D. Stabler, Kinner $ Sarah J. Nibley were the ‘anpual convention of the | Marsiaud | Sunrduy Selool Union in Baltimore, October 14, 15 and 1 as alto decided to fold 2 mass meeting at the Conduit’ Road Mission school Sunday, September 27, Vice President F. B. Horner in chi Mise Ish putes has removed to W tive or retired, to the reform school of the District for the purpose of imparting military Instruction to the inmates. The law under which officers" of the army or navy may be detailed to duty at educa- tional institutions Is contained in section 1225 of the Revised Statutes as amended by acts approved September 26, 1888, Janu- ary 1801, and November 3, 149%. Taken together this legislation provides that “The President may upon the application of any established military institute, seminary or academy, college or university, within the United States, having capacity’ to edu- cate at the same time not less than 130 male students, detail an officer of the army or navy to act as superintendent or pro- fessor thereof." The number of officers which may be so detailed is limited to 110, and it is provided such officers shall re- ceive the full pay of their rank. It is also provided that “no officer shall be detailed to or maintained at any of the educ tional institutions mentioned in said act where instruction and drill in military tac- tics Is not given.” Another provision of the original act 1s that officers so detailed “shall be apportioned throughout the United States, first, to those state instl- tutions appiyirg for such detail that are required to, proyide instruction in mili- tary tactics ander the provisions of the act of Congress ef July 2, 1862, donating lands for the establishment of colleges where the leadingrobject shall be the prac- tical instructionrof the industrial classes in agriculture and the mechanic arts, in- cluding military::tactics, and after that, said detatls to be distributed, as nearly as may be practteable, according to popu- lation.” In acting adversely upon the applica- tion of the District Commissionere the War Department .uthorities took the ground that the District: reform school was not an educational imstitution of the kind or character mentioned in the law governing the detail of) officers of the army or navy. Precisely the same stand had been pre- viously takep inthe case of similar appll- cations on she Part of several reforma- tory institutions:in other parts of the country. 4. In his consideration of the question, Gen. Miles made the suggestion that as there appeared to: be lack of authority for the detail of an officer of the army or navy to the District reform school it might be advisable for the local authorities to en- gage the services of some non-commisston- ed officer, thoroughly conversant with mili- tary drill and tactics, who is no longer con- nected - with the military establishment. Gen. Miles considers a course of military instruction an excellent thing for the boys at the reform school and says that the Commiestoners could accomplish the de- sired training in the way he suggested, pro- vided there i no legal objection to the ington to reside. Ss ROHIBITIONISTS, POPULISTS AND Influence Sam Jones May Have on the Result in Georgia. Correspordence of ‘The Evening Star. ATLANTA, September 189 Sam Jones can hardly restrain himself from taking the stump for the fusion tick- et in Georgia. The fusion is between the populists and prohibitionists on the prohi- bition question. Mr. Jones, the evangelist, is the strongest kind of a prohibitionist. He has always declared that he would stump the state for any party that would put a prohibition plank in its platform. But he had also promised Gov. Atkinson to support him for re-election. So he cannot come out and oppose Atkinson, but he is taking a hand indirectly. Demand for Representation. A few days ago he addressed a long open letter to Chairman Steve Clay of the demo- cratic party, demanding that he should ac- cede to a request from the populists in rc- gard to a division of managers and clerks at the polis. Mr. Clay had promised to use his influence to give the populists repre- sentation at the boxes. The populists asked Clay to have the officer in each county who appoirts the managers and clerks to sign an agreement to divide. This Mr. Clay re- fused to do, stating that he had no author- ity to require it of the county officers. Now this is what made Mr. Jones mad, and he threatens to fight the democrats two years hence unless they give the populists a fair election this year. The truth is, such a request as the popu- lists want Clay to make would be ignored in a number of counties. He has been told so by leading democrats all over the state. ‘There are some counties in the state where the populists will have no showing at all, and there are others in which the populists wil have everything their own way, and, as Sam Jcnes says, will “chew up ballots after midnight. Vote for Prohibition. On Surday night Sam Jones addressed 8,000 people here in Atlanta, and the morai of his sermon was “vote for prohibition. If he were to go on the stump and make @ozen speeches over the state he would come very near electing Seaborn Wright, if he did not succeed. There is no man in Georgia who can draw one-fourth as many people as Sam Jones can attract. He is wonderfully effective, too, and the demo- crats are congratulating themselves that he is so bound by his pledge to Atkinson that he cannot get out and fight openly for the fusion ticket. structor.
