GENERAL PALMER AND THE g. A.. r

General Palmer, Democrat, who ran
against Private Fifer, Republican, for Gov
ernor of Illinois, and wa defeated, has
withdrawn from the Grand Army of the Re-
public, because he believes the members Of
that order voted against him aud for his
opponent, or as he would construe 1t, they,
a. Grand Army men, threw their influence
against him asa Democrat, and in favor of
Fifer, who is = Republican. This is Is
strong - he can possibly put 1t. Nov, every
Grand Army man knows that politics, or the
discussion of them, are absolutely exclud-
ed from the Post Room; that any member
would be court martialed and expelled from
any Post in the United States for raising or
discussing any political questions therein, or
giving . psrtizan bias to any proceedings or
actions Of the Post. Bat any mar is more
than foolish If he believes . Grand Army
man will waive his political rights personally
because he is q member of the order. Re-
publicans do not ask Democrats to do that,
nor do Democrats expect Republicans to do
it. As Comrades of the Grand Army they
put politics aside. As individuals, If any
men outside the Post room, and aside from
their fraternal relations, in America have =
right to vote and talk and work for their
favorite candidate, they are those who served
to preserve the Union, and the 2lst Of Dec
ember will be the longest day in the year,
when they, Of any political belief, yield that
right. The veterans were indignant at
Cleveland for vetoiDg meritorious pension
publican Senate had passed, and especially
for the insulting terms in which he phrased
many Of his messages. It is not unlikely,
many Of them who never cast q Republican
vote before, Cast one November 9th, for
BENZ. Harrison, who didn't send . substitute
to the war, but went himself. That was
their right and privilege. It is not improb-
able many of them voted for Private Fifer
in preference to General Palmer, for there is
no distinction made in the G. A. R.. on &C.
count of former rank. There may be more
Republicans that Democrats in the order.
But Comrade Palmer and Comrade Fifer
were treated with absolute impartiality by
the G. A. R., as an organization, and the for
mer knows it. The Masons, Odd Fellows,
and the hundred and one other Fraternal
and Benevolent organizations are not less
partizan than the G. A. r. If persons for
any particular belief or objection see proper
to not join any Fraternal or Benevolent or
ganization to which they are eligible, that
IS their affair. If any Union veteran, hon
orably discharged, sees proper to remain
outside the q. A. R., that is his privelage,
although those who would be glad to call
him Comrade will regret it. But when
Comrades are defeated for Office, especially
when defeated by another Comrade, it is
certainly . great wrong to misstate the facts
to the injury Of the order, although the
Of Comrade Palmer will have
no more significance than that Of any other
Comrade,

YELLOW FEVER ON THE BOSTON.
Yellow Jack Breaks Up a Diplomatic Visit by
a Man of War.

New YORK, Nov. 24.-The United States
steamer, Boston, last reported at Port AZ
Prince, Hayti, where she was sent when the
Haytien government seized the American
steamer, Haytien Republic, reached New
York this morning and anchored At quaran.
tine. -~
Commander Rampsi reports that he left
Port AZ Prince Nov. 16. Surgeon Simon,
Frank Thomas, seaman, and Chas. Mitchell,
an ordinary seaman, were sick on board.
John J. Kelley and E. J. Trap, apprentices,
died Nov. 20. November 21 John Uselman,
marine, died, followed the next day BY the
death Of John Retzel, another marine. Vel
low fever is supposed to be the cause. The
steamer carries $50 men.
The officers of the Boston decline to make
any statement regarding the steamer Haytien
Republic, recently seized by the Haytien
authorities. They say the matter will have
to be settled by the authorities at Washing
ton.
In relation TO the Haytien Republic mat
ter, from a chat with one of the officers Of
the steamer Boston, it seems the steamer
Hayden Republic was captured while COM
ing out Of the harbor Of st. Marie, for try
ing to raise the blockade, by the Haytien
man of war, De Saline. Captain Ramsay, of
the Boston, had several interviews and Inter-
coded with the President of Hayti, who re-
fused to release the steamer, and the matter
was referred to the Secretary of State at
Washington for final action.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-The navy de-
partment to-day received q telegram from
Captain Ramsay, commanded the United
States steamer, Boston, which arrived at
quarantine, New York harbor, this morning,
stating the vessel had yellow fever aboard.
The Boston had been at Port au Prince,
Hayti, on q diplomatic mission, but left on
the 18th, when the fever appeared. There
has been no new case on board since the 10Th
inst. No information Of 4 late date from
Hayti regarding the disposition Of the seized
American vessel, Hayden Republic, has been
received at the Department Of State, and it
is presumed the Boston bears dispatches
from the United States Consul.

The Billings Gazette of Nov. % says there
is now scarcely any probability Of the Rocky
Fork Railroad Company completing their
road within the period provided by the COM
pany's charter. Ex-Governor Hauser pre-
scented the matter to Northern Pacific men
and It was thought until . day or two ago
that arrangements would be made for going
on with the work, but these hoces seem now
dispelled. The Gazette expresses its regret
at the failure to complete the road and open
the Rocky Fork coal mines, and deplores the
fact the more in that thousands of dollars
will be lost BY the poorer classes in that
vicinity.

An Important Decision.

An important suit as affecting the
building societies of the CITY, was de-
cided by Judge Noonan in the district
court this morning. The suit was
brought by Jake Weber against w. s..
Hardy as a tresspas suit to try title to
certain city property. 1t seems that
some time ago Mr.. Hardy was men,
Der of the International Building and
Loan association, and wishing to buy
some property, he applied to the associ-
alton for loan. At that time there
was not enough money in the treasury,
and the money was temporarily secured
from third party, and few days after
the loan was advanced by the essocis-
ton to Hardy, and he gave deed of
trust on the property to secure
repayment of the loan. Mr.. Har-
dy failed TO meet the require
mentS in accordance with the agree
ment, and after due leisure was
shown him by the association the
property was advertised for sale, and
was sold at the courthouse, nOtwith-
standing Mr.. Hardy's protest that it was
homestead property, to MIR. Jake Weber,
director of the association. This suit
therefore was brought by Mr. Weber to
determine title. Judge Noonan held
that the building associations lien upon
the property was good, and the defend
ant must pay all that was due to the
association and costs, but he set aside
the sale of the property, giving the de-
PENDANT an opportunity Of discharging
the lien, failing that the property Oou
be again sold under the deed of trust.
The defendants attorneys then gave
notice of appeal.

EDITORIAL BREVITIES

TEXAS Is not the only state In which
the rival cities take crack at each
other by way Of appetizer, each twit-
ting the other of lack OF enterprise,
pluck, vim and observation-disclosures.
Ohio has town called Findlay, where a
great find Of natural gas sent things up
skyward recently. Toledo is an old
fogy town of great natural advantages
but rather slow to catch on. in the
slang phrase of the day. The Toledo
Blade stirs up it's readers to greater in
tsrest in their town as follows:
ga Findlay man was here this week +,
and the patronizlng airs he put on were
something intolerable. "Oh, yes" he
said, "you've got very fine place here
great natural advantages, and all that
I'VE haven't got many natural advan-
tages in Findlay, but we've got men
with en- terprise enough to secure four
large glass factories in less thsn q week.
That's what we did last week, and two
more ready to close today. Swap off
some OF your natural advantages for
push, nergy and vim, and after while
Toledo will become quite CITY,"
Even from far away Ohio this lesson
comes to San Antonio. Swapping off
natural advantages for push, energy
and vim may pay in the long run. 1t is
certainly worth the trial.
