In his annual report Gen. MACARTHUR,
commanding the Department of Cali
fornia, regrets the frequency OF deser-
tons. In the year covered by the report
1874 men deserted. Of this number 9l4
were from the permanent garrisons Of
the department, nearly 20 per cent, Of
its military force The other deserters
we're from recruits, casuals, and regi-
ments passing to and from the Philip
pines
Gen. MACARTHUR cannot understand
why SO many men deserted:
III the depressing result could in any way be
attributed to American methods, 1t would GER
tainly Justify the deepest solicnnde on tho part
of all concerned In the military administration Of
the nation
Perhaps the result is less depressing
than it looks. Most of the deserters
we're on garrison duty and either sickened
of the monotony of it, thought to better
themselves in country which offers SO
many opportunities, or carried still fur
Their the passion for roaming and adven-
ture which brings to the army 80 many Of
its best men.
Desertion may be regarded, in large
part, as the weak side Of some of the most
salient and valuable characteristics Of
the American soldier, his independence
and power of initiative and ability to
take care Of himself. 1t is natural that
he should be more impatient Of restraint
and fonder of doing things on his own
hook than other soldiers. 1t is hard
work for the camp to subdue the instincts
implanted by the town meeting. In
peace he is less of soldier and more Of
a citizen.
No doubt most of these deserters
would be brave and faithful soldiers in
war. The rigidities of discipline and the
terrors OF military punishment have
less force in the United States than else
where. Yet there are no more effective
soldiers than the Americans

several clever comedies which deal di-
rectly or indirectly with the foibles Of
fashionable society; but for that reason
simply it is not safe to regard him as an
authority on the subject.
Mr.. HOWARD is unquestionably right
in saying that immoderate drinking has
fallen into disuse and reproach in all
respectable circles Of men at this period
or, at least, it is far more ntolerantly re-
garded than it was in times past. 1t has
come to be looked on as an offensive and
a degrading manifestation, though once
it was treated as an amiable if not in

The Savannah morning news., 1903-12-30

pecially in the late centuries, aside
from texts and versions authorized by
the Roman Catholic Church, the pri-
mary question concerning the Bible
has been as to the genuineness and
authenticity of the text. Have we the
Bible as it was originally given? Have
we the exact readings of the original
texts. Hebrew and Greek, and have we
adequate translations of these texts
into English? 1t is not a church
question in any sense of the word. 1t
is literary and historical question,
precisely as would be a similar inquiry
concerning the writings of Julius Gaze
sar or of Shakespeare. The church
cannot authenticate the Scriptures, as
the Roman Church insists. On the
other hand, the Scriptures must au-
thenticate the church"
1 do not think L fully understand
what is meant by the phrase: Aside
from texts and versions authorized
by the Roman Catholic Church, but
partially admit the truth of the state
ment that there were questions as to
the genuineness- and authenticity of

were far more important questions as
TO the canonicity of certain parts of
the Holy Scriptures.
1t is quite true that in the DAYS
which antedated the sixteenth century
men were perfectly well aware that
there was an authority to which APP
peal could be made.

AUTHENTICITY OF THE SCRIPTURES
Bishop Kelley of Savannah Discusses Catholic
and Other Bibles

Editor Morning News: In your
Sunday edition 1 find an article. I'M
der the caption THE Bible" taken
from the New York Examiner
/ must confess that am unacquaint-
ed with the Examiner and hence I
have no idea of it's Importance. 1 do
not know how far your publication Of
this article may be considered as an
Endorsement of it. While the pen may
be mightier than the sword, 1 am not
prepared to admit that the scissors
and the paste pot are rivals of the
first.
In commenting on communioa-
tion written by Catholic priest in
New York the Examiner says: ''The
Cathode Church does object to the read
ing of the Protestant Bible" etc. That
church teaches that there is a Pro-
testant Bible and a Catholic Bible and
that 1.-The two Bibles vitality differ Speak
ing of the English Scriptures, there is
a Catholic Bible, which is printed I'M
der the Church's authority and which
alone her children are permitted to
read, but there is no Protestant Bible
This fact should be repeated in Sun
day-school and public school until it
is universally understood and appre-
ciated."
There Is onlysone authorized version
OF the Catholic Bible and that is the
Latin Yulgate. II has been trans
lated into other tongues and when
the local church authorities are salts
fed that the translation is accurate
they give these TRANSACTIONS an i'm
primatur which merely testifies to the
accuracy OF the translation.
The statement that there is no Pro-
testant Bible is a surprising one TO
me. There is a Charlottesville consist
ing Of seventy-two books, VIZ, in the
old Testament forty-five and IN the
New Testament twenty-seven. All the
Protestant religious bodies reject some
OF these The first book Is unques-
ti0nably the Bible as used and an
