The Return of the Rough Riders.

Va /HEN the four Montana troops
wv Of rough riders come home
there will be a rouslng well
come II IS 20 be hoped that all will
return by the Oregon Short Line. for
then before separating for their homes
they could unite IN a parade in Butte,
and Butte can be depended upon to do
the right thing. Such a programme,
however. is hardly possible because Of
the additional expense in bringing the
two Eastern Montana troops somewhat
out OF their way. In any event each of
the four Montana cities thai had the
honor 20 end a troop Of rough riders
to the war will give its boys a welcome
as hearty and sincere as II no doubt
Will be noisy n spectacular.
1t has been nearly tour months since
the troops were mustered in. They
have been months that have tried the
mems souls. 1t has been the fortune
OF war that they should not be brought
face TO face with the enemy and given
opportunity to feel the excitement OF
conflict, TO demonstrate their bravery.
10 win lasting glory for valor In the
field. Their lot II has been to face dan
gers which they were powerless to com
bat, 20 endure the trials and privations
Of army life in time OF war without a
chance TO share in the brightest re-
wards of military action. They have
faced disease and death under circum-
stances calling for the exercise OF as
much fortitude as Is required on the
field OF battle. There is not one among
them who would not have gladly ex-
changed places with the men at the
front. who would not have hailed with
Joy an order to engage in such a gal
liant charge as that at San Juan.
From all accounts the Montana men
at Camp Thomas have suffered and
suffered terribly. Really they have
seen some OF the hardest service Of the
war. They have done their full duty
and have earned the warmest welcome
that a grateful people can give. Their
return will lift a heavy burden from
hearts that for days and weeks have
been torn with fear and anxiety lest
disease should accomplish what bullets
did not DO. God speed their coming.
God bring our sick and emaclated
boys safely home TO the gentle minis
try Of loving hearts and eager hands.

on the consciences of the men who
