Stands Ready to Serve His Country and
Advises Quick and Powerful Blows.
General John B. Gordon. of Georgia,
was in New Orleans Tuesday, and in
view of oft-repeated wishes Of the peo-
pie of the South that he be placed in
chief command of the Southern yolun-
teers. he was asked:
General how is your health now!
81 am not as well as | would like to be,
but" he added, with smile, my health
has greatly improved since war was de-
clared.
Have you rendered your services or
viii you do soy"
II have not yet done so. As command
er-in-chief of the United Confederate
Veterans, / have felt that any action by
me would, in some sense, be considered
as a committal Of them; and while |
never doubted for one moment their
readiness to fight when their services
were needed, yet it seemed due to them
that / should have something more tang
ible than my own opinions before taking
any action in the premises. could not
well separate my individual acton from
my official relation TO them IN a matter
of this nature. Moreover, my bellef has
been and my hope still is that the war
will he brought TO a successful end by
the regular army and the organized mli-
tary of the States now called into SER
vice. 1t has seemed to me, therefore, that
until there was a real necessity for more
troops, any such step on my part would
be premature These tried veterans I'M
der my command do not need any mere
idle display of their patriotism or OF
their readiness to fight for the republics
honor and it's flag. The whole country
knows that already"
"Have you consulted them or any OF
them as to their feelings and wishesY
oh, yes. In my recent travels through
the South ! have found but one senti-
ment among them They are old, and the
great body of them are poor men, whose
families have nothing upon which to de-
pend except their labors; and yet | have
not found man physically able to
march who does not assure me that he IS
ready to go to the front when the coun-
try needs him. You must have seen how
Generals Hampton, Stephen ID. Lee and
Cabell, who are the commanders of the
different departments of the United Con-
federate Veterans, are talking. General
Lee has written me a special letter on
the subject, in which he says that he
and every true Confederate will stand
by me if the occasion arises for action
on our part.
II was delighted at the noble express
sion by the camps in New Orleans few
days ago. Such action ON the part Of
these camps in New Orleans, where orig
mated our organization, will not surprise
the country at all; but it serves notice
on Spain and the civilized world that we
are all soldiers Of the republic and that
there are no sectional or State lines
when common enemy is to be met.
Other camps are taking similar action
and every reference made by me in my

recent speeches {, yar and the flag
have evoked great enthusiasm
General, what is your idea Of the
wisest policy in conducting the war
against Spain?"
We'll, my friend, have great conf
dence in the combined wisdom Of those
who have the responsibility upon them
at Washington, and | am bound, there
fore, to suppose that there are reasons
for delay iii the movement upon Cuba
of which we on the outside are not and
could not safely be informed / confess
chat | deeply regret that there should
exist any causes for delay. | should be
glad TO So suel a blow struck at BlaneO
and his army in Cuba as Commodore
Dewey Is said to have struck Mt the
Spanish fleet Of the Philippine Islands.
| should be glad 10 see all the transports
in American waters chartered and the
whole of the regular army and all of
the volunteers at once landed in Cuba.
DO you think we need any such force
to defeat the SpaniardS now on the
island?''
mo, Of course not. A comparatively
small force in conjunction with the Gu
ban army might suffice t0 defeat the
Spanish troops; but / should prefer to
make our army so overwhelming in Gu
ba as 10 crush the Spaniards at a single
blow That is the cheapest way, ] think,
10 end the war. | do not mean by cheap
est that it is the best way to save money,
but blood. ! do not care about the cost
IN money, but | want to save the lives
Of our brave boys. Why, sir, the very
fact of landing such force on Cuban
soil would carry dismay into Blaneo's
camps and TO the Spanish throne itself
Blanco's men would have no heart for
battle left i'll them. We would hem
them uD III Havana in few hours, and
then, with our batteries from the hills
behind the city, the Spaniards would be
FORCED to caoitulate. We would move
with such force that not q line of de-
Tense outside of the city could hold IFS
III check for a day--perhaps scarcely for
an hour. You perceive that we would
thus quickly possess all the territory
where Cuha's starving women and chill
dren are now dying; and this fact, it
seems to me, justifi6s the expenditure OF
our utmost strength
WHAT do you think about the yellow
feyer?'
THE best way to avoid loss by fever
as well as from bullets. as | have lust
said is to crush the SDaniards at a blow
and bring our army back home"
You do not approve, then, Of the sug-
gestion TO wait until fall?'
NO, | do not. That might do. If we
We're not morally religiously bound TO
save from starvation every oppressed
Cuban possible. Besides, | am an nm
compromising believer IN the maxim Of
Stonewall Jackson-that the time IA
strike an enemy is when he is least pro-
pared; and ! should deplore DELAY that
would enable Spain to divert the co.
operation Of our feet under Sampson Inv

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1898-06-03

The decision Of the United States Court,
in Milwaukee, in regard to the fares of the
street railways of that city, does not seem
to affect the main issue in this and other
cities--the power of the Legislature and city
councils to limit the life of charters or the
nature of investments The Council of Mil
waukee passed an ordinance requiring the
companies to sell six tickets for 25 cents.
The company resisted the ordinance on the
ground that the Council had no power I'M
der the charter to adopt such measure,
and that the reduced rate deprived the
company of the power to pay fair return
on its investment Judge Seaman did not
pass upon the question of the right of
city council to regulate fares on street rail-
ways Perhaps he IS of the opinion that
the Supreme Court has already settled that
point in it's decision regarding the right of
legislatures to regulate fares on railroads
so long as the charges of transportation
thus fixed will afford fair return on the
investment.
Judge Seaman confined himself to ques-
ton of fact. He came to the conclusion
that the street-railway company's invest
cent fare would not afford a fair return on
the capital. 1t was upon this conclusion
that he made his decision. If the plant has
cost that amount of money the decision is
just. 1t does not appear what means the
judge took to ascertain the real amount of
money invested.
If he had been dealing with the Citizens
Company, of this city, he would have found
that it is capitalized for $1,000 900, or at the
rate of about $4,000 a mile. Such valua-
ton is absurd. The plant could be dupli-
Gated for one-third that amount, and it has
never cost above that figure. Not only is
the stock fictitious, but nearly ne-third of
the bonds do not represent value in the
plant The patrons of the Citizens Com
pany in Indianapolis would be gratifed to
have the fares fixed at figure that would
pay net per cent. return on the actual
cost Of the road, or for what it could be du-
plicated for, with 10 per cent. added.
AS this matter is sure to come up in the
next Legislature in some FORM the people
of Indianapolis should not forget to have
their candidates for representatives pledged
to stand by the city's interests.
