That is a fact, which the American people will know to! projects ar and they ought to what schemes in advance, if the is coming snd upon us carried out.” The attempt of the Republicans to get Democratic support for the Hull row, by amending it so as to make | any increase of the regular army above | the Presi-| dent, was not a success, dt made no | real change. The Democrats proved | by their votes for the first war appro- | priation, that they were not afraid to | trust the President, but that did not change the principle of ‘the party against the concentration of authority in the hands of one man. Such con-| centration does no harm as long as the | right man exercises the authority, but who can say when the wrong man will come along? The change was not made for effect in the House, | where partisanship will put the bill through, but in the Senate, where its fate will be very much in doubt, un- less the support of Senators, who are now inclined to oppose it can be secur- ed. The subterfuge was so palpable that Representative Loud, of Cal., Republican, made a hot speech against it, plainly telling his party associates that they could not hope to eatch suckers with such a bare hook. Gen, Miles is still piling up evidence official and unofficial, that the beef furnished our soldiers in Cuba and Porto Rico, was unfit to eat. He has already about convinced everybody, except the members of Lhe administra. tion, and of the War Investigating Commission, that his charge was true, but they seem determined (o stick to it that the beef was good. Becretary Alger put another slight upon General Miles in connection with the finding of the Eagen ocourt- martial. The army regulations pro- vide that the finding of a court-martial shall be forwarded to the Secretary of War through the commanding gener. al of the army, but Alger instructed the Judge Advocate to ignore Miles and hand the finding to him directly, and it was done. While nobody out. side the court and officials can swear what the verdict was, everybody is certain that it was guilty, and that the ley would beter be careful or he will shield him, he will find that he have the punishment to bear himse It. | Senator Butler { ture for the election of Benators, by | { vole of the people, called attention to | ture to adopt such a resolution, and { ought to be at once adopted, citing the | several existing deadlocks and scan- {dals in legislatures as an argument in | Apt Foster's Weather for a Conple Weeks the lst to cross and continent | from 25th to 20th, Febru. ary 4.

The Titusville Courier says, a farm- er drove into town today with a good load of bay, which he offered for sale. He visited all his customers and many olhers, but could get no offer, At last, in desperation, he dreve up to a hotel and offered the load of hay in exchange for a dinner for himself and. feed for his team. The hay was not needed, but after some urging on the part of the farmer, was taken on terms propos- ed. The disgusted farmer drove home with no money in his pooket—he and his team having eaten a load of hay at one meal. An Honest Remedy for La Grippe, George W.
