he intended to give up his portfolio.
The continental army scheme II the
only recommendation OF the War De-
partment that the House committee
does not favor. In view of this fact II
is too bad that Mr.. Garrison felt he
must resign. He Is absolutely right on
the Philippines question.

army to the 136 1000 men recommended
by the department or even more than
that. There is not. however, a single
