Inserted Baker replied that he could
not eonseientiously do anything Of the
kind. Colonel Miller insisted. Baker
persisted. Now Baker is out.
As a matter Of fact. if we view the
matter from the standpoint of strict
military usage, the dismissal Of Baker
is entirely proper If. as Representa-
tive Sullivan said Of Representative
Sulzer, Baker were the man that wrote
the libretto for Webster's unabridged
dictionary il would stnl be his duty
TO spell as directed by his superior Of
ficer. When he refused TO do so he was
guilty of INSTRUMENTATION. Why. if
Colonel Miller had told Baker to spell
cat with three It's" it would have
been Bakers business TO pile on those
It's"
This is, Of course, the military point
OF view, and the discharge Of Baker,
unless he has a friend who is a friend
of the presidents, win doubtless be sus-
tanned by the president, to whom the
case has been appealed. There IS rea-
son in all things, however. The word
routing, as applied TO the transpOr-
tation of troops. IS not given in the
Century dictionary, but neither is il
given with an &c" Common usage
gives it without the &c" and Colonel
Miller should have known it. At least
he should have been amenable TO aFgu-
ment.
