NJ R. DoDsoN's RESPONSE.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: After listen
ing to the appropriate and patriotic
address. which we all have been pleas
ed to hear, it is now beyond the COM
pass of words, for me to express my
sentiments at this moment. But speak
ing for the organization it Is with pride
and with pleasure that accept in its
behalf, and in the name of the Plumed
Knights of Missouri, this elegant and
beautiful Banner. Permit me ladies,
as representative, to thank you. We
assure you that we appreciate your
kindness, your encouragement and
your patriotic devotion to our prlnci.
piles and to our cause. The banner just
presented, is not only elegant and
beautiful. but is to the eye'ot the true
patriot, an American banner. Patri-
otic indeed; a grand symbol of purity
OF durability and of truth. Suggestive
of patriotic deeds! 1t symholizes past
victories and Is indicative of future
success 1t represents that golden
chord Of friendship and Union. Its
stars are fixed in brighter sky than
overhangs the thrones of Europe. In
word 1t seems to be fit emblem of
Of American idea and American prin-
clples. 1t is, perhaps more beautiful
when we know that it came from the
hands of those, who have performed
and are still performing an important
part, in the affairs OF the nation. From
those whose deeds of patriotism in
times gone by, were as bright and
honorable, as those of Americas noblest
patriots. America has not been with
out her noble women. During the
dark hours of our country's peril, they
were ever ready and willing to give
encouragement and eomfert to those
who were struggling for their coun-
try and their eountry's rights. The
mothers and daughters OF the revolu-
tion wele patriotic and brave. During
those years Of darkness and despair,
many and most of them were left alone.
Left to defend themselves and their
homes. Left, not in the safe repose of
the law, nor surrounded by civilization
but left in the toundless forests, which
were wild, barbarous and chaotic. Left
in the boundless forests, where lived
and wandered the red savage. who was
at that time the friend of the still more
savage Briton. Those noble women
took care of the home, they titled the
so.l, and gathered the harvest. But to
speak of the services and the patriotic
deeds of 10y al women since the Revo-
luton, would require a volume. 1t
cannot be told in single speech. We
therefore accept this banner in the
name of the patriotic women of Ameri-
ca We also accept it in the name of
the Great Republican party, and the

Every struggle which has called forth
the patriotism Of man, has found the
patriotism of woman ready to aid
him. In the war for the retention Of
The union, which the blood of Revolu-
tionary fathers had bought FOR us,
ladies quit their homes of ease and
comfort and hastened TO offer their SER
vices In the hospitals where tue sick and

who remained at home sent words of
encouragement to the soldiers who
were risking their lives for the blessed
privilege which American humanity
now enjoys universal freedom of pee
pie without regard to color. In this
bloodless contest now raging danger
equally as great as the darkest cloud
of war threatens our country. AS our
patriotic mothers before us have come
to the aid of soldiers in the past. we
now with all the encouragement we
are able to give hasten to aid as best
we can in the coming conflict. AS in

Tho American delegates have been hos
pitably entertained at Berlin, and treated
with special distinction. Mr.. Stanley has
been the lion of the occasion, and Prince
Bismarck seems TO have made pet of
him. The largest schemes of dealing
with tho Congo question have boon intro
duccd by the American delegates, and
their opinions have been received with
hattering tokens Of interest and respect.
All these things arc gratifying In their
way, but sober minded Americans cannot
conceal their apprehensions nor be de-
luded by compliments, Prince Bismarck
seems to have inveigled the United States
into taking part unnecessarily in Eu-
ropesn transactions and establishing a
precedent at variance with the Monroe
doctrine.-New York Tribune.

nfz CURRENT COMMENT.

The tramp nuisance grows ns idle men
become more numerous. Counties near
the large manufacturing oonters and
along the lines Of principal railroads are
harassed beyond endurance. How to
treat the difficulty lisa question of serious
moment, increased by the fact that the
wanderers are rather above tho ordinary
tramp. Many of the mon are not con-
firmed loaiers, but willing to earn liv-
ing If given tho opportunity. II is worth
the attention of authorities whether this
is not a fitting opportunity to undertake
public improvements. Some have
adopted this plan with good result, and
IL is worthy Of more general consid-
Grafton. By some such method the tramp
question might be advantageously solved.
