They are Captain Alger, son of the secretary of war, who has been serv ing in the rank of assistant adjutant general, and Captain McMillan, son of the administration United States senator from Michigan, who has been serving as assistant quartermaster. It was appointments of this char acter, made solely on political and family considerations, which led to the frightful abuses of the war de partment during the recent war. The service was loaded up with these ycung sprigs, while officers of life long training were held in retire ment. An example of this gross discrim ination is under the eye of the Spo kane public. Major W. II. Miller is one of the most efficient officers in the quartermaster's department. He has trained for a soldier, and has had long experience. haviDg been gradu ated from West Point in 1872. He was not allowed to take any part in the war, but was kept here in charge of the construction of a new army post work ot considerable import ance in time of peace, but of small consequence in time of actual warfare. He was kept in the background in order that political and family favor ites might be pushed to the front as young Alger and young McMillan and scores of others were pushed to the front and entrusted with duties for which they were unfitted duties upon which hung the lives of our soldiers and the very existence of our armies. If Alger bad been a man of strong character he would not have given an appointment to his son. He would have understood that in so doing he gave every place-hunting politician a twist upon his administration. "When senators and others of influence came asking for the appointment of their sons and nephews, he could not shut them off with the statement that -nepotism, which is bad in peace, be comes almost criminal in time of war. It is refreshing to contrast with Alger's low course the patriotic con duct of Thomas Jefferson. Writing on March 27, 1801, to his kinsman, George Jefferson, he says: 'The public will never be made to believe that the appointment of a relative is made on the ground of merit alone, uninfluenced by family views; nor can they ever see, with approbation, offices, the disposal of which they trust to their presidents for public purposes, divided out as family property. Mr. Adams de graded himself infinitely by his con duct on the subject, as General Wash ington had done himself the greatest honor. With two such examples to proceed by, I should, be doubly in excusable to err." During the recent war the country has seen a scandalous "dividing out of offices as family property." Spokesman-Review. . . Corn may be put to more uses than any other product of the farm, and now comes an Eastern manufac turer who is turning out a fabric made from the oil of coin which, it is claimed, will soon be running neck and neck with the rubber product of the country. So acute have the relations be- tween England and France become that the marine and life insurance companies of England are inserting war-risk clauses in their policies. This does not mean, however, that the companies expect war. With them, as with the French, the belief is general that only the unexpected happens. BUSINESS LOCALS.
