The main point of Major Wal
ler's defense in his court-martial at
the Philippines was that he acted
under martial law, which permits
everything. General Smith bases
his defense on General Order 100,
which defines martial law, claim
ing justification under it's terms for
the murder of unarmed natives
over ten years old. One of the
paragraphs of General Order 100 is
as follows:
Martial law is simply military
authority exercised in accordance
With the laws the usages of war
Military oppression is not martial
law; it is the abuse of the power
which that law confers. Is mar
tial law is executed by military
force, it is incumbent upon those
who administer it to be strictly
guided by the principles of justice,
honor and humanity-virtues
adjoining soldier even more than
other men, for the very reason that
he possesses the power of his arms
against the unarmed."
We have no doubt the courts
martial at the Philippines will sue
oeed in vindicating every officer
who comes up for trial. In that
case the disgrace and cruelty rests
on the American people, and when
it is sifted down that is where it
belongs, for President and Con-
gress are vindicated.
