GEN. MILES LONG RIDE.
His Object Was to Discover the Charac'
ter of the Ordinary Cavalry Horse.

Since Lieut.. Gen. Miles returned to this
city he has received many inquiries in re-
gard to the conditions of his recent ride
from Fort Sill to Fort Reno. distance OF
ninety miles which he covered in nine
hours. Speaking to party of friends on
the subject. Gen. Miles said:
Il wanted to satisfy myself as to the
character of the horses with which the
cavalry is being supplied and the effect of
different animals over different roads on
their riders. l wanted to compare the cav
airy horses of today with those of the past
and draw conclusions that might be or
benefit to the army. There have been some
complaints that not so much care Is now
taken in the selection Of cavalry horses as
formerly and that this has been cause Of
desertions in that arm OF the service. By
riding nine horses selected at random over
a ninety mile stretch / believed l could
best secure all of the Information l want
ed, and did.
The ride was made without special prep
aration of any kind. Though l have been
in the saddle more or less since l was six
years old. l have ridden very little during
the past year and rode only four or five
miles the day before. The heat in the mid
die of the day was 1O4 in the shade but
experienced no Inconvenience.
KNOWING that l weigh 2O7 pounds. two
of the officers who selected the horses pick
ed out the draft horses for me. and the
first clumsy when he put
to RallOp that he fell down and rolled
partly me. On a cold day and good
roads l would have ridden much further
in the same time. l used neither whip nor
spur. The ride did not tire me at all
The Fort Sill-Fort Reno dash was the
longest ride Gen. Miles has ever made. but
not the fastest. Four years ago he rode
fifty miles in four hours and twentyseven
minutes using two horses. During the
civil war. 1865, he rode eighty miles on one
horse between sunrise and sunset.
All army officers agree that although
Gen. Miles is within five days of the re-
firing age, he is one of the best riders in
the army.

Passports for Chinese.

Passports vised by American consuls will
be all that will be necessary for Chinese
exhibitors at and visitors to the louisiana
purchase exposition next year to enter the
United States. An obnoxious rule was in
force under the bureau OF immigration. by
which all Chinese were to be compelled
to deposit bond Of $500 with the federal
authorities to insure their return to China
at the close of their visit to the exposition.
This was very distastefui and annoying to
Chinese exhibitors. and has resulted in the
issuance Of an order by the President that
during the exposition Chinese merchants
and others who wished to- attend should
be admitted upon passports.

THE CuMMINs IDEA.

hhOih oiouA Nity Souihai.
The world has right to know that
there are in this commonwealth 100, 600
more men who believe in protection
than in free trade.
This is most unique campaign.
II will not be five years until Eng
land shall abandon free trade.
Free trade means system of duties
imposed upon the things that we do
not produce.
Protection is an arrangement of the
tariff schedules so that duties are
levied on competitive things.
III Andrew Jackson had been as
Weakened and limber-backed as Jas.
Buchanan the war OF the rebellion
would have started in 1881.
j don't believe there are many free
traders in this country.
The foundation stone of the mighty
economical structure of this country
is protection.
The most facinating book OF the
age is the census of 1900.
Some of the duties OF the law of
1897 are too high and should be re-
duced.
Every man who votes the democratic
ticket this year votes to strike down
protection.
The United States is the most COM
handing figure in the community OF
nations.
Remember that Theodore Roosevelt
is a republican.
