SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR.
By good fortune the legislature of Michigan was in session at the time when war with Spain on account of the Maine incident and on general principles seemed inevitable, and with great patriotism and promptness enacted such legislation as was suggested by the military department in view of the threatened war, and provided ample revenue to enable the governor and his military advisers to give Michigan her proper place in the conflict should such war occur.
On April 23, 1898, President Mckinley issued his proclamation calling for 125,000 volunteers to engage in the war with Spain. Michigan's quota of this number was 4,104 to consist of four regiments of infantry of 1,026 officers and men each. On the following day general order No. 5 was issued from this office for the mobilization of the entire Michigan National Guard at Island Lake, April 26, 1898. Adjutant General Irish assumed command under direction of Governor Hazen S. Pingree, and the work of reforming the Michigan National Guard to meet the exigency of the call made upon it by the president was under- taken. This was accomplished by assigning the second independent battalion to the first infantry and the first independent battalion to the second infantry, and accepting eight companies from different localities in the state to complete the third and fifth regiments respectively. The regiments thus organized were designated as 31st, 32d, 33d and 34th Michigan volunteer infantry, following in numerical order the infantry regiments of the civil war.
May 10, 1898, the enlistment and muster of the 31st was completed, and, in the service of the United States, May 15, 1898, under command of Col. Cornelins Gardener, left Island Lake for Chickamanga Park, Ga. The 32d was mustered in May 14, 1898, and on the 19th, under command of Col. Wm. T. MeGarrin departed for Tampa, Florida.

MILITARY DEPARTMENT.
The 33d and 34th were mustered in May 20 and 25, respectively, Colonels Chas. L. Boynton and John P. l'etermann commanding. These regiments left Island Lake May 28 and June 6, 1898, for Camp Alger, Va.
May 25, 1898, the president issued his second call for troops, of whichi Michi- gan's quota was one regiment of infantry of a maximum strength of 1,272 men and 47 officers. There was much delay on the part of the government in determining the exact strength of this regiment, and it was not until June 10 that Camp Eaton at Island Lake was prepared to receive the volunteer com- panies of which this regiment was to be composed.
July 11, 1898, Adjutant General E. M. Irish was commissioned colonel of the 35th regiment, Michigan volunteer infantry, and Quartermaster General White received his commission as its lieutenant colonel. The organization of this regi- inent from new material was pushed rapidly to completion, and it was mustered into the United States service July 25, 1898. On September 14, under orders from the war department it moved from Island Lake to Camp Meade, Pa.
It is to be noted that under the first call for troops the four Michigan regi- ments were accepted by the government.with a maximum strength of 293 less than the standard organization, and on June 10, 1898, orders were issued and offi- cers detailed to recruit these four regiments to the full strength of 1,272 enlisted men each. This was rapidly accomplished, but on account of the exigency of the movement against Santiago which called the 33d and 34th Michigan into the fighting line, about 500 enlisted men properly belonging to these organizations did not participate in that glorious achievement.
The 33d and 34th Michigan formed part of the expedition under command of General Shafter against Santiago, and bore their full share of the hardships and dangers of that expedition.
The Michigan naval reserves, consisting of eleven officers and two hundred and seventy men, were detailed on the auxiliary cruiser Yosemite and saw service at Havana, Santiago, Guantanamo and San Juan de Puerto Rico, in all situations winning the approval of the regular naval authorities for the admir- able manner in which they discharged their duties, and winning the respect and gratitude of Michigan for the honor conferred upon the state by their conspicu- ous gallantry in actual warfare. Where all were brave and all were patriotic, comparisons would be invidious.
The 31st regiment of Michigan sailed on the U. S. transport " Chester," Janu- ary 25, 1899; arrived at Cienfuegos, Cuba, February 1, and embarked on the transport "Thomas," April 12, 1899, arriving at Savanna, Ga., April 17, 1899, hav- ing served at garrison duty two montlis and twelve days on Cuban soil, and was mustered out of service April 17, 1899.
The 32d and 35th Michigan regiments were quartered in southern camps, anxiously waiting orders to go to the front, but the sudden termination of the war prevented them from seeing service on foreign soil.
The forces that went into the war with Spain, from Michigan, were actuated by the highest motives. They came from every employment and walk of life, yet none entered that service without a sacrifice. All left peaceful homes with com- fortable surroundings and sure sources of income to risk their lives in battle or in camp in response to the call of duty and patriotism. Some were killed in battle, others died of diseases incident to life in camp under new and untried conditions. Some came home comparatively unharmed, while others, and very many others, came bringing with them the seeds of disease and infirmities from

which they will always suffer. There is but one proposition to make. The people of Michigan in common with the people of this great nation owe a debt of grati- tude and love to those who in any way represented them in the glorious contest for humanity so happily and successfully ended by our treaty of peace with Spain, and we should not forget now or hereafter any of the obligations imposed upon us by this debt.
