THE RUSSIAN ARMY.

that the Russian army Is not one
of the most powerful war engines
the world has ever seen. Russia
has the greatest army on earth
IL consists Of over 100000 men
IN time Of peace which may easily
be increased to 100000 in the
event of war. The magnitude OF
the cars military establishment
may be realized if one considers
the fact that the Russian army
even on peace footing contains
more officers alone than the
American army has of botu Off
GERS and men.
On peace footing, as at pres
ent constituted, the armies Ol the
car are made up of about 81 per
cent infantry, ~ per cent cavalry
IL per cent artillery, 3 per cent
engineers, 3 per cent cOmmissar.
lat and departmental troops and
8 per cent CossacliS. While by
40 means the largest numerically
the most conspicuous and effec-
tive portion of the army is the
cavalry, together with the kin.

troops known as the Cossacks.
In fact, Russia places chief re.

The decision OF the supreme court
that it could not decide the cause gives
LaFollette a technical advantage with
the merits Of the case untouched. 1t
may be true, as charged, that great
wrong has been done, but if so there is
no redress. If the courts can find no
way 10 prevent the stealing of con-
vention or otherwise thwarting the eX-
pressed will of the people, the people
themselves should find one speedily
The laws which make such conditions
possible should be promptly repealed.
Under pretence of safeguarding cleo
tons the political bosses have bound
the electors hand and foot and hold
them subservient to their will. Addi-
tional chains are forged for them in the
primary election bin which they are
asked voluntarily to put on. If the
voters are wise they will reject this law
and insist upon a speedy and thorough
overhauing of the laws relating to cleo
tons The people should not be held
in leading strings by the bosses. Free
dom of political action should be the
rule and legal constraint the exception.
Let the law prescribe the method of
conducting the elections but leave the
people free to select their candidates
and formulate their platforms.
The action of the stalwarts in decid
ing to keep their ticket in the field and
fight to the end is what was to be ex-
peeted of honest men. There was no
other honorable course for them to pur-
sue. If they have been telling the truth
about the present administration it is
their duty to keep telling it until cleo
ton dav. They have professed to speak
from the records and the administration
has not offered the records in evidence
70 refute the charges. There is much
within the knowledge of all intelligent
men To confirm the allegations. Moth
ing hut frank and complete disclosure
by the administration will satisfy the
public. If they fail to make it the sus-
picion that they dare not will be
strengthened 1t is not a sufficient
answer to say that the stalwarts are
owned by the railroads. Republicans
are as much interested in knowing the
truth as democrats, and the stalwarts
are right in continuing the fight until
the truth is known and it is found that
nothing is wrong. The nomination of
Ex-Governor Seofield greatly strength
ems the ticket

Worse Than War.

The following official statement issued
bv the United States Interstate Com
merce commission, proves what this
paper has often declared, that the rail
roads of the United States are managed
with a criminal earelessness and dIsre-
gard for human life that is appalling:
Associated Press Dispatch.
Washington, Oct An official bull
letin Of the interstate commerce COM
mission shows that during the past
year 1854 persons were killed in rail-
road wrecks and rs, 247 injured
An officer of the commission said
We have received reports from Eng
land. where the average is less than
%. 600 miles Of track to our 2O0,O00. yet
they do a greater per mile business
than we do They haul more passen-
gers, vet there was not one passenger
killed last year
Ii is high time for government owner
shin of the railroads if this state of
things Is To continue. And the fact IS
that the condition has been growing
steadily S-orse.

ic ticket from top to bottom A united
front by the democracy will save Wis
consin from further dishonor.
But democrats you cannot do it by
mixing in the broils of the other party
You cannot do it by catering to the good
fellowship of some republican candidate
for local Office You must do it by tight
ing for democracy shoulder to shoulder,
courageously and fearleSsly. You can
not do it by creating dssension within
your party by supporting any candidate
on the other ticket. Your vote must be
solid, straight.
The democratic ticket, national, state,
legislative and county, is superior to the
ticket of the republicans in every re-
spect. Hence, if democrats want party
success, if they are democrats, If they
want to do their democratic duty, they
will every last one Of them go to the
polls and assist in getting many others
to 90 there and vote the straight demo-
cratic ticket from president To coroner
without a scratch or blemish.
That is democratic duty Portage

aisy He said that that illustrated two
ways of doing things and that it is bet
ter to do them easy, a way characteriS-
tic of the man.. While he was governor
1t became necessary to send companies
of the national guard to quell threat
ened disturbances on account of strikes.
He took pains to caution the officers to
be very careful not To do or say any
thing that might provoke conflict, but
required. He also said, TELL the boys
they have our sympathy and we don't
want to hurt anybody, but the laws
must be obeyed." The result of his
prompt action, tirmness and kindliness
was that no outbreak occurred and not
a drop of blood was shed. A rash man,
by flaming proclamation and dis
play OF the mailed hand, might easily
have provoked a contest that would
have resulted in the loss of many lives
Such governor might have gotten the
reputation of man of iron and been
hailed as hero, but he would not have
served his state better or been more
worthy of praise. The strength that
gets the right thing done without diff
Guilty or injury is best for all. Ex-gOv
ernor Peek has plenty of iron in his
blood, but he has also good judgment
and a kindly spirit that generally make
"a resort To force unnecessary but he
can withstand opposition when neces-
sary or do the right agai INST odds.
