-, Army Maneuvers. I#
= In reviewing the reports of officers
who participated in the army and navy
maneuyers last September, Gen. Cor
bin says that much valuable informa-
ton was acquired. He strongly rec
ommends that similar exercises be
conducted annually, and made to en-
brace each year new theater OF oper--
ations, so that the benefit may be
shared by the different garrisons in
the several fields. of defense. r' :.
Gen. Corbin recommends legislation
providing that Maj. Gems. Merritt,
Brooks and Otis, now on the retired
list, be given the rank of lieutenant
general, and that Coils. Gilmore and
Williston be given the rank of briga-
der generals on the retired list.
Fayors the Canteen. /
Gen. Corbin has the following to say
regarding the canteen. "The restora-
tion of the exchange as it existed prior
to the passage of the act of February
2, 1901, prohibiting the sale of beer is
desired and urged blythe great major
ity. of officers and men, and by none
more than those of pronounced tenn
perance views. Numerous reports
confirm the views long held by this Of
fee that the old exchange contributed
to sobriety, health and cont eminent of
the men. The increase of assertions
and of trials for attractions of disci-
pline is, by those best Informed, at
tributed to the abolition Of the former
privileges of the exchange" *."*'t
Men Should Learn Songs. a
/ In conclusion he says: "The instruc-
ton of our men in vocal music would
be a step in the direction of content
ment and better discipline. Every
regiment should have it's marching
song. Frequent practice in singing,
particularly during the long winter
evenings, would do much to make our
men satisfied to remain in quarters
and away from the baleful influence Of
the barrooms that exist in too great
numbers in the vicinity of all our mill
tary posts. These, barrooms are under
the protection of the license and laws
of the several states, and are beyond
the control of the military authority"

especially for emergencies Of this sort
that the invention Of Arthur L. Stew
ems Of New York City, is intended, our
picture showing the mechanism in use
on an electric vehicle.
The wires leading from the battery
to the motor pass through an auto
matte switch located in the drivers
seat, the switch remaining closed as
long as the driver is seated and open
ing the instant he rises or is thrown.
This is accomplished by Ringing the
seat at the front and supplying a
spring at the rear, with a rod running
from the seat to the switch. When
the invention is applied to a gasoline
or steam carriage the rod can be con-
nected with a valve for shutting of
the power supply.

THE CIVIL WAR.
Southern Idea of the Great strife Be
tween the tates.

Southern Idea Of the Great strife Be
tween the States.
The New York Evening Post rebukes
Gen. Grosvenor for the bitterness dis
played in his declaration that he would
call the civil strife Of 1S61-65 THE
War of the Rebellion" to his latest
breath, and also take exception to the
term chosen by Gen. Grant, viz, THE
war between the states" on account of
its length. In the interests of good
feeling and brevity both, it decides in
favor Of 1.-The Civil War" as the most
becoming title for that unhappy period
of conflict.
The Posts position isl undoubtedly
the proper one. In 1861 s~ecession-as
viewed by thousands whose opinion
Upon any subject was worthy of all
respect-was as much a constitutional
right as trial by jury or the exercise
of The elective franchise, and to apply
the term rebellion" to the govern
ment that these men set up mere
ly proclaims a combination Of ignor-
n and prejudice.
What a similar movement would be
now is a very different matter. The
question was submitted to the arbitra-
ment Of the sword, and was by that
weapon decided in the negative. and
that decision stands for the future.
But in 1861 it was a war between
states, and as such history will re-
gard it.-Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle.
