HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF.
England bad her commissariat
scandal during the Crimean war.
Some of the facts are recited in
Justin McCarthy's "History of Our
Own Times:"
-The winter (1854-55) was gloomy
at home as well as abroad. The
news constantly arriving from the
Crimea told only of devastation
caused by foes far more formidable
than the Russians sickness, bad
weather, bad management.
On shore the sufferings of the army
were unspeakable. The tents were
torn from their pegs and blown
away. The hospitals for
the sick and wounded at Scutari were
in a wretchedly disorganized condi
tion. " In some instances
medical stores were left to decay at
Varna, or were found lying useless
in the holds of vessels in Balaklava
bay, which were needed for the
wounded at Scutari. Great
consignments of boots arrived, and
were found to be all for the left foot.
Mules for the conveyance of stores
were contracted for and delivered,
but delivered so that they came Into
the bands of the Russians, and not
of us. Shameful frauds were perpe
trated in the instance of some of the
contracts for preserved meats. 'One
man's preserved meat,' exclaimed
Punch with bitter humor, 'is another
man'd poison.' " - .
. The similarity of the Crimean
scandal to ,the scandal of our recent
Cuban campaign is striking. In both
wars the commissary departments
were inefficient, and troops suffered
from hunger and exposure. In both
instances, hospital supplies were near
at hand in ships, while the sick and
wounded suffered for want of them.
And then, a3 now, rascally meat
contractors were in a conspiracy to
poibon the defenders of the flag.
THE MACS COME OUT STRONG.
The following very complimentary
editorial, in which Oregon's senator
receives a share cf the laurels, is
clipped from the Washington Post:
There are four Macs in the senate
McBride, McEncry, McLaurin,
and McMillan. Two are Democrats
and two Republicans. But they all
voted for the Xxcaiy, and two of
Ihem McEnery and McLaurin se
cured its latincation. Our citizens
of scotch descent are very solid
members of society. They seldom
get left in any important matter in
which progress, prosperity and pa
triotism are involved. It is a pretty
safe thing to bet on the Scotchman.
He makes it his business to keep on
the winning side, and it is due him
to say that, canny though he may be
inordinary things, he is willing to
Tisk a little, sometimes much, where
bis feelings and convictions are con
cerned, i He is a good, solid stand
by in the hour of need. Hoot, mon!
