SHALL 1T BE ABANDONED

The declaration made by one who SYM
pathizes fully with the true purpose OF
Memorial day and not at all with the re-
cent manner and matter Of its observance
so far as most Of the people are concerned
that the abandonment OF all pretense OF
its observance would be better than
fragrant neglect and disregard OF its spirit
and real requirements, is not without
justification |. seems to have become
painfully apparent that only the spectac-
ular features Of Memorial day are noted
by the many The parades and brass
bands are looked at, but memorial services
are neglected and memorial addresses arr
most times made to empty seats.
would assuredly be better to cease al
attempts to make public occasion OF
Memorial day than to have its observance
become entirely repetition of the average
fourth Of July celebration.

this: That ninety.nine per cent of the
republican party is still essentially tn,
party Of LINCOLN and in following his line:
it will continue to be successful This
statement made by President Roosevelt
in the course of one of his addresses a.
Lansing last week, was probably not i'm
portant as matter of information but j
is important as a declaration by Mr.
Roosevelt as to his Interpretation Of th,
status and sentiment Of the great body o
the republican party 1t is not only tn,
party Of Lincoln but ii has continued u
be influenced by the sympathes of Lin
coin and the spirit Of Lincoln And thu
republican party has been successful be
cause it renamed true to its best ideal
and has deserved to succeed
