Admirers Of Funston Hand Bouquet
20 Grant.
From the Kansas City Star.
General Fred Grant, in addressing
"a New York Grand Army post named
in honor of his father. declared last
night that Funston's achievement in
capturing Aguinaldo was Of little merit
or consequence. OF course, Grant
ought 10 know. for he is just from
the Philippines. Then. too. he is a
great soldier. is Grant He is a grad
uate OF West Point. and would have
been inverted. To one OF his brilli-
ance the tedious processes of the
regular line could not be expected to
DE otherwise than irksome. so he
resigned from the regular establish
ment and took his chances with the
political influences that he might
bring 60 bear upon his promotion in
the volunteer branch. That his judg-
ment was sound has been shown by
the fact that he has been given the
rank OF brigadier general. and while
this distinction was not bestowed by
unanimous popular consent. IL has
NttN aNAeilttu Us n uluEt tl lSSs thstiANdi
honor for the son OF great father.
The disappointment comes in the
fact that such great soldier as Bril-
gadier General Frederick Dent Grant
should expose his fellow generals.
Funston had no political pull, but
simply went out like a common soldi-
er. took his life In his hand and won
his star by lighting General Mac
Arthur and General Wheaton, both
veterans. foolishly regarded the cap
ture OF Aguinaldo as daring deed and
an important turn in the insurrection
or course. II they had only thought to
consult the great General Fred. they
would not have recommended the pro-
motion Of the foolhardy little Kansan.
But. really. General Fred. d. ought
90 be more soldierly than to expose
the hoyish weakness of Funston and
the foolish susceptibility OF those old
war horses. Macarthur and Wheaton.
