General Grant Rapidly Nearing His End.

General Grant Rapidly Nearing His End.
From the Pioneer Press March 81. The
crisis has been reached in Gen. Grants
sickness, and the worst is now looked for at
an early moment, 1t is mot a question: of weeks
or of days, but of hours. There can be no
doubt that the end is rapidly approaching.
Monday evening DR.. Douglass was asked if
he thought the end would come during the
night. He said: I think not; but the general
is now passing through stages incident to the
disease, and, frankly, l cannot tell il the end
will come tonight The general is growing
weaker and weaker. l cannot tell much about
Zen. Grant. His will is 70 powerful he may
be suffering what he does not show. Never
could patient be more heroic while suffering
such intense agony. In my experience i never
saw a man 80 thoroughly great in the face of
death.
Among the visitors Monday was Romero, the
Mexican minister, who, when asked about the
patient and outlook, said:
OF course no one can foretell with certainty.
Tue disease, until recently, was within the
power of the doctors, butnow it has gone quite
beyond them. The general may live ten dave,
and he may die IN two hours. I fear he is going
to choke to death. If the disease reaches an ar
terry the danger of choking is increased, and
death by that means becomes almost inevltable.
Members of the family are now at the generals
bedside. The doctors are there, too, but they
keep back as much as possible. feur Ger.
Grant will choke to death. 1t is too bad.
The New York Tribune of Tuesday morning
says: Gen. Grant has expressed himself as
being entirely in his physicians hands, and
said he would do whatever was suggested by
them. Nothing whatever is kept from
him IN regard to his condition and he was in
formed of its seriousness and probable ter
mlnatlon. He received the statement that
there were indications of a speedy end without
a change of expression, but did not say any
thing about his feelings. He has known for
some time that the disease was sure to kill. and
has been ready atany time to go. DE- Douglass
said: The general has no appetite, buthe eate
when food is broushttohim The feature of the
day is great weakness. He is growing weaker and
weaker. d not know whether he fears a recur-
renee of the spnsms in the throat or not He
has not said anything about it That was one
Of the changes incident to the progress of the
disease" Minister Romero said: GAS soon
as the disease reaches an artery it will create
helmorrhase, and AS he is so weak, he cannot
eXpcctorate the blood out. it will choke him to
death. He cannot endure another attack like
the last one. The family fear the worst, and
keep near his bedside. There is a great swell.
ing on the side of his face"

The Day We Decorate.

Memorial day Is again at our TIRES
hold. La its sacred observance we
prove our faith that the God of Bat
Ties who gave to uS great success in
the noble cause in which we engaged
shall give crown Of life to our martyr
dead. Dearer, too, will be the ddY.
for year by year swells the number
that have passed over and joined the
innumerable company who muster to-
day upon the parade ground Of IIeav-
en-. Reminded that the ranks OF our
beloved heroes are fast thinning, let
each one be SO loyal to every virtue,
80 true To every friendship, 50 faithful
to the remaining marchers that we,
for whom was the nag and nation
saved, shall be ready To fail out and
take our places at the great review
hereafter, not with doubt, but IN faith
that the Me.ciful Captain of our sal
walton Will call us to that fraternity
which on earth and III Heaven remains
unbroken. Citizens, ladies, one and
all. the trophies, the triumphs, the
oil, of the defenders Of our country
are equally your Heritage. So, scatter
the flowers! Let the warm words of
tribute and songs Of grateful admir-
alton ascend like incense. Sweet also
let our remembrance be, now and
henccforih, OF the soldiers Of the
country who died that the nation
might live. -L.apeer Democrat.

Editing Z Paper,

Editing a paper is nice business,
and those who know nothing about
it consider it very easy business.
If we publish jokes people say we
are soft and if we omit jokes we are
told we are an old fossil. IL we
publish original matter they blame
US for not giving selections and if
we publish selections, folks say we
are lazy for not writing something
they had not read in some other
paper. Ignorant of what good edit
ing is, people imagine the getting
up of selected matter the easiest
thing TO do where it is really the
hardest work on a paper. If they
find the editor with scissors IN hand
they're sure to say, "Ah! that's the
way you get up original. matter,
eh?" accompanying their news and
witty questions with wink or smile.
The facts are, that the interest, the
variety, the usefulness of paper
depends in no small degree upon its
selected matter, and few men are
capable of the position who would
not be able themselves to write many
of the articles they select. If we
give a man a complimentary notice,
we are censured for being partial,
and if we fail to give complimentary
notices we are informed that we are
selfish. If we insert articles that
please the ladies the men are jealous.
Ii we remain in our Office and attend
to business, folks say we are to
proud to mingle with our follows,
and if we go out they say we never
attend to our business. a news
paper and q newspaper editor that
people don't talk about and some
times abuse are rather poor concerns.
The men and business that an editor
sometimes feels 1t duty to defend
at the risk of making enemies of an
other class, are often the very first
to show ingratitude. The editor
who expects to receive much charity
or gratitude will soon find out his
mistake; but he should go ahead and
say what he thinks right out without
regard to frown or smiles.
