The studied insults to General Miles
by the Roosevelt administration,
which resulted in the climax in his
official retirement on last Saturday
August 9Th, as Lieut.. General OF the
Army, without one word OF com
mendation for his past services, has
raised a storm of indignation over
the country. 1t was clearly the in
tention of Congress in abolishing this
office that General Miles should be
the last commander-in.chief of the
Army; but the Precedent appointed
General Young Lieut. General for the
ten days intervening between Gener-
al Miles retirement and when the
new law goes into effect. Though
General Miles did not retire until
noon Of Saturday, General Young
attended his reception OF the army
officers Saturday morning wearing
the stars Of the commanding gener-
al, thus brutally Designating all the
proprieties in an effort to insult Gen.
Miles.
