IN view of the demands made a
Paris by the Spanish commission
ers , the president has informed
those who have approached him
on the subject that no more regi
ments will be ordered to be mus
tered out of the service for the
present. He may need every man
in the ranks before the snow flies.
State Journal.
SOME war critics attach significance -
cance to the fact that no profes
sional pugilist drifted into the
army during the war , intimating
that there is no fighting blood in
the class. The insinuation is un
just. The profession is as valor
ous and patriotic as the multitude
of home guards now so conspicu
ously shedding gobs of tears over
the hardships of the soldiers.-Bee.
GENERAL WHEELER boldly an
nounces that he enlisted in the
army for the war and all the out
growths of the war and is ready
to stay in the service as long as
the president thinks him useful.
The contrast between General
Wheeler and some of his military
associates who did not get near
enough to the war to smell pow
der is striking , to say the least.
Bee.
IN the midst of all the worry
about camp and soldiers , President
McKiuley has the satisfaction oi
knowing that he has conducted a
grand aud successful war , and thai
all the so-called mistakes are mere
motes in the sunbeam of achieve
ment which shall illuminate in fut
ure years a glorious page in the )
world's histoiy. Every American ;
knows this , is proud of it , and will
be prouder as time passes. Chicago
cage Record.
TAKE a thousand railroad men
and keep track of them for a year
the way soldiers are watched , note
the mortality rate and be sur
prised. More people are killed in
a year on the railroads of the
world than are killed in the wars
of the world. And yet but few
eulogize the brave railroaders and
many people never give them a
passing thought. Theirs is a gain
ful pursuit , aud notwithstanding
tlieir vigilance and care preserves
the lives of patrons of the road ,
little attention is paid to the high .
death rate. Jouanal.
