Colonel Russelrs Appeal.


enforced. The chapter entitled ain Aid of the
Civil Authorities" Is splendid one. which should
be read by every citizen. The concluding sec
lion is as follows:
Mobs are towards; they only gain courage as they
find that those whose duty is to suppress are them
selves towards. 01icers who called out to sup
press riot should realize that IL must be done in
the very beginning: allow no tumultuous gathering
permit delay; 1t is better TO take two lives
at outset than to suffer the mob take the lives
of many. Order them in few stern and resolute
words diSperse and go to their omeS II these be
not Obeyed and it becomes necessary to clear the
street do it boldly and resolutely Troops should
never be ordered out with rifles IN their hands and
ball cartridges in their boxes unless II is intended
to use them should it become necessary The com
mandng officer should not harangue a mob, nor per-
init his forces TO hold any conversation with them
the utmost silence should be observed by the
troops that all instructions and orders may be
distinctly heard and understood. The commanding
officer should remember that he represents the
majesty of the law and that his orders must be
strictly obeyed not only by his troops, but by all
citizens who, for the time being, have arrayed
themselves against the constituted authorities, and
by all those, who, being law-abIding, have allowed
themselves through curiosity, to be associated with
such. Victorious or temporized with, the mobber
finds n thousand vena wretches at his back; beaten
or energetically handled he is deserted by his
whilOm friends. The fact that there are in society
many professional agitators, so many anarchists
socialists, thieves and cutthroats, who. with the In
stinct of the vulture will seek the field OF prey or,
with the instinct of rat, desert the sinking ship
renders It absolutely necessary that the mob shall
not be tred with TO the extent of even permitting
them TO seem to be victorious for Single day This
is essential, not only rule OF temporary advan-
tage but ncaicuabe for the lesson it teaches. The
ri0ter whom false deicacy and a mistaken sympa-
thy had dealt lenenty with will acquire a taste for
the business, which ne would scarcely retained
had he received his deserts.
THE FIELD OF TRIBE HILL.
By the way, the field where the bloOdless Bat
tie OF Tiipe Hi was fought in August 1885,
should be III n nice state for the encampment OF
the Second Brigade, which, thanks awluly to
General Cutting, viii be the last to pitch its tents
there. The parade ground viii he tramped
down well enough with the Sixth Infantry Reg-
nlent OF the Third Brigade, under Colonel Eu-
gene Lehe. from Stockton, Fresno, Modesto and
VIsaia (six companies. previously encamped
there from July 9th 10 18Th; the First Artillery
from Sacramento and Nevada City from the Sd
TO the IL tn OF August, and then finally the reg-
ments OF the Second Brigade in and about San
Francisco from August 10Th to the Oath. The
two Iegmental encampments will be small pOta-
toes however compared TO that OF the brigade.

NAPA CITY IN THE SOUP.
Napa City is peculiarly unfortunate. 1t has
been doomed to another disappointment with
regard 10 the encampment III its midst OF the
First Artillery Regiment. The committee OF the
Napa Guards called on the majority of the busl-
ness men OF Town on Monday, Win the view OF
ascertaining what they could be depended upon
to contribute in case the regiment should hold
its encampment there. The committee did not
make a thorough canvass, but went far enough
10 feel itself warranted In making the following
proposition: Napa will furnish the grounds,
wafer, lights, straw and wood and $50 III coin.
This proposition was telegraphed 10 Colonel
Guthrie on Monday evening. the offer having
Ia hNT mi FIu1 mr.
that the latter guaranteed $3.50 cash, when Napa
promised $3.50. But this difference OF 500 1t
was claimed by the Napa committee would be
more than balanced In the amount OF railroad
fare that the regiment would have saved by CO.
ing to Napa and estimated at S4O0. The tele-
graph on Tuesday morning announced what the
answer was, Mayor Bowman Of Santa Cruz hav
ing instead on Monday evening received tele-
gram from Colonel j. w. Guthrie accepting the
invitation OF Santa Cruz Tor the First Artillery 10
camp in that city from August Sd to the 11th.
Considering the above the expression accept
Ing the Invitation" makes one smile.
MORE DIsCoRD IN THE SEVENTH.
Company A OF the Seyenth--one of the boom
regiments-is sowing the seed OF discord. The
seed sprOuled at The company meeting on Friday
evening when First Lieutenant Hartley moved
to have Private Guyott dIshonorably discharged
from the company. No reason was given, but
there seemed to be large number of the boys of
the same mind. Colonel Spleman was present
and instructed his son, Captain Spileman, not TO
permit such proceedings. A motion was then
maze TO appoint guard OF i've men 10 escort
Private Guyott from the hail. Again Colonel
SpilemaD iuterfered and prevented the proposed
action. The company was divided IN two fac
tons, one siding with the officers and larger
which seemed TO think that Its rights as n "a.
tional Guardsmen had been tiampled upon
When the meeting broke Up the handwriting on
the wall indicated that the trouble was not vel
over. Ii was not long until those who felt them
selves agereved came together and called 9
secret meeting, at which 4 vote was taken upon
the expulsion OF Guyott aud carried.
NO HOPE IN THAT QUARTER.
The chances OF eXCOioue William Ii. II. Rus
sell OF tie Seventh Infantry TO have set aside
The court martial findings cashiering him from
the service OF the n. u. c. seems, as 1t has beef
put. ito be growing smaller by degrees anC
beautifully less" After The approval by Major
General Dlmond of the findings an appeal wa:
forwarded 10 Governor Waterman. This wa.
returned 10 Los Angeles without action, as 1
II ad not been forwarded to Sacramento through
the regular channels Of military correspondence
Then the appeal was given fresh start II
accordance with conventional military etiquette
This appeal has again been returned 10 head
quarters OF the First Brigade with the indorse

Tugs were made public, which IS the legal limta
ti0n established within which appeals may bt
taken from the Judgment of court-inartials i'll the
Stale of California.
DRILL IN OAKLAND.
Colonel Fairbanks was surprised on Monday
evening at the battalion drill OF companies A
and Of The Fifth at Oakland TO have the banC
Of twenty pieces report for duty so that after ths
same dress parade was had. From the loca
account OF the drill, II appears that the Colone
the Second Artillery when, after dress parade
"a new addition to the ceremony was praeIlced,'
which is described as follows:
According to revised tactics, after the dismissal
of the parade the Sergeant-m takes command
of the battalion and marches it in review of the
officers, who then have chance TO note the con

first sergeants, who march the companies to thelr
the presence of about 1000 who gathered
Mt the sound of the martial strains and completely
blocked travel on the Sidewalk
WITH EYES ON THE TROPHY.
Colonel Dickinson VIII please cut out this from
the Oakland Tribune and paste II IN his hat;
The new commanding officer has fine voice and
knows how to drill his men, He has started in to
MAKE the new Fifth formidable competitor for
Iaureis with the First Regiment OF San Francisco
The Fifth is evidently after that brigade
trophy but as regards the "fine voice" there has
been only one man who would compare TO the
Colonel. He was the regimental color bearer,
some years ago, aud when for devlltry he would
initiate the commands In camp, the Colonel never
WAS sure whether John ii. Dickinson had spoken
or not, or whetnef the souhu was only q prank OF
the echo.

tuIther changes on his staff:
