The Coeur d'Alene press. (Coeur d'Alene, Idaho) 1892-1907, 1905-03-04

The Journal amuses itself by tax
ing an imaginary fall out Of the
Press almost every week. Its last
and greatest effort is a statement that
the Press had Topped on the lake
lowering question. This dream Of
the Journal is the result of a deep
sleep which it INDUCED in while the
Press published as an item OF news,
the report Of Engineer Noble to the
government, giving his views on the
use Of the lake for a storage reser-
voir. Such dreams must be pleasant
to the Journal and they do the Press
no harm, since people have learned
to look upon them as vague vapoTings
Of persons without opinions or reas-
ons for their own acts or utterauces-
merely innocent, harmless chatter.
The editors Of the Journal ought to
know the difference between a purely
news item and an editorial opinion.
The Press Is now, as 1t always has
been, opposed to lowering the lake,
but that does not stop Us from
publishing an important news item
like Mobiles report. We fear the
Journal is trying to throw dirt to
cover up the fact that it missed a
good item Of news

GEN. WILLIAMS REPORT
Believes In q Higher Standard fol
Army Officers.
Urges the Restoration of the Cam
teen, On the Ground 1t Is For
Best Interest of soldier.

Washington, Oct. 10.-In his annual
report 10 me secretary OF war, Brig
Gen. Constant Williams, commanding
the department of the Columbia, eX-
presses decided views about the mex
pediency of retaining in the military
service officers who by reason of age,
mental condition or physical ailments,
are unable 10 endure the hardest field
service and intelligently direct their
troops. He would have no captain over
the age Of 40 years, and he suggests a
rigid physical. mental and technical
examination for every officer before he
shall be placed in command If a regi-
ment. A c%orrOllary of this project is a
plan for the compulsory retirement Of
officers to insure the accession to high
commands of men young enough for
active field work.
AS an example. i'll Vancouver, with
& population OF about 1000. there are %
saloons. all situated as near the garri-
son as practicable.
Some of them. in addition to selling
a poor quality OF whisky. also furnish
facilities for gambling and prostitution.
ITO these immoral dens OF infamy
the anti-caHteen law is a big dividend

and court-martials, which he attributes
to the misguided efforts of very good
people in securing the adjustment OF
the army canteen. The soldiers now
go outside the army posts and patron
lze the lowest saloons and resorts,
where formerly they did the little
drinking they felt like indulging in at
the post under proper restrictions and
regulations, and were more eontented
and better conditioned.
Maj. Harrod. of the Panama canal
commission, advocates the establish
ment on the canal zone of the old army
cantcen, with its sale of beer and Other
light drinks. He does not advocate
what might be classed as wide open"
saloons, but believes that canteens or
clubs should be established, where men
could go and enjoy innocent games of
cards, billiards or bowling and. if So
minded, could secure a limited amount
of light drinks. Recreation and ra-
tional amusement for American en-
p1oyes, he thinks, would help solve the
problem of making the canal cons
habitable for Americans.

ouently saved his PARTY from defeat.
Probably the best work Mr.. Tawney
ever did was in connection with the
passage OF the Porto Rican tariff bill.
The republicans only had a majority of
IS in the house, and there were six of
these opposed to the bill, and there
were four republicans absent without
pairs. By skillful work and staying up
ali night prior to the final vote, Mr..
Tawney succeeded in pairing the alb
sent members and securing the con-
sent OF the republicans opposed to the
measure to remain impaired, and as a
result the bill passed by a majority of
Dine. Mr.. Tawney feels that he has
earned the right to retire from this
Tying position, and wants to abdicate
in favor of some other republican in
the next house.

the nations capital. He Is an example
of a man turning ridicule into political
and professional capital, and through
excessive notoriety securing opportuni
ty to display the real talents of which
nc is possessed.
CO.. Lewis advent in congress is
still OLE of the cherished reminis-
cences of the house. He came here as
a populist In the ranks with Jerry
Simpson and men of that kind. He
was too shrewd to appear on the open
ing day of congress and take the oath
OF office in company with $50 other
members. Two days later he showed
up. ana when called on to subscribe to
the oath he had an opportunity of at
tracing the attention of everyone as
he walked down the center aisle,
dressed in Immaculate style, with his
sunset whiskers brushed and flowing,
trousers creased and his whole get up
an impressive example of the sartorial
art. The other populists in the house
grinned, while the republicans ami
democrats sat amazed at this anomal-
Gus picture where they had been led TO
expect a man with hayseed in his hair
and wearing a six dollar hand-me-
down suit of clothes.
Col. Lewis counted on making a SEN
sation, and he was not disappointed.
From that day he was a marked figure
in the house, and he never hesitated to
inject himself into debate on subjects
with which he was familiar. He was
always thoroughly posted on his sub
ject, and the late Speaker Reed on
more than one occasion expressed his
admiration for this aggressive SUM-
burst from the great northwest. Col.
Lewis congressional career made him
a national figure, which has been
turned to good account in the pursuit
of his profession of the law. He is now
a corporation counsel for Chicago and
is making o money than many of
mis- old populistic colleagues ever
dreamed Of.

Oh MS position in the New York mill
TIA, IS a regular army officer, who
gave up his career as a military man
away back in 1869 because of the al
mosr hopeless outlook for promotion.
lie was about to attain his %captaincy,
after having seen hard fighting in the
civil war, but took the advice of a
friend and resigned. Had he remained
in the service he would undoubtedly
nave been a major general to-day.
Tho argument advanced to him and
which led to his resignation was put
to him in this way: There is a big
lump ahead in the army. You will
grow old as captain of a company of
men. You may reach the rank of ma
Jor, n if you stay in the army you
VIII likely die as a major. A business
career offers more attractions. Should
there be hostilities you can get back
IN the army again with just as good a
rank as though you served continu-
CuSly."

Oliver was a first lieutenant in the

lieutenant general. This officer is Gen.
S. 5. NJ. Young, the predecessor OF
Gen. Chaffee in command of the army.
But Gen. Oliver has had many consola-
tons for the sacrifice of his military
ambitions. He came of a military
family, especially on his mothers side.
She was a Shaw in a line that has
been famous in New England for three
or four generations. Gen. Oliver still
shows his military training in an erect
carriage, a direct, almost abrupt, man
ner, and is a remarkably handsome

staff and find his way to the top OF
the latter in that manner. He will &C
back to the Philippines within the next
few weeks and continue in the line OF
duty there. His determination to fore
go a pleasant berth in Washington
which. undoubtedly could have been
his, IS looked on as a very Shrewd
move on his part, as active duty in
the field is more likely to reconcile
some Of the old men in the army to the
idea Of his rapid promotion thar
would a stay in Washington.
1t is generally believed that the con
tinuation of his duties in the Philip
pine islands will mean that Gen. Wood
will succeed Gen. Corbin as command
er OF the Philippine division. There is
more opportunity in those far of
island possessions for an officer to
make a reputation than in any other
department of the army. As Gen. Cor
bins successor, he may have an op-
p~ortunity to add to his reputation. and
it IS predicted that before President
Roosevelt's term expires Gen. Wood
will be at the head Of the army AS
lieutenant general.
Gen. Wood has made some very
strong recommendations regarding the
army in the Philippines, and even his
worst critics must admit that he shows
a comprehensive knowledge of the Sit
uatior there and the reforms that are
needed. He recommends an increased
pay allowance for the non commis-
stoned officers. he recommends the
abandonment of the old haversack, the
adoption of a shorter overcoat and the
issuance of the bolo to all foot troops
He asks for an increase of pay to ex-
pert riflemen and makes other sugges
tons that are recognized as eminentl,
practicable and very valuable. AmcEs
other things he suggests that eforss
lie made to have a number of officer
acquire a knowledge of Chinese nne
