The report of Quartermaster General Holabird, éxtracts from which have just appeared, contuins several excellent sug. gestions for congressional action in tue hne of increasing the efliciency of our regular army and of its garrisons. The suggestion that will meet with most gen- eral approval on the frontier is that which urges that the troops be concen- trated at military posts on the flanks of the Indian reservations, and that they be quartered in garrisons on the lincs railway where movements can be and supplics ean be ch and speedily furnished. o far ehraskan s concerned, her need of military pro teetion agamst Indian atticks s chiefly confined to her northern border.
