oyfRsTtPrtD ms Authority

The people all over Mississippi
are asking. "What Are Court Mar
tials For?" This inquiry Is made
because Of the remarkable action of
Governor Vardaman in reprimand-
ing General Keesler after a court
martial, regularly convened, had
heard all the evidence Of witnesses
and all the instructions Of the Judge
Advocate General; had examined the
law and the precedents--in short,
had done everything necessary to
arrive at a just conclusion--and then
found a verdict Of not guilty.
Likely General Keesler trembles
in his boots when he reflects what
his COMMANDMENT Chief would have
done had the court martial found
him guilty.
II had been thought that IL he
we're really guilty Of a military Of
Tense the reviewing authority would
reprimand him, but evidently no
pent-up military laws confine the
powers Of the Governor, since he has
no authority to add anything to the
finding of the court. The members
Of the court martial are analogous to
the jury in civil practice and the
Governor TO the Judge. Who in all
the wide world ever heard of a Judge
sentencing a man whom a jury had
declared not guilty?
We are not on the roll Of advisers
Of the Governor, therefore we do not
offer him any advice, but il we we're
we would suggest the proprieiy Of
his censuring those two soldiers, who,
wearing the insignia Of officers and
gentlemen, were SO ignorant or neg
ligent Of the usual custom amongst
gentlemen as to fail to acknowledge
the receipt Of a most ample apology
which General Keesler made as long
ago as last July-long before any

A Precedent.

Army and Navy Journal.
 Lieutenant-C Colonel Edwin F. Glenn, in command of Columbus Barracks. IS the officer who recently ordered the at tendance of soldiers at religious services There is a precedent for Colonel Glenn in the history of the army which might have been of service to him had he been familiar with 1t. We had in the army in former years an officer named Gustavus Loomis, who was graduated from the Military Academy in 1915. was retired in 1863, and died in 1872. When Loomis was colonel of the bth fnfan- try. in 1851, he interested himself in the religious instruction of the soldiers under his command. He had them pa raded, and asked that the Catholics who were willing to accept an invita- = tion to attend mass shoud step out of the ranks and fall in for church ser vice. He then extended the same invi- tation to the Protestants to attend their church. The unregenerate, who did not care to go 10 church at all. were next lined up and ordered to He ten to the reading of the army regula- tons until the recall from church was sounded. In this way they received wholesome instruction in their military duties, and learned at the same time that there were performances more te- dious than the attendance upon relig- ious worship which is recommended by the regulations.
