COnkling.

The account given in the Sunday Voice
Of the conduct of Senator Conkling at his
visit to Cleveland during the last cam
paign shows him to be the most irritable,
selfish, vsin, arrogant man of whom we
have ever read. 1t says as he was going
up the stairs, accompanied by DIR. Kitch-
en-, the Bohemian Band, engaged for the
purpose, began playing, when Conkling
turned and with look of intense disgust
inquired:
"Can't that damned noise be stopped? 1t
is very distasteful to me-"
DIR. Kitchen at once sent man to stop the
music, while Roscoe continued:
"If there Is one thing under Gods heavens
hate more than another, 1t is q damned old
brass band"
The committee remarked that music had
been the custom at public meetings, and
they had no idea 1t would be distasteful to
the Senator.
As he stepped on the stage and the calcu-
lated applause had quieted down, the proud
New Yorker found fresh cause for irritation.
A low railing had been built around the
stage, and over it were draped number of
national flags, as will be recalled. Conkling
stopped before seating himself, glared con-
temptuously at the decorations, and turning
to DIR. Kitchen said:
ssCan,t that damned railing be taken downf'
The reply was that it was very substan-
tial one and could not be removed without
difficulty. Then the Senator blurted out:
"Why In hell don't you build a pen around
q aman, so that he can Just see over the top of
itf II there Is anything especially disgusting
to me 1t is to be fenced in ;" and he slammed
himself down in q chair like a petulant
school boy.
That night Conkling stayed at the Ken
nard, and about o'clock the next morning
delegation of Columbus gentlemen, who de
sired to speak to him there, and whose time
in the city was limited, called at his room
he was not up, but the visitors raped at thu
door until he responded, by asking,

1se1-1ss1.

Twenty years 1t does not seem so
long, except when considered as previous
to, and viewed across the eminences OF
so many other events that have marked
the two decades since the first summer
of the War.
The maidens of that unquiet period are
matrons now, the surviving parents OF
soldier sons are the venerable and cher
ished aged of to-day, and many Of them
made as genuine sacrifices and bore as
heavy burdens at homo as the young and
strong who served in the field The tear
full orators of the cradle have become
the vehement debaters at High School
rhetoricals, and the profound sages who
revolutionize the world from college ros-
trums. Death and marriage and inevi-
table change have reconstructed all the
homes in the land in twenty years, and 1t
is less strange that in this disintegranon
and loss so many things have passed
away than that all things have not be-
come new.
Avery large number of the men score
of years ago prominent in civil and mill
tary life are gone, many of them dyin g
in the prime of usefulness.
1t becomes more and more valued
memory, the vivid remembrance and per-
sonal knowledge of the events OF the
War. Not to have it at second hand as
a dull, dry fact in history, bnt as an ac-
tual experience, part in the thrilling
seriousness of that great struggle, was In
its way liberal education, discipline
more stern, and perhaps developing as
shapely minds, as long perusal of lifeles'
textbooks sometimes accomplishes.
1t is not q small thing to adjust the ma
tionaI and family life around the SHARP
angles of duty demanded in such al
emergency.

as wen as daring, reverent as well as
fearless, gave themselves and were given,
filing the broken ranks where others had
fallen, until half million lives had paid
the costly price of nations honor.
The summer of 1861 will always be as
sociated with the keen interest and in
tense anxiety of getting used to the
horrors of war. With what Importance
we invested the earlier victories and de-
feats The engagements at Big Bethel,
Cross Lanes and Rich Mountain thrilled
us in their time, and our losses seemed a
profiigate waste of human life; but moth
ing previous to the battle of Manassas
approached the magnitude of many that
followed. Pittsburg Landing, Stone
River and Gettysburg, how suggestive of
the sad experiences of war. The wide
spread bereavement that desolated the
whole country after great battle none
who had the remotest kinship with her
people can ever forget.
1t is due the living soldiers, due the
dead heroes, that we sometimes pause
in these peaceful times bought with their
sacrifice, assured with their blood, and
recall the part Of our history when private
ambition and individual selfishness were
largely obliterated by united struggle
to preserve the Nation.
On this Memorial Day all over the
North, garlands will be laid on consecrat-
ed ground. Middle-sged men and women
will remember when this soldier was laio
here, when that one was brought home,
and the old scenes attending those days
will come back with vividness. They
will think, too, of the other thousands,

God. Jeroboam sought to establish
new system of worship by setting up
two calves, instead of one AS his anees-
tors did in the plains of Sinai, under
standing, as he doubtless did, the natu-
raj tendencies of this peculiar people to
calf worship. For further particulars
of the historical explanations OF the text
please read for yourselves, both in the
Old and New Testaments, and trace this
disposition to worship golden calves all
along the lines of human existence, from
the setting of the types for printing the
first moral statutes upon Sinai's stormy
summit until now, and through all the
gradations and ramifications of society

that gold as an object of worship has
been a moral failure, but as medium
of exchange or standard of value or for
| furnishing the means of subsistence ii
has proved of great service. 1t has also
done much in developing the natural
resources of this great country of ours.
