NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY
AIPPED UP THE BACK
FOURTH REGIMENT SEVERELY
SCORED BY ARMY INSPECTOR.
OFFICERS GET BULK OF ROAST
G
“Ignorant” and “Inefficient” Are Some
of the Terms Used. A Picture
of Slothtulness, He Says.
The regular army officer who re
cently inspected the companies of
the Fourth Infantry, Georgia State
Troops, hands out a bunch of
scorching criticisms in his report
to the war department. It is the
severest ‘‘rip up the back’ the
Fourth has ever received, says the
Albany Herald.
The officer making the report is
Capt. Car!l Richmann of the Seven
teenth United States infantry. Cap
tain Richmann is one of the mostl
efficient officers in the regular army.
He was sent by the war department
as the representative of this gov-l
ernment to the front in Manchuria
during the Jap-Russ war, and has
made other similar expeditions. He
is a tactician of high standing and
noted for his thoroughness, says '
The Herald. |
Colonel Commended. !
The report commends Col. R. L. I
Wrylly for thoroughness and enthu
siasm. His regiment is declared to'
be in bad shape, but it is inferred l
that the commanding officer will do
a great deal for its improvement.
One paragraph sets forth the fol
lowing, which is like an oasis in a
desert: 1‘
“The enlisted men are of the very i
best material, but they lack train
ing, for lack of officers capable of§
training them. The regiment labors
under a number of disadvantages.
It is located in'a district which is
being rapidly settled, and where
much money is being made. As a
result the people do not take time
to think of the militia, and there is
so much movement among the
young men that the company com
manders find it difficult to keep the
companies up to the minimum legal
strength.”’
Ofticers Ineflicient.
The report hands out this lemon
to the officers, collectively, of the
regiment:
‘A majority of them are untrain
ed and ignorant, and, therefore, un-

able to train their men. Unfortu
nately, however, many add to their
shortcomings the grave fault of in
difference. Their ambition does
not seem to rise any higher than to
get military rank by election to
commissioned rank, and to acquire
a uniform and equipments at the
. . |
expense of the state. They are ig
norant of the laws and regulations,‘
because they do not read them. The
records are in bad shape, etc., and, |
worst of all, no one seemed asham-‘
ed of the dirty and neglected condi-“
tion in which everything was found.
The condition of the companies re
. \
flects the charactersof their officers.
The men appeared in badly soiled
uniforms, soiled leggings, soiledl
cartridge belts, in hats washed out
of shape and perched on the backs
of their heads, equipments not fitted
to the men, who were untrained and
uninstructed, and unable to execute
any movement correctly. Some
companies were unable to execute
any movements whatever; rifles
rusty and dirty;the whole a picture
of slovenliness and slothfulness, a
travesty of everything that is neat,
dignified and soldierly. The strict
ures contained in this paragraph do
not apply to companies B and M
(Moultrie Rifles and Fitzgerald
Guards).
The Fort Gaineg; Columbus, Tif
ton and Dawson companies are giv
en particularly severe roasts. Some
of the captains are branded as "ig
norant and inefficient.”” Some of the
companies are deemed valueless.
The regimental band is severg]y
criticised, and gratification is eéx
pressed that it is tobediscontinued,
promise of the colonel commanding
having been given to that effect.
The Albany Guards, which were
recently reorganized and are now in
probtaion, are characterized as

APPALLING DEPRAVITY.
Helpless and Deformed Girls Taught
Vice from Babyhood.
That is an appalling story of human
depravity which comes from the Cen
tral New York Institute for Deaf
Mutes at Rome, N. Y. The facts
stated in brief are that the helpless
deformed female wards of the state
were taught vice from their babyhood
by some of the persons who were en
trusted with their charge and educa
tion, while the other authorities of
the institution looked on in silence
and acquiescence. The story is one
caleulated to skake fath in human na
ture.
The full story of the outrageous
abuses perpetrated on the inmates of
the institution is such, it is said, as
can never be written; (it can only be
outlined.) For twenty years a fiend in
human shape named Professor Forte
Lewis Satiney was permitted to work
his will among the human lambs com
mitted to his care, and when exposure
| finally came he was allowed to escape
without punishment.
Cured Hay Fever and Summer Cold.
A. J. Nusbaum, Batesville, Indiana,
writes: ‘‘Last year I suffered for
three months with a summer cold so
distressing that it interfered with my
business. 1 had many of the symp
toms of hay fever, and a doctor’s
|prescription did not reach my case,
and | took several medicines which
seemed to only aggravate my case.
Fortunately I insisted upon having
Foley’s Honey and Tar inthe yellow
package, and it quickly cured me.
My wife has since used Foley’s Honey
‘and Tar with the same success.”

BRYAN HIMSELF WROTE PLANK
ON WHICH ROOSEVELT ACTED.
Twelve Thousand Enthusiastic Peo
p'e Wildly Cheered the Nebraskan
When He Started South.
A tremendous ovation was tendered
William J. Bryan by 12,000 persons
in St. Louis Tuesday night. When
he stepped upon the platform the spec
tators arose, waved flags and shouted.
The ovation centinued four minutes.
Motoining for silence with a palm leaf
fan, Mr. Bryan said in part:
“] want to show you it is better to
trust democratic principles to the
demoecratic party than to trust them
to the one man whose party denounces
him for following them. I want to
remind you that the most popular act
of Mr. Roosevelt's administration was
his bringing peace between two na
tions. He settled the coal strike af
ter a loss of $99,000,000 to employers,
employes and the public. It was a
grand act, [ applauded him for it.
But where did he get the doctrine—
in the repubiican platform? No: he
got it from the democratic platform,
iand I.wrote the plank myself. ’
| “If the president can become the
only popular man in the republican
party because he does something spas
modically along demoecratic lines
what would be the popularity of the
man who does something and has al
ways been a democrat? Where did
Mr. Roosevelt tind his mandate for
his action regarding the rate bill?
2 \
He had to go to the democratic plat
form. The law was suggested by the
democratic party. i
T shall soon have occasion to talk
on railroads again, but to-night I
want to impress it on you that the;
railroad question solution was t.he%
product of the democratic party. |
“The president has now been in of—%
fice almost five years. How many
trust magnates are inthe penitentiary?
We have a great many trusts in this
country violating the law. I ask you
to figure out on the basis of the num
ber of trust magnates imprisoned dur
ing the past five years how many’ gen
erations it will take to solve the trust
question. |
“If these things prove to you that
democratic forethought is better than
republican forethought, wouldn’t it be
better to vote for democrats than for
those who have followed at the tail
end of the democratic procession?’’
St. Louis was the firt stopping point
in Mr. Bryan’s itinerary of the south,
which will end in Indian territory late
this month.
Mr. Bryan will be in Atlanta to
morrow, September 20.
DISPENSARY QUESTION UP.
It Caused Discussion in the Baptist
Convention at Covington.
In the Baptist convention which has
just been in session in Covington the
report of the temperance committee
provoked a spirited discussion. The
%report. contained a reference to the
dispensary as a step in the advance
of prohibition. The question came
up as to whether christians could
choose between dispensary or bar
rooms.
Lively speeches were made by Judge
Hillyer and Dr. John E. White for it.
and by Dr. J. K. Pace and Rev. E. R,
r’endleton against the dispensary.
All reference to the dispensary was
stricken out before action was taken.
“It’s an ill wind that blows nobody
good,” says an old saw; and, while
slaves of ‘“My Lady Nicotine” the
world over have just cause to regard
the insurrection in Cuba with fear and
trembling, American tobacco growers
in the Sunny South are lh(ely to reap
a rich profit in consequence. A mo
ment more deadly in its effects on the
tobacco industry could not have been
chosen for the uprising. Scme of the
choicest tobacco in the world is raised
in the Pinar del Rio province of Cuba,
where the revolutionists are holding
forth with an earnestness which makes
it impossible for the tobacco growers
to attend to the now fully ripened
crop. A few days more and it will be
hopelessly ruined. Last year’s crop
was short because of heavy rains in
the island, which not only ruined the
‘unharvested crop, but rendered large
jareas of the finest tobacco lands unfit
for tillage. This fact accounted, in
large measure, for the very satisfac
tory prices received for the American
product. Reserve supplies were very
much depleted, and if the present Cu
ban crop is not forthcoming at the
proper time, prices for domestic grades
are likely to go sky high. The situa
tion is viewed with particular anxiety
by Washington cigar manufacturers
and dealers, whose trade demands the
finest qualities of tobacco in large
quantities. Much of this comes from
the famous Vuolto Abayo district, and
if the insurrection should extend to
that province, the results are too dire
for contemplation. Very little tobacco
from Cuba has been received by local
manufacturers this year, and they de
clare that all appeals for a fresh sup
ply are vain.
