The Thinning Ranks.
one thing Is impressed upon our atten-
ton as we go on with this work from year
to year. How rapidly the number of
graves increases!
The Grand Army dinnishes The young
sters, who could scarcely carry the gun
they shouldered, have grown to ba grav-
haired men. We are all veterans now
True, there are just as many to render
this service. Indeed. there are more hands
and more flowers than ever before
Though the procession of veterans is
growing shorter and feebler, we find a.
new generation coming up, in whose hearts
burns the same fire of patriotic ardor. 1t
is fire which cannot go out while men
care for home. for wife and children; for
honor and liberty. This day, now a fixed
institution, will do more to keep the sacred
fire renewed than any other single in
nuence at work among our citizens.
Like the flag floating upon all our school
houses, 1t becomes a perpetual object les
son in patriotism.
There are those who affect to cry down
this matter of sentiment, who call patriot
ism foolish, and laugh at the old Latin
quotation about it's being sweet and proper
to die for ones country. Fortunately, the
nations existence does not hang upon such
craVenS. Patriotism is not mere senti-
ment 1t is q devotion as real and deep
as any human feeling. 1t is of the same
kind with love of he me. Of family, or Of
any close and binding relation When the
time comes the sentiment shows itself
Tomorrow, If the need should arise
million of men would take up arms for
liberty, to defend a principle, to fall, if
need be, as the men fell in the days of the
revolution or of the civil war
You cannot kill this spirit by rid;cule
1t is deep and strong as a gulf stream of
sentim ent. setting forever in one direc-
ton. warminaf al the shores that it
touches. 1t Is more than sickly sentiment
talsm
The Sentiment of the Day.
1t is a wholesome sentiment which is
fcstered by the simple rites Of this holy

THE FISH Jaw

Tm TNEs, rs well as many othcrs,
has been under the impression that
angling weuld BE- permitted after July
LIST, but such Is no, the case. We were
asked once before concerning this by one
OF our Echo readers, and answered that
the law would be- out on the 1T Of July.
This We did after reading over the law
and consulting with others In regard to
it, Interpretation. A. will be seen,
sections n and II. which We reprint
below, are conflicting, aud it was the
opinion of prominent attorneys that
fishing would be alright after the 1T.
This conclusion, however, has been set
aside, for tho Attorney General has de.
cided that 90 h,hing shall he done bee

Commissioner has written Commissioner
W. n branch 90 this effect, with in.
siruciions 20 prosecute every yiolalor Of
this law.
Following are the two sections of the
law ~ passed, and the Attorney General
bases his decision on section 10;
See. n, Il shall bc unlawful for any
person 20 take any fish, except carp,
chubs, sucker. and mullet from any OF
the waters OF this state, by any means

Il. L. o. RECEIVERS.

An order. which has been signed by
United States Circuit Judge Coil, allows
Messrs John X. Cowen and Oscar G. Muir
raw each $4,000 a month salary for their
services as receivers of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad.
This compensation is to be calculated
from the Goth of last February, when the
receivers were appointed. Anyinterested
person is allowed by the order to move
for its modification upon ten days notice
to the receiver.
In their petition for a monthly allow
ance in the form of salary, the receivers
say that since their appointment they have
devoted their entire time to the admins
tration of their trust to the exclusion of
all other business, and the interests i'll
their charge will require their exclusive
time and attention during their term rs
receivers.
The action of the receivers in negoti-
ating the $1,000, 900 receivers certificates
and the form of certificate to be issued for
the loan were approved in an order sign
ed by Judge Golf.
In their report to the court the recciv-
ers stated that they had arranged with
several large banking houses to undertake
upon fair terms of compensation the sale
of the certificates at par. 1t has been
agreed to issue the certificates payable to
the Mercantile Trust Company of New
York or bearer Four hundred of them
are to be for 10000 each, 100 for $4,000
each and 200 for 81 900 each. They are
to bear 6 per cent. interest and to be pay
able in gold on June |. 1899, with the OPP
ton of redemption on June /, 1897.

GOAL WILL GO UP.

There is a strong indication of 4 dcci
ded advance in the price Of coal in the
near future Retail dealers say they cN
pcct an advance of at least fifty cents Il
ton within the next few months. At pres
cnt there are strong PROSPECTS OF an IN
crease of twenty-five cents Il ton by July |.
The activity in the market is brought
about by the mining operators keeping the
output down to small amount Many
of the mines are being run by small
force of miners, and shipments to the
cities markets are quite small This cur
tailment of production, it is said, is made
purposely to stir up general activity in the
coal business and strengthen prices. The
owners and operators, it is further claim
ed, are pursuing this course to promote
their own interests. The miners are
equally as well satisfied, because they be
licve that an advance in prices will mean
better wages for them.
With the anticipation of an advance in
prices, retail coal dealers are carrying Il
very light stock, and only taking orders to
be filed at once. \ dealer said Tuesday:
From present indications, fully believe
there will be an advance within the next
month Small nut coal is now selling at
the lowest tigue of any grade, So Il ton,

price, ST. 10 atom. \ discount often cents
ton is allowed on all large orders for
high priced coal. No discount is given
on the low grades.

DELEGATES At LARGE.
The following is from the Baltimore

The following is from the Baltimore
Nr,c,:
It is said by close friends of Senator
Arthur p. German that the dele gates at
large from MARYLAND to the National Dem
ocratic Convention have been selected,
and that the choice will be ratified by the
State Convention, which meets at Ford's
On.ra House on Wednesday, June 10th.
The zen .lcmen are as follows:
Mr.. John E. Hurst, Democratic candi-
date for Governor last year
Gen. John Gill of r., president of the
Mercantile Trust and Deposit Co.
Mr.. Edwin Wartield, president of the
of the State Senate in 1896 and Surveyor
of the Port during Mr.: Clevel .nds first
administration.
Mr.. James Alfred Pearce of Kent coun-
ty, Mr.. Pearce is a prominent independent,
and was the Democratic nominee for
State Senator in Keut last year, but was
defeated by Charles +. Wcstcott by a ma
iority of three votes. Mr.. Pearce is now
one of the vice-presidents Of the Civil
Service Reform Association, of which
body he has been Il member for several
years.
In speaking of the plans of the German
followers in regard to the State Conven-
ton, one of the Senator's closest personal
friends said to a reporter for the Netcs:
LAS Mr. German has from time to time
reiterated, he will not go the Chicago
Convention The Senator does not de-
sire to be mixed up with the national cam
paign this year in any way, and VIII con
Sequcntly decline re"ppointment as a
member of the National Committee. HIS

bat he has been firm in his refusal to do
so.
In reg ,rd to Mr.. Cowen as one of the
delegates at large to Chicago, Mr.. Hurst
and his friend settled that question in
very short order There has been gen
cral desire expressed from all parts of the
State for the selection of the Democratic
nominee for Governor of last year as one
of the delegates at large. and Mr.. Hurst
expressed his willingness to go. but not
with Mr. Cowcn as one of his colleagues.
"MeSsrs Wartcld, Gill and Pearce are
acceptable to Mr. Hurst and his friends.
and will probably be sent as his colleag-
ucS. If the delegates to the State Conven-
ton from any of the Congressional DIS
tricts desire to have Mr.. Cowen represent
them as one of the district delegates, he
NAV be sent in that capacity, but not as Il
delegate at large.
The regulars who are in sympathy
with Senator German, and who supported
the State ticket last year, will control the
State Convention, will frame the platform
and elect the delegates to Chicago. lfany
independents are honored, they will be
such men rs Mr. Pearce. Mr.. Gill, Mr..
Skipwith Wilmer, or Mr. Randolph Bar
ton, who supported the regular ticket"

WILL BIZ STEVENSON.

The silver democrats in Congress con
slider the action of the conventions in Ken
lucky and Niryil il will give some shape
to the democratic silver campaign which
up to the present time has i,rcl carried on
without any particular thought concern
ing candidates. 1t is held that the dccla-
rations of these conventions, both beng
for silver, will probably start a boom for
some candidate that will have Il tendency
to crvstalliZc the sentiment of the silver
wing of the party There is strong feel
ing among Southern men in favor of Vice
President Stevenson, and the prediction
is made that as soon as one State convcn-
ton declares in favor of his nomination
others will follow the example set them.
At the same time Mr.. Stevenson's silence
upon the money question Is having the Ell
feet of antagoniZing the extreme silver
men, who insist that there must he no
doubt concerning the views of the man
who is to become the leader.
There are many democrats" says the
New York Times. "whO favor the silver
movement because they know that the
present financial system of the United
States does not give to the South and
Southwest the supply of currency requir-
ed. They think that this can be supplied
through the coinage or purchase OF silver.
If these men can be shown that the gold
standard can be maintained and that all
parts of the country can be supplied with
a safe, elastic and sufficient currency, it
ought to be possible to win them from the
silver movement. 1t is to an agreement
on this basis thot the Sound-money lead
erS of the democratic party should devote
their energies. As 4 matter of fact it is
perfectly practicable to give the whole
country and every section of it an ample
supply of perfectly sound currency, abso-
lutely governed by the gold standard, and
far better adapted to the needs of the
agricultural communities than any currcn-
cy based on silver could ever be. This
can he done by bank notes, and there
should be presented by the gold-standard
advocates ut Chicago platform advoca-
ting Il bank-note currency property sccur-
ed and uniformly redcemablc in gold or
its equivalent

THE PRIMARIES TOMORROW.

The Democrats ofthis county should
remember that the primary meetings
will be held in the several districts to-
morrow at o'clock. All who feel an
interest in the party organization will
attend and let their voices be heard III
the selection of delegates. We are on
the eve of an important Presidential
election. and vital issues, involving the
welfare of millions. are engaging the
attention of the people. The country
is evidently nearing a crisis in imam
cial matters, and the best wisdom and
the most intelligent craftsmanship
alone can avert very serious condl-
ton of affairs. Sectional interests are
again coming into conflict. Party
lines are being ignored in certain states
under the influence of financial delu-
sions which appear to be controlling
the masses. Able leaders in Congress
are taking opposite views upon the
money question, and the people are
reading and thinking. Every intelli-
gent man should form some opinion
and, when summoned by his party to
attend the primaries, should by his
vote express his preference. Contests
in the primaries have tendency to
stimulate the vitality of party organi-
zatiol. We know of no contests in
this county, but the voters should,
nevertheless, see to it that faithful and
consistent representatives are chosen
as delegates to the Convention.
We hope that the Democratic prl-
maries tomorrow may be largely at
tended, and that the vigor and har-
mony. prevailing in the party in this
county. may be made manifest.

DANCER TO TUE PUBLIC CREDIT.

OF course the House of Representa-
tives passed the river and harbor ap-
preparation bill promptly over thePresl-
dents veto, says the Philadelphia
Times. The same considerations that
led to its original passage were still
potent, notwithstanding the President S
objections. Every member had got "a
piece of the pork" Each man recog-
nized the extravaganza OF the bill. but
he could not give up his own local APP
priations.
The Senate has passed the bill
by still greater proportionate major
ity, the Senate being even more IRE
sponsibly extravagant than the House.
Neither house will take any steps what
ever to provide the means to pay these
appropriations and others that aggre-
gate millions more than any possible
income. This has proved the most
impotent and the most reckless Con-
gress in the whole history of the gov
eminent. 1t would seem as though its
only purpose was to destroy the public
credit.
Such would certainly be the effect
of the Populist measure passed by the
Senate Tuesday, if it could become
law. This forbids the issue ofintcrest-
hearing bonds for any purpose what
ever without the further authorization
of Congress, which is not to be given.
This Congress has provided for eNpen-
ditures far in excess Of the revenues.
and what is even worse. has refused to
do anything to check the constant de-
mand upon the Treasury for gold, and
the Senate now proposes to prohibit
the Executive from exercising the only
power it has to meet either of these
drains. The effect of the Butler resO-
luton would be simply the suspension
of payments by the United States.
The House will not concur in this
action, nor could it be passed over the
Presidents veto, but the impression
made by its passage i'll the Senate can
not fail to lie disastrous. unless it have
the effect of arousing the country to
the actual peril of the present situa-
ton and the criminal folly of making
terms with the Populistic wreckers Of
either party. The country has one
safeguard now in the known tirmness
of the President In electing his sue
cessor it cannot afford to take Il leap in
the dark
