made any such application the proofs OF 1t
would have been forthcoming long ago, i'll the
days when he as President under such
searching scrutiny and criticism. The incident
affords an example of a sapdash style of his
tory writing for which there can be no excuse.
In the recording of incidents of the very day

will now and then occur, and they are often
pardonable. But in writing in cold blood nearly
half century after the event to make a state

SALARIES IN THE ARMY.

In q conversation which was reported in
The Tribune yesterday Major General Greely
drew rather discouraging picture of the lot
Of an American army officer. We have been
told repeatedly that the army privates status
is little better than the plantation laborers,
and the present shortage Of enlisted men has
been ascrfbed 10 the poor pay, hard work and
neagre prospects which the private has TO con-
tend with General Greely seems 10 think that
the officer is In the same boat with the pri-
yate and that a man without some independent
income cannot hope 10 escape debt if he accepts
a commission at the present rates of salary.
Salaries III our military establishment are mod
crate, though they far exceed, except In the
highest grades the salaries paid to officers in
European armies. There is a serious shortage
in officers now, and even the cadet corps at
West Point is below Its normal strength.
Looking about for a reason for this shrinkage
in supply, It is natural. perhaps, TO attribute
IL 10 inadequate compensation
Yet, some comparisons which io0k sensa-
uOnai are misleading. The pessimist complains
that privates get smaller wages than negro
plantation hands and that lieutenants and
captains earn about much day as good
carpenters or plasterers. But, as we have al
ready pointed out in the case of the enlisted
man, such comparisons are inapposite The
income Of the army officer is more properly
comparable with the income of the averag ge
professional maa outside the army-the law

The ministers who yesterday considered a
resolution condemning the omission OF In God

unduly worried over a fact of no such sig
nifcance some of them wished TO make out.
If they had taken their money out of their
pockets they would have found that practi-
cally all of it, all Of il Of more than fractional
value at any rate, without that motto. The
bills Of the United States of various denomina-
tions and varieties printed without the
sentiment and yet one ever thought that
fact indicated that the country was going over
to strange gods gods at all IT, then the
bulk Of the money in circulation can get on
without the motto and escape being profane.
what matters It if one denomination Of the re-
serve money goes without il. too?
