OUR GREAT MILITARY NEED.
We must abandon the happy-go
lucky system under which our war
department has always been conduct
ed. We must have a general staff,
such as every armed state in Europe
maintains, if we are to be ready when
the next war comes.
Take, for example, the general
staff of the German army, the most
perfectly organized in the world. It
is a larc body of selected officers
the best id the army from major
generals to young lieutenants. Its
functions are to see that each depart
ment of the service is organized and
efficient, that all are prepared to act
together on the instant, that eyery
item of information for which a com
manding general might call would be
accurately and instantly forthcoming.
The general staff knows every day
where every fun, every cartridge,
every uniform is. It knows precisely
how many railway cars, carts, horses,
etc., there are at every station. It
knows how many troops can be con
centrated at a given point within a
given time. Best of all, it keeps the
several departments quartermaster,
subsistence, medical, etc. in perfect
touch each with the other so that each
will respond at once upon call. All
this is what is called "mobilization."
What a difference it would have
made if we had had some such effec
tive means of mobilization as this at
the outbreak of the Spanish war!
How disastrous the lack of it would
be to us if some stronger nation than
Spain should suddenly force us into
war!
President Maso, of the so-called
Cuban Republic, calls the American
people "our ally of yesterday, our
host of today and our friend always."
This characterization is all right.
The American people have shown a
friendship for the Cubans without
any precedent in the history of the
world. They have expended hun
dreds of lives and hundreds of mil
lions ot dollars to give freedom to
the Cubans, and they did this, too,
without any immediate expectation
of gain to themselves. They promised
to let the Cubans set up an independ
ent government if the majority of the
Cuban people desire it. This promise
will be kept. But there is no reason
to suppose that a majority of the Cu
ban people want a separate govern
ment. When the voting takes place
it will undoubtedly be shown that
most of the Cubans want to become
part of the nation with freed them,
and which is able and willing to give
them the stability and the progress
which they could not gain by a gov
ernment of their own. Cuba, by the
free voice of its r.eople, will annex
itself to the American republic.
Dealnes) Cannot be Cared

reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When thi9 tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling eound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free.
