Comparisons are odious, but the re-
semblance OF Secretary Williams to
the great Dante of Inferno fame, is
marked enough to cause comment.
Perhaps the genial secretary Of civil
and military affairs will not regard
this as compliment, but he surely
need not feel ashamed of resembling,
specially in chronological development
the great Alighiere whose fame has
trandescended the ages.of song.

The Why of Socialism.

Socialism is. a doctrine born OF
the intense longing of philanthropy
lists to liberate the people from intol-
cradle conditions in the cities,'' says
Tom Watson, in MS Magazine.
THE doctrine has no considerable
foothold anywhere outside Of the
cities. It's arguments are based upon
city conditions. In our rural com
munities it makes no Roadway, sim
ply because conditions which en-
courage it in the cities do not exist
in the country.
IF the overcrowding in the cities
could be counteracted, ifithe surplus
population could be induced to
scatter out and go to work, building
up the waste places in rural COM
munities, responding to the earliest
demand for laborers in the less po-
pulous portions Of the Union, Great
ing homes and farms upon the mil
lions Of square miles of unappropri-
ated or easily accessible land which
lmpatiently awaits the benefcent
touch OF human industry Socialism
would at once cease to be a factor in
politics, and would once more be-
come, what it has SO long been, a cult
OF the studio,'

j. j. Hill's Canal Idea.

Winnipeg, Man., August 9.-For
several weeks past surveyors sent
out by James J. Hill have been run
ing lines to the north of this city
for the proposed canal system to be
built by Mr.. Hill, which will connect
the great lakes and the Hudson
bay. ~ 49, ~,
The project sounds stupendous but
in reality there is but little actual
canal work to be done, the work
consisting in deepening and making
navigable natural waterways which
follow the proposed route for practic-
ally the whole distance In places
where waterways or lakes are not
convenient the land is such that
canals can be n AIDE with but little
trouble. Mr.. Hill stated few days
ago that grain vessels would be 60
ing through this canal to Europe
before water is turned into the Pa
mama canal. With this system Of
canals in operation, with his many
branch railways now being built in
Canada. Mr.. Hill will have complete
control of the transportation of the
middle states and the Canadian
northwest. <.-v> =.

ARMY MARKSMEN GAIN.
President Expresses His Qualification
- Over the Remarkable Progress
Among Enlisted Men.

Washington.-In letter to Acting
Secretary Oliver, President Roosevelt
has expressed his qualification over the
remarkable progress in marksman-
ship by the enlisted men Of the army.
Before the Spanish war the American
private soldier was admittedly the best
shot in the world. The addition Of a
large, number of volunteers had the eff
feet of greatly reducing the average,
but since the reorganization following
the war every effort has been made to
stimulate interest in craftsmanship,
and the result is that to-day the aver
age is probably higher than it was at
the beginning Of the war M. =,"a
The figures laid before the president
which ELECTED his III approval showed
that in 1903 there were in the whole
army SIS expert rifemen, $40 sharp
shooters and 500 marksmen, as the va
rious grades are known technically
In the following year these had in
creased to 264 expert riflemen, 1, 439
sharpshooters and 2,,484 marksmen
Last year the record stood 500 expert
rifemen, 9ss371 sharpshooters and
3,436 marksmen. ss
