ARMY VISIT DOOMED AT FIT.
HARRISON.
Congress Refuses to Give Money anu
War Department May Abandon
Maneuvers.

There will be no joint army and
militian maneuvers at Fl. BENJAMIN
Harrison this year. While Represen
~tative Overstreet has done all that
was possible to promote the plan for
these maneuvers, he is forced to sub
nit to the conclusion of the leaders
of Congress that no money shall be
appropriated this year for maneuvers
Recognizing the temper of Congress,
the War Department has practically
abandoned the plans of the
vers.
Representative Hull, chairman of
the Military Affairs Committee, is
blocking the passage of the necessary
appropriation and he has the unani-
fmous support of the committee. Mr..
Hull said:
"Wc have eliminated from the
army appropriation bill the item of
81 ,00O, 900 for maneuvers. The COM
mittee, | think, without exception
feels that the maneuvers, by which
the regular force and he state militia
are brought together are Of great
benefit. There is no disposition to
decry the benefits that have come
through the closer association of the
national guard and the regular estab-
lishment, but these maneuyers have
only been Of recent years. When
started they were TO be only about
every third year. They have grown
up until they are practically now
practically every year. They only
benefit a small portion of the guard
each year.
"Only one regiment at a time from
a state can be taken into the annual
grand encampment recommended by
the department. That gives but small
advantage to the guard as a whole.
while if the regulars were brought TO
that state all the guard would have all
the benefit each year.
I'VE had 81, 10000 DOC last year and
81 ,OO0, 900 the year before for these
grand maneuvers. At this time, with
our expenses running away with us
on other lines, with a budget for the
support of the army increased by ST.
000, 900 now, and an increase certainly
of $1,000 900 more if a provision in
corporated in the bill increasing the
pay of the enlisted force shall prevail,
and an increase of 50, 200, 900 more if
another provision shall be incorpor-
ated increasing the pay of the Off
GERS, | insist that this years maneu-
vers may we'll be dropped out. In
my judgment the elimination of this
81. O0O, 900, with the decrease of some
$500, 900 in appropriations for the
regular establishment as a result of
not providing for maneuvers, is not
doing any injury TO the service and
is in the line of good legislation, un-
der present conditions.

Business Interests Working For Re-
publican Success.
The president Of the Claflin company
in an annual statement Of that com
pany to stockholders sums up the bust
ness situation with much accuracy and
fairness. He said that after six
months Of severe depression in the dry
goods industry a recovery occurred in
June and since then has been well
maintained. but no great improvement
can be expo tied until the presidential
election is over.
Expressed or implied, a marked re-

is predicted by the most cautious
business men in the country because
Of the inferential belief that Judge
Taft will be elected on Nov. 3. Recent
accounts Of the iron trade show that

earnings tell a similar story. To every
one the evidence is unmistakable that
If the election of Judge Taft was now
placed beyond peradventure business

Look at Her Teeth.

Young man, before you marry, take
particular notice of the teeth Of your
intended wife. Aunt Peggy tells me
that the organs of mastication are GER
tain indicators of a wife's inclination
to roam or not to roam.
IF you want home body" says the
aged high priestess, marry a girl
whose teeth grow close together. If
the teeth are distinctly separated, your
wife will go gadding about all the time.
She may love her home, but she won't
stay there. She will want to be travel
ing. The greater the distance between
the teeth the greater her inclination to
wander abroad"
