of childhood. Old and young
have assembled in the cemeteries,
large and small, throughout the
length and breadth of this great
land of ours and with bowed
heads placed upon the little
mounds of earth. that mark the
the bed where some soldier
sleeps, their offerings of graft
tude and love. The old fellows,
bent and gray, who march this
day each year with slow, un-
steady pace to the cemeteries, to
place a flower perhaps the last,
upon the graves of comrades who
have gone before, are rapidly
passing from amongst us, and
only few years more and the
last old hero of the Civil War
will have joined that great army
massing on tie other side. With
reverent hands we have decorated
the graves of the dead; with
kindly deeds and helping hands
let us'biighten and cheer the few
remaining years left TO the
heroes living.

There is a growing opinion that
Garden street will eventually be.
come the principal business street
of Ely. Those who share in the
belief think that, with the advent
of the new railroad through
Aultman street, the business on
that street will find the smoke,
noise, unsafeness of tying horses
in front of their establishments,
and dangers of fire sufficient
drawbacks to induce them to
move one block south, If this is
done, Garden street should be
extended through town on the
west; that is, cut block sd" be-
tween the back of Riepe's Hotel
and Magnuson Lodging House.

1t is to be hoped that the Ne
vada Northern Railway people
will have no more difficulty in
securing rights-of- way between
Ely and Toano than they had
between Copper Flat and Ely.
Between the two last named
places there are dozens of
mining claims to be passed over
and it required much preliminary
labor to ascertain the names of
the various mines and of the
owners of many scattered inter
ests. When these were deter
mined, all the owners readily
consented to sign the deeds and
seemed pleased that they were
material elements in Fastening
the construction of the only
means that will bring the county
to the front.

Colorado needs a rational and ef-
fectlve railroad regulation law: it
needs more stringent insurance laws;
it needs laws providing for the exam
ination of state banks, trust COM
panies, loan companies and public Of
fees of all kinds. 1t needs several
other good laws. If we are going to
get them 1t will be necessary for the
Republicans to settle the senatorial
question in caucus and give the legis-
lators the entire session to deliberate
over these needs and get them on the
statute books. The next Assembly
should not be permitted to daily away

Good Work of the Kicker.

Secretary Bonaparte pays little
tribute to the Kicker" as he calls
him. A few years ago this would
have been necessarily a defense, but
the kicker has got beyond the need
of defending. AS the secretary says
it is recognized that 1.-The kicker is
the only means by which an American
party is kept in ORDER The kicker
performs the same function in the
party that on occasion the party itself
performs in government. He repre-
sents the opposition; he embodies the
spirit of examination and criticism
He is justified by the current spirit
of revolt, which has concluded that
this business of travelling with the
crowd has been overdone. People
nowadays like. to flavor the stew with
their own individuality.-New York
Mail.

At Chickamauga.

Speaking of perilous positions re-
minds me that jerry Ryan, still living
in Chicago, did some eXtricating at a
critical juncture worth remembering
When Gen. John B. Turchin made his
famous charge on the afternoon OF
Sept 20 at Chickamauga the Twenty
First Indiana battery was left at the
angle where the right of Turchin's
line had rested. Ryan, with the assist
ance of a corporal and a driver, linn
bered up two guns and retired diagon-
ally back across the Lafayette road,
swinging slantwise to Clouds hill,
and, reaching Col. Dan McCooks
right, reported to that officer.
Soon Gen. Turchin swung round to
the left, driving the rebels from the
Union rear, and brought up on Clouds
hill with McCook's men. That charge
to clear the rear of the enemy was one
of the finest military spectacleS ever
saw The rebels had passed the
Union flank and were swarming in
the rear, when Gen. Thomas called
Gen. Turchin's attention to the mat
ter. Gen. Turchin forgot to present
his compliments. but said, in the hear
ing of all men, The tam raScals. We
will drive them out
he laced MS men 10 the rear ana
charged on the exultant rebels, swing
ing his line to the left. When his
horse was shot under him he followed
the charging line on foot, indicating
the direction that the line was to take
by waving his sword. After a time an
artillery horse with harness on him
was brought to Turchin, and mount
ing him, the general Unanswered his
brigade to the accomplishment of his
purpose
Gen. Turchin had a bitter contro-
versy with certain members of the
Chickamauga commission to the
position of his brigade in the final
maneuvers on Sept. 20, but l happen
to know that the late Gen. Boynton
was in sympathy with the surviving
members of McCook's brigade in their
efforts to place a monument or tablets
on McCIouds hill to mark the posi-
ton held by the brigade at the close
of the battle. The government has
built barracks on Clouds hill, but Gen.
Boynton, not long before his death,
said that he would urge the Chicka-
manga park commission to set bronze
tablets in front of the houses or quar-
tiers built on the line held by the brf-
gade when the battle closed.'-Chica-

The Deadly Whisky Barrel.

From the experience of two or
three Oklahoma men lately, a whisky
barrel seems to be about as danger
Gus after it is emptied as when it is
serving its original purpose. Two bad
accidents of the sort are reported in
the last week. J. H. Dent, living near
Saltwater, took an empty whisky bar
rel to his home and lit a match to
look into it. Mr.. Dent and his son
Lester, were both badly bruised in
the explosion which followed On the
same day a Mr.. Brown, living north
of Woodward, received a bad scalp
wound in a similar manner. 1t is
perhaps noteworthy that both acct
dents happened on Sunday.
