on this occasion.

on this occasion.
AS the meeting of the G. A. R. at
Saratoga, N Y, is so far east, that but
few OF this organization, we fear, will
be able to be present, we, by this or
der, make this the regular annual
business meeting for the year 1907
instead of at Saratoga, N. Y, subject
to the decision of the comrades when
convened.
Comrades, forty-five years will have
elapsed since we stood upon Shiloh's
bloody field on the memorable 9th and
7th days of April, 1862, and participat-
ed in one of the E,ost deadly strug-
giles that ever took place between
Americans on American soil, where
so many brave men laid down their
| lives in the defense of their country.
We were young then, some of us
mere beardless youths. Now but few
| the survivors are less than three
score years of age. But few more
years and the last one who participate
ed in this great battle, the results of
which have yet scarcely been under
stood. will nave passed away. This
is an opportunity for those who can
to meet together and to greet one
another inthe spirit of fraternity, char
ity and loyalty, and to participate in
the business Of this occasion, and 10
view once again the field where sc
many OF our comrades who stood by
us on that memorable occasion lie
/ buried beneath the soil dedicated tC
the cause Of liberty by their valor
/ Our great President, Theodore
Roosevelt, has emphasized the impor
lance of teaching patriotism to the
rising generation, and we know of ne
better place where lesson of patrio
tism and fidelity to duty and to coun
try could be impressed upon our sons
AM daughters than upon this celebrat
ed battlefield upon TINS occasion We
; therefore urge each comrade and eacf
, patriotic citizen to not only come AM

: bring your wives, your sons AM
daughters with you IN order that the.
may have the benefit of what the,

It Is announced that in the senate a
very strong effort is to be made to
amend the two-cent fare bill to con-
form TO the proposal of the railroads
for compromise by accepting two
and half cent fare with a 500 mile
mileage book ata2 cents. The railroad
representatives declare they will ac-
cept such law without protest.
A twe-cent 500 mile family mileage
book AVID two and one-half cent cash
passenger fare will be accepted by the
railroads of Iowa, without protest and
without contest in the courts.
The proposition was submitted to
the senate committee on railroads yes
terday evening and the committee adj
journed urtil Friday, when the two
/ cent fare bills will be given further
consideration and the railroads given a
further hearing.
Carroll Wright. Iowa attorney for
the Rock Island proposed the compro-
mise measure at the close of an after
noon Of speeches by the railroad men.
He said:
Il desire to make this proposition
on behalf of the railroads in Iowa, that
you fix the rate at two and one-half
cents mile and provide for 500 mile
mileage book at a fat two cents"
Speed for Stock Trains.
The house today passed the substi-
tute for the Doran bill fixing a mini
mum speed for trains carrying live
stock at twelve miles an hour for
trains on branch lines and eighteen
miles an hour on trunk lines and in
large trains. An effort was made to
defeat the bill but without avail. Only
five voted against it. Debate was spir-
tied for time Doran claimed that it
required nothing that the railroads did
not do voluntarily prior to 1903 and
disputed the printed arguments of j.
G. Davis, attorney for the Northwest
ern, placed on the desks of the mem
bers this morning, that it was impos-
sible to maintain such a speed by
reading from the time card of the
Northwestern, showing that trains dc
move as fast as twenty-one miles an
hour.
