Vneoufbnclt IN TIE ArmY.

General Miles has acted wisely In
issuing general order intended to
promote more trim and soldierly np-
pearance on the part Of the men in
the United States army. All the Amer
lean us well as all the foreign critics
OF our regiments In the Chinese expe-
dftion agreed that the American SOL
diers, while second to none In courage
and efficiency. were deficient In drill
and slouchy in appearance. General
Chafree recently has found II neces-
sary to issue an order on this subject
to his men In the Philippines. Now
General Miles calls the attention of the
whole army TO "a certain uncouthness
OF exterior and !axity OF manners"
which seem to be affected Intentionally
by some OF the troops under the mis-
taken idea that these are soldierly
characteristics. The commanding gen.
eral says offenses OF this kind must
stop.
This carelessness In dress and disci.
pllne appears to have crept into the
army at the time OF the civil war. Up
to that time the regulars were models
OF punctilious proprlety. No European
officers were more insistent In matters
OF discipline and pipeclay than those
of our army before the COS. Tho civil
war called into the field vast bodies OF
unframed volunteers. who In time be.
came as efficient fighters as the reeu'
lars. but who never acquired the per-
fection OF drill or the rigid habit OF
keeping their unlforme In spotlcss
condition. These volunteer regiments.
with their splendid fighting and their
careless dressing. set an example whose
effect upon the regulars remains no.
ticcable to the present day.-Er.
