Fifty Year After,
Twenty thousand veteran of the army of
Grunt marched In review before the prenldont at
Washington ycBterday, trudRlDg along with tot
tering stops over the route their youoR fe?t had
covered with pprlngy stride In the morning of
their sturdy youth. When President Johnson
reviewed th? vr-tprano, 160,000 men, sunburned,
tanned, luty and vigorous, filled Pennsylvania
avenue with surh a stream of virile life as It
rover had cen and may never again pee. It
was the C.raud Army of the Republic, Just fin
ished with Its fighting on the field of battle, and
ready to take up the conquest of life. Some of
tnem looked back on campaigns from Bull Run
to Appomatox, from 1 to '65, full of the action
that brought a nation out of the depths of war,
and looking forward with clear eyes to a future
rreat beyond the dreams of any. They dropped
the muskets after that march down Pennsylvania
avenue, and took up the tools of peace. States
have been erected, cities built, civilization In all
lis wondrous progress has been established since
then, and these men have had their full share
In the magnificent work. Only 20,000 of them
marched up Pennsylvania avenue In this review,
while all that are left of the men who fought
tinder Old Glory In those dark yeara scarcely
ni-mber more than marched before President
Johnson, but these few are the grand Army of
the Republic, and will so remain while this gov
ernment and its institutions endure.
Just What it Was All About.
Now we know what all this fuss and flurry
over the floating of the Anglo-French $500,000,-
000 loan waa about. The terms upon which the
bonds are to be offered to the syndicate and
underwriters and to the public make it so plain
that any school boy can figure it. The bankers
who are in on the deal are to have the bonda at
96, and to offer them at 9S in other words,
tley are to have two per cent commission for
flotation. The particular banka to share in the
underwriting group are to have their invita
tions from the head of the house of Morgan,
although it Is not disclosed whether or not a
r pedal additional commission is to be paid for
that service. On the $500,000,000 the two per
cent amounts to $10,000,000, which is some
thing worth fighting for, and for which the fight
would have been Just aa keen whether themoney
m as to be loaned to the allies or to the Teutons.
i What Will Rockefeller Do!
The full significance of the visit or John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., to Colorado can not be deter
mined until his final Judgment Is pronounced
and his action taken. Mr. Rockefeller Is now en
gaged in summing up his experience and obser
vations, and has promised he will see what can
te done for the Improvement of industrial con
ditions out there. His visit has been variously
interpreted, some of his critics flippantly com
paring it to the tour of a feudal lord to receive
and enjoy the homage of his vassals and bond
serfs. Why not give him the benefit of any
doubt that may exlBt and concede that he is sin
cere in his professions of desire to be of service?
He has It in his own hands to do much good,
and, with first hand knowledge of the situation,
he may find means to bring about changes that
wfll be of great value to those directly affected.
He 'hasn't gone deeply into things in his short
visit, and has been and still la in the hands of
,men who represent the Rockefeller Interests
there, but he haa in other waya shown a ten
dency to practical methods In his philanthropic
efforts, consequently It la not unreasonable to
look for some genuine good to come from this
inquiry. Mr. Rockefeller has now a great op
portunity, and will shorUy let the world know
if he intends to work any considerable change in
existing conditions.
Mudge and the Bock Island.
The resignation of Henry U. Mudae as lolnt
receiver with Judge Dickerson for the Rock
Inland system clears the way for the suits that
are to be brought by the receivers against the
directors of the defaulting company. While
Sir. Mudge is not responsible for the conditions
that necessitate the suits, being a director in
the one company that is not involved in the
stock manipulations complained or, he Telt a
natural delicacy aa to hla position when called
iipon to appear as plaintiff against his former
csBociatee. ins resignation therefore removes
any embarrassment the government might have
met in this respect. Mr. Mudge may be retained
aa operating executive of the system, although
rumor connecta hla name with the place of presi
dent of another great and successful railroad. He
haa high rank among railroad men and his ac
tion in this affair indicates the high quality of
his honesty, which has been proven In other
ways, along with hla executive ability. The
straightening out of the tangled affaira of the
Rock Island is proceeding apace, and the o wn
ers of the road may yet have back their property
in serviceable condition.
The flrat and moat difficult leeson taught in
five daye to the 4 52 men comprising the volun
teer army in training at Camp Sheridan was
"Obedience to military rules and ordera." The
difficulty of learning it proved more imaginary
than real. Obedience in the military sense
means system, unity, co-operation in workaday
life and the addition of one to the other makes
for greater efficiency in life's battle.
Why not be frank about It? Sending food
to the belligerent countries, loaning them money,
selling them war munitions, furnishing tbem
hospitals and hospital supplies, or helping to re
lieve homeless war vlctlme each Is only one
way by which we share the burden of the fight
to the extent we take it off of the countries at
var, and thus enable, thera to keep up the fight
longer.
That American schemers are responsible for
some of the trouble on the Mexican border is a
matter of common knowledge. Several persona
at Los Angeles and San Diego are under indict
ment for conspiring against the peace of Mexico.
Lack of these tuovemeata, usually well covered,
is the definite purpose of provoking war by
which the achemera might profit through owner
ahlp of Mexican property.
"War obtruded upon ua by criminal aur-l-rlse,"

A Boarding House Keeper
-A. Oleason la Harper's Weekly-
HK is an eldi-rly gpntlewomnn with sort sray hair
Sand a fnci where much suffering has not availed
to leave one line of bitterness. Only from an In
ner kindliness can the lone of the voice end the serv
ice of the hnttds ciime which brine a comfort to a
houseful of strangers. Out of a dull, brown dwelling
on a city street td a group of lonely men and women
'Infinitely repellent particles," she hns made a home.
Plie achieves it by a long patience, a habit of thinking
tha best of fnulty human nature, and a oulet but Per
sistent oversight upon every detail of the establish
ment, from the coal fire In the guests' rooms to thi
desserts made by her own hand.
One key to her success, that ennblea her to hind
lodrers to her with hoops of steel. Is that she buys th
best foods which the market offers. 8he pays the
highest ptlies. and obtains fresh meats and worthy
vegetables. She makes lese money, because she glvra
unusual value In her table. One of her lodgers, a
critical, even "cranky," bettered, disappointed man,
has been with her for twenty yeara. The "help" en
Joys the same quality of food as the star boarde.s.
It Is Just at the point where the element of calcula
tion Is passed by, that she gains her distinction. Kho
cares for her guests as If they were her family. No
missionary to Bouth Pea Islands, nor worker In slum
districts gives more service to his community thun
this sllont. active woman of CO years, who prefers her
calling to the bleak, unrelated life of retirement.
It Is a trying life that of pleasing tired, fault
finding homeless people because It deals in Innumer
able little things: The cleaning of rooms, the prepara
tion of food, the Jangle of the telephone bell, the cere
Irssnesa of hired workers. The hostess of transient
lodgers must consult a Jumblo of personal tastes,
whims, prejudices. The leisured worldlng who sleeps
late and breakfiists In ted, the student who rises early,
the Invalid of delicate appetite. Khe has to calm a
Babel of voices, each one of which Is Insistent to de
elere his own dislike of other modes of thought, and
alien brands of reunion and politics. She performs a
ministry of reconciliation between exasperated person
In the drawing room and fretted workers in the
kitchen. Her own personality must be as persuasive
aa an equable climate, unrecognized but effectual.
Such aa the boarding house keeper.
Aimed at Omaha
fihelton Clipper: If Billy Sunday does not succeed
in converting the sinners of Omaha it will not be the
fault of the newspapers In the Nebraska metropolis.

Omaha papera. If anything they give Sunday Billy
a little more space than they used to devote to Canada
Bill. Prank and Jesse Jamea.

AVtK'A, la., Kept. To the Kditor of
The Bee: Just now the goupcl trumict
Is being sounded In the city of Omaha
with a vim and vigor that Is apparently
shaking the civilized world. Jut what
is accomplished from this source on the
spiritual sido of life goes unmeasured be
cause the field Is too large. There are
too many "lfs," "amis" and "Isms" to
get the real meat of the nut here. The
gospel assists In building spiritually,
while human laws are made to help out
In the material world.
It was In policy court in the big city
the other day when the writer saw the
law vindicated The first case called was
parking an auto againKt ordinance, time
limit being violated. This amounted to
little more than a fractured ordinance.
The next case consisted of drunken
ness and fighting; civilisation lacking
here.
The llKht-flngered wretch known as the
shoplifter appeared next, pleading guilty,
and was given twenty-five days In which
to repent.
Another case was that of a young girl,
whose blue eyes and fair features wore
perhaps a mother's Joy, guilty of va
grancy. Two young men were with her
on the same clmrge, all their ages were
given as 19, traveling the road of Irre
sponsibility together, and who was to
blame? Fingers yellowed by cigarette
smoking were strongly in Notice In this
case.
The dope fiend appears next, who passed
as a fortune teller in an effort to extract
money other than by means ot the sweat
of brow. If there was a human soul
within the specimen of humanity before
the bar of Justice the countenance failed
to reveal it.
Two young men lined up next classed
as "bums," as their violation. The kindly
Judge told them to "hit the pike," go
west and grow up with the country a. a
penalty for their wrong-doing.
Another specimen of humanity ap
peared next whose head was white with
the frosts of many winters, charged with
Doing drunk, and whose declaration waa
that he had only had two glasses of
beer, lie was tenderly given thirty days.
The wife beater appeared In the arena
and received sixty days.
Two descendants of Ham, sisters, were
lined up next charged with fighting. The
green-eyed monster. Jealousy over hus
bands, waa the cause. The man sitting
in Judgment told them shame. Go build
an unsurmountable wall, each brighten
ing their own little corner and sinning no

When o'er my head the axure heave. s
bend;
In dusk ordawn, in travail or In strife,
in all the golden Interludes of life
I think of thee.
I think of thee '
When dsy's long tasks sre o'er.
In summer silence by the vine-clad door:
In busv throngs and haunts of teeming
care.
In gentle moments where no shadows
fare:
In light and dark, in dusk and dawn for
eye.
When morning breaks, when twilight
haunts the sky
I think of thee.
I think of thee
When round me thunders rattle.
When I stand forth to face and fight
the battle;
In hours of rest, in Journey or In playing,
In moments filled with fancies gently
straying;
In hope. In trust, tn courage, dread and
doubt:
In deep. In dreams when star by star
goes out
I think of thee.
