was taken, Col Dockery's son-in-laW

Did you ever think about it, that when
the negro is doing anything creditable
it is their Democratic friends who treat
them best? When the Durham mill
tary company left home it was Col. Ju-
liam S. Carr that sent them on their
way rejoicing, and when the Winston
company started to camp, it was Hon
Cyrus Il. Watson who addressed them
with words of friendly counsel. And
yet everyone of them voted against Mr.
Watson and in favor of IA man who says
they are savages. These incidents prove
who are real friends of the better class

Mr.. SlGMON WASHES HIS HANDS.

We have always taken an interest IN
the political career of Mr.. A. \. Sig
mon. of Catawba county. He is much
the best man in the Republican party in
the Seventh district, due no doubt to
the fact that he was once Democrat.
He was the logical candidate for Con-
gress this year, but he has been tricked
out of the endorsement of his own coun-
ty.
Last week. noting his fine crop of
wheat, we thought the Catawba states
man would retire to the farm and leave
the jars and annoyances of politics.
This weeks Press contains a card from
Mr.. Sigmon which show that he is a
fighter from the village of Fightersyille
and will not tamely submit to the wrong
done him. In his card he charges that

crs afiOat. Still there are not enough,
and if you happen to have n 1850 ton
steamer which you wopld like to rent
for n good price write to Washington.
More than so steamers were required to
take the %, 600 troops which we recent
ly sent to Cuba. But there is nothing
surprising in that. The English used
over 800 ships In sending their army to
the Crimea. OF course their boats were
much smaller than the big liners we
have pressed into service.
Before the troopship as on the tide,
with her anchors a-trip and her decks
swarming with cheering soldiers,
whole lot Of work must be done. Load
ing transport does not consist merely
in marching the men up the gangplank.
When the present war broke out, Uncle
Sam had not a single ship ready for
transport work. There We're plenty of
big steamers lying around loose, but
none ready TO receive soldiers When the
government takes rockies to sea, it does
not provide each one with a stateroom.
Bunks have to be built, ice chests, re-
frigerating plants and distillers put in
and dozens of ventilators rigged so that
the tween decks sections may be made
habitable.
An instance of the way in which space
may be economical was seen. when the
City Of Peking sailed for Manila with
1900 troops aboard. The steerage deck
was given entirely to the sleeping ac-
commodations. The hunks are built of
white pine and stretch from side to side
Of the vessel, with narrow passageways.
They are about feet long, feet 6
inches wide and 30 inches high. While
many of them are not very uncomfort
able, there are some which necessitate
such wriggling to enter as will make
contortionists of their occupants before
Manila is reached. They are back to-
ward the partition which halves the
ship fore and att, and the would be
sleeper must perforce cross a number of
his comrades to obtain egress
In some of the transports sent to
Cuba "standee hunks" were put up on
the decks for the men to sleep on. The

ing between posts standing six feet
apart. The mattress is cotton sack
filled with straw. Canvas has been used
instead of Stats, but it is too expensive
for large armies. Four or five of these
hunks may be built one above the other
The tiers, five hunks deep and two wide,
extend all around both decks. The men
are packed in like Grated eggs except
that on one side they can fall out.
No troopship should be without its
"sick bay" which is small room
amidships where the sick are provided
for. In the hold of an ordinary trans
port there is room for go days rations
for 1000 men aud accommodations for
tentage and ammunition. The 20 horses
and mules that make part of every regi-
ments outfit may be carried between
decks. The ships also carry pontoon
trains for disembarking the troops.
Our government is bargaining that
all transports be turned over with
complete crew. This consists of cap.
tain and about 80 men for q 8, 600 ton
ship. The crew is fed and paid by the
steamship owners, and only the coal
and water are furnished by the govern
ment The ship is to be returned in
good condition, and the government
takes all war risks, which means that
if vessel is lost through any conditions
arising from the war she is to be re.
placed to the owners. If she is lost
through the carelessness of her captain,
her owners stand the loss. They take
the marine risks. " The rental is from
$3.50 to 81, 200 day, according to the
size of the vessel. Foreign vessels must
be purchased outright or else given an
American register by act of congress.
The troops who were sent to Cuba,
having only few days sail, suffered
but little from the discomforts which
commonly fall to the lot Of men on
troopships The boys who are on their
$500 mile trip to the Philippines, how
ever, will be able to tell all about it.
Packed in like sardines in a can, they
are sure to have many troubles entirely
unexpected, new and surprising. The
eager volunteers who steamed gayly out
of the Golden Gate swinging their hats
and cracking jokes will wish for land
earnestly and often before they get
away from the heaving deck.
Thirteen hundred troops cannot be
put aboard even so spacious a steamer
as the Peking without furnishing ma
terial for growls and probably blows
among the men so packed in. There
will surely be no sinecure in the work
of the regular guards aboard these trans
ports. If spats and sluggings, not in
frequent, are part of the expected and
discounted routine of practice camp of
regiment of soldiers, the incidents of
this sort in the steerage of troopship,
where men who sour on each other over
trivialities can't get away from each
others sight, are surely common enough
to keep big fore and aft guard inces-
sanity busy.
Not that the soldiers under way
aboard a troopship make a shambles
of their quarters between decks and find
surcease of sorrow only in banging away
at each others heads, but sea travelling
has the effect of making considerable
proportion Of n troopship's company
peevish, pugnacious and unmanageable
and this is the reason that troopships
