driveway winds in its course through the
city of the dead. The Harrison monument
faces east, fifty feet from the driveway
Near the monument stands a tree which
shades the grave of her who once was first
lady in the land. From the top of the hill
a sweeping view of the cemetery may be
had.
The Harrison monument is a rectangular
piece of granite, mounted on a carved
base, supported by short, thick pillars,
massive, but unostentatious. Harrison
appears in relief at the base.

Whitelaw Refd's Tribute.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 14.-Whit claw
Reid of New York last night said of ex-
President Harrison:
General Harrison ranked intellectually
among the ablest of our Presidents His
conduct of his Office was laborious and con-
scientious and he was ready when occasion
required it to assume at the same time
the detailed duty of the most exactips of
the departments His administration was
pure and the country under it was prospcr-
GUS His absorption in his work sometimes
led to brusqueness of manner which was
misconstrued, and those who knew him
slightly or not at all thought him cold.
Those more intimate found MIN hearty,
genial and in private life full of quick and
tender sympathies. He never forgot a
friend or a service though his critics
sometimes said that the same tenacty of
character might occasionally make it diff
cult for him to forget an injury. He has
distinctly gained in publfu appreciation
since his retirement from Office. The loss
of such man, when beyond further anibi-
t1on and trusted by the country, is almost
the greatest we could experience

Praise His Free Steel and Iron BILL

Praise His Free Steel and Iron Bill,
Gov. Alex. r. Shepherd, in his far-off
Mexican home, still keeps in close touch
with Washington and with all important
events that occur at the national capital

just received letter from Gov. Shepherd

at the last session. to remove the tariff duty
from iron and steel products controlled by
the new billion-dollar steel trust
Il want to bid you Godspeed in your good
work. writes Gov. Shepherd Your pro-
posed action will do more to protect the
people and control trusts than all the bla-
tant oratory and so-called remedial legisla-
tion can, and 1 believe the people will ap-
preciate it and say So.
Mr.. Babcock has been deluged with let
ters from every section of the country in
dorsing his action, hundreds of stanch re-
publicans writing him that the republican
party should take the lead in regulating
trusts, and that they are glad that the
chairman of the republican congressional
committee views the situation in the same
light. Mr.. Babcock has a scrap book full
of editorial concentrations of his bill. lie
will reintroduce the measure at the next
session of Congress, and says he believes
that ultimately it will pass as a republican
measure.

THE ENCAMPMENT.
Council OF Adm nistration Of
9th Regiment Considers IL
at Quarterly Mcetinq.

Mansfield, May 13.-The council of
administration of the Eighth regiment.
o. N. G., held its regular quarterly
meeting here Friday afternoon. The
officers composing the council were
here and were as follows: Lieut.. Col.
Charles c. Weybrecht, of Alliance;
Major A. B. Critchfield, of Shreve; Maj
ors Wuchter and Lee, of Wadsworth
and Major Fred s. Marquis, of this city.
1t was an informal meeting at which
bills were audited and ordered paid.
The matter of the annual encamp-
ment came in for the attention of the
officers. BY general consent Colonel
Vollrath will correspond with the rail-
roads regarding transportation and
Lieut.. Col. Weybrecht will investigate
sites.
Another meeting of the officers will
be held within the next six weeks and
at that time a committee will be ap-
pointed to visit the places considered
for the encampment. The regiment
would like to go to Buffalo, this being
the place most desired by the various
companies. At present decision
rendered by Attorney General Frank
Monnett, when he was in office, stands
against the>regiment going to Buffalo.
His decision was to the effect that the
state troops cannot go outside of the
state for their annual encampment and
use the states money. This decision
was given when the regiment first took
up the matter of going to New York
to the Dewey celebration.
An effort will be made to have this
decision overruled by Attorney General
Sheets. The subject will be taken up
and decision obtained after the re-
turn of Governor Nash from California.
In 1898 the regiment camped at Chicago
for awhile during the exposition and
the point was not raised then. With
that as a precedent it is hoped there
will be no difficulty in securing a deci-
sion favorable to the regiment camping
at Buffalo. After the council of admin
istration finished its work the officers
made trip to west park.

the driver Of the wagon tried to cross
the tracks of trolley line In front
Of an approaching car, but the car

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.


All Doctors have tried to cure Ca
tarrh by the use Of powders, acid gases
inhalers and drugs In paste form
Their powders dry up the mucuous
membranes causing them to crack
open and bleed. The powerful acids
used in the inhalers have entirely
eaten away the same membranes that
their makers have aimed to cure, while
pastes and ointments can not reach
the disease. An old and experienced
practitioner who has for many years
made a close study and speciality of
the treatment OF Catarrh, has at last
perfected a Treatment which when
faithfully used not only relieves at once
but permanently cures Catarrh by re-
moving the cause, stopping the dis
charges and curing the inflammation.

Senator Vest on the Dog.

One of the most eloquent tri.
butes ever paid to the dog was de-
livered by Senator Vest, of Mis-
souri,, some years ago, says the
Chicago Inter-Ocean. He was at
tending court in a country town
and while waiting for trial of q
case in which he was interested he
was urged by the attorneys in a
dog case to help them. He was
paid fee of $3.50 by the plaintiff.
Voluminous evidence went to show
that the defendant had shot the
dog in malice, while other evidence
went to show that the dog had at
tackled the defendant. Vest took
no part in the trial and was not
disposed to speak. The attorneys,
however, urged him to make a
speech, else their client would not
think that he had earned his fee.
Being thus urged he arose, scan
ned the face of each juryman for a
moment, and said:
"Gentlemen of the Jury: The
best friend man has in the world
may turn against him and become
an enemy. Nilsson or daughter that
he has reared with loving care may
prove ungratefuI. Those who are
nearest and dearest to US, those
whom we trust with our happiness
and our good name may become
traitors to their faith. The money
that man has he may lose. 1t
flies away from him, perhaps,
when he needs it most. A mans
may be sacrificed in a
moment of ill-considered action.
The people who are prone to fall on
their knees to do honor when sue
cess is with us may be the first to
throw tho stone of malice when
failure settles its clouds upon our
heads. The one absolutely unset
fish friend that man can have in
this selfish world, the one that
never deserts him, the one that
never proves ungrateful or treach-
erous, is his dog. A mans dog
stands by him in prosperity and in
in 4ealth and in sickness.
He will sleep on the ground, where
The wintryg winds blow, and the
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1901-07-12

snow drives fiercely, if only he
may be near his masters side. He
will kiss the hand that has no food
to offer; he will lick the wounds
and sores that come in encounter
with the roughness of the world.
He guards the sleep of his pauper
master, as if he was a prince.
When all other friends desert he
remains. When riches take wings
and reputation falls to pieces he is
as constant in love as the sun is in
its journey through the heavens.
eff fortune drives the master
an outcast in the world, friendli-
ness and homeless, the faithful dog
asks no higher privilege than that
of accompanying him, to guard
him against danger, to fight
against his enemies. And when
the last scene of all comes, and
death takes the master in It's en-
braces, and his body is laid away
in the cold ground, no matter if all
other friends pursue their way,
there by the graveside the noble
dog will be found, his head be-
tween his paws, his eyes sad, but
open in alert watchfulness, faith
full and true even in death"
Then Vest sat down. He had
spoken in a low voice without a
gesture. He made no reference to
the evidence or merits Of the case.
When he finished the Judge and
jury we're wiping their eyes. The
jury filed out, but soon returned
with verdict in the favor of the
plaintiff for $500. He had sued
for 5000. 1t is even said that some
of the jurors wanted to hand the
defendant.
