4 FREMONT PRoTEsr,

Ex-Governor Woodbury of Vermont will not be popular" if he isn't care- ful. He telegraphed to Washington as follows when he learned that the Yer mont regiment was to be ordered to Porto Rico: I respectfully protest against sending the Vermont troops to Porto Rico unless their services are &C., tually needed there. Those of us who bade our sons godspeed when they en- listed in the country's service were pre- pared for any sacrifice they might make, even to life itself, and they are now of the same mind. But when the war is over we feel that their place will be at home, with their families, and in their wonted places of business. An excursion to Porto Rico after the war is over cannot add to their honor nor to the honor of Vermont.
 Hoot, mon! Why not give the boys "show?" It will only cost a few mill lions and will be good for their health It is also expected that the expedition will be good for the health of the poli- ticians who have succeeded in getting their States represented in the glory.

4 TIME FOR ADE0UATB LECTION

All the general officers of the army of occupation in Cuba have united in saying to General Shafter, and through him to the War department, that the army should be at once taken out of the island of Cuba and sent to some point on the northern seacoast of the United States: that 1t can be done without danger to the people of the United States; that yellow fever in the army at present is not epidemic; that there are only few sporadic cases, but that the army is disabled by ma- larial fever to the extent that it's eff ciency is destroyed and that it is in condition to be practically entirely de- stroyed by an epidemic of yellow fever which is sure to come in the near fu- ture.
 And it is asserted at Washington that the War department has anticipated this very reasonable request and that the department had been directing the best part of it's energies to the re- turn of General Shafter's forces to the United States. It has also provided for their reception an ideal camp at Montauk Point, Long Island, and or ders have been sent forward to begin the homeWard movement by embark ing at Santiago five cavalry regiments of General Shafter's force, including Roosevelt's Rough Riders. It is the in tention of the department and General Shafter was instructed publicly to in- form the troops, to conduct this move ment as rapidly as the resources of the government will permit, having re- gard to the safety of the men them- selves
 The War department will do well to let its action fit it's talk in this matter. All it's energy and resources should be used to save the lives of the brave men who have saved the honor of the United States in Cuba. There will be some very bitter and very just criticism if there is not immediate and adequate action

UNIFORMS OF SOLDIERS.

Austrian Gray is the Least Fatal Color.
 The criticisms of the new summer uniforms for the army, and especially against the canvas uniform designed by General Miles, explained an army of- ficer to Star reporter, "are nearly all made in ignorance of facts and re- quirementS in the case. Nearly every thing in connection with the army has been reduced to cold statistics, and it is these that govern such matters rath- CT than theories. The ideal uniform should be suitable for the season and the place and circumstances under which it is worn. The color should be that which mostly resembles that of died grass, so that soldiers wearing it would be as little in evidence as possi- ble. The red and glaring uniforms of the British soldier of years ago has been entirely discarded by that gov ernment, for the reason that 1t too clearly indicated the wearer to an en- erny. It proved to be the most fatal color that has yet been devised. On the other hand statistics proved that the Austrian gray is the least fatal.
 
 British red i'll by the bullets of an enemy only seven who wore rifle green, six and a half who wore brown, and five who wore the Austrian blueish- gray fell. General Robert F. Lee, who made an investigation into this mat ter when he was in charge of West Point, before the war of the Rebellion, made a report in favor of gray as the color for uniforms, and ever since then the cadets at West Point have worn uniforms of that color. It was also for this same reason that General Lee adopted the gray colored uniform for the Confederate army The crack reg iments of the country the Seventh reg | iment of New York, the Fifth regiment of Maryland, and others wore gray uni- forms before the war in consequence of General Lees report. There is no doubt that soldiers are hit in battle &C., cording to the color of their uniform. In the last war the Union cause lost many a thousand men who would not have been lost had the uniform been less decided in color The dark blue uniforms worn by officers the first two years of the war were especially fatal, as they gave sharpshooters and easy way to distinguish officers It is need less to say that the dark blue was very generally discarded by officers before the war was over, especially for real engagement uniform. Any color will do for parades, practice and the like, but when 1t comes to fighting, that which makes the soldier less conspic- | uous is the least fatal for war, The new canvas uniform affords less op- portunties to an enemy than any other which has ever been designed, and from distance an approaching army can 1 hardly be distinguished by the naked eye, because the color is so allied to | that of the died grass over which the army is marching. g."-Washington Star.

PRE4 CHEERS IN BUSINESS,

The success of the Rev. P. F. Jerne- gan in relieving many of his fellow men of the money that was endanger- ing their souls has led to some curious utterances. One of them Is made by a correspondent of the Hartford Times, who writes: Common sense and prac- tical experience from all parts of the world prove that nearly all business undertakings by "Reverends" are only humbug. How can you imagine man to be honest in dealing with his fellow men when his conscience allows him to deceive his ignorant, superstitious sheep with empty promises about rewards in an unknown place-if they believe him, pay the expenses for his luxurious liv- ing when they themselves are in want? Look at the ''Rev" Jernegan's inven- great discovery to him in a dream. Be careful when investing in any business with "Reverends'' in it.
 This is savage enough to raise sus- picion that the writer was one of the "lambs" of Brother Jernegan's flock It is also somewhat unjust in the reasons given why it is not best to go into busi- ness deals with preachers. The chief reason why such business association should be avoided is that preachers don't know enough about business to do it well. Still, once in awhile there is one who does Brother Jernegan show ed great ability ill his chosen work. So did the good old presiding. elder who ''did" an experienced horse jockey rath- CT neatly. The jockey heard that the elder had a horse for sale, and he went to the elders house early one morning to see how much less than the horse was worth he could get it for. The el- der received him as if horse-trading wasn't by any means the chief end of man, asked him in to breakfast and

SOLDIERS MAKING BOOTS
 AGAINST TIME.

An interesting experiment has just been made by the Prussian war depart ment, with view to discover the speed with which artisans can work in a giv- en time in the ranks of the German army. Twelve hundred bootmakers, se- lected from the eighteen army corps scattered about the empire, were sum- moned just over month ago to Berlin, to go through a course of four weeks work. Eighteen colonels, lieutenant colonels and captains, with a corres- bonding number of non-commissioned officers, were ordered to come to the capital to superintend the men. The men were quartered in the barracks of the First Field Artillery regiment of the Prussian Guards and performed their daily work there About forty lock- smiths were told off to repaid their ma chimes when necessary. The men worked in two divisions continuously day and night, one division relieving the other. One division worked from p. m. till 2 a. m., whereupon they were relieved by the other party, which in it's turn worked from 3 a. m. till D. m. Two pauses of half an hour each were made in each twelve hours work. The men got their dinner in the barracks the one section immediately before set ting down to work, the other section immediately after their work. The wages given coincided with the wages given in time of war-6s. for ten days, including bread-money. The 1,200 men made 2,500 pairs of boots per day-that is to say, infantry and cavalry boots and lace shoes.-London Telegraph.
