The First South Carolina was rushed to the Camp Thomas rendezvous with out arms, without tents, -without blankets. At Camp Thomas it wa3 a month before they were equipped. Yet, on parade day, the result cf the in spection was that they took- second place, being outranked by a Massachu setts regiment, men who were the flow er of Boston and who were equipped for months. They outranked com mands frcin Western slates that had been equipp 'd by their own common wenltht: and were drilling with nrm-; months before the- Carolinians. Merit requited that the First should go on to Porto Rice. To avoid sending them, preference being given Western com panies. the First Carolina had to be shift od from the First army corps to th? Fifth. This favoritism has caused much criticism. Doubtful state organ - zat.ons are given the preference.

Now. however, the Cubans under Gomez apparently have determined to forestall the American commanders and are reported to have cceupied several small downs evartia ti;d, by the Spanish and are pressing at tie doors of Hotguip. Causes Concern The matter lias given some concert to our military commanders as this Cu ban effort, if successful, may result in soon bringing our government to the pass whre it must find Itself obliged to recognize the government set up by Gomez in his march, or come to an open i&sue with the insurgents and for- Ftvto t«*t a** * imk/HAV ami h, tt# ? 1 - an. al M-m%gSESHigiiii§Ljmoi * S .
