August 81 the JOURNAL editorlally
reviewed Judge Burnett's decision In
the Darcy Boise contested election
case, and two parties have called at
this Office and taken serious exception
to our editorial, charging that it was
unfair and pointed out what they al
lege are serious mistatements Of fact,
We shall not defend against the gen
eral charge that our editorial treat.
ment OF that judgeship contest, and
the tallysheet frauds In this county
connected Herewith, has been unfair.
We are perfectly willing to reprint
the editorial complained Of, and all
other editorials on the subject, and
leave the public TO judge. But the
parties complain especially of the
first paragraph of our editorial Of
August 81 as not correct:
The decision OF .the circuit court
goes against the contestant in the
darcy Boise judgeship election case
but IL will probably be appealed TO
the supreme court as a matter OF form
which will carry the case over the
October term of the circuit court and
grand jury, when the criminal side OF
the alleged tall ysheet frauds are to be
investigated.
The people do not understand the
technicalities OF the legal profession
and the above language is plain,
blunt statement OF what will proba'
bly, be done. We had no desire to
offend the counsel for the contestant
or impugn his sincerity 10 conducting
the contest against Mr.. Boise. But

contest never had any ground 10

The popular Judgment IN regard
! to Alger and Algerism in the war de
partment has been make up, and will
not be changed on the testimony of
shoulder-strapped benefciaries OF
what is currently regarded as vici-
Gus and unpatriotic system of mis-
management.-Phila Record:
In fact, enough defects are shown
in his department to warrant the
presidents forcing him to retire; and
it would be poetic Justice to replace
him with Col. Roosevelt -Martha's
Vineyard Herald.
Colonel Roosevelt and the other Of
ficers in and about Santiago knew
that if they and their men were 10 get
out of Cuba alive, they must force
Alger's hand; and the publication Of
their startling revelations, by letting
the public know the facts, did force
the incompetent war secretary's hand.
But there is no excuse for Alger' S
conduct. Hartford Times.
The wretched bungling which has
marked every phase Of the Santiago
campaign in the medical and subsis
tcnce departments is bad enough,
HeaYen knows, in itself, but when the
secretary of war deliberately pro
ceeds, for reasons best known to him
self, to whitewash the department he
not only betrays u callous indiiferen ce

The business end OF the war depart
ment has been nOticeably deficient
from the start, Not single camp

reception of our soldiers, and Mon
tauk furnishes no exception. The
conditions there, reported in our
news columns today, are Il blistering
disgrace to the government. That
sick and wounded soldiers should be
left without food or shelter in a
camp within hundred miles Of New
York, selected many days ago, is a
elimination of incapacty that calls
for instant and vigorous action by
the president.-New York World.
The American people do not
demand a scape-gOat, but they do

The Register believes that pettine

plants and criticisms made during

lster (Rep.)
Much of these stories Of the YOlun-
teer soldiers being a 0used is due to a
campaign of mud-slinging which the
opponents Of the administration have
begun to dim the luster of the Repub-
licans in the splendid war which has
been waged. provo Erquirer (Rep.)
[AbOve are the only two defenders
Of Secretary Alger in all the Journals s
exchanges. The following are all
great an6iniuential papers, most of
them Republican, Ed. j.
"There is, Of course, no computing
how many millions OF money or how
many hundreds of lives have been
wasted and sacrificed by this incom-
petant secretary of war. 1t is certain
that there is but one opinion about
him among those officers OF the
United States army who are not
among his own favorites, and that is
that he is the worst secretary of war
within memoIy.-New YorksTimes.
Notwithstanding Montaigne's say
ing that 1.-THE most manifest sign Of
wisdom is continued cheerfulness, -
IL would seem that in view Of the
outra yes perpetrated by Alger upon
the heroes of Santiago, the time has
at last arrived in which to throw
this continued cheerfulness to the
winds. There is no tightening flash
of Indignation too soaring for Alger
and his system OF. political misman-
agement.-OIegonian.
The explanations of the bureau
cratic officials explain nothing. They
blandly declare that "they have re-
ceived no complaints from the
camps" No, they received none,
The dead died too soon to complain,
The dying and the fever stricken we're
and are too weak to complain, We
have never heard of "A more senseless
or of a more heartless defense than
the one which regards the si-
lence OF dead and dying sufferers as
an acquttal or an endorsement of the
actions which made them its vic
tins. Brooklyn Eagle.
Secretary Alger's statement regard
ing the criticisms made OF the ineffi
cheney of the war department and un-
necessary suffering OF our troops is
weak and silly.-Tacoma Ledger.
The appointments made to the
stan positions In the army have, in
numerous instances, been tlagnnt
and braZen examples of the influence
OF politics; orders issued tC officers
haYe been actuated by the letters and
Visits OF influential people; camps
have been chosen or abandoned with
more consideration for the political
effect than a0y sanitary conditions;
troops have been designated for SER
vice at the front not always because
they were efficient or well equipped.
but because they could get the assign.
ment and because the senators of
their states wanted it."--Army and
