where. The announcement that
Charles Nagle, former Secretary OF

that while Mr.. Busch was brewing

An Army of Half a Million.

New Orleans States: According to
the chief of the ordnance depart
mentment of our army, the United
States for the first time in history.
prepared to arm and equip "at mo-
ment's notice" an army of half a
million men. This is encouraging so
far as it goes, but it is we'll not to
forget that in the last analysis it Is
only war that provides real test
of nations fighting efficiency. At
the same time is is pleasing to know
that the United States Army has
modern rifles and other equipment
for force Of half million men.
There have been times when it did
not have proper equipment for one
tenth of that number.
At the present time the entire mil
itary force Of the United States,
both the regular army and the State
militia, does not number half mil
lion. hence it has been suggested in
Congress that we might build up
reserve by holding on to men who
have served in the regular army.
After their terms have expired they
might be willing to serve three or
four years in reserve regiments.
If the men who have served in the
regular army could be induced to
form part of a reserve force, 1t
would undoubtedly mean good
deal to the future fighting strength
of the Nation. We have the equip
ment for an army of half million
men today, but as things are it
would take us some time to develop
a trained army to use the equip
ment.

Che Tango as a erObleIH.

The tango, it seems, has attained
the dignity of sociological prob
lem. Mayor Harrison of Chicago mas
appointed a committee OF the City
Council to frame a tango ordinance,
which will decide what is good IN
the modern dance and what is OF the
devil. so to speak. A Cleveland judge
recently constituted himself judge
of terpsichorean morality, and, after
witnessing several exhibitions OF the
famous dance, decided shat it was
within the pale of decency. @
Now we hear that New Jersey
clergyman has faced the problem
brayely. 1t seems that the members
ef his congregation abandoned goif
and tennis and passed their leisure
hours in the tango's exercise. A con-
test between the spiritual and the
temporal seemed inevitable but the
clergyman was a resourcefui man.
He opened the door to the sinner
and has established school IN
which the young people of his par
ish are taught properly the modern
dances.
A tango invasion has swept every
thing before it. A few years ago we
were dancing the dignified waltz and
auadrille of our fathers and moth
ers. Now our fathers and mothers
IN emulation of their children are
Ieaping, dipping and squirming like
frogs on hot griddle.-New Orleans
States.
And all because it has the ap-
proval of society. II the tango is
vulgar and shocking to modesty and
good form, it should be suppressed.
The dignified waltz and quadrille OF
our fathers and mothers should be
xcod enough for their sensible self
respecting sons and daughters.

FaIsehoods Against the South.


What is history but a lie agreed
upon.-Napoleon.
Napoleon may not have been look
ing forward to coming events when
he said the above, but he has hit the
nail squarely on the head as to the
truth Of a great majority OF the
Yankee histories of the Confederate
war. They have agreed upon the
lie' against the South, and are de-
ter1nined that IL shall be handed
down as "history.-Ro Rossier Banner.
And TO fFustrate these fafsehoods
every so-called history written by
Northern men should be eliminated
from every school of the South, and
such partisan fabrication should not
be tolerated in any home of the
South. There will come the time
when the South through the impair
tiaI historian will be vindicated and
elorified for having waged an un-
equal contest in the maintenance of
the principles embodied in the Con-
stitution of the Fathers of this Re-
public against the radical sectional
ism of the North.

Woman Suffrage in Louisiana.

New Orleans Times Democrat: A
State suffrage convention will meet
in New Orleans next week to take up
the question of votes for women. 1t
will appeal to the Legislature for
suffrage, either through an amend
ment or preferably Shrough a con-
stitutional convention. 1t will be
remembered that the proposition
was advanced by Miss Kate Gordon
that the convention soon to meet in
Baton Rouge take up the woman
suffrage question. The Legislature
showed no disposition to order this
lin fact, could not do so under the
Governors call, and it is very
doubtful whether the convention
can or will take up the matter. II
may be suggested that convention
will be called later to make certain
changes in our laws, and the suffi'a-
gists will probably ask that in such
an event woman suffrage be pre-
sented at that time. We deem the
calling Of convention unlikely. The
proposition will probably have to
wait for an amendment and a popu-
lar vote. 1t will probably not be
very difficult to secure such vote.
The arguments in favor of letting
he voters pass on any proposition
are strong. Louisiana has adopted
the most extreme Democratic doc
trine-that the people have right
10 be consulted on all questions and
to vote on them, and while the ref
erendum is not in operation in
Louisiana under the law, it is in
force in principle. The Legislature
has shown a disposition to submit to
the people any question Of import
ance that is strongly supported. In
other words. the Louisiana doctrine
is that if the people want woman
suffrage there is no reason why it
should not be granted
