A ROW IN TILE ARMY.

hIilttIy lIeli NIlOSt itiS III VI SEW =
ice is measured by the gross weight OF
the gold braid on their uniforms, are
I'D in arms in Washington. The young
sters who think the sun rises on the
across the Hudson are rallying to
their superiors and are blackguarding
the War Department with the zeal of
major generals retired. In every mess
from the Portland barracks to the
Arizona frontiers. West Pointers are
indignant.
The cause of all this rumpus is the
announcement that Leonard Wood will
become Chief Of staff on Friday and
that +. C. Ainsworth will then be
ranking Major General on the army
roster. Neither Ainsworth nor Wood
are West Point men, and therein is
their great failing in the eyes of the
regular" army officers. Both of the
Generals are, as matter of fact, med
ical men, and both came into the army
after having served with more or less
distinction in private life. Mckinley
started Wood on the road to fame at
the time of the Spanish War, and
Roosevelt, who was Woods second in
command, remembered his chief when
he came into his own as President.
Wood was advanced by leaps and
bounds, over the heads Of officers who
had seen twenty years OF harrack
service and could give every COM
mand. without mistake, in their sleep.
Ainsworth who had no particular
friend at court, won his stars by
bringing order out of chaos in the
archives of the War Department.
Both these men may be fine soldiers
and might prove themselves as able,
battle or to outline a campaign as they
have been successful in fling cards
and getting rapid promotion; but they
have not proved their especial worth
above their peers
OF course, there IS a good deal of
Jealousy in the opposition of the West
Point men to the promotion OF AIMS
worth and Wood because the true
dyed-i in the-wool West Pointer never
thinks that anybody knows anything
about military science unless he is
taught on the Hudson; but there is a
fair basis for their objection after all.
If West Point is not intended to turn
out soldiers. what is it for. and If It's
men are not to be given the. high
places in the army, why should we
have any West Point at all? II AIMS
worth and Wood are the equals of any
men now in the service. 1t Is hardly a
credit to the country that they should
achieve this position over the heads of
men on whose military education the
Government has spent thousands of
dollars but who are kept down on
the roster.
Still, there is no Legitimate ground
for complaint on the part of the Faith
full. Roosevelt started both balls roll
ing. He advanced Ainsworth and he
boosted Wood. If he did it, who has
any right to kick? 1t must be right.

THE REAL IMMIGRATION QUESTION

IhNiii W SSSdpe DuTuSIS.
THE REAL IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
These are hustling times around
Ellis Island, New York. During the
week which closed last saturday the
immigration officers received 29OoD
aliens. All of these newcomers mad to
be subjected to physical examination,
had to show that they were desirable
citizens, had to produce the necessary
cash with which to begin their career
in this country. and had to be trans
shipped to their respective destinations.
AS the vessels which sailed from Euro
pean ports during the early days of
this week report that their steerag es
are full, it'-is probable that the immi-
grafton to this country during the
present month will reach total of not
less than 100000.
Sociologists Will raise the cry OF
allen invasion at this announcement
from New York, and will be prepared
with their usual line of statistics to
show that "ths incoming mougrel
horde is a national menace" and a
"black cloud upon the horizon of our
national life" These delivers in figures
will doubtless declare that 1,2S5,34s
immigrants to America in 1907, 1880
in 1908. and 751,7s6 in 1902 are far too
many strangers to come to our shores.
There is a good deal of hysteria about
this and similar anti-immigratlon telk
Some Of the immigrants are undeslr-
ables. They recruit tho Black Hand
gangs and they crowd the darkest al
leys of the hlthicst slums. They
throng the cities and add their mass
TO tho total of our national physical
liability account. Only a small per-
centage of the whole, however. come
within this category. Many of the
newcomers are most desirable add
lions to our citizenship. Any man who
will read the story of what the irish
or the Scotch, or the Germans, or the
Scandinavians have done in America
will hesitate to say that the coming
of these men to our shores is not an
asset to America.
Back of all the twaddle about a
foreign menace" however, there is
one great question: If the men who
come to America to seek their fortune
are, in the main, honest men, can they
be assimilated in such vast numbers
and can they be made good Americans.
This is the real point to the whole i'm.
migration controversy. America is not q
Utopia and not a Happy Land appointed
just this side of the Jordan: but 1t has
a distinct national life and is what tits
to-day because of this spirit. We want
the best that foreigners can bring, and
we are willing to take from them all
they can give us, but we as Americans
| want to give them the spirit of our
country. If we can give them this, II
does not matter how many come. II
we fail to give them this, we cannot
keep America American.

Two Paramount Issues.
(writtcn for last week is us)

Editor County Record
We notice the county chairman
las called all the Democratic clubs
to meet and re-organize; also the
county convention is called to meet
at the county seat on May 2. The
county campaign is now open, or
soon will be; there are two vital Is
sues in this campaign: the first issue
with the candidates for the House
of Representatives is, Will they use
their every effort to regulate the
law in reference to taxation and see
that a law is enacted to have every
tizen bear his equal part of taxa
ton? AS the law stands now, to
make a comparison, if Mr. B has
$40, 900 and Mr. A has $4,000, and
Mr. B invests his capital in land he
has tax to pay on his investment
from the day he makes his purchase,
while if Mr. A lends his capita! at
interest and gets from 8 to 10 per
c. he pays no taxes. Is this right?
Issue Number 2..Here comes the
timber, speculator. Mr. Farmer has a
tract of timber land, the timber
worth So to S. an acre, the land
with timber cut off worth 81 an
acre. Mr. Farmer sells this timber to
the buyer for So an acre and gives
the timber-buyer 10 to 20 years to
remove the said timber. AS the law
now stands, the farmer has to pay
the taxes on this land for 20 years,
while the purchase price will not pay
the taxes for 20 years. Is this right!
No, but it is one of our existing
laws.
Also the writer would advocate the
enactment of a law creating COM
mission of men in each township to
take the tax returns therein ano
equalize the property as returns are
made between those three commis
sioners and the taxpayer. Lei
those three commissioners canvass
