ecuting Attorney i. ". Selden was to-
day preparing an information to be
filed direct in the superior court,
against Paul r. Haffer, charging him
with crimiually hbeling George Wash
ingtou. At the preliminary hearing held
late yesterday before Justice Frank
Graham, the case was renanded to the
superior court for trial without taking
testimony.
Haffer appeared in court with q tall
stack Of books. prepared to quote auth
critics in support of statements con
tanned in letter recently published,
that the nation 5 first president ex-
plotted slaves, used profane language
and drank to excess. Attorney Pendlc.
ton, representing Hlffer, offered testi.
mouy to snow the truth Of defendant 8
claims, and placed the court on record
as tlatly denying him the opportunity.
IL is supposed his purpose was to lay
the foundation for an appeal in the
event of conviction in the superior
court.

YES-IT IS POSSIBLE
TO STOP RHEUMATISM

Rheumatism is a tormenting and

AN ARMY WITHOUT A HEAD

The resignation of Secretary Garrison has precpitat-
ed very general demand that the head of the war de-
partment be a soldier, trained in the art Of war.
Strange it may seem there have been few military
at the head of the United States army President
Washington appointed General Henry Knox; President
Jacksons secretary of war was General Lewis Cass;
President Johnson in trying to get rid of Stanton made
General Grant secretary ad interim but Grant retired at
the end of six months and the office was offered to Cen
era Sherman and then to General George Thomas both
of whom refused the appointment which finally fell to
General Lorenzo Thomas, who was soon followed by
General Schofeld. President Grant appointed three
generals in succession, Rawins, Sherman and Beknap
Since then the department has had civilian heads
This seems surprising; and perhaps it largely accounts
for our unprepared condition
No civilian it is argued is qualified to formulate plans
for national defense to hold any high military
office.
Officers who fill staff positions in a modern army have
role to play that requires more training experience and
skill than that needed to make an astronomer surgeon
lawyer The profession arms today is of the
most intricate and technical in existence.
Moreover its errors are far costly than those of
any other profession. surgeon who performs unskil
fully and unsuccessfuly major operation has only
VICTIM while the head of an army who through lack of
training makes serious mistake may sacrifice the lives
of thousands and place his army at disadvantage that
is likely to prove even more costly.
The incompetent politician appointed because of cleo
ton services who without army training attempts tO
plan out the details of mobilization to pass upon the
efficiency of military organization jeopardzes the lives
and prosperity of millions of people
