The Wirz Incident.

Notwithstanding that the cooler
heads of the G. A. R. realized that the
more resolutions against the Wirz mon
ument the more 1t would be erected,
the }encampment took action against
the proposed Dissertation of the ground
around Andersonville. But the resolu-
tion finally adopted is automatically
worded. 1t calls upon the commander
in-chief to get in communication with
the commander of the Confederate Vet
Grams and try to get them to use their
influence in the south against the con-
summation Of the plan. This is much
better than straight resolution de-
nouncing the project, which could have
had no other effect than to arouse the
chivalry of the southern men to back
up the southern women. Practically
the business is now up to the Confed-
crate Veterans. They will receive a
perfectly proper request thru the prop
er channels. If they value the cour-
tesy that has been done them, they will
listen to the appeal. If they can do
nothing else, they will at least remain
neutral and negatively put their veto
upon: an act which can have no other
effect than to strain the relations be-
tween north and south. Whether the
southern veterans act positively or neg
atively, the Grand Army has done its
duty, and done it in such a way as to
merit the continued good feeling OF
their late antagonists. The G. A. r.
will have lost nothing in dignity by
seeking the assistance Of the Confeder-
ate Veterans Indeed, we can imagine
q request of a like character, If such
one were possible, receiving nothing
but the most kindly and courteous at
tention from the G.. A. R. It rather
suggests state of amity and a mutu
atty Of interest and good feeling which
may be intensified by this appeal to it

or "THE PRISONER or zENDA"
TYPE.-A tale Of love, honor. and. in
trigue, which smacks Of The Prisoner
Of Zenda'' La John Reed SCOTS The
Colonel Of the Red Huzzars. The hero
is an American army officer, descended
from European royalty, who by the de-
cree of fortune and the United States
war department, is sent as a. military
attache to the capital Of his ancestral
kingdom. There he is presented to the
king, wins his favor, and that Of the
princess royal, Is restored to his ancestral
Estates made archduke, a colonel Of the
Red Huzzars, and heir to the throne,
but, Of course not without opposition on
the part Of the man who had expected to
become king and win the princess for his
bride. This heir presumptive secures the
services Of a beautiful but unscrupulous,
American woman, who very inopportunely
appears and claims the American arch
duke as her husband, and produces a GER
tiflcate 81 marriage In support OF her
claim or course, there is trouble.
The story is well constructed, we'll told,
and holds the interest turnout.

Brigadier General Whit, who has been
assigned by the war department to COM
mand the Fort Riley maneuvers OF regu-,
lars and state troops, has issued an order
that during the encampment no man
shall wear whiskers nor have hair on his
head longer than hall. an inch, back or
front. This order has COMPOUNDED the
militia, and there is promise Of whole
sale assertions from the Kansas regi-
ments. The militiamen from the farming
districts Of Kansas play a long suit on
whiskers and are affronted at such an
order In these peace rnaneuvers no one
is liable to be shot, but the Kansas militia
might be disabled by having it's whis-
kers singed. =

It is very gratifying to listen to the
many compliments paid to the city Of
Minneapolis by visitors Of the past week.
Our guests have been prompt and gener-
Gus in their expressions Of appreciation
of what we have attempted to do to make
their visit pleasant. We are assured over
and over again that never before was an
encampment Of the Grand Army handled

dict we strove for, and are naturally much
gratif1ed that 1t should be rendered.

Well Disposed Of.

In view of the extent to which the
matter was discussed before the en-
campment and the heat with which the
action of congress was condemned by
certain prominent members Of the
Grand Army, the ease and dispatch
with which the encampment disposed OF
the resolution censuring congress for
abolishing the canteen in the soldiers
homes must have been source Of con-
siderable surprise to some people. And
yet, the Grand Army did the only thing
it could afford to do. It would have
been serious mistake to have done
anything else. There is nothing in the
way of secular organization In this
country which we want to look up to
with more reverence and respect than
the Grand Army, and while there may
be plenty of room for difference of
opinion as to the merits Of the anti
canteen law as applied to the regular
army, it would have been misfortune
to have had the Grand Army express
itself against the action Of congress in
closing the canteens in the soldiers
homes. There was no occasion what
ever for any action Of any kind by the
Grand Army on the subject, and a de-
liverance in favor of the canteen would
have lowered the organization in the
esteem of nearly everybody whose re-
spect is worth having. The strange
thing is that the proposition to declare
in favor of the canteen should have
received as much favorable considera.

interurban Telephone Service.

To the Editor Of The Journal =
Not only are people thinking, but talk
Ing as well about whether the public in
general, who are most liberal patrons Of
the telephone system of Minneapolis and
st. Paul, are to submit willingly to being
held up for extra charges for service be-
tween the two cities.
1t should not be tolerated by the bust
ness and resident renters Of telephones
who pay good stiff price per month for
use of phones.
Many having from two to a dozen In
use In both cities are obliged to pay 10
cents above the regular rental each time
they wish to converse with home OF
office.
| All expect and are willing to pay extra
Flor long distance service outside sale

one--and the interurban service should
be free to all who rent phones. hope
the matter will be taken UP by, the com
