Same bow some Of our esteemable re-.
publican copieml oraries are finding out
that Cleveland il good deal Of dem
osrat. Only fort-ight ago however
they were saying with much satisfac-
tion that Cleveland would make good
president, bnt that was when they were
elated over the hope and belief that
Cleveland would not turn republicans
out AMI put democrats in. Now, how
ever, the whole scene is changed.
Cleveland is not only turning offensive
partisans out but ne is putting old line
democrats in, hence Cleveland is now a
poor ztick.

TuE REASON way


It seems to be conceded ~ those who
have made the subject study, that tn.
amount of money now covered into the
US. Treasury from collections ,.f inter
nal revenue and duties an Imports nm.
der our unfair and oppressive tariff
laws, IL more than auilicieut TO mYet
the demands OF the government pcnna-
mically saninistered. Eyny one. we
think, will agree 10 the proposition TINT
no government il justified IN ealirciing
greater amount of money from the
hard earnings Of the eoi H. ihpu j. nee.
essary 10 meet the itsi dsnisnds II tb.
gaV.tnnis '. These t~o ptnt0aitions
beiug tter, IL ftiaes that somethiug
should he done Ia reInce The hnt,ieus
taxation which now haug 80 h,mv;iy ul.-
on the people. Revenue refatnets aud
nrotecfionists alike sgree that u rrd.,i-
ton is necessary. hat nt this point
eoaes ia n division amopg Legislators
i" congress. The revenue ,efofipsr.
insist that there should b. reduction
of the duties levied upon importa wl1r
the rroteotipak's insist that the later.
nal revenue taxes must he repealed.
The revenue reformers are in favor Il
maintaining tho internal revenue tnxr.
for thres reasons
First, the principal amount of inter-
nal revenue taxes are collected fam,
whiskey and tobacco which a.. lpxn.l-,.
aud not neceSss'ies Of life.
Second, the whole amount col.ec,ed.
savo che actual expanse Of collsction, IL
paid into the treasury and tho whole
body Of the people is thereby bcne6,,-
ed.
Third, By maintaining the internal
revenue taxes they hope to secure a
reduction of tariff duties. Much Of the
taxes IsVi~l upon the she people by
means ot tariff duties Is paid into the
hsnis ot tho@s persons in this country
who ara engaged in tho production or
~ suufacture Of the articles upon which
the tariff il levied, while tho govern
msnt gets.as We said before. all the inter-
nal revenue taxes. For this reason
tbs great body Of ths democratic party
favor maintaining tho internal revenue
taxes while the great body Of the re-
publican party being in favor Of high
protective tariff arc Ia favor of doing
away with internal revenue taxes 10

The Burial place Of Grant,

Our country has no place like Westminster
abbey whore our illustrious dead may rest to.
gether hence the interest manifested in the
choice of a burial place for General Grant.
In a peculiar sense he belonged to the whole
nation. There is no one spot ass ociated
with him as Mount Vernon is associated with
Washington. Az his life had been given to
the nation il seemed eminently fitting that
his tomb should be upon national ground.
When the Soldiers Home at Washington was
mentioned the spot was recognized by the
people ~ eminently appropriate. II was,
therefore, an unpleasant surprise when II
was announced that Central park in New
York had been chosen. New York though
the commercial metropolis, ia not the polit-
ical centre Of the country. Though of late
II has been the residence of Gen Grant, IL "
not associated in any way with his fame
But more than this the good sense and good
taste of the people, feel the unHtness Of a
great pleasure. ground for the last resting
place Of such man.
After having contemplated the possibility
Of Central park, there is some relief in the
choice that has been made Of Riverside park.
II our great General must be buried in New
York and in park, let it be as far away from
the business of the city as possible and let
the park be a quiet one. When Victor Hugo
was buried, Paris secularzed the Pantheon to
render it fitting place for the remains Of
one who was a life long foe to ecclesiastical
pretensions let US hope that New York may
be able TO make sacred the ground that has
heretofore been devoted TO other uses

HEADo'Rs DEPARTMENT OF VERMONT, q. A. II Il
BURLINaTOH, July 9Jd 1885.
GENERAL ORDERS No. 9.
Our great commander and comrAde 10 no more.
After brave and desperate struggle Of nine weary
months with nvincble foe the hero Of Donaldson
Vcksburg and AppomattoI has for the first time
struck his colors and surrendered 10 the grim ty-
rant Of death" Quietly and without hope OF succor,
he has calmly and uncomplAnngly awaited the result
Of the unequal ceafict.
General Grant isdead but the mem Dry Of his great
deeds will ever live In the hearts Of his comrades OF
the Grand Army. We shall never forget that silent
man, whose demand OF unconditional surrender
became the watchword Of the Union armies. As mod
est as he was brave as unselfsh he was persever
ing, his memory will be cherished by those who
laid down their arms to him upon the field Of Ap.
pomAttox, as the most generous conqueror the world
has ever seen. As q soldier he fought not for con-
quest selfish ambition but for the preservation OF
national existence. Invincble In battle, calm in
defeat, magnanlmous in victory, his name will 90
down TO posterity Of the few truly great cap
tains Of history.
Comrades, as one by one the names of our great
leaders added to the long list of those who have
been "mustered out" let us close up broken
ranks as in the olden time, and march forward
Fraternity, Charity and loyalty, until we, too, shall
be called to answer to our names
on Fame's immortal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac Of the dead.
All post flags will be displayed at half mast unit
after the funeral Of our late comrade
BY Command Of W. L. GREENLEAF,
JAMES B. sCULLY,
Asst ADJ'r.-GEN'L.
