Desertions From the Army.

The subject of desertions from the
army is certain to occupy prominent
place in the forthcomingyreport of the
Secretary of War, and it is altogether
probable that the matter will be bro't
before congress by the presentation
Of a bill designed to check this evil,
which has attained large proportions.
The matter has already been touched
on by Gen. Howard, Gen. Miles and
Gen. Crook, and some months ago
Secretary Proctor caused special in
quiries to be made on this head by
the assistant adjutant Mai
Theodore Schwan. On one point
there appears to be general agree
ment, namely, the desirability of re-
ducing the term of enlistment from
five years to three, or even two. Gen.
Howard believes that there should be
an increase in the reward offered for
the apprehension of deserters, and
| that all civil officers of the govern
ment, states and territories should be
empowered to arrest and confine such
offenders. He also advises that some
arrangements be made whereby en-
listed men may in an emergency sever
their connection with the service with
out personal dishonor and with JUS
tice to the government. Gen. Crook
takes the same view, and thinks that
! fair arrangement would be for the
soldier to pay the amount which his
enlistment and service has cost.

The colonizing of Swedes In this
country is not an experiment but an
established success. 1t has proved
so in Maine, why not in Vermont!
The following statement is worth
columns of theory: The Swedish col
ony which was established at New
Sweden in Aroostook county, Me-, in
1870, was formed on the plan now
proposed in Vermont and New Hamp-
shire and its success shows the feasi-
bility of this scheme of populating
the "abandoned farms" The first
colony included % men, IL women
and 1S children, and the town now
numbers 1000, and is one of the
most prosperous in the state.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE MONITOR
Washington, Noe. II

Washington, Noe. II.
Ex-President Cleveland's visit to
Washington last week to witness the
Bayard- -Clymer wedding was at a
time singularly significant. He came
back to Washington for the first time
since the close of his administration
with his party in the first flush of a
splendid victory. His call upon
President Harrison was the call of a
victor upon vanquished foe, for of
course Mr. Cleveland insists upon
taking a personal view of the result
in Iowa, Ohio and Virginia and at
tributes it all to the growth of the
tariff reform movement throughout
the country. President Cleveland
has grown much stouter, in fact,
enormously and distressingly fat,
since last March. He must weigh
over three hundred and fifty pounds.
His wife, on the other hand, is more
winsome than ever. The haggard,
drawn look of the society leader is
gone. No care rests on her.
Another man who takes a purely
personal view of the result is Corpor-
al Tanner, who was the head of the
pension bureau for a shorter time
than any bureau or cabinet officer
ever reigned before. He states that
the defeat of the republican party is
due to the treatment he received
from the administration. He sees in
the result the hand of Divine Power
operating for the overthrow of the
enemies of the elect. No more gi-
gantic self sufficiency was ever seen.
Among the department clerks and
small officials of republican faith the
belief that President Harrison is
largely to blame for the defeat is
manifest. He has succeeded in max
ing hundreds of distastful appoint
ments throughout the country and he
has withheld from appointing good
ones. Postmaster General Wana-
makers disregard for men who have
done good party service and appoint
ments of men recommended solely by
religious socialties is also given as a
potent cause for the evident dissatis-
isfaction among republicans. Ma
homes defeat is secretly regarded
with satisfaction. Malone has nei-
ther the respect nor confidence of
the republican leaders apart from
Quay and Dudley.
Virginia is essentially democrat
state and the only way to carry it
for the republicans is to spend unit
of money and give every man in the
state who will not work for his living
clerkship in the departments here.
/ This work has been substantially the
the plan and only the occasional re-
straining influence of the civil service
law has made victory for Malone
! impossible.
The news of the Goodloe-Swope
tradegv SO affected the president
that he dropped the book he was
reading to the floor. / knew Col.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

In acknowledgment of the countless
favors that have been extended to the
people of this state during the year now
drawing to close, 1 do hereby designate
Thursday, November 28, to be observed
by the people in their homes, and that in
their places of public worship they unite
in services of praise and thanksgiving to
Him whose mercy is new every morning,
whose faithfulness is unto all generations,
and who is nigh unto all them that call
upon Him in truth.
Given under my hand and the seal of the
state, in executive chamber at Mont
pelier, this eight day of November, in
the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and eighty-nine, and of the
independence of the United States the
one hundred and fourteenth.

Gen. Crook pronounces desertion the
"greatest evil existing in the army,
and says that the present remedies
are entirely useless to prevent the
offence.
There is prevalent idea that sol
dies are driven to desert by the mo-
notony of the life they are compelled
to lead and by the fact that they are
forced to perform a multitude of me-
NAL tasks for their superior officers.
AS to the allegation that they are re-
quired to perform too much manual
labor and subjected to harsh and ty-
ranical treatment, Gen. Crook is of
the opinion that this is true to only a
limited extent; and Maj. Schwan
declares that these causes of discon-
tent sshave been removed so far as it
is in the power of the military author
tiles to do So Maj. Schwan would
give to all peace officers, federal and
state, authority to arrest deserters
without warrant or military order,
and he believes that it would be a
good idea to retain one-third of the
soldiers pay for the first year until
his discharge, the amount to be for
feited if he does not serve out his
term. One thing to be guarded
against is the re-admission to the SER
vice of professional deserters,
whose Identification it is important to
make certain of. On this branch of
the subject an important contribution
has been made in the paper of Maj.
Charles r. Greenleaf, on ''Personal
identity as a means of recognizing
deserters.'
In providing a remedy for the evil
of desertions there is much to be said
in favor of limiting the term of en-
listment to, say, three years; of CIV
ing a soldier the right to purchase his
freedom at any time that he chooses ;
of making the apprehension of desert
ers more certain and the punishment
for the offence severe and it is prob
able that a good effect would be pro-
duced by the retention of portion
of the first years pay. We observe
that Gen. Crook says that the num-
Der of desertions has increased rapid
ly of late years. Trustworthy statis-
tics, however, show that the percent
age of desertions to enlistments has
decreased from 1917 in 1888 to 29.3
in 1889, and the percentage of de-
sertions to total strength of the army
from 1873 in 1888 to 11.6 in 1889.
Nevertheless, in Gen. Miles force OF
5000 men there were no fewer than
400 desertions during the year ending
with last August.-Iribune.

The 400 delegates and thousands
of interested people who were pres
ent at the opening of the W. {. /.
u. national convention in Chicago
evidenced the deep interest that is
felt in this organization. Mrs. Car
oline B. Buell., corresponding secre-
tary of the society, in her address
Thursday afternoon said that the
majority of the convention were
ssstrong in favor of the alliance with
the third party, yet cannot conceal
their anxiety as to the attitude of the
minority, who believe in non partisan
action. Last year the national Off
GERS claimed 10000 local unions,
with membership of 200, 900. To
day the official reports showed 1000
local unions, with membership of
102,16 Such startling figures dis
turb the equinamity of the organiza-
ton, and this evident dissatisfaction
has made strong impsessioD." In
her powerful annual address Miss
Frances E. Willard eulogized ex-
Gov. ST. John as martyr to the cause
of prohibition. She recommended
that the convention ask congress to
pass an amendment to the interstate
commerce law prohibiting the bring
ing of alcoholic liquors into prohibit
ton states; work for the Blair edu-
cational bill and for the Blair prohib-
itory amendment to the national con-
stitution urge the passage of law
forbidding the manufacture of cigar
ests, and QUE prohibiting smoking IN
waiting rooms and postoffices.

The vast majority of sensible men
will at once answer the question IN
the affirmative. 1t is certain that
our commercial relations with the
Latin American States are very far
from what they should be. That
this is the case is very largely be-
cause we have no steamfhip commu-
nications which are at all adequate
with these countries.
For instance, it now costs about
$29 to transport a ton of freight
from the United States to Peru,
while it only costs about S14 to trans
port the same amount of goods from
Liverpool to Peru.
Of course our own manufacturers
are unable to compete with foreign
manufacturers under such clrcum-
stances. This anomalous condition
of,affairs will not be remedied until our
national government lends the finan-
cial aid needed by American shipping
interests to enable them to maintain
frequent, speedy and reliable steam
ship communication with the ports OF
South America. Fortunately for our
manufacturers and our merchant ma
rine the men who are now in charge
xx,I1
have the ability, courage and patrl-
otism needed for the solution of this
problem. The assembling of the
congress of the Three Americans
was the first great step in its solu-
ton. Other and important steps will
follow when the congress Of the
United States comes together at

This revolution in Brazil, turning
out the Emperor and attempting to
establish a republic, appears on the
surface to be ill-tlmed and unneces-
sary. Brazil has an emperor, it is
true, but the government is as liberal
and democratic as is possible to have
in Spanish American State. We
believe, however, that while repub-
lie is the ostensible cause of the out
break, in reality it is reactionary,
caused by the Emperor's emancipa-
ton of the slaves, which has disturbed
the great land owners who are deter
mined, in one way or another, to pre-
vent this great reform going through.

Swope and Col. Goodloe we'll. The
latter was much the ADLER man, an
orator, man of wide travel and
quick observation, of deep learn
ing and vast knowledge of men,
but Col. Swope was by no means
mediocre man. Both were thorough
ly liked and the constant watching
of their friends to avoid any acci-
dental meeting of these enemies dur
ing President Harrison's Inaugural
ton was matter of common knowl-
edge.
A cab drove to the main entrance
to Wizards last night and a tall
man alighted and telling the waiting
porters that the baggage was all
coming on the wagon "doncher-
know passed through the swinging
doors and up to the desk. The gas
light fell upon blonde whiskers,
blonde clothes, great plaid cape
top coat, a big diamond emblem
scarf pin and an enormous diamond
ring. The clerk, grizzled veteran
in the business, was charmed. The
stranger wrote on the register, ''Sir
William Mackenzie and "Sir Roger
Mackenzie and wife" He ordered
a parlor and three chambers with
private bath rooms, and added that
Sir Roger and my lady would arrive
by the next train from New York
and that everything be prepared and
s.of the best" The clerk was over
whelmed. Nothing as gorgeous had
been seen in that hotel since the war.
So when a moment later Sir William
remembered that he must send ca
blegram and ''by jove, hadn't a
pound about him." the clerk joy
fully handed him twenty dollar bill
from the cash drawer. Remember
that this clerk had been in the hotel
business for twenty years, and then
think of that bogus lord-say rather
king of cheek-passing through the
telegraph office and drifting out into
night to be seen by that clerk no
more. The same individual played
the same game at three hotels in less
on1 hn nnlinn haUn
not found him yet.
Vice-President Morton takes with
becoming good humor the seething
| criticisms of the Woman's Christian
| Temperance Union at their Chicago
convention. He simply says that in
giving permission tosa property hold
er for the sale of liquor in his new
hotel, the Shorehan, he was merely
acting the part of good business
man. There is not high class no.
tel in Washington without a bar, and
| wine served at the table. There
were formerly two small temperance
| hotels conducted by ladies, but one
of these bankrupted two months ago
and the other is really coffee house
with few rooms attached for the
semi-occasional guests. The impor-
tance of hotel bar is not alone in
its direct profit. 1t helps hold Gus
tom for nine-tenths of the richer ho-
tel guests will not stop at caravan
sary that is without a bar.
