A DEMONSTRATION OF THIS REPUBLICAN national platform Is remarkable for Its silence upon several Important topics and Especially noteworthy is Its utter omission to .give any pledges of economy In the administration of public affairi. la view of the appalling rate of increase in the. cost of government under Republican rule It would have been' eminently fitting to give the voters of the country some 'assurance of a more economical policy In the future. But upon this subject the platform Is singularly silent ' The total congressional appropriations during President Roosevelt's -administration amount to $2,449, 228,S45. This Is over $500,000,000 in excess of the appropriations during McKlnley's administration and over $1,100,000,000 more than the total during Cleveland's second term. The cost of government under Roosevelt has been more than twice what It was under Harrison and nearly three times what It was In Cleveland's first term. ; Of course the obvious - defense Is that the necessary and inevitable expenses of the government have been greatly Increased of late years, both by territorial acquisi tions and by growing population. But the defense Is not adequate. The rate of Increase in cost of government has been .utterly out of. proportion : to ur growth In "either territory or. population. During a period of 20 years the population has Increased about SO per cent while the con gressional appropriations have Increased nearly , $00 per cent t If this ratio of Increase In national expenditures Is to continue, as it doubtless will In the event of Roosevelt's nuu i, Good Acvloe to large X-tad ' Solders Down -the stiver. .

Imitation WAR CONTRASTED (By Prof. Edgar L LarklnJ (Copyrlfh, 1904, by W. B. Hearst) The mystery of war. Is one of the In explicable things In nature, and it Is useless to Inaulre why fighting exists. Lin fsct it Is no uss to make Inquiry as to why anything is In existence. All that part of the universe within the rang of vision of the largest tele scope Is known to be governed by rigid laws., not one of which can ne vioiatea without swift and adverse consequences following. As large ss the visible universs may be, everything Is ssen to be ruled by vast laws except men. 1 The writer. In msny years of re search, has been unable to detect a trace of- law ruling . human beings, whether singly or eoUeoted Into natlona The best man In a neighborhood a nhllanthronlst a real . benefit to the community, one whom the people find It almost impossible .to dispense with. Is mors liable to die an untimely deatn than his near neighbor, who may be a moral leper, whoae very presence Is withering. Kings will order thousands of men !xo the very Jaws of death without a wlnge of conscience. To the writer It Is sn Insoluble ques tion why men obey. Why will ths mil lions' march to the cannon's mouth on the order of a monarch? In this rapid age war hae tar deeper results thsn st first sppear. . Ths tele graphic systems of the world sre so per fect that the news of a battle Is soon known everywhere. The eyes of count less' millions slmost see the fields of carnsge. And from known laws of hu man psychology ths effects of these battles are deplorable. . But of all hideous things thst have appeared-on earth moving pictures of sctusl battles on display In theatres ars the worst Thle horror Is new In his tory. Ths writer saw all the horrors of a battle between' the Russians snd Jspanese In glowing, .shifting pictures, 10 feet wide, before the audience in a orowded theatre, - It was a matinee, and the building was full of. women and 'girls.

The contrast between the world's exposition of progress in the Louisiana purchase exposition and the war Is striking in'the extreme. This display is by far ths finest yet made. Ths brain of man is open to inspection in this wonderful exhibit of his majesty, ths developed man. The writer haa been watching the St Louis exposition from Its Inception, mors par ticularly In Its scientific features, and asserts thst the display in all that has been done In scientific research up to date Is far snd away beyond all that has so far appeared. The spirit of man broods over ths vast buildings and the lights of their Interiors.
