When viii They Go south7

| The dope on when the regiment will
leave for the south is AZ uncertain
as reports from Billygoat Hill the day
| before an election. Probably the real
truth is that United States army Off
GERS disagree in opinion whether the
men should be completely equipped
and seasoned here, or sent down south
for seasoning. The climate is better
here, but on the other hand, it is
argued that it is better to season and
train men where they are to operate.
The officers who have the greatest
interest in finding out when the First
regiment will go south, disagree in
opinion. Most of them think it will
start in a few days; and one Of the
wisest officers in the regiment who
has been in the INNER circle of regi-
mental affairs for many years told
me this morning that he really ex-
pected the First regiment to stay at
Camp Dodge for at least two or three
weeks more.
L company has got e be more
heterogeneous than one would have
guessed when it left Keokuk. About
a score of recruits from Dubuque were
assigned to the Keokuk company
which already contained a few man
from other Iowa cities like Ottumwa,
but they are all coalesced with the
real Keokuk spirit Of all for one and
one for ALL The other day Frauk I.e-

at all.

them showed himself a real man dur
ing the troubles caused entirely by
their superior officers and the condt-
ton Of things. 1t was remarkable
incident when all the men Of l. COM
pany heartily cheered Captain Lebron
In the same minute that they refused
to enlist with him as their captain
not because they loved HIM less, but
because they felt a duty toward Cap
tain Powell.
The action of Captain Powell de-
serves the very highest commenda-
ton. He was self sacrificing for the
good of the service and when the men
of the company spilled the can Of
beans for him, he managed things so
that everybody here was reasonably
satisfied. He expressed his satisfac-
ton with the assurance of the general
commanding that he would be well
taken care of at the very first oppor-
tunity which could be discovered.
At this writing the status is that
he may receive a staff appointment
or. which l imagine he prefers, be
