NATIONHL ENCANpNENT 2
IF so, THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
WILL FURNISH YOU A
FREE TICKET.

Every comrade wants to 60 to the
great National Encampment at Louis
vile, next September; but the question
of transportation is very serious one to
many. The NATIONAL TRIBUNE will
help out this year, as it has done before.
We will furnish round-trip, first
class ticket to anyone who will get us
up a club of subscribers in his town.
The size of the club will be proportional
to the distance from Louisville, but
everywhere it will be of such size as to
allow anyone to easily secure ticket
by little effort.
In this way comrades can readily
club together to get ticket for one of
their number, while securing The Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE for themselves, and
Posts may provide for such of their
number as feel otherwise unable to go.
Write to us at once in regard to the
place from which you desire tickets and
the number of subscribers required.
Go to work at once securing sub
scribers, informing us as each is sent in
that you want it applied ON an Encamp-
ment ticket.
We will make the same offer for SUBJ
scribers to The american Farmer. Every
farmer wants and should have SO good
and SO cheap paper as The American
Farmer, and any comrade, or the son or
daughter Of veteran, should be able to
secure a ticket with very little effort.
Consider this at once, and writs to

PERSONAL.

Col Geo. w. F. Vernon, Col. John G. Taylor
and DIR. Geo. B. Graham appeared before the
Baltimore City Council last week as a commit
tee from the Department of Maryland. GAR.
to advocate the passage of the resolution before
that body directing the teaching of military
tactics in the public schools Col. Vernon
made the address, which was very forcible.
The 10th annual report of the Educational
Council of Onondago County. N. Y, contains an
admirably written paper on Gen. George III.
Thomas by Comrads w. II. Scott, formerly of
the 22d Mich.
"Col Woodwork" says q Boston paper,
"told some good stories about Gen. Butler.
lie said that Butler himself told as late as 1884
that he never knew the real reason why he was
deprived of his military command by Gen.
Grant. 1t was only q few years ago that
Woodwork got the facts from Grants brother
in-law, Maj. Dent, who was the staff officer sent
with the order for Buffers relief. He said that
while no reason was openly given ut the time,
Butler was actually displaced because he was
not graduate of West Point. This would not
appear on the face Of it to be sufficient cause;
but Grant explained 1t to Dent one day N the
course of confidential interview. If said
he, Il were to send Butler a specific order to do
something with his army, he might obey and
hs might not. He was too able and too original
not to reason himself into the belief that
might have given different instructions if
knew all that he knew of the local situation.
He. therefore. almost always had plan OF his
own that he thought was better than mine or
anybody else's; so that could mover tell just
what he would do or where he would be at
given tmo OF course that was fatal to any
systematic campaign. and had to replace him
with West Pointer, whose first lesson in war
is the necessity of prompt obedience to the
Commanding General. Butler was too brilliant
to be reliable"

Farmers Institute, held at Vicksburg, Miss,

NEWSPAPER men about Washington
justly complain of the great difficulty
about obtaining information under this
Administration. The disposition among
all the officials is to treat public affairs
as if they were exclusively private
matters, with which the public press has
no business. This is particularly true
of the State Department, which wants
to shroud all its operations in impene-
trable mystery, and resent any effort of
the correspondents to find out what is
going on. This is in strong contrast
with the course of previous Administra-
tions, and the older correspondents, par
ticularly, recall with regret the frank
ness of Gen. Grant and his official
family. Gen. Grant had infinitely
larger diplomatic matters to deal with
than the present Administration, yet he
and his Secretary of State took the
proper view that the public had entire
right to know everything that was going
ON, and the press was fully informed from
day to day of whatever happened.

THE NEXT SENATE.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: How will
the next Senate stand? Will the Republi-
cans have majority and il so, how much
of a one ?-W. r. FRENCH, Miser, Tenn.
The next Senate will have 80 Demo
Gratis, 6 Independents, and 43 Republi-
cans There are IS Senators, all told,
so 40 is the number necessary for a
majority. The Republicans, falling short
by two, unless they can recruit their
ranks from the six Independents, will
not be able to pass any partisan measures
of Importance. Of course, on non-parti-
san questions and minor affairs it will
always be easy to get vote, but on party
questions there will be, in all probability,
prolonged struggles. If the Democrats
and Populists should unite, they would
have amajority, but the union is in every
way unlikely. What is more probable
is that the Republicans can win over
on some questions-two or three of these
six Independents. PETER was Repub-
lican ere he became q Populist; Stewart,
of Nevada, would be a Republican loved
he not silver more, and Jones, of the
same State, is Of the same sympathies
Scratch Allen, Of Nebraska, and he
would prove a Democrat, and Butler,
from North Carolina, is as Democratic
as PETER is Republican. Kyle, of South
Dakota, is an Independent, pure and
simple, with no special predictions for
either Republicans or Democrats. So
these six Senators-Pefer, Allen, Stew
art, Jones, Kyle, and Butler-hold the
key to the situation, and can harass either
party, though unable to do anything by
themselves. But the 43 Republicans are
not to be treated lightly. If they can.
not do anything for lack of two more
allies, neither can anyone else do any
thing without them. The situation looks
rather hopeless as far as any special
measures are concerned.
Another element to add to the doubt
of the Senate is the probable admission
of Utah as State. She will most Iikel,
be admitted sometime during the mex
session, and will Immediately send hel
two Senators to Washington. This vii
raise the number necessary for a ma
jority-making it as. If the two Sena
] tors be Republican, there will still be M
majority, for the Republicans would lacl
one of the desired number. If the,
should.add their strength to the Demo
cratic side-swelling the number to Al
, the race would be closer. The Republi
! cans would have to win three friend

COMRADES: In rallying for the great
battle for your rights do not forget
your neutrality-suspicious. 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 a harder fight
during the next session of Congress than

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. 1t can
do more than any other paper or agency
can.
Therefore, it is to yosr interest to
build up the paper to the utmost, and
make it as strong as possible in every
community. The more subscribers it
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 fght~now,
and THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE will lead.
Let it head column of at least 100000
subscribers. Then all the power of the
Solid South cannot prevail against it.
Help us now, and by SO doing help
yourselves most effectively.
