The decision handed down last week
by Judge Sutton, after consultation
with other judges on the district bench,
denying a motion in connection with
the liquor license appeals, on the
ground that the machinery of the court
is not to be used to enforce compromise
agreements made outside of court, has
not attracted as much attention as it
deserves. The conclusion reached by
the district judges should apply
equally to the police commission in its
capacity as licensing board. where
the mischief started, by the lending Of
its authority for the execution Of black
mailing schemes and other private
agreements. The annual holdup Of APP
plicants for liquor licenses on protests
made for mercenary purposes could
never succeed except for the connivance
or indifference Of the police board.

An interesting question raised by an army
officer this week has been officially deter
mined by the judge advocate general as to
whether colonel commanding a separate
department may now convene a general
court-martial under the authority conferred
by the I'D Article of War. General Davis
says: THE arrangement of the territorial
department into divisions in no way dimin-
ishes the authority conferred in the I'D
article upon colonies to convene general
courts-martial; the power to convene, being
conferred by statute, cannot be diminished
by an act of the executive in grouping the
departments into territorial divisions. In
deed, the practice of the department has
always been to recognize the department
commander as the normal converting au-
thOrity, and TO permit colonel who, for
the time being, succeeds to the command
of a territorial department. the power to
convene which is carried by the I'D Article
of War;

General Camille c. c. Carr. while in
command of the Department Of Dakota,
recommended an important change in the
method of issuing fur and blanket-lined
overcosts to the enlisted men Of the army.
This is a matter controlled by paragraph
LIS of the army regulations, which author
lies the issue OF such overcoats to men
performing guard duty or field service
when exposure TO weather would jeopardize
life or limb by freezing. General Carr
urged that the provisions of the paragraph
be extended so as to authorize the issue to
teamsters, overseers, mechanics etc,
whose work exposes them to severe
weather, and also to all troops serving at
posts where the temperature goes from 20
to so degrees below zero. The general staff
has had consideration of the proposition
this week, with the result that the first
part of the recommendation of General
Carr has been concurred in and approved
by Lieutenant General Bates.

Much newspaper speculation last week
has been applied to the appointment of a
new brigadier general, who shall occupy
that position permanently in place Of Cen
eral c. G. c. Carr. 1t was stated that Cap
tain John j. Pershing. Fifteenth cavalry,
OF the general stan, on duty as military
attache of Toxic. would be appointed In
stead announcement Us made at the War
department of the selection of Colonel j.
w. Bpbb, Twelfth infantry, on duty in the
Philippines, and the second officer on the
list of infantry colonies. This appointment
meets with hearty approval and is a re-
freshing example of transient sanity in the
method of selecting brlgadiers. 1t is to be
regretted that the policy of conlnniR APP
pointments to senior colonies is not to en-
dure without conspicuous exceptions cal
culated to arouse criticism and create de-
moralization in the military personnel The
next appointment TO a brigadiership will
undoubtedly be Captain Pershing. That
officers friends, indeed. are already impa,
tient al the executive delay in recognizing
the influences which are described as hav-
ing obtained from Mr. Roosevelt a definite
and positive promise of Captain Pershing's
tremendous jump. 1t seems the army is
not to entirely escape acrobatic favoritism.
