No repssssassa the soldiers sas pwowiing
through tbs ssrssts Ill night, after some
aasksd bssssriss.,' We made no such
representation. II wss nes shs soldiers

K.n knew shas those persons rsfeFred 70
by us, we're NOS soldiers, anahence ere say
he ia not soldier-au honorable, patrs.
otie, high-minded soldisr-he may wear
the soldiers garb-if be does, ne wears
is fax the saamsy az aesea In prsapsst, not
for love Of coantEy oct out OF patriot
ism. Thars. ars Hlany such soldiers in
Council BIuffs- -men who put their names
down upon the list, With the vain hope
that they would get 10 be Captain, Ma.
jor, Quarter master, gommisaaFy, or
ges sone other paying ofhcs; who, having
found that their nose was out Of jcint-that
there is no big ofhOe for them, refuse 70
take tbs oath and 10 into quarters. The
country is fall of such patriots. If they
really believe the war ought to be prose-
cuted, why don't they take the oath and
ge into quarters? e r
We have BEEN soldier, and We know
that soldiers like to see their officers IN
camp with them-they like to see the silk
glove patriots take hold Of the naskes
and do their dHty---they have bat little
respect for the man Of money, who puts
his name down npon the roll, takes bus
chance for good oliOe, sad failing, dis
covers ell at once, that be cannot SO into
camp on account Of physical liability"
Such are the harpiea thai are continually
hArping against the Bssle-sses of kid
glove patriots, who have not the MANY
courage TO face the foe, and whose patri'
otism ali dries up when the zaesey fails
II any man thinks tho war right, jus
and the only way By which the union ID &
be saved, ii is NOS only his privilege bal
his aaly " enlist and strive to save th'
Union, in the only way By which in hi
opinion, it eaa be preserved. We admire
the consistency Of men who take such
course but We despise the low dang hyp'
ocrise, who hurrahs fer the war-who sag
ssgo on boys" but will not 80 himself
Such men may rare about the BsssIs Il
their hearts content. Their game i
abeat played ont. The soldiers begin Il
see through their schemes, and whsn the.
find that they have been called sogsthe
for no other purpose than 10 aid in filinl
the pockets OF few political bankraPss
they will curse the men who, 70 aid thsi
schemes of plumber, have i6daced them t
leavs their families and homes, to sngag
in q war Of sections, which viii end Il
bringing ruin upon mAny poor msn, ali
money into the pockets Of few leaders
| The covert threat in the communica
ton, we utterly disregard. We know sha
DO true hearted, undetermined, soldier
eaa be Induced TO attempt to pat it int
execution. We also know that the kid
glove patriots hereabouts, dare NOT IN
derEake it. Soldiers hare noblerwer
to perform, than to step In and settle u
personal difficulties of such c0srardtg uE
starts as those ghs have been threatenin
the BH9le ofhes.
We are aware that the cOsoaTdIy tchelE
who hare been talking about MOB foFs
against Us, hope thai tbs soldiers viii c:
pouse their cause; but We trust that
soldier will beoome the tool OF men va
! dare not make al atteEnps to coerce
themselves. .--m .-
Whatever we may say, and We sha
always say what We think best, about q
soldiers, viii not be said with the intel
TO injare any one Of tham, for We kno
that they hare hard row TO hoe amen
the sharks that always hang about u
. oamp--men who, undar the pretsass
patriotism, steal into places that they ma
steal from tine soldiers. .a
We will remark that In these remark
: We have no reference 10 The officers Of q
companies of tins Alb Rsglmens-who vi
bus one exception, we believe to be ges
! tlsmen, and the exception might be ga
slelnnn If he only knew Aoae TO be ONE
: We rsfex 10 outside SHARKS, who ara sti
= hanging about tbs camp, and who are 81
/; have been, living on the war, and sssiyia
TO get mp demonstration against 4
{ .Bugls. The soldiers and their rights '
{ are always ready to defaad. The shAz
Il we dspise, and will defend ourself II
. our rights against their attacks.
