Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1904-05-27

The object Of the Grand Army In its
relation to civil life, and aside from its
traditional association and charitable
work, was to organize the victory
which had been won on the field OF
battle. The post rooms become schools
of loyalty where reverence for the flag
as the. symbol of the nation has been
bersistently inculcated and where the
national idea has been constantly ex-
allied. Then came the work in the
schools of which mention has been
made and whereof all the land knows.
It is not too much to say that owing
to the far-reaching influence OF the
Grand Army Of the Republic more
than to anything else the flag is now
universally revered, and there is no
longer any question in the land, either
in the North or South, that the Amer
lean people now constitute nation.
Day after day, as the glory OF their
achievements in all the arts of peace
is finding new acknowledgment in ev-
cry quarter of the globe, there comes
new evidence that they are unit
the world encompassing power OF the
future-great, glorious, invincible.
But what of the men who won this
priceless heritage in the most stupen'
dous struggle of the modern age?
They are passing, passing. swiftly
passing. More than ever now each
annual encampment brings home the
tragedy of death in life. More than
ever now each annual encampment
emphasizes the grim, solemn fact that
soon-all too soon-the Grand Army
of the Republic, with all that it SYM
bolizes, will be nothing but tradi-
ton. Figures that do not lie give
much food for thought-sad, intros'
pective thought.
In April, 1865, more than million
of men were in the military service OF
the United States. To these must be
added a roll of names which at that
time numbered over three hundred
and fifty thousand-the grand army
of the dead.
During the four years of the desper
ate conflict altogether 2,S59,132 men
had been enrolled in the military ser
vice. There had been killed in bat
tie $685. died of wounds and Other
injuries, 43,032; of disease, 224,5S6
and from causes not classified, 24,S5l
"a total death roll of 359.528.
This vast army had taken part In
more than two thousand engagements

many of them of minor Importance as
to the number of men engaged or re-
suits attained, while others were
mighty battles which strained all the
resources and tested the fullest pow
ers of endurance of the great oppos-
ing armies, to an extent which must
make the legend, which floated from

the Capitol, while the conquerors
were marching by during those two
memorable days of the grand spectac'
ular peace review: THE Only Nation

Debt We Owe the Victorious Union
Soldiers" ring down the ages forever.
1t was out of all this that the Grand
Army of the Republic grew into being
in 1878, with a membership of only 3D.
DIG, out of all those hundreds of thou
sands of veterans. But it's growth was
ineyitable-as inevitable as it's decline
and DEATH In 1890 the organization
reached the high-water mark with an
enrolment of 409,4S9, since which
time it has diminished at the rate OF
two, three, four, five, six, seven, yes,
and even eight thousand year and
more. In 1892 the roll had sunk to
263,745. In that year alone $500 an
swered their final summons.
Pause for a moment and think what
that means. Over eight thousand
members passing away every year and
the ratio increasing rapidly. Can your
mind grasp the figures in all their pa
thetic significance? Eight thousand
every year, and soon it may be nine.
ten, eleven-who shall say how many
more thousands-till the roster Is to-
tally effaced.
Stand on the street when the men
who have come to live over again the
stirring days of the past go marching
by. Count them If you can and you
will find that there are nearly eight
thousand in line. 1t Is an imposing
array; a vast host, the like of which
is rarely seen in one tense, eager body.
And then let your mind try to grasp
the thought that before another year
has passed all those marching thou

hand in his pocket and drew out a
big shining half-dollar.
George" he said, "if Miss Clari.
bel gives you any more notes for
me, you bring 'em to me, and you'll
get a halfdollar for each one"
George assented willingly and was
happy. Behold, his work had at last
borne fruit. There was balm in Gil.
cad and good in birthdays after all.
1t was a great day for George
Washington. His wealth commanded
the admiration of others, both white
and black, of his own age, and he
bought the harmonica his musical
soul longed for. The tail of the day
found him penniless but happy, save
for the four-mile homeward tramp
AS for the greeting he would get
on arrival that was too far in the
future to bother him. How to get
home was the problem.
Carlin had not gone back, and
George found him in Doc Stayton's
drug store.

Lex" he said, "for to tell you sump-
in what Miss Clarbel done tole me

suspiciously.

George Washington frankly. Hit

Carter, dat Miss Mary want her to-"
why in thunder didn't you tell me
this before, you little imp?" growled
Carlin as he started for his buggy.
Tired with his day, George Wash
ington alternately slumbered and
logged awake as the buggy whirled
along over the rough Virginia road to
Fairview hall.
When at last they drew up in the
circle before the door, and he had
hitched the horse to the old locust at
| the corner of the veranda, George
Washington lost no time in climbing
to his bed over the back kitchen.
1t was not destined to long. He
was brought out of sleep and his
quilts with jerk and hand grasp
ing his collar. The hand was that OF
Mr.. Carlin, and it marched George
Washington down the kitchen stairs,
through the dining room into the par
lor, where Miss Claribel was sitting
with an indignant flush on her face
and her eyes swapping.

wrote him notes?" said Miss Claribel

From this pulpit Of broken stone we
speak forth our earnest greeting to all
our land. We offer to the President
of the United States our solemn con-
CALCULATIONS that God has sustained
his life and health under the unpar-
alleled burdens and sufferings for four
bloody years, and permitted him TO
behold this suspicious contamination
of that national unity for which he has
waited with so much patience and for
titude, and for which he has labored
with such disinterested wisdom. 10
the members of the government asso-
ciated with him in the administration
of perilous affairs in critical times; to
the senators and representatives OF
the United States, who have eagerly
fashioned the instruments by which
the popular will might express and en-
force itself, we tender our grateful
thanks.
To the officers and men of the army
and navy who have so faithfully and
so skillfully and gloriously upheld
their country's authority, by suffering,
labor and sublime courage, we offer a
heart tribute beyond the compass Of
words.
Upon those true and faithful citi-
zens, men and women, who have
borne up with unflinching hope in the
darkest hour, and covered the land
with their labor of love and charity,
we invoke the divinest blessing of him
whom they have so truly initiated.
But chiefly to thee, God of our fathers,
we render thanksgiving and praise for
that wondrous providence that has
brought forth from such harvest of
war the seed of so much liberty and
peace!
We invoke peace upon the North!
Peace be to the West! Peace be up
on the South!
In the name of God we lift up our
banner and dedicate it to peace, I'M
ion and liberty now and forevermore!
Amen.-Oration Delivered April IA,
1865, by Request of President Lincoln,
at the Raising Of the Flag Over Fort
Sumter.
