the people who were complaining because
the soldiers had not arrested tho rioters
had very improper conception of the po-
sition of the troops In the matter. He OK
planned that they were ordered there mere

the State. They had no Independent func-
tions W hatever and had absolutely nothing
to do with any disorders that may have oc-

duty of the civil authorities to enforce the
law and all the troops could do was to pro-
tect them in so doing.
