PLEADING FOR THE CANTEEN. Brigadier-General Frederick Funston, in 'his annual report for the Depart- ment of Colorado, points out that the martial doubled percent of trials enlisted the by ceurt of men has nearly durimg past' year. He says: It is therefore plain that there has been a deplorable increase of offenses in general and: of desertion in parta- cular. In my opinion there are two principal causes for this state of af- airs: First, resentment of wnaccustom- ed limitations and restrictions felt by men. returning from field = service to the monosony and routine work of yarrison life; second, the abolition of the canteen feature of the post ex- change. : "Since ~ this action was taken sa- loons of the lowest type have been es- tablished just outside the boulMaries of the various reservations; their pro- prietors are, in almost every case, un- principled scoundrels who leave noth: ing undone to debauch the soldiers and obtain their meney.
