IT'S NOT A SECOND DREYFUs
CASE.

II Is being quite commonly asserted
that the action Of President Roosevelt
In the case Of Colonel Stewart smacks
Of the Dreyfns affair. and while iher"
Is no question but that tn" act OF
the President was extremely drastic
and perhaps just as unjust. still
Roosevelt or no other American OF
fetal could make Il parallel OF the
case OF the French ofhcer
possible In America. Looking
at it only from the President s
side OF the case. it is evident that he
thinks the good Of the army requires
Colonel Stewards elimination He nj
so maintains that it is absolutely
within the right of the commandment In
chief OF the army to transfer an OF
ficer from one post to another. ana
makes II entirely clear that he does
not propose to surrender that right un-
til forced to do so, but at the same
time we are not prepared to accept
the statement that this great power.
granting that the President is within
his right. makes Drcyfns case pos
sible In this country.
The press. II nothing else. would pre-
vent Il. Publicity Is easy to obtain.
and army officers know how to obtain
1t. That has been proved not once but
a number of times. The army Of
ficers know how to bring their
grievances to the attention of Con
gress. and 1t would be strange indeed
il 10 voice were raised to defend
prosecuted soldier. The Stewart case
itself shows how easy il is for an army
officer who thinks he is mistreated to
get the ear OF the country. There is
no doubt in our mind that the case OF
Colonel Stewart is one that should
have the careful attention OF Congress
and that 1t ia due to the people to
know Just what was the awful Ofense
he committed, but We can hardly con-
ceive that the present state OF affairs
was brought about by army officers as
was the case in the Dreyfns affair.
The persecution Of the French
officer involved conspiracy in which
perjury. forgery and half a dozen
other kinds of villany played a
prominent part. hut We cannot believe
that such a state OF affairs is possible
, among men who wear the uniform OF
the army OF the United States.
There il no doubt that some JUS
tice is coming to Colonel Stewart but
; his case bear no earmarks OF the
., Dreyfus case and when it is asserted
that 1t does the whole country Is Of
fered insult.
