War Department Active.
Several Reasons Why Uncle
Sam is Preparing to Meet
Every Emergency.

Washington, Nov 16 There has
been remarkable activity about the
war department for several days in
the way of preparing .:roops for ser
vice in lands beyond the United
States. An order has been issued
directing at least ten regiments of
the regular army now stationed in
| southwestern forts and posts to hold
themselves in readiness for imme-
diate transportation and service in
tropical climates Most of the regi-
ments were sent to the northern and
western posts few weeks ago for
recuperation after their Cuban CAM
'paign. While holding themselves
ready for service these regiments will
now be recruited to their fali strength.
Nothing is said officially as to what
the present activity means, but there
are several reasons. It is believed
that an early movement to Cuba is
intended somewhat sooner than has
been generally believed before. An
other belief entertained is that the
United States government desires to
be in a condition that may grow
out of the pending peace negotia-
tons, and to be in readiness if Spain
refuses to accept the terms the
American peace commissioners OF.
fer. In this connection an in
timation has gone out to the effect
that during the delay which has &C.
cured Spain has been able to form
some sort of coalition with European
powers to back up the pretensions
she has been making in the negotia.
tons.
Another reason given for the pro-
posed movement of the regulars 70
Cuba is that thep are to replace the
regiments which have given some
tro ole and have created some dis-
turbances, the last now being re-
ported from Gen. Woods command
IN Santiago province
It may be that some of the regular
regiments are destined to replace
volunteers who have been pleading
to be sent home. -
An interesting feature of the Fl
ter is the refusal of the United s. Is
to order the muster out of th@voi-
unteers who recently returned from
Puerto Rico.
The regiments were sent to their
homes and given so days furlough,
but contrary to the plans heretofore
they are not allowed to be mustered
out of the service
As to the regular regiments, every
department in the government has
been directid to prepare supplies for
them and to arrange transportation
as soon as they are ordered to move.

1t is very different thing to the man

have done just what the Northern
whites would have done under sinai-

the regime of enlightenment and
Christianity.
We wish, however to call the
attestion of our colored friends to
one lesson of the episode which they
will do we'll to take to heart. We
ask them to consider for moment
the value of those pretended cham

infamed them by evil counsel, and
deluded them with false incitement.

boasted valor which expressed itself

deceitful white schemers and these
uproarious negro braggarts = the
benefciaries of the ignorant and
credulous loyalty of the colored
masses-when the white men flew to

employers of North Carolina, upon
whose enterprise and capital nine

their schools and hospitals and poor
houses who conduct every industry
that furnishes employment for the

every helpless and afflicted negro
appeals--never without unquestion

extremity-these white men are now
calling in the refugees to peaceful
homes aud profitable occupation,
while the former ofjce-seekers and
Office holders of both races and colors
are hiding in Northern refugees from
the storm which their rapacity and
insoience provoked
The Carolina negroes have been
dupes and victims They have been
delude0 into dreaming that they can
grasp and hold power in communities
10 which they represent practically
nothing of the true basis of civilized
society-neither wealth nor culture,
neither property nor substance A

POWER OF MoRMoNIsM.
Statistics Seem to Indicate that 1t Is
Unbrokeu in Utah.

Opponents of the Mormon church
have been stirred to renewed activity
by several recent events. Statistics
also seem to show that the general
growth of the church has been acceler.
ated rather than otherwise of late. At
the October conference President Will
ford Woodruff demanded that Nor
mons should unite in politics. At that
time the demand was set down as mere
ly the talk of an old man, but the No
vember election seems to show that
large element among the Mormons still
entertain deep respect for the revela-
tons of church elders. In Salt Lake
City John Clark, the candidate for
Mayor of the citizens, but very de-
yout Mormon, and an undisputed
church candidate was elected by a
small ma jority. The gentle vote and
the independent vote were divided
among three candidates-aIl gentiles.
Mr.. Clark was supported by the poll
ticians whose names are always assoc
ciated with church politics, and the
conclusion that the church elected him
is well supported. Every gentle who
was on the ticket with him was de-
feated. Every gentle who was on the
other tickets was seriously scratched,
and every Mormon running received a
comparatively large vote. The same
