Breaking The SOLDIERS IN.
Steady Exercise for the Troops at
Chickamauga.
Plenty Of Good r Rtions-Ihe Rcu-
tine of Camp Life-Ple n
Weather Permits Regular Drill.
Recruits Continue to Arrive and
the Material Tries Out Well-Sup-
plies Of Reading Matter.

Chickamauga, Chattanooga National
Military Park, Tenn, June 22.-Clear,
weather, with a mild temperature and
strong breezes, prevail to-day at Camp
Thomas. 1t is ideal weather for drill
ing and the most is being made of it.
More guns arrived this morning, more
recruits came in, and in fact everything
is progressing highly satisfactorily,
with one exception. This exception
is the payment of the New York troops,
which is at standst1ll. The indica-
tions to-day are that it will be many
weeks before the pay rolls are put into
shape and the matter finally disposed
Of.
A number of Chattanoogans have
made arrangements to distribute lid
magazines, newspapers and other peri
odicals among the troops. There is a
deficiency of reading matter in the
camp, especially in the division and
regimental hospitals, and the Chatta
noogans believe they can supply the
wants of the troops in this particular.
The rations which the soldiers are now
receiving are entirely satisfactory.
Lieut.. Thomas H. Clifford, commits
sary of the Third Brigade, Third Divis-
ion, First Corps, gives list of the most
important items of food issued in ten
days rations to his brigade. They fol-
low: Fresh beef, 24,535 pounds; bacon,
$3.50 pounds; soft bread, 2S,C4O pounds;
beans, $500 pounds; potatoes, 22,50O
pounds; onions, 5000 pounds; roasted
coffee, 2,100 pounds; sugar, 4,200
pounds; salt, LOO pounds; vinegar, $50
gallons; pepper, 70 pounds; soap, LAO
pounds; candles, 420 pounds.
Maj. Lorrigan, commanding the First
Battalion of the Ninth New York, has
resigned, having rendered his resigna
ton to Col Greene, commanding that
regiment 1t is said that Maj. Lori
gan resigned on account of his busi-
ness interests in New York. 1t is
not known who will succeed Maj. Lor-
rigan. Col. Greene will recommend the
appointment of a successor after Maj.
Lorrigans resignation has been accep-
ted by the war department.
In the First Division, First Corps,
the men are now being drilled about
four hours every day.
Bright, cheerful weather continues
to prevail at the park and the vast
body of soldiers is apparently in the
best of spirits. The sick rate is grad
ually diminishing, and the regiments
from the most northerly portion of the
country now feel that they are thor
oughly acclimated. The rations have
improved until there is no further COM
plant from any quarter. The vouch-
ers for fresh beef aggregate more than
$4,000 per week.
Col. Grigsby's cowboys have reached
wonderful proficiency since coming to
this point. They are hard workers,
and although the whole army expected
to witness disorder in their camp. they
are among the most orderly and best
behaved men here. The health of the
regiment is remarkable.

DESIRE FOR HARMONY
Was the Distinguishing Sentiment of the
Silver Advocates OF Michigan.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, June 22-De-
sire for harmony seemed to be the dis
tinguishing sentiment among the dele
gates when the State Democratic and
Populist conventions opened shortly after
noon to-day. Apparently the Populist
leaders had concluded that they wanted
no fight over division of the State offices.
They expressed themselves willing to
concede anything reasonable" but de-
clared they would oppose changing the
name Democrat tic Peoples Union-Silver, to
plain Democrat. as proposed by
some of the latter party. The Silver Re-
publicans appeared to be agreeable to go
with the majority parties to the triple
alliance, and all conceded the nomination
of ex-Congressman Justin R. Whiting,
of ST. Clair for Governor, and the selec-
ton of Daniel J. Campau, of Detroit,
for Chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee.
The Democratic convention was called
to order by Fred A. Baker, of Detroit,
retiring Chairman of the Central Com
mittee, who announced the selection Of
Thomas F. McGarry, of Grand Rapids.
as temporary Chairman. Mr.. McGarry
made no reference to State affairs. Con-
corning war issues, he declared that how
ever much citizens differ as to the neces-
sity of the war, or regret that the states
manship of those in control could not hon
orably avoid it, every American must sup
port the COMMUNICATIVE chief, without
suggestion or criticism or complaint.
"Sectionalism,'' said the Chairman, has
been obliterated. The bravery of the
Green mountain boy at Manila was ex-
celled only by the heroism of Alabama
son at Santiago, and our Alger issues
orders obeyed by thousands who once
wore the gray. The Republican party
is a sectional party. 1t has but one fixed
principle, and when that is crystalized
into law, it wanders aimlessly, and is
now tending to Imperialism" The
speaker appealed for just and frugal adj
ministration; one permitting use of the
constitutional system of gold and silver
money, a government in which the Demo-
cracy shall stand guard and whose affairs
shall be administered by the peerless
leader, William Jennings Bryan

It is Different Now.

There was a time about three
years ago when the people of Rapid
City grew tired Of the ''holding up"
process of the old Black Hills Tele-
phone Co., and a great many phones
we're ordered taken out of the resi-
dences and business houses around
town, until the old Shylock line de-
cided to close up it's exchange office
here and maintain only a toll station.
The city concil took the matter up
and told the old line that whenever
it ceased to maintain an exchange
in Rapid City it's franchise was for
feited. and it would have to haul
down it's poles and get out Of town
altogether. The exchange was con-
tinued but the rates for telephones
were still held at an exnibitant
figure. What the old line could not
make on many customers it made up
by robbing its few patrons.
Finally the new Harrison system
reached Rapid City and the rates of
the old Shylock line came tumbling
down in "a hurry. Indeed, it has
done it's utmost to freeze out the
Harrison line, going SO far in one or
two instances as to put phones into
houses for nothing. Such has been
the record of the Black Hills Tele-
phone Co., all along. 1t robbed its
patrons as long IS it possibly could
and then when a competing line
comes in it lets go it's greedy grasp
only because it is forced to do so,
and inaugurdtes a starving out sys-

line to thank for excellent ~uservice

BRYAN'S PATRIOTISM.

In spite Of the fact that William
]. Bryan promptly offered his ser
vices to the government when war
was declared, the republican press
has been bitter in it's attacks be-
cause he has not entered the mill
tary service.
President Mckinley ignored
Bryan's offer, as might have been
expected, and appointed a large
number of rich nobodies to mill
tary positions. OF course, a re
publican administration would do
all it could to discredit the reform
er who secured 6, 500, 900 votes
at the last presidential election.
Now William !. Bryan has be-
gun active work in recruiting a
regiment of soldiers in Nebraska,
which he will command, and it is
understood that he will ask to be
sent to the front, where he and
his regiment can engage in active
service.
1t goes without saying that
Bryan's motives will be maligned
by the administration press.
Doubtless every effort possible will
be made to keep Bryan out of the
army. AS long as he waited for
an acceptance of his services the
administrator organs jibed at his
delay and urged him to go to the
front. Now that he has become
convinced that he can expect no
recognition from Mckinley as a
patriotic citizen, and has entered
upon the Independent work of
raising a regiment, he will be
abused worse than ever.
There is a very little patriotism
and a vast deal of politics in the
republican conduct Of the war.
The administration wanted peace
even at the cost of dishonor, and
it has been forced into taking a
manly stand by the loyal and
patriotic people.
If the republicans can secure
political capital out of the war they
will consider they have made some
gain, but simply to preserve the
honor of the nation, to make Cuba
tree and revenge the destruction of
the Maine would be considered
small reward by them.
