the brush OF Miss Nellie Eastland.
The picture is a landscape scene,
mountains IN the distance. large,
clear brook running through II pass,
which Is overshadowed by green
trees. Below the foot OF the falls is
the traditional grist mill, the aquc-
duct carving water 10 the over-shot
wheel. The miller and farmer with
a sack of corn are conspicuous at the
door of the old mill. The scene Is
one of perfect granduer, and every
leaf aud shrub shows the touch of the

proud of his painting, and the fair
lady who did the work deserves
more credit than the pen of the Ex-

Not so with tobacco, however. Concern

u. N.
At the end of the war steps were taken to
keep alive some of these associations. Illinois
was the state, probably, in which the Grand
Army of the Republic was first regularly
organized It's aim was benevolent. One
object, as stated in call, was that the sur
viving veteran soldiers and sailors might
care ''for the widow and orphan of those
whose ties with us were welded in the fire
of battle, and also for the needy and desti-
tute among the survivors of the late war;"
It is entirely to the Grand Army that
we owe the establishment of Decora-
tion Day, May 80, as q legal holiday. 1t is
set apart as an annual memorial day to the
brave dead of the war of the Rebellion. The
G. A. R., too it was who set on foot the
movement which has resulted in the erecting
Of soldiers monuments in most Of the cities
Of tho Union. Underlying all, penetrating
all, was the sentiment of loyalty to the
United States government, stern, unwaver-
ing fidelity to the Republic. The men who
had fought the countrys battle built upon
that as the foundation stone of their order
At times party politics has rashly entered
their councils in different states. Wherever
this has happened it has invariably split the
lodges and broken them up. A mans politics
is like his love and religion-a matter of
TASTE with which no one may safely NEEDLE.
In the spring of 1866 the order was regu-
larly started in Illinois, with ritual and
charter lodges. Maj. B. F. Stevenson, now
dead, was the founder. Gen. John NJ. Palmer
was elected the first department commander
for the state.
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1885-07-09

The W. r. C. held it's annual meeting at
Portland at the same time with the G. A. r.
A public reception was rendered to its presi-
dent, the gocd-lookiug woman whose likeness
appears above. The cerps now has men,
bership of several thousand, nearly all over
the Union. It has done much good in be-
nevolent way. Mrs. Gen. Logan was guest
of the corps at the late meeting, and was re-
ceived with graceful honors. The president
for the coming year is Mrs. S. E. Fuller, of
Massachusetts,. Mrs. Sherwood declined
reelection.
Mrs Sherwood has done much to bring the
organization into solid working order. She
is an Ohio woman, from Toledo, a lady of
culture and high literary attainments. She
made an eloquent address at the meeting of
her society. A stirring poem from her pen
was read at the encampment. We clip from
it the last stanza to close this long letter:
o, nation great, state linked to state in bonds
that none can break,
From ocean unto ocean, from gulf to north
ern lake,
State linked to state, fate linked to fate, in
mart and mint and mine,
In rolling plain of golden grain, in toss of
plumy pine!
State linked to state in goodly fate that
sounds the swift advance,
Where banners that have wooed the world
before our legions dance!
This is the dream that crowns our years:
and when our heads are low,
Float on, float on, 0 Union flag, as twenty
years ago!

from the shrill, sweet voices with striking
effect
The veterans were a noble-looking array
Of men Bronzed, manly and well fei. they
constitute the flower Of those who were dis
banded from the ranks twenty years ago.
An observer who watched them gathering
in from all sections Of the Union remarked:
II never felt so proud of being an Ameri-
can and an old soldier as 1 am to-day"
It is said that the Massachusetts boys Of John
A. Andrew post take the palm as being the
finest-looking body of men In the encamp-

the delegates on the ground.

Though ommander-in-chief, he is one Of the
youngest men in the g. A. R., being now
only 80 years old. He is from Toled :, o.
He enlisted as a drummer boy in the Thirty
seventh Ohio. At the battle Of Mission
Ridge his drum corps was ordered to the
rear The boy refused to go, but remained
to fight on the field. He was severely
wounded, and his left leg had to be am
putated. After that he became known the
country over as the Drummer Boy V
Mission Ridge" He is an enthusiastic
worker for the Grand Army. A handsome
reception was rendered Commander Kountz
in the Portland city hall Tuesday evening.
Governor Robie, of Maine, is himself G.
A. R. comrade, and addressed the meeting.
The mayor of Portland, in his speech, paid
O beautiful tribute to the dead members Of
the Grand Army. He said:
"Wegratefully remember that great army
whose roll call grows larger on each sue
cessive Memorial day. They have crossed
the river. They await your coming, and
sooner than we can realize their ranks will
be filled, ard the men who fought our bat.
ties that this nation and union of these
states might live forever will exist only in
history and in the memory of grateful
country"
Robert H. Heudershot is guest Of the en-
campment He is the Drummer Boy Of the
Rappahannock He carries a silver drum,
which he received from the hand of Horace
Greeley. He belonged to the Eighth Michi-
gan infantry. and the drum was presented
to him by The Tribune association for gallan-
try at Fredericksburg. For his services in
the Garfield campaign some Illinois Repub-
licans gave him pair of gold-mounted
sticks to go with it.
Here is a scene in the camp in which the
old boys spent their week:
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1885-07-09

There were some lively goings on there
abouts. The fun of the green young fellows
of the National Guard now in camp in vari-
GUS states is mild in its impudence compared
to that Of the gray mustaches in Camp U. S.
Grant. They kept the citizens Of Portland
half crazy all Tuesday night marching
through the streets with drums and brass
bands. They were out on a frolic, and were
getting their quarters in camp Portland
folk were quite worn out, but at last they
blessed their stars that they were going to
get some sleep at 5 o'clock in the morning
Vain hope! inst as the staid citizens were
dropping off into troubled snooze after
daylight, along came another laundering
brass band playing, marching through
Georgia." as with a roar of $50 steam
whistles all at once Through street after
street they went, playing that tune as if the
fiend was in their horns. They were kindly
waking the good people up, these old fel-
lows.
MADE ROME HOWL.
Your soft young militiamen would have
been put under arrest if they had gone about
the streets with a brass band, soaring citi-
zens out Of their beds thus But still the vet
Grams did no harm, really.
One little uupleasantness arose, which it
is best to take a humorous view of Port.
land is the most sheet-iron temperance town
ir the Union. 1t is said people t lere even
refuse to allow their editor to w:te that
distinguished citizen of the town is in good
spirits. At any rate, it is more than ru-
mored that some Of the G. A. r. comrades
brought with them supply of that which
,hould put good spirits into them.
The mayor heard CT it, Neal Dow
heard of it, and the ministers heard OF
it. The latter preache warnings from theii
pulpits on Sunday. Tue mavor and Gen.
Neal Dow wrote letter to Gen. James A.
Hall OH the subject. They hoped, in effect
that the snow-white tame of their temper
ance city would not lie everlastingly dis
graced by these bad, bad Grand Array boys
The procession was the picturesque fea
ture of the week.
TWENTY-THREE THOUSAND VETERANS
marched under the old war banners to the
sound of fife and drum. C!tizons, Unite1
States troops national guards, and others
swellel the ranks to considerably more
There was striking difference in the ap-
pearance of the G. A. r. and the others.
The old solliers marched In solid rank.
There was steady CLEAN in their eyes,
touch of grmness in their set jaws, after
all these years, that told of real fighting
more powerfully than words could do
Here were the handsome young fellows
with down upon their faces and no tarnish
OH III. tinsel of their uniforms; there in
their old uniforms, the firm, fire-and-iron
tried men who had known real war. There
was not so much style about them, but
plenty of grim, steady earnest. If another
war should come, these men with graying
hair and beard would be the first to 60.
''Prim," al old war horse, who served in
the Red river campaign, was led in the pro-
cession. One of the features Of the parade
was the singing of old war songs by the
Portland school children. "The Battle Cry
of Freedom" "Star-Spangled Banner" and
Tramp! TrampI' rang out upon the air
