MUCH SOUGHT VICTORIA CROSS.

1t Is probable that Of the 1000 men who
have sailed during the last month from
ENGLAND for South Africa there is hardly
a single officer or soldier who does not
look forward to returning home with that
! little bronze badge known as the Victoria
cross pinned upon his breast. 1t is a dis
tinction that is within the reach of every
membe of the entire force, from the divi-
sional generals down to the smallest
bugler or drummer boy, and there is not
one OF them who would not infinitely pre-
fer 1t to any form Of promotion. For it's
possession indicates that it's owners is in
every sense of the word for some signal
act Of altogether exceptional bravery,
partaking Of the character of heroism. It
was founded at the time of the Crimean
war, and among those whose breasts it
adorns are generals such as Sir Redvers
Butler, who commands in chief in South
Africa. Field Marshal Lord Roberts and
plain, ordinary privates in the army. In
cross men won the distinction as privates
or non-commissined officers of the army
and as common sailors in the navy.
Sir Redvers Butler, for instance. receive
ed his Victoria eros sfor riding back three
times in n day in the face Of a holly
pursuing foe to rescue wounded comrades
soldiers. Lord William Beresford,
who is married to an American lady, the
widowed Mrs. Hammersley of New York,
received 1t for feats of a similar charac-
to. 1eHSIdI ST Evelyn WOOO got II IN
india for advancing. under a heavy fire
along a narrow causeway to place a bag
of gunpowder against the gate of a city
which the English were to storm during
the mutiny, while at least two midship-
men received the cross for picking up
bombs from the decks Of their vessels
during the Crimean war inc throwing
them overheard before the sizzling fuse
had time to explode the shell and carry
death n destruction to all around it.
In the case Of military men the ribbon
Is of red. while in the navy the ribbon is
blue. The metal Of which the cross is
made is Of that same kind Of bronze that
nifty years ago was used for field guns.
The cross is of the style known as NAL
tese: mas the rosy crown surmounted by
the lion In the center, and underneath a
scroll bearing the inscription. For valor."
1t Is hung suspended by a W ring to a
bar, on the reverse sid Of which the rank
and name of the recipient is engraved.
while on the cross itself are inscribed the
name and date Of the action in which the
honor was won.
Any additional act Of bravery which
would have won the Victoria cross for it's
noider had he not already possessed it is
slgna!ized by a bar or clasp being added
to the ribbon just above the bar from
which the cross is suspended. The cross
carries with it a pension of $50 a year. ana
an additional $25 is given for each bar. r.,
the best of my knowledge there is no Vic
torla cross maj who can boast of an adj
ditional bar to his cross.
1t must be thoroughly understood that
the feats of bravery for which the crosse
IS concerned must hav: been performs ed In

SELECT YOUR CANDIDATES.

Ihere are going to be several offices
to fill and more than several candidates
DESTROYS of filling them. The work of
the people, 1t is thought, will be in
filling them. The politician is going to
lend considerable aid in that behalf.
even in voting and revoting; but It Is
still thought that the people will have
more OF less to do with 1t.
What is desired, therefore, Is a.
proper selection. There are enough
good Democrats In this city put on a
good ticket. Don't leave 1t to the poll
ticians to do the work for you.
Pick cut your man on account of his
record. his capabilty, his environ
ments. his associates and his integrity.
Pick out candidate like you would n
person to fill a position for yourself.
You would hardly expect hod-carrier
to make n good piano tuner; nor would
one look for many bricks on the TOP
OF building, If a musician took to the
trowel.
Let the candidate have good record.
His record may not be bad, 1t may not
be at all, but someone may have n
record for him.
Then, as to politics. II Is we'll known
that the salaried officers manage and
control and dictate the policy of the
party. Therefore, 1t behooves every
good Democrat. every property owner,
every citizen, every MAN. to see that
no man is elected who has ever dared
to put his foot upon the necks of the
people. Who in the interest of himself,
or others, has suppressed popular
choice. or primaries, or who has en-
deaYored to disfranchise- Democrats
Look we'll into this for 1t is OF vital
Importance. The party's safety and
success lies in this. No self-respecting
man is going to be herded up like
sheep, end voted as some Office holder
desires, for the Office holders friend.
When an ofIice-holder has friends
seeking office that he wishes to serve
at the sacrifice of primaries it is time
he was stepping aside.
