Ex-senator Conkling misjudged the tenn
per of the people of his state when he re-
signed. He no doubt thought he would be
promptly returned by the Legislature, and
that in December he would be able to make
triumphal entry to the city of Washington,
commissioned to wage bitter warfare against
the administration. 1t now turns out that
Conlling cannot secure the adherence
of enough republican members to call eau
Gus The members who sustain the Presi-
dent will not enter the caucus, and conse-
auently will not be bound by its action,
thus making his election impossible, except
by the aid of democrats, which, if secured
would be far from vindication of his course
by the republication party of New York.
No man, however great is wise enough to
dominate party composed, as the republi-
can party is, of the better portion of the in
teligence of the masses, unless he plants
himself squarely oil the broad platform Of
constitutional right. The people demand
that the constitutional prerogatives of the
coordinate branches of the government
must remain unimpaired, and will suffer no
encroachment by one branch upon another,
no matter from what source the effort comes.
This is Enthusiastically the attitude of the
people The desultory firing from such
pop-gun organs as the Press d Courier, is III
the interests of spoils and spoils-seeking
hence we find them unsolicited and unre-
warded, espousing the cause of Conkling, by
berating the President for not surrendering
to the dictation of senators in the matter of
federal patronage. Actuated by no higher
motive than fomenting schism in the ranks
of the republican party, they charge Mr..
Garfield with want of gratitude and hold him
up as political migrate because Mr.. Conk-
ling did what as arepublican, it was his duty
to do in assisting in the Presidents election.
The attempt to degrade the high Office of
President TO that of recording clerk TO re-
cord the will of senator's, is approved simply
because it is a republican quarrel; with no
higher motives of the objects of government
than these the democratic party ask to be
let into the control of affairs. The republi-
can craft has stood a good many severer
and healthier than ever.

THE LOOMS BATTERY REUNION.
For The True Northerner.

For The True Northerner.
Reunions are becoming one of the insti-
tutions of the country. Since the late terri
BILE rebellion companies, regiments, brigades,
divisions, corps and armies have held their
reunions, and only they who wore the livery
OF their country can realize the value of these
gatherings. We see faces we had not seen
for years; we clasp hands once more with old
comrades, and rehearse again the story of the
camp, the march, the bivouac, the battle and
the prison. Bat there is also sad feature to
these reunions: Many an old comrade is abb
sent Name after name is called but there is
no answer Here He sleeps where he fell
in defence of his flag or, perchance, was bro't
home to die. The tear starts unbidden as we
glance over our gathering and fill up the va
cant places from memory's roster.
On Wednesday, the 25th ult., occurred the
sixth annual reunion of the famous LOOMS
Battery, at Coldwater. Can II be the same
company that went out at the commencement

A post of the Grand Army of the Republic
was instituted here on May 20th by Col.

A. NJ. Harrison; Junior Vice-Com., G. G..

1t has membership of about fifty. and holds
its regular meetings on the second Friday
evening of each month.
Decoration day was observed by the peo-
pie of this village and vicinity, III a manner
filled with respect to the memory Of the he
roic dead that lie buried in our cemeteries,
and in which was shown an appreciation of
TIE spirit of patriotism for which they cheer
fully gave up their lives. The exercises were
held under the auspicies of Post No. 10. of
the Grand Army of the Republic. At about
10 o'clock a. IN. the procession, consisting of
about 400 citizens moved out to the Taylor
cemetery, Ill WHICH are buried III soldier
patriots, two of whom were veterans in the
war of 1912. Here the exercises consisted
of the memorial service of the Grand Army
of the Republic, after which A. NJ. Harrison
gave very fine address. The committee
had expected Capt. Allen to deliver the adj
dress, but he was unable to attend and Mr..
Harrison consented to do so to the entire
satisfaction of all who heard him. His effort
did great credit to himself and the occasion.
AT p. m. the Post, accompanied by about
100 citizens, repaired to the cemetery in Ar
lington, about l = miles east of town, and
were there met by a large number of citizens
of that township, where were also number
of soldiers buried, one-half of whom were
veterans of 1912. The services were per-
formed here as at the other cemetery except
ing the address. The floral decorations at
each place were very fine and in great abund-
ance. The day was one not soon to be for
cotton 10y our people.

of the war Then the company was full, the
flag was new and beautiful. The old flag Is
just as dear but 1t Is riddled with shot and
shell and blackened with the smoke of scores
of battles. The boys then were young and
vigorous; now many of them are past the
meridian of life, their hair is becoming FROST
ed with time and their step is not 30 elastic
as then. But their reunion was in every
particular grand affair. The citizens of
Coldwater claim the survivors of the old bat
terry as part of their own family. There
were thirty-seven members present. They
met at Firemen's Hall at 8 a. IN. Minutes of
last meeting read. Letters read from absent
comrades. After which an hour or two was
spent in visiting and at p IN. dinner was
served at the Southern Michigan, where all
the members were seated together. Among
the numerous invited guests were the Mayor
of the city, Gen. Parkhurst, members of the
press, and prominent citizens The Mayor
in short speech rendered the freedom of the
city to the company, which was responded to
by H. Clay Hartwell of Flint. A life-size por-
trait of General Lomis, the property of Mr..
Hartwell, hung on the wall also two of the
Generals old sabres, one of which was pre-
sented to him by the Rev. II. G. Hovey, on
the departure of the battery for the seat of
war, and now the property of Capt. Geo. I.
Nash, of Marcellus, and the other presented
to him by the company at Huntsville, Ala
cornet band the company marched through
the principal streets and to the palatial resi-
dence of the Hon. II. G. Lewis, where an
hour was spent in viewing the treasures of
his magnificent art gallery. The company
then repaired to the shaded lawn and listened
to the reading of the history of the battery,
by II. G. Lewis, addresses by Lieut.. r. G.
Chandler and DR.. J. w. Streeter, all of which
were listened to with marked interest and in
terrupted by frequent bursts of applause
The vets" then marched back to the hotel,
and at shutdown were treated to salute fired
from one of the old guns by company of
artillery called "Loomis Battery Junior
The boys handled the gun well-rehecting
credit on their drill master. AT o'clock the
company again formed and, preceded by the
band, marched to the residence of Lieut.. r.
c. Chandler, where they were banqueted in
princely style by the Lieutenant and his es-
Unable lady. The two hours spent with these
people, who know so well how to entertain, is
one of the brightest episodes of our gather
ing. AT 1870 the boys marched back to the
hotel, where for an hour DR.. Streeter held an
informal reception in his parlor Here the
good-byes were said, the promises exchanged
to write often" and meet again next year if
alive, hands shaken, and the members of the
old LOOMS Battery again " broke ranks" with
the resolution to meet once year and answer
to the roll-call as long as there is one to call
and another to answer. G.

kilns like potatoes, though they acquire an
earthly taste and readily rot on exposure to
the air. Chow to keep apples, as described
and practiced by Mr.. L. M. Lillard and Mr..
J. M. Metcaf, of Danville, KY, has attract
ed considerable attention. They claim to
be successful The method is as follows:
" Having put layer of soft, dried grass in
the bottom of the barrel, I fill the barrel
with apples, and, after shaking them down
and putting in another layer of grass, Ihead
up the barrel and leave it lying out in the
garden or yard Sometimes l cover the
barrels with fodder, but think the apples
keep just as well when the barrels are left
exposed to the weather. OF course the
apples freeze; but, if not disturbed
until they thaw, they are as good
as if they had never been frozen.
I generally remove two or three barrels into
the cellar during thaw, SO as to have them
ready when desired to use them. 1t Is best
to leave the barrel where it was first placed
until you are ready to open it, as the moving
seems to injure the apples some 1t is my
experience that apples put up in this way
keep better during hard winters than mild
ones. Several of my neighbors have kept
apples in this way, though not all with as
great success as myself. Some have put
the barrels under sheds, but in such cases
have met with poor success. The barrel
should not be set upright, but should be laid
on the side, On the ground. The following
method is employed in Russia, and is emf.
nently successful: The fruit is allowed to
freeze hard and solid, and care is taken tc
retain it in this condition until wanted fol
use, when it is taken into the house and the
frost is extracted by soaking the fruit in colo
water. The fruit will not keep after the
thaw by reason of the effect of the frost OIL
the cellular tissues. 1t must be used Al
once. In New England, apples are bar
relied and buried in deep trenches, which
are deep enough to allow the barrels to b
put below the suface of the ground, and art
then covered with dirt 1.-The earth seems tt
qualify the effect of the frost, and at tn
same time keep the fruit SO cool as to pre-
vent the heating and decay that would &C
cur in warmer atmosphere" H.
