THE AMERICAN NA VAL OFFICER.
Any landsman who has cherished the
proud conviction that the organization
of our naval service is a close approach
to perfection can have his eyes opened
by reading the vigorous criticisms of
Park Benjamin published recently in
Harper's Weekly. It seems that while
the naval equipment lias been improving
in its mechanical features the system by
which it must be utilized in time of
battle is decidedly primitive- As at
present organized, the advancement of
officers of the line depends entirely up
on the retirement, resignation or death
of the superiors. Individual merit and
conspicuous ability don't count. If an
officer lives long enough or the men
above him are sifted out rapidly enough
by circumstances he may reach a high
place. If not he will linger along as an
underling until his (!2d birthday, though
he be a man of genius and all the super
iors be dunderheads.
Mr. Benjamin presents a suppositious
case in which members of three genera
tions of the same family are in service
on i;.e same inau-oi-var. inev are a
son, a father and a grandfather, and all
are lieutenants. Tho grandfather was a
lieutenant thirty years before, and his
grandson will likely bo a lieutenant
thirty years hence. The inevitable re
sult of tliis system, as Mr. Benjamin
points out, is to discourage ambition
ami cast a lethargy over the entire ser
vice. Worse than that, it puts the com
mandin offices into the hands of old
and en'ebled i;.en. In the present
state ot the warship a naval battle is a
contest of brains. Its repult rests with
the man i:i the coi.uing-tower, who
must be cool, nerve-controlling, active
anil resolute. But .insiead of vigorous
men in their prime, who have won place
Jjy their talents, oar conning-towers are
1'Uled with patriarchal officials, placsd
there not for ability but because they
havo outlived everybody who was above
them. .
The talk of ten days ago has been re
vived about an Indian uprising at Pine
Ridge agency predicted by Dr. Magilli
cuddy ns one of the early possibilities of
15(93. It is not unlikely. Peace to an
idle Sioux Indian, with his pony satis
fied with grass, is almost as unendurable
aa soap. The red man who prefers loaf
ing to farming must uprise with the reg
ularity cf a ninepin and dance the ghost
dance. Then when the government has
issued him a little more beef lie proceeds
to jump over tiie pale of civilization and
thin out the 7th cavalry. While bad
management by t he government is a cry
ing evil at the reservations, there is still
too much sentiinent in the Indian ques
tion. Too much beef, also. When an
old-time farmer's unruly team ran away
and sifted itself through a worm fence,
eleven high, the owner sat down by
the roadside and philosophized. There
must be a reason for tho accident. He
pondered it and he reached a conclusion.
It was too much oats. Civilization is
not responsible in itself for that great
law of tho survival of the fittest. An
idle, well-fed Sioux Indian is always a
menace. Give him less beef and more
responsibility. Teach him honestly and
sensibly to work for a living. A clean
skin, too, is conducive to a good temper.
It is said there is much talk in Eng
land of the propriety of abolishing the
office of poet laureate. That there is
none great enough to till the chair held
by Tennyson j.- signally and painfully
apparent, and no doubt a large portion
of tlie English-speaking public would be
more than content to sea the office re
main vacant. Nothing has been ad
vanced, however, to show that Mr. Glad
stone may not keep the post unoccupi".!
without permanently abolishing it.
Why not leave it in harmless desuetude
till a man fit for the task appears?
Then, if it is a really worthy poet that
springs into view, there Will be' no
shallow-pated incumbent standing in
tho way and drawing ridicule down
upon his laureled head.' Certainly, the
plan would be infinitely better than to
accept any one of the candidates now
mutely coaxing for the place.. The two
men who are most threatning possibili
ties are Lewis Morris and Alfred Austin.
Morris ia a pleasant gentleman of good
breeding, who would look well in a red
jacket and dock breeches riding after
hounds. Austin is a literary dude.
A. building tcp
of the entire system follows the use
ot Dr. .Pierce's Favorite Present)
tion. . It's an invigorating', restora
tive tonic, soothing cordial and
bracing nervine - and a certain
remedy for all the functional de
rangements, painful disorders or
chronic -weaknesses peculiar to wo
men. It improves digestion, en
riches the blood, dispels aches and
pains, melancholy and nervousness,
brings refreshing sleep, and restores
flesh and strength. For periodical
pains, internal inflammation and ul
ceration, leucorrhea and kindred ail
ments, it is a positive specific a
guaranteed one. If it fails to give
satisi action, in any case, the money
paid for it is refunded. No other
medicine for women is sold on these
term3. - With an ordinary medicine,
it can't be done.
That's the way its makers prove
their faith in it. Contains no alco
hol to inebriate; no syrup or sugar
to derange digestion ; a legitimate
medicine, not a beverage. Purely
vegetable and perfectly harmless in
any condition of the system.

Too Much of a Jiislt.
It is not unusual for colds contracted
in the fall to Jiang on all winter. In
such cases catarrh or chronic bronchitas
are almost sure to result. A fifty cent
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
will cure any cold. Can you afford to
risk so much for so small an amount?
This lemedy is intended especially for
bad colds and croup and can always be
depended upon. For sale by Blakeley
