The country has no prejudice
against Mr.. Baker, 1t is free
ly willing to concede that the
War department has done a good
many creditable things under his
management. But the fact re-
mains that the Secretary of War
was chosen in the first instance
to replace a man who had to 90
because he was too insistent upon
preparedness for an administra,
ton which was bound to keep Us
out of war; and he is, as he Vas
when he took up the portfolio
which Garrison laid down, a pac-
fist at heart, an idealist, states
man, if you will, but not a prac-
tical administrator in whose veins
flows the mixture of blood and
iron which wartime demands.
