Army Canteen Abolished

The United States Senate, January 9, adopted the House amendment to the army bill, abolishing the army canteen. The dispatch from Washington says: “The canteen is this time knocked out so squarely that no attorney-general can so twist the law as to put it on its feet again.” That is sincerely to be hoped, and it was so thought before; but the same man is now attorney-general that was before, and since what he did before, nobody can be certain of what he can not do in interpreting such law.
