As the annual celebration Of Memoir
ial Day comes around it is important to
take a wider survey of what ii means.
It is more than a memorial Of what our
fathers and brothers contended for dur
ing the civil war. Let no, one of their
noble deeds and immense sacrifices be
FORGOTTEN. Many can recall the thrill
which passed over the country as our
nobIest and best enlisted for the war,
and as we heard Of their exploits on the
field of battle. and mourned for their
death or rejoiced in their achievements
from day 10 day. The whole country
was then aroused TO a pitch of enthus-
iasm which now seems impossible.
These things will always be remember
ed and it makes the children strong on
account Of the brave deeds of their
fathers, but this is not all OF Memorial
Day. We are slowly awaking to the
consciousness of a national Importance
which leads US far beyond the civil war,
and shows that this country has part
to play in the civilization of the world.
While We pause to pay our tribute to
our noble dead, we must remember
that the civil war was but stepping
stone to q larger destiny.
If those who speak to-day to the
groups of veterans in our cities and
towns would harmonic the past with
the future. they would render a great
service to the people as a whole. The
proper way 10 celebrate these great ma
tional holidays is to consider not only
what they stand for in themselves, but
what they represent in the onward
movement of a great people.

ANOTHER soRrHEsp GONE.

One o. X. Sutton, of Sutton, has left
the Democratic party. The party may
not have felt the vacuum created by his
departure, but he's gone. Not only is
he gone. but he Eliminates to the extent
OF a column in the local Republican or
gan of his town. endeavoring to tell
why he left us all so sudden. He doesn't
succeed very well. however. in giving
reasons. though he shows that re is
built to make an ideal Republican poll
tician by the ease and grace with which
he ISLANDERS and misrepresents the party
which evidently has not appreciated him
TO the extent he would like. Here is 4
sample of the reasons" of Mr. .. X.
Sutton. of Sutton. who is described AS
leading young politician of Praxton. for
shaking the dust Of the Democratic
household from his feet
Having from my youth natural inclina-
ton 10 engage IN the political affairs Of
the country, and being rocked as / was
IN Democratic cradle. and even wrapped
az my birth In Democratic swaddliug
clothes, and taught the doctrines of Tho
party IN all its phases and the various and.
inherent constructions placed upon the
leading questions. as they have been diff
ferenuy presented and variously construct
ed according 10 local interests on the serti-
ment Of the locality in which they were
sought 20 Zoe applied from the sentiment of
my locality. I believed that Lincoln was
an uSurper and tyraut; that Grant was a
butcher and Butler was a monster. and
that Garfield was covered with infamv
and the young State In which I was born
and lived was "a bastard. and the free
school IN which / was being taught had
been conceived and brought into existence
by diSlOyal and corrupt men, Such was
the training Of the youths OF my section.
If such was Mr.. SutlOn's early train
iag. we can confidently inform him that
he was not trained in i Democratic
school. nor in Democratic doctrine. or
precept and that he does not know what
Democracy is. We are not surprised that
entering politics with such a foundation
OF political intolerance and bigotry
young Mr.. Sutton should early gravitate
to the Republican party. where such
bigotry and intolerance reign supreme.
Aside from this peculiar phase of the
subject, Mr.. sutton fails utterly to give
a valid reason for his leave-taking OF
Democracy. and judging from the heat
and bitterness with which he villifies
the party, which make his letter read
like a backwoOds Republican stump
speech, we are inclined to look deeper
for the animus OF the young mans &C
ton.
