Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty.

The greatest service the Grand Army
of the Republic has rendered is the
beautiful way in which 1t gives life to
the principles of the organization-fra-
ternity, charity and loyalty.
That millions of men of every degree
Of life and station should for 40 years
be bound together by this common bond
of brotherhood is not only worthy of
admiration, but also of imitation by the
members of this republic.
Charity, or love, is the greatest thing
in the world. and love is the key to
every department of life. the founda-
ton of patriotic teaching, the safety Of
the country. the home and The indiyid-
ual.
Loyalty to their comrades, their or
ganization, their country and their God
has been fttingly illustrated in the
lives of these boys in blue,
This trinity OF principles, if copied
by our 81 $1,000. 900 citizens, would make
us the greatest nation on earth.

Sleening. Not Dead.

re silent men, who to your country gave
The last full measure of ~devoUon-life-
We fell asleep while the tumultuous
strife
Around yeu swelled in fury. like the wave
Which breaks upon the rocks which prove
its grave.
To-day, around you all the air is rife
With wailing cries from bugle and from
fife
he voice Of that dear land you died to
save,
lay, We have never died-ye live to-day
In every soul which joys tina it is free;
/ that fair flag with which the Dreezes
play,
With every flashing star undimmed, I'M
lost;
! all our hearts. which clay like yours
shall be
Before our land forgets what freedom
cost.

The Fallen.

Hark! a bugle winds shrill
O'er the brow of the hill,
t whose base stygian waters outpour;
IT'S our comrades, beyond sight,
Signal back through the night
, the few who are left on this shore.
Old Charon oars free
Our brave hosts through the sea,
) they, prompt to the bugle. respond
How his boat rocks and rolls,
With the weight of their souls,
no are linked with affections strong
bond.
To the blue and the gray
Gives he each right OF way,
i'd a chaplet of glory as well;
Since nobly they fought
Each as honor had taught,
ID nobly, as heroes, they fell.

A OF SENTIMENT.
Ceremonies in Cemeteries School Of
Patriotism for Both Old
and Young.

On every national anniversary, ex-
cept Memorial day, we deal with things
of life. rather thar Of death.
On Independence day We celebrate the
nations birth; Oh Washington and Lin
coin days the birth anniversaries Of it's
immortal patriots; on Thanksgiving
day the f~ullness and blessings Of ma
tional prosperity.
On Memorial day alone we give pause
for tears; on this hallowed anniversary
we weave chaplets for the nations
glorious dead.
And how glorious they are-these
myriad sleeping soldiers-and how the
glory of their deeds magnifes with the
years!
We, the living, add not at all to their
immortality in history with our flow
ers, our prayers and our tears. But
we do add something Of priceless value
to our own lives by the customs of
Memorial day. We turn these sacred
hours into a symphony of patriotism.
The benediction of to-day's flower
strewn mounds is for the living; it is
an oasis in the storms of life; a level
ing occasion when the finer sentiments
creep into the souls of American men
and women.
And the nations cemeteries are to-
day the greatest school of patriotism for
old and young that we have. For true
patriotism counts not death, If through
death the nation shall find life and
health.
No nation is in peril that has such a
Memorial day as we have. The living
will carry on the work that these heroes
gave their lives for.
On Memorial day we come back
from forgetfulness to the realities.
We know why these soldiers died. and
we vow that their sacrifice shall not
be In vain.
This nation has been carried
through all its real perils by a citizen
soldiery, as distinguished from the
mercenary militarism of other ma
lions.
American patriotism is something
apart. The simple flag that is more
than ever a world emblem of liberty
has no parallel as an inspirer of he
roic deeds.
There are those who place sordid
gain above sentiment, and care for our
prosperity only for individual profit.
But the heart of real America beats
true in every crisis. No foe, open or
secret, can successfully measure
swords with the national conscience.
And this is the real lesson of Me-
mortal day. So long as we honor our
soldier dead we will honor our coun-
try.
Memorial day gives perspective
The lettering Grand Army veteran,
and the lisping boy with cap and
drum and flag, are the visible .ex-
tremes of a common unity of patri-
otism.
P~assionless, the remnants Of former
contending armies unite in a common
sorrow and a common hope. The
blue and gray are not less hallowed
because time is blending them.
The season of natures renewal is
f~ittingly the season when this and
future generations will yearly deco
rate the graves of American soldiers.
And though one of these sleepers
hears the bugle call. each is taken
again to the national heart by the
fresh flowers in his "windowless pal
ace of rest"

Love Of country alone could have in
spired SOC, 900 men to die for the union.
Nothing less sacred than this love of
country could have sustained LIS, 900

possible Of those arrested by admin

impossible as the institution was Gov

broad program for popular education,
revision of tar laws and the insti-

The declaration was read before

scene followed when Roditcheff, lead
er Of the constitutional democrats,
flung down the gauntlet Of defiance
10 the government. He closed with
a demand for the retirement of the
bureaucratic cabinet and the creation
