Special to Republican.
Webster City, Feb. 1.-THE action
of the Fort Dodge Commercial Club in
seeking to bring pressure TO bear to
get the Iowa troops home from the
Mexican border has raised the ire OF
the Second infantry, the only Iowa
regiment left on the border. The
action of the Fort Dodge Commercial
club was made public thru webster
CITY. due to the fact that Webster CITY
men received letters from the Fort
Dodge club asking their assistance
in the matter. Similar letters were
written to every town represented d!
in the Second infantry. But
lust as soon as the regiment learned
what was going on, the boys protested
at once. A mass meeting was called
and a letter was prepared by the Fort
Dodge companies as a protest 10 the
club Of their home city.
The Iowa boys hold that they an
swered the call of the president ana
that, while they are anxious to come
home. they would not think of coming
so long as any emergency exists 1or
keeping them in active service.

panies in behalf of the Second in

The Second Iowa is not asking that

iong as there still exists need or
emergency for keeping US here, we are
ready and willing to stay. in spite of
the hardships it may entail. We have
prided ourselves upon our organization
and upon the fact that it has been the
consensus of opinion that the Second
has been the best regiment on
the border, and now to have a move
ment started asking that we be re-
called, is going to place us IN g class
of babies and cutters. We came down
here when ordered and expect to
go home when ordered. We will go
home when the president has said that
our full duty has been done, but not
until then.
ANY effort on the part of any per-

cations to use their influence to hasten
our return has our unqualified dis
