wants your coin. They may beat you, Mr. Investor"
 And SO the poor monicd idiot is saved from his own ignorance by those good governmental gentlemen who come to include the people of Alaska in their examinations and condemnations.
 Undoubtedly there are men in Alas ka who need Watchng but Mir, Investor will do that without seeking the advice of men Who spend or ought to spend. more time with their eyes to the ground than they themselves.
 But there would not be much to ob- jcct to, in fact, nothing but impertn- encc, in the conduct of the members of the geological survey parties only that their advice to Mr Investor seems to suggest something uutavorablc about Alaska mines.
 of course, they may know all about it. But they must indeed be as un- selfish and honest and all that as their words would lead one to believe if they tell by d surface examination whether d mine iS good or bad and avoid taking advantage of their wondrous kuowledgo to make quick fortunes

and fair" In one sense il is true that "thc world is no longer harhar- ous" There has been since the dawn of history a great diminutiou in the horrors of war Through the invention and improvement of firearms the old time hand to hand and face to face encounter on the battlefield has been rclegatcd to the era of tradition. But 1t is, we believe. certainty of the fu- turc that far off coming generations will regard the wars of our time with the same horror that We experience in looking back to ancient wars. We find it quite in harmony with our Chris tian civilization tu employ sharp shooters who hide from observation at very long distances and pick off officers or enlisted men of the other christian nation" against whom they are waging mountains of Luzon bore down upon the volunteer artillery in our Philip pine army our officers had no option but to kill them. Necessity compelled their slaughter but advancing civli- zation did not eXult over the scene. Far more shocking even than that have been some of the more recent incidents of conflicts of our troops with harbari- ans in the Philippines. Terrible deeds have been necessitated by our duty to suppress nsurreCtion. In our short. sharp and decisive" war with Spain we literally roasted many of the Span iards in their burning ships. Barbar ous diabolism of the old time never in fiictcd more fearful torture than that. During the first months of that war of the Atlantic against the small com merCial vessels engaged in what their officers believed to be legitimate trade were not up to a high standard of civilization. Incidentally it may he said that some of our many costly and utterly ineffective bombardments more
 
 val service. The Post speaks advisedly when it says that many of the officers of the fleet were heartily ashamed of their captures and their bombardn ents. As the years roll on and civilization continues it's inevitable progress the nations will gradually arrive at such a stage of advancement that their chief concern will have ceased to be prepara- tion for and participation in killing and destroying property. And until war ends however long before that day arrives, neither our own nor any other tions will not regard it is distinctly barbarous

"lN GOD WE TRUST"

Yesterdays telegrams told us that the Christian Endeavorers are about to inaugurate a movement for the pur- pose of having the legend In God We Trust replaced on the coins of tho United States, and many will be the remarks pro and contra. as to the ad- visibility of the movement.
 Of course, at first glance, if does not sem right to remove anything pious from anything but there will be fonnd a few people in Alaska profane enough 10 suggest that the coins win look bet : ter without the words.
 Not that there is anything wrong about the words themselves. When used reverently they express much. If used hypocritically they express more ana worse. But out of the principal word of the phrase fl is too easy to make what may be called the antitb. esiS of what the word stands for II can be and. alas. very often is dome by adding the letter e." That ,act cannot be used as an argument against the use of the phrase, perhaps. but fl goes to show that the phrase is not aI- ways repeated without unChristian improvements. That is irreverence or cynicism. or something. but if is moi piety.
 certainly filthy lucre does not seem an appropriate background for piouq sentiments. A bottle of whisky wouId blush with shame were an advertise ment for water wagon stuck on if
 Besides people can live up to tbe spirit of the phrase without being con- pelled to rattle it over faro table or on bar
 The folks who desire to have the phrase replaced undoubtedly have the best reasons in the world for so wish. ing. They believe that the removal of 1t means step from the path of Faith They no doubt are more pious than those who caused the alteration. but the men who took away the words would never have done so did they be- lieve their act would result in de- crease of religious feeling.

CITY FATHERS HOLD MEETING.
Brief But Important Session Of The City
Council Last Night.

a brief but important special meet
ing OF the City Council was held last
night. The body convened at 1.SO
O'Clock and adjourned about an hour
later. The purpose of the meeting
was To consider several questions aris-
ing from the proposed Improvements.
The grades of the streets TO be inn
proved, as furnished by State Road
Engineer w. w. Crosby, were adopted
without change. The grades are con-
sidered to have been made with the
idea of causing as little change and
consequent inconvenience and expense
too abutting property owners as pos
sible, consistent with proper drain
age.
1t was decided to advertise for bids
at once for the work of laying the
tarred macadam pavements, which
constitutes the larger part of the inn
provements. Bids will be closed on
March 4, so as to allow the successful
bidder time to bring his material and
tools to Annapolis in order to begin
work promptly when weather condi-
tions permit.
The street committee was instructed
to prepare specifications for the paw
ing of Martin street with vitrified
brick; the paving of Market and Con-
duit streets, below Union and Cathe-
dral streets with hubble stone, and
the construction of bulkhead across
Charles street Cove.

A RIGID INSPECTION EXPECTED.
Unusual Significance Attached To Inspection
of The State Militia.

1t is believed that more than the
usual significance attaches TO the
coming inspection of the Natio nal
Guard of Maryland and the other
states by an officer of the regular
Army designated by the War Depart
ment, and that the amount TO be fur
nished to the different states under the
Dick bill, providing for the assistance
of the National Guard by the United
States government, will depend in n.
large measure upon the report of the
inspecting officer.
Captain William Baird, United States
Army, who has been on duty at the
Office of the Adjutant Genreal of Mary
land for some time, has been designa-
ted to make the inspection of the Mary
land military organizations.
1t is understood that the directions
of the War Department TO the officers
who will conduct the inspection are
more rigid than ever before, and that
special reports will be required as
to the number of available members
of each organization actually present
and also as to whether or not the
members come up to the physical tests
for enlistment in the regular Army.
An order was issued by the Adjutant
General a few weeks ago that all ac-
cepted applicants for enlistment in the
state guard should come up to these
tests.
1t is also stated that fifty eight
members will be considered the mini
mum for organizations of National
Guards in the future. In Maryland
the law prescribes that the minimum
shall be forty members and the maxi
mum fifty. The average company turns
out at inspection number not much
above the minimum, and the COM
mands are no larger, if as large. at
encampments and other tours of duty.
This would indicate that there should
be strenuous effort on the part of the
local organizations TO raise there in
listed strength.
Just what will happen if it is re-
ported TO the War Department that
any or most of the copmanies have
less than fifty-eight enlisted members
is not known, but il is possible that
it may result in a lessening of the
amount which is devoted to the use
of the Maryland Guard.

Do WHAT YOU CAN.
Written For The Evening Capital BY Th'
West Annapolis Bard.

I'm treading the thorn covered pathway
of life
Do what you can
Though trials may come and tempta-
lions be rife,
DO what you can.
Remember the battle is not TO the
The vict'ry does not to the mighty
belong,
Then ever let this be your watchword
and sony,
Do what you can.
What If your talents be many or few,
Do what you can.
Each to his trust in this life must be
true,
DO what you can.
IL you have but one whilst another
has five,
is that any reason why you should not
strive
With your might all the good from
this one to derive?
DO what you can.
Your talent may be the endowment Of
song,
DO what you can.
The melody lowing in ripples along,
Do what you can.
All many heart overburdened with
pain,
When touched by the music of some
sweet refrain,
Has taken fresh courage to press
on again,
DO what you can.
If talent of healing be given TO you,
Do what you can.
Remember this blessing is given to
few,
DO what you can.
The weary, the halt, the lame and
the blind,
The feeble in body the troubled i'm mind
Through your ministration some com
fort may find,
Do what you can.
Though humble your talent may seem
to your eye,
Do what you can.
The Master will reckon your count
by and by,
DO what you can.
1t may be a look, or word, or a
smile
The long weary hours of travel 10
guile,
And shorten the journey by many a
mile,
Do what you can. J. b. l..
