WASHINGTON C THURSDAY


the close of the campaign. but as rule
stuck close to base, iand made public
his views in one form Ior other, either
from Esopus or from Anew York City.
The Republican candidates in recent
times have done very little stumping
since the days of 1SS4.when Blaine was
the Republican nominee Mckinley did
practically all his speaking from the
front porch of his residence at Canton.
There are very divergent views about
the propriety of Presidential candi-
date going on the stump. ah
On the whole there, is an,putlook for
very lively political Summer and Au-
tumn, even if the Presidential campaign
should prove to be more or less one
sided. The letters Of acceptance of the
nominees will hardly be Outsbefore late
in August or early in September, at
which time the issues will be fairly
joined and 1t will begin to appear
whether the people are going to take
much interest in politics. The National
Committees will-get down to hard work
by early August. The, Chairmen re-
quire several weeks in which to make
preparations and perfect their organiza-

Rica is also completing the construc-
ton of its transoceanic line from Port
Limon to Tiyives. Nicaragua Is carry
ing out plans for prolonging its lines
from the Pacific to the Atlantic. 1t is
certain that within a short time there
will be three transoceanic lines in Cen
trail America, and the prious countries
will then have every inducement to
join in building the Pan-American
backbone.
Summing up. Mr.. Pepper says that
the Pan-American route from New York
to Buenos Ayres is 10000. From New
York to the southern border of Mexico
is 3.770 miles, and these points are now
connected by rail. From the southern
border of Mexico to Buenos Ayres Is
$3.50 miles, and of this distance 2.50Q
miles is of railways over which trains
are running, while there is an addi-
tional 400 miles under actual contract
construction. This leaves little more
than $500 miles for the future.

Mrs. Frances Palmar writes from
Cameron, o.: II am the wife of Michael
Palniar He is &c years old; / am So.
We married in 1903. He served his
country, and the results to his health
are severe. He was taken down in
January, 1904. and from that day he
has been unable to wait on himself, nor
have j had one night of unbroken rest.
/ have to care for him, but do not
tire of that. He says / am the only one
who has his troubles to bear or whom
he troubles Nevertheless, Mr. Sullo-|
wayss voice is against me. He declares
me mercenary, and therefore unworthy
of pension, and overrides even the Sen
ate to prevent me and the thousands
like me from getting pension if my
husband leaves me aione-impoyerish
ed, broken down in health, without
hope that any would hire me to work"
Drill the School Boys.
sComrade A. ]. Hill, Co. H, 37th Mass.
writes from S. and S. Home, Bath, n.
Y: The schools are the places to
teach boys 10 become effective soldiers.
Every boy of 10 and upward should be
drilled to efficiency in military manu-
yer; should be able to go thru COM
pany and regimental cyolutions; to
handle a military rife with precision
of movement and discharge it with ae-

hands off nor shooting at the sun.
Then, when war comes there should be
personal service; no service by substi-
tute if the citizen is not physically in
capacitated. None should be permitted
TO evade his duty to defend his country.
Then we could dispense with ornamen-
tai and useless standing armies and
Dreadnought navies. and save the vast
expenses of these establishments" The
comrade thinks the Government would
save money and afford veterans more
comforts if it paid the maintenance
cost of the Soldiers Homes to the vet
Grams individually.
