The question of firing Newton

space for comment in the papers
just now, and the Times fees that
it is prudent for it to drop its voice
into the ring as part OF its duty for
unless the local papers speik out,
the fellows at Washington can
get but a little feeling Of the pulse
of their constituents at home.
By the arguments introduced for
the expulsion of Baker, we learn
that the greatest objections . him
is not because of what he has done
or failed to do since war WIS de-
clared, but the principles he main
tanned before the war, which prin-
cipies gave him then the name OF
"pacihst."
The Times maintained in the be-
ginning that only fighting men
should be put in the game. IA that
event only fighting men should be
designated Us leaders, but since
the forces are indiscnminately made
