A G. A. r. Post Punished.

Commander Joseph p. Clearv, of
the State Department of the Grand
Army of the Republic, has issued
an order disbanding Noah L. Farm
ham Post, of New York city, which
has mem bership of 1852, for a vio-
lation of the rules of the organiza-
ton in passing resolutions which
criticised the national pension laws
John j. Finn, commander of Farm
ham Post, has been served with a
copy Of this order and directed to
turn over to the chief mastering
officer of the New York State De-
partment all the property to the de-
partment, including books of re-
cord and post papers.
Tine resolutions passed by the
post created Il great stir all over
the country.
"We believe IN scaling the fraud
ulent pension lists so that only those
really deserving of aid from the
government shall receive 1T for SER
vice in the rebellion" was the way
one of the officers Of the post sum-
married. their action.
The resolutions demanding pen
sion reform were passed at a meet
ing of the post by big majority.
One polnt at issue was the fact that
the post disregarded a Grand Army
rule providing that in taking action
affecting the whole order the action
should be submitted to the depart
ment commander before it was
made public.

swords points. Who can tell what
is coming?
Meanwhile imports grow aud
gold goes out-the exports from
April % over slO.O00,000.
With all this in view the Demo-
Gratis have a scheme to make bad
worse. They propose an increase
of over 1885,, 100000 in our yearl,
imports-makes that, and more
necessary for revenue.
1t is a plot against the nations
safety and honor, in the interest of
importers and foreign manufacture
ers. Grant that they were led into
it, and that leaves them blind and
weak and foolish.
The whole situation is an object
lesson illustrating partisan Demo-
cracy and Free Trade.
From the days when the imbecil-
ity Of President Buchanan plunged
us into terrible civil war, to these
Gays, when an imbecil Congress,
without convictions, and ruled by
expediency, has taken no precau-
tons, and has put off the evil day,
which it breads to meet, when it
must assail our home industries
and smite honest labor sore blows,
it has built up nothing. Party
democracy allied to Free Trade has
been and Is destructive but not con-
structive.

com pare their day with this. Thous-
ands of people have lost millions of
money through the state bank is
sues. Never man, woman or child
has lost a cent through the present
currency system. The note issued
by the most obscure national bank
is us good everywhere as the note
of the best known and richest IN
the market under its own shadow.
Experience has been thought to
teach the desirabillty of "a dollar alb
solutelv good everywhere. Our
southern friends give the prefer
ence to dollar, so-called, of un-
certain value and worth most at
home because 1t is not wanted else
where.
The Democratic party is commit
ted to this kind of money and may
give the country new experience
with it. The south is powerful
factor in the Democratic party.

CONGRATULATIONS are extended
to Baltimore. In the 60-page
Worlds Fair Southern edition of
the Baltimore NeWs we are told
that Baltimore has grown more
rapidly in proportion to population
than any other city on the Atlantic
coast, and saying less about it. Five
years ago there were 5, 400 vacant
houses in the city; since then H.
600 have been built, making a sup
ply of 16, 400 houses available in five
years, and yet it is difficult to rent
a house to-day. The city's popula-
ton is about 500, 700 and, includ-
ing the suburbs, from $4,000 to
900, 200. During 1892 its popula-
ton increased SO, 500, or Z per cent.
against an average increase between
1880 and 1890 of2t per cent year.

DECORATION DAY. which will be
next Tuesday, will be appropriately
observed by the people of Oakland
and the immediate vicinity. Crook
Post, No. 35, G.. A. r., has issued
an invitation to the several organi-
cations and societies in town to
meet with them on that day and in
conjunction with them decorate the
graves of the fallen heroes who now
sleep the long sleep and are await
ing the last roll call.
Almost generation has passed
since the last act in the great drama
of '61'64. Shortly another genera
tioE will take its place and not a
man who took part in that great
memorable event will be alive, so
let us, as patriotic people, do honor
to those who have gone, thus set
ting an example to be followed in
after years by those who take our
places.
We remember the great men who
fell III defense of Gus flag and coun-
try and to the memory we cannot
pay too much respect, but we can
be grateful and decorate their graves
with the flowers many of them, no
doubt, loved and treasured when
they were facing almost sure death
for the loye of their government.
While this great and glorious free
Republican form of government
lives the day for decorating the
graves of our fallen heroes will be
remembered and observed, and thus
the fire of patriotic devotion to one
common cause will be kept alive in
our hearts ana disseminate that
virtue to the coming generation,
many of whom will be proud to
trace their lineage to some soldier
of the great civil war.
Let us, one and all, hand in
hand, join in making this decora-
ton day one long to be remembered
by the people of Oakland and the
visitors who will likely be present.
Cover them over with beautiful flowers;
Deck them with garlands. these brothers of
ours,
Lying SO silent by night and by day,
Sleeping the years of their man hood away;
Give them the need they have won in the past
Give them the honors the future forecast
Give them the chapets they won in the strife:
Give them the aurels they lost with their life.

Destructive, Not Constructive.

A Democratic Congress had been
in session three months, with i'm
potts increasing and gold flowing
out. They might just as well have
been in the moon as in Washington,
for these danger-signals stirred
them to no action. Tariff and cur
rency are as they were. On the
first perilous changes are foreshad-
owed; On the second factions are at
