LET THE BOYS COME HOME

From the Gadsden Times-News. We regret to see that some of the off, cers of the First Alabama regiment are so anxious to retain their positions and sal
 aries that they are doing all in their power
 to keep the privates in the service whether they wish to remain not. This action of the officers is contemptible and ridicu-
 lous. The war is over and these brave soldiers who so readily quit lucrative posi- tions to fight for the honor of their beloved America when their services were needed, should now be mustered out and allowed i to return home to more lucrative jobs and i P their loved ones.
 Fully 90 per cent. of the First Alabama
 want to come home and we say, let them come. Our boys do not want to police Cuba or the Philippines They want to ! fight for America and now peace is de- clared let them come home.
 ' By all means let us have the soldier boys back in their homes. Their families 1eed them. Their mothers have missed them
 sorely these summer days and their sisters
 have shed for them many tear. Business
 is openig for the fall season and the cotton patch wants the farmers son. The draft
 upon so many homes and so many interests <, f6r young men was only excusable when . the country was at war. To retain them
 in enforced exile now is inexcusable. Let
 the boys come home.

AN INTELLIGENT PATRIOT

The Rev. Philip s. Moxom, after Prof. Nor
 toms Speech at Ashfield.
 I come from an English family of war riors. At 13 was the grim edge of war myself; at 15 cavalrymen. The soldier is in my nervous system. Day after day l have asked if all of this war has been a mistake It has been said, i've are a mercenary nation" When the issue came, the response was not from followers of gold; it was from colleges, stores and homes-a valiant host of chivalrous, un- selfish, splendid fellows, who said; Here are we willing all, to serve the flag"
 With all this tragedy, all the blunders, all that savers of crime, there is yet some thing heroic, exalting, inspiring to the high est degree that all these, supposed to be sordid and mercantile, gave themselves so freely, so gladly, and there is something inexpressibly lovely in it all, especially at Fl Caney. I see in it all revelations of character and of humanity that bode well for the future of the country.
 It has brought consciousness of unity north, south, and all English-speaking peoples. It discloses a new consciousness of nervous organism, vitally responsive anywhere to every touch. I don't believe there Is any danger of imperialism. I look to the future with solicltude, solemnity question, but not fear. God Is, firmly be- lieve, driving the chariot.

THE CHARS PEACE PROPOSITION
the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
 At the very moment when war between Russia and Great Britain seems imminent the czar of Russia proposes an internation- al conference for the purpose of securing real and lasting peace among the powers, and the termination of the progressive in crease in armaments. The note from Count Muravieff, representing the czar, is CO., gent argument in favor of peace. It pie lures truly and forcibly the evils resulting from excessive ornaments, and the dan gers>which may result therefrom. Coming from the czar of Russia, it will command the attention of the other powers. Ger many, France, Great Britain, the United States and other lesser nations cannot af- ford to refuse to enter into such con ference. It may not lead at once to a ra- tional disarmament and an agreement to refer all matters in dispute to arbitration, but 1t will pave the way for this desirable result. The jealousies and doubts of each other, nourished through centuries of war fare, cannot be dissipated in a day. The proposal to disarm will be viewed with more or less suspicion; but no one could make it with a better grace than the czar, who has appeared to be getting ready to greatly extend his dominion in Asia, and !. who is powerful enough to command the respect of his strongest rival.
 It is doubtful whether our children's s children will see a complete realization of the peace programme; but a mighty stride has been taken towards its realization with
 the conversion of the czar to the belief that by international agreement some other means of settling differences can be found than war, for which such costly prepara- E tion must be made and maintained by all . nations.

 Governor Black was seen tonight py an Associated Press representative and was asked s,s to the conditions as he fouhd them in the camps of the New York regl- ments, as well as those at division nos pitals. = Governor Black said that there appeared to be ia perfect hydrophobia" among news naners over the condition of soldiers; that the press brlistled with such phrases as "hollow-eyed" and starving" in articles descriptive of the soldiers. He gave it as his opinion that the matter was exaggerated manufactured in newspaper officesr and the outcome the result of Journalistic knavery."
 When assured that his views would be printed verbatim, and not withheld be- cause they failed to concur with the pres ent enewspaper craze" his eXcelency gave the following interview:
 Not Half Bad
 My impression" said Governor Black, s'of the camp of the New York troops at Chickamauga park is not half as bad as I had expected it would be. The unfavora-
 
 has, beyond doubt, been very greatly ex- aggerated by the press.
 The division hospital, in which the sick soldiers of the Ninth New York infantry are quartered. is certainly in a very bad condition. The present state of the hospital ought never to have been permitted to ex- ist and should be corrected at once.
 ''I think that the troops at Chickamauga park should have been moved long before any sickness broke out in the ranks.
 ''The Sternberg hospital is in excellent condition. I do not see that 1t is being made any better. It is admirable both in plan and management. As to the New York troops at Chickamauga, I mean to take as many home to New York as can. I shall also endeavor to have as many mustered out as possible, and those that I cannot have mustered out I will employ every endeavor to have moved to northern camps at the earliest possible date.
 'orho hospitals in the Eighth and Four teenth New York regiments are much bet ter in every particular than the one in which the sick of the Ninth New York in- fantry are quartered."

GEN. BLANCO'S BIRTHDAY

Havana, August 3O.-9 D. m.-General Pando, chief of staff to General Blanco, who lately returned from a voyage to Mex ico and to Central and South America, where he went on a secret mission to arouse sympathy for Spain, will return to Madrid tomorrow. He maintains strict re- serve as to the results of his mission.
 Tomorrow will be General Blanco' s birthday. He celebrated it in advance by a gift of $500 to be used in the purchase of relief for distribution among the local charities. His generosity is much ap- plauded
 The papers are greatly agitated as to the disposition of .the remains of Columbus, and it is understood that the Duke of Yer agua, the only living descendant of the discoverer of America, will request the privilege of removing them from the Ha- vana cathedral and carrying them to Spain, there to deposit them with the re- mains of other illustrious Spaniards. The general impression is that the remains are not to be included in the surrender.
 Recent advices from Candelvia report a state of dreadful distress. the result of levers and scarcity of food caused by the blockade. Within stones throw of the town the insurgent general, Pedro Diaz, IS encamped with a thousand men.
 Chief La Hoz is encamped just outside San Crstobal, whose inhabitants take the mems supplies.
 Several insurgent leaders in the province of Pinar del Rio have issued circulars guar anteeing law and order, and promising safety to all who will return to their fields and farms. The Cubans in that province have set an example which win surely be followed elsewhere.
 Havana is perfectlyl quiet and business is resuming. The theaters are filled nightly, and the cafes and restaurants are doing an excellent business. Silver is now $1.60.
 To an outsider, the city presents holi- day appearance. Behind the scenes, how eyer, there is considerable want, though this is not Haunted abroad as the Cuban character Is one of pride, which hides the dark and only shows the bright side of life. The weather continues fine.
 To-day the council of secretaries resolved in view of the custom house regulations, not to allow exemption from duty for the supplies brought the Comal in charge of Captain Mel. Neither has he any other legal recourse to secure exemption.
 The Spanish colonial authorities are will ing to take charge of the supplies and dis tribute them themselves, paying duties on account of the government at the Havana custom house.
 Among the vessels to arrive today were the tugs George w. Childs from Key West with passengers; the Spanish bark Pru- dente, from Trinidad, with provisions; the West Indian, from Cartegena, Spain, with cattle and the Catania, from Mexico, with passengers and general cargo.
