When they came to grips with the Alpine Chasseurs .whose uniforms are blue they were so satisfied with their fighting ability un til the}’ called them “the blue devils”. When the haijdy, raw- boned Scotch Canadians "'who came from the mining centres., lumber camps, and fishing banks of Canada, and whose kilts resemble abbreviated skirts, gave the Germans a taste of tneir fighting abilities 3 they received ■ the nickname of “the ladies from hell.” l^ast week the Germans were intro duced to the American Marino Corps, or at least to that part of it around Chateau- Thierry. When the * battle was over and the Ger mans counted their losses re ceived lrom these soldiers ot the sea they promptly called tnem “the devil hounds”. Praise from the German soldiers is praise indeed. . The Marine Corps has for ite ideul to be the finest fight lug unit in the world. Jt is not satisfied to be as good soldiers as the English Coldstream Guards, the French Foreign Legion, or the Prussian Guards, but goes them all one better. The naval recruiting officers l o will sometimes tell a candidate whom they have turned down - for minor physical defects, “you can get into the army all* right". The physical stand ards of the Marines are set.high 'Until only one applicant in fen is ub e tfd pass them.

In 1870 they fought in Formosa .and Corea to protect American in- tiyests. Next they served in ^Alexandria, Egypt, liC 1888 to prevent pillage. In the. next few years, they served in Pan-, nnia, Valparaiso, Honolulu.

He then went into a discus* sion of taxation. In 1905 they were 5Vi mills and in 1916 when the chair man of the-Ways and Means Commit-^ tee, they were only 5 mills. At the rate of expenditures under the present Administration the State will become bankrupt.

He referred to the State Board of Charities and Corrections as a use less body; we already have a Board of. Regents for the Asylum.
