OMAHA. March 2O.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Referring to the controversy
in the papers in reference to the treat
mont of the union prisoners captured and
held in AndersOnville prison, recall a
lecture delivered by the late General Paul
Nandcrvoor ! was only n boy about
II years OF age at the time and l well
remember women fainting in the hall
while he depicted those awful scenes.
II made such an impression upon me
that in after years 1 always read any
thing 1 could get upon the subject just
to see II his description could he verified.
/ have found that even he could not por-
tray the awful scenes enacted there, how
the brave men crossed the dead line pur-
posely to be shot rather than suffer the
pangs OF hungcr and disease. Some years
after ] had the pleasure Of his company
on a train going to st. Louis and again
he told me that no tongue could depict
those awful days OF filth, starvation and
disease. NJ, ID. V.

AS measure OF business precaution steps
should be taken to limit the number of candi-
dates pictures In show windows. few might
stand inspection as works Of pictorial art or a

SCOTTS BLUFF, Neb., March 20--To
the Editor of The Bee: Under the head
ing. The Sage Of Silver Creek" appeared
an article over the signature OF Charles
Wooster which brings TO our lips the
words of Christ. Father forgive them
they know not what they do"
The article Is too ridiculous and I'M
worthy of comment were it not for the
fact that IL is misleading and might
spread its poison among a few loyal
citizens who possibly have not kept them
selves posted on the Mexican situation.
We find our friend in his ardent desire
to strike vehemently at this admlnistra-
ton. failed to post himself on the existing
conditions for he states that the diff
ferent factions of the Mexican people
we're Staying, pillaging and numbering
each other because our government re-
fused to recognize Huerta, the treacher-
Gus traitor and slayer of President Fran
cisco Msdero, as the official head of the
Mexican government. And he further In
forms US that with this recognition the
deplorable conditions in Mexico would
have ceased. Evidently Mr. Wooster was
so engrossed with anarchism that he lost
all conception OF time and supposed war
broke out in Mexico when Mr.. Wilson
was inaugurated. He Is in ignorance OF
the many appeals and protests made 10
our government urging action regarding
Mexico and OF the beneficial influence
our fleet had at that critical time when
we took Vera Cruz.
Finally he suggests that we, the most
powerful. fair. and best equipped nation
TO cope with the Mexican situation, back
down and invite the A, b, c governments
OF South America to effect a settlement.
which undoubtedly would involve them
in an endless and unequal war with
Mexico. Unload your troubles on your
weaker brother, Bravo!
