ARMY MAN CONDEMNS MILL.
TARlSM.
WaShinptOn n e.

Democracy found a real champion
here the other day in an unexpected
quarter when Maj. VIM. C. Harllee OF
the United States Marine Corps, be-
fore a subcommittee Of the United
States Senate, publicly uncovered the
whole gigantic scheme Of military
pretence. Senators Chamberlain,
Brady, and Thomas, who had summon
ed him to testify on the compulsory
military training bill, were aghast.
Team Work" had been the depart
mental watchword since the present
preparationist enthusiasm began and
no one had reason to expect a break
in the ranks Clearly Maj. Harllee
regards his first duty to the public
rather than to the so-called War De-
partment ring. That it took courage
cannot be doubted, for before now for
much less military men have been
banished to colonial service or to iso-
lated army posts.
1t might be noted that the removal
machinery was in operation within "a
hours of his testimony. That he is
not now on duty in Porto Rico is prob
ably due to the friendship of Secre-
tary Daniels or perhaps to the grow
ing prudence Of the departmental
crowd who have learned that to pluck
disturber too near to the time OF the
disturbance is poor management.
But the important thing is the mans
message. Compulsory military train
ing he condemned but he went much
further and demonstrated that our
boosted soldier training instead of
teaching skill in the armed defense OF
our country actually units men for
war service.
The military caste system and bar
racks life, with it's petty intrigues and
dissipation for officers, its lackey SER
vice, loss of self-respect and dissipa'
ton for privates- these are the things
according to Maj. Harllee, that de-
stroy the fighting qualities in men.
Officers invariably prefer new men
and when there is real work ahead
dread the re-enlisted man; the reason
is the re-enlisted ones have learned
to Soldier" The effect of regular ar.
my life upon the officers, their fear OF
taking the initiative, as described by
| Mai. Harllee, is even worse. Caste,
in the last analysis, is chiefly resDon'
sible for the decentralization of both
officers and privates.
Our military system is not Amer
lean; it was imported. 1t is today
much the same as brought us by Bar
| on Won Steuben of Prussia when he

LOCAL KNIGHTS ARE BUSILY EN-
GAGGED IN PREPARING FOR PRO-
POSED CAMP WoRK-ACTIVITY
AT FORT SMELLING ALREADY
NOTICEABLE.

During the past week the local
! Council of the Knights of Columbus
has held two important meetings The
object was to hear reports and to
adopt energetic means for the success
of the national work taken up by the
organization for war camp work.
Minnesota's apportionment to the ma
tional fund of one million dollars
being raised by the Knights of Column
bus is fifty thousand dollars. 1t is eX-
pected, however, that the campaign
planned in ST. Paul will enable the
State to over-subscribe that amount.
The assessment Of two dollars per
member will produce the sum of
twenty-six hundred dollars in st. Paul
Council alone. Outside subscriptions
have already come in to the amount of
over two thousand dollars up to last
Monday night. The National cam
paign which will open on Sunday,
July %, and will last for week, was
but recently announced. Up to July
13, a report from headquarters at New
Haven, Conn, announced the receipt
Of $4,000. At meeting of the st.
Council last Tuesday evening, fifty
teams were appointed consisting of
captain with five other members under
him, whose object will be to canvass
the city thoroughly next week, and to
solicit subscriptions from non-mem-
bers. A tent, twenty by forty feet,
has been erected and equipped at
Fort Smelling for the special benefit
of the First Artillery stationed there.
1t serves as a temporary club house.
