'GROVER CLEVELAND"
Nelson Appleton Miles, was born at West
minister, Mass, in 1899, and with the ex-
ception of Gen. Sheridan, is the youngest
officer that ever held that position.
His appointment possesses more than
ordinary interest from the fact that he
is the first occupant of the high office who
has not been graduated from the west
Point Military Academy. 1t can liter
ally be said that he fought his way up the
ladder.
The outbreak of the war found him a
clerk In d crockery store in Boston. After
six months course in a temporary military
school In that city, which was paid for
by his employer, young Miles went to the
front as second lieutenant in the Twenty
second Massachusetts, Volunteers. He rose
through successive grades to that OF major
general, being brevetted for conspicuous

At the close of the hostilities he entered
the regular army as colonel OF the Fortieth
Infantry.
1t is as an Indian fighter that he is
best known TO the younger generation.
He gained enviable distinction by his
hard fighting aud brilliant campaigns

LISTEN TO THE BUaLE CALL.

COMRADES: In rallying for the great
battle for your rights do not forget
your standard-bearerTHE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE. Most necessary to your bat
tie is it that it should be made as strong
as possible for the great contest this
Winter.
We are going to have harder fight
during the next session of Congress than
ever. Our enemies in Congress are far
from being satisfied with the injury they
have already done us, but contemplate
still another raid.
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE is the main
friend and champion the comrades have
here at the National Capital and in the
whole country. 1t will make a stub
born fight to save the veterans from the
wicked robbery contemplated. Ii can
do more than any other paper or agency
can.
Therefore, it is to your interest to
build up the paper to the utmost, and
make it as strong as possible in every
community. The more subscribers 1t
has behind it, the stronger battle it can
make for you and all comrades. There
fore, see that your name is on its lists,
and that as many as possible of your ac-
quaintances subscribe for it. If not
already subscriber send in your name
at once, and get at least one more. Get
up a club if possible. We want every
veteran to rally around our flag for one
more effort. We all have to fight now,
and THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE will lead.
Let it head column Of at least 250, 900
subscribers. Then all the power of the
Solid South cannot prevail against it.
Help us now, and by so doing help
yourselves most effectively.

CAREFULLY collected statistics by the
Secretary of State of Ohio show
that there has been terrible shrinkage
in the value of farming lands of that
State for the IL months ended June 80,
1894. The amount of this foots up the
enormous sum of s50,OOO,OOO, while
the mortgaged Indebtedness increased
$8,00O,000. Tariff Deform comes high,
but some people would have it.

The aggregate annual cost of raising
all these TO Sc a month would be
81 ,414,774, but it would carry a great
increase Of comfort and happiness to
nearly 10000 poor homes, and be a
thousandfold worth its cost. Besides, il
would be an act Of eminent justice and
National honor. 1t is absurd to the
last degree to think of man having
81 worth of diarrhea, or 50 25 worth of
rheumatism, or s2.33t worth of ma

pathic about the war, its dangers and
hardships. As Gen. Harrison once said
