Captain Bourke, who died recently
in Philadelphia hospital, was one of
the three officers of the United States
Army who declined to accept medals
awarded by Congress for gallantry of
action, and the reasons he gave were
the source of o great deal OF amuse-
ment among his comrades, although
they illustrated his high sense OF
honor. He returned the medals to the
Secretary of War with a letter saying
that he noticed that similar medals
had been awarded to other officers for
the same reasons, and if they deserved
them he did not. The satire and sig
nifcance of this brief declinatlon can
be appreciated only by those who
know the methods used by certain
officers to obtain this distinction,
writes W. E. Curtis to the Chicago
Record.

brother and Francis Peabody. When
they retired the deceased was APP

his companions trying to arouse him

ring the enmily Of the railroad lobbyists.
Every inch Of ground he or those who
fought with him have contended for has
been for the good of the party and the

full and disintegrating outcome OF the
whole contest has been what has hap
pened sincet the convention was over.
The bitterness and rancor of MIR. Petit
CREWS enemies does not rest easy at his
triumphs in the contest as can be seen
by the way disaffected republicans rush
into print IN the Sioux Falls Argus
Leader. A paper claiming to be demo
cratic, yet without party and devoid Of
principle, utterly unreliable as regards
the truth OF its statements and having
no fixed purpose except to villlfy ami
mlsrepresent republicans or those whom
it does not like, it is nude the vehicle of
these republicans for relentlessly pursu-
ing Mr.. Pettigrew even after they claim
to have utterly Inundated and thrown
him down. Aside from it being an act
Of moral cowardice it is an act OF treach-
cry TO the republican party thus to build
up a personal organ that is at all times
hostile to the republican party, furnish
it with ammunition and standing to
fight their W party and putting them
selves in it's power when, very shortly
perhaps, in utter violation of honor and
decency it will draw upon them, as it
has done with others like them hereto
fore, the very utterances committed to
it in confidence and simplicity. This,
we repeat, is not only a greater injury
but a greater disgrace to the republican
party than anything Mr.. Pettigrew has
either advocated or done in this cam
paign. There was a leading republican

these republicans who thus ]patronize
the most INSCRIPTIONS enemy the re-
publican party in this state has, will
find, more likely to their own sorrow
than anyone's else. that they have been
committing a great big mistake. II the
republican party as it now exists is not
capable Of fighting its own battles with

better for the ultimate triumph OF re.
