The Reformer calls upon the SIF-

to the action CT Hooker Post, g. A. G..
at the Republican rally at this place i'll
August. We have refrained, hereto
fore, from saying anything about this
matter, for the reason, that we regard
ed it as none of our business; Hooker
Post being amenable to its own laws and
regulations and not dependent upon
outsiders f or their Interpretation.
The plain facts are as follows: The
Republican committee invited Hooker
Post to attend the rally, in a body.
The matter was brought, regularly, be-
fore the Post which voted, without a
dissenting voice, to accept the invita-
ton. They accordingly came out and
marched i'll the procession. The only
dissent ever made by any member OF
the Post, so far as we can learn, was
