INCREASE IN COST OF ARMY.

in answer 20 criticisms upon the size and
expense OF maintaining the army, the Presi-
dent has said that the number OF soldiers now
Is no greater per capita than in former times
But an army then was necessary 10 protect
settlers from the Indians and to do other police
duty iu the unsettled portions Of the country
conditions which do not now exist. The army,
however. has greatly increased in cost. much
faster relatively than il has in numbers. The
Expenditures were: Under Buchanan, in 1850.
SlG5oe 600. under Hayes. in 1880. S3S, coo coo;
under Roosevelt in 1904 S115. 600, 600.
We all hail the harbinger OF the new
era in the commerce OF the world the incep-
ri0n of the great work Of building the canal
that is 10 join the two great oceans. but We
ceurecate the action OF the present admins
tration which inflicted q wound upon ma
ti0nal honor by its disregard OF the rights OF
a weaker nation in order 10 gain doubtful
credit Tor energy IN forwarding that great
enterprise. The territory OF a neighboring re-
public, with which we are at peace. was seized
by a band Of reV0lutiOnists protected by the
guns OF the United States navy. and erected
into state over night which the President
promptly recognized as an independent ma
ron-a gross offense against a friendly re-
public which il was helpless to resent.

DeS MOineS, la.
The past week was slightly cooler
than usual, the daily average tempera-
ture being to 2 degrees below normal.
The state was copiously watered In
all parts, which will insure ample fall
pasturage and put the soil in good
condition for plowing. Some local
damage resulted from severe wind
but the aggregate OF loss will
not be heavy. The bulk of the corn
which was Frustrated came up quickly,
with favorable conditions following
the storms. AS a whole the corn crop
has done fairly we'll during the week.
The progress of the crop toward
maturity has been more uneven than
usual in the same localities and in
the same fields. Reports from all
sources confirm the previous state
ment that two-t thirds or more Of the
corn crop will need normally warm
weather till the close of September to
be safe from damage by killing frost.
The more advanced fields show signs
of earlier maturity.
Fall plowing is being pushed. Cut
ting wild grass and second crop OF
tame hay in progress. Apples and po.
tatoeS yield abundantly.

The revenues, especially from Gus

tary Shaw's estimate of a deficit for
this fiscal year Of some twenty mil
lions. July started of with a short
age Of some s17,ooO,O0o and August
follows with one of s6,343,212. At this
rate Shaw's apprehension that the
