Memorial Day Orders Issued by the Ma =
tionnl President.
Elizabeth II. II. Davis. National Presi-
dent of the Ladies Aid Society. with
Headquarters at Washington. ID. c., has
issued General Orders regarding the OBJ
servance of Memorial Day, in which she
requests each Society to tender its serv-
ices to the local Camp OF Sons OF Vet
Grams or G. a r. Post. Mrs. Davis says:
Spring. with its sunshine and show
ers, bidding the flowers bloom again, re-
minds us tlat Memorial Day is once more
at hand with its duty and pleasure oil
paying homage to our Nations loved ones
who are sleeping. Sisters, do you. realize
that as each year passes we have fewer
comrades Of that grand army which saved
the Union, but more graves over which
to scatter our flowers? What they did his
tory ha- tod. and from day to day repeats
the story. Their valOrOuS deeds and pat
riotic sacrifices have Eeen told in verse
and prose. Their greatest monument IS,
however, a Nation undivided and IN
diviSible-a Nation whose name IS syn
Onym for liberty, Justice. and humanity.
We should esteem it an honor and prIvl-
lege to reverently strew upon our SOL
d!ers' graves Springs emblems OF a new
life. AS the ranks year by year grow
thinner, and the living comrades are un-
able to pay the full measure of love and

who have gone before, it becomes the
privilege OF our brothers and ourselves TO
take part in the services of Memorial Day,
and To render due honor TO those who
died that the Nation might live.
"One year ago the war-clouds hung low
over the land. Men who, in former days,
followed the Stars and Bars were proud TO
be enrolled with and to fight their cOun-

give this subject your early and earnest
attention, with view of Joining our ranks
in case you are eligible.
There is WORK for all; there should not,
and must not be any conflict; we laid
down our arms at Appomattox and have
no longer any desire to engage in Strlie OF
contention, except asSailed by foreign
foe; for our country is now and should
be foTeeer cemented by that true spirit OF
b.othsrly love, affection and patriotism,
ever standing together, North and South
alike, shoulder to shoulder, as we have
done in the present unpleasantness.
Our works of charity are done quietly,
without any OStentation, honestly be-
lieving that the widow and orphans OF our
dead comrades are entitled TO our very
first consideration, and it is the duty OF
the Legion TO assist its fellow-members IN
every honorable way. -,
We, as an organization, should and Will
be pleased to unite with all e1-soidler
orders in securing for our comrades, their
widows and orphans, that when is
honestly and justly due them by sacred
promises made by those i'll power during
the dark days of our country's history;

that no ex-soldier or his family should
suffer for the actual necessities of life as
very many now do. Many of our COM
rades are at the present time old and
infirm, and are only receiving very
small pittance, dealt out begrudgingly by
seemingly unwilling Government by
parties in power that seem to think this a
personal matter, and that they are per
sonally responsible to future generations
for every cent SO uniustly squandered.
God pity them. I'VE don't" ANY man

our comrades and their families of that
which was intended for and honestly

old dependent soldier will not be COM

yindictive interpretations of our laws.
Nav some of the officials sleep be troubled
by the vision Of what transpired at Gettys-
burg and on hundreds of other bloody

1t is the duty of every Encampment,

meetings, to pass proper resolutions, see
that each Representative in Congress and
all other officials are advised that there is
general uprising of the old boys, and
that they are ready TO again fall-in. Not

provement in the administration of affair s
OF the Pension Office, there is still much
ground for Just complaint on the part ol
deserving comrades, whose claims lie un-
| answered and apparently neglected in the
pigeon holes of the Department. The un-
| reasonable rulings of the Pension Depart
ment in connection with the act Of June,
| 1890, as also the failure to act promptly
on the claims when presented, are mat
ters that might be fruitful subjects for the

The report of the Assistant Adiutant-

Three new Posts were instituted during

Resolutions were adopted deploring the
deaths of Maj. Lee Raymond and Gov.

justment of the claims now on file IN the
Pension Bureau, and more Just anu

neither do we in any way deride or under
estimate their valuable services. More
than nine-tenths of the members of the
Legion are honored and respected com
rades of the GAR, and at the present
time we have as members more than 5Oo
past and present National and Depart
ment officers of the GAR.
But the present generation is laying the
foundation for true history OF the war
for the Union, and we are assisting to
make that history by setting apart the
survivors of that noble army of veterans
veterans, in truth, to whose courage,
fidelity, pertinacity, self-sacrificing spirit
and long continued suffering is mainly
due the final and glorious triumph OF our
arms.
No man who gave long and continued
service to the Union cause by enlisting
in the ranks Of his country'S defenders
prior to July 1, 1858, for three years, can
afford to throw aside the glorious heritage
of fame which, by such service, he is
enabled to bequeath to his posterity.
The honorable discharge of long-serv-
fee veteran in the Union armies and navy
is patent of nobility greater by far than
any held by monarch, prince, or lord,
whose title comes to him by accident ol
birth alone.
1t is duty we owe our posterity, and to
.he rising generation seeking to know to
whom they are really indebted for all the
blessings and privileges they now enjoy in
an unbroSen, happy, and peaceful Union
of States-a prosperous and glorious
country. In order to show the gratitude
they feel we should enable them TO dis.
tinguish for themselves out of the heterO,
gcneous mass Of ex-soldiers yet living who
are Justly and unquestionably entitled tt
the name of veteran.
1t is generally conceded and believed
that those who entered the service prior t.
July /, 1853, had but one object in view:
that was the preservation of the Union
There were no large bounties before tha
consequently those who shouldered {
musket or welded a saber felt that it was
a sacred duty to offer their young lives
in the defense Of their countrys honor.

Principles and Objects Sci

mander.

Editor National Tribune: As very many
OF the old ex-soldiers are not acquainted
with the objects and principles OF the
Union Veteran Legion, and where not
fully understood it is often cOnfounded
with another semi-military Order of SINH
lar name, now, with your permission; and
through your valuable paper, l will en-
deavof to explain why this organization
differs, does not conflict with, nor an
tagonize any other old soldier Order.
The objects of the Union Veteran Legion
are:
1. The cultivation of true devotion TO
American Government and institutions;
3 The moral, social, and intellectual
improvement Of its members and their
relief, and the relief of their widows and
orphans in sickness and distress;
B. The preservation of friendly relations
among those who fought for the safety Of
the American Union;
4. By personal example ard influence of
its members to perpetuate the three great
principles, Charity and Pat
