youngest cavalryman of the civil war,
said yesterday that he did not know
that his name was to be presented to
the state convention of the G. A R. at
Charlottesville next year, until after he
had left Kokomo, where largely
through his efforts, Rev F. NJ Elliott
was elected TO the Office OF state chap
lain OF that organization.
Some Of his friends talked the mat
ter over and the first thing he knew
about his candidacy was when he saw
his picture in an indianapolis paper. Mr.
Dyer has a great many friends all
over the state which were made when
he was candidate for the office of
state treasurer and these rallied at once
to his support.
Mr.. Dyer was asked If he would ac-
cept the honor If It was conferred
upon him. He said that while he was
not seeking the Office and would, for
the present at least, make no effort to
further his candidacy, yet when the
proper time comes, along about the
time Of the holding of the next state
encampment. If it seems advisable to
enter the race, he may do so.

Decoration Day

Honor the dead, the true and brave,
Who gave their lives for freedoms sake
With sweetest flowers bedecked each grave
No call can now their slumbers wake
And we, who still are best with life,
Who shared their toll through many DAYS
And stood beside them in the strife,
VIII eer their daring courage praise.
And we, who lived in peace away
From battle clouds and carnage dread,
Will with the deepest reverence pay
All honor to the noble dead.
Twas not for power or self or ease,
Nor for monarch's pride and gain.
Nor for party's whim to please,
These soldiers suffered death and pain,
But for the highest. noblest cause,
The dearest to patriotic race
Sweet freedom, justice, equal laws
And in the world an honored place.
They severed all the dearest ties
That bind man to the loved at home
To march beneath far distant skies,
All fearless of what woes might come.
There is no spot that can claim
More sacred than a patriots mound,
While stories of his well earned fame
In memory's grateful ear resound.
Raise up the flag they loved well;
Let music sound which stirred their heart
And bugle notes through valley swell
Ere from their resting place we part.
But all our praise, rites and tears
Do fail to pay the debt owe,
And monuments that honor rears
Not half their valued service show.
AS long as spring renews her bloom.
AS long as patriots song may live,
As long as man loves country home,
All honor to these heroes give.
Perhaps their spirits from on high
Observe the tribute that we pay
And with a clear, celestial eye
Behold our solemn rites today.
Thank God, who blessed our holy cause;
Thank him who gave to US these men,
And for our country's freedom laws
Thank God with loving hearts. Amen!
&C. L. Lochman.

In connection with the fact that AL

gate to the democratic national con-
vention in Denver, it is interesting to
note that since the day when the peo-
PIE took away from congress the pow
er to nominate presidential and vice
presidential candidates, substituting the
popular convention for the congress
caucus, there has never been a case
when a defeated candidate for the
presidency ever sat as a delegate IN
national convention. 1t is possible that
some one named as a candidate in one
OF the side issue conventions, as Cen
era1 Weaver was by the greenbackers,
may afterward have sat as a delegate
in the convention Of one of the two
