Moving to Town.

Nearly every business man has
some especial point at which he
aims, and keeps in view some
place he expects to stop. One
mans object is one thing, and an
others is another. Many farmers,
though, seem to think that the
best of all things is attained when
they are able to drop work and
"move to town" Every year the
villages and county-seats find their
citizenship enlarged and improved
by the accessions of well-to-do far
mers, who having acquired a COM
petence, have made up their minds
that the. best place to spend their
remaining days is away from scenes
in which their labor has been per-
formed. It happens some times
that these changes result happily,
but in great many instances "mov-
ing to town. proves mistake.
There are several reasons why
this is the case: In the first place,
the change is usually made from a
very active to a very quiet life. A
man who has been used to working
hard all his days suddenly begins
to spend his time in something
akin to idleness, and soon becom-
ing discontinued, to relieve the
tediun, Of the days which drag by
SO slowly he makes up his mind to
go into other business. There are
plenty of places in which to invest
his accumulated capital, and in his
anxiety to become actively employ
ed he is not always sufficiently care
full as to just how and where his in
vestment is made. The transfer
from successful farmer to sue
cessfnl business man, made after
middle age has arrived, is not usual
~ satisfactorily achieved.
More than this, the complete
change in mode of living frequent.
~ has an unfortunate effect on
health. An active life accompanied
by greater degree of self-denial
than is found in most pursuits, is
succeeded by a life of ease, in which
The manner Of living very often be-
romes quite luxurious. The healthy
farmer in this case becomes an in
valid townsman; and we have now
in our mind severals instances in
which men of unusual vigor have
1eclinced and died in a very short
time after making this change.
From all Of which at is not to be
inferred that it is a change never
20 be made; but it certainly is q
change which should be considered
With the greatest deliberation, and
contaminated only when one is
thoroughly satisfied that the very
BEST reason will justify the step

Hurrah for Colorado's fearless and he

do have to have it coined in Mexico and

Bright idea that! By the time Colora-
dos fearless but foolish governor was to
land in the penitentiary for dealing in
counterfeit and spurious money, he and
the cranks supporting him would begin
to discover that the laws and constitu-
ton Of these United States cannot be vio-
lated with impunity. Also, the govern
ments Of Canada and Mexico would more
than likely object to coming money with
ia Their domain for foreign power, un-
less some treaty or agreement had been
first made with Congress whereby Uncle
Sam and themselves were consulted and
the details mutually agreed upon.

rations for Memorial Day.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: l am strongly
interested in the Sons of Veterans, and am
proud to bear the honor of being one The
several Orders which have been instituted are
striving to perpetuate the memory of the SOL
diers and sailors who gave them the liberty
they are pleased to enjoy.
We desire to build up our Order where it does
not interfere with other established organiZa-
tions. We have no desire tQ force any growth,
but leave our merits to command the recognition
OF GA. r. comrades and their sons. Our several
Posts in this Department are all regularly
organized memorial societies. The cardinal
principles are to perpetuate the GAR. through
our Posts, following entirely in their path to
carry out their plans and placing in direct line
with us our sons. but not admitting them as
comrades into our Posts, but having them es-
tablsh distinct organizations which shall be
jealousy nurtured by our direct supervision.
The time for the GAR. to take action in the
Sons of Veterans cause is drawing near; it is
not our desire to supersede the veteran corps,
but we stand shoulder to shoulder to fill up
the ranks when we are ordered into line.
In this city our Posts of Sons of Veterans are
taking up the work of the GAR. We are con-
stituted as funeral detail and oficiate when
ever occasion offers. We mark every soldiers
grave on Memorial Day with our own flags and
flowers. Our Post will order 2 600 flags for this
years work, and two large trucks will be used
to carry our flowers. Our drum corps of 20
pieces are already signed in contract for Me-
mortal Day. We shall be represented in the
parade with over 100 comrades and officers.
The GA r.. Committee will accord US repre-
sentatives at their Convention with the City
Committee to lay out the line of work for the
Memorial services. 1t is the purpose of Marcus
L. Ward Post. Is, s. of ", to volunteer to place
the GAR. flag markers, in connection with
the s. of V. markers, on every soldiers grave,
leaving the GAR. Posts the work of super
vision only.
This will necessarily devolve on the s. of V.
after q year or so. We are ready to commence
action and trust that our merit will commend
itself to every GAR. man and the veteran
soldier.-ABRAM DAVIS, Commander, Post Ii,
