Mr.. JOHN S. KoUNTz, as Commander
ln-Chief of the G. A. r., and in view of
the country at this time being agitated
by a great political contest, reminds
comrades that the G. a. R. is strictly
non partisan. The law upon this sub
jeet is plain and emphatic:
No officer or cOmrade of the Grand
Army of the Republic shall in any man.
ner use the organization for partisan
purposes. and no discussion of partisan
questions shall be permitted at any of
its meetings, nor shall any nomination
for political Office be made" (See Chap.
5, Art XI., II. and II.
The wearing of Grand Army badge
or uniform at a political meeting, says
Commander Kountz, is in the highest
degree improper; and comrades should
refrain from SO offending against the
spirit of our rules and regulations.

The fail of a big Chicago

brought out the information
that Chicago lard was COM
posed of tallow, cotton seed
oil, butter and anything else
at hand when the kettles
were hot. A Michigan re-
tail grocer who was loaded
up discovered that all his
customers avoided his lard.
All of a sudden his tin pals
disappeared and he exhibited
tiny little crooks in tn cir
places, which went off like
hot-cakes.
