At meeting held on above date the
Post, by a unanimous vote, passed the
following resolutions:
WHEREAS, The Union Veteran Union" at
its cncampment recently held In Des MOines,
Iowa, as body took high grounds as wholesale
critics against our National and State admins
tratiOns, and in an unwarranted manner
passed a series OF resolutions boldly denouncing
our COmrade President WIN. Mckinley for his
conduct of the war; Secretary OF Agriculture,
Hon. James Wilson. because of some personal
differences between him and the leaders of said
order; and bitterly cOndemning our Hon. Gov.
Leslie NJ. Shaw for his recommendation Of J..
Rush LiucOln as Brig. General in the Spanish.
American war for humanity, therefore be it
RESOLVED, BY Allison Post No. "a &. A. r..
Department of Iowa, that we positively and
sOundly denOunce all such action and public
utteranceS byan body of men enjoying the
protection OF our flag as American citizens and
equally sharing in the rich blessings OF our
| cherished Institutions; and especially do we
deeply deplOre the fact that such unwarranted
sentiments should be thus publicly expressed In
this hour of national trial by comrades, who 50

the honor of our flag, themselves to repel such
cOwardly attacks OF home rebels In the rear.
While we realize that our brave boys now at
the front, faithfully prosecuting the work and
enforcing the principles OF our government, are
seriously embarrassed and retarded In their
tlrclesS efforts, and the enemy finds new ell
enlargement each day in the magniied reports
of dissensiOns at home among those who from
supporters OF our flag at home and abroad.
RESOLVED, That we asa Post hereby most
heartily approve the wise course OF our Presi-
dent in his able, diScrete and humane conduct
of the war both with Spain and the Philippines
and deem it one of the most timely acts OF dis
erection and wisdom on the part OF any admins
tratiOn of state or Nation in recommending and
appointing such able and patriotic men rs FitZ
Hugh Lee, Joseph Wheeler and J. Rush Lin
coin to the high positions of trust IN the conduct
of the war, and thus doing more than any other
one thing toward uniting us again south and

heartily commend Gov. Shaw for promptly ap
proving the unanimous recommendation
of the Iowa delegation in Congress for fine
commission OF j. Rush Lincoln as Brigadi9r
General in the American Army.

Diseases of Memory.

Writing of diseases of the memory, a
Russian doctor gives an interesting &C.
count Of some of the eccentricities of
his patients. In the case Of literary
man, some time previous to his seeking
advice be had been troubled with an
absolute failure of memory.
He could remember exactly eyerv-
thing he bad done more than a year
ago, but occurrences of later date he
had entirely forgotten. When attacked
by the disease, he was engaged in writ
ing novel, which he had half finished
He remembered the first half, but could
not tell how he had intended to finish
it. He was at last unable to remember
whether he had dined.
In another case the patient tells Of
his travels, but repeats the tales dozen
times an hour, with the same phrases.
He would play game Of cards care
fully and well; five minutes afterward
he would mention that he had not play
ed for weeks. Ho would say ."Good
morning!" when the doctor made bis
first visit of the day, but did not re.
member the visit three minutes later if
the doctor again looked in.-London

appointed to consider meas

system of taxing personally
that foreign corporations doing
business in the state be charged
license fees; that an annual
franchise tax be levied on cor

AS the city election APP
proaches, the candidates for
aldermansnip in the different
wards seem to accumulate. II
will be a good thing if some OF
the corporation tools who are
holding down chairs i'll the
council are relegated to private
life, and citizens who have the
welfare OF the city elected in
their places. It is not neces-
sary to mention names, for a
glance at the retiring list of al
dermen will make it easy to
tell who those are that are unde-
sirable. What Duluth needs
more than any other one thing
is a council that will work for
the welfare Of the city. There
are a number Of thoroughly
good men in the present coun-
eli, and a few mighty poor spe-
cimens. Keep the good ones
and dispense with the others.

Big Men and Big Noses,

Cyrano de Bergerac is remembered
because Of bis large nose. Few know
that he was a poet, and fewer still
know his poetry. The nose is; conspic-
uous feature of history. The length of
Cleopatra's is said to have figured in
Roman politics, and a scandal grew out
Of it which ended in the ruin and death
Of Antony and the establishment Of an
empire which lasted thousand years.
Napoleon would not promote a man
who had not large nose. He himself
was we'll favored in this respect Caesar
was ''the hook nosed Roman"
All American statesmen have been
noted for this feature. Old men tell of
our own Benton, who used to shake his
nose like an elephants probosois when
he got excited It seems to be the Law
that all great men have great noses,
but let nc one think that the converse
Of this is true, that all men who have
great noses are great men. Such con-
clusion would lead to confusion and
needless pain and disappointment.-St.
Louis Post-Dispatch.
