AS 1T WAS IN '65,
A March OF 800 Miles Before the Luxury
OF Box Cars Was Ohtainablc.

There are thousands of old soldiers
lett who remember how, after four
years of fighting and marching unprece-
dented in the worlds history. they re-
JnIced when they had the privilege of
coming home In an open box cars.
Zen johnson surrendered and the
war closed, Sherman's army, which was
composed of men from the West, and
IN which were manv Illinois regiments,
were southwest of Raleigh in the in
terror of North Carolina. Were there
Pullman cars to transport them home?
No. Were there even passenger cars
of the most dIapiiated sort? No, Not
even these. But the box cars were
clean and nice, the sympathetic ones
will suggest. Maybe they were, but
they were not there to take the men
home. Their route lay nearly 800 miles
north to Washington, and every foot of
that, through rain and alternate blister
ing heat and chill, they marched, foot
sore, though they were from winter
campaign of more than 600 miles Of
march and battle. 1t was a Joy when
they left Washington that they could
get box cars to ride in and on-for all
could not get in. With this sort of
TRANSPORTATION they rode to the Ohio
river; then crowded on hurricane and
boiler decks of freightboats they lay
down at night with no covering but the
stars.
Arrived at Louisville, Ky, where the
veterans were modified, they put up
their fraved and worn dog tents in
open fields under the burning sun, when
IT shone; in the drenchIng rain when it
fell. There was no extra accommodate
ton for the sick. even though the war
was over. Indeed, the writer OF this
knows as fact that his regiment was
without even Its regimental surgeons,
those officers having been left behind
with the sick and wounded at Colds
boro and Washington, and the men
had to go to the surgeon of an Ohio
regiment for their ''Guinine." When
at last, after weeks and weeks Of wait
ing through the hot month Of June and
into July, the regiment was mustered
out, the men were again loaded on box
cars and transported up through In
diana and across Illinois to the vicinity
of Springfield, where they went into
biyouac III the hazel ''rutfS' aud under
brush some ten days, getting final pay
ami discharge. And from this point
they went to their various homes in
the distant parts of the state, and some
to other states, each paving his own car
tare and for what he ate along the way.

Tax Matters.

1t seems to be the general opinion
that the city committee in appearance
before the county board this week adj
vocating the sale of tax certificates
made cat rather weak case. While
claiming to need money for refunding
city bonds the discussion developed
that their primary concern is to secure
money to pay salaries and running ex-
penses, their funds for these purposes
being exhausted. Their desire is to
have the county board sell tax certifi-
Gates and turn the proceeds over to the
city regardless of the effect of tins
course upon the property owners or
upon conditions generally.
They claim the county owes the city.
IN delinquent taxes, some $500, coo. The
members of the county board on the
other hand, show by the statements of
the county Clerk and county Treasurer
that the delinquent city tax roll of 1893
yet owes the county 81 900 and that no
money will be coming to the city from
that source until that sum is collected:
and. further, that claims and suits are
now pending against the county de-
handing the return to tax certificate
holders of 100000 paid by them on
their purchase of aliegedly bad certif-
Gates, which last named sum the county
turned over to the city long ago, and
the city lost tie same. and much more,
by depositing it in banks which loaned
to irresponsible citizens.
The policy Of the county board as out
lined by its members, has been and IL
to favor the citizens and give them all
the discounts possible, waiving interest
and penalties so as 10 enable them to
save their little properties, and not to
put them in the hands of the tax title
purchasers, who may confiscate their
holdings by exactlng not only the full
amount, but also 10 per cent per an
mum interest with costs and penalties as
has been done III too many cases. That
this is the wlsest course cannot be gain
said and we trust it will not be changed
by any ciamors from any quarter.
