Mistreatment Of veterans.

Although the colossal sum of $5,000,-
900 is being spent annually by the
government for the maintenance of
soldiers homes, the republicans are
forcing the old soldiers of the nation
to subsist on from II to IA cents
worth of food per day.
An inspector of the war department
reported that the food in the soldiers
homes was no more in quality than
that supplied the prisoners of the fed
eral penitentiaries.
An idea of the wasteful methods
employed in conducting the homes
may be had from the fact that although
the cost of maintenance more than
doubled in the 10 years between 1893
and 1908, the number of soldiers cared
for had increased but per cent.
Let your imagination spread this
outlay of Ia cents over a days food
supply" suggested Representative Cox
of Ohio, land you have an accurate
picture of how the nations heroes are
being fed. Observe the evening meal
and you will appreciate what it was
that moved Inspector Brewster TO pity
and inspired his recommendation that
there be at least a bowl of milk added

In Italy she had been responsive to
my slightest whisper. Indeed; the
slighter the whisper the better it ac-

obliged to speak TO her with the voice
of a megaphone, and she, being deaf
ened by a cold, could scarcely hear
me. Instead of leaning her head
against my arm and looking up at me
with happy smile, as she had done in
the Italian moonlight, speaking Of po-
cts and painters, she sat regarding me
with watery eyes. saying that she
wished 1t would stop raining.

Roosevelt an Insurgent.

Former President Roosevelt is in
sympathy with the insurgents. The
latter have known this for a long
time but have only recently given the
information to the public.
1t seems that on the expiring days
of his administration Mr.. Roosevelt
in the presence of a committee from
the insurgent contingent pleaded with
President Taft to support the insur-
gent movement N'or, at least, keep
your hands off,
Just previous to this he declared
to Senator Nelson and Representa-
tive Madison and Gardner, Cannon
has been the greatest obstacle in the
way of my efforts to secure good leg
islation for the people OF the coun-
try through the seven years of my ad-
ministration. For this reason he
urged change in the house rules
and when the insurgents unseated
Cannon from his position on the
rules committee, they acted in con-
sonance with Roosevelt's views.
This was the last time the for
mer president expressed himself on
political matters, but it is declared
he has frequently written to the in
surgent leaders indorsing their
course of action.
This news comes direct from Wash
ington and is surrounded by so much
detail as to bear marks of truth.
Dates are. given and even the names
Of those who heard the conversation.
If it turns out to be true that he
is with the insurgents they will win
their fight. Other things will hap
pen. Cannon will be driven into re-
tirement and every prominent stand
patter must fight for his political ex-
istence.

Nothing to Boast of.

In ante-bellum days, says Norman
e. Mack's National monthly, Colonel
Moore Of Kentucky owned a large
number of negroes. He was a kind
master and never punished his ne
groes with the whip. One day one
Of the field hands named "Jupe" was
guilty of some negligence and was
sent to the woods at once to cut
down and split up black gum tree,
practically an impossible task. Jupe
cut down the tree and labored hard
to split the tough wood, but in vain
In the meantime a thunderstorm
came up and .Jupe sought refuge un-
der a brush heap. Directly the
lightning struck large poplar tree
near by, splitting 1t into kindling
wood. After the storm had passed
Jupe crawled out from. his place Of
security and after taking careful
look at the remains of the poplar
tree. which were scattered all over
the woods, said: "Mr Lightnin',
wish you had tried yo' han on this
black gum. Any blame fool can
split a poplar!"
