North Carolina is 25 per cent, includ.

DECORATION DAY.

The ladies Of Memphis have selected
next Saturday ss the day for the an
nual decoration Of the graves Of the
Confederate soldiers buried at Elm
wood. 1t is hoped that the wilderness
Of flowers and the fragrance that fills
the sir at Elmwood GA Saturday will
attest the gratitude which the eommu-
nifty still cherishes for the memory oil
the dead defenders OF the South.
When Decoration Day was first
adopted II was regarded by many as a
dangerous experiment in our republic.
Beautiful as the idea was, II was feared
that Il would call forth bitter memo
ries aud incite psrtisans to expressions
that would have q tendency to reopen
the wounds between the North and
South. 1t was an experiment such as
the civic government OF Rome in her
brightest days would have ~interdicted,
iutt az il interdicted monuments
to commemorate the vict)rieI
Of civil war. Bat the sound sense OF
the people Of both sections prevailed
andbtought the country safely through
tbs peril, aud Confederate aud Union
soldiers sometimes join in the ohserv-
ance Of Decoration Day. Time hes
healed the wounds OF war; its Issues
have been put behind US; memory
has now a haliowipg influences, in
stead Of bsiug q cauker, aud the peo'
pc OF all sections commend the u s
tom of decorating the graves Of this
gallant dead. With hsar's loyal TO
the Union, the men, women aud chill
dren will visit Elmwood on Saturday
ADD join in honoripg the memory OF
those who suffered and died In de-
Tense OF what they believed TO be
right. The heroism OF those gallant
men is the splendid heritage oil
the American people. These men can
no more be robbed OF their glory than
the sun can be robbed of it's efiulgence.
The North and South now clasp hands
together aud lift n voice to the valor
Of our common heroes. We meet On
Saturday, not 10 keep alive the war
issueF, but to do honor to those who
died battling for the principles which
they and we believed to be right,
which constitutes the highest heroism.
In after years their fame will be sung,
not as rebels, bat as Americans. On
the battlefield, 10 the hospital, they
fell like patriots, and on Saturday lei
rs pay our annual tribute TO their
memories.

ANARCHIST ARRESTED.
A Had Man Lodged I'm Jail at Chi
eagO.

CHICAGO, ILL, Nay 19.-John A.
Henry, who is employed on a morn
ing paper al a composition, and whole
i%nceudiaTy uttersnces since the arrest
of Spies aud other Anarchists have
given him an unenviable repu'aio r,
wss srrested to-day while engaged in
distributing a call for a demonstra-
ton which it wasintsnded should take
place on the lake front on Sunday az.
ternoon next. The call declared prs.
vate capital deprivation of the people,
denounced the police, the courts and
the press for pursuing the Anarchists,
and concluded with the assertion
Anarchy is not violence, il is only
the promise Of peace" Henry was
somewhat expTessivelv attired in a
dark suit and silk hat, and his hands
were eI cased in dressed kid gloves.
When taken to the Central stali n he
was very demonst alive, and endeav-
ored TO convince Lieut. Shea that
the hay market stack on the
police was just fable. "There will be
more bombs THROWN" he coolly ex-
claimed; "this thing Is not ended by
any means. The present Laws are
damnable." An examination tf Henry
disclosed the fact that be not only be-
lieves in anarchy, but also advocates
free love in its most repu'sive and un-
natural forms. He was consigned To
a cell, and the proposed demonst a,
ton, if attempted, will be promptly
suppress ed.

SPEEDY HANGING DEMANDED.

~ -
The charge cf Judge Rogers to the
grand jury at Chicago on Monday last
means the enforcement OF the law
the ~indicting, conviction aud speedy
execution Of the Anarchists who have
at laet undertaken to practice the law
lees methods they have 80 long
preached. II these men should be
speedily tried, convicted and executed,
the result will be most salutary. The
country will watch the contest in
Chicago with anxiety. A terrible ex-
ample should be made OF the outlaws
who come here iIom q foreign land
with no thought higher than to teach
anarchy, to eat food, drink beer, and
TO wear clothes without earn
ing either. The mission Of these
knaves is to establish that in
dustry and irugality are crimes
and that depraved vagabonds poxess
the inherent right to rob and to mske
industry and thrift staud and deliver
to them their hard, honest earnings.
The presence OF these outlaws Is an
insult to honest foreigners who are
punctilious in the observance OF law.
They prostitute the sacred name of
labor by using II to protsct them in
their diabolism. It is hoped the con-
test in Chicago will teach the native
or for ign scoundrels that liberty in
this country does not mean dynamite,
anarchy and murder. The Anarchist
who comes to this country with moth
ing in his trunk but dynamite aud
bombs should be welcomed with Tom
Corwih'a 'b'o9dy bands to hospitable
graves" The whole country is
filed with honor at the bold

munities, with the view Of possessing
themselves Of the properly Of tho e
they have claim. The Anarchists are
yenomous and Shiny reptileF, and
their punishment should be swift.
In this country property is sacred to
its owner, and no Anarchist will be al
10 xed TO appropriate It. The vsga-
bonde, the thriftle,s and vicious can
not quarter themselves on the indus
trious and frugal. The Anarchists are
as much the enemies Of labor and Of
law As OF capital aud OF order. They
seek not to amelioIa.e, but to
destroy society, knowing that
they have nothing 10 lose and every
thing TO gain by substituting
anarchy for Law aud order. The
grand idea Of liberty regulated
by law, which 10 the foundation
OF American Institutions is their
abomiuat'o on. They have no use for a
government that res,rains criminals
aud prevents them from seizing the
property Of honest industry. They
claim It rot only as a right, but
duty TO take whatever they want from
anybody who has it, and base theil
theory on the ground that everybody
who has money has stolen it. The
law abiding people Of America mani
tested much patience with these vii
lains 50 long as they confined them

mits. But now that they have com
