nounced two large plants contracted for
near Baltimore. This week we have the
pleasant news of contract for the con-
struction of the biggest plant yet known
in this country, The Laughlin Nail

entered into contract with Pittsburg

Martins Ferry, o., of 10 large mills,

LISTEN TO THE BUGLE CALL.

COMRADES In rallying for the great
battle for your rights do not forget
your standard-b earer-THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE Most necessary to your bat
tie is it that it should be made as strong
rs 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 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 your 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 a 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 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.

A SHARP pang will 60 through many
thousand hearts at the announcement of
the death of genial, kindly, much-loved
John Taylor, for many years Quar-
termaster-General of the Grand Army
of the Republic. 1t took place at bis
home, in Philadelphia, Saturday, Jan. 5,
and came most Unexpectedly. He had
been suffering from heavy cold, which
suddenly developed into pneumonia.
Comrade Taylor was a Philadelphia
boy, born and bred, and was clerk at
the outbreak of the war. He enlisted
at once in Co. Z, I'd Pa, and by good
soldiership in the Peninsular campaign
rose through all the grades to a Lieu
tenancy. He was repeatedly wounded,
and in the Wilderness was taken pris-
oner. Though he made repeated and
daring attempts to escape, he was kept
in confinement until exchanged in March,
1865. He returned to Philadelphia, and
when the Grand Army was organized he
became a member of Schuyler Post, and
was most efficient in building it up. He
became Assistant Quartermaster-G General
for the Department of Pennsylvania, and
then Commander of the Department. In
1882 he was appointed Quartermaster-
General by COMMANDMENTS Chief Van
Der WORT, and was reappointed by
every succeeding COMMANDMENTS Chief
until 1898, when he resigned. He was
prominent in Philadelphia politics, and
in 1890 was elected to the important
position of Receiver of Taxes, to which
he was reelected in 1898 by an increased
vote. One Of the enduring monuments
to his memory was the establishment of
the Soldiers and Sailors Home at Erie,
Pa, for which he labored hard and sue
cessfully.

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE takes
particular pleasure in noting the rapid
development of the tin-plate industry in
the United States, because, next to the
pensioners. there has been nothing so
persistently and viciously lied about.
And it was done by the very same men
and newspapers. The men who frothed
at the mouth al the mention Of a Union
soldier drawing pension was pretty
sure to 90 into spasms at the idea of
making our own tin-plate, and retaining
at home for the employment of our own
people Of the s25,000,000 year which
we had been paying England for our
tin-plate. The men who were always
dead sure that the pension list was
honey-combcd with corruption were the
ones who went about the country with
tin cups as object-lessons of the wicked
ness of the Mckinley Bill, and who
walled about the robber-tax on the
workingman's dinner-pail. The papers
which set no bounds to the denunciatiOn
of the bounty.jumpers, dead-beats and
frauds on the pension-list we're intemper-
ate in their sneers at every effort made
to introduce the tin-plate industry into
this country. They ridiculed it as a
scheme solely for campaign effect /;
denounced the factories as mere
political plants" made derisive
pictures and descriptions of the
first establishments put in operation,
ridiculed the working force, exulted
when one was closed down. All the
same, the industry went on growing with
great rapidity in spite of the hard times
and the unfriendly legislation which fol-
lowed. 1t has done remarkably well.
Not only have the original establish
ments generally maintained themselves,
but most of them have greatly extended
their operations, employed more men,
and advanced toward supplying the
country with all the tin-plate needed.

THE unexpected death of Gen. Philip
Sidney Post in Washington last Sunday,
deprives the country of one of its ablest
and purest public men, and of vet
eran who rendered it superb service. No
man could point to better record than
his. He entered the service in 1861 as
Second Lieutenant in the 59th Ill, and
bis sterling soldiership brought him the
Majority Of the regiment in a few
months. He showed the most conspicu-
Gus gallantry at Pea Ridge, and was
left On the field for dead. But splen-
did constitution and a powerful will
carried him through. He recovered to
be promoted Colonel, and the Fall OF
1862 saw him in command Of q
brigade in the Army of the
SuIlDSTlauu. lle COlllluuSu III thlS
position until the command of di-
vision came to him on the Atlanta
campaign. At the battle of Nashville
he was again SO terribly wounded as to
be thought killed. He was brevetted
for gallantry on that field, and after the
war was in command of Western Texas.
The next year he was appointed Consul
General to Vienna, Austria, by Gen.
Grant, and remained there five years.
In 1886 he was Commander of the De-
partment of Illinois, GAR, and was
always a valued and influential member
Of the National Encampment. He was
member OF the 50th, 51st, SD, and
SD Congresses, and had been reelected
to the 54th. Gen. Post was a genial, COM
panionable, whole-souled man, with a
highly cultivated mind, and wide range
of information. His loss viii be deeply
felt all over the country.

THE SONS OF VETERANS.

The consolidated report Of the Adju-
tant-G General of the Sons Of Veterans for
the quarter ending Sept so, 1894, makes
very interesting study to every friend
of the Order. II will be still more in
teresting to preserve for future reference,
as it marks the turning point in the
Orders career, when it reached ebb tide
in membership, and whence the swelling
increase of after years may be reckoned-
1t is curious to note how closely this
lowest point approximate that reached
by the Grand Army of the Republic
during the hard times of 1873 and sue
ceeding years. Dec. 81, 1876, the
membership in good standing Of the
GAR. had fallen to 26,S99. That of
the Sons of Veterans is now 32,62l.
The following figures of the membership
of the GAR. each year shows its subse-
quent growth, and Will furnish encour-
agement to the friends of the S. Of ":

agement to the friends of the S. of ":

The Sons of Veterans have far more
material with which to build than the
Grand Army had. In some respects it
is more hopeful material, because it is
composed of young men just entering into
| life, full of enthusiasm, patriotism, and
love of country. Very many of the vet
Grams had been so wearied by the fatigues
and exactions of their long service that
they almost hated anything that re-
minded them of military service. They
were deeply intent on catching up their
places in the procession Of life, which
they had lost by entering the service,
and in getting a competency. They
wanted to get their business established,
their farms developed, their mortgages
paid of, their children educated.
On the other hand, the Sons of Vet
Grams are ready to enter into an organ
ization which cannot help being of great
service to the country; which will give
them wide circle of valuable acquaint-
ances; which will bring them into close
relations with natural friends and allies.
While the objects of the Order appeal
to their best instincts, it offers distinct
and palpable advantages to them indi-
vidually; and if these are presented
wisely, and the management Of the
Order is intelligent, there can be no
question of its rapid and solid growth.
1t has the highest and broadest field Of
any organization in the country, and
should, within few years, have mem
bership of 100000.
Analysis of the Adjutant- Generals
report shows that, In spite OF the hard
times and other discouragements, the
work of rebuilding has made fair head
way, and this gives hope for the future.
During the quarter, 40 new Camps,
with membership of 900, were in
stituted, and 1l2 Camps, with a mem
bership of 2,469, were reingtated; max
ing total gain of 152 Camps and
1859 members. Against this is loss

charged; 6,006 suspended; and other

New Camps were installed in the fol-
lowing States:

Pennsylvania has the largest number

comes next, with 139 Camps and 4.514
