AUG ), 1885.
The water in our har5or and bay have been
remarkably calm for several days, but we know
that underneath the strong current flows on in
Its appointed course, and as we entered our
Headquarters this bright, cool Summer morn
ing and found the National Secretary at her
post quietly earnestly reading up the many
letters that every mail brings to her desk, we
could not but compare the quiet air of the office
10 the placid surface of the water we had just
sailed across, for so surely as the tide GIBBS and
flows, so steadily the work of our Order goes
on. Echos come to us from near and far of the
Union services held by Posts and Corps COM
memorative of the life and services of our Ia
mented Gen. Grant, and we can but hope that
though the cause of the many gatherings is
that OF a common sorrow, yet the lessons taught
thereby will serve to unite us more firmly to-
gether in the great work before u.s. LET US
work while the day lasts, for the night COM
eth on apace." The comrades are falling on
every hand, not only the officers who led our
armies on, but the boys all along the line-the
brave, strong and true.
GOOD CHEER FROM MISSOURI.
In a letter from the Secretary of the Depart
ment of Missouri, Mrs. Mary NJ. Stark, We get
bit OF sunshine. She says Frank z. Blair
Post room, ST. Louis, Mo-, land it is also the
Corps room,) is very artistically and deliberately
trimmed Not long since Frank P. Blair Corps,
No. d, surprised the IOSC Dy decorating the
chandeliers with red. white and blue tarletan
and placed four beautiful flags upon the center
chandelier; also covered the pictures with
tarletan. The Post was very much pleased at
the surprise of the handsomely trimmed room
that awaited them upon going to their regular
Post meeting, as the ladies had worked so
quietly that it was a genuine surprise. A let
ter was given the Commander from the Corps
President presenting the decorations, for which
vote OF thanks was unanimously passed by
the Post, and letter expressive of this was
sent the President, Mrs. ROsaie Gandolfo.
PREPARE FOR WINTER.
As many of our members all over the coun-
try are spending a season at the mountains and
seashore, or among the quiet fields, seeking
needed rest we hope that leisure hours may be
filled by making the many and beautiful arti-
Giles which in our Winter sales and fairs bring
the means to carry comfort and cheer to many
needy homes. Sisters, don't forget the little
boys and girls to whom good, warm mittens,
stockings and neckties would be Godsend
when the icy blasts of Winter are upon Us.

Der of your regiment MS well as the prisons for
Matters of the greatest importance to members Of
this association and to all ek-prisOners of war will
come before this convention for its action, and
among these not the least in Importance which will
claim the attention of comrades, is what is known
as the Elk Union Prisoners of War Pension Bill"
now pending before Congress.
While under the rules and regulations of the
association but regularly accredited delegates
entitled to active participation and vote in the
meetings, all associations of prisoners not affili
ating with the National AssOciaionfare invited to
send representatives, and all exUnion prisoners
cordially invited to be in attendance and advise
with on these matters of vital importance, in the
success of which we all have mutual interest.
1t would not be improper for me to say that in
some sections the question of IA reorganization of
the association that would admit to full and equal
participation in the business meetings of delegates
from all exUnion Prisoners of War Associations is
being favorably considered and will probably come
before this meeting for action.

use ell the power lodged in their hands
to insure the success of their candidate
for governor. In conversation with
democrats in Richmend the gentleman
alluded to was informed by them that
the election for governor would not

colored people from the polls

polls are closed. 1t is not likely, how.
ever, that the republicans, under the
leadership of Wise, Malone, Cameron,
Rfddleberger, Blair, and other shrewd
leaders and brave men, will permit
themselves to be defeated by such bold
and systematic fraud as the democrats
have in contemplation. The campaign
in the state will begin next week on

and aggressive. They are convinced
that the democrats will attempt to use
the eleotlou machinery to further their
fraudulent designs, but republicans
are encouraged by the fact that
four years ago when the bourbons
were IN full possession of the state, and
when they were stronger and better
organized than now, their candidate for
governor. John W. Daniels, was beaten
by Cameron, the present governor,
aud that a Legislature was chosen that
sent Malone and Riddleberger to
the United States senate. At that time
q large number of republicans refused
to cooperate with Malone and Cameron,
but now the readjusters are merged in
one united party, and are quite conf
dent that they will achieve victory in
November. In any event, however, the
bourbons will not be permitted to dis.
franchise the colored voters either by
forcibly excluding them from the polls
or by tampering with their ballots after
they have been cast.

Considerable anxiety over the move
ments of grasshoppers is expressed
through the eastern papers. Official in
vestigation demonstrates that the pests
are at work in northwest Dakota and
Montana and they have also been OBJ.
served flying over eastern Iowa. North
ern Illinois is being subjected to thei,
ravages and the state entomologist re-
ports that fall wheat is likely to suffer
from their depredations. We are facing
a possibility of another series Of grass
hopper years. Old Dakotaians know
the full significance Of this threatened
danger. It means the annihilation O
crops. We had hoped that the day O.
these destructive pests was over, bn,
the signs are not at all encouraging
Another year will confirm or diesipate
our fears.
