What Is the Troublep

To the ordinary observer, not disposed
to be too critical and anxious only to
see the unwholesome business of war
brought to a speedy and satisfactory
conclusion, there seems to be a sag IN
the clothes-lne To put it in another
way. and employ Uncle Johnny Roacn
favorite paraphrase OF Shakespeare,
there seems to be something dead up
the creek.
1t is impossible to say whether the
aforesaid remains are on the hill under
the pines or in the big red gully where
the briers grow. The atmosphere does
not go into details, and it would be
inyidious to organize an exploring eX-
petition. But there is trouble some
where, and pretty serious trouble. Or
ders are issued only to be rescinded,
troops are hauled away from campa
only to be hauled back again. and there
is a great marching and countermarch-
ing going on which betrays a weak head
or an infirm hand somewhere
During the last week this exhibition
of restless intirmity seems to have be
come spectacular. Railways have been
urged to have cars in readiness at a GER
tain hour for the transportation OF
troops The cars being ready the rail
way authorities have been politely told
that the cars were not needed. Regi
ments have been loaded on trains, only
to be unloaded again. They have been
transported from their camps only TO be
transported back. in short. there seems
to be SO much expensive indecision that
it is beginning to attract attention and
invite criticism.
If the trouble Is in the war depart
mcnt. tho president should apply very
prompt remedy. If it resides in fac
tion.5 at headquarters, these factions
should be at once suppressed.
The doubt and hesitation, the backing
and filling that mark the movements
Of troops in this country are very serl-
GUS matters, if they point to any lniirm
ity OF mind or will at Washington.

Rnttles with Tragic Results.

While the loss OF men sustained by
General Shafter in the recent severe
fight in the neiahb0rh0od Of Santiago
is heavy in itself considered. it is small
in comparison with the fatality OF some
of the battles of the late war between
the states.
The figures which We give in proof Of
this statement are taken from the Of
fetal records of the government, and
relate TO the union side only. At Get
tvsburg. out of $4,000 men engaged in
that battle on the union side, there
were 3,07O killed, 14497 wounded and
5.434 missing. making in the aggregate
3.00l men either killed, wounded or
missing. or nearly 80 per cent Of the
entire number of men engaged in the
battle
At spottsylvania. out of 10000 mon
engaged on the union side. there were
2725 killed, 1916 wounded and 2.25S
missing. making the total loss 1929
men. or nearly II per cent. In the bat
tie Of the Wilderness, where the union
forces numbered 10000 strong. there
were o.246 killed 12,O37 wounded and
1888 missing. making the total loss H.,
666 men, or IS per cent. At Antietam,
the union forces lost 2,1oS killed, 9,5+9
wounded and 753 missing out of $4,000
engaged. making the total number Of
men lost 12,410, or IS per cent.
At Charlottesville there were $4,000
troops engaged on the union side, and
the losses were ! sos killed. 9,762 wound
ed and 500 missing, making the total
17.2S7, or % per cent. AT Chickamau-
ga. out Of $4,000 troops engaged on the
union side, there were 1856 killed 9749
wounded and AHA missing, making the
total loss 1919 men, or nearly % per
cent.
Out Of only $4,000 men engaged on
the union side at Cold Harb0r there
were 1S44 killed SOFT wounded aud
1916 missing, making the total loss H.
1877 men, or SO per cent. At Fredericks-
burg there were 100000 men engaged on
the unfon side and the losses were .2S4
killed. $500 wounded and 1859 missing,
making the total 1868, or IS per cent.
The Atlanta constitution. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1885-19??, 1898-07-11

At Manassas, out of $4,000 men en-
gagged there were TAI killed. 8,452
wounded and 4, 263 missing, making the
total loss IA ,462 men, or AZ per cent.
At Shiloh there were 1880 men en-
gagged on the union side, out of which
number there were l,154 killed, S,40S
wounded and 2,SS5 missing, making the
total loss 1901, or % per cent. Out
of $4,000 men engaged on the union
side at Murfreesboro there were LOU
killed, 1902 wounded and 3.T17 missing,
making the total loss 1920, or 80 per
cent At Petersburg there were loo,ooo
men engaged on the union side, out OF
which number there were 1858 killed.
S,5l3 wounded and 1855 missing, max
ing the total loss II, 1856, or II per cent.
Other tragic engagements Of the late
war might be cited, but these are SUI
ficient to show that while the recent
fight around Santiago was severe
enough. it was rather mild in comparl-
son with some the engagements OF the
late war.
The Atlanta constitution. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1885-19??, 1898-07-11
will not enter into the

considerations will not enter into the
settlement at all.
There are several settlements possible.
The islands could be returned to Spain;
they could be coded to one of the other
powers; they could be sold at auction
to secure war indemnity; they could
be divided among the powers; they coulo
be left to the dubious republic which
Aguinaldo is said to have formed. AT
this time each and every one OF these
possible solutions may be described ns
preposterous. and they strike Mr.. Nor
man in that light. He concludes, there's
fore. that the only safe and sensible
course for America is the old and simple
one OF keeping what she has taken.
We have thus given very cursory
review OF Mr. Norman's letter. It's
importance rests in the fact that he is
an Englishman with very ardent Ameri-
can sympathies, and in the further fact
that the question he discusses is new
one in our experience. That the peo-
pie viii settle it in a satisfactory way
we have no doubt.

the Philippines from the cruel and cor
rupt rule of the Spaniard? Would it
not be more truthful to say, in the event
definite policy is developed, that this
now territory is acquired not for the
profit of this republic, but for the bene-
fit of the inhabitants of the islands, who
would thus be brought in touch with re-
publican institutions and be permitted to
enjoy the blessings Of free government?
1t will probably be found that great
many of the most intelligent and patri-
otto men of this country agree with the
Rev. DR.. Landrum, of Atlanta, that this
republic has a destiny of its own and
mission which it cannot eyade with
out Sinking some of the highest politi
cal duties and responsibilities that The
mind of man can conceive of. CCnsid
erations such as this take the whole
question of territorial acquisition out
Of the domain of party politics, and lift
it to q higher and a broader plane OF
discussion And it is here that our
public men must meet it and discuss
it if they hope to make any profound
or lasting impression on the American
mind
This aspect of the republics destiny
and mission has been slurred over ana
covered up by domestic contentious, the
result OF the late unhappy war, and
by the disgusting struggles for place
and power that have engaged the at
tention OF those whose duty 1t should
be to stand for all that our free gov
eminent implies But the moment seems
timely for the resurrection OF that
broader American policy which would
include all whom destiny might place
under our flag in the benchcont embrace
of free institutions and government ny
the people. Such we firmly believe IS
the mission of this republic. provid9n-
TALLY planted in the western world, ana
armed with every resource that heaven
and the ingenuity of man can supply.
We propose at some future time, TO
discuss this great prospect; but, at pres
ent the real question is not whether we
shall retain the Philippines, but how
we shall release our hold on them. Inc
story of the man who had the bear by
the tail is vivid. rather than an ap-
posite, Illustration Of what our situation
will be when terms OF peace come up
for discussion. It was somewhat IN
convenient for the man to retain his hold
on the bears tail. but to turn it loose
meant yi0met@ing worse than inUon-
YCnicnCe.
We may find ourselves In a condition
somewhat similar-or we may not.
Meanwhile it IS to be hoped that the
people will be favored with more sub
stanUal arguments against territorial
acquisition than are to I've found in such
ridiculous eptthets as conquest and

q position Of absolute safety
All these things, as we have pointed
ont before, were and are inevitable. In
other words, they belong to the order
of providence. and they have thrust up
on the people of the republic certain
responsibilities which, at present, they
cannot evade, and placed before them
questions which, though new to their
experience, they will have to solve III
the light and by the guidance Of the
free institutions which they have estao-
lished in this country.
In view of these things, especially IN
view of the fact that the questions IN
volved are altogether new to our expert
ence we have said, and repeat 1t mere
most emphatically that 1t is both I'M
wise and untimcly for democrats to take
any premature position Gas party mem
with respect to the settlement Of these
questions and issues. 1t is true they
will have to be settled by party action,
but there is time enough for parties to
discuss the situation when the people
know clearly all that is involved.
It is folly to say that We have Occu-
pied the Philippines as the result OF
war of conquest, or that their reten-
ton would make the war one of con-
quest, or that any Interpretation OF the
Monroe doctrine forbids us to shower
the benefits of democratic government
on the populations which providence,
in its mysterious workings, throws I'M
der Our care and protection. We DO
not say that the Philippines should be
retained; the doubt here, if it be
doubt can only be cleared away by dis
CUSTOM we only say that no simple,
feasible method Of dispOsing Of them
has as yet presented itself or been SuS-
gested from any quarter. We say, more
over, that if the islands are fetalne"

republic stands, not for imperial, bul
for democratic and republican policies
not for conquest, but for the acquisition
and bettcrmont of such TERRITORY as
Providence throws into our HANDS.
1t would be we'll for aiI-for demo
Gratis espocially-to look at events as
far as possible through the medium OF
JeffarsOn's teachings 70 seize and re-
tain territory that was already enjoying
the benefits Of free government would

fits on those who have been miS&"V-
erned for hundreds Of years would seem
to us to be the highest mission Of the
republic. Certainly if the republic
stands for anything it stands for it's
own institutions, and by reason Of its
power and influence, is pledged to en-
graft these institutions wherever they
may take root.

Acquisition from the Democratic
Standpoint.

Congressman Amos J. Cummings, or
New York is ardently in favor OF the pol
icy of acquisition, and ably supports his
position In the matter by reviewing the
additions to the national domain made
under democratic administrations.
First, he goes back to the administra-
ton of President jefferson, and shows
that the Louisiana purchase, embracing
I'LL 1874 square miles and extending
from the mouth Of the Mississippi river
to Puget sound. was made under that
admin stration and that previous TO the
acquisition Of this vast territory. tho
national domain. then spread out along
the Atlantic seaboard, comprised only
S27,S44 square miles.
Next, under the administration OF
President Monroe, he shows that the pen
insula Of Florida and the coast strip
of Mississippi and Alabama, embracing
SO, HGS square miles, we're acquired from
Spain.
Under the administration of President
Polk he shows that the republic Of Tex
as. embracing 37G. 1873 square miles. was
acquired by its admission into the fod-
eral union. and that by way Of indcmni-
ty FOR losses incurred in the war with
Mexico tine great western area OF the
continent. embracing 545,7S3 square
miles, was acquired also.
Next under the administration Of
President Pierce. he shows that the
United states acquired 1885 square
miles Of territory, known as the Gads-
den purchase.
So putting together tho various pieces
OF territory acquired hy the United
States under the democratic administra-
ti0ns, Congressman Cummings shows
that the aggregate thus acquired reaches
the enormous sum Of 2,12%,650 square
miles or neatly three times the origin
al area of the government.
Since the acquisition Of territory IN
the PAST has bean clearly in accord with
sound democratic principles. Cong ess-
man Cummings contends that such is
truo in tho present and insists that the
United states should hold Whatever ter
ritory it may acquire rs the outcome
Of the present war. He 9rgIos that
when a nation begins to lose its terri
tory decay then commences, AMI that
so long as it continues to acquire terri
tory rightfullv it must prosper. On
such grounds Congressman Cummings
strongly advocates the policy Of ac11t-
sition. He believes that the govern
ment should not even consider the prop
osltiOn to sell to other powers the terri
tory which 1T may acquire in the pres
out war.

The United States Navy.

According to data recently compiled
under the direction Of Secretary Long
there are now 1855 active officers en-
rolled in the navy. OF these. ISL are
line officers. 1G1 medical officers, III pay
officers. 209 engineers, a chaplains, II
professors, 81 constructors, Is civil en-
gineors, 1870 warrant officers, saiImak-
ers and mates and 2l6 cadets at the
academy
Of the ships composing the navy there
are eleven frst-class, eighteen second
class. f0rty-three third-class and six
fourth-class, with thirty-fye torpedo
boats, twelve tugs, SIX sailing vessels,
five receiving vessels, thirty-three mis-
cellaneous vessels and twelve uGseryice-
able vessels. Or the ships composing
the auxiliary navy there are thirty-siN

and Golfers. twenty-five tugs, fifteen
revenue cutters, four lighthouse ten
ders and two fish commission vessels.
AS the result Of the present war, the

ry among them, men whose names and
characters illuminate history, but these
races, taken as a whole, do not measure
up to the AnglO-SaXOn standard.
The savage slaughter Of women and
children and the murder of weak pas
sengers by the crew of the Bourgogne
could not have occurred on an Ameri-
can or English liner. The safety of
the women and children would have
been the first thought Of officers and
crew, and if the latter had shirked its
duty, the mutineers would have been
shot down by their officers
Altogether, the details OF the Bour-
gogne affair form the most horrible,
the most revolving chapter in modern
annals
