If we are going to depend upon volun-
teer soldiers in the future as we have in
the past we shall have to make provis-
ion for feeding them very much
better. 1t doubtless is possible
to demonstrate scientifically that
the present ration contains all the ell
ements needed to nourish the body and
sustain the strength. but the American
people have been so long unused to such
kinds of food that their stomachs rebel
against 1t, and food unassimilated ia no
food at all. The truth is that the great
mass of our people live too well to make
1t easy to convert them into soldiers, for
the soldiers stomach, according to exist
ing regulations, must be capable of as
similating hard tack and "sowbelly, I"
day in and day out, and stomsohs accus.
toned to more delicate and palatable
kinds of food can no more do this than
hands unaccustomed to manual labor can
stand contact with hard and rough SUBJ
stances. The bill Of fare of the ordinary
man is far more varied, and there are
many more luxuries upon it than there
were thirty yChrS aBo, anu AZ 40 AAo" oo "'A
unlikely that the greater contrast now be-
tween the living of q man at home and
that of a soldier in the army is part OF
the reason why the complaint about food
has been much greater in this war than
in the war of the Rebellion. The only
alternative of lettering the soldiers ra-
ton is to train men to endure it, ana
that can be done only by enlisting men
for long periods-in short by having a
regular army. And to this alternative
we shall doubtless have to resort
1t is easy enough to see that one
| lesson of the recent war is that
in the future less reliance must be placed
on the volunteer than has been the case
in the past. Our people are nsed now to
too many comforts. have become too re-
fined in their mode of living to be able to
adapt themselves readily to the conditions
of army camp life. If we are going to
become military power we have got to
rely upon a body of men trained to en-
dure the hardships, privations and the
many revolving features Of camp life. In

1t is clear enough that the Democrats
in the Middle and Western states are pre-
pairing to make thu treatment of the
soldiers in the Southern camps the
principal issue Of the fall elections. The
way to meet and effectually settle that
issue is for the administration to take
prompt and energetic measures to FIX the
responsibility for any neglect or mis-
management that may have occurred aud
see that the guilty parties are punished.
1t is all very well to stand by men when
under fire provided there Is no good
reason for the firing, but to protect man
who doesn't deserve protection is the
worst possible policy.

Gov. Black OF New York. seems in
,clihed to stick and make fight for
nomination in the New York convention
notwithstanding the advice of Mr.. Platt
to the contrary. He doesn't like the idea
-of retiring under fire. The chances Of his
making successful fight, however, are
very SLIM The tide is running too
strongly in favor Of Roosevelt for him or
ANYBODY else to check it.
The Portland daily press., 1898-09-07

The volunteers will not have suffered
entirely in vain if their sufferings have
served to check the war spirit which has
been rife in this country for some years
past. Before the recent war began the
mass of the people acted as II war was a
sort of remedial agent. 1t was prescribed
as cure for poor business 1t was urged
by many on the ground that it would
open up opportunities for employment.
Not few declared that it was necessary
to have war once in awhile to rouse
the patriotism Of the people. People who
pointed out that war was certain to bring
widespread suffering and that its influence
was corrupting and demon alizing were
sneered as weak and timid, or accused OF
being ready to sacrifice the country q
honor for the almighty dollar. The Yer y
journals that today are painting in the
most lurid colors the sufferings and
privations of the soldiers were the ones
that were tiercest to plunge the country
into the condition which always has and
always will be productive OF suffering and
priyatien, and after the war began they
were constantly demanding that the
troops in midsummer be sent to Havana
where they would have died like sheep.
To be sure they are trying to make it ap-
pear that this suffering and privation
need not have occurred, but everybody
knows that while some of 1t may have
heen due to ineffioiency the most of 1t
was unavoidable. When again there is
talk of war, unless it be SO far in the
future that the recollection of this one
will have entirely faded out, it will be
solemn and serious, aud we venture to
say that the sword will not be drawn I'M
til all the resources Of diplomacy have
been exhausted.

Secretary Alger says he will be drawn
into no controversy relative to the con-

there. There have been occasions when
Mr.. Alger did not seem particularly

1t is not SO very strange as 1t might ap-
pear at first blush that while our
troops have been overwhelmed by sickness
in the Southern camps. Sir Herbert
Kitchener's soldiers have penetrated
into the Soudan with but short sick
roll. The greater part of Sir Herbert &
troops are Egyptians, thoroughly used
to the climate and conditions that they
have encountered, while the English and
Indian troops are also thoroughly sea-
soned. They are all regulars, accustomed
to the hardships of camp life and able
to eat with relish the food furnished
them. The officers, too, are soldiers of
long experience, understanding all the
sanitary precautions that are necessary
and able to enforce them. They have
moved no faster than railroad was
built by which they were able to main
tain at all times quick communication
with their base. Sir Herbert's army has
had the benefit of long training, of per-
feet discipline, of officers who understood
every detail of their business Our sold
iers were raw recruits, for the most part
unused to torrid climate. unused to
the food that was provided, not taking
kindly to strict discipline and Differed
in large part by men who had had no ex-
perience. With these vastly different
conditions it Is not strange that vastly
"a !erent results followed.

The task that Lord Wolseley attempt
ed and failed to finish some years
ago Sir Herbert Kitchener has &C.
compIished, and that too without
serious sacrifice Of life. Lord
WoIsely found the difficulties of marching
to Khartoum when Chinese Gordon was
imprisoned there too great to be overcome
and turned back leaving Gordon to his
fate which proved to be death. Sir Her
bert Kitchener has overcome them all,
and the British flag has been raised lover
Khartoum. Sir Herbert was confronted
by force huge in numbers and of fero-
cious bravery, but it was an undisciplined
force i'll supplied with the implements OF
modern warfare, and was easily putsto
flight by his superior strategy and his
Maxim guns. Probably the Mahdi's power
is now permanently crushed and the re.
gion which he has terrorized will be open
to the advance of civilization. Not
the least beneficial result of the capture
of Khartoum will be the breaking up Of
the slave traffic of which it was the head
quarters.

cumstances. He expressed his appreciation
of the honor intended, but insisted that

has flied about every office in the club
since he advocated and helped in its organ

pressed regret at his determination not to
continue as president.
