ed to return to the lines until the job was
completed. Some of the struggling Cubans
who hung about the army proved a nuis-

soldiers bad name,
Mr.. Hodgdon agrees with Mrs. Ward aud
many other writers that there was criminal
negligence by some one in authority in re-
gard to forwarding supplies and medical
stores He found the hospital doctors skill
full and faithful men, and their assistants in
all grades did nobly, but they were hamper
ed by lack OF supplies. When they left Tam
pa there were several carloads OF ambuances
there, and after the war was over the sol
diers who returned that way found them still
on the cars. AS a result of this many a
poor soldier was obliged to walk back from
the front to the hospital, some distance of
T. miles, suffering from severe wounds and
weakened from loss of blood. Hodgdon,
himself, in one day carried back out of i'm
mediate danger seven men who We're 50 bad
ly wounded they could not walk.
Speaking of the men who composed the
Rough Riders, Mr. Hodgdon said: "Col.
Roosevelt is one of natures nobeIneu, and
every man in the regiment Will bear me out
in the statement" The men We're picked
from the various localities and during their
entire service not member of the regiment
was ever in the guard house. While there
was perfect discipline, there was, except
when duty required perfect equality. Col.
Roosevelt mingled on social and friendly
terms with ali his men, and often sat with
them around the campfire or lay in the
trenches sharing with them the lot of the
Cross headquarters, when the boys We're ON

cured two sacks of dried apples which he
brought to the camp across the back of his
horse.
Mr.. Hodgdon drew vivid picture of the
sufferings of the non comhatants. and said
that Mrs. Ward has, in her letters to The
Journal. stated the case impartialy, wildly
and accurately. He has met Mrs. Ward
and has read her letters with interest. He
considers her one of the most reliable and
vivid writer's who has dealt with Cuban af-
fairs during the war.
He also gave many interesting accounts of
battles and incidents, which have been pub
lished from time to time as they occurred
cribes, so vivid are his descriptions.

Unpalatable Suggestion IN a Pamphlet For
General Distribution.
ST. LOUIS. Oct. 20,-Officials of the
various express companies doing bust
ness in ST. Louis are much worried over
pamphlet which has just been issued
by the National Association of Traffic
Commissioners:in reference to the pay
ment of the war stamp tax on express
receipts, and containing suggestions for
the extension of the parcel posts in the
United States. The work is destined to
bring about a general movement all
over the country to have the interstate
commerce law changed so as to place
express companies under the jurisdlc-
ton of the interstate commerce commits
SION aud to regulate express companies
IN other ways.
What They Most Object To.
What the express companies object to
mostly isa suggestion to improve and
extend the parcel post system in the
United States. The pamphlet has not
only been mailed to all commercial or
CARNATIONS. but has also been sent to
members of the United States senate
and house of representatives in con-
gress, with an appeal to have the neces-
sary legislation enacted.
The National Association Of Traffic
Commissioners will hold their annual
meeting at Washington in December.
and will make a hard fight to have their
suggestion adopted by congress.
The extension of the parcel post sys-
tenn as proposed would deprive the ex-
press companies of nearly half of their
revenue, as they. could not compete with
the postal rates, and they will make a
determined fight to prevent the loss of
such large part of their business.

Spect construed as an eVTIonC5~ or per-
sonal unpopularity, buts was solely
owing to one of those unavoidable po..
litical complications which so frequently
occur in localities where there is but
slight opposition to the dominant
party. Mr.. Lovely's mental and
moral endowments peculiarly fit
HIM for high judicial duties.
In addition to having the reputation
of being one of the best trained law.
yers in the state he is gentleman of

Judge Calvin S. Brown is descended
from judicial family. His uncle and:
father both sat upon the district bench
in Minnesota, and were both we'll
known to and highly respected by the
ley more than forty years ago. Judge
Brown is stalwart representative
of the state. having been born.
reared and educated here, and, having
wide knowledge of the history of
our legal and judicial Development
from his earliest manhood. When he
takes his seat upon the bench of the
highest judicial tribunal of the state.
it will soon be understood that new
and. potent force has been. added to
this distinguished body.
Mr.. Charles L. Lewis Isl probably the
least known OF the three Republican
candidate for the Supremescourt He
is resident of Duluth, and while the
people of Minnesota generally may
have no wide knowledge of his capac.
ity, it is only just to- say that
by the bar of the whole state he is both
known and respected. During a quar-.
ter of century of wide and varied
practice in the Minnesota courts he has
achieved most enviable reputation
with his leg,l brethren. In the course
of his practlce his professional services
have brought him into connection with
many of the most important cases
which have passed through the courts
of the state during his residence here,
and his reputation is one Of which any
citizen might be proud. Mr.. Lewis
| was elected to the district bench in St.
Louis county. later resigning that posi-.
ton to resume practice at the bar.
In ability, protest. onal standing

entire sympathy with the we'll
being of the people of the

before the people by any political party
in Minnesota ever ranked higher than
few Of them as high as 1.-THE nom.
