RAIN MADE CAMP
VERY DISAGREEABLE

Heavy cold rain, which fell all day,
made camp life for the soldiers so posi-
lively miserable that it scarce made up
for the lessenirg of their duties incident
to the encouragement it lent to the
congregation of mobs.
Quartermaster Vandling was busy all
day erecting cook shanties. putting in
floors in the tents. drawing off pools,
and doing whatever else was possible
to relieve the discomforts attendant
upon the rain.
Despite the inclement' weather and
their hard work, the soldiers are keep
ing perfect health. The hospital has
not, as yet, had a single patient.
There was big business done in rub
ber boots at the camp, yesterday.
Scranton stores had to contribute large
ly from their stocks to help the Oily
phant dealers supply the demand.

If the ink used in the Execu-

down Pennsylvania avenue at one

Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1902-10-02

Apropos of military affairs, the pro-
test of the Secretary of the Navy a
gainst the Congressional practice OF au-
thorizing the construction Of battle
ships without providing for an adequate
number of men to man the new ships,
deserves consideration. The authorized
enlisted force of the navy is but $4,000
men, while within three years the ships
completed, in addition to those already
in commission, will require, in order
that they may be properly manned, APP
proIimately $4,000 men. AS will be
readily understood, it if impossible to
fill these places instanter. Men must
be put through vigorous training be-
fore they are competent to manipulate
even under the nirection of experienced
officers, the intricate machinery of the
modern warship. Secretary hopes to
arouse public opinion on this score sc
that hereafter, unqualified praise will
not be meted out to the Congress which
authorizes the construction of new war
ships without providing for the neces-
rary crews.

Much interest attaches to the report
of Brig. Gen. Funston, just made pub
lie at the War Department, from the
fact that he seriously deprecates the alb
clifton of the army canteen. He reit-
crates the old statement that that abo.
lition has been followed by the estab-
lishment of saloons OF the lowest char
acter, Just outside the army reserva-
tions, and that their influence on the
men has been most pernicious. He sums
up the action Of Congress. abollshing
the canteens in these words "In short,
the recent legislation by Congress on
this question, so far as this department
is concerned, has had no effect, except
to lower the discipline of the army, ru-
in scores of good soldiers and fill the
pockets of lot of saloon keepers and
gamblers"
In view of the repeated statements
of the advocates of temperance, that
the abolition of the canteen has not had
this effect, it would be interesting if the
General would specifically name the in
situations which owe their being to the
absence of the canteen.
