UTTER ronLIsHNEss.

The New York Tribune assails4he
flannel shirt. This is the worst blunder
in the Irtbune's editorial course for
years. II is but an invitation to defeat.
The flannel shirt is too much for any
newspaper In the country.
The 1ribNne's course is the more alb
surd in that ii does not even take facts
for its premises. 1t declares that the
flannel shirt gives a gentleman the ap-
pearance Of ruffian, and that the collar
tickles at the neck. The 7i5une's idea
of what constitutes rude appearance
is trifle crude; its knowledge of the
collars of flannel shirts evidently
limited The flannel shirt, in the
artists eye, is far more beautiful than
the cerements of linen the Tribune
recommends, and q CO. NJ rightly cut,
and of the proper sort of flannel, will
not tickle even the tender neck of the
tenderest and incest young man on the
1Ti6une's staff.
Is Mr. Howells editing the Tribune
now? What is the matter? Was a
mistake made In sending Mr.. Reid on a
mission2 2 Something is wrong when a
great daily newspaper assails the phono-
graph, or Faith. Hope and Charity, or
lovely woman, or the flannel shirt.

NOT SATISFIED.

There Is something droll in the idea
that Major Lydecker resents the order
transferring him to Vancouver Bar
racks, in Washington Territory. He
may congratulate himself that he is In
the army at all. The sentence of the
court. martial which tried him was alb
surd has brought courts martial into dis.
repute throughout the country and
aroused such public suspicion regard
ing the quality of their verdicts That Con-
gress may be called upon to provide a
substitute for them-at least in times of
peace.
Millions OF dollars were squandered
In public work entrusted to the En-.
gineer Corps of the army. A court
martial trying the officer directly impll-
Gated returned farcical verdict. This
officer, even now. objects, il is said, to
an assignment long way from the Cap

far The end of that case is not yet
