The Troons ,lust Resnond.

Savannah has seen little of the troops
ing the present conflict. since her two bat
talions and battery of artillery departed
in prompt response to their country's call
To-day, and the next two or three days
are expected to bring within her gates.
two and perhaps three, regiments of in
fantry Southern regiments, one of them
recruited almost wholly within the state,
and in part from this city, on their way
not to the scene of battle but to police a
conquered district from which the con-
quering army must return because of sick
ness and disease
1t is one of the duties of a soldier who
enhsts in his counry's service to respond
promptly 70 any call that may be made
upon him without questioning the wisdom
of the command given, and the command
has been given to the Third and Fifth
United States Volunteer Regiments to go
to Santiago. Humanitarian motives I'M
doubtedly prompted Senators Bacon and
Gordon when they wired to WASHINGTON
urging the authorities to countermand the
orders for the Third United States Vol
unteer Regiment to go 10 Santiago. The
Third is composed principally of Geor-
gians and many of fts officers and men
are from prominent families of this state.
The senators shrank, therefore. from the
idea that these men must go to police a
district from which an army has been
recalled because its ranks have been
weakened by prevalent maladies.
But there is another side TO the question.
A soldier cannot always so where he wants
to go nor where his friends and relatives
would have him go Troops must be kent
in and around Santiago, and these regi-
monts which We're so enormously called
immune regiments are looked to for this
duty. 1t appears that in their organization
1t was contemplated that they should be
assigned TO some such duty as this. Col.
Ray of the Third Regiment, who knows
and understands the duties of a soldier,
has protested AGAINST any revocation of
orders to his command and says that his
men all Join him in the protest 1t is tho
duty OF himself and his men to obey or
ders without questioning their wisdom or
proprioty, and this seems to be undoubted-
ly his purpose. There are many other reei
ments which might have been assigned TO
this duty but with regard 10 any of them
these same objections might have been
raised. The United States Volunteer regi-
mems went into the army on the same
footing with the state volunteers. and as
the others, must of course expect to re-
spond TO whatever duty is assigned them
1t is doubtful if any protest against this
service win be heard from any member of
the Georgia regiment.
Savannah Will welcome these soldiers
within her gates, and with their DEPART
ure on their far away mission, one fraught
perhaps with danger and hardship, win bid
them Godspeed, and viii recognize in each
as great hero as were those who went
before to face the Mauser bullets Of the
Spauiards

The Parole was Not Good.

Maj. George f. Barnes relates an inter-
esting story anent Gen. Joe Wheeler. now
in Cuba. During the late war Maj. Barnes
was major in the Federal army, and
Gen. Wheeler was lieutenant general in
the Confederate service.
At the surrender of Athens, says the New
York sun. Lieut.. Gen. Wheeler was in
the forces that surrendered. and desired
to get over and Join some other Confeder-
ale forces. He and several of his staff
wrote out paroles and started toward the
other camp. Maj. Barnes had his scouts
out, and they met Wheeler and his men
in the road and halted them. Wheeler
said he was parOled and produced a parole
in the name of Lieut. Sharpe
The sergeant in charge of the scoutin Q.
party read the papers and said:
These papers are not right"
You seem to doubt my veracitv." said
Wheeler, feigning great indignation.
Well" replied the sergeant, 'T han
pened TO be your prisoner two weeks ago
Gen. Wheeler, and know you. You treated
me pretty nice, too, and I'm going 10
treat you nice You'll have to go with
me to headquarters"
They brought him and his STAFF before
me" said Maj Barnes, in relating the
incident and Wheeler laughed heartily,
at his failure. He was a small man. with
red hair and big freckles on his face. and
you could see the daredevil in him from
his chin to his scalp. 1 afterward wrote

His Opportunity.

one of them was discouraged, says the
Chicago Post The other one was not.
1t frequently happens that the prosperous
man is unable to understand why it is
that the unfortunate one is lacking in
cheerfulness.
1T VIII come out all right In time"
urged the prosperous one. There's no
use being downhearted. You know, it is
said that a business opportunity comes to
everyone at least once in his life. All
that is necessary is 10 watch out so that
you may grasp it when It does come. Pos
slbly you may have yours at this very
minute and not know It,"
The discouraged ones face lighted up
Immediately
Il never thought about watching for
the opportunity" he said. = guess per
haps you're right. may have chance
right now"
why, Of course" returned the prosper
Gus one cheerfully.
You have reminded me of letter I
got this very morning" went on the I'M
fortunate one.
"Goodr exclaimed the other
"Of course you know how hard up I
have been" explained the discouraged
one.
"Of course"
''Tramping around trying to get any
kind of job"
Yes
Couldn't even get to see the people
who employ men in most cases"
Il know just how it is"
Haven't had enough money to pay
street car fare most of the time"
Il don't doubt it at all"
We'll, just you keep all that in mind
and then listen to this letter that I re-
ceived this morning.
Thereupon the discouraged one read the
following:
Dear Sir-No doubt you have personal
acquaintance among men in the street
railway business in your city. I would be
pleased if you would find it convenient
to bring the matter of our car to their
attention, and on the first ten cars sold
by you we will allow you $50 on each
car, and on each car additional SIS If
you see your way clear to give this mat
ter your attention, have no doubt the re-
suits will be very satisfactory.
Then the discouraged one looked at the
cheerful one and the cheerful one looked
at the discouraged one, but nothing was
said. There is frequently a mockery in
fate that beats all other known mocI1eries.
The idea of the friends of a man out of
a job buying street cars was one that did
not seem to call for any comment.

A short War win big Results.

\
The war with Spain has come to an
end much sooner than it was generally
expected il would. There was never any
doubt i'm the minds Of well informed peo-
pie in this country, or in Europe. out
side. of Spain, that our demand ia regard
TO cuba would have 20 be compiled with,
but il was not expected that Spain would
be forced to sue for peace in so short a
time.
our superiority in wealth and popula-
ton is of course immense, but when the
war began Spain as far as her actual
fighting force was concerned, was supe-
rior 20 us. in che number and class of
warships her navy was pretty nearly
equal to ours, and she had a well drilled
army equipped with Nauser rifles, OF
more than 10000 men, while we had an
army Of only about 1850 men. 1t was
expected that it would take us six
months, at least, to put a force in the
field capable Of making Roadway against
the trained and superbly armed soldiers
Of Spain We had no doubt that our navy
would render a good account of Itself
whenever and wherever 1t should meet
the squadrons of Spain.
Only a little more than three months
have elapsed since the war was begun,
and yet our terms of peace have been
accepted. Spain has lost Cuba and Porto
Rico, and if we had insisted upon the pos
session of all of the Philippines she would
have been compelled to yield. Her navy,
which was her pride, has been practically
destroyed The warships which she has
left are not Of great value. Nearly 5000
Of her best soldiers in Cuba are our
prisoners.
The naval victories which we won at
Manila and Santiago were so great as to
entitie them to a place among the great
est in the naval history of the world.
Indeed, there was never before a naval
victory so complete, so fruitful of results
ana with so little loss to the victor, as
those which we won in our war with
Spain.
And the victory of our army at Santiago
was scarcely less notable. 1t was the
final blow that compelled Spain to sue for
peace There was never greater valor
shown by any troops than that shown by
ours, both regulars and volunteers, on the
hills around Santiago
1t is a source of satisfaction that the
war is ended The glory we have won
on sea and land is sufficient to satisfy
our national pride. We have gained i'm
menseiy in territory-territory which will
contribute TO our wealth and greatness
and we have convinced Europe that we
lro The greatest Power in the world. We
are not going to adopt foreign policy
offensive to other nations, and we feel
quite sure that no nation will adopt a
no steps will be taken by Europe to-
wards changing the map of the world
without first finding out what our wishes
in the matter are

Now IL National FavOrite.
From the Philadelphia Press (Rep).

Five years ago Georgia peach resem-
bled a gaily painted marble and its flavor
was more forbidding than its shape. To-
day il is one of the most sought after
fruits in the market, showing what cult
Walton viii do. The size of the crop this
year can be estimated from the fact that
about 1900 carloads have been sent away
and enough more 10 fill hundreds of cars
have been left on the fields from the lack
of facilities for shipping them The return
to the statN IN money viii be nearly 81
600, 900. Annual crops like this cannot be ex-
pected but il is calculated that good
crop once in three years pays the grower.
There is another side to the growing of
peaches than the material one. There is
no article of food more necessary to health
than sound, cheap abundant fruit and
there IS no more healthful fruit than the
peach. TIE extension of the fruit producing
area then is g. matter less of local than Of
national Importance.
