Chickamauga Worse Than Cuba.

The statement made by Private H.
H. Barlage, Of Grigsby's Rough Rid
ers, to the effect that the camp at
Chickamauga was worse than Cuba,
carries with it a convincing condemna-
ton of the war department method Of
caring for the volunteer soldiery. These
complaints are evidently not off-hand
grumblings. They appear to be, how
ever, expressions Of dissatisfaction
with the lack Of official consideration
afforded the men who started out on
the call for troops. They afford, also,
additional good reasons why the dis
bandment of the volunteers should not
be delayed.
While the camp at Chickamauga
may have been healthful enough when
started in the spring, it must be re-
membered that some $4,000 men have
been bivouacked there during the sum-
mer months, and sanitary conditions
have meanwhile materially changed.
With no more work for the volunteers
to do, 1t is appropriate and right that
they should seek release from unheat-
thy surroundings~and it may be add
ed, from conditions which have been
aggravated by the slack management
which has characterized the war de-
partment.
