The last number of tbe Army and
Navy Journal contains an article that
points out the necessity of discipline
in diet ar.d habit among troops in ac
tiye service. The writer shows that
the regular nrinjr has the advantage
over volunteers because the latter re
sent regulations as to food as an in
terference with their presonal rights
and privileges. Surgeons have little
difficulty in handling regulars, but
find it almost impossible to control
sick or convalescent volunteers. In
the present war certain rules were
prescribed for campaigns in the
tropics. The regular officers insisted
on the observance of these whenever
possible. The volunteers as a rule
laughed at them.
In the civil war the regulars lost a
larger percentage in battle than the
volunteers, but a far less proportion
from disease. Duiing the civil war
831 regulars and 34,582 volunteers
were killed in action, 1,174 regulars
and 48,032 volunteers died of
wounds, and 3,009 regulars and 1S3,
207 volunteers died of disease. The
mortality from disease among the
regulars was 47 per cent; among the
volunteers 75 per cent. Among the
regulars the deaths from disease were
only one-half more than from battle
losses; among the volunteers nearly
two and a quarter times as great.
The men of the regular service are
not 011I3' closely supervised in the
matter of clothing, diet and sanitary
conditions but they are trained to
unruffled acceptance of whatever war
brings. It is the habit of new volun
teers to regard army rations with
hostility and they are encouraged in
this by their friends at home. The
regulars understand that the army
rations are made up of what ex
perience has demonstrated as the best
possible under the the circumstances.
Every man is informed as to what is
his due and as to how to make the
most of what is issued to him. The
volunteers who served through the
civil war were as well informed
on this subject as the regulars, and
they never quarreled with their ra
tions. Among some of the new regi
ments in this war army rations were
regarded as little better than a means
of punishment. Neither officers nor
men looked carefully after their sup.
plies, and too often they wasted food
which tbe regulars would have made
good use of.
The volunteers worried over re
straint, resisted discipline in the
matter of camp duties, gave free rein
to disappointment, and longed for
the luxuries of home. The regulars
were trained to eat what the army au-j
thorities believed was good for them
and to observe regulations to prevent
disease. When it came to fighting,
the volunteers were the peers of the
regulars; when it came to exposure
and sickness, there was no compari
son; the regulars had tbe advantage.
The conclusion of the writer in the
Army and Navy Journal is that the
volunteers are more reckless of life
in camp than they are m battle.
They must be trained to fight off
disease as well as to shoot at enemies;
must submit to discipline in the care
of themselves in camp as ' well as to
discipline in the ranks.
blindness and folly of assassination
are its most striking features. When
the nihilists killed Alexander II, of
Russia, in 1881 they removed the
emancipator of 24,000,000 serfs and
put in his place the cruel and gloomy
bigot Alexander III, who drove the
Jews out of his dominions. A few
days ago, just after the world heard
of the present Czar's proposition to
reduce national armies and to further
the cause of international peace, it
read of an elaborate attempt to mur
der him. The assassination of the
Empress of Austria removes a worthy
and popular woman, without dimin
ishing in the faintest degree the
powers or pretentions of crowned
heads in any part of tbe world or of
helping any person or cause any
where. Even when it has any pur
pose, the assassination of potentates
is the densest sort of political stupid
ity. Globe Democrat.

referring to Lincoln's death, "has
never changed the history of the

British statesman's aphorism was that
assassination never accomplished the
object its authors had in view. Lin

course, as profoundly regretted in
the south as in the north, added to
the troubles and difficulties which his
hare-brained murderer doubless de
