BUILDING THE ARMY
washington Post)

One of the most puzzling questions
with which Congress has to deal is
determining the size of the army.
Nursing a most commendable anibi-
ton to reduce government expenses
in the interest of the taxpayers, Con-
gress is inclined to cut army expendi-
lures to the bone, thereby net only
protecting the federal treasury, but
at the same time recognizing the prev
alent sentiment in this country
against a large military establish
ment.
But there is a line of consistency
which should be observed, a line of
demarkation between prudence and a
false economy line. in short, which
fixes the limitations of national safe
ty, below which Congress should not
go. The ascertainment of that line
and strict adherence to it will prove
a test of the patriotic wisdom of SEN
ators and representatives.
The present strength of the army
is 100000 men. and by the beginning
of the next fiscal year, July 1, the
number will be reduced to 215,000. In
the pending army bill the House made
provision for an average army of
10000 men during the next fiscal
year, starting with 215.O00 ana grad.
ually reducing the strength until il
reached about 10000. The Senate
committee on military affairs amend.
ed that provision so that it contem.
plates an average of approximately
ITO 900, which is 5000 less than the
minimum advocated by Secretary
Weeks. The Senate yesterday approx
ed the committee amendment.
Thus the question which confront:
Congress is not one of economy, since
every member of both branches is il
favor of saving every dollar possible
in making appropriations. 1t is {
question of judgment as affecting thu
national defense. Arguments for CIT
ting the army's strength down to thu
basis fixed by the House, or lower
based upon pleas for economy, ar
misleading. The question should b.
determined solely upon its merits
because the American people, inten
as they are upon eliminating extrav
agance and curtailing expenses, d.
not wish to weaken the nations arm
of defense.
When Congress passed the army re
, organization bill it provided the foun
dation upon which an army of 1000,
900 men might be quickly built in tn
overlook the nation in April, 1917
, That foundation must be kept stron
and effective at all times if it is to b
relied upon as a national safeguard
and it must rest largely with tn
: Judgment of the military expert:
supplemented by the wisdom of Con
gress, fto decide what number of sol
diers constitutes an adequate cadr

The argument is made that thre
years after the signing of the armis

tions for that purpose before the wa

The Star has heard some criticism
of the officers of the law for not ar
resting the men who abducted Milton
from his home near Kendrick on the
night of May 81, and after carrying
him nearly to Blitchton gave him a
beating and warned him not to return.
It is the Stars opinion that the Off
GERS have done all they can without
exceeding the law. The sheriff has
wired to Milton and written to him,
but has received no reply. He has
also talked to several men in the
community. who. tho indignant at the
outrage, and certain they know who
perpetrated it. will not give him the
direct testimony that would justify
him in making an arrest. If the
sheriff could obtain sufficient evidence
to make one or more arrests, the cir
cult court judge and the state attor-
ney would Immediately give the &C,

them to Jail, bind them over to the

GARDENFLOWERS.
we're Once Wild
Sweet Scented Tuberose
Still Growing Wild in the
Far East
LILY NAMED
FROM WRECK

Many Of the flowers that adorn our
gardens have been procured from
plants which originally grew wild.
They have been changed or improved
by the patient art Of the professional
gardener.
The tuberose was introduced into
Europe from the East Indies by a
Spanish physician in the sixteenth
century. It still grows in its wild
state in Java and Ceylon.
The chequered lily came from
France and Italy about 1850. while
the Crown Imperial lily was first
brought from Persia TO CONSTANT
nople. From there It was taken TO
the Emperors garden at Vienna,
whence it found its way all over
Europe.
It is not generally known that the
belladonna lily was procured from
South America in 1893. while the
Guernsey lily was brought from
Japan and was first cultivated at the
beginning of the seventeenth CEN
tury in the garden Of an English
man in Paris. This plant is said TO
have derived it's name as follows: A
ship, laden with bulbs, was wrecked
off the coast Of Guernsey, near Eng
land. A number OF the bulbs were
cast up on the shore and took root
in the soil. where they grew rapidly.
The first species Of the dahlia
known TO Europeans was discovered
in Mexico and sent TO a professor at
the Botanic Gardens Madrid, who
named IL in honor OF the Swedish
professor. Dahl.
Tho most popular OF flowers. the
rose, is TO be found in almost every
country north OF the Equator. It
derives its name from 'rhos." mean
ing red. OF this plant more than
100 species have been described. and
more than 1000 varieties may be
procured.
