As many people expected, resolution
has been introduced into the United
State senate reviving the grade of lieut.
enant-general for the benefit of General
Miles, at present in the command of the
army. We hope the resolution will not
pass; not because of any ill-wishes tow
ards General Miles, but. because the
promlscuoCs bestowing of this very hon
orable title will soon render it meaning
less. The title of acknowledgement has
been held by few soldiers, and nearly all
of them were men preeminent for mill
tary abilities. To confer it upon Wash
ington, Scott, Grant, Sherman and Sher-
tdan, was to give them what they had
won, and by the common consent of the
world deserved. Miles has proved him
self good soldier, brave and sagacious
but between his record and that of the
generals mentioned, there are lacking
those achievements which Justify the
bestowing of the most honorable desig-
nation a member of the army can re-
receive. To many pt ople the giving OF
this title to Schoheld did not meet with
approval. In the instance at hand it
would be still more uniting. Let this
rank be given only to our greatest com
manders = each genius in military
lines. In the war with England, if it
comes, should General Miles win this
title, the American people viii gladly
sanction its bestowal. Until that time
let US not lessen it's value by making it
common.

The president, in his message on the
Venezuelan question, stated, in tie
way the commander-in-chief of the arm

have done, the sentiments of the people
of this country on the Monroe doctrine,
and the determination of the govern
ment to insist on the settlement of this,
and all other like questions, on the lines
laid down in the celebrated document
issued by his predecessor, a position in
which he has, practically, the unao-

States, and especially of "our frierS ,
the enemy" of thirty odd years ago
