Memorial Day.

Although another Memorial day finds the ranks of
the survivors of the men who fought to the
Union thinner than ever, yet at the same time 1T
finds more general desire FOR its fitting observance.
More and more as the years succeed each other are
the American people coming to perceive the value Of
the services rendered by those who periled ALL that
the Nation might live
With the passing years has also come the spirit of
broad mindedness which recognizes that the great
Civil conflict was neyitable and that it had to be
waged before it possible to the everast-
ing unity of the Nation. The passions of the war
the Union have long been fraternizng with their old
foes of the Confederacy. To-day III many communi'
ties North and South, the who wore the blue
will join with those who the gray in decorating
the graves of soldiers of both armies.
The great lesson of to day is that OF the advan-
tages of peace. The who fought like viii !
beasts with each other in the bloody angle at Spott
syvania in the mine crater at Petersburg, in the
woods at Shiloh, the ridge at Gettysburg, are
to-day casping hands in brotherhood over the graves
of those who fell these and other battefeds and
rejoicing that they longer enemies but frt nds
and the citizens of common beloved country. The
myriads of soldiers graves speak with multitude
of tongues not only for continued domestic tranquil
beating of all swords in ploughshares and the uni
versa acceptance of the teachings of the Prince of
Peace.

REAL SUMMER
FROM NOW ON.
April and May Broke all
Previous Records.

Washington, May 81 The
Weather Bureau tonight announ-
ced that all records were broken
by the low mean temperature dur
ing the last two mobths and made
this forecast;
Temperature will continue COM
paratively low Saturday and Sun
day over the eastern portion of the
country and will change little in
the extreme West.
Over the central portion 1T will
he warmer by Sunday. The en-
tire section east of the Mississip
pi may expect cool weather and
rain to morrow and Sunday. From
present indications the weather
will turn warmer by Monday and
after that we will have real sum-
mer temperature.
Following the official report OF
the bureau tonight regarding the
cool weather:
"The month jusG ended was re.
markable as being the second sue.
cessive month of abnormally low
temper atures over the middle and
northern districts east of the
Rocky Mountains except along the
Immediate Atlantic Coast The
record combined with that OF
April furnished mean tempera'
ture lower by several degrees than
the combined mean of the same
two months of any previous year
of which there is record. In the
vicinity of Washington, d. g., the
com bined mean for April and May
was 535 degrees, 3 degrees below
normal, while that for May alone
was SO degrees, also 5 degrees be
low and equaling the previous low
record of May, 1882.
"The same general conditions
also prevailed in greater or less
degree from the Middle Atlantic
States and lower lake region west
ward through the great corn and
wheat districts, and were especial
| ly marked in the Upper Mississip,
1pi Valley. In the vicinity of st
Paul the preliminary calculations
from data not entirely complete
indicate a mean temerature o.
about 46 degrees, II degrees low

Democrats Revise Tariff.

Judson Harmon, who was attorney general in the
cabinet of President Cleveland, in speech on Wed
nesday evening, made very happy uttersnce when
he said 81 do not believe the Republican leaders
will make satisfactory revision of the tariff,
if they make any at all. They say the tariff must
be REVISED by its friends, and they its friends.
We say ii be revised by the friends of the peo-
Pile and as far as the tariff is concerned, We, and
not they the friends of the people, because moth
ing is sacred to which stands in the way of the
best interests OF the people.
A tar.H revision conducted by the Republican
party be largely dictated by the trust mag
mates who have waxed enormously wealthy at the
expense of the people. They will insist upon the re-
teution OF duties which will still enable them tn
make the American people pay far too much for all
necessary articles AS Judson Harmon well says,
the task of revision should be intrusted TO the
hands OF the friends Of the tariff and its chief bene
fciaries but to those of the friends of the people
the ref resentatives of the Democratic party.

sitien as trustbuser aud railroad smasher Senator
Foraker was delivering an argument at Steubenvie,
Ohio in support Of the constitution. The former
was evidently seeking peace with Wall street, having
the approaching presidential election in mind, while
the latter appealed to the Judgment and thought of
all patriotic men. Senator Forakers address a
plea for return the sacred document of ths faith
ers strict construction and the preservation of the
states, as against liberal construction and the dan
gerous increase of federal authority and power at
the expense of the states. stronger or more elo-
quent argument in support of this ancient Democra-
tic position could not have been made by Demo-
crat. We congratulate the distinguished senator
upon his conversion. He painted picture that is
real danger that threatens. 1t is a speech that
would have sounded we'll fifty years age and one
that will sound we'll ffty years henee-a literary
gem and sledge If logic that time will weaken.

Roosevelt and Cannon.
Peace.

The speake of tie national house of representa-
tves is second only to the president of the United
States in influence and even more powerful as far as
legislation is concerned. Everyone knows that the
speaker is now given almost unlimited power to make
out the laws that congress will pass He has abso-
Lutte authority to the committees of the house.
and even the committee rules, without the
sent of which important bill can be considered, Is
under his control There is no law constitutional
provision making this one man power, but the Re-
publican majority, during the past few years, have
allowed this Capitalization in the hands of the speak
er, TO prevent the voice Of the minority from being
heard.
Speaker Cannoa has held tight rein over the
house and has majority of the Republican members
at his back that he has the power to virtually
pass defeat legislation. Being one of the old
fashioned statesmen, he runs counter to President
Roosevelt most of his policies and although act.
ing in concert with the president during the last
congress- is really one of the "reactionares if not
one of the 'conspirators." Therefore there is
trouble brewing between Boss Roosevelt and Boss
Cannon and it is stated that there will be white
house candidate for speaker unless Boss Cannon re-
signs some of his power to the president.
AS both the speaker and the president are adept
politicians they may compromise their differences
they did two years ago, but the attempt TO bluff the
speaker with the threat of rival candidate will
hardly work, for Mr Cannon holds pretty good
hand and is something of buffer himself.
There indications that the "reactonaries'' are
back of the game aud secretly urging on both sides
fight it thisine If it takes all summer but
possibly pacific councils will prevail for 'the
good of the party
1t is needless to say that lively scrap over the
speskershp with the big guns all unmbered, may
work TO the advantage OF the Democrats, for there
are enough independent Republicans, If they become
aroused, TO act with the minority and upset the
legislative plans of the Republican naet inc.

Hotel Ambrose
columbus Dlspatch)

No travelling salesman out of
Columbus who covers territory
down the Hooking Valley but has
been watching with personal
interest the building of the new
Hotel Ambrose, at Logan, Ohio.
Harry +. Ambrose, who has for
years conducted the Re mple house
at that place, had this, new house
built after his own ideas of what
country hotel should be. He
moved into the new place May 4,
and on Tuesday Of last week the
hotel was formally y opened with a
public reception, whrh was at
tended by all the leading citizens
of Logan and large number of
his friends among the commercial
travellers. The new. house has
forty guest rooms and the appoint
ments, while not attempting to be
gorgeous, are comfortable and
home-like TO the last degree. Mr..
Ambrose has the faculty, even in
his former old and out-of-date
quarters, of indiyidualizing his
house so that no one ever stopped
there without feeling that the ac-
eommodations were far above the
average of places the size of Lo-
gan. In his hew house he will
have better chance to show his
talents as hotel man and the
road men are responding TO his
enterprise by filling his house al
most every night in the week.
Such hotels as the Hotel Ambrose
are more valued by the CONNER
cial traveller than a million dollar
house in some large city, where
good hotels are ; matter OF course.

For year the price of wheat has been below

of Sugar Grove, one of the con

recipient of an amusing letter
from highly respected old citizen
of Hooking county, who evidently
thought Miss Matheny wanted to
marry him. She obtained from
friends the names of number of
Dispatch subscribers and sent to
them letters asking them to save
Dispatch coupons for her, and en-.

which they were to be mailed to
her. Among Others to whom she
sent the letters was this old Hook

Weider's Show Enjoined

Attorney o, F. Byron, acting
for NJ. w. Thomas, this morning
filed an injunction against the
Ashland Lodge Of Eagles and Will
II. Weider, Manager of the Weider
Street Fair, which the local Eagle
Lodge had arranged to bring to
this city within the next few
weeks for six days attraction.
The injunction was filed before
Judge S. G.. Kinner and will
doubtless result in a hard legal
battle.
That Mr. Thomas assailed the
City Council at mass meeting held
for the purpose of denouncing that
Legislative body for their action in
permitting the street fair to come
here, and his feeling in the matter
caused him to take the above
action.
Attorney G. r Levy stated this
morning that number of the
City Council said they would
stand by the Eagle Lodge in their
endeayor to bring the street fair
here. The result will be awaited
with interest by the public as
there is considerable feeling ex-
pressed over the case at issue

slLAeE IN FATTENlNe STEERS.
Prof. Thomas Shaw Thinks That Corn
Slage Cannot Be Beat.

In corn growing areas It is my con.
viction that no food for growing or
for fattening steers will prove cheaper
or more valuable than corn silage. In
saying this | know the opinion ex.
pressed is counter to what many be,
lieve who live in the corn beTt, but I
will not take back or modify the
statement.
A steer that is fattening and that
weighs 1000 pounds should be fed
from 30 to 40 pounds of corn silage
daily. 1t goes well with clover hay
or alfalfa or any leguminous fodder
OF the latter FIVE pounds or about
that much would be wanted per day.
The grain ration, fed ground, would
be about pound or slightly more per
day for every pound of the live weight
OF the steer. The amount mentioned
is for steer after he is on full feed.
Leading up to full feed. considerably
less would be used. The meal should
be fed on the silage. When the silage
Is put in the feed box, the meal is
thrown over 1t and the meal and
silage are mixed while they are being
eaten, which means that all is re-
chewed in chewing the cud, which is
favorable to thorough digestion.
1t will not answer to feed only silage
as the fodder ration. Some dry fod-
der is necessary as a safeguard, but
when the silage is sweet and good. IL
would be safe to feed somewhat more
than the amounts mentioned. Fed In
suitable amounts the succulence ex-
ercises a favorable influence on diges-
tion.
The day is certainly coming when
there will be a great extension in the
building of silos, and II cannot come
too soon. No other method of saving
corn will compare with It. 1t utilizes
the entire product, stalk and grain.

THE scAs INSECT.
OF All External Parasites II 10 by
Ear the Most Dangerous.

of all external parasites the scab
mite is by far the most dangerous and
troublesome, once II is permitted to
effect a lodgment upon the sheep. II
is not a common ailment upon fam
In the east, but is sufficiently preva.
lent upon the ranges of the west to
make the danger of infection great.
In fact, upon the ranges, scab and
starvation are the two principal dis.
eases among the flocks.
The scab mite is an insect so small
that It is not quite visible to the
naked eye, lives upon the skin, and by
irritating the surface, il causes
flow of the fluid upon which il lives,
and finally, by continuing this irrita-
tion, scabs or crusts are formed be.
meath which the insect deposits its
eggs. In the course of two or three
days, says Rural New Yorker, these
eggs hatch. The newly-born parasite
becomes adult in 10 days. Each fe-
male parasite will lay about IS eggs.
10 of which will bring forth females
and the other five males.
The new parasites, as soon as they
are hatched, migrate and infect the ad-
lacent territory, which makes the scat
patch spread. by the constant advance
of its circumference, and the eggs OF
new parasites are deposited upon posts
or boards upon which the sheep rub
themselves, and thus are ready to seize
any advantage to again locate them
selves upon other sheep. when they in
turn become centers of infection. Ger
ZACH, a German authority, computes
that in three months a single fema.e
scab insect may become responsible
for the existence of 100000 progeny,
thus in 45 days after infection the in
crease from one parasite might be
1.5OO; in 20 days, 100000. and in 80
days, 100000. As a matter of fact.
1t requires about 80 days for the scab
disease to become well spread and
very troublesome after introduction
