Henderson raised the gun in one hand

Henderson dropping his gun and
catching his pistol in his right hand

him in the leg, causing him to fall to

OF tho Confederate veterans the BODY

te changed from the "Unitcd COnlCd-

the memorial tr al camps in the or
gaEiZatiOn with the request that they
act upon the matter before the next
! convention Of the Veterans Witch viii
| be held in Nashville, TGnn., on May :.
| $ and next.
The Augusta camp maintains that
tho original reason FOR adopting the
| uamc UnitCu Confederate Veterans =
/ has now ceased 10 exist 1t was for
the prevention OF confusing the gen
c,'al organization with local OrganiZa-
tions Of survivors then known rs as
suciations. They maintain that the
term u. &. "" has no history and no
precious memories Of the past attached
to it.. Should dead comrades como to
life they woul. not recognize tho pres
cnt insignia. But the G. S. a."
would ever be recognized and regarded
with affection. The &C. S. AS "
meaning is too well known to need Il
word a. t. It's appropriateness. 1t
stands first for the Confederate States
Of America and then for the COnfcder-
ate States army. Why not let the few
who rcmuin OF that army have the
name they love so dearly? In such Il
light was the matter presented.
Now as time is dying the Augusta
camp has once more begun to push tho
matter and is writing letters 20 She va
rious camps asking thom to ac1 nN"n
the suggestion. Such II letter has h,un
received here and Camp Hampton VIII
doubtless Dass upon tho suggestion at
its next meeting. The other camps in
this state will likely pass upon the
matter Of the proposed change in the
next month.

The Salt Lake Tribune is responsible for the following new way of setting out the famous expression of famed statesman.
 ''It is to be of the people, by the people and for the people this year. With such land and such a people, that there should be confusion and dis tress is an impeachment of our ca pacity for self-government. With harvests too great to move, and with people starving; with a continent yet to be subdued and with thousands and tens of thousands of men unable to find anything to do through which a livelihood can be earned; with resourc- es absolutely limitless and yet with the great majority of the producers not making a comfortable living; surely there is a fatal error somewhere, and the people are going to come very near ly finding out, this year, what the trouble is. When novels stand in the shadow of palaces; when in one home there is no appetite to taste the deli. cious food, and in the cabin hard by there is raging appetite, but no foot to satisfy it; then it is time for the Ma tion to rouse itself and to see if tht government itself cannot be changed into government of the people, by the people and for the people,

 ''The policy of The Post in treating this platform will be to give both sides of the question with the utmost fair ness it is capable of.

HALF RAlTIONS.
argument

The New York Evening Post has resorted to new device to teach peo- pie the sophistries of the gold stand ard. It makes what it calls free coinage catechism and stuffs it as full of Receptions as lively imagination can invent. As a sample the first question is:
 Q.-What is the fundamental claim of the free coinage advocates?
 A.-They claim that the amount of money in circulation has been decreas- ing since the demonetization of silver and that this decrease has caused general fall in prices.
 Now, the silver men do not claim that at all, as The Post knows very well. What they claim is that when the double standard was put aside, putting all the burden on gold, it was equal to destroying half the real money of the world. And the fact that the governments have made token money and subsidiary money since, and the per capita, counting all that in, amounts to more than it did before silver demonstration, amounts to nothing except to supply false argus ment.
 In the same way The Post says the reason wheat has fallen in value is because of overproduction, which is another fallacy. It has fallen because the volume of real money has fallen, making times so hard that people have not been able to buy four, and hence what The Post calls overproduction ought to be called underconsumption But those sort of arguments are what count in the east, where people know no better, and The Post is an adept in presenting them.

Could a piece of the silver, Current money of the merchant" which Abra- ham paid for a burial place for Sarah, four thousand years ago, be exhumed, it would be found that it had lost noth- ing either in weight, fineness, luster or any other quality. But would it not be queer to read in the average metro politan paper that it had become "soft money?" Is it not the more strange to reflect that during all those forty centuries the world used it as a perfect measure of values, that up to three and-twenty years ago it was better in our own country than gold, and that only the money-changers of these last twenty-three years found out that it was soft money?"
