is a saving of at least 100000 per
anrum to those engaged in the indus
try. All other measures which the
association mad before congress failed
in passage because of the deadlocks
which existed over the statehood and
canal bills, but these bills were rein
troduced at the beginning of the extra
session and We are glad to announce
that the president complying with the
provisions of resolution passed at
the Chicago meeting ana again at the
Kansas City meeting has appointed
commission to investigate conditions
of the forest reserves and arid lands
of the west and report to him at the
earliest possible moment, with view
OF securing the passage of an AMIGA
bic bill covering this subject This
commission consists of the Hon. w.
A. Richards, Commissioner of the
General Land Office; Hon Clifford
Pinchot Chief Forester of the De-
partment of Agriculture and Fred II.
, Newell, Chief Engineer of Geological
Survey. 1t was the desire of the
stockmen that in addition to these
the president would appoint one prac-
tical cattle man and one practical
sheep man. but this was not deemed
advisable. However the Commission
is step in the right direction and no
doubt will. be of great benefit to the
industry.
!, The association has also won an
} other victory in it's efforts towards
having the operation of the forest re-
serves transferred to the Department
t Of Agriculture This was recon-
, mended by Hon. w. A. Richards, Com
, missioner of the General Land Office,
{ in his last annual report, and also in
: the Presidents message to the present
, congress- There seems to be no
IS doubt but that congress will enact this
Y law AS stated in another bulletin,
: there apepars to be no reason to
v doubt that the CELSIUS bill will become
S law at this session.

Mart Armstrong Post. of Lima. Again Nomi
mates Comrads Moulton for Department
Commander.

Mart Armstrong Post, Lima, will again
present Comrade Il. NJ. Moulton, a gallant
soldier, whose military record is without
blemish, for Department Commander
Comrade Moulton is one of the most ac-
tive Grand Army men in the Department,
and has been for years. His face is sell
dom missed from the Department or Ma
tional Encampments. He is now serving
his third term as Commander Of Mart
Armstrong Post, and is distinguished for
honorable and efficient work in the Or
der, and for his ability and fidelity in civil
affairs.
In August, 1862, Comrade Moulton, at
II years of age, enlisted as a private in
Co. Z, 117th n. Y. He went TO the front
with his regiment, was assigned to the
Army of the Potomac, and participated in
all the battles and marches of the regi-
ment until Sept. %, 1864, when at the
Battle of Chaffin's Farm he was severely
wounded and taken prisoner.
In the Winter of 1865 he was parOled;
still suffering from his wound, and sent to
Annapolis, but remained in the service IN
til mustered out June 6, 1865.
In 1851 COmrade Moulton joined the
Grand Army of the Republic as a charter
member of Cassius Maxon Post, of Rich
burg, n. Y; was its first Officer of the
Day, and was subsequently elected Senior
Vice Commander of the Post.
In 1886 he moved to Lima, and Mt once
united with the Mart Armstrong Post, and
i'm December of that year was elected
Commander of that Post, serving for two
years.
He was. twice elected a member of the
Department Council of Administration,
and has also served two years as a MEN,
Der of the National Council of Admins
tration.
Comrade Moulten has always been a
most jealous and active member of the
Grand Army, and has attended all the
Department and National Encampments
for the past fifteen years with the excep-
ton of two.
He is a genial comrade, Of large bust
ness experience, possessing superior execu-
tive abilities; is of high moral character.
and enjoys the confidence and esteem of
all who know him, and If chosen De-
partment Commander we have no hesita-
ton in assuring the comrades of Ohio that

THE GRAND ARMY.

They are moving slowly onward,
This grand army of the blue:
One by one they miss Il eomrade-
Once soldier brave and true.
Still their step is firm, but weaker.
AS they march to the hero's grave,
For they know they soon will slumber
Where the little flag will wave.
They have done their duty nobly,
Answered each and every call,
Oft-times in the face of battle
They would see their comrade fall,
But his act is still remembered.
For the gift he gladly gave,
And the flowers are the brightest
Where the little flag will wave.
They should now receive more honor,
For the sacrifice they made,
In the cause of life and freedom
From the hilltop to the glade;
Then the glory of the Nation
Which they fought so well to save,
Will arise with verdant splendor
Where the little flag will wave.
w.
As these heroes now are leaving,
And the Nation grows in powers;
We should offer many blessings
To these boys in blue of ours;

And fair Columbia save,
If we plant the rose of freedom I
