MAINE COMRADES APPEAL
On Behalf of the relief Corps and the Sol
diers' Home.


ATTENTION. GAR: Judging from the re-
ports of meeting of veterans and their la,ies,
held in the largest city Of Maine. one would
hardly believe the soldier participants were
members of All Order Ito nconrage the spread
OF universal liberty. equal rights, and justice
to all men and women. 1t is to be hoped
the report is not true.
We have been asked, "Why this opposition
TO the Soldiers Home at Newport?" We can
only say we know no reason why any who
really have the interest of the veteran and his
dependent IS at heart can oppose a movement so
manifcstly for their benefit and welfare.
We know, further, that the Woman's Relief
Corps. which first proposed this Home. has ne.
come settled auxiliary and recognized agency
o, the Grand Army of the Republic IN all its
work of benevolence. To those who have or
will give attention to the record there can be
no question that the National Encampment has
given it's recognition to tho Woman's Relief
Corps. as unanimously reaffirmed by 30 Ma
tiOnal Encampments, and that it has remained
silent as to any other organization.
The fact that 81 States. some of them with
from one-half TO Oneeighth the population OF
Maine. have established Homes which are re.
eral support of the States where located, would
seem to refute the argument that there is no
call for such institutions
If this is not enough the SO applications for
accommodations at Names Home already re-
ceived by the Committee. which they are un.
able to consider for lack of means, together
with the fact that Of 900 inmates of the Chel.
| sea (Mass.) Home, only few miles away, q
are Maine soldiers would seem to indicate that
| our friends. at least, have not judged with
| capdor.
The directors, who say those who would be.
| come inmates can better be cared for in their
own homes. forget that many of them have nc
home, aud that while we have 1877 G. A. r. Posts
60 Corps, W.RC., auxiliary to the Grand Army
| 20 State Corps, and several independent Corps
there are more than 600 cities. towns, and
plantations in the Department of Maine, few
of them with soldier organizations, bnt nearly
all with representatives of the old veteran OF
his dependent, that have no earthly helper.

Department Commander ID. Lloyd Jones, OF
Wisconsin. in General Orders. says:
" The Both National Encampment. Grand

The Commander congratuates the com rades oil
this Department that such memory is an ex-
ceedingly pleasant one. Never have the Posts
and mem bership Of this Department appeared
TO better advantage. Never but once were
their numbers greater. Their esprit du corps
WAS never excelled. Their soldierly bearing
and their precision in marching won the praise
of both civil and military spectators and WAS
the subject of favorable criticism by com rades
OF other Departments.
The effect of this meeting cannot but be
salutary. IL is already apparent in renewed
interest in our Posts. Comrades who have lost
interest and have allowed their membership to
lapse are coming back. A large number of ap-
piications are coming in. One Post Commander
reports that he will double the membership OF
his already strong Post within the year. The
Department Commander urges prompt action
on the part OF Aids-de- Camp and Post officers
IN guiding and controlling this enthusiasm for
the best interests of the Order"
