THE soldier boys atMldlietown are again
set to guessing what Will become Of them,
whether they will goto Mitdlctown, Pa,
or be disbanded We should think, rs
there Is going TO 10 nothing for the troops
to DO, the best thing the Government
can do, under tho circumstances, would
be to muster them out Of service. We arc
afraid the weeks Of illeness at Middleton
will not do the majority Of the soldier bows
any good after they return to civilians
life. 1t seems to us the LeIgh. Of folly to
send them to MiddIctown, Pa, to only 10
into camp, If Uncle Sam has no usu for
them, they had better be Gisbanded.
