The Chicago Tithes*Herald says that
fhere will be no cigars or babies named
after Sylvester Soovel, the yellow jonr
nal correspondent, who slapped Gen
eral Shafter. We do not remember
the names of the brand, but a ward
politician gave us a cigar the other
day that smoked like a rope, smelled
like a raptured sewer, and should
have been named after Scovel.—lowa

No woman who marries an old
soldier now will be entitled to a pen
sion alter he dies. The old soldier
with a comfortable pension has furn
ished inducements for many a design
ing woman to wed, especially so under
* the law recently in force, and hie death
did not atop the pension. Bat all ie
changed under a new law which went
into effbet the first of July, and the
veteran who gets married dow will
have the satisfaction of knowing that
he furnishes all the attractions
While a regular army ie needed
somewhat in the proportion to the
extent ol oar territory and the impor
tance and character of the interests to
be guarded .European powers are learn
ing from the present war that the ca
pacity of the United Stales to protect
itself from the invasion of its rights
and interests does not depend merely
upon the site of its standing army,but
that every able-bodied, law abiding,
free and intelligent American citizen
baa in him the element# of a patriot
and a soldier, which can be promptly
brought out whenever occasion calls
for their service —Chicago Tribune.
Roosevelt and Hia Letters-
Col. Roosevelt is cne of the moat
talked of men in this cuonlry at this
time. Hie round robin letter and bio
letter to the secretary of war saying
that the Rough Riders were far supe
rior to ony state volunteer troops have
drawn the attention ol the whole
country to him.
There is talk of a courtmartiai for
somebody in connection with the
round robin letter. The interesting
question in connection with it is, wbo
made it public? Tbe secretary of war
ie satisfied that Gen. Shafter did not.
. It is known wbo made public tbe letter
which Col Roosevelt wrote to the sec
retary. The comment is that the sec
retary made it public tn order to de
stroy Col. Ruoeevelt’s chances of get
ting the republican nomination for
governor of New York. Tbe letter
baa undoubtedly hurt Col. Roosevelt
with tbe national guard of that state.
Still, it may nut prevent him from
getting tbe nomination. A good many
things are forgiven Col. Roosevelt
which would not be forgiven another
man.
It is admitted of course that he is
highly blamable for writing the letters,
but the fact that the secretary made
the one relative to the Rough Riders
public, when there was no very good
reason lor bis doing so, is having tbe
effect of creating a public sentiment
in favor of Col. Roosevelt. As tbe sit
uation now presents itself it is doubt
ful if the letters will do him a great
deal of harm, as far as his political
prospects are concerned. There is no
doubt that the round robin letter bed
tbe effect of hastening tbe prepara
tionsoftbe war department for the
removal of Geo. Shafter’s army from
Cuba,-—Savannah News.
