The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-25

When the war commenced, no State and
no country on the globe, perhaps. pos
sessed so many men, in proportion to the
population, capable of bearing arms. Not
only were they "able-bodied, but great
majority were Injured to and skilled in the
use of arms.
The discharged soldiers of the Mexican
War came here in great numb ers, and in
1851 they were still young. The popula-
ton of California was composed Of young
and vigorous men. Many thousands of
them had been members of the "crack"
regiments of militia and National Guard
at the East. Many were we'll drilled, and
all could pick up a musket and "fall in"
An instance of this came to my notice
during the squatter troubles at Sacra-
mento in 1850. A military organization of
squatters deied the authorities. The
Mayor, the Sheriff and the Assessor were
killed. There was great alarm. A requi-
sition was made upon the United States
officers for arms and equipments, and a
nun Der OF cases came from the arsenal at
Benicia. A call for men to use them was
issued, and without the least selection LIS
men, the first who offered themselves,
handed out. The two ranks had already
been formed and the command assumed
by lieutenant Of the regulars who came
with the arms.
The manual of the time was Scott's. The
first command was executed with celebrity
and precision, to the establishment OF the
drlllmaster and ourselves. Sergeants and
corporals were selected, posts established,
and that night the city was as well
guarded as it could have been had battal
ion of regulars been irf possession. "The
squatter war" was over
Before the call by the President for 75,-
600 troops to suppress the rebellion, thou
sands of patriotic men of this State had
enrolled themselves in companies and
regiments ready for the expected call.
When it came it was not for Californians
to go East where there was fighting and
glory to be had; instead they were to gar
rison posts among the Indians and else
where, relieving the regulars who were to
be sent to the front. This the enthusiastic
Californian declined doing. But on every
battlefield of the war were many hundreds
of these Californians of early days. They
returned to their native States singly and
IN squads; almost every Eastern regiment
had some of them.
A regiment of returned Californians was
raised in New York City by Senator E. D.
Baker, assisted by Roderick Mathewson,
formerly city official of San Francisco
BY some arrangement never properly I'M
derstood Mathewson became colonel in
stead of Baker.

1t was in many of the great battles OF The
war; constantly recruited, but Away,
known as the California regiment. Col
onel Mathewson was killed at the battle Of
Cheat Mountain or Champion Gap.
Senator Baker, when succeeded by Ma.
thewson, went to Philadelphia. and raised
brigade, which be commanded. These
regiments were largely composed of Cali
tornians, and many were killed with theil
commander, General Baker, at the unfor.
tunate battle of Balls Bluff.
Not all the Californa-raised troops-and
there was quite an army-were retained to
garrison the posts on this coast, and after
the safety of the State from the plottings OF
the Confederate sympathizers and Pacific
republic" agitators was assured, a strong
force under General Carlton 1.-THE Carlton
column) was sent into Arizona and New
Mexico. On the eastern borders they met
and drove back the Confederates, and in
threatening Texas made a heavy diversion
In favor of Union troops operating in the
Southwest.
OF the thousands of enthusiastic patriots
VINO inst rushed to arms with the eX-
pectancy of being sent East and to the
front, number Of State militia regiments
were formed. They were uniformed and
equipped by the State, and by private SUBJ
scription. No finer material for the pur-
pose was ever enlisted. They became we'll

largely instrumental in the prevention OF
civil war in California, If not, as we claim,
keeping this Union State.
This was well understood at Washing
ton when the proffer of service as
volunteers to go East was made. The
authorities were well informed as to the
situation of affairs here, said Secretary
Stanton subsequently in speaking Of the
matter. Take from population as
small as California. and as equally divided
on this question, 5000 men, who leave posi-
lions paying $3.50 a month, TO go for d

sentiment OF the communities they leave"
In reply to lament of Californian
that circumstances that could not be over

great soldier of the Union army remarked
You did your duty and were OF just as
much service to your country in keeping
down rebellion in your State as if you had
been fighting in the Army of the Potomac.

the Government. and what diversion in
favor of the Confederacy had war in your

months to place troops and ships on the

of the Golden West. Yet believe that in
that spirit, that exaggerated alteration Of
California, lies the very hope of California
art. Who believes in California art? The
native son. Who buys the works of Cali
fornia artists? The native son. 1 said,
exaggerated alteration" but do not be-
lieve it is exaggerated or can be exag-
gerated. California is a chosen land.
This State is destined to be the Italy of
America-all, I believe, that Italy ever
was to the world of art. The art of the
northern civilization will eventually find
its highest expression on these peaceful
shores-not tomorrow, or next week, but
eventually, and there are not lacking signs
that tell OF it. Some day San Francisco
will become great art center, and stu
dents from far off will journey to this City
as they now journey to Rome. True, the
galleries of the old masters may still be in
Rome, but California has wealth of pic
turesqueness and inspiration to offer that
the artists of the future will be quicker to
appreciate than are the artists of TODAY.
1t is in such climate and amid such sur
roundings as are only to be found in Cali
fornia that the worlds revival in painting,
sculpture, poetry and romance will event
ualiy find its highest expression.
This is prophecy not original with
myself, but l wish to indorse it, because
believe that 1t is true. What will hasten
the day more than anything else that we
can do is to foster that belief in Califor-
MAS greatness of which the Native Sons
OF the Golden West seem to have the
monopoly to-day. Their faith in the land of
their nativity is of the kind that will move
mountains. hope to live to see it grow
to such depth and breadth and earnest
ness that the people OF California will seek
their art treasures first at home. And if
they seek-mnch less diligent ly than they
need to seek abroad, Tor here the field is
narrower, the painters fewer, the artists
IN all branches less in mum ber-and if they
seek they will find.

When the professor came into the club

with sticking plaster, and there was gen

was the matter.

that he is an alumnus of one of the lead

Heidelberg afterward and spent several

Pacific and we required them all where
they WERE"
The only organized volunteer troop tina;
got into the famous battles of the war go
ing from California first a company, Their
battalion, went into the service of, anc
counted in, the levy from Massachusetts,
that State having furnished the funds fol
transportation and other expenses. This
little body Of soldiers was in many OF the
great battles of the war. and their good
conduct and bravery were never questioned
but ever applauded by those who kept
track OF their movements.
Speaking Of the regrets of some of us
VINO had IN our youth a partial military
education and did not leave this coast fol-
the front, it was nothing to the lamen-
tatlon, chagrin and terrible disappoint-
ment OF our old friend and drillmaster,
Major Lyman Bissell OF the Ninth In
fantry Regulars. He was stationed with
his company IN 1861 at San Juan Island
then on our northwestern frontier. This
island, claimed by Great Britain and by
the United States, was held in joint occu-
patton by American and British troops
pending the Settlement of the dispute.
Bissell was in command of the Americans.
The balance of his regiment had gone
East. He applied repeatedly, begging the
Government to be relieved, and that he
might be sent to the front. There had
been trouble at the island between our
troops and the British under former
American officers regime.
AT the time it was believed by many
that the British rather desired cause for
quarrel. Bissell was just the man for
the occasion. He was "level-headed" and
would not bring on difficulty as might
some younger and hot-headed commander,
therefore Bissell was kept at San Jaun
Island.
After the War of the Rebellion was over
he was relieved and came to San Francisco
nearly a broken hearted man. He had
seen subalterns of his regiment become
brigadier and major generals in the regu-
lar army. The people were sounding the
praises of one who had left him a second
lieutenant. There were tears in his eyes
as he told his story. This faithful and gal
liant officer, born fighter, was rewarded
by his Government. He was made lieu
tenant-colonei by brevet. He resigned
from the army and returning to his native
city was made Chief OF Police. which po-
sition he held until his death.

For more years than any one can
remember an elm tree of extraordi-
nary size has stood in the village of
New Milford. Pa. 1t was there when
the first settlers arrived, and rs the
woods were cleared away it was left
untouched by the woodman's axe
Its trunk was nearly four feet in
diameter and branches cast their
shade Cor more than 100 feet around
When the railroad was built through
New Milford. more than forty wears
ago, the track ran close TO the old
tree, aed the station was erected al
most in its shade. Its great height
and widespread branches offered
favorable mark for storm and temp
est, but while other trees were up
rooted from time to time this grand
old tree defied the elements. 1t
seemed as sound as it was when the
pioneers first saw it, and wa famous
| landmark. One night last week as
the locomotive of west-bOund
freight train was opposite it the
great elm fell and crushed the en-
cine. Not breath OF air was STIR
ring at the time. The engineer,
Timothy Conner. ard his fireman
were buried in the wreck OF the
locomotive and several freight cars
were piled up and mingled with the
ruins of tree and engine. Both the
engineer and fireman were taken
from the wreck and 1t was found
chat neither had received as much
as scratch. Fred Bell, brakeman
jumped from his ear and was badly
hurt. There IS nothing revealed in
