Private Charles Miller Of the army
service corps at West Point and his
bright young son Frederick c. are to be
congratulated. Frederick, only IS years
old, has won the appointment CT cadet
to the naval academy at Annapolis. He
is a brainy, handsome boy, and will
probably outrank in the future the Sons
of the rich men, the congressman and
officers, whose hopefuls have hitherto
been the only ones able to secure such
appointments. Young Miller is the first
enlisted mans son who has ever been
sent to Annapolis. We are solemnly in
formed that naval and military cir
cles' don't like it. Just so. But the
rest Of the country approves and ap-
plauds. We are the people.
