A Study IN IARlEE CHANGES.

There is no doubt that the entire
sustain congress in removing the duty
on anthracite coal, tho it is probable
that not pound Of it is kept out by
the tariff, for under present circum-
stances nearly any price demanded is
quickly paid by the consumer and so
small a tariff as 81 cents per ton would
not count in such reckoning. However,
there is ample justification for the re-
moval of the duty and therefore when
congress assembled steps were taken
by both republicans and democrats
looking to this end. In the senate
a bill submitted by Senator Lodge, of
Massachusetts,, proposed the suspension
of the duty for ninety days, while ali.
other submitted by Senator Culberson,
of Texas, provided for the complete
removal of the duty.
Possibly these two measures may
represent party positions, and study
of the treatment given them may in
dictate what possibilities exist for any
sort of tariff revision by the present
congress. When Senator Vest pressed
the question of the entire removal of
the duty Senator Aldrich moved that
the subject be referred to the finance
committee. Vest objected to this as
an unnecessary delay and in the
course of his remarks declared there
was no more chance today to reduce
a single duty in the Dingley act than
for him to carry off the capitol build
ing on his shoulders"
The senate never does anything IN
a hurry, but it would be amply sus-
tanned in removing temporarily or per-
manently, without much debate, any
duty whose adjustment is called for
by the entire nation This subject Of
removal went over IN the senate be-
cause other matters stood in the way.
but it will come up again soon, and a
study in tariff changes will be further
developed.

GENERAL sIAEE FOR ARMY.

| The passage of the bill by the ma.
! tional house providing for the estab-
lishment Of general staff corps for the
army, calls attention anew to a meas
ure which Secretary of War Root has
been urging earnestly. BY the terms OF
the bill it becomes the duty of the gen
eral staff to prepare plans for the ma
| tional defense and for the mobilization
OF the army in time of war. to investi-
| gate and report on all questions affect
| ing the efficiency of the service, and to
the secretary of war and to general Of
| ficers and other leading commanders
In other words, 1t is proposed to sup
plant the mere figureheads of the army
with an active and useful body of men
who can meet any emergency that
arises.
This general staff corps is to consist
of one chief of staff and two general Of
ficers. all to be detailed by the president
from officers of the army at large not
below the grade of brigadier general;
four colonels, six lieutenant colonies,
and twelve majors, twenty captains to
be detailed from officers of the grade of
captain or first lieutenant, who while
so serving, shall have the rank. pay and
allowances of captains mounted. All
officers in the general staff shall be de-
tailed therein for periods of four years.
While serving in the general staff corps
officers may be assigned temporarily to
duty with any branch of the army.
Secretary Root, in his recent annual
report, devoted seven pages of it to this
subject, declaring that the most impor-
tant thing to be done now for the army
is the creation of general staff. He
was impressed with the belief that our
military system is Exceedingly defective
at the top" We have everything else
needed for the efficient working of the
army, he says, but when we come to
the coordination and direction Of all
these means and agencies of warfare
so that all parts of the machine shall
| work true together, we are weak. Our
! system makes no adequate provision for
| the directing brain which every army
must have, to work successfully. Com
mon experience has shown that this can
not be furnished by any single man
| without assistants, and that it requires
a body of officers working together I'M
| der the direction of chief and entirely
separate from and independent of the
administrative staff of an army (such
as the adjutants. quartermasters, COM
missaries, ETC., each of whom is en-
crossed in the duties of his own special
departmenD."
In general way the new measure
meets the needs pointed out by the
secretary, and if it shall become law
by approval of the senate and presi-
dent, it will create a useful body that
will enable the commander of the army
to put force in the field. when needed

IOWA NEWSPAPERS.
BOYS LEARN1NG TRADES.
dubuque Times.l

dubuque TimeS.1
An observer recently remarked that
the persons Tearing trades We're found
chiefly in the penitentiaries and that
the fault with the rising young man
was his disposition to shirk mechanical
pursuits and hunt for white shirt job.
The DEBORAH Republican believes the
indictment is not based on fact and that
the restrictions the labor unions throw
about apprentices is the sole reason
why the number Of young men entering
the trades is not larger. Says the Re-
publican:
"Our observation is that there are
hundreds in every community who
would learn trades If they could One
offensesof unionism is systematic linn
itation placed on the opportunities that
shall be permitted to boys who want to
learn a trade. The astonishing thing is
that fathers who make the rules gov
erning the union deliberately shut their
boys out OF the chance to earn their
daily bread when they get to manhood.
unless it can be had in some profession
already overcrowded. Worse still, the
great combinations of labor make it all
most impossible for q young man to
learn an entire trade. He is fortunate If
he secures an opportunity to tend a
machine that is only a little piece Of a
! branch in some trade. In this respect
the world is in a period OF readjust-
ment. The girls are having large open
ings made for them as clerks, type
writer's, stenographers and bookkeep-
ers. AS for the boys, it will be their
privilege to both rustic and hustle"
Where there's will there's a way.
The labor union can not defeat the
young man who has fully made up his
mind that he wishes to learn trade.
The manual training school is open to
him; also the shop in the small town,
the factory in the large town and the
technical school. His employer will en-
courage his ambition to make himself
thorough in every department OF his
trade. Therefore there must be con-
siderable truth in the claim that many
young men shirk the trades from con-
siderations similar to those which
constrain young women to decline serv-
ice as domestics and to enter occupa-
tons which are less remuneratNe but
supposed to be more genteel.

canada's Manifest Destiny.

"a great many people know nothing
about our constitution. Under it we
are free country. The British empire
is made up, not of collection of colo
MES or dependencies but of nations.
We did not have to send troops to
South Africa, nor did we contribute
one cent of the cost other than volun-
tarily."-Sir Frederick Borden at the
recent Canadian dinner in New York
city.
So, should Canada make up her mind
to accept her manifest destiny, she will
only have to say the word, and the
boundary line between her and US will
disappear as If by magic.

REDUCING ARMY LIQUOR HABIT.

Recently there was published in
these columns, thru the efforts of a
professional prohibitionist. the state
ment of soldier who claimed that the
canteen was a bad thing for the army.
Because the Times Republican has
from time to time printed statements
tending to prove the reverse, and that
the abolition of the canteen had in
creased drunkenness and crime, this pa
per has been accused of favoring a
wrongful measure; accused of favoring
the liquor habit in showing why, in the
opinion of those best qualified to know,
the canteen should be restored; but we
have only the we'll being of the army in
view. We can only present statements
pro and con and allow the reader to
Judge 1t may be that the canteen is
not an ideal institution which teetotal-
ers would urge: but Ma. l.. l.. Seaman,
who claims to be almost a teetotaler,
contributes an article to the January
number of the North American Review,
in which he advances, with impressive
force, a number of reasons why the
Army Canteen Should be Restored" To
begin with, he says it was q misfortune
that the institution in question was
ever called a canteen, since in point of
fact 1t was a soldiers club or a post
;,,fa To
es of reading room, a recreation room,
a cooperative store and a restaurant.
No intoxicating liquor but beer was
ever served in it, and that only in a
special room conducted under strict
regulations. The canteen originated in
the desire of the officers to provide such
attractions for their men in the bar
racks itself as would save them from
the temptations offered by the low
groggeries and brotheis that are apt to
spring up In the vicinity of post. 1t
proved most efficient and beneficent
among the soldiers and, crime arising
therefronl. On that point he declares
| the testimony of commanding officers,
as confirmed by official statistics, is alb
solutely conclusive. Since the abolition
of the canteen by act of congress- at the
| instance of temperance advocates who,
however good their intentions may
have been, were ignorant of the facts re-
Ilating to its history and influence, the
old conditions have been increasingly
| in evidence. Drunkenness, misconduct,
crime and disease are increasing
alarmingly in the ranks of the United
States army, and the officers of the
army are unit In demanding the res
| toration of an institution which, while
1 it lasted, did nothing but good. Says
Major Seaman:
To-day the liquor sellers and the
/ Women's Christian Temperance Union
as 1t now stands. Truly indeed, poll
| tics makes strange bedfellows! Since
It's abolition, the secretary of war has
| collected an enormous volume of evil
| dence from the thousand officers of the
army, all of whom, in their written re-
ports, favor Its restoration. 1t may be
added that during the decade Of 1875
! 1877, the number of admissions to the
military hospitals for alcoholism and
its results amounted to 1,640. From
1888 to 1897, when the canteens had
been instituted thruout the army, the
number was reduced to 923, or only 40
per cent. In one post, Willett's Point,
