The colonel denies that the mortal
ity rate is greater among old soldiers
than among the rest OF the people,
lie says il is lower for the reason
that the government gives them the
preference in many lines OF employ
ment, removing them from the strain
aud stress OF the competitive struggle,
and pensions, which tend TO give
peaceful days TO the old, at tue same
time tend to prolong life. The old
soldiers in 1909 will be in round num-
bers 100000, a tribute TO the long
evity Of the American soldlery, for it
will then be IS year since the war
closed. The pension expenditure, Col,
AInsworth estimates will be at its
highest slightly after the year 1900
and from then on 1t viii decline rap
idly In bulk.

The custom of decorating the graves
of the fallen with flowers had It's or
gin early in the war, and was 90
served by friends of the blue and gray
alike. As early as 1862 the soldiers
graves IN the South were reneIn
Asred. In the first year OF the war
some little girls, in a town in virgin
mia, gathered baskets of ho"erS ahu
covered their soldiers graves. Oh
the 18th OF April, 1862, some ladies
and a chaplain, from Michigan, were
chatting together at Arlington
Heights. They were talking ABOUT
the horrors of the war. and one lady
aaid: GLOW lonely and cherries the
hare graves OF the soldiers look. "
Another proposed gathering some
flowers and laying them on the graves
OF the Michigan soldiers that DAY.
They did sO--and the next year Jhey
decorated the same graves. The thlrd
year the same chaplain and ladies
were in Fredericksburg, and they dec
GRATED the soldiers graves there. 81
the beautiful custom grew and spread
its influence with its flowers each
year.
The idea of a general public demon
stration originated In the Empire
state. A gentleman, then ag neral III
the army, whose home was In water
loo, consulted with druggist OF the
place as to the propriety of inviting
the whole town TO take part In scat
terIng flowers over the graves of their
fallen camrades. The plan met with
great favor, and on the 3Oth OF May,
1856, thlrty-one years ago now, hun
dreds of flags were flying at half-mast,
draped with mourning, in the town OF
Waterloo.
The ladies met and made crosses
and wreaths OF flowers and bouquets.
Then all joined in the procession
and marched to the cemetery, where
impressive services were held. This
was the Inauguration Of the time
honord Decoration day in New York
state. Two years later, General
John A. Logan, as: commander'in-
chief OF the Grand Army of the Re
public, issued command that the
3Oth OF May should be observed as
Decoration day throughout the
United States.
The veterans who march now TO
Quiet cemeteries each year to lay
flowers on the soldiers graves, Will
soon pass over the other side Of the
river where the soldier boys are.
The Grand Army of the Republic
each year very appropriately calls
upon the school .boys ond girls to
help them, for this is no common
holiday but a day sacred to every
person In the land.
'Strew,nowers above the Nations
dead,
O. gather tenderly around;
with garlands deck their lowly bed;
Tread lightly DER the hallowed
ground,
For us they dled-the brave, the true,
Peace hovers DER each 'honored bed,
Sterw flowers above the Nations
dead" "

State house nepotism has been car
ried too far. The junior members Of
families of the official aristocracy are
imposed as attendants at the insane
asylum. Mere minors of state officials
are forced onto the state paYrolls. We
have at times criticised Governor
Lords appointments and policies,
But he has not appointed any of his
family to state positions. He could
just as we'll have few of his children
on the payrolls as others. But it
seems he draws the line at that and
the people respect him for it. The
same class who press their families
into the public service will also be
found screening jObbery. They will
never aid in uncovering wrong dOings
while participating in the fruits of
nepotism. This same class howl loud
est against civil service reform. 1t is
time the people gave them a severe
rebuke.

Clarence Warrenton. waiter on the Nal
lory line steamship Rio Grande, was
found this morning at o'clock, in a raft
back OF the Bay Iron Works. This ex-
