BUCKY O'NEILL.
How He Came by His Nick
 ut.me.

The true story of his nickname as somo few of Bucky O'Neill frie nds of earlier days know, is as follows as pub.i, he'd in the Herald:-
 "Mr. O'Neill came to Phoenix in T9 and while engaged in newspaper work boarded at q place where among others he tel graph operator of the old government line and the only line in the city at that time took his neal. O'Neill was g great hand himself to give nickDames and in epiris of fun comme need calling the operator "Doctor." This rather in- censed the operator and ono day in an emphatic manner he told O'Neill that he knew 8 worthless O.d cOdger in the east by the name of "Buck' and that if he didn't stop teasing him he would nsme him after old buck. O'Neill continued and the operator was true to his word. O'Neill's friends took up the Fraiice as means oi worrying him but as "Buck" was hardly euphon,ous enough for their purpose they added tho last syllable. It filled the bill and the title stayed with him till the end and while no one knows It is quite probable that he would not have changed it if he couli as i, VI as 6 constant reminder of old days whrn friendships were formed that moulded the man and his after carecr.'

A PRESSING NEED.

The United States will need some of the
volunteer regiments in Cuba for long Pc
Rod to insure the results of the most re-
markable war in modern history. 1t must
have them or all will be lost that has been
gained, since nothing will be gained if,
after driving the Spaniards out of the
island, we leave it to anarchy. The govern
ments of the world did not protest against
our declared purpose to interfere in Cuba
because we gave pledge to establish stable
and popular government on the island We
must keep our pledge because we cannot
leave Cuba to anarchy. The troops will be
needed about Nov. la period too early to
fill up the regular army for that purpose,
even if the President had the power to do
so. The President is as anxious as any one
in the country to have all the volunteers
mustered out. He will not keep more vol
unteers in the service than are needed, or
day longer than is necessary to insure the
results of the war. Inde ed. the volunteers
are required to stay to complete the war.
This is fact that it vculd be wise to rec
ognize
There is reason to believe that tt ere
would be little or no demand for immediate
muster-out if it we're rot for anxious
friends at home who besiege congressman,
state officers and send petitions to the Pres
ident. AS an example, take the Fourteenth
Pennsylvania. now at Camp Meade. No or
der has been given for its muster out but
friends OF the n en- are getting up a long pc
tition to the President, end the Pittsburg
Dispatch is urging then on. The men are
so wrought up that, when some general Off
Ger was at camp recently, they shouted,
Send us hon e!' This is INSTRUMENTATION.
1t may be added that the interference of
some state executives to have regiments
mustered out is mischievous. Governor
Holcomb. of Nebrc ska, is in Washington to
demand the muster-out of Colonel Bryans
regiment. He is reported as saying that he
will not insist on muster out if the regi-
ment can be sent North or to Nebraska.
Governors have no authority, and, conse-
quently, their insistence is mischievous-
subversive of discipline.
The volunteers that will be retained will
be more needed during the next six months
than they have been at any period of the
war. Therefore, to remain and render the
government service when it IS needed is as
patriotic an act as it would be to remain if
it were necessary to fight
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1898-09-23

The Bryan regiment has given the War
service under the second call, under which
Nebraskas portion was a few troops of
cavalry and battery. Governor Holbrook
pleaded for a regiment for Mr. Bryan, and
his friends set up the cry that Bryan was
not going to be permitted to serve his coun-
try by Republican President Ignoring
States which had prior claims Nebraska
was permitted to raise a regiment for
Colonel Bryan. At first the War Depart
ment proposed to send the Bryan regiment
to Manila. Again Colonel Bryan's friends
set up a complaint to the effect that the ad-
ministration was going to Danish him to
Keep him from taking part in politics. Then
the administration ascertained where
Colonel Bryan's friends desired to have the
regiment sent and found that he desired to
be attached to General Lees corps in Flori-
da that he might see service in Cuba In
advance of other regiments, ready before
that of Colonel Bryan's he was sent to the
place he wished. Now his friends are howl
ing to have the Bryan regiment mustered
out. and Colonel Bryan is said to be in
Washington to press the matter. He is
weary of service; he does not wish to assist
in establishing peace and good government
in Cuba.
The administration has shown weakness
in the case of Colonel Bryan from first to
last, and deserves to be criticised But
what a howl there would have been if
others had not been set aside to give him
a regiment

Lieutenant Colonel Dudley, of the judge
advocate generals department, has returned
to Washington and is now engaged in the
preparation of his report upon the condi-
lions under which the Spanish prisoners on

Colonel Dudley has already collected suffi-
cient testimony to make clear the fact that
the firing upon the Spaniards was neces-
sary and justifable action.

been spared to furnish everything desired,
and that the talk Of red tape was all bosh."
Colonel Leonard. of the Twelfth New
York, attacked DIR. Huidekoper and called
him veterinary surgeon and an incom-
petent. To this and general complaint re-
garding the medical department the surgeon
general, who was present replied:
officers who did not report what was need
ed and draw on the proper authorities for
it should be held accountable He had COM
piled with every demand made on him in
Washington, and of course not being in the
field he did not know of the needs from
personal observations.
All of the remarks at the conference go to
show that in the quartermaster' depart
ment the acquisitions for articles not usually
called for. or even the requests for
them, were not forwarded through
the regular channels to Washington, but
were thrown out like the acquisitions for
water boilers, by the corps quartermaster
or some subordinate The same failure
seems to have existed in the medical de-
partment in addition to the failure of that
system of division hospitals which did away
with the regimental hospital. This system
was the creation of surgeons who had been
long in the army.
Neither the President nor the secretary
of war could know of these evils, and, as
they selected few of the officers, cannot be
held personally responsible.

THE LEXINGTON CONFERENCE.

The accounts of the conference of the Sec
rotary of war and the officers at Lexington,
KY, published by the New York Sun and
the New York Times are very different from
a dispatch which was sent to two or three
papers elsewhere. General Sanger, for in
stance, did not say to the secretary of war
your chief bottle washer at Chickamauga, .
as reported in the sensational dispatch. Be-
ing an officer of the regular army, it is not
probable that he said anything of the kind
When the secretary asked for frank opin-
ions the Times says:
The first to offer a response was General
Sanger, who said he believed in the division
hospital, but he also thought there ought to
be more surgeons left with the regiments
or special men should be employed for the
hospitals He said there was not enough
medical assistance left in the regiments and
that the men left in charge were not sufti-
GENTLY Well posted to know what was
needed. He thought the great trouble lay
with the surgeon generals and quartermas-
ter's departments in honoring requisitions
General Sanger. according to the two dis
patches, made no further remarks. Other
dispatches cause General Sanger to make an
attack upon Dr. Hudekoper, and another
makes General Wiley responsible, but the
who followed General Sanger. is one of the
civilians who were made brigadier generals
AS reported to the New York Sun he said:
General Wiley was of General Sanger's
opinion. and in giving instances of the re-
suit of taking away all the medical corps of
the regiments he stirred up hornets nest
He said that the men were drilled TO death
at Chickamauga and caught the pink eye
lying around in the dirt and filth. The
stripping of the regiments of their hospital
corps so crippled them that when man fell
In the drill he was forced to lie for hours
unattended in the scorching sun. He said
there were no stretchers or litter carriers
and the poor fellows were left without aid.
There We're not enough ambulances. Some
body was responsible for this, he said. He
thought ii was the quartermasters depart
ment. He said he had made acquisitions on
Quartermaster Lee at Chckamauga for boil
ers in which to boil the water that the men
drank. The acquisitions were not honored.
lie was finally told that the government had
no water boilers, and he wanted to know
whose fault ii was.
General Wiley did not turn to the quar-
termaster general. as the sensational dis
patch asserts. and accuse him of neglect.
but that officer. General Ludington. being
present. replied that he had honored every
requisition made on him; that no money had
