NOTICE OF ADJOURNMENT.

w "A - DIE-II 1I OItD.
Sheriff Of Villas county, Wisco
The National tribune., 1897-09-09
ORDER NO. 2e5 AGAIN.

To Hon. CORNELIUS \. BLISS, Secre-
tary Of the Interior.
SIR: The National Encampment OF
the Grand Army of the Republic, re-
Gently held at Buffalo, earnestly consld-
cred, through Its Committee on Pensions,
matters which we have been pressing
upon your attention. 1t directed the
COMMUNICATIVE Chief to forward you
and other public officials concerned with
pensions copies of the report setting forth
the views which it Endorsed. When
this copy reaches you you Will see how
very closely the great body OF the vet
Grams are in accord with the position that
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE has main
tanned toward the obnoxious orders and
practices of the Cleveland regime and
particularly Order No 225. The
revocation of this lies very near
all their hearts. IF there were no
other reason they would want it re-
voked simply because il was issued by
Hoke Smith for the express purpose of
ohztructing the allowance Of pensions,
and for the persecution and deirauding
Of those pensioners already on the roll
They want il wiped out Of existence be
cause it is an odious reminder Of Cleye-
landism and Hoke-Smi;hism Still more
they want 1t revoked because until it Is,
and the Pension Bureau is freed from
any faint of it, there can not be such an
execution Of the pension laws as they
desire. The Order was vicious in theory
and maliciously wicked in oxecution. 1t
aimed at a notification of the Disability
Bill Law, and carried out that nullilica-
tion with rigorous cruelty and unsparing
injustice. What they want substituted
for it is Order 164 of Gen Mobiles ad-
ADMINISTRATION, which was framed to give
full value and effect to the law which
Congress and Pres dent Harrison APP
proved June q, 1880. But whatever
is substituted for it they want it abolished
done away with, erased from the books
and practice Of the Department, buried
deep in the limbo Of discarded, hateful,
torturing things, that even the memory
Of which should perish.
No words that We can use, Mr.. Score
tary, can be too strong 10 express their
desire on this subject. We are confident
that you will turn your attention TO the
matter at an early day, and CRAFTY
them by the revocal Of the order.
Sincerely your friend,
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
The National tribune., 1897-09-09

the part that the GAR. has so long
performed to the enormous benefit of
Government and Americanism. 1t must
be the organized incarnation of repub-
licanism, democracy, obedience to law,
reverence for institutions, and zeal to
lift them to still higher planes of devel-
opment. 1t must be larger, stronger,
and more far-reaching than the GAR,
because the country is larger, the con-
ditions more varied But it must be
the heir to the GAR, and the Order to
which the GAR. transmits its legacy OF
high duties and responsibilities.
We are sanguine that the 10th Ma
tional Encampment will recognize fully
the needs and opportunities Of the hour,
and deal wisely with them. We are
firm in the belief that it will see that the
time for great expansion and develop
ment has arrived, and provide adequate
ly for it, aiming at no less than strength
of 100000 for the Order in the very
near future.
There has gathered at Indianapolis
men whose ability and devotion to the
interests of the Nation are second to
none in the country. AS the armies of
the Union contained the very ablest men
the country was capable of producing,
SO do the gatherings of the Sons of Vet
Grams, and we are morally certain that
the 10th National Encampment will
start the Order upon period of phe-
nomenal development, like that which
followed the National Encampments of
the Grand Army 20 years ago. In
1877, y years after the establishment
of the GAR, and during business
depression similar to that from which we
are emerging, the membership of the
Order had sunk TO 25,446. 1t then be-
gan to slowly rise, In 1880 it was 49,
099; it almost doubled in the next two
years; the next year went up with a
bound to 146, 183, and the next year to
233, 595. 1t continued to jump up
until 1890, when the Adjutant- General
reported 409,489 members in good
standing.
We are sanguine that the Sons of
Veterans will more than parallel this
growth in the next few years, and that
the 10th National Encampment will
inaugurate this good work.
The National tribune., 1897-09-09
REPORT OF THE GAR. PENSION COM.
MlTTEE.

MITTEE.
We give this week the first install
ment Of the report of the GAR. Ma
tional Pension Committee to the Ma
tional Encampment. This installment
contains the recommendations of the
Committee to the Commissioner of Pen
sions as to much desired reforms in the
Bureau and of procedures under pen
sion laws. Next week s installment will
give the reply Of certain officials in the
Pension Bureau to whom the Commits
sioner submitted the recommendations
for consideration. The week following
We shall publish the reply Of the Com
mittee to the remarks Of the officials.
This extends the matter over a consid-
cradle space, but it is highly important,
and every paragraph is full of meat for
thought. 1t is matter which deeply
concerns every veteran and relative of a
veteran, and we are sure that it will be
studied carefully.
The National Encampment thought
the report Of such great Importance that
it directed the Commander-in-C Chief to
have special copies prepared, and sent to
every Senator and Representative, and
to all others who have any official con-
nection with pensions. We have antici-
pated this wish of the National En-
campment, and marked copies of THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE containing the re-
port will be sent to all the men to whom
the comrades desired to have read and
consider it. 1t is great document, and
will do much good.
The National tribune., 1897-09-09

In the issue of Sept, 80 We shall
begin the publication of Judge Tour
gees new story, written specially for
TIE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, entitled
"The Man Who Outlived Himself"
This, in Judge Tourgee's opinion, is
one Of the best things he ever did. 1t
is thrilling narrative Of American life,
true to history Of the period and the So
cial condition with which il deals.
1t is a great treat, and no one should
miss it 1t viii run through several
weeks.
The National tribune., 1897-09-09

SOME papers are worried good deal
about the failure of the National En-
campment to indorse the annexation of
Hawaii. Probably 80 out of every 100
members Of the National Encampment
were ardently in favor Of the annexa-
ton. Indeed, we never knew G. AR.
man who was not. But they felt that
it was political question, and therefore
had no place in the National Encamp-
ment.

Il
Sistersyille, w. Va, August 25.-The
only thing needed to stimulate the
development Of the thousands of acres
Of land yet in Tyler county undevelop-
ed is an increase in credit balances.
This is about the only thing that
causes the lack Of development of the
territory around here, which time after
time has been drilled over and then re-
drilled at different parts often after
wards. nearly every time with success.
Last year the Carter Oil Company came
/ back from out in the country and
/ drilled several wells along the bot
| toms right here in town and at every
! location they were successful in get
ting fair producers. If the price OF the
crude material would take an upward
turn there would be a terrible amount
/ Of hustling commenced at once and
kept up until there was not another
tract of land in the county urdeyel-
oped. Should it Go SO the sight Of three
years ago would be brought back to
the minds Of those who were here in
a thrible quantity The halcyon days
Of Sistersville were then very glitter
/ ing and nobody knew rest, night
or day.
There is every reason for an increase
in the quotations and none for a de-
cline. unless it is the will Of the Stan
dard, that they do not care to put an
| impetus to the oil industry this year
OF prosperity. They have gobbled
about the entire production Of the
United States at Il cents and think by
adding a cent or two to the market
will cause those who are holding back
their production TO unload. We hope
the market will be advanced within the
next few days, for encouragement, any
how.
Nothing Of an exciting nature to
report from any of the fields The
man with the long tin tubes is in evil
dence in all parts of the fields and is
doing good work increasing their i'm
mediate production the usual Quanti-
ty. with no large wells, the lesser
ones only being touched up.

alton has been performed successfully
at the French Hospital in this city up

er. BY i, not only his life has been
saved, but he is on the speedy way
10 recovery.
In the latter part Of July he sustain
Ied a compound fracture of the third

always fatal. which prevented the
moving Of his head IN any direction.
Or August II he was brought TO the
hospital. where the arch Of the third
vertebrae and a portion Of the second
} vertebrate were removed
The patient rests on an inclined
