If soldier receives conflicting orders
rom ms military superiors, and from
tho ciHii authorities or rather. | should
say, from the officers OF the courts Of
law, TO which must he give preference?
mo natural assumption is that he
should yield obedience to his military
superiors, since obedience Is the basis
of all military discipline. That mis-
however, is not always tho case. was
demonstrated tho other day by Sir Ed
M.ru Eldlcy. ono OF the Judges OF the
i'lgh Court In London. who declined
10 accept as an excuse tor tho ABSENCE
OF a defendant, an officer of the Cold
stream Guards. tho plea that nc had
been obliged 10 obey a summons OF his
commanding general, in connection
with his military duties.
Sir Edward Ridley. speaking from
tho bench, declined to admit that SOL
diers or their officers wcro exempted
from responding 10 summons from
The Court OF Kings Bench. by amy
considerations OF military duty, and
gave Judgment against the officer. MS by
default
The army act, according TO Sir Ed
ward Ridley, provides that soldiers OF
the regular forces shall be exempt from
jury duty, and that they shall not be
liable TO lie taken out Of Hts Niaiesty's
service by any process execution or
order OF any court OF law or othcrw Use.
or be compelled to appear in person
before any court OF law, except in
respect of the following matters: ION
account Of charge OF crime. or on
account of debt, damages or SUM Of
money where the amount exceeds thirty
pounds"-that Is. $3.50. The official
Manual OF Military Law. moreover. cx-
prcSsly lays il down that the words
cited above DO not relieve Il soldier
summoned as a witness In a court of
law
Sir Edward concluded by insisting
on the fact that a soldier is subject
to ali the duties and liabilities Of an
ordinary citizen. save where exempted
10y statute. On these grounds the
judge held that tho officer in question
Lieutenant lvor Rose one of the Roses
OF Rayners. Bucks, had been rcmss
and was even in contempt of court.
II seems that there is an ancient
statute, according To which the SOW
cieiSn can give protection from civil
process, to combatants actually in tho
field. But there is no case on record
OF this law having been invoked for
near eco years past
While Sir Edward Ridley has thus
emphasized the superiority OF civil to
military law. his vicws on the matter
would certainly not be accepted in
Germany. or in many OF the other mill
tar5 powers OF Europe. For thcro q
soldier is bound TO blind obedience to
his commanding officers, and IL he were

tho superiority of civil law. he might

NO APPOINTMENT MADE.
Annapolis Examination Will Be Held
Next January.

A letter from Congressman Wyatt
Aiken in reference to the examina-
ton held in the city some weeks ago
for two vacancies in the United States
Naval acdaemy at Annapolis says that
all the candidates made such poor
showings that none of the list will
be appointed at this time.
Mr.. Aiken says another examina-
ton will be held about next January,
due notice of which will be given
through the papers.
There are two vacancies from this
district at Annapolis and one at West

gible for these places do not realize
the Importance of the matter, as very

A Victim For An Example.

Yorhville Enquirer.
1t must have cost Governor Blease
a considerable effort to make that ap-
peal he wired to President Wilson in
behalf of Milton A Carlisle; but new
ertheless the governor was right, and
we think it would be the part of wis
dom, justice and mercy for the presi-
dent to exercise clemency in behalf of
the unfortunate Mr. Carlisle. We have
no words of justification to offer for
Mr.. Carlisle's offense; but we do know
that hundreds of others have done the
same thing and gone scott free. Mr..
Carlisle has only been the victim of a
desire to make an example, and he has
suffered enough. Why. we say that it
must have cost Governor Blease an
effort is simply this. We know of our
own knowledge that beginning two
years ago every effort has been made
by an element in this State to keep
Mr.. Blease and President Wilson
from coming into personal contact,
and there is abundant reason to sus-
pect that the reason Of this effort was
a fear that if the two should become
known to each other, the result would
be the establishment of friendly rela-
tions that would have tended to re-
verse some conditions as they now ex-
ist. We have not been able to see that
President Wilson has gone out of his
way to offend Governor Blease, nor
has Governor Blease gone out of his
way to curry favor with the president
We believe that if President Wilson
could be made to realize the real stu
alton, he would at once take steps to
straighten things out, and this we sus-
pect could be very easily done. The
issuance of a parole for Mr. Milton A.
Carlisle would very likely bring the
two executives together, and at the
same time go a long way toward re-
storing political harmony in South
Carolina.

Don't Forget The Beasts of Burden.
The following rules, issued by the
Boston Work Horse Parade associa-
tion, may not be amiss:
l. Load lightly, and drive slowly.
2. Stop in the shade if possible.
8. Water your horse as often as
possible So long as horse is work
ing, water in moderate quantities will
not hurt him. But let him drink only
a few swallows if he is going to stand
still.
f. When he comes in after work
sponge off the harness marks and
sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth,
and the dock. Wash his feet but not
his legs.
5. If the thermometer is Is de-
grees or higher, wipe him all over
with wet sponge. Use vinegar wa
ter if possible Do not turn the hose
on him.
6. Saturday night give him a bran
mash, cold; and add a tablespoon OF
saltpetre
7. Do not use a horse mat, unless
it is a canopy-top hat. The ordinary
bell-shaped hat does more harm than
good.
8 A sponge on top of the head, or
even a cloth, is good if kept wet. II
dry it is worse than nothing.
g. If the horse is overcome by heat
get him into the shade, remove har-
ness and bride, wash out his mouth
sponge him all over, shower his legs
and give him four ounces of aromatic
spirits OF ammonia or two ounces OF
sweet spirits of nitre in a pint OF
water or give him a pint of coffee
warm Cool his head at once, using
cold water, or if necessary, chopped
ice, wrapped in cloth.
IL. If the horse is off his feet try
him with two quarts of oats mixed
with bran and little water; and add
little salt or sugar. Or gle him
oatmeal cruel or barley water tc
drink.
II. Watch your horse. If he stops
sweating Suddenly, or if he breathes
short and quick, OF if his ears droop
or if he stands with legs braced side
ways, he is in danger of a heat or
sun stroke, and needs attention at
once
12. If it is so hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night, tie him
outside. Unless he cools off during
the night, he cannot well stand the
next days heat.
