I was to be second lieutenant of H
company. Lieutenant p. S. Ray of E
company resigned and Sergeant Ball
was to be second lieutenant of E COM
pany. These were the recommended
tons made by Col. Funston but now 1
understand that Lieutenant w. A.
Green of F company is to be adjutant,
Ball is to be second lieutenant of F
company and Hardy is to be second
lieutenant of E company.
IF I had known that politics and
political influence must be brought to
bear to secure a promotion ] would
have done so, but I rested wholly on
the recommendations of Col. Funston
and never imagined they would be dis
regarded.
1T is not the business of an enlisted
man to discuss such things. An en-
listed man is to have no feelings, but
to do as he is told but nevertheless I
was never so surprised than when I
heard of the appointments. I gave up
a good position to enter the service and
applied personally to Col. Funston for
the position of sergeant major. I could
do more good as sergeant major than
in any other position and I supposed
that when the proper time came I
would receive promotion if 1 deserved
it. AS the ranking On-cOmmissiOned
officer and with my military experience
in the regular army had no doubt that
I would receive a promotion when the
time came but I shall go back to my
regiment and will not be sOured by ad-
verse circumstances.
"DeFord resigned partially from po-
Iitical reasons and partly because he
was engaged to a young lady in Fort
Worth. Her parents were going to
break up the match by sending the
young lady to Europe and he made up
his mind one noon, resigned that after
noon and left in the evening. A SER
geant major naturally knows as much
about the regiment as any one, but
he is supposed to hold his tongue. De
Ford is out but I am not. DeFOrd is
a very nice fellow and 1 always stood
by him and thought he would by me.
Politics thoroughly demoralizes a
regiment. No ones work counts for
anything and all appointments go by
favor. The person appointed may not
know thing about the duties he is to
perform and he may be jumped over
the heads of many who know a great
deal more than he does about military
affairs.
Col Funston is a fine man and has
the regular army idea of handling a
regiment If something comes up that
he does not know about he consults
some regular army officer and when he
finds out what is right he stands by it.

1T MAY GO YET.
Sergeant Major Dodge Still Thinks
the goth Kansas May GO to
Honolulu

1.-The enlisted men of the Twentieth
Kansas do not wish to be mustered
out if there is any chance of their going
to Hawaii. the Philippines or some
other new country" said Sergeant
Major Frederick R. Dodge of the Tween
tieth Kansas yesterday. Sergeant Major
Dodge was detailed to deliver Quarter
master Young at the federal prison at
LeavenwOrth and is allowed a few
days furlOugh before joining his regi-
ment.
The experience that the boys have
gone through since they have enlisted
and the mOnOtOnOuS routine of camp
life has had a tendency to break their
spirits They are only anxious to come
home for the reason that if there is no
possibility of their going somewhere
they would rather be spending their
time with their friends and relatives
and to once more engage in business
rather than loaf round where they are.
The mOnOtOny of drill, drill and then
some more drill and the uneventfuI life
in camp is enough TO discourage them.
They have been all ready to go to Hon
olulu and were equipped with white
duck suits. white helmets, white gloves,
barrack shoes, cotton Undertaking,
ready for four months in a warm
climate.
The Second brigade in command of
General Merriam expected to sail on
the transports Australia. Pekin and
embark word was received from Col.
Barber that the two battaliOns of the
First New York that had gone ahead
could not find suitable camp location in
Honolulu and then the first brigade
was ordered back to camp and General
Merriam went to Honolulu to see what
accommodations could be found for the
troops. He will be back in about two
weeks and when he arrives it may be
that we will be ordered to Honolulu
If we are not ordered to Honolulu it is
my opinion that we will not be muster
ed out until spring at least. COmplica-
tons may arise in the Philippines and
the peace commission may not finish
its work for six months. I think that
none of the troops on the Pacific coast
will be mustered out till everything is
settled.
When the Twentieth Kansas went to
California people thought that it was
then in the most ragged and deplorable
condition of any body of men they
ever saw They We're Immediately
n1cknamed the Kansas hayseeds,' but
few weeks ago the Kansas regiment
gave an exhibition drill and entertain
ment in Mechanics pavilion and the
people opened their eyes. Every one
pronounced it the best exhibition given

by any regiment there. Gen. Charles
King, who knows what he is talking
about, said that the Kansas regiment
was the best drilled, the best disciplined
and the best equipped regiment on the
coast and he requested when he went
to the Philippines that his brigade be
made up of the Twentieth Kansas,
Thirteenth Minnesota and First Ten
nessee.
The Twentieth Kansas band has
been pronounced the best band of
all the regimental bands. When an en-
tertainment is going on in town and
they want a band the request is always
made for the Kansas band and they
generally get it. 1t is we'll known and
well liked When the Twentieth New
York regiment, the 'Haughty New
Frisco a request was made for the
Kansas band to meet them and play
them off the boat. After they had
landed another request was made that
the Kansas band lead them to camp
so through the streets they went play
ing national airs. Most people supposed
it was the New York band and said,
oh yes, that is the famous New York
when someone told that it was the Kan
sas band they said, oh.
In regard to the sickness in the
regiment everything must be taken in
to consideration. The four or five weeks
spent in camp at Topeka in all that
rain and then the ride to San Francisco,
some in sleepers and some not, no
change of clothing and then to come
right from shops, offices and stores to
live in the open air night and day was
enough to make most anyone sick. The
fOgs at Camp Merritt commenced at
four in the afternoon and lasted till
nine o'clock the next morning. The
men were constantly damp with no way
of drying their clothes and were chilled
through. The sand was wet and only
the top for about an inch would dry
during the day. The straw used by
the men for bedding became wet and
was ordered burned on account of the
disease supposed to Hnger in it. But
when it was burned the condition of the
men sleeping on the wet sand was even
worse. We were moved about two
blocks to a place where another regi-
ment had been camping and we were
no better off. The Preside where we
are now camped is fine place and dry
in dry weather but when the rainy
season comes it will be very wet and
muddy as the soil is clay"

training in the regular army, was 10th

NEW TRIAL FOR DREYFUS.
The Demand Comes Up From All
Quarters of France.

New York. Sept TIA dispatch to the
Tribune from Paris says:
Colonel Henry's confession of having
forged the famous document upon the
authenticity of which General du BOis-
deffre, chief of staff of the French army
in his impaSsiOned appeal to the jury in
the Zola trial staked his own reputation
and the honor of the army, and Colonel
Henrys suicide in the fortress of Mont
Valerien, have caused an emotion
throughout France which has not been
witnessed since the fall of Sedan.
Col. Henry, a peasants son, promo
ted from the ranks and imbued with all
the instincts, low cunning and narrow
personal animOsity often characteristic
of French peasants, had no conception
of the enormity of his crime until over
whelmed by its detection This brave
but infatuated chief of the intelligence
department of the French army embod-
led the whole head and front of Drey-
fus conviction, of ZOla'S condemnation,
of Esterhazy's acquittal and of Pic
quarts degradation and imprisonment.
Although the document which Colonel
Henry forged in 1896 cannot technically
have any effect on the Dreyfus trial.
which took place in 1894 it is neVerthe-
less with CONSERVATION that today peO-
pie are asking what sort of evidence
could Dreyfus have been convicted up
on if, in the judgment of Colonel Hen
ry, it was so flimsy that he thought it
could not stand investigation without
being propped up by official forgery.
M Cavaignac the minister of war, in
his memora BILE speech in the chamber
on July 7, based his declaration upon
the authenticity of this forged docu-
ment which was printed and posted on
the walls throughout France.
After conversing with representative
Frenchmen of every class and after
mixing with excited groups in the
streets and cafes, it is evident that
popular tide is at last turning in favor
of a revision of the Dreyfus trial, no
matter what the consequences may be-
the GaulOis, the Echo de Paris and
journals which are known to be in close
touch with the army now declare that
the feeling of military men is hot for a
revision of the court martial and that
many prominent officers insist that it
is the honor of the army itself which
necessitates such revision.
General du Boisdeffre, whose mon
strous threat to resign with the whole
general staff of the army if lola was
acquitted has now, by his resignation,
admitted that he was the blind dupe of
a forger.
This inspires grave anxiety as to
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1898-09-02

whether or not the present general staff
has been duped in other matters-that
of national defence, for instance. Henry
ROchefort, who still champions the va
lidity of Dreyfus' condemnation, is au-
thOrity for the statement that all the
officers of the French general staff en-
ployed in Paris have applied to be re-
heved of their present duties and sent
back to their respective regiments.
The minister of war is conscientious
ly subjecting all documentary evidence
used in the Dreyfus and Zola trials to
expert tests to ascertain whether any
further fOrgeries exist. There is every
indication that the army and people
now demand that the prisoner on Dew
lis Island shall have a new and fair
trial, but this cannot take place for
many months.
