army of the United States. The con
tinuation Of these men as soldiers
would be the p%erversion Of the army
from the guardian Of the people to its
menace. There was therefor nothing
to do but to discharge the battalion.
The discharge was, of course, without
honor" being a case of fragrant in
subordination. If any Of the soldiers
can prove themselves exempt from the
guilt which the battalion as q whole
incurred, opportunity to reenlist may
be given them.
The president has proved himself
the champion Of army discipline and
the protector OF the people against
the incipient lawlessness of militarism.
He deserves the thanks Of every hon
orable citizen. The question OF color
has absolutely nothing to do with it.

The Brownsville Affair

'a". ..a Il. rNta H...
For the past few weeks the president
has been the target of all manner of
blame for his discharge of the battal-
ion of colored troops, ITO in number,
for completely in murder committed by
from nine to twenty of them. The fav-
orite charge which is brought against
the president, that of impetuosity, has
the changes rung upon it, in forgetful-
ness of the fact that that charge has
never yet been substantiated. The
q~uicknesssef his action is not the alb
sence of reflection. The president has
also been blamed for the discharge of
the battalion Immediately after the
general elections instead of just before
without regard to the consideration
that such an untimeliness would have.
exposed the candidates of his party to
attacks and misrepresentation by.
their opponents, which there would
have been no time to correct. The re-
port on the subject by the secretary of
war, vindicates the presidents action.
The critics, however, can now exclaim
over the case of Bellamy Storer until
further reports concerning that unhap-
Ply matter show that the president acted
in the only way consistent with his
official position. Following that, the
papers that delight in villifying our
chief executive in small ways can fall
back upon the doings of young Roose-
welt in Harvard, who carries himself
we'll under the inquisition.
The facts of the Brownsville affair
as related by Secretary Taft, are as
follows: A number of soldiers, esti-
mated at from six to twelve per cent
Of the whole, angry at insults received

attempt to shield the guilty, by con-:
cealing them, or by refusing or evad-

offence against society and the law,
and is liable to severe punishment.
There is no doubt that the battalion

begged the police not to shoot, and
promised not to run.
