Bersaglieri Guard and the Fourth

BersaglierI Guard and the Fourth.
EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: Will you permit
me to say word through your columns
on what may properly be considered q
subject Of general interest? Tire Bersag-
Iieri Guard accepted an invitation to join
with other organizations in the celebra-
ton of the Fourth of July. Last even
ing, at a late hour, l was informed by the
Grand Marshal, L. +. Breuner. that it
was desired that none but the American
flag should be carried in the procession
on the Fourth.
A meeting was called of the company,
and the matter laid before them. Our
constitution and bylaws require that the
American flag and the Italian flag (which
latter is considered as the banner of our
organization, the same as other societies
have their banners) shall always be car
ried when on public parade, the Ameri-
can flag to have the place of honor, on
the right. Our bylaws can only be
changed at the first meeting in June OF
each year, SO it would be a violation
thereof if we turned out without our
banner.
Therefore it was decided that we can
not participate. as we would like to, with
our fellow citizens in their parade to-
morrow. Having great reverence for the
institutions of our adopted country, we
desired to show our appreciation by join
ing in the public celebration, but we bow
to the decision of the committee having
the ceremonies in charge.

DR.. G. HART MERRIAM, of the Division
of Ornithology, Department of Agricult-
ure. Washington, has just made q report
that is of special interest to farmers and
horticulturists. He says that long and
scientific investigation establishes as fact
that the hawk, owl, black bird, crow and
many other of our birds are not the
enemies Of producers from the soil. The
popular notions on the subject he pro-
nounces erroneous, and he condemns the
bounty offerings of some States for the
destruction of these birds. Ninety-five
per cent. of the birds. he insists, use food
that is beneficial to the farmer and not
injurious to his interests. For instance,
these birds consume insects, feld-mice,
Rrasshoppers, criokets, bugs. grubs and
the like, which are injurious to crops of
The record-union., 1895-07-04

all kinds. It has been charged against
the crow that it eats. corn and destroys
poultry and eggs. 1t il found that while
twenty-five per cent. Of the food of the
crow is corn, he chooses mostly the waste
corn; he eats, pursues and takes noxious
insects and small animals that are de-
structive to crops; and as to eggs, it is
found that the crow does eat them to
very limited extent for the sake of the
lime quality of the she'll. Thus is science
constantly disabusing our beliefs of error.

THE DAY.

It In very gratifying to the patriotic
citizen to learn that the anniversary Of
the Republic is to be celebrated to-day
with greater ::fervor and amore generally
than for some years past. 1t is the result
of the deepened conviction in the hearts
of Americans. that the nation deserves
more at their hands than the most de-
voted can give; that since the assault OF
last summer upon the Government. and
the defiance Of its authority, it is neces-
sary that true citizenship should manifest
its greater concern for the preservation Of
the liberties of Americans. It is due also
to the fact that the era of depression is
giving way before the wave of returning
prosperity, and that restored confidence
is taking the place of shaken faith in the
industries. commerce and finances of the
country.
The heartiness with which the people
are engaging in to-day's celebration testl
fes also to q deep and abiding faith in
free institutions, that may we'll make the
agencies of anarchism and disorder pause
in their mad scheme to overthrow orderly
government. In the history ofthe world
no such strident step was taken in the
march of civilization as that which inau-
gurated the independence of the Amer
loan people from kingly rule and mon
archioal oppression. Since that hour.
one hundred and nineteen years ago.
there has been taken no backward step.
In reality through sll hesitation. obstruc-
ton and resistance, the movement of free
institutions has been forward, and life,
liberty and the right to seek happiness
have been sacredly guarded, and their
bulwarks broken by no assault.
What the Declaration of Independence
did for the race of man in 1776. 1t has been
doing ever since and without cessation,
despite the saddened brows of pessimists,
the frowns of haters Of free institutions,
the fears of the timid and the forebodings
of the cowardly.
Let the people celebrate this superb
continued triumph of more that GEN.
tury with unbounded enthusiasm. Let
them not fear of OVERRIDING. Mere shout
ing is not necessarily evidence of patriotic
feeling, but assuredly silence is not in
dicative OF devotion to country. 1t is the
tone and character of expression that
gives it value and Importance.
There Ia no a. land under the sun
where there ia so much reason for the
people to rejoice that they are citizens.
We are. from the one end of the land to
the other. as a people. in the enjoyment
of more and greater privileges, more and
greater liberties, more aud greater
physical blessings, intellectual oppor-
tunities and bodily comforts than any
other people. The wages of industry are
higher. the reward of labor greater, the
opportunities more nearly equal for all,
than anywhere else on the Makers foot
stool. 1t is fitting that people so blessed,
where the door is open to everyone to ad-
vance, and no man is impeded by law,
caste or condition from moving forward
and upward, should celebrate the national
anniversary with enthusiasm, with cere-
monial, and with rejoicing that shall
aeho to the remotest corners of civiliza-
ton.
