Articles from the same edition concerning someone named IAMS. I haven't found any further information on what he supposedly did that caused this uproar.

Vickie What we got to say about STREATOR having IAMS, the soldier, used as is told in the news columns? Don't know all about it. Perhaps STREATOR wanted to signalize himself in some way. In the late war, a soldier in camp calling for cheers for Jeff. DAVIS would have been laughed at, ignored as a fool, or given a good kicking by one of his comrades. A brigade of infantry would not have been turned out to shave the clown's head at all. STREATOR is six feet and five inches high, but he isn't half as big as he looks. Perhaps IAMS is just as good a man in battle as there is in the regiment. What a soldier does, not what he shoots (sic) of with mouth when off duty, is a matter of much concern to his commanders. Resolved, that this convention strongly condemns the brutal and inhuman punishment ordered by General SNOWDEN and Col. STREATOR on Private IAMS, and we call on Governor PATTISON to make a thorough and impartial investigation in this matter ans see that such brutality is justly punished.--Allegheny County Democratic Convention. STREATOR is a Democrat. The Review says STREATOR is an "epauletted barbarian." No; in actual war a barbarian would hunt up and torture a real enemy.
