THE ARMY CANTEEN.

The War Department is in receipt Of
data concerning the canteen question and
the effects of its abolition upon the army.
Appropos of this, the statement is made
by the Department that only such infor-
nation as has been contained in the army
officers reports upon the subject have
been given to the public, and it is denied
that any effort has been made o influence
public opinion on the subject.
1t is claimed that the recommendations
of the Adjutant General in his annual re-
port were based upon the information
contained in these reports. The existence
of about 400 saloons in the vicinity of
army posts, it is pointed out, is shown
by the reports received at the Department,
$50 to 300 ofwhich are said to have been
! opened since the closing of the cantcen.
| This further statement is made at the
| Department:
"Thc majority of posts have reported
| that drunkenness and courts martial for
drunkenness have increased; that de-
scrtion and absence without leave have
increased; and the effect of the closing OF
canteen upon the morality, discipline and
health of the troops has been bad, and,
while many post commanders are, in con-
sequence of frequent changes of garrison
and from the absence ofcorrect data upon
which to base comparisons, unable to re-
port as to the degree ofdetriment created
by the closing of the canteen, it can he
stated as an absolute fact that in no single
case has post commander expressed an
opinion that the effect of the abolition OF
the sale of beer in the army has resulted
in improved conditions"
Attention is called to the reports from
army officers in the Philippines. and it is
said at the Department that, while the
reports on the subject are too voluminous
to be given to the press, they arc on file
and are at the call of Congress if they
should be desired.
With reference to the reports from The
Philippines a statement has been made
public at the War Department epitomiz
ing the annualreporto fBrigadier-Gencra
Sanger. Inspector General of the Division
of the Philippines. After narrating TIN
evil effects upon the human system of TIL
native liquors the statement says:
ITO remedy these conditions the pos
exchange, at which light beer was sold
was exercising wholesome influence, ant
General Sanger believes that the exchang
should be again made a possibility by re
moving all restrictions on the sale office
and light wines.
ITO the fear so often expressed by TIL
opponents of thecantcen system, that tn
: sale of beer would initiate or induce habit
: of incompetence, General Sanger show
! from a careful census OF the $40 companie
! of troops in the Philippine Islands that i
!. 60 companies every enlisted man used v
nous, malt or spirituous liquors at dat

90 and 100 per cent , in accompanies be.
tween so and so per cent, in 26 CON-
pGnics between 70 and 80 per cent, in 20
companies between 60 and 20 per cent.
Unfortunately quite number of men
habitually drink to excess, and as this
number probably will increase if the men
are obliged, as now, to resort to native
liquors in order to satisfy what to many
of them is a perfectly natural craving, the
result will be most deplorablc.'
General Sanger concludes with the re-
mark that ut is hardly probable, in view
of this information that Congress will
continue the prohibition against the can
teen when it is evident that the sale of
beer would be 4 prccaution against the
pcrnicious habits above stated and their
fatal and disastrous results"

81 like to see my family at Church"
And why not like to see yourself there?
Church is the place for them; you pass
your Sundays in idleness, or making
visits, or casting up accounts, or taking
walks. How is this? Were the Com
mandments given to your family, not to
you? Are men better than their wives,
sisters, children; that they do not require
what these do? Or, are they so impcni-
tent as to be beyond recovery? What is
the cause? Is it really so, that you like
to see those dearest to you do what you
will not do? Really, you only like to sec
them at church, and YOU do not oppose
their going, but you would not care if
they did not go. 1t is matter of indiC-
ference hence they may come to follow
your example, and only like to see other 5
families go, but will cease to go them
selves. Like to see them go?" indeed :.
