that the refusal Of the president and
the secretary of war to accompany the
order announcing General Miles retire

upon his brilliant record, first in the
Civil war and later on the frontier as
an Indian fighter, has caused a ire

Some officers go so far as TO say
that the action of President Roosevelt
and his secretary of war will bring
General Miles to the front as a promi-
nent probability for the position of
commander in chief of the G. A. r.
Before departing Tor San Francisco,
General Miles again took occasion to
say that he was not to be considered
a candidate for this office, and that If
his preference were consulted General
Black of Illinois. would be the new
commander in chief But General
Miles has never gone on record as
saying he would refuse this high hon
or in case 1t were offered him. And
some Of his more partisan friends de-
clare that they will see to it that he
lis given the opportunity to accept or
decline the position.
It is a significant fact that high
ranking officers of the army who have
hitherto differed with General Miles
in his criticism Of the administration
are emphatic In their opinion that an
injustice has been done the army and
the veterans of the Civil war in the
refusal Of the administration to give
recognition to the indisputable bravery
which General Miles showed through
out the Civil war and later when fight
ing the Indians on the frontier They
take the position that it would have
been entirely within the pale of pro-
lpriety for the secretary of war in his
