THE following dispatch from this
city appeared in the delectable
Chicago Times of June 1st:
MINERAL PoINT, Wis, May 3l.-Decora-
tion Day was celebrated as usual in this place,
by little clique Of republican oflce-hoders
and oilicerseekers, who use the day purely
for making political capital, to the utter dis,
gust Of the better class of citizens, who re-
fuse to take part in the ceremonies.
We would not go far from the
Democrat office to place our finger
on the accomplished liar who origi-
mated this contemplate falsehood.
"The better class of citizens will
Of course, appreciate the honor done
them by this nameless slanderer,
and the THOUSANDS who participated
in the decoration ceremonies viii
recognize in the above dispatch the
old rebel dlimus that appeared
during the war in exultations at

If 4th of July celebration is at
tempted in Mineral Point it will be
the duty of every man and woman
in the city to assist either by con-
tribution or by labor in making it a
success, and giving it character.
The object is a high one that calls
forth the loftiest principles in our
nature, and those participating
should feel il duty that they owe
to their forefathers and their coun-
try, rather than pleasure to them
selves. The display of fireworks
and like entertainments, while they
are necessary to give variety to the
occasion should be regarded as of
secondary Importance, and ought to
be the last inducement held ont to
assemble the people. Foreign coun-
tries continue with unrelaxed zeal
to celebrate the anniversary of their
nations birth, though in many it
has gone thousand years into his
tory, and it would exhibit a wonder
full tendency to apathy in the peo-
pie Of this country. if they would
allow it to fall into neglect, or its
object to degrade from that inauger-
ated by our fathers. Mineral Point
and vicinity ought to celebrate the
4th of July, and make it a day of
rejoicing by associating it with the
history of our nations birth ard
remembering the duty we owe to
country.

DECORATION DAY was never more

DECORATION DAY was ne7er more
generally or more Interestingly OBJ
served in Mineral Point than on
Saturday last. Before noon large
concourse of people from the sur
rounding country and neighboring
villages thronged our streets, assem-
bled for the purpose of taking part
in witnessing the ceremonies of the
occasion. At two o'clock, in front
of the City Hall, an imposing pro-
cession was formed in the following
order: 1st, Eifs:and Drum Band;
I'd, Mineral Point Guards; Sd, ex-
Soldiers of late war; 4th,, city
Clergy, Mayor and Aldermen; 5th,
Mifflin Brass Band; 9th, Juvenile
Templars and pupils of City Schools;
7th, Mineral Point Cornet Band;
9Th, Citizens in general. In this
order, amid stirring strains OF sweet
music from the different bands, the
procession moved to the Catholic
cemetery, where, after the floral
offerings were deposited on tho
graves Of soldiers sleeping there,
a prayer was offered by Rev. T.
Kent, appropriate pieces sung by
competent quartette, and most ex-
cellent speech made by Rev. Reid.
Thence the line of march was
taken to the City cemetery, and
after the decoration service was
performed, a few gwell-timed re-
marks were made BY Rev. T. Kent
beautiful poem was admirably
read by Rev. Bushby; several beau
tiful pieces were well sung by the
choir; much good music was fur
nished by the bands; the doxology
was joined in by the people gener-
ally, and benedictiai pronounced
Hon. H. S. Magoon's failure TO be-
present was sore disappointment
to many, but as all were determined
to make the celebration success of
course it was such.
A business meeting was held in
the City Hall Immediately after the
conclusion of the ceremonies. Ell.
Cooper was chosen chairman and
w. Ii. Bennett secretary. The
chief business done was to elect
committees whose duties are to
make suitable and timely arrange
ments for even more imposing and
interesting decoration services next
year.
