TO BE PROPOSED.

An amendment will be introduced at
the G. A. R. National Encampment to
change the name of the organization to
s'The Grand Army and Navy of the
Republic" and to admit all soldiers
and sailors who ever fought for the
Union, all who are fighting for it now
flag and the principles which it repre-
sents.-Ironton Register.
We do not see why there shonld be
any question as to the passage of such
a resolution. The Society of the Grand
Army was organized, l. To preserve
the fellowship Of old comrades, 2. To
promote patriotism, 8. To assist needy
comrades and their families. All SOL
diers, whether of the Revolutionary
war, the war of II, the Mexican war,
the Civil war or the Spanish war, are
equally deserving the honor of their
Country, because they served in its
defense. Every soldier should hold
every soldier of every other war com.
rade. 1t will promote patriotism fol
the old soldier and the younger one te
join hands in a common comradeship
United they can better look after the
needy comrades of all wars. No man car
be true soldier who does not honorthe
comrade, no matter in what war he
served, who has lifted up the old flag
in the face OF his country's enemy.

SAVE GLOVER INSTITUTE.

The citizens of West Liberty are
making strenuous efforts to continue
Glover Institute. Scholarships at $25
are being sold to be paid in full Sept.
l, 1900, or if more than four scholar
ships are taken by one person, time of
payment of 40 per cent. of amount is
made payable one year later. The col
lege is to be non-sectarian.
The Banner says:
"The year closing in June shows
more students in attendance than ever
before in the history of the school.
The work done was of higher grade
than ever before. The graduating
class was larger, while the money left
in the town by the students for the one
year amounted to not less than SO, 600.
Il the school should continue with the
rate of increase Of the past two years,
the amount of money left in the city
would soon be increased tenfOld and
the school would become the chief
business enterprise of the community.
But the financial part is one of least
consideration, the advantages afforded
socially, morally and Intellectually,
outweigh it many fold. The advantages
afforded directly by the school, in the
way of lecture course during the past
year, were not surpassed by any town
in Ohio, whether it contain a school OF
not. Many other advantages could be
mentioned which mean much for the
making of community"

QUINCY.

Nearly so per cent of the threshing is done
and the yield is quite large. the average
reaching near 20 bushels to the acre.
We got fine rain Friday evening, which
stopped threshing for the remainder OF the
week, but will be OF countless value to the
corn crop.
Well! our oil well has been shot, and some
claim it has been shot to death, which others
claim a good well. Those connected with the
well prior to the shooting claimed "lots' of
oil, hundreds Of feet, and we were personally
informed that the prospects were bright and
the showing up Of oil fine, and all were en-
couraged until that awful shot was fred, and
then it was declared that the oil had vanished
etc. Some say the well is now filed with oil,
and somebody said Geo. Allinger said it was
overfowing, so that it was plainly seen on
the water Of the river. One thing is certain
it seems mysterious and the silence of some is
inexplicable, but we predict that let the cat
jump either way the next fortnight will prob
ably bring out the real facts the leases will
expire in, the time named and the problem
must consequently soon be solved.
The W. G. T. o. held a Sunday observance
meeting at the NJ. E. Church Sunday evening
They had a fair audience and the essays
readings, addresses and songs were all on the

toward Sabbath dissertation and woe to the
nation that disregards the Fourth Command
ment.
Perhaps 1900 people visited Quincy and
Riverside Park July 4th, and our people hard

UNPLEASANT
Experience Of the Troops In the
Philippines.
The Rainy Season Is in Full Blast
and the Country Is Flooded.

Manila, July 10-S a. NIT has been
raining and storming almost constantly
for two days, and the country along the
American south and bay lines is liter
ally flooded. The soldiers are suffering
great discomfort. The Thirteenth
Regiment at Pasay, is in the worst
condition, being practically surrounded
by water. The bridges'that were used
for getting supplies are washed away,
and some of the companies are separa-
ted by streams six feet deep. In many
cases the men are sleeping with three
feet of water beneath their hunks,
which are elevated on cracker boxes.
The companies cooks when preparing
the meals, stand knee deep in water.
Some of the roads leading to Pasay
are simply impossible, and the rice
fields on all sides are one great lake.
A high wind blew over several tents of
the Second Reserve. Hospital.
Manila Bay is impossible of naviga-
tion by either launches or canoes, and
no vessels are leaving the harbor. The
United States transport Centennial is
ready to sail for San Francisco with
discharged soldiers, but the latter have
to sit around the water front all day,
drenched to the skin, waiting for a
launch to take them to the steamer
The river Pasig and all the other
streams are swollen, and the city
streets at low points are covered with
| water.

TEMPERANCE AWAKENING in
GERMANY.

Schneider's "Theogisches Jahrbuch"
for 1899, reports improvement in the
matter of temperance in Germany.
There is steady increase in the
growth of temperance societies. So
cialist and labor conferences are be-
ginning to denounce the drink habit.
1t is still that true that saloons, num-
bering 27S,69S, outnumber any other
business places. The "Berlin Inn
keeper" organ of the brewers, can
praise saloons as substitute for home
life to young people away from home. :"
But against such special pleading,
societies of total abstinence, teachers
and physicians, the General Synod of
Prussia, the great scientific societies
of the Rhine and Westphalia, leading
magistrates and corporations, are join
ing hands to fight this evil. The use
of alcohol has not increased; but rather
gone down from As per capita to "A;
not much, but turn in the right di-
rection. There are only about 5000
total abstainers in Germany; but they
are active. England which produced
35, 900, 600 barrels of beer last year ex.
ceeds Germany now in its consumption.

GOLD STANDARD IN INDIA.
Parliamentary Committee Recon-
mends Its Introduction.

London, July 9.-The report of the
parliamentary committee on Indian
currency, just issued in the form of
blue book, approves the decision of the
government not to revert to silver
standard. 1t argues that it would be
impossible to maintain the status quo
permanently, and, therefore, recon-
mends that measures be taken to intro
duce gold standard, with the British
sovereign as legal tender, and advises
that the Indian mints be allowed to
coin gold without restrictions, on the
same terms as the Australian mints.
Finally by a majority OF votes, the COM
mittee recommends fixing the rupee
rate at sixteen pence.
The report says in conclusion: "The
effective establishment of gold stand
ard is of paramount Importance to the
material interests of India, not only to
promote existing trade, but to encour-
age the influx of capital"

THE Millennium
Is Evidently Steering This Way.

An English military company from
Canada took part in the 4th of July
celebration at Rochester, New York.
For a hundred years sand more,
Americans have been twisting the
British lions tail and letting the eagle
scream, on the Fourth of July. The
fathers and the children have been
taught to rejoice over our escape from
British tyranny and give thanks that
we were independent of the blarsted
Britishers! But new spirit is brood
ing over both lands now. Old things
have passed away and all things have
become new. England and America
stand together as the champions of
liberty and Christian civilization, and
the English have not been slow to
make advances in the good cause. Let
us all rejoice, anew. The demonstra-
tion at Rochester is another evidence
Of the good feeling that now exists be-
tween the two nations. Let us recog-
nize in it another evidence of the
genuine love that has sprung up
between the two nations, that have
long been of one blood and are now of
one purpose in saving and promoting
the highest civilization and liberty the
world has known. Erin go Unum, E.
Pluribus Bragh! Long live the Queen

NO CUBAN FLAGS.

The Times-Star comments on the fact
that year ago, the Cuban flag was
everywhere displayed with the Ameri-
can flag, in this country, while this year
it was not seen. The It's. hastily jumps
to the conclusion from this, that the
Americans judge the Cuban flag to be
unworthy to be seen with the American
flag.
This is forced, and unworthy con-
clusion.
A year ago, the Cuban flag was DEEM
ed worthy to wave with the American
flag not only in America, but in Cuba.
1t was welcomed to join our army in
the battles at Guantanamo and Santiago
and we heralded to the world our love
for the Cubans and Cuba Libre, and
our purpose to wage war in the name
of humanity. If there has been a
change since then, it has not been on
the part of the Cubans. They kept ev-
cry promise with our Generals, and
were faithful as our allies. What have
they neglected to do, that they should
not have done, that their flag should
now be unworthy to be displayed with
ours? tA
They remained faithful as allies; they
have accepted our rule of the island;
they have given up the Government
under which they fought Spain; they
have accepted our military rule of the
island; and they only ask that we allow
them an independent Government
that which we promised them in oul
declaration of war. What is there, ir
all this, that would make the Cubar
flag unworthy to be twined with the
American fiagp 1t is not that the
American people have lost interest il
the Cubans or their struggle for liber
ty, that the Cuban flag was not display
ed on the 4th Of July, this year. Bur
| it was, 1st because there is no Cubar
fag-the Government that adopted the
flag Of year ago, having dissolved
and I'd, because the American people
believe that Cuba Libre is assured, ant
we are not fighting now as we were 6
year ago for Cuban liberty.
But if the yellow newspapers think tht
American people have lost interest il
the Cuban cause, or that they are read.
to violate pledge of Cuban independ
ence, they will find their mistake very
soon, if either great party assumes
such position.

ROBERT BONNER, the founder of the
New York Ledger, man eminent in
newspaper work and philanthropy, died
at his home in New York City, Thurs
day. He was born near Londonderry,
ireland, April %, 1924. He came to
America, when 10 years old, and
learned the printing trade in Hartford,
Connecticut. He made record as a
fast type setter, before he became a
publisher. He became very wealthy
after starting the New York Ledger,
paid large sums to contributors for
their articles, and was very liberal in
his gifts to colleges, charity and
churches.
