Mckinley and the Army.

If the evidence brought out by
the commission appointed to invest
igate the manner in which the late
war was conducted proves anything
it proves that there is a broad field
for improvement in the military
branch of the United States govern
ment. 1t shows, too, that this field
should be industriously cultivated,
to bring the army up to that state OF
efficiency which the people have a
right to expect. Just who will do
this, or in what manner it will be
done, is an open question, but the
action of individual members OF
the Eagan court martial, and what
seems to have been the ill-advised
clemency of the President toward
General Eagan, give little encourage
ment for the hope of an early mark
ed improvement in army circles.
When an officer of high rank can so
grossly violate army rules and reg
