AFTER NILES.
The President Going TO Find
Ont III the Commander
TOld the Truth.

Washington, sch. 3--The purpose OF the
president 10 terminate the unsatisfactory
state OF afRlrs that has existed for some
time as tho result OF the numerous char
ges and counter charges and interviews
respecting the character OF the army beef,
by instituting a formal inquiry into these
matters and endeavoring to place the re-
sponslbility whore II belongs, was made
known today. This inquiry Will not be
undertaken before the commission 20 in
vestigate the conduct Of the war has made
It's report 10 the president TIE scope
OF this new inquiry has not been deiin-
ed, but Il certainly will embrace the al
legations by General Miles as 10 the
character OF the army supplies and viii
involve that officer TO the extent that he
must make these charges good and 10
that degree win be on trial himself IN a
preliminary manner Should the charges
be found well established heavy respon-
sibility would be placed upon the pack
ers and persons concerned in the meat
inspection, and perhaps others; should
they fan unsupported General Miles may
be obliged 20 answer 20 court martial
for rejecting upon the character OF 9TH
er officers.
There are two methods by which such
an investigation may be conducted ac-
eording TO established military usage. Tho
first Is by the appointment OF a court OF
inquiry and the second vy the appoint
ment OF what is known as an officers or
inspection board. IN the former case Il
would be necessary 20 name some officer
who Is 10 be the rnbjeot OF investigation
In the latter tho board Is charged simply
70 inquire into a state OF facts. or alleg-
Cd facts, without reference 10 any partic-
ular person. and 10 place responsibility II
possible for anything OF which complaint
Is made. Their findings may serve as
the basis for a court martial quiet as ef-
fectually as the findings OF court OF in
quiry, and has some advantages IN that
IL does not begin with the presumption
OF a court OF inquiry. Where a court
OF inquiry is ordered Il is said there is
conveyed a Distinct reflection upon the
officer nameS Because OF TINS. when the
navy department requested the war de-
pariment 10 order a court OF inquiry 20
investigate the circumstances attending
the killing OF a number OF Spanish prls-
onefs on board the Harvard, the latter

Instead ordered an inspection board, con.
sldering that the ordering Of the court
Of Inquiry might be looked upon a. a
provision against our troops.
such officers boards are frequently or
dered 10 FIX responsibility for the loss or
damage Of stores. and several Of them
have been appointed during the war 60
look into the loss Of meats. notably In the
case OF that shipped 10 Porto Rico and
returned to Montaus Point Like q court
OF inquiry these boards return state
monts OF facts developed by them upon
which the superior authorities can act.
It Is not possible at present 20 learn in
which direction the president leans, but
he has been IN conference with the sec
retary Of war and the attorney genral and
the matter has been discussed IN the
cabinet to some extent As befOfe stat
ed. however. no action Is 70 be taken on
either plan until the report Of the war
investigating commission Is submitted.
Up 10 the close Of the day General
Miles positively declined to discuss IN any
manner the events OF the day 80 far as
they relate to himself, 70 TO discuss any
statements contained IN any of the inter-
views attributed to him It may be said
OF these int, views that while It is con-
ceivable they might figure, they would
not do so OF necessity for the matters
10 be first looked into are those connected
with the character Of the army beef.

no CURE DEFECTS IN CONSTITUTION
Al CONTENTION

Some Of the best and ablest men Of
the territory agree with the sugRes-
tion OF THE LEADER that the constitu-
tion which the convention OF delegates
shall frame for this territory for
statehood, could easily be cured of de-
fects. il experience should develop
that there were any, by subsequent
legislatures themselves, or by the leg
islatures submitting amendments to
IL TO vote of the people at any general
election, without at this time incur
ring the heavy and useless expense of
submitting the constitution at a
special election called for that pur-
pose.
Twenty or thirty thousand dollars
saved to our people sis consideration
not TO be overlooked.
Not one man in every hundred, or
indeed in every thousand, will be able
to say, after he has read the constitu-
ton which the Haven's bill proposes
to submit TO special election at this
necessarily enormous expense, whether
1t meets all the wants and necessities
Of the territory which it clothes with
statehood. These can only be learned
and ascerta!ned and prjyided for by
experience.
The people do not ask to have the
constitution submitted to them at such
an expense. Let IL lake it's validity
from the authority of the convention
which frames IL. The people will be
satisfied.
Other territories have done this and
IL gave the utmost satisfaction.
Besides tn the whole Of the pre-
liminaries for statehood can be ready
for presentation TO Congress when 1t
meets in December, and January 1900
will witness Oklahoma in full fellow
ship :u the sisterhood OF states.
CoHaseea will have TO and must pass

peuAe lS&arred of scbmitting it to a

ly and exclusively upon imaginary
grounds, without reason or fact to
sustain it.
In this connection THE LEADER
copies the following from the Ponca
City Courier;
l.. Beck believes that the fever dis
triet has its line In Oklahoma. He
believes that cattle from Kay county
taken to the Sac and Fox country will
take the fever from cattle In that sec
ton, and he would not run the risk
OF letting cattle from Logan county
into pastures with his natives. Here
is an opportunity for Oklahoma TO
learn something. Let the live stock
sanitary board take a few native cat
tie from northern Oklahoma 10 the
Sac and Fox and they may learn
where the line begins and ends. 1t
would be valuable thing TO know in
the interests OF stock raisers.
