II the carper, after reading that the
war Department has abolished hard
tack in the Army, wants more evil
dence that the world IS changing, then
his is o hopeless case. He can never
be convinced
Hardtaek is the very symbol OF
things immutable. 1t is milled of the
granite lodges. 1t is baked to the
toughness OF lava. 1t has the sane
ton aud the stamp of the bureaus
wherein men seldom die and never
resign. That the recruits for the Civil
War mistook the thing for building
material never raised doubt in
Washington that this was the perfect
food for soldiers. That men preferred
cannon wounds to having box OF
bareback fall upon their toes, was
merely a joke to the War Department.
The teeth cayed in before It, digestion
refused it, hospitals dreaded Il, hun
cry enemies passed it by, no more
moved the powers that be than the en-.
beavers OF an ant move the eternal
hills.
Yet the War Department has come
to the conclusion that field bread
is better than bareback. 1t can be
transported easier, kept quite as well
and is held in higher regard by the
soldiers. So that adamant ration
cousin to pig.iron and father Of mil,
lion cuss words, is to go. The world
moves.

To reCur to Congressman Berger
that astute gentleman no doubt ap
praises the special session situation
pretty correctly when he calls 1t q
game OF holes" in which each politt
elan or group is trying to put his OF
its rival "in a hole"
Mr.. La Toilette was put in hole a
the start by reciprocity. But Mr.. La
Toilette is making frantic effort to
nut the President in a hole in the mat
ter Of those tariff bills-the wool bill
especially. The game is plain; it =
hoped to trap the President into veto
ing a popular tariff bill, III order to
offset the popularity of his position
on reciprocity. Most of US know by
now in general way about what the
Presidents attitude is toward these
special tariff bills. He thinks 1t would
be wiser to defer such measures until
the next regular session when the
data Of the tariff commission will be
ready.
