Our exchanges are again agitating
the question of fractional currency.
Here is what one of them says; "The
postal notes were devised to meet the
need of a form of currency which
could be used to send small sums by
mail; but they are not sufficient.
They are no safer than any other
form of currency, and the cost of pro-
curing them is a check upon their
use, and amounts to a considerable
tax upon any small business carried
on by mail. The only other resort is
to postage stamps, which are in all
ways unsuited to this use. Some
form of fractional currency procura-
BILE and redeemabie anywhere at its
face value is greatly to be desired. .
Postal notes are to be discontinued
after June Both.

A STRIKING ACHIEVEMENT - Ac-
cording to the cuckoo organs the
sweeping Republican triumphs in
every northern State are due to the
dissatisfaction of the masses with
the Democratic party because it has
failed to pass the Wilson bill. In
other words, the sorely perplexed
cuckoos assert that the people have
voted for the Republican party and
the Mckinley law because they want
the Wilson bill. The discovery that
citizens vote for protection because
they demand free trade is one of the
striking achievements of Cleveland

DEMOCRATIC TIMES THEN AND Now

DEMOCRATIC TIMES THEN AND Now.
The government receipts from GUS
toms duties since June 80, 1898, have
fallen to $92, 100000 from $13S,-
100000 during the corresponding
period a year ago; and a deficit is
the condition which now confronts
us. This is anti-Democratic. In
1885, when Andrew Jackson was
President, there was balance OF
$26, OOO.000 in the Treasury at the
end of the year; the whole national
debt of the United States was only
$37 900, the years interest upon it
was $328.2O; and the receipts from
customs, with no income tax, were
100000 in excess of the entire
Federal expenses.

John A. Logan, COMMANDMENT Chief of the
Grand Army of the Republic. in general or
ders No H. inaugurated Memorial Day. In
that general order we were directed that " il
other eyes grew dull, and other hands slack,
and other hearts cold in the solemn trust.
we shall keep it well as long as the light and
warmth of life remains in us" His wishes
and instructions have been faithfully obeyed,
and as his successor | call upon you, my
comrades, to again discharge this most sol
emn duty.
Each year our lines grow shorter here,
while they lengthen on the other side. We
have more graves to decorate and fewer
comrades to discharge the duty. Realizing
this, let us invite all the people, especially
the WOman's Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans,
and children of the public schools, to unite
with us in the service. In no better way can
we teach lessons of patriotism and prepare
those who are to take our places for the
high and responsible duties of American
citizens.
The commander indorses most heartily the
plan that has been very generally adopted in
late years, that of the attendance of the posts
of our organization upon some form OF
divine worship the Sunday preceding Memo
rial Day. This is a beautiful custom and
posts are urged to make arrangements for
once on Sunday, May u. Let the comrades
appear in uniform, with their badges and
colors, inviting, if expedent, the Sons of
Veterans to act as an escort, and the pres
ence of the Woman's Relief Corps, striving in
every way to make this a fitting preliminary
to our great service of memory and exalta-
ton to that magnificent and loyal army of
heroes of grateful nation,
Chaplains of poets are directed to report to
the Chaplain-in-Chief through the Depart

who fought in drense of the national unity"
And it was further resolved, that this be
known as Memorial Day" and that all flags

Al Important Railroad SUIT.

An interesting and important con.
test between the Grand Trunk rail-
road and the Central Vermont is set
for hearing at the United States cir
cult court now being held by Judge
Wheeler at Burlington. The bill filed
in the case alleges that in the reor-
ganization of the Central Vermont
company the Grand Trunk company
became shareholder to the extent
of 81 100000 of capital stock. In
der the Central Vermont's special
charter each shareholder had one
vote for every share held, but at the
session of the Vermont legislature Of
1892 an act was passed making the
general law, which allows any one
stakeholder to vote on only one-tenth
Of the capital stock of any company,
applicable to corporations organized
under special laws also. At the re-
cent annual meeting of the Central
Vermont company it was voted to is
sue an additional 81 100000 of cap
ital stock, and theGrand Trunk com
pany alleges that it is the PURPOSE to
give this stock as a bonus to those
buying Central Vermont bonds. The
bill also alleges that the law of 1892
