Suppres: of the In- dians, Cubans, Porto Ricans, Mext- cans and Filipinos has been the army's main job, leaving to the mar- Ines the policing of the Caribbean} and the Orient. Thirty-four expeditions were needed between 1860 and 1898 to con- | vince the Indians that they had no right to their lands. Since the Span- ish war, army efforts have been | directed more to subjecting peoples outside continental territory to Amer- [ican rule.

The campaign against the| | Porto Ricans was short and decisive, | jending in 1898, But in 1905 it was necessary to pour more shot and shell j into them, The Filipinos have been particularly unsatisfactory subjects. Their war for independence, drowned finally in blood in 1902, lasted three years, But in 1902-03 the Moros rose. Again in | 1908-06 the independence forces re- | quired the attention of the soldiery. In 1906-07 another campaign was needed, and again in 1909-18 and in! 1914. Fourteen different engage- | ments were fought with the Mexicans on the border between 1915-19. Since the world war the army has been rather inactive, yielding the po-| licing work to the marines. Ninety Days’ Prison For Indiana Editor Who Attacked K.K.K.

Dale, Muncie editor and anti-Klan publisher, have taken the case under advisement and are| expected to report shortly to Goy- | ernor Fd Jackson. The trustees heard the pleas of| Dale himself and of four other men who sought to save him from serv- ing the ninety days sentence imposed by Judge Clarence W. Dearth of the Delaware County Circuit Court, According to Thomas V. Miller, Muncie attorney, who has helped Dale for almost four years, the dif- ference between Judge Dearth and Dale which resulted in the latter's sentence were the outgrowth of at- tacks made by the editor on the “Common justice demands that Dale be kept from serving a ; Single day of the sentence,” Miller said. Dale was convicted of con- | tempt of court after he had referred in his paper to Judge Dearth as a nsman. When he criticized his conviction he was tried and sentenced |a second time.
