into the yV conduct of the war will fully dean t C omstratc the utter falsity of the charges that there were needness v privations and sufferings imposed upon tho American soldiers In- S view of the

line f worts rolled forward for protection uTtlio living Frozen min were placed for dumbsentries Uric Gen John 13 Imbodenof the Confederate army makes a Matement respecting the moving- of wounded from Gettysburg back to Virginia which story if told during the SpanishAmerican war would have caused a riot the btreets of Washington and almost uvury city in the United States t Gun Imbodcn was in charge of the wagon train which carriedg from Gettysburg to the Potomac thu wounded of Lees army It is as follows The column moved rapidly considering tho rough roads darkness and from almost every wagon for many miles issued heart rending wails of agony For four hours I hurried forward on my way to the front and in all that time I was never out ot hearing of the groans and cries of the wounded and dying Scarcely one in a hundred had receivedad equate surgical aid owing to the demands on the hardworking sure goons from still worse cases that had to be left behind Many ol the wounded in the wagons had rbeen without food for thirty six Their torn and bloody clothing matted and hardened was rasping the tender inflamed and still oozing wounds Very few of the wagons had even a layer of straw in them and all were without springs The road from irhukilled strong men if long exposed to it From nearly every wagon as the teams trottted on urged by whip and shout came such cries- and shrieks as

tould bring from them while a majority with stoicism sustained by blind devotion to the cause they fought endured without complaint unspeakable tortures and even spoke words of cheer and comfort to their unhappy comrades of less will and more acute nerves Occasionally a V wagon would be passed from which s Only low deep moans could be heard No help could be rendered to any of the sufferhrs No

all were wounded and utterly helpless in that vast procession of mis cry During this one night I realized more of the horrors of war than I did jn all the two preceding years It is strange that with all these facts of history well established so many people arc now disposed to believe any statement of neglect or suffering of soldiers which appears in the public prints no matter how unreasonable Thc people have been very pa tient in waiting for some statement coming from official sources that would give the people of the United States a clear understand ing as to the result of the great blunders and cruelties that arcI charged in the management ol the- war on the part of the officials at Washington Why people should believe that thu hotpitlls aroc tombs and the camps pest has been a mystery Irom the firstI for tombs have tenants and pest holes breed pestilence Somebody must have died if BO many have sufiercd The deaths in haute have amounted to 332 the deaths in the various camps are reportedof ficially to be 751 divided as follows CainpVikoff i6o- Campl3lack 4 Inand around Santiago359 Jacksonville 79 AU other camps 148 Total V 751 This gives us a grand total of 1083 out of an army of 268000 men four to each 1000 men or less than half of one percent This loss docs not ccccd the usual death rate in most of our cities but it is not the purpose to make comparisons Irom civil life IN TilE CIVIL WAR The official tables published by authority of the War Department- show that 199720 men died of disease exclusive of those who died in prison being 85 percent of loss in the whole war The- proportion of these deaths due toI army life was 167720 as 32000 would cover the loss in peaceful pursuitsAdd those who died from disease the 250000 who were honorably discharged for disability you get a total of 349720 being an- average loss to the army for each day of the entire war of 240 men- The relative losses if applied to the present war allowing the presI army to be onefourth of the strength of the Union army in the field during the civil war would be one fourth per day of 240 or 60 per day The troops haying continued in the field fully three months or ninety days the total loss would have been 5400 whcrcasit is according to the report ot the War Department but 1083 from all causes No fair minded critic will dispute the reasonableness of these comparisons of which must prove that the and care of the present far exceeded that in the great civil var- This incident of great mortality from disease is cited in proof of fact that soldiers going from North into the Southern cli can not escape the ravages of disease The only mystery connected with our army is how- many escaped and that so few have died Of those who died from disease in the civil war onefourth died from fever principally typhoid onefourth from diarrhea one fourth from lung trouble and one fourth from miscellaneous causes From this fact it will be apparent that typhoid fever and diarrhea arc not new diseases in the army The 5th Army Corps corn manded by Maj Gen Shatter was composed of six regiments of regular cav lr nine batteries of regular artillery eighteen regiments of regular infantry and three regiments of volunteer infantry He had for duty at the time of the attack on Santiago July i 17358 men and 852 officers These were engaged through a series ofas sa battles

Will It Come A pertinent question is that asked by V Sin the New York Evening Post Will there ever come a time when Instead of boasting of the miles of asphalt pave ments In our cities we can describe the excellence of the country roads When I stead of talking of the colleges and hi ofschoolsthe education given to farmers sons atIda daughters in the country schools A time when farm life will cease to imply loneli ness drudgery and Intellectual stagnation and when to live In the country that GeIdof has made will be thought better than 10 live in the town that man has built The approach of that good time though it may seem afar off isI brought nearer and nearer every time our system of public I ways is improved The annihila tion of miry muddy miserable country roads will greatly enhance the social life of farming districts and greatly lessen the drudgery of its labor Political Exigencies Mr Louis R Ehricli of Colo rado the great free silver and silo ver mining State said at the re Icent Monetary Conference at Omaha that the silver question woul have disappeared from our Na tional political horizon were it not the exigencies of the politic ans There is where the rub comes The

loss troopsbnot help but wonder that so great victory was obtained with such small loss The relative loss of an army can only be measured by the number men engaged The same is true with reference to regiments andcompanies Out of twenty five regiments in the union army during the late civil war from whose rolls a special report has been made the greatest loss in killed In perLWisconsin Infantry the ist Maine Heavy Artillery and the 57th Mas sachusetts all standing above 19 per cent A further examination of the rolls of 200 regiments in the War Department shows loss in killed ranging from 15 down to zo per cent These figures are cited toI show that out of an Army as large as that enlisted in the present war with Spain numbering about 350 havedcent in deaths from all causes while in the late civil war the average would be 14 per cent out of regimentsMr of phIdownthe civil war at 110070 of which 67058 were killed in action and 43012 died of wounds The num ber wounded but not mortally was 275175 and the number who i diedof disease was 359528 1The following facts showing incidental losses arc cited o give a clear idea of the real mortality of war The troops furnished by Vermont

seventytwo officers killed in action LOSSES FOR EACH DAY 1The civil war continued for fourfears in which 1882 battles 1fought being an average of more than one battle for each day of thee ntire war In 112 battles theredwere more than 500 killed on Ecivilfought two of which were of thehclass in which more than 500 killed on one side making at thot lowest estimate more than 1000 en killed in battle in each month beginningtoIn the late war with Spain if the ame fatalities had attended our soldiers in the field there must have een a loss equal to onefourth or to 50 per month or 720 But the reports of the War Depart i- nent show that less than 300 allr oCaptgeneral staff publishes some interesting figures as to the to losses of the combatants in the last great war that between France and Germany These statistics arc not uninteresting at this time France says he lost as many as 136000 men of whom some 8of ooo died of wounds received in battle 36000 by sickness accident land suicide etc and 20000 in prisons The statistician- ir estimates that the French who were wounded but survived num bcrcd 138000 those injured on the march or by accident 11421 those who recovered from illness 328 000 making a total of 477421 die rect sufferers The Germans killed numbered 40877 17255 died on the field and 21023 in the ambulances making 79155 in all The wounded who survived numbered 18543The 1st Minnesota Regiment at the battle of Gettysburg went into action with 262 officers and men of which 47 were killed and 168 wounded or a loss of 62 per cent Of the foregoing 17 officers were killed including the Colonel Lieu tenant Colonel Major and Adju tantoThe loist New York at the second battle of Bull Run went into action with 168 men ot which num ber 6 were killed 101 wounded 17 missing a

comparjng the above losses with those of any regiment in the recent war with Spain it is interesting to note some losses in European armies At the battle of Balaklava the Light Brigade took 673 officers and men into that charge They lost 113 killed and 134 wounded a total of 247 or 367 per cent The heaviest loss in the German army during the FrancoPrussian war was in the i6th Infantry 3d

wars WAR MUST HAVE VICTIMS But that all could be good soldiers is not possible Sickness disease and accident must have their victims In the late civilwar more than 250000 men were hon orably discharged for physical dis ability arising from wounds and disease Very many of these men never should have enlisted They were always a charge no matter how much they desired to be good soldiers There was the same ex perience in the present war Out of 200000 volunteers at least 10 000 of them were unfitted for the exposure and hardships of the camp Neither doctor quarter master nor comissary can change this but tho people have to learnt now as they also did in the civil war That some were sick and a few have died is true but as the comparisons cited show it was a drop to the ocean The answer to all these fancied wrongs and im agined cruelties is that it comes from a false conception of all the conditions incident to war Thoso who are now and have been finding fault would have war without battles camps without hospitals campaigns without marches andI victories without killed or wounded In the present war the ages ofI the soldiers were more favorable to the service than in the civil warI The men recruited in the war with Spain were limited from 20 to 35Ithe men recruited in the war ot the rebellion were from 15 to 60 Out of 1012273 recorded ages in the civil war 133475 were of the ago of 18 or under 46626 were of 25 years 16070 of 44 years By this it will be seen that a majority of the army of the civil war belonged to the ages most susceptible to disease and hardships namely under 20 and over 40 while in the present war the average age was nearly reachedIn present war with Spain a large portion of the men enlisted were from the cities and towns Whether this is favorable to their ealth and endurance may be a uestion It is contended however that men who reside in cities and towns are more thoroughly conversant with the laws of hygiene and have a better knowledge how o care for themselves than heharmer In the civil war 48 percent of the men enlisted were farm rs 24 per cent mechanics 16 pere ent laborers the remainder among the commercialand professional classes If these facts e taken into consideration theOin the present war ave fared better in the held than he soldier in the late war TRAINING AND DISCIPLINE The health of the army is

farm products brought in by the farmers and if a kick is made the farmer is boy cotted A union miner can get wurK from the committee by the payment of ono dollar but the farmer who makes a crop in the summer and works in the mints the winter must pay five dollars The other day an old miner almost helpless received for his days work one car of eighteen bushels The committee took six bushels for the checkweighman who certified that the old man dug the eighteen bushels rather a high tariff for the certificate gave six bushels in charity and permitted the old man to have the other six bushels with which to sup port himself and family This same committee orders the discharge of alt miners who decline to join the organization and receive the many benefits mentioned j aboveHow j the working men of the free non union mines of the county must pine for such committee Will Hall of the Oak bill Coal Company is now spending a good portion of bis timeout on the road soliciting orders for coal Richard

but such rumors are hard to believe when wa take consideration the fact that at that time there Is always a great demand for coal and and a strike by the miners at th it time would mean starvation anti death to jawoy I for lack of fuel to burn and cook with Miners generally select warm weather when they inaugurate a strike of large proportionsThe operators of Western Kentucky held an important meeting here last Sat urday The attendance was good and a general interchange of opinions as to the coal business took place The meeting was a harmonious one and a general good feeling prevailed through out and the only obstacle In the way of the Western Kentucky operator and miners alike doing well is the desire of some to sell coat during a dull season rngardtess of the cost of production Rumor says that professional man who has of late been reading the constitution and bylaws of the United Mine Workers became converted to the cause and was almost ready to enlist under their banner and begin the work of organizing the Hop king county miners but when be began to feel the pulse of the community in which be resldedbe found the sentiment so strong against such action that be at once renounced his former intentions and hastened to write a note of explanation denying In I full that be had ever held such views One of the socalled popular cries of reform is Down with trusts among which is what they term a coal trust Now if we understand the object of coal operators combining it is to adopt a fair scale of prices that coal can be sold at to see that the production is so restricted that said price can be upheld and by so doing the operator and coal dealer will be enabled to continue to pay the miner and other em- ployes good living wages A desire to es tablish a fair price for coal whereby the dealer and producer alike can live should not be considered contrary to right and justice and if this bo what Is termed trusts we say build them up all over the Stale Pana

likely to lose Rev S H Lovelace who has been so well beloved by his people on this work during the short year he has been their pastor Of course nothing can be con sidered as certain until the appointments arc announced in the body of Conference but this in all human probability will be the result Some speculation has been indulged in as to who will be Rev Lovelaces successor but this is mere guessing The preference of the congregation for one es pecial man to fill the vacancy if made cannot always be acted upon even if it be known Neither can it be guessed who will be put in charge of the Earl ingtonNebo circuit But it may be depended upon that he will be a young active and able man The officials of the church recog nizo that such a man is needed and deserved by these two

from the banks under his su pervision In this call he warns bankers against the temptation to make bad loans in the present ac cumulation of idle money Ho says When money is scarce bankers invariably insist upon good security but when money is plentiful and good loans scarce there is a disposition to be lax in scrutinizing se curities idle money being a temptation to reckless and speculative loaning In such time the banker should pray Lead us not Into temptation Heres richness indeed Formerly the Populist distress in Kan sas was the plaint that the bankers wouldnt lend now the grief is that they are too willing to lend and therefore they must be warned against taking bad security Times have changed in Kansas OUR GUARANTEE 10000 IN COLD We wilt pay One Hundred Dollars In Gold fof any

remain here is not known All of those not designated to muster out arc hoping to be ordered to Cuba in a few weeks to do garrison duty Indeed it was thought that Gen eral Sangers division as a whole would be so assigned and it may be yet Enough detached regi ments may be ordered here to leave 5000 troops here for the winter and take the division in tact to the island At any rate it looks like a

topical reference suggests tho tri umph of Christianity over various things life It is tho record of Christs visit Nazareth where Ho stood up in tho nagogue and read Isa lxi 1 and do ared that in Him

that preceding it have passed quickly and left behind them a remarkable record for deeds done and facts accomplished A year ago the day was overhanging with dark clouds of discontent The prospect for a revival of business was not marked and men were despondent Today there is a feeling in the air that labor and capital are rapidly approaching the time of their release from enforced idleness and that conditions have improved The crops were large a year ago and promise to be even larger this year The west has been busily employed in liquidating its indebtedness railway traffic has been enormous and the public mind is filled with the hope that stands for political equilibrium and conservatism The outlook is bright and cheering Labor day this year is a milestone along the highway of progress A new fu ture has opened for the country and for its labor and it will be a glorious future because wo arc essentially a laboring people It is not a future inviting to the demagogue and agitator It is a future calling for the wisdom of trained statesmanship and pa tience from the masses 9ur Rioted Jttiens All communIcatIons and matters of newt per taming to this column should be

labor day comes to emphasize the message that there is work to be done and that work and not war is the fortunate and timehonored policy of this land It is the business of this country to build up and not to tear down While work creates blesses and ennobles war destroys degrades and oppresses It is a mat ter that calls for congratulations that labor generally speaking has been at peace throughout this year No such strife as that of the sum mer of 1894 and no such scenes as those that occurred in the coal regions last year have marred the relations between capital and labor In the liftup that has come to all realms of human effort the past year labor has been more content edly and constantly employed Let us hope too that the growth of the spirit of arbitration is doing something to promote our under standings and preserve amicable relations between employer and employe Evansville Ind Sept ISDr- A M Owen one of the most prominent and wealthy physicians and part owner of the Evansville
