THE REAL POLICY.
MAN va, rr,h>

1t is evident that we do not need
standing army of more than 100000 for
ordinary police purposes at home. Is
the Baker March bill for a regular es-
tablishment of more than 100000 men
drawn with view to providing $50, 900
or 100000 men for foreign service? Mr..
Williams deserves credit for forcing
this issue into the open and possibly
uncovering the administrations real
policy in the near east.
