The New President’s Military
Display.
New. York Sun.
James A. Garfield is to begin
liis career as president of the Uni-
ted States with a military pageant
never equaled by any of bis pred-
ecessors in time of peace.
The recent army changes which
make Washington a garrison will
establish there permanently, be-
fore March 4, five batteries, A, B,
C, D, and H, ol the Second United
States Artillery, the fir§t named
being a light battery. In addition,
there will be sent, for the ceremo-
ny of inauguration only, four com-
panies of artillery from New York
harbor, four companies lrom the
artillery school at Fort Monroe,
and Capt. Sinclair’s light battery
of the Third United States Artille-
ry from Fort Hamilton. Here wo
see provided, in the matter of reg-
ular artillery alone, no fewer than
fourteen batteries to swell the mil-
tary pomp that is to usher in the
new government.
Not less remarkable is the con-
templated gathering of armed and
uniformed state troops. They are
going to Washington from all
quarters, by companies, battalions,
and regiments; and Pennsylvania
is even trying to arrange transpor-
tation for a whole division of
militia. The navy and marine
corps will contribute all available
sailors and marines to this great
demonstration ot army strength.
And what is it all for? Are we
going to ape the forms of those cer-
emonials that surround the crown-
ing as ruler a mau or woman never
chosen by the people ? In those
ceremonies, great military displays
are altogether fitting. They exhibit
the foundation of force on which
such a rulership often rests; they
give a significant menace to all who
may dream of some wiser and bet-
ter wayol being governed; not sel-
dom, iustead of a suggestive show,
they are an urgent necessity, since
without them the would-be ruler
might be killt d instead of crowned.
In this country we claim that
the president, if lawfully elected,
rests for his authority on the free
will of a free people, as expressed
iu the way provided for by „their
laws ; so long as that is true,
there is no fit place in our system
for inauguration by bayonet. The
ceremony properly conducted is
essentially peaceful, essentially
simple, essentially civil and not
military. And if it were desired
to invest the ceremony with an
impressiveness, a dignity, a
grandeur, that elsewhere has no
parallel, it could be done if the
man chosen to be the president
should go, utterly unattended and
alone, at the appointed hour, from
his house to the capitol, to take
the oath of office. That would in-
deed be a spectacle to admire, for
there would be nothing like it
elsewhere seen.
The brief discussion that arose
on this subject in the senate on
Friday was wholly inadequate, of
course. It started from an excel-
lent source, a resolution calling
attention to the military shows in-
to which inauguration ceremonies
are drifting. And yet even Mr.
Hoar’s own conception of the
subject he thus broached was er-
roneous, as he made the enormity
to consist in the supposed perilous
lack of responsible command in the
militia to be assembled. That, of
course, is not really the matter
for apprehension, and it is even
based, apparently, on an imperfect
knowledge of the facts with regard
to the great number of regular
troops ordered to be present at the
inauguration, as well as of the fact
that in their public parades, at
least, the militia will move under
the orders of a regular army
officer.
The criticisms on the resolution,
too, were also quite unworthy of
the subject. The true point <?f
view is that more and more the
inauguration of a president is
made the occasion or a military
demonstration; more and more the
military element is concentrated
at Washington, and is demoralized,
by dependence on the favors or
the frowns of a president. James
A. Garfield begins his term on
March 4th with a display that
signally marks the drift towards
militarism.
—New Orleans craves for a lit-
tle rain to cool the air and lay the
dust. St. Paul has steam snow-
shovels at work. New York is
thinking of putting canal boats in-
stead of street cars on the street.
Detroit has excellent sleighing,
Key West has flowers blooming
along the roadsides. This is a
mammoth country, and don’t you
forget it.—Detroit Free Fress.
—It is not height to which men
are advanced that make them
giddy, but the contempt with
which they look down on those
below them,
