The Smoky Hill And Republican Union

PLAYED OUT.

The Carney-fraud party has nearly played out. Every effort they have made has only served to sink them lower in the pit. The management of the one hundred days regiment is the crowning act of infamy and degradation. Snubbed by the President, treated with scorn and derision by his tools—such as Sherry and Wood—we would suggest to the Governor the propriety of hunting his hole.

The article below, copied from the Nemaha Courier, is but an individual manifestation of the feeling of the people all over the State:

THE HUNDRED DAYS REGIMENT.

On last Friday nearly all of the men, both volunteer and drafted, who had gone from this portion of the 2d Brigade District to join the 17th Kansas 100-day men, arrived at their homes. The quota of Jackson (which also returned at the same time) we understand was more than full, and the number called for from Nemaha, Marshall, Washington and Pottawattomie counties was on hand, all of whom seemed to have served as much time as they wished in the H. D. Regiment. The Brown county men, all having been drafted, returned before, or were discharged, we suppose, immediately on reaching the rendezvous at Leavenworth. Doniphan's quota—fifty men—we learn from the Conservative of the 27th ult., disbanded at Atchison, upon their way down, principally upon account of their having heard that Sam. Wood was "slated" for the Lieutenant Colonelcy of the regiment. The men from here and the western and Southern portions of the district, returned upon the advice of General Sherry and Mr. Taylor, who, as we understand, believed that the regiment was being run and organized upon a complete Carney-Leavenworth basis, and that the men, if they remained, would not be allowed the choice of selecting their own or company officers, and it is but justice to say that all the men with whom we conversed were of the same opinion. We have recently been afraid that this was the programme and hinted as much last week.
