment.
Besides, it would not be right for
Congress to put such a burden upon
the President. He would not be per-
mitted to decide the question of a
route upon the facts which are now
available. Delegations on each side
of the question would insist upon see
ing him and arguing the matter with
him. He might say that he would not
hear argument, but he would not be
permitted to have his way in the mat
ter. Means would be found to get ac-
whelmed with facts, figures and ar
guments in favor of the different
routes.
The question of route must be de-
cided by Congress. The building of
canal will not be begun until that
body decides. A week ago everything
seemed to favor the Nicaragua. Now
there is a fair chance for the Panama.
Let the President designate his choice
If he wants to, but don't put the bur-
den of choosing the route upon him.

And now it is stated, upon high
medical authority in New York, that
not only does "Pasteurization" fail to
render milk harmless and wholesome,
but actually adds new danger for
child life to it. when the milk is
sterilized," said a well known practi-
toner, "the mineral constituents are
separated from the proteids or nitro
genous constituents, and as a result
there is a complete destruction of the
vitality The effect of this has been
to greatly increase the number of
cases Of scurvey among children, es-
pecially among those of we'll to-do par
ents. If the children of the tenement
house districts were fed on sterilized
or Pasteurized milk, the result would
be disastrous" This statement was
conceded in by several other doctors
Of prominence. What is wanted, they
declared, is milk in it's natural state;
but it must be made pure. How to
accomplish this is the great problem.
