CITY OFFICIAL
A FIT AND Secretary of the Navy
A MISFIT ianapolis in speaking there to the Indiana Press association.
Putting it concisely, he laid down a law of lese maje.ste as to all our foreign
relations. Any criticism of anything done or left undone by the men in
charge of our diplomatic affairs will be regarded as treason by the secretary
of the navy, and he wants all of the rest of us to swing around to that point
of view. He wants "the ethical principle firmly established in American
journalism that the voice of the nation's head once expressed, on a foreign
question, is the voice of the united country."
Let us think, for a moment, to what this would lead. What appeals to
the" intelligence of one intelligent man appeals to the intelligence of other men
j.if that sort. Supposing, for a moment, and for the sake of the argument,
that editors seeing clearly a disastrous mistake about to be made in the con
duct of our foreign relations should, as a matter of professional ethics, re
main silent while the same danger, equally discerned by some member of
house or senate should move to open expression in congress in criticism of the
contemplated act. Would Secretary Daniels' system of ethics run so far as
: to exclude all report of the congressional proceeding from the newspapers, or
does he actually contemplate muzzling congress also ? -, r
The fact is that with a secretary of state burdened with many other than
official cares, there is danger that, returning from a circuit of lectures, he
might easily blunder into acts moving the country toward war as an inevita
ble result. Or', on the other hand, he mieht be open to acts, or to omissions
of acts, which would lead to humiliations worse than war. The independent
press of this country will never waive it intelligence, or surrender its con
victions, in such a manner as Mr. Daniels proposes. Besides, if he could
control the press there would be Congressman Hobson to look after. The
idea invites to ridicule, and light treatment, but it has a side too serious to
permit too much of that sort of treatment. The serious side of it is that a
cabinet minister who can seriously propose such a gagging as this, fits in well
with an administratioa under which King Caucus has been enthroned for
enforcement of the presidential will on congress. But he doesn't fit in well
with American ideas or American institutions.
VOLUNTEER As another result of the wide difference in the position
MILITIA taken by Secretary of War Garrison and the democratic house
committee on military affairs, as shown at the last regular session, there is
expressed from Washington hope that an advanced militia system will be
established at the regular session. This system will be discussed and ap
proved at the coming meeting of the
and a bill will be prepared, which will
rison and General Wood, chief of staff of the army, and of military men
generally in both the regular and state services.
The object sought is to create through the state troops a reserve volunteer
army of considerable size, available for
a -small regular pay for keeping in condition for service. This matter of pay
by the federal government for the organized state militia has been before the
country for a number of years. It was up at the last session, and the house
allowance be made the several states,
cratic majority seem to fear making

to remember that the electoral ticket supporting Mr. Cleveland for presi

eleven hundred votes. Of course I do not remember how many polling
places there were then, but in the state there were probably three or four
times as many polling places as the entire plurality for Cleveland.

he extent of their small pay, notwithstanding the constitution of the United
States makes, all militia federal,militia. There is no such thing as state militu
except as secondary to national militia, under the constitution, yet congress,
particularly in democratic hands, balks at making the militia actually what
the constitution makes it theoretically, a reliance for national defense.
The proposition is a simple one. We shall need at least 600,000 men in
any war we may be called upon to make for national defense, and they should
be trained men ready for immediate duty. We have not, and never shall
have, unless conditions change radically in the future, a standing army of any
such proportions. We must rely upon a volunteer reserve, or second line,
and this must be a trained one. Trie proper place to seek it is in the militia,
by taking from those subject to military duty under the constitution such as
will volunteer to become trained and serve in a trained reserve or an active
militia, subject to immediate serve under direct orders of the president. This
cannot be had without pay adequate to the service performed and the time
expended. No theory of state rights or state .troops should prevent'some such
organization of volunteers from the body of the militia, which the constitu
tion of the United States declares holds first and paramount duty to the fed
eral government. Though proper handling of the regular army and the
national guard, in a few years we might have a reserve organization of trained
volunteers from the body of the national militia, which would be our reli
ance which we do not now possess.
