government suppress the Mexican revolutionary
Junta at St Louis. which publishes IN Spanish a
paper called "Regeneracion." He contends that

that have already occurred nothing more than

Mr. Thompson gives as his opinion that the stu

insisted that revolt in Mexico against foreigners
is imminent has created decided feeling OF
among the foreigners and excited the common
Mexican 10 thoughts OF what might be done along
the lines discussed in the publications. He adds:
If after all this agitation, for nearly all OF which

DECORATION DAY.

All over the country whether In the
north or in the south, today will be
celebrated In honor Of those who
fought and died in order that "the
great debate of whether or not this
country should be one and indivisible
might be settled. The veterans of
the great conflict will gather to place
flowers on the graves of not only
those who found death in the struggle
but also on the graves Of those who
have passed from their ranks since
last Decoration Day. Each year sees,
the number of the latter constantly
increasing, and 1t will not be many
years until the last of them has re-
ported to his commander in the here
after. The thirtieth of May has been
known as Decoration Day" ever
since General Logan's order in 1868
officially set aside for the observance
of reminiscent patriotism. To that
passing generation which lived
through the horrors and sufferings of
the titanic Civil War the date is elo-

which he passed. To the woman he
left behind it recalls days of anxiety

OF the papers. To the children of that
age. since grown to manhood, Deco

joy over the news of some great VIC

disastrous defeat. and the conse-
quent worry over the fate of some
one near and dear who may have par
ticipated in the battle. To those of
the present generation it only recalls
the exploits of some favorite hero as
told in the school histories. All of us,
however, no matter of what genera
tion, cannot help feeling a. thrill of
pride and reverence sweep over us
when we see the veterans on their
way to the cemetery, to pay their re-
membranes to the comrades who
have passed on before. And when
they too are gone the present genera
