is to be made a reformatory where
men convicted Of desertlon are to be
placed until it is believed they have re-
formed, when they are to be released,
restored to duty with the colors to
serve out their enlistment and, II they
so desire, to be reenlisted and serve as
long as they like.
Army officers expect big results
from this system. OF course there will
be a certain percentage Of incorrigi-
bles without whom the army viii be

will be to get rid Of them as soon as
possible, so that they viii not be

goes to dine people ask: do you

many more. Then some woman is
certain to say: Mercy, I've taken a
cup Of coffee at every meal since l
can remember, and don't think IL

OF late years, in order to avoid a
scene, Smoot usually takes a cup Of
coffee when it is offered to him, but
does not drink it. But this avails him
little. Sooner or later his hostess in
quires:
do you find your coffee strongT
or did you get cream and sugar?"
Then the truth leaks out and the
questions begin.

Why Chief Moore Did Not Preside

IXY EATHER Chief Willis L. Moore
w sent out an order to all the wealth
er stations over the country some time
ago, forbidding messengers and other
youngsters In the service to smoke
cigarettes. 1t had been noted that
boys who forgot to leave weather
maps where they were directed to,
we're nearly all cigarette smokers;
hence the order.
The newspaper paragraphers and
testers heard about the anti-cigarette
order and promptly made merry over
1t. Whenever a weather prediction
went wrong they suggested that Moore
and his men smoke up-and so on.
From this advertising of the anti-cigar-
cite order many got the impression
that Moore wouldn't stand for smok-
ing. An anti-tobacco socoety with
headquarters in a western city arrang-
ed to hold a big conclave in Washing
ton and they proposed to have Moore
preside. Two ministers, officers of the
society, formed committee that came
on here to see Moore, ask him to pre-
side. and have him assist In working
out program for the suppression Of
tobacco IN every land and every cline
Now. II happened that on the day
shis committee struck town Moore

e ENATOR Reed Smoot, in conse-
- quence of his Mormon training,
uses no stimulants-no tobacco, alco-
hOl, coffee or tea. No one who has
never undertaken to go through life
without the use of coffee or tea has
any idea Of the petty annoyances that
such abstinence entails. A man can
quit drinking malt, vinous or spurious
liquors and his friends merely re-
mark: "On the wagon, eh?" and let
It go at that. They don't ask why he
quit, and usually do not insist on him
drinking, regardless Of what may be
the prevailing notion to the contrary
Anybody knows that when man quits
drinking he does so because he does
not wish to take all the natural finish
off bis insides and die ahead Of sched-
ule. or have a befuddled, maroon
brain, much as one can see on the
charts in any Doctors Office.

effect of the plan IN the United States
is the result Of a long investigation OF
the English system made by the judge
advocate general OF the army The
English system has been in effect sew
eral years and has resulted IN o
marked benefit to the army.
The first movement toward the adop,
tion Of the system in the United States
army was the recent order for the
transfer Of all military prisoners con.
Yicted OF felonies under the civil stat
utes to Alcatraz Island, Cal, and Fort
Jay, N. Y, for confinement. and pris
oners convicted of purely military Of.
fenses or civil offenses amounting only
to misdemeanor, to the Fort Leayen
worth prison. Several things are yet
to be done before the British plan can
be adopted in its entirety. but 1t is
hoped by the military authorities that
congress at its present session will
pass legislation to do away with pres
ent obstacles. Under the legislation
providing for the erection Of the new
buildings of the military prison 1t Is
provided that the prisoners must do
practically all the work. 1t is esu'
mated that, under the convict labor
system, two years will be required to
complete this. Other needed legisla'
tion is: to change the name OF the
prison to United States detention bar
racks; placing the barracks under the
control Of the army instead OF the
soldiers home commission; modifying
provisions OF existing laws respecting
the employment OF convicts; remov
ing existing prohibition against re-
enlisting deserters; eliminating provi-
sions Of the law taking away the
rights Of citizenship Of soldiers who
desert in time Of peace.
