and then chance it for the rest o the way.
III she stops, turns back, is burnt, bowed
up or sunk I'll take to the woods and
march to Chattanooga, if | can't get onto
the railroad, and I'll take every man that
can walk with me. That's my little
speech"
You hear the mellow trin Of his ba-
ZOO said Shorty. He's the boss OF this
outfit. He talks for all of us"
I'm with you, ST." said Jake Dye. I'm
sick of this Ordnance layout I've only
stuck to it because it promised a chance
to get to my regiment. My boys are the
same way. They all belong with Sher-
man. Wen jump the job the minute
there's no show of getting through to the
Old MAN."
We'll, boys" said Shad, I'm with Won
till Gabriel toGts his horn. But the way
is to stick to this boat and do our duty as
we set out to do. Sherman needs these
pontOOns, and needs them bad; probably
needs them worse than he does us. Wen
get along all the better by playing fair all
around. We're in charge OF this cargo,
and we'll come out all the better by hang
ing on to it and the boat. She's brought
us through so far in great shape. and we
can't improve on sticking to her. We must
get these pOntOons through if there's
chance. We can't go back; that's sure.
We see what has happened at Johnson
vile. We can't stay here. 1t may be-
Johnsonville over again here any hour.
That leaves us only one thing to do-go
straight ahead. They say that we can't
get up over the Muscle Shoals at this
stage Of water. ! don't believe it. This
boat only draws IS inches. and I believe
we've got pilot that can find that much
water somewhere on the shoals. He's
good, true Union man, and we've found
out that we can trust him."
Since you put it that way" said the
pilot, who had come up and overheard,
IN take you through, or leave the boats
bones to bleach on the rocks. It'll take
lot of hard work, and there's never been
boat of this size taken up the rapids
at this stage of water, but | can take the
Lorena if any man living can. I'm an
East Tennessean, and just as good a
Union man as ever lived, and I'd ike to
show you that you amt a mite more in
earnest for the Union than | am. I'll
start the minute you say
We're ali ready" said Shorty. "Jake
Dye promised easy times and plenty to
eat, if we'd only go with him, and we're
going to hold him to his promise. So long
as you don't interfere with those privileges
go ahead"

the larboard guards, amidships, to where
they could rush it forward at the criti-
cal moment to the bow and let drive.
Sandy was to hold the trail and pull the
lanyard, while Monty, Harry and Pete
were to run the gun forward and point it,
when Harry was to give the command to
fire.
I'm take the fellow that's lining his
men up with his sword there by the
young sycamore" said Shad raising his
gun, as the boat pushed forward to with
,Ovd iIne range.
''All right" answered Shorty. I'll take
that Teller that's walking along that drift
log getting his men behind it. You fire
first and I'll foller."
In a second Shad's gun cracked, and
the rebel officer dropped his sword,
clutched at his side, and staggered back
ward. Some of his men sprang to catch
him.
Good murmured Shorty; "now let me
make EN- huddle around the other Teller"
His bullet caught the rebel in his thigh
and made a commotion among his men,
when Sis and Jake's companies manned
the guards and delivered volleys, one after
the other. AS Jake's company fired Sandy
pulled the lanyard and the gun beloved.

CONTINUE THE FIGHT.

Now that Organism is disposed of fol
good and all, The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
will resume the fight for veterans rights
and maintain it until we obtain substan
tial justice for all who served their coun.
try in the hour of need and for their wild
ows. We shall struggle indefatigably IN
til we gain:
1. The execution of the pension laws
now upon the statute books according to
their true intent and purport;
.. The passage of the Veterans Prefer
ence Bill;
3. The establishment of the Court of
Pension Appeals;
f. The passage of a Service Pension Bill
giving every honorably discharged soldier
and sailor pension, his discharge to be
his pension certificate, without the neces-
sity OF any furthef evidence or examina-
ton.
Those who favor these measures of JUS
tice should do their best to promote them
by becoming subscribers to THE NATION
AL TRIBUNE. We can only secure them
by presenting solid front upon them, and
rallying on The NATIONAL TRIBUNE. We
shall get nothing if we divide our forces.
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE is everywhere
recognized as the champion and spokes-
man of the veterans. The more subscrib-
ers it has the more weight il will have in
advocating what we want. Every add
tional name gives it more strength for the
right. Let everybody get up clubs for it,
and demonstrate to the lawmakers that it
voices the wishes and feelings of the vet
Grams as a body. Everyone can help the
cause along by sending in at least one
name in addition to his own. Go to work
now, comrades.

THERE is again fear that everybody
but the ofIiceholders are moving away
from Nevada, and there will be nobody
left there TO pay taxes. She is the only
State that shows a diminution Of popula-
tion, and like the living skeleton every
ounce of whose flesh was important, she
can not afford to lose a man. 1t is ex-
traYagant to even indulge in her old-time
festivity of hanging a horse-thief. Ne
vada reached her perihelion in the census
of 1880, which showed her population to
be 62,266. In 1890 she had dropped to
44,S27, loss of 2S.S1 per cent, or nearly
three out of every TO- This census shows
only 1884 people. Nevada has territory
enough-109,740 square miles, or nearly
twice as large as Pennsylvania. All she
lacks, as was once said of Texas, is IVA
ter and good society" Somebody was
cruel enough to point out that there is
another place that is conspicuously lack
ing in those two requirements.
