WHERE Is Klondike?
We're Southern Troops Sighted?
Commercial Appeal.

Memphis Commercial Appeal.
1t is not clear that the administra-
ton has yielded or that it has been
actuated by anything ignoble in the
selection of troops. Gen. Wheeler was
sent to the front, and the old hero has
amply indicated the confidence and
trust reposed in him. Some surprise
and modification have been felt be-
cause Gen. Lee was not also given pre-
ference by being sent forward, but it
should be remembered that when Gen.
Lee was leaving Havana amid 1.-THE
jeers and catcalls of the Spanish rab-
BILE, after having been abruptly
and insolently refused an audience
by Gen. Blsnco, defiance was
hurled back from his vessel as it left
the harbor that I'VE will come again. p"
Gen. Lee did not give expression to
| this sentiment, but his companions and
subordinates did, and no doubt he full
ly agreed with them. In justice to
Gen. Lee he should have been sent
back to Havana. and it is only reasona-
BILE to suppose that he would
have been when the time ar
rived. This Is only a reasonable and a
patriotic conclusion. Very naturally
the southern troops would prefer to
fight under Gen. Lee, and it was not only
right, but prudent that they should be
permitted TO do so. A southern general
at the head of southern troops would be
in keeping with the eternal fitness of
things. And while we say it with hu-
mllistion, it must be said in truth that
the southern troops were far from be-
ing in readiness for the field and con-
trasted sadly with the troops from the
north, that were equipped with every
thing necessary by their respective
states: with guns, ammunition, uni
forms, camp equipage, hospital ar
rangements, artillery, cavalry and ev-
erythiug else, and they were drilled as
we'll as the regulars. On the con-
trary, the southern troops were not
even organized, IL We take Tennes-
see as q sample. The raw recruits who
were mustered in had nothing more
than what they wore on their backs.
Weeks passed and they were served
around with bsyonets, but rs they had
no belts their bsyonets were of no use
to them, and they threw them away.
Other weeks passed and they were
given one hat and three pairs of socks
apiece, and it is only lately that they
were equipped with fighting
tools. While the government
was slower than it should have been in
furnishing the volunteers, the real de-
linquency was on the part Of the south
ern states. The lesson should not be
lost. In the future we should see to it
that our gallant young men are equip
ped aud drilled and provided in every
way by the state governments, and
then If there is discrimination IL will
be time enough to complain.

ASTORIA, Oregon, has II "Push
club" 1t is not q political organiza-
ton, but. its work is devoted entirely
to booming the town, the county, and
the state. In other words, 1t Is an ex-
pansion society. 1t is a credit to the
community. The time will come when
FL Paso will advance so far that some
such organization will be possible
here. 1t is sadly needed. The one
thing that Is lacking to make of FL
Paso the actual center of a million
square miles of territory is the suprem-
acy OF 9 good, live, healthy public

ward the attainment of certain neces-
cary ends.
