From Tampa, Fla, Camp.
Tampa, Fla, July 1G, 1898.

Tampa, Fla, July 1G, 1898.
Editor THE TINES:
l will here try and give you some
news from this camp. | enlisted
June 18th last, in the 18th 1. s. In
fantry at Springfield, III. was sent
to Fort Mcpherson, Ga, with some
fifty others, and when we arrived at
the fort it was crowded and we slept
at night for a week in the open air
on the parade ground without blank
cts and were poorly fed. We We're
told that when we reached Tampa 1t
would be worse, but we We're sur
prised to find it 70 be untrue. At the
end of a week u lieutenant came
from Tampa and said we would have
to leave Fort Mcpherson or starve
and we left the next morning and
arrived next day, June 18th, at p.
III. IN Tampa.
We are encamped one and q half
miles from the city. There are i
good many other regiments encamp-
ed here; there are about 10000 sol
diers in and near Tampa. | thought
we would go at once to Cuba, but 1t
is being talked now that no more
soldiers will be sent there until fall,
and that we will soon be transferred
TO Washington, D. c., as it is getting
sickly here. There are severa cases
of yellow fever in the hospital now.
We are drilling hard every day.
Most of the regiments are recruits
and need a good deal of drilling to
get them in shape. The boys suffer
from the heat kere very much. am
the only one in the regiment from
South Carolina; the boys are all from
the North and can't stand the hot
weather. 1t is nothing to see man
fall and have to be carried to his
tent.
Uncle Sam paid Us off last Tuesday
and most of the boys are broke now.
There is a canteen in the regiment
where one can get all the beer he
wants, and all kinds OF games run
ming all day, and generally inside OF
twenty-four hours after pay day one
half of the boys are broke.

VI Ar.

The war continues to fill columns
Of interest in the newspapers, and
since the surrender of Santiago there
seems to be nothing doing at the
front. The flag OF the nation floats
over Santiago and our troops are in
full possession of the oity, but unless
peace IS soon declared we fear that
the beginning has only been had; if
the Spaniards hold out in their fool
hardness TO fight to the last ditch
the result will be more sacrifice of
life with no possible chance for the
Spanish arms. The Castillians are
doomed; they have no feet OF war
ships ond the soldiers they have in
Cuba are in a destitute condition,
with the source OF supply cut of.
Never was there 4 more hopeless
army, and for them to continue to
hold out is total lack Of humane In
stincts.
When the war began it was claimed
to be an act of humanity on the part
Of our government to free Cuba from
the expressions of Spain. On the
floors of Congress it was vehemently
denied there was any intention to
reach out for other lands. Now what
have we? Already Hawaii has been
annexed, the PHILIPPINE Islands, Porto
Rico, San Juan and other Spanish
possessions will be ours, and before
long we expect to see Congress man
ufacturing new States ont of the new
acquired territory, yet Caba was only
to be made free upon humane
grounds.
In our humble judgment Uncle
Sam has become intoxicated with bis
victories, and unless something turns
up the war will be prolonged into the
next national campaign, for the ben
eft of the politicians now in power
and prohting by the hostilities. Ev-
cry move made so far has been d.
rected in such manner that the au-
thorities at Washington get the credit
and what is that for, if not to make
political capital for the Republican
party: This war has made Republi-
can success q certainty and as far as
the Democracy is concerned it may
as well not hold convention for the
next election and let the Republicans
take it by default.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
It's stages, and that is catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being ? constitutional disease, requires q
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces Of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
Ct the disease, and giving the patient
strength by bailding up the constitution
and assisting nature il doing its work.
The proprie;ors have so much faith IN Its
curative powers that they offer one hundred
dollars for any case that it fails TO cure.

THE MILITIA GOT MORE THAN IT'S
DESERTS.

pEStRIS.
Governor Ellerbe has been severely
criticised by his enemies for what
thew call ignoring the militia, when
the truth is that instead Of ignoring
the militia, he made moro appoint
ments from the militia than was act
ually their due. II the First Regl-
ment now at Chickamauga Lieut.. Wy
att Aiken, at the request OF Editor
Wilson OF the Press and Banner OF
Abbeville, prepared from the records
a table which shows the regiment to
be composed Of I'LL men; out CT
this number $50 are volunteers and
did not belong to the militia and Isl
we're members OF the State militia.
The record shows that only 8 volun-
teers received commissions and q
militiamen were commissioned. Tins
record further shows that Governor
Ellerbe, in appointing field officers,
was exceedingly partial to the militia
and get politicians are nagging at his
heels about not giving the militia
more. Did the militia of this State
respond? In every town over the
State the Governors call was treated
very much like it was treated here;
the militia were otherwise engaged
and the ranks had to be filed up
from the plow fields from among
those who did not belong to the MI
itia. It is true, great many OF the
militia boys were thrown out on the
examination, but take the rosters OF
every company which responded and
it will be seen that a majority did not
belong to the State militia.
The Governor did not ignore the
militia in making his appointments
for high positions, but he could not
give places to all the applicants and
the disappointed are kicking. He
was partial to the militia was very
natural hecause he wanted the troops
oficered with men who bad some
knowledge Of military tactics and 1t
was for this reason that the militia
men received more commissions than
those who volunteered without being
members of the militia.
Recently the Governor appointed
a colonel, ieutenant-colonel and a
major for the Second Regiment and
who did he appoint? Col. Jones, one
of the best known militiamen in the
State; Major Henry Thompson was
promoted to heutenant-colonelcy
and Capt. Eaves was appointed major.
The two last named were militiamen.
Thompson, the former captain Of the
famous Darlington Guards, and who
is so much of a soldier that when
other companies were throwing down
their arms he obeyed Governor TIL
mans orders, and although the scene
of action was at his home, he and his
company did full duty all through
the deplorable Darlington trouble.
Eaves went to Columbia with com
pany and being unable to get his full
quota in time, rather than impede
the progress of the State in making
up her share, magnanimously gave
way and permitted his mer to join
another company that the regiment
might be completed.
In these last appointments as well
as the FIRST, every one admits the
Governor made good selections, but
the disappointed must be revenged
and they are doing their utmost to
punish Ellerbe in the election.

THE BATTLE is ON.
The Fal Of Santiago May be Re-
ported at any Hour
Our Forces
Now Overlook the City

How serious a business war is
we begin to comprehend only
when we read the list of killed
and wounded. The reports of the
first engagement on the advance
toward Santiago made everybody
feel very serious Saturday, though
the affair appears to have been
successful, and it is only a sus-
picion that the volunteer troopers
bought the success at a needless
price. There can be no fighting
without danger, no victory with
out loss.
We need to reconcile our minds
to this now, for it is apparent
that our army in Cuba is pushing
forward steadily and there is
quite likely to be repeated if not
continuous fighting until the end
be reached. General Shafter has
already advanced his base from
Baiquiri to Juragua, the point
occupied by his advance on the
first day, while troops were at
once pushed forward to occupy
the position from which the en-
envy was driven in the fight of the
cavalry.
It will be e e that this first af-
fair was part of the forward
movement, which Saturday dis
patches show to have been
promptly followed up, SO that as
the lines draw closer the decisive
battle is hourly more imminent.
