Show MANLY GENERAL JULES. There is a fine sense of propriety in the action of General Miles in not wishing to draw two salaries. sala-ries. If appointed adjutant, general of Massachusetts Massachu-setts and designated by the war department to that position he. would be entitled to full pay as a major general in the United States army and also to pay from the state of Massachusetts. For this reason the general has informed Governor Douglas that, ho would prefer the honorary position of chief of staff and special military adviser. In this place he will receive no salary from. the state and oidy the pay of a retired lieutenant general from the United State. Capital News, Boise. - . i : |
