The American soldiers have good-na-
turedly accepted all the rigidity Of
military regulations, ven to the inces-
SAINT saluting. They have found that
saluting is much more of a hardship
upon an officer than upon the men,
and this gives them comfort. A Lon
don dispatch recites the following Incl
dent: One private who neglected to
salute his captain was required to
stand at attention and salute fifty
times. A colonel sauntered up and
called the captains attention to his
own neglect to return each of the sa-
lutes, and suggested hat they start
yer and mutually salute each other
fifty times. Nearly the whole regiment
watched the saluting duel that follow
ed, and it is safe to say that the salut-
ing requirement was impressed upon
captain and private as well as the audi
ence.

THE STRONGEST
POLITICAL FACTOR.

Stronger than the labor unions,
stronger than any church, creed or par
ty as a political factor today, is the
Anti-Saloon League of America, says
the Washington Times, an avowed
anti-prohibition paper. The Times
says:
1.-The ongre of the United States,
consisting of perhaps s e cent total
abstainers, 80 per cent moderate drink
ers, and II per cent hard drinkers,
votes for absolute prohibition.
Our compliments to the A~nti-Saloon
League for its efficiency, its knowledge
of the congressiona heart and the value
placed by that heart upon its salary"
That certainly is n tribute to an Or
g%anization once thought to be made, up
of ministers and temperance cranks."
The reason the Anti-Saloon League is
stronger than any of the above-men-
toned institutions is hat it combines
