list Of changes in the School laws of the State,
which he will recommend forcibly to the Legis-

observation as an educator, and, as he Is red

often, contradictory. An effort will also be
made to secure law establishing uniform

UEN. SHERMAN mas issued 3 General
Order from the Headquarters of the Army, in
which he says "The President is very much
concerned to find before him, for action, the
proceedings Of Courts Martial in several cases
where officers have been tried for violation of
the Thirty-eighth Article Of War, which pro-
yides that any officer found drunk on duty
shall be dismissed the service. The President
desires it to be made known to the Army that
he cannot be led to underrate the magnitude
of the evil which the crime alluded
to is, likely to produce in the public
service, and no person addicted to it can ex-
pect to be intrusted with any responsible duty,
and a person who cannot be trusted had better
not be continued In office. It must, therefore,
be understood that any clemency which may
have been heretofore extended by mitigation
or commutation Of sentence, cannot hereafter
be relied upon as basis of hope for like favor
able action. After this solemn warning, 9
rigorous execution of sentences imposed in
duec course by Courts Martial may be expected" !"
