LOGAN'S ADMoNITION.

To Gen. John A. Logan belongs the
honor of establishing Memorial Day
as it is now observed. In 1868, as Com.
mander. .in-chief of the G. A. R., he
issued an order recommending it, OF
which the following is the closing
paragraph:
We should guard their graves with
sacred vigilance. All that the conse.
Grated wealth and taste of the nation
can add to their adornment and secur.
ity is but a fitting tribute to the mem.
ory of her slain defenders. Let NO
wantOn foou tread rudely on such hal.
lowed grounds. Let pleasant paths
invite the coming and going of rever.
ent visitors and fond mourners. Let
no vandalism of avarice or neglect, no
ravages of time testify to the present
or to the coming generations that we
have forgotten as people the cost of a
free and undivided republic. If other
eyes grow dull and other hands slack,
and other hearts cold in the solemn
trust. ours shall keep it we'll as long as
the light and warmth remain to us,
Let us, then, at the appointed time
gather round their sacred remains and
garland the passionless mounds above
them with the choicest flowers of
springtime; let US raise above them the
dear old flag theysaved from dishonor;
let us in this solemn presence renew
our pledges to aid and assist those
whom they have left among us, sacred
charges upon a nations gratitude, the
soldiers and sailors widow and orph-
an.

THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER DEAD.

One day In distant city,
Hundreds of miles away;
wandered into grave yard
Near the close of a summer day.
And there mid the stately marbles
OF beautiful snowy white
That showed the resting place of those
Who had passed to eternal light,
One lowered above all others
More stately far than they
While round its base were growing
Green ivy and flowers CAV;
Across the top of the broken column.
Shone the rays of the set ting sun.
And it seemed to my ewes a blessing
On the sleeper whose work was done.
Ana said how they must have loved hin
who sleeps so quiet beneath
TO have reared this beautiful tribute,
Crowned with its laurel wreath
And then as paused to learn
The name, this is what read;
To the memory of Fallen Comrades.
Our Unknown Soldier Dead.''
All honor to these brave comrades
Who were to their country so true
And who died without a murmur
Meath the beautiful Red, White and Blue
These, who in the fiercest battles.
MID the rain of shot and she'll,
Tor tnelr country's honor fighting,
Nebly doing their duty-felI.
And in the flag that is hopored
Is seen not the faintest shadow
or fSecession's bloody hand;
And to those who so bravely carried IL
Over many bloody field,
Who never came back. let us always
Our hearts richest treasures Yield.
And so when we go, friends and comrades
To the city ont there on the hill
Each year In the beautiful springtime
And our arms with flowers ill
And pay to the long-silent sleepers
To those gallant boys in blue,
Our tribute of loving remembrance
That is so justly their due;
while we lay on the graves over yonder
Our nags, wreaths and roses red
Let us then be not unmindful
OF the "Unkown Soldier Dead -
For when, at the last roll-calI,
Is the Nations honor roll read,
Sot iar from the top will be found list
VI Unknown Soldier Dead"

IT is about time that Topeka should
be recognized by an appointment of a
Kansan to Kansas position, and right
here we would like to remark that no
appointment would be more worthy,
more eminently proper, nor be re-
ceived with greater commentator in
the capital city and over the entire
state than the selection of Charles s..
Gleed of Topeka, as United States Dis
trict attorney. He is qualified in
every respect, has done more good hon
est political work for less reward than
any young republican in the state and
we believe it would also be true with
the adjective young" omitted. Gov
ernor Humphrey and the administra-
ton have made their efforts thus far
conspicuous in helping old stalwarts
to office. 1t is now time that some-
thing substantial be done for the
younger workers, and Charles 8. Gleed
is a good one to begin on and the Office
of district attorney the place.-TOpeka
Journal.
So say we, all of us.

Ma,abattdn Republic: A few Kan
sas politicians never tire of speaking
of the $4,000 majority that this state
gave for Harrison, and use it as lever
to get into office. The fact Of the mat
ter is, these few declaimers make the
people tired with their many times
told speeches. The truth is. the fight
was made for certain principles. The
great majority of the voters had not
thought of Office. They did not vote
for spoils and they are disgusted with
the few of the self-constituted leaders
who think they are competent to in
struct the president in the matter of
removals, ,These orators don't amount
TO much, and they are annoying the
ninety-nine of the one hundred who
form the great party.

1t is not generally known that pneu-
monia and bronchitis carry off one
third Of the human race, but such are
the facts, and what is more surprising,
both of the above diseases result from
neglecting common ordinary cold. A
cough should never be negl ected. II

cough harder, and it sticks by you
longer. Ballard's Horehound Syrup is

LIN coin AT GETTYSBURG.


"Foursco-e and seven years ago oul
fathers brought forth on this con.
tinent new nation, conceived in
Liberty, and dedicated to the PROPOSE.
tioh that all men are created equal.
snow We are engaged in a great
civil war, testing whether that nation
or any nation so conceived and so ded-
icated can long endure. We are met on
a great battlefield of that war. We are
met to dedicate aportion of it as final
resting-place of those who here gave
their lives that that nation might live.
1t is altogether fitting and prope,
that We should do this.
"But in a larger sense we cannot
dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we
cannot hallow this ground. The
brave men, living and dead, who
struggled here have consecrated it far
above our power to add or detract.
The world will little note or long re-
member what We say here, but it can
never forget what they did here. 1t
is for us, the living, rather to be ded.
icated here to the unfinished work that
they have thus so nobly carried on.
It is rather for US here to be dedicated
to the great task remaining
before us-that from these
honored dead We take increased de-
votion to the cause for which they gave
the last full measure of fdevotion-that
we highly resolve that the dead shall
not have died in vain, that the ns-
ton shall, under God, have new
birth of freedom, and that the govern
ment of the people, by the people, and
for the people, shall not perish from

PROF. cANFIRLD's WORK.

Talking of the special work now left
10 Prof. ]. II. Garfield, in the StateU Uni
versity, since the division of his chair,
Regent g. S. Gleed is reported as fol-
lows by the Topeka Capital:
Nothing has been more remarkable
in the years which have succeeded the
war than the intense interest with
which the American people, and es.
pecially the students in the higher in
stitutions of learning, have turned to
the history and government of their
country. Hardly a college or univer.
sity in the land made even q pretense
of teaching United States history, and
the science of government was gener-
ally abandoned to a fraction of part
of term. President Garfield expi ess.
ed growing public conviction when
he said that We must first intelligent
ly settle the financial questions grow.
ing out of the debt and the CURRENCY
created during the war, and then "the
people must turn to questions concern.
ing the structure, powers and proper
functions of our government" To.
day every university worthy of the
name gives large opportunities of lust
ibis kind of investigation, and calls as
leaders in this work the best men that
money and opportunitycan command.
Our university has taken another step
in this direction which again proves
that it is worthy of the high rank that it
has attained. For several years 1t has
been hnown that the chair of history
and political science ought to be divid-
ed, and the head of that department
has annually urged immediate action.
But not until this spring has the board
found the means for this change. As
soon as it became practicable from a
financial standpoint, Prof. Garfield
was asked to name particularly the
work which he would like
to retain, aid to suggest any
changes in the course that should be
made to harmonize the work of the
two new chairs that were to be created.
A special committee of the regents
went over the entire ground with him
aHd together they elaborated the plan
which the board has Just adopted.
Prof. Canfiesd's department will afford
most unusual faculties for original in
yestigation, broad reading and in
dependent thought. Two-thirds of
the senfires instruction is given in
American history. The work includes
the usual material facts, elaborated,
and adds extensive readings, lectures
and discussions in early Institutions,
industrial growth, transportation, pub,
lie finauces. diplomatic history, con-
stitntional Interpretation, the history
of political parties, the rise and fal:
of the slave power. educational deyel-
openent, biography, local history, and
ali other matters properly connected
with public and administrative life.
Added to this are special courses in
constitutional law; lie public finance
and banking, in international law and
diplomacy. and in local law and ad-
ministratjon.

THERE have been great many ex-
pressions of horror over the bungling
way in which the Bald Knobbers

at from the standpoint of scientific

pangs to the punishment of the con.
