Commander Walker on the New York Parade

Commander Walker on the New York Parade
Commander-in-C Chief Walker of the
Grand Army of the Republic has made
public the correspondence regarding the
proposed celebration of the Fourth of July
in New York city. He says he will con-
tinue to insist that the Grand Army of the
Republic shall not take any part in the eel
ebration if it is arranged for war veterans
of the north and south to march together.
1t is his intention to issue general order
in due time prohibiting veterans of the
Union cause from participating in the cele
bration.
Il can see the sentimental side of the
controversy said he, ''but there is prin-
ciple involved, and ! propose to stand
firmly by that principle. Either the south
or the north was wholly right in the con-
tiict, and, believing as do, | shall always
oppose any demonstration that will tend to
giority the cause for which the south
fought"
EX-Union soldiers will not be surprised
at the attitude of Commander-in-C Chief
Walker regarding the proposed Blue and
Gray parade. When first asked to give
his approval to the scheme, General
Walker did not hesitate to say that, in his
opinion, the Confederate flag ought not to
be displayed, neither should the Confeder-
ate uniform be worn in the parade He
was informed by the chairman of the exec
utive committee that the only flag to be
carried in the parade was the Stars and
Stripes, but he could get no assurances
about the uniform. After striving fruit
lessly to secure from the promoters Of the
plan an agreement that the gray uniform
of the ''Lost Cause should not be worn,
the commander-in- chief reluctantly declined
to sanction the participation by the Grand
ARMY of the Republic in the marching
column. In an interview he has expressed
his sentiments.
eve cannot, as an organization, JOIN in
any public demonstration and march with
those who fought against the Union clothed
in uniform of a cause that was shot to
death by the Grand Army of the Republic
thirty years ago. 1t is intended it is said,
that there shall be but one flag and that OF
the United States, in the parade Why
not require the same as to uniform? The
sooner those who wore the gray shall cease
trying to symbolic the ''Lost Cause" by
flag or uniform and shall refrain from rep
resenting themselves as a distinct part Of
the people, the sooner will fall realization
of patriotism and fraternity be brought
about"

Death of Edwin Moultrop formerly of West.
minister.

The Foxboro, Mass, Reporter Of March
IA says: Edwin Moultrop, who was widely
known in this vicinity, died in Foxboro,
March 9, at p NJ. He was born in West
Westminster, VT, March 10, 1886, and
was educated in the town schools and also
in the Academy at Saxtons River.
When q years old he moved to Fra
m ngham, Mass, which has been his home
until the last four years. He was married
in 1862 to Miss Lucy Rice of Marlboro,
Mass, who with two children survives
him.
In 1S6, he accepted the position of fore
man on l. S. Wheeler's large milk farm in
birmingham and was very successful with
its management. AT Mr.. Wheeler's death
| L. L. Barber purchased the farm and re-
tanned Mr.. Moultrop to take the entire
charge of it. The responsibility of the
position together with the extreme ltng
hours he felt obliged to devote to his work
began to undermine his rugged constitu-
ton, and in 1892, by the advice of his ply
stefan, he resigned his position and pur-
chased home in Foxboro. He hoped to
live there for many years and enjoy life IN
comparative comfort, but the Master above
had ruled otherwise.
lie was Past Master of MiddleSex

couple in the mysteries Of The third and
fourth degrees AID other regular business
had been finished, hot coffee, cakes and
pies in endless variety, also pickles, cheese
and doughnuts were served to all. The
demand was good, but not equal to the
supply, which was observation-disclosures that
the wives and daughters Of the grange were
good providers and knew how to cook.
The occasion was greatly enjoyed by all
present.

The Latest Thing in Fish Stories.

Alligators are becoming rather scarce in
Florida, but a few men still make good
living hunting them, their hides meeting
with ready sale One Of the largest con-
Germs in Jacksonville, engaged in dealing
in alligator hides, has a customer upon its
books named Tom Tucker. who brings in
more hides than any three men in the
state. 1t was known that the saurians
came from Dunn's creek a tributary of St.
Johns river; but beyond this fact nothing
could be learned concerning his methods of
capturing the reptiles until few days ago,
when a buyer for the firm visited Dunn's
creek and espied Tucker lying full length
on a log, one end of which was IN the
creek. Tucker had leg thrown into the
water and Just as the buyer approached, he
saw the alligator hunter begin to scramble
up the bank, while a huge saurlan beat the
muddy water into a foam. As the man
reached the bank, the alligator came too,
having swallowed a portion Of the leg that
hung over the log in the water. Tucker
drew a long, sharp knife and soon killed
the creature, then he unscrewed the leg
and took it off to remove the gator He
has wooden leg and through 1t are driven
sharp steel spikes. He leaves the leg III
the water and it is swallowed by an aliga-
tor. As the reptile closes his Jaws the
steel impales Washington Star.

Butter
Talk

The fact that the quality of Butter
marketed today largely depends upon the grade of
salt used, admits of no argument
Two qualifications in Dairy Salt indispen-
sable.
Ist. Absolute purity which ensures good
flavor and keeping qualities,
I'd. Quickness in dissolvng, ensuring a
perfect distribution with minimum
amount of working
The fact that all the prize butter made in
Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont last year
sailed with Worcester Salt and that 90 per
cent of the creamery and dairy men in New Eng
land use nothing but Worcester, proves beyond
doubt that Worcester is the Standard of Dairy
Salt, and embodes the above indispensable quail
hcations.

GRATEFUL BICYcLERs.

1t cannot be otherwise than gratifying
to The Times to know that the thirty or
forty thousand wheelmen and wheelwomen
in this city appreciate the efforts it has
made to have a cycle parade that will be
the talk of the country. The Times knew
that the suggestion and the parade itself
would be popular; that they would stinu-
late our people and arouse their spirits,
and would do their share TO make Washing
ton talked about from Maine to Texas aud
from New York TO San francisco. This paper
has no higher ambition than to promote the
happiness and prosperity of the people OF the
District, and wherever and whenever itcan
do anything in that direction no subject
will be deemed too uuimportant for its at
tention, and no i,ibor too great to be under
taken.
The bicycle parade is going to prove
again that when the people of Washing.
ton take hold of any scheme, success-and a
bowling success at that-is foregone con-
ciusioD. 1t happens most opportunely that
the tens of thousand of Christian Endeavor-
ers will be in the city about That time,
and they will have an object lesson OF
Washington enterprise which cannot fail
to rebound to the credit of TIE city, and to
increase the. desire of all bodies TO hold
their annual gatherings here.
