A PORK BARREL PATRIOT

Congressman Mondell of Wyoming recently made speech in congress rid iculing the idea of preparedness. Does this mean that Congressman Mondel does not believe in spending money for military purposes? Not at all. He is one of the most fervent militarists in congress, only his miIitarsm takes the form of wasting millions of American money for the support of local trades men in two army posts in his state of Wyoming. state that has a popula tion of 145,OOO and pays total income tax of S663 395.
 Military experts have testified again and again that these Wyoming army posts weaken rather than strengthen our military efficiency Yet. at tic close of MT Mondelrs recent diatribe in congress against President Wilson's conscientious attempt to give us better protection, the following colloquy took place:
 Mir Borland. Am right in believing that the gentleman will continue to support Fort D. A. Russell? daugh- ter.)
 MT. Mondell. The gentleman is em- nently right, because Fort D. A. Rus sell is a splendid post, and, contrary to the views of gold-laced fellows. who, every time they go to one of Wilhelm's reviews of a hundred thousand men in bunch. want that kind of thing at home, and in spite of the fact that they want to put all of the troops near the big cities, I still believe the place to keep them is in the posts throughout the country and Fort D. A. Russell is one of the best. Iaughter. )-Burton J. Hendrick in the Worlds Work
