is THIS SO7
Has the G. A. II. Become an Annex to tho
Republican Party?

Has the G. A. r. Become an Annex to the
Republican Party?
Among the boiler-plate matter pre-
pared by Chairman w. S. Cappcller
and sent out to the Republican press of
the State and paid for by Republican
campaign funds, we find the following:
We'haye information from Republican State
Headquarters at Columbus that in all parts
of Ohio there is a general movement on the
part of old soldiers without regard to past
party affiliations, to support the Republican
the State agree on this subject, and it now
seems likely that the votes of the members
of the Grand Army of the Republic will al
most without exception be cast for gallant
General Robinson and the other soldier cam
didates on the Republican ticket.
If this is true it is very important,
and all the facts should be known. If
the Post Adjutants are reporting to the
Republican State Executive Committee,
agreeing to turn over SO many votes to
tie Republican bosses, it is about time
that the thousands of Democrats who
| are members of the Grand Army, and
| who pay their annual dues and make
additional contributions to its noble
charities, should know it.
If the Department Commander is
sending in consolidated reports of the
Grand Army to the Chairman of the
| Republican State Executive Committee,
it is highly important that that fact be
known.
If it is not true that the G. A. r., is
reporting for service to the Republican
Committee, and we do not believe it
is, then it is important, for the good of
the organization, that that fact be known.
The statement above quoted was
written in the rooms of the Republican
Executive Committee by authority of
that body, and put in type and stereo-
typed by its chairman and sent to all
the Republican papers in the State.
What says the Department Comman-
der to the charge of the Republican
State Executive Committees it true
or false that the G. A. r. has become a
Republican annex?
There are thousands of Grand Army
men anxious to see the organization 60 on
prospecting and doing good. who desire
to know whether or not it is true that il
is to be turned over to the management
of a political party.
What say the Post Commanders Of
Lytle and Thomas-have they any in.
formation on this subject? Do they
know of any title that W. S. Cappcllel
has to speak for the G. A. R., either as q
private citizen or as chairman of a party
committed?
There are hundreds of soldiers right
! here in Cincinnati belonging to these
Posts who desire to be informed on this
subject.
They tell us that both the written and
unwritten law of the Grand Army for.
bids politics from crossing the guart
line, and we believe that what they state
is true. We believe that w. S. Capped
Ter has libeled the Grand Army.
We know that we but rc-echo the
sentiments of the best Grand Army
men in Cincinnati and Ohio when WE
say that this libel ought to be refutee
lest it wreck the noble organization. al
it was once before wrecked by the poll
ticians. = Cincinnati Enquirer.
