For centuries the military leader has
been a national hero. The men that
have fought a war through to a success
full issue, have later ruled their country.
Joshua ruled Palestine: Miltiades ruled
in Greece: Caesar ruled Rome; Napoleon
ruled In France; Bismarck ruled Ger
many: Wellington ruled England: Wash
ington Wins Yorktown. and. therefore Is
wars and therefore go TO the White
House: Grant, Hayes Garfield were gen.
erals; Mckinley was a soldier and the
victorious leader on the battle field Is
lifted to the White House or the gov
errors chair. 1t has been accepted a. a
principle in politics. that brave soldiers
must be made political rulers.

pendulum IS swinging the other way.

soldier and noble gentleman. who sur
