The Home. Coming of the Fleets.

On Saturday, August 90, the citizens
OF New York did their best to give
rouslng and enthusiastic welcome to
Admiral SIMPSONS fleet of battleships.
which entered the harbor early in the
morning. The celebration was an i'm
promptu affair, but the flagship. New
York, had hardly entered the Sarrows
before the shores OF Staten Island. Long
Island, and New Jersey were black with
people. aud along the docks OF New
York City, from the windows OF the tall
buildings and up along Riverside Drive,
one could see nothing but countless
masses Of people, all madly cheering the
returning conuuerors.
The grim battleshlps showed little or
no signs OF the fight with CeFvera's
fleet First came the flagship New
York, from the mainmast Of which Ad-
mlraI SIMPSONS twin-sta= flag OF blue
wHs flying. and which was under com
mand OF Captain F. f. Chadwick. Next
came the Iowa, under the command OF
Captain Evans; then the Indiana. under
the command Of Captain Taylor; then
the Brooklyn, bearing Admiral Schley's
blue flag with two stars, under the COM
mand OF Captain Cook. She was follow
ed By the Massachusetts. under the
command Of Captain HigglnsOn. The
famous Oregon. whose wonderful burst
OF speed in chasing the CrIstobal Colon,
and whose wonderful fighting powers
excited the admiration OF the whole
world, came next She was followed by
what was once known as the "hoodOO
boat" the Texas. which has brushed
aside the .hoodoo." and shown herself
TO be one our best fighting machines.
The vessels were more or less clean
looking, with the exception OF the Mas
sachusetts. She was dirty, and, as one
young girl put It. respectable dirty"
The vessels proceeded up the Hudson
river as far as Grants tomb, where our
picture taken from Harper's Weekly,
shows the vessels. After saluting, they
turned around and went down the river.
They stopped short time at Cover
nors Island. and then proceeded to their
anchorage off TompkinsviIle. The oc-
casiOn was one long to be remembered
By New Workers and others who saw
the parade. The spectacle was very
impressive, FOR these vessels, with their
guns and crews, had made American
history. and had won for this country a
new glory. The men who had done so
nobly behind the guns could be seen
standing on the forward decks respond
lnq heartily 10 the cheers Of the crowds,
There was not much time for prepara-
ton for this parade. but what New
York could do 20 honor these ships and
men was done. and the day will not be
forgotten as long a. generations hand
down records to succeeding generations.

SENSATIONAL CLAMOR
Going TOO Far-Tho Ea.u.. olson. EEss
gsFaiiona.

Going 100 Far-Tho ER.uts olson EESS
gsrniions.
Chicago Inter-ocean: The FIRST eject
OF the sensational clamor about alleged
abuses is to lower the tone Of public
sentiment. At the beginning Of the war
and all through the war Americans
stood together in a way to excite the
admiration OF the old world. Foreign
critics were in the habit Of saying that
people moved By SO unseifsh spirit
of unity deserved 20 conquer. Il the
sensatlonallsts rightly represent the
people now, our critics abroad would be
justified in saying that Americans who
cannot appreciate either organization
for victory or victory itself do not de-
: The second effect is to dlscredlt the
army. When war was declared the
government intrusted the selection and
management OF camps TO the most ex-
perienced general officers In the regular
army. The management was not LEFT 20
subordlnates or to inexperienced enthu-
siasts. In every case major general
OF long service and splendid record was
placed in command, except IN the cases
OF Lee at Jacksonville and Wheeler at
Tampa. At the time these selections
were made It was universally conceded
that the right men had been chosen and
that the mistakes OF 1861 would not De
repeated. Now. II there is one iota OF
truth in the charges Of the sensational
lists, these officers know that the criti-
cgsm Is for them. II the camp sites were
bad, as the sensation mOngers say they
were; II the sanitary conditions were
not what they ought to have been, the
finest officers OF our regular army are
less competent than the most rattle
Drained youngsters OF the yellow press.
The third effect Is to create false i'm
pressions as to the volunteers and their
officers. The logic OF the sensational
charges OF the yellow journals is to the
effect that the volunteers have no
nerve, no stamina; that they cannot re-
sIst exposure or the temptations OF
camp; that they cannot endure even the
hardshIps OF camp life al home, much
less the rigors OF campaigns in an en-
eYny's country; that they are poorly Of
ficered, helpless in caring for them
selves, insubordInate In the matter Of
regulations, ond disposed TO regard all
untOward conditions as grievances. The
people are not willing that our splendid
young fellows in the volunteers shall
rest under such imputations but what
care the seusationalIsts? They would
sacrifice the reputation Of every Volun-
teer to carry their point.
II the sensation managers can make
the people believe what they sag
against the volunteers. The result Of
this would be that the next war would
be fought mainly by regulars. season.

planning acceptance Of unpleasant con-

ONO COUNTY REPUBLICAN nCKET.


The dispatches that are being publish
ed in papers outside Of this state, alleg-
ing that there is complaint about suf-
fering among the members of the First
West Virginia regiment, which has
been at Camp Thomas but is now at
Knoxville, Tenn. should be traced to
the authors. who should be exposed.
The STORIES" are usually dated at Par
kersburg, but are certainly not the
work Of any respectable Parkersburg
newspaper man. There has been cause
enough OF complaint about poor camp
conditions without adding to 1t by the
creation of faIseh0ods.
1t has already been shown, even by
the most Sensational newspaper &c
counts, that many causes of complaint
nave been due to lack OF discipline. In
some cases. and the negligence and in
competency of officers in others, and the
dispatch we have especially in mind
seems to reflect upon the officers Of the
First West Virginia regiment. In JUS
tice to these officers. and for the credit
Of the state, 1t should be said that there
Is not an iota Of truth in what has been
published of this nature. Privates Of
the company. in writing to their friends
and the newspapers, speak in the high
est terms Of their officers and OF the
snlendid condition Of the regiment
4 letter from Colonel spIlman, quoted
from in Wednesdays Parkersburg Jour-
nal. states that There have been but
two deaths in the regiment, neither be-
ing due to camp conditIons-one from
neuralgia and another from stomach
trouble, and that the only two cases Of
fever were OF recent occurrence. The
Journal says: Colonel SpIlman states
that the record OF the regiment for
health stands at the top of the list of the
chckamauga troops, owing to the care
the boys have taken OF themselves and
the sanitary conditions Of their camp"
This should be sufficient evidence of
the competency of the officers of the
First regiment and the discipline of the
men. Whatever complaints may be
brought concerning the general condi-
ions at Chlckamauga, the records OF the
west Virginia regiment and several
from other states about which reports
have been published, clearly demon
strate that strict Observance Of rules Of
health and personal oversight by the
regimental officers could have saved a
vast amount Of sickness.
The Iutelllgencer has no purpose TO
offer excuse for any one who has been
70 blame for unnecessary suffering OF
the volunteers In the camps where large
bodies OF troops have been assembled in
the heat nf the summer, but the public
should not be mIsled by TOO hasty
Judgment In aft cases. The conditions
have been unusual. and the story OF
sickness and suffering, sad as 1t is, Is
similar to that OF other wars. War re-
cords almost universally show that more
lives are lost from disease and exposure
than in battle. Near twice as many
men died in our civil war from disease
as from wounds received In battle, while
almost two and half times as many
we're discharged from the army on nc
count Of sickness. as to cases where
