CAMPAIGN ON TO RAISE
PAY OF OUR SOLDIERS

VIZ ASHINGTON-Apply at the re-
w cruiting Office early and avoid the
rusu.
A move is on foot to increase the
pay OF United States soldiers and sail
ors. which was fixed more than %
years ago, and it was expected that
when the increase is granted there
viii be a rush of recruits.
1t has been generally assumed that
Uncle Sans soldiers were by far the
best paid in the world, and that belief
has in large part been the cause OF
the failure of attempts made in the
past to secure increases in pay.
But now, in connection with the sys-
telnatic preparations that are being
made to lay the subject of something
wrong in the army" before congress at
the next session ii has been discover
ed that this belief is founded in error
and that several nations are much
more liberal in the treatment of their
soldiers than is the United States.
The fact will be brought to the at
tention of congress in connection
with the subject of general in
crease in the salaries of both army
and navy

Other countries than these two ex-
coed America in the pay allowed their
soldiers. and data is being gotten to-
gether to make up a strong case to
demonstrate to congress that the real
reason for the numerous assertions
from the American army is not dissat-

like for some particular officer, nor
even the lack of a simple and well reg
ulated canteen, but the small wage
paid to the soldier compared with the
compensation in civil life.

DID NOT TEAR
HAIR OR WEEP.
GREAT LAWYER sUsTAINs HIS
REPUTATION AS AN AD-
NOCATE.

New York, April l0.--As an or
ator Mr. Delmas. according to those
who heard him. well earned the
reputation which had preceded
him from the Pacific coast; as an
advocate. he showed that he well
understood all his facts, to the
most minute detail As n pleader,
he appeared to be successful, for
the jury seemed TO endorse many
of the points he made. He well
knew how to make the most OF
every fact which may prove to be
important when tho jurors begin
TO consider the verdict.
Mr.. Delmhs did not tear his hair,
nor did he weep I'm front OF the
jury box. although II had been re-
ported that these are among his
specialties when he is seeking ora
torical effect.
He gave to the jurors the Inn
preston that he was sincere I'm
everything he said. He sought TO
make them believe that he is not
seeking to convince them through
any of his arts OF speech. but relies
upon their sense of honor and
their sound Judgment to come to
the Same conclusion as he. Mr..
Delmas has powerful voice which
reaches every corner OF the court
room. His voice did not seem TO
lose any of Its strength as he con
tinued in his address. IL is clear
and he understands how to use II
TO the best advantage.

STEALING OF
FAMOUS LETTERS

Letters, stolen or forged, have
played a discredltably large part in
recent American political history.
Through the theft and publication OF
the "Mulligan letters the enemies
of Blaine succeeded in defeating him
for nomination in 1876 and for cleo
tion i'm 1884. Through the forgery
of the "Morey letter" in 1880: I'm
which Gen. Garfield was made to op-
pose Chinese exclusion, the demo
Gratis sought TO promote the election
of Hancock.
Through the faxed "Murchison let
ter" in 1883, in which the British
minister, Sackyille-West, was decov-
ed into saying that the reelection of
Cleveland would be favorable 10
British interests, the republications
materially assisted the election OF
Harrison. Through the theft from
the mails by n Cuban sympathizer
of the letter addressed by the Span
ish minister at Washington. Dupuy
de LONE, to "A Spanish editor at Ha-
vana, his ill-timed reference to Nc
kinley as "a cheap politician" was
given TO the country in 1898 and ag-

macy go a black eye abroad. Now
comes the Hartman Webster letter,
with its painful implications, stolen
as is charged by an employe and
purchased and published by a news

Toward each of these illustrations
of treachery and chicanery the atti-
tude OF the people has been too com
plaisant. Lump them together. how
