where Eustis plainly Disseminated
against the veterans Of the war, as the
old soldiers make no complaint except
where the spirit and essence Of the
law, as relates to appointments of SOL
diers, were violated-that Is that all
other things being equal, the old SOL
dlers are to be preferred; in fact, II
old soldiers had simply been given an
equal show, and not preferred, there
would have been no complaint The
committee has already had instances
brought to it's attention from within
his party to abundantly warrant this
action against the Republican candi-
date.
While party name does not appear
in this movement, it is well known that
the membership Of the Old Soldiers
Anti-Eustis club is mostly from the
Republican party, because the old SOL
diers previously taking active part in
anti-Republican politics are In the Old
Soldiers Bryan and Lind club, of the
1896 campaign. On this account, and
considering the number Of Republicans
not soldiers who are opposed to Eustis,
there is talk of broadening the soldiers
club so as to admit to membership an

proposition will :probably come before
