Denial From General Miles on Militia and Indian Relations
A long letter from General Nelson A. Miles rebuts an editorial claim that he said frontier posts should not be left to the militia for war and that Indians would loot them. Miles alleges the piece misquotes him and defends the efficiency of state troops and his own service, noting prior credits to soldiers and the Lawton reception controversy.
