GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC,
May 10th, 1892.
GENERAL ORDER

GENERAL ORDER
No. .3.
L. The returning spring again reminds
us of Memorial Day, with its time -honored
ooservances, with its duties and obliga-
tions incumbent on the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic.
Let us. then, on this approaching 30th
day of May, endeavor to make 1t more
sacred by laying aside our usual avoca-
tons. discountenancing everything that
has tendency to draw away our thoughts
from the hallowed memories of the day
Let all chickering's cease. let harmony pre-
vail, while we reverently visit the grave of
every soldier and sailor, leaving a flag, a
wreath, flower, some token of cherished
memories. Let the sad privilege accorded
us as survivors, impress the younger gen
Grafton who are to I'LL our places, with the
great principles for which our sleeping
comrades so freely gave up their lives, and
tor which we all fought to perpetuate, free
dom and National unity. Each Post will
assemble and conduct appropriate exer-
cises for which no special form Is offered
while all old soldiers and sailors are re-
quested to join our professions; and the
public generally and especially school
children, are cordially invited to partici-
pate Memorial exercises would be but
idle ceremonies If they were merely TO af-
ford opportunity for public expressions of
personal sorrow for the loss of some dear
friend or the sudden quenchiug of some
kindred spirit. They are held for another
ana wiser purpose. CommemOrating
thus publicly, eminent qualities, whether
of soul or OF intellect. or of both united,
they become an incentive for the emua-
tion Of the living, making better members
OF society. They stimulate in youth and
dawning manhood worthy ambition To
thrive. to achieve to excel They are cal
Culated to contribute To the fashionine of
higher order of society and greater,
stronger, nohler n4tionali'y Guided by
an unseen, but potent irrluence. they be
come an inspiration aud the world is made
better for them.

Three Times Constitutional.

WASHINGTON, March Three cases
in which the Importers sought to contest
the constttutionality of the Mckinley
tariff act were decided by the United
States supreme court. The titles to
these are: Boyd, Sutton g. Co. and Her
man Sternbach 81 Co., each void as to
the United States, and Joel B. Erhardt,
collector of the port of New York, and
Marshall Field & Co. VS.. Clark, collector
of the port of Chicago. The ground on
which it was maintained the tariff was
unconstitutional was the tobacco rebate
section of the bill had been omitted in
its enrolment after its passage by con-
gress and therefore the bill signed by
the president was not the bill passed by
the legislative department of the gov
eminent; that the reciprocity feature
was a Transmission to the executive Of
law making power and therefore void
vitiating the whole act, and lastly that
the act was void because of the sugar
bounty provision. The court affirmed
the judgments of the New York ant
Illinois courts Of the United States il
favor of the constitutionality of the act

About Gold Heservs..

WASHINGTON, March AT the in
stance of Representative Dockery of Mis-
souri, the house adopted resolution di-
recting the committee on judiciary to
inquire and report to the house as to the
right of the secretary Of the treasury to
use the $500, 100000 gold reserve for cur
rent expenditures In regard to the res
olution, Dockery said; asked the house
to'accept the resolution for the reason
that there seems to be some doubt upon
the question, especially emphasized by
an interview of the secretary himself.
published i'll this city, in which he is
quoted as saying: LAS to the 800, 900,
600 gold reserve, it Is held against $3.50,
O0O, 900 national bank notes, to make the
credit of the government impregnable.
for no one will be able TO get together
enough greenbacls to take all of the
gold out of the treasury and therefore
they do not take any, But these notes
outstanding are legal tender and the
government can as well use the gold re-
serves if it needs to in a pinch. 1t should
therefore appear in the debt statement

No Quorum Was All Right.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The "no
quorum case, in which the legality of
Of the Dingley worsted act was attacked
by BALM, Joseph & Co., importers, was
decided by the United States supreme
court. The Dingley act was passed
through the action of Speaker Reed in
counting quorum of members present,
but not voting. The importers main
tanned that Speaker Reeds action was in
violation of the constitution and an act
passed in this manner was void. The
United States circuit court for the south
ern district of New York decided against
the United States and in favor of the
importers on this ground, so that the
case came before the United States
supreme court adverse to the constitu-
tionality of the mo quorum" method of
parliamentary procedure. The court, in
decision by Justice Brewer, held that
mo quorum" rule was valid and that
the house of representatives had the
right to make such rule.
The suggestion there might be DELHI
crate conspiracy between the presiding
officers and the president to make law
not passed by congress the court said
could not hold. The enrolled act the
court held was conclusive.

FREE BAGGING BILL.
REPORT OF THE WAYS AND MEANS
COMMITTEE

Proposing TO Admit Free of Duty Ma
chinery for Manufacturing Cotton Bag.
ging as Well as the Manufactured Article.
Supreme Court Decisions.
WASHINGTON, March THE follow
ing is the report of Mr.. Turner of Geor-
gia, from the ways and means committee,
i'll favor of the bill to admit free of duty
bagging for cotton, machinery for manu-
featuring bagging, cotton ties and cotton
gins:
The bill proposes an act of tardy jus
tice to those who contribute the chief
item of our export trade. The right to
resort to imported bagging and ties will,
1t is confidently believed, protect the
farmers and laborers engaged in the pro-
duction of cotton against corners and
combinations among those who under
the present tariff control the supply of
these indispensable articles. The i'm
portation of machinery used in the
manufacture of bagging is proposed in
this bill for the benefit of American bag
ging factories. They already have their
raw material free. An additional rea-
son is suggested by the fact that if these
very simple machines can be imported
free, the frrmers themselves can join in
production of bagging. They will thus
have in their own hands final defense
against trusts and monopolies. They are
still smarting from the oppression which
the very recent combination imposed
raising the price of bagging nearly 1O(
per cent. The effect of the Mckinley
rates upon bagging and ties has not YET
been fully developed. The first effect
has been to cut off importation of these
articles. The next step will be an aug
mentation of price.

In opposition to the bill.
