In the intervals of war talk, an ac-

operations, with special reference to
their moral aspect, is going on. The
Chicago Times Herald insists that
Mr.. Letters wheat transactions are
entirely legitimate. viewed from every
conceivable standpoint" The Boston
Transcript denies this and declares
that he has employed his capital his
training and his native shrewdness in
juggling with the market" What Mr.
Letter has done has been to buy. hold
for rise and sell when the rise came.
ON smaller scale, that would have
been legitimate enough. 1t is, in effect,
what every merchant does. He eX-

they cost him, and he must do SO in

Memorial Day;

WCuhVss0' WI
This is the day, set apart by sacred
custom from all the days of the year,
to decorate with flowers and flags the
graves of those who sleep the last
sleep after fighting the battles of our
country, and to honor their bravery
and their loyalty 1t is as distinctive
" an American holiday as is Indepen-
beautiful ceremonies are an honor to
our national character and safe
its origin in the South soon after the
Civil War when some women went on
q spring day to the city cemetery and
placed flowers upon the graves of both
the blue and the gray. Now for gem
Grafton and more, when returning
springtime fills the earth with the
promise OF everlasting life, in every
city and hamlet of our broad land
Memorial day is fittingly observed. In
school and church and public hall is
told the story of those who sacrificed
all for love of country, and through
the streets move the long professions
to the cemeteries. where the grave OF
every soldier is heaped with beautiful
flowers, and has placed above it little
American flag.
This year Memorial day is of more
than usual significance, and its grand
lesson of patriotism will sink deeper
than ever before into the hearts of the
young. For the first time in many long
wears our country is at war with
foreign foe, and our young men are
fastening to the front in defense of the
flag as their sires and grandsires did of
old. To-day, for the first time since
the war for the Union, our land is a
united nation, With all sectional ami
mosities forgotten, and the bitterness
of the past gone forever. Everywhere
in glory and honor waves the flag of
Washington and Lincoln, and not an
American living but is proud to stand
beneath its folds and aid in its de-
Tense. AS in the early COS the South is
filled with marching men, but today
they all wear one uniform and above
them rippleS only one flag. SO we COW
er with flowers today the graves OF the
blue and gray alike. and the sacred
ceremony is given a deeper and more
intense meaning when We realize that
another year will give us many more
graves to pause beside graves of
of heroes of the past.
Let US observe the day in spirit
BETTING the occasion. 1t is holy
| day as we'll as holiday, and every
thoughtful citizen must deprecate the
tendency in many sections to give the
day over to athletic sports and forms
of thoughtless recreation. No person,
old or young, who lives under our flag
can afford to miss the lesson of pat
riotism that is afforded by witnessing
and participating in the exercises of
this day. With loving and loyal hearts
let US honor the memory Of the heroes
who are gone, and give our unWaver-
ing support and sympathy to those
who have taken their places in the
ranks.
