LIEUTENANT COLONEL
YOUNG.

just as we are congratulating
ourselves that we will enter this
war with at least one officer of
high rank, word reaches us that
our own Lieutenant Colonel
Charles Young, the only Army
Officer of color, graduate of
West Point. has been sent to the
hospital for observation. He
is Thought to be suffering with
heart affection.
This is indeed most mfortun-
ate and very inopportmc at this
time If the thought" should
prove a reality, Col. Young will
be retired and with his retire
ment will go a-glimmeriug all our
hopes for one Brigadier General.
We have recently witnessed so
many peculiar stunts pulled off
where we were concerned. that
We may be pardoned ii we enter
tain suspicion that this is hut
another subterfuge 10 hold our
military ASPIRATIONS in check. If
Cot. Young is really affected with
heart trouble. it is passing
strange that the same was not
discovered until now-now when
the prospects are most suspicious
for his promotion to the com.
.maud of one Of the hrigades Of
lcolorcd men that will necessarily
be formed under the seleetivC
draft, If he is not asking to be
retired, why the soieitude for
him at this time when officers are
So badly needed.
1t may he that we are unduly
moved in the matter; We trust
that we are. But ii our fears are
confirmed and he is retired. we
shall pursue policy of watch.
