COMPANY G.
OFF FOR WAR.-GREAT PAT
RIOTIC DEMONSTRATION
THE GOD SPEED OF A Low
ING PEOPLE.

From the moment the news was first
given to Company g by THE TIMES that
the call had come to go to camp until the
train bearing the boys pulled out of the
city, not second was wasted in making
the necessary arrangements. Capt. Van
Epps at once notified all subordinate Of
fcers and in remarkably brief time every
member of the company had been notified
aud nearly all were present at the Armory
in the evening for drill, and our citizens
turned out EN- masse. Application for
membership in the company commenced
to come early and from those profering
their services, Capt. Van Epps was early
enabled to recruit the company to the full
limit allowed. A similar seen was enacted
Saturday evening, the armory being far too
small to accommodate the citizens who
desired admission to give word of en-
couragement and God speed to the boys.
Hundreds were refused admission to the
company, not only from the city but the
the entire surrounding country. On Sun
day afternoon the company was out for a
skirmish drill on the field adjscent to the
Washington school, their work being watch
ed and cheered by thousands of citizens.
SERVICE AT THE BAPTIST CHURCH.
BY invitation of Pastor G. V. Northrop,
Company G in full dress attended patri-
otic service at the Baptist church Sunday
evening, and so did fully eighteen hundred
of the citizens of Owosso, while hundreds
of others were turned away not a foot of
space being left untitled. IL any doubt ex-
members of the company, 1t was dispelled
by this gathering and the service. From
the singing of the first patriotic hymn to
the benediction every moment was well
taken up. The address of Pastor North
rop was inspiring and cheering; the remarks
of Hon. j. w. Turner, Mr.. q. b. Nc
Caughna, County Clerk Cooper and q. @.
Duff filled with words of encouragement
and patriotism, bringing forth rounds of ap-
plause. Fred Kamm. assistant superin.
tendent of the Sunday school and recruit
in the company, spoke briefly. AT the
close of the service he was baptised by Rev.
Northrop.
The meeting will prove a source of cheer
for the boys as long as they are away from
home.
ARMoRY RECEPTION.
On Monday evening in response to Mayor
Kerwin's proclamation, an informal recep.
tion was rendered the members of the Com
pany at the armory, when again our citi-
zens by the thousands paid their respects to
the boys. The crowd became so large
that 1t was found necessary to station
guards at the door to keep the people out
for time.
On the stage were seated Mayor Kerwin,
city council and officials, the clergy and
prominent citizens. Quakenbush Post
members were given seats OF honor just in
front of the stage. Music was furnished by
the city band and Haskell's martial drum
corps. After a song, Geo. M. Dewey Jr.
chairman OF the evening, called upon Rev.
John Sweet, pastor Of the NJ. T.. church, to
invoke the divine blessing.
The first speaker Of the evening was Hon.

j. w. Turner, representing the veterans,
who said goodbye to the boys in a five
minute address, such as only Mr.. Turner
can make. s. K. Parkill, for the citizens
of Owosso, assured the boys that everyone
felt an interest in them, that their move
ments would be watched with the keenest
interest and that If more soldiers were need
ed a second company would 20 to the front.
He assured the boys that those dependent
upon them should be cared for by the people
of Owosso-a statement that, was greeted
with thunderous burst of applause, and
one which will be carried out to the letter.

Mr.. Altgeld, of Illinois, is called an
anarchist only by the foolish. Mr.. Alt
geld is radical, earnest, intellectual
and honest citizen, deeply and unset
fishly interested in public affairs. He
may have been unwise in some OF his
official actions. When thing is new
in this world you never can really tell
whether 1t is unwise or wise. You had
better wait hundred years and then
decide as yon look down or up from
other world,
Gov. Altgeld is strong man, u good
and strong democrat in the true sense
Of the word democrat Unfortunately
for the public good, which needs such
men, the stupidity which attributes to
him the qualities of the anarchist may
outlive the truth and destroy tle use
fulness Of a brilliant mind.
A distinguished American recently
visited England, and the first question
put to him by the author OF "The
American Commonwealth" was this:
"How is Altgeld? Are the people
understanding him better nowp"
It is time for the American people,
especially for democrats, to understand
Altgeld better. N. Y. Journal

Did you ever notice man robbing u
hive of bees, while the bees few about
him in swarms unable to penetrate his
shield? If the man Is civilized" he
does not take all the honey, as the bees
would starve and thus he would be un-
able to gather honey in tho future.

ton of people, while the people few

trate their shield Of lawp II the rob-
bers are 'civilized" Their do not take
everything the people have, as the
people would starve and thus the rob-
bers would be unable to gather wealth
in the future. The two cases are just
as similar as the above paragraphs.
The man does nothing to produce the
honey; the robber barons and trusts do
nothing to produce the wealth they
hold. They use one set Of men to rob
all the workers. They do not work
except to scheme how they may rob to
the best advantage. II the toiling
millions were not blinded by prejudice,
this state Of affairs would long ago
have ceased Appeal to Reason.

P0STOFFICE LESSONS.
THE EXTENSION OF POSTAL
SERVICE ADVOCATED.
Mayor Jones, of Toledo, in his Address to
tho Letter Carriers Association, Adj
vocates Government Tolcgraphs and
Telephones No Part of Postal System.

The great increase In the number Of
organizations and associations OF al
sorts that have gotten together during
the last twenty years in our country
and in other lands as we'll, is a move
ment with meaning, Men in vast
numbers arc becoming convinced OF
folly and failure OF competition, and
are beginning to realize that their nor
nal condition is one Of association;
that the best results for all can only
be obtained by the help Of all.
The race may be said to be grooming
in travail in the effort to realize rela-
tionships to another, in the effort to
comprehend the progress OF our being
in tho effort to understand what is a
sclf.evideut fact to every thoughtful
person, the fact, the imperishable fact
OF our universal brotherhood.

We point with exultant pride Mt the

Socialistic enterprise Of our govern

there be thun Is found In the cold fig

less treasure, transmitted from one end
OF the continent to the other, from the
great metropolis to the country cross
roads and the obscure hamlet, with
hardly the loss of penny. When de-
votion of high and noble purposes,
what faithfulness and worth of moral
character is portrayed in these facts;
what perfdity, what proclamation, the
unpatriotic charge so often repeated,
