DEc0RATIOE-DAY.

~ TIE Editor Of The Chicago Tribune:
SIR: It seems to me as though more should
be said in regard to the matter Of Decoration
Day" than there is, and I crave Bpace in your
journal to do 30. And. in doing 30, will
begin by saying that am not one Of the fierce
"Uome-G Gunrd warriors but can point to an
honorable record Of three years service in field
and prison, and have felt tue - iron enter my
soul in the latter, 80 that what may say can
not be attributed to aa7 lack Of experience in
the matter whereof speak.
It seems to mo that this decoration OF the
graves, both in the North aud South, should
cease altogether, for two--if not more-rcasons !:
FirstIt should cease on social view. We
all know that. when any member Of our family
has been guilty Of wrong, has acknowledged
the error, and endeavored to lead correct and
moral life. we do not continually or an-
nually remind him of his mlshehavior By
eome more OF less public ceremony, especially il
NC desire to hive in harmony and peace in tho
same family with the errinG brother.
And 80 it seems to me that 1t is not necessary
for North and South to ba continually reminding
each other OF the ' late unplcasantncss by this
yesrly ceremony OF decoration, If We are to live
Ia the same political family with each other. II
it must be done, let it be done by private and
loying hands,
1t does seem TO U8 LQAt L4d Uouet H1ibAt 10

soldiers, Of whom We have Jsao left None
honor the memory OF the gallant dead who're
lives went out amid tho terrible
carnage Of field md trench, and the
not less sad and mournful hospital aud

chow our admiration in a practical, loyal. and
loving way, by consecrating the amount Wa would

the gallant dead and to the - Soldiers Homes !"
which We have in our midst2

At the late session of the State
Grange of Patrons of Husbandry of
Michigan, the following resolutions
We're adopted, which, as giving the
aims and objects OF the Order in an
authoritative shape, and from an i'm
portant representative body, are of
much interest:
Whereas, The experience of society
has long since provedthat all great en-
terprises in all the various departments
of business growing out of the wants
of communities are best promoted and
more fully developed by the associated
effort Of those interested in the same
calling; and
Whereas, Such association Of effort
has been brought to the aid of every
important branch of business in our
county eXceptagrloulture therefore,
Resolved, That we, as farmers of
Michigan, regard the organization of
the order of Patrons of Husbandry rs
u movement of vast Importance, not
only to the interest of the great pro-
ducing class of our country, but also in
it's ultimate and highest objects, de-
signed and calculated to bless society
at large.
Resolved, That wo understand the
objects of this organization to be,
First-The bringing together in
friendly and intelligent association of
that large class of society, the farmers,
who have in all the past lived compar-
atively isolated, bringing with them
their wives, their sons and their daugh-
tiers, thereby promoting the higher
social culture with all its beneficent
results.
Second-To encourage the intellec-
tual improvement of those connected
with the organization not only by the
discussion of the numerous questions
purely agricultural, the proper under
standing of which underlies our great
est success in the filling of the soil, but
also that we may be more thoroughly
acquainted with the great and import
ant duties and obligations devolving
upon us, and growing out of the rela-
tions we abstain to society, and also
with what are our rights and response
bilities as sovereign citizens of free
government.
Third-The advancement of our pc
cuniary interests by, first, buying more
directly from the manufacturer and
selling to the consumer, thus avoiding,
as far as practicable, the payment OF
large and unnecessary commissions;
and, second by encouraging the estab-
lishment, rs far as possible, of all the
various branches in our midst, thus
bringing market for our surplus pro-
ducts to our own doors.

MODE OF DRAWING.

There will be upon the stage two glass
wheels, the contents OF which can be seen
by the audience. A committee, consisting
of three eminent citizens in no way connect
ed with the management, having first made
an accurate count and examination, will
place in the larger wheel 1000 leather tags,
cut by the same die, exactly alike, and hav-
ing numbers on them, from to 1900. CORE
spending to the number of all the tickets
sold. A similar, eommittee-having first
examined, counted, folded and sealed up in
40 square boxes, precisely alike, as many
slips of paper, on which are printed the 40
gifts of denominations from $40 to 81 ,000-will
then place these 40 sealed boxes containing
the gifts in the smaller wheel. Both wheels
will then be turned until their contents are
thoroughly mixed. A blindfolded boy,
under Is years of age, will then draw from
the larger wheel one of the tags, and, hold
ing 1t up in full view of the audience, It's
number will be called loud enough for all to
hear by the crler appointed for this purpose;
the tag will then be passed to a committee OF
three distinguished oilisens, who will say
whether the number has been rightly called.
1t will then be passed to q registrar, who will
file it upon copper wire prepared for the
purpose.
The number of the tag THIS drawn, cried,
proven and filed will lie recorded by three
clerks, in separate books. prepared for the
purpose.
A bindfolded girl of similar age will then
draw from the smaller wheel one of the
sealed boxes, which will be opened and the
gift taken out, unfolded and held up TO the
view of the audience.
The amount of the gift thus drawn will
then be cried, recorded by the three clerks,
and the paper filed by the registrar with lis
tag upon the wire,
Tho gilt thus drawn will belong to the tick
ct bearing the same number as the tag
drawn Immediately before 1t. Thus this pro-
cess will continue until 40 numbers are
drawn from the larger wheel, and oil the
boxes from the small wheel. And the 40
gifts thus drawn, ranging from $40 to 81, QUO,
will be paid to the parties who present the
tickets having numbers thus determined by
lot to be entitled them.
After the drawing Is over, the large wheel
containing the tags will be placed In the
hands of committee chosen by the audi
ence, who can examine for themselves and
see whether all the tickets sold were repre-
sented by tags with corresponding numbers.
