ISSUES IN G. A. r. CONVENTION
Clash Certain If the Soldiers Home Caneen Question Intro
duced-other Questions.

Grafton which the public .entertains for
this noble organization. They ridicule
the idea that the abolitionS of the cam
teen is an insult to the old soldier and
are ready to maintain that it is even
more of an insult to him to insist that
he must have the canteen. The plea
that the old soldier should be allowed
to do as he pleases, even to get drunk
when he likes and wherever he chooses.
is something that considerable ele-
ment of the Grand Army will not stand
for. It is evident from the talk one
hears about the streets today that, if
this issue is raised, there will be such
a display of intellectual fireworks as
the sessions of the national encamp-
ment have not witnessed for some time.
Memorial Day Appeal.
An appeal to the different state legis-
latures to pass laws prohibiting the
desecration of Memorial day may bs
feature of the Grand Army encamp-
ment, for movement is on foot among
the veterans to obtain an official ex-
preston of the G.. A. r. attitude
in regard to the celebration Of
Memorial day and there is gem
eral feeling that the sentiments
of the veterans should be ex-
pressed at the. Minneapolis en-
campment. Baseball games and all
other amusements will be put under the
ban, according to the proposed reso-
luton, and the legislature in every.
state in the Union will be asked To-

The prospect has been that the Grand
Army encampment would be devoid Of
issues and questions Of vital interest.
Nothing has seemed to- be likely to
come up which would provoke con-
troversy. It is beginning to be appar-
ent, however, that if the question of
carteens at the national soldiers home
is brought before the encanipment there
will be excitement enough to satisfy
everybody. ;,
Congress has declared by law that
canteens shall not be maintained in con-
nection with national soldiers homes.
Quite recently there has been consid-
erable said in the newspapers which
would indicate that some one is making
an effort to put the Grand Army OH
record against that law and in favor of
re-establishing the canteen. There are
those who hope that this issue will never
be raised in the encampment, but if It
is they are prepared to fight it and
fight it hard. Their feeling is that the
Grand Army can't afford to go on rec
ord as favoring the canteen and they
are prepared to show, they say, that
experience justifies the discontinuance
Of the canteen.
Not for the Canteen.
They think also that it would be
great misfortune so far as the or
ganization itself is concerned if the
Grand Army were to declare in favor
of the canteen, and that it would Sc
riously impair the respect, and consid-

he was suddenly startled by the wasp
like hiss of bullets about his head. For

shots were fired by the First battalion

Fully hundred shots were fred, but
the impatience Of the oonspirators led
them to open fire at such distance as
to frustrate their object. Before the

were taken from the troops, and the
officers had taken the precaution to

Long before the sun rose for a new
