A STORY IN STONE.

The celebration now in progress at Dayton
o., eliminating to-day in the unwilling and
dedication Of the fine monument erected in
honor of the memory Of the dead soldiers of
Montgomery county, is one to which no patri
otto citizen can take exception. After nearly
twenty years Of peace, the citizen soldiery and
the people generally Of that region meet in
common, actuated by the purest patriotism
and intent only on commemorating those
deeds that made possible the perpetuity of this
Nation. In honoring the patriotic dead they
honor themselves. In thus recalling the valor,
the patriotism and the incompatible spirit of
self-sacrifce that actuated those to whom the
monumental shaft is to be dedicated, they in
still the same virtues into the hearts Of the
oncoming generations, and give additional
guaranty that the institutions and principles
50 nobly founded and so heroically defended
will be perpetuated.
In all that has been said and done and
thought at Dayton, on this occasion, nothing

the country or to any Of its people. The same
peace that dwells in the valley Of the Miami
prevails along the Shenandoah and the Ten
nessee The tramp Of the armed soldiery no
longer echos in the streets of the busy Ohio
towns nor in the villages of Georgia. The
ring Of the anvil and roar of the furnace have
drowned the sounds Of war, and the prosperity
of peace has rebuilded the ruins of shattered
industry. The marble veteran that surmounts
the tapering shaft at Dayton looks southwark
ever, but not with the passion of war in his
fixed eyes, In no hostile attitude, but with
arms at an eternal ''at rest, there is no hint
of hatred or strife, but harbinger and
pledge Of peace and fraternity.
In the presence Of the memory of the events
that made such memorial patriotic neces-
sity, there ought to be that solemnity Of feel
ing that the contemplation of such mighty is
sues and signal triumphs must compel. There
is no room for bitterness now. For twenty
years the grass has been growing on the graves
of all who fell in battle. But while
there is no call to arms, there is still an inn
peratiye duty before us all, victors and van
pushed. While the wounds made by the
late war will heal and be forgotten, the awful
lesson it taught can never be safely ignored.
AS people we must never again forget that

You're Mr. Atkinson, of Baltimore had a

EDITOR TINES:

EDITOR TINES:
As citizen Of Superior
| come to the front, not as a candidate,
but as an advocate of political reform,
and ask the cooperation of all our in
telligent voters to sustain me. Flee
ton day is near at hand, when We will
be called upon to exercise the duties
of intelligent citizenship. Local ad
ministration should receive our most
careful attention, for our future as a
town, depends entirely on its local
government.
Candidates, like buzzards, are fore
ing themselves onto the political bat
tletield; they are framing slate COM
posed of Tom, Dick and Harry, with
out consulting the voters of this COM
mnnity. This is wrong principle in
politics, and leads to corruption in
municipal affairs. 1t is time to call a
halt, and | for one am opposed to
compulsory candidates.
Office seekers as general rule, have
al unseen and selfish motive in view.
Are we ready to admit that we are
nought but voting cattle? The office
should at all times seek its man, and
not the man the office. An express
ion of the public will, in open caucus,
is the true method of conducting our
affairs. Let the will of the majority
nominate rs well as elect its own men,
for 1.-The voice of the People, is the
voice of God. Let US call caucus
and feel Of the public pulse; it is the
only true way, and must be adopted;
it is Il matter of considerable cheek"
to force yourself upon the public. Be-
sides all this, the independence of the
voter should stamp such conduct with
condemnation, The man who tries to
rise to office on the misfortune and de-
pravity OF his own nature and that of
Others, by showing no better qualifca-
ton than furnishing the free whisky,
is not worthy of my support, and de-
serves to be defeated. Hoping that
something may be done, and caucus
called, remain respectfully, the
friend of the people.
