Where is the Flag?

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Recent,
| was in Springfield, ILL.,, and visited Me
mortal Hall and looked at the old battle
flags and the many interesting relics of the
Civil War. There l saw one or more
flags from every regiment and battery
from the State of Illinois except the 18th
III. Cav. There is not even a guidon OF
that regiment among the collection. Why
this is 1 do not know, and l feel that q
regiment that did as noble service as that
one during the rebellion should have one
or more of its old flags or guidons among
that collection. AT the request of the Gus,
tolian Of Memorial Hall l write this 10 see
If We can find any flag or guidon of the
10Th LII. Cav: and have it placed there.
1t is thought by some that the old regi-
mental colors were in Col. Carmichael's
house, at Metropolis. H., when it burned
several years ago. Some one had told the
Custodian that our regimental colors were
captured, but | think if that were true
would have known something about it. If
we ever lost even guidon by capture DUR
ing the war l never heard of it.
Now, comrades of the old 10TH we want
you to stir yourselves. Get a move on
you, and if there is one flag or guidon in
existence anywhere we must get it into
the Memorial Hall at Springfield, where
we know it will be kept safely.-Z. t.

ending of this raid from the one under

crowning every engagement, after fighting
two general engagements and at least 10
skirmishes, defeating the defiant, un-
daunted warrior of the South, Forrest,
capturing at least 1000 Of his men, FIVE
pieces of artillery, many small arms, with
the smallest loss to our army | ever knew
or read of for such an extended raid. The
boys in camp gave us great welcome,
which we, played out as we were from
hard fighting, marching, scouting and 9th
er duties devolving upon raiders, fully ap-
preciated. We felt as if we had arrived
at home sure enough.
We were off duty for two or three days.
Our brigade did not have long to wait be-
fore they started on another raid, to Ok
ford. Owing to my becoming nearly bind

"ACKNOWLEBGES THE CORN"
On One Point, But Says other Statements
Cannot Be Refuted

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Ny let
ter to you of recent date, in which
took exception to some statements of Rev.
Mr.. Moore in his article concerning the
war on the border, has called forth some
controversy, i'll which several comrades
have undertaken to correct me in return.
Mr.. Moore made a very natural and un-
intentional mistake in the number of Col
Jennison's first regiment, as | did in call
ing JennisOn's second regiment the 18th
(instead of the 10TH Kan. Cav.
The lay reader will say a mistake in
the number of regiment is not a matter
of sufficient Importance to chew the rag
over; but soldier always considers him
self, and rightly, too, a defender of the
reputation of his regiment; hence it is of
vital Importance, he thinks, to gather in
all the credit and as little censure as pos
sible for his organization, and to bear no
blame that belongs to another.
L would not cast unmerited reflections
on any officer or soldier of the war; but in
the interest of correct history / think the
truth should be told, no matter whose
toes are tread on. And these controver-
sizes often draw out interesting items of
actual history that otherwise might be
lost.
Besides the letters published correcting
me in regard to the number of Jennison's s
last regiment | have received several let
ters from former members of the 10th
Kan. Cav, informing me of my error in
this, but confirming other statements of
mine.
l acknowledge the corn" 1t was the
10Th, not the 10th Kan. Cav, of which
Jennison was Colonel. My other state
ments have not been successfully contra
dicted by any, and by some have been
corrObOrated, and l think they are sus-
ceptible of proof. At all events, | stand
pat on all l said, with the exception of
the mistake acknowledged; but it must
be remembered that some of my assertions
were made as hearsay testimony on what
| believe to be good authority.-R NJ.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: / see in
recent issues the difference in accounts of
incidents during the great struggle of '61-
10. Having been a participant in that
conflict from Dec. 20, 1861, 10 Dec. -,
1S65-four years and seven days-I can
not see how there can be so much differ
ence as to occurrences, such as the troops
ut Shiloh and the Fort Stevens affair. 1t
seems to me that with the histories by
various writers there ought to be proof
positive as to the general action and the
troops engaged.
OF course, there were different expert
ences by individuals engaged therein. For
instance, | was in the battle of Stone
River, Tenn, Dec. 81, 1862, and Jan. 2,
lS63, and what l saw and experienced
know full well; but what other troops
were engaged and what others went
through with is either history or guess
work. L must say the same as to ChickI-
mauga, Mission Ridge, etc. OF course, m
dividual incidents are all o. X. if truly
written, either from memory or diary, SO
long as it doesn't attempt to dispute the
formation or position of Others.
Now, as to the capture of different bat
teries by certain commands, see no room
for dispute for the honor thus attained.
Let me say that 80 years is a long time
to tax our memory with, and nine-tenths
of us are not able to say truthfully that
we can rely on our memory so long. So
let US, one and all, write our personal ex-
peTiences, etc. and let each and every one
have his own way without dispute.
Well, | have been reader vi the sol
diers' best friend for several years, and

Emperor Williams
Words We're HaSty

Berlin, July a8.-Emperor William S ad-
dress to the soldiers comprising the China
expedition forms the sabject Of general dis.
cIs>ion today. The Emperor's instructions
to spare no Chinese and make no prisoners
are condemned by nearly everybody one
meets, and also by the press.
Tine "Lokal Anzeiger" pretends that the
Emperor did not mean what his words
implied, but that he merely wished to
caution the members of the expedition
that they would meet for who does not
spare and makes prisoners. But nearly
all the other papers, commenting upon the
Emperor's speech, strongly argue against
II, the "Tageblatt," In specially caustic
manner, reminding the Emperor that tel.
ling his soldiers to carry civilization into
China and In the same breath enjoinlng
them to deal with ferocious severity there
do not tally. Besl5es, the paper argues,
the Emperor has no right to so instruct
the expedition, because the expedition will
f0rm part Of whole and be under the
command of chief Of some other nation
atty, whose instructions solely they must
obey.
The paper maintains that "the EN-.
peror's behavior Is likely to split up the
harmony Of the Powers, as doubtless some
Of the Powers will not agree to the EN-.
peror's instructions"
Several papers draw a parallel between
this la est speech by Emperor William
and the one delivered In 1905, dedleating
to the RedeemeT the church at jerusalem,
on which occasion the Emperor preached
the gospel Of Cnristlan long suffering to-.
ward all nations.

Judge Humphreys
Charge to Jury

Following is the full text of Judge
Humphreys charge to the Grand jury
this morning:
Mr.. Foreman and gentlemen OF the
grand jury:-I desire to direct your at
tention to a matter which | feel Ii
proper to advert to at this time. Since
the beginning Of this term, and since
the organization of this jury certain
statements have been made In the pub
lie press. desire to say to you, gen.
tlemen Of the Grand Jury, that you are
not to concern yourselves with any
matter or thing, by whomsoever II
may purport to have been written or
signed, which appears in the public
press of this city or In any public
with crimes that have ben or are a.
legged to have been committed end with
press, Your are to concern yourselves
such matters as this court cha:gel you
to investigate and report on. w, are
concerned with present evils and con-
ditions. Let us look hopefully to he
future, care for the present and not
dig up things of the past. On the litn
day of August, 1898, the Reoublic Ct
Hawaii passed into history. Like any
other historical fact II is subject &c
criticism and censure II criticism anj
cSnsure be deserved II is not for vol
to determine whether or not certain
conditions did prevail here prior to Tho
18th day Of August, 1898. 1t is mat
ter Of which you can absolutely TAX,
no cognizance. II is not within YOU
duty to determine whether or not TIN
monarchy was rightfully overthrown
whether or not troops were properl,
landed here from an American man q
war. It is matter of some historical
importance as to whether or not Mary
Queen of Scots was rightfully behead
ed, but this grand jury is not to con
Germ itself with that any more than n
to whether the Hebrew or the Gentil,
religion is the proper religion. Such a.
Investigation besides opening up
wide field Of enquiry would be absurl
You will not be influenced by anything
said in the public press. There mr.
many things said in the press that ar
true, and unfortunately many thing
are said In the press that are untrue
but 1t is not your business and plac
to run through threshing machin
all of the idle remarks made from tim
to time In the public press. With thi
caution you may retire.
