NO MONOPOLY OF GLORY OR DANGER

The news that comes from Washing
ton that the Secretary of War has de-
cided to take soldiers for the invasion
of Cuba and Porto Rico from the South
Atlantic States will not be pleasant news
to the Southern people. Some weeks
ago General Wheeler, Of Alabama, made
the ridiculous suggestion that men from
the Gulf States should be selected to
invade Cuba because they would be bet
ter able to stand the climate than those
from higher ATTITUDES.
If the government expects to take only
men from the Gulf States, that exempts
North Carolinians as well as Vermonters
from service. The truth is that the resi-
dents of the Gulf States are no better
fitted by ''acclimization" to fight III Cuba
than men from other portions of the I'm
ion, and the suggestion that the govern
ment depend mainly upon the men in the
far South is as unfair is it is unwise
To adopt such discriminating policy
would be sucn a false step that we give
it no credence.
The South will furnish its quota of
troops and officers. They will not run
from danger. They will go wherever
the enemy is most strongly intrenched,
and will do their share of the fighting,
but they do not desire to monopolize all
the danger, all the exposure and all the
glory.
Men who live on the river bottoms of
Ohio and Indiana. or on the Jersey coast
are as wen acclimated as residents of
the South. 1t would be wrong to deny
them an equal chance to serve their
country on the sugar plantations aud
the cane-brakes of Cuba.

1T is GETTING UNENDURABLe.

They are having a red hot time in the
canvass for the nomination for Con
gress in the Atlanta district. Maj. f.
b. Stahlman, of Nashville, Tenn, a well
known railroad representative, has taken
Il hand to help re-nominate Mr.. Living
ston His opponent, Mr.. Fielder, charges
that railroad employees who had volun-
teered their support, have notified him
that they cannot support him after Maj.
Stahlman's visit to Atlanta
This incident would have no special
interest to North Carolina readers if
there were not railroad men, who, hay
ing voted for Mckinley, seek to dictate
the policy Of the Democratic party
Whatever prejudice exists against rail
roads would disappear il the railroad
magnates would attend to their business
and not try to control the politics of the
State.
The attempt to dominate policies and
nominations by railroad men is getting
uncomfortable, not only in Atlanta, but III
all the States. The remedy is not in
government ownership, but in a higher
citizenship that will be brave enough tc
resent dictation by those railroad kings
ming party in every district.
