announcing themselves. There

sire to enter the races for the re-

Quite large crowd gathered in
Meade Decoration Day and went to
the cemetery where they decorated
the graves of the dead soldiers and
also citizens and friends remember
ed their relatives and friends. The
crowd gathered at the opera house
at 2 O'Clock whore they listened to a
literary program consisting of songs
and Rotations by the children.
Rev. Millsap delivered the principal
address and it was a quite, logical
discourse thoroughly in keeping
with the spirit of the day.
Capt. Osgood handed US an &C
count of the Decoration day pro-
gram which we refused to publish
and we presume that the same will
appear in the Globe this week. In
this Cap. tries to take his spite out
on the people of Meade because
quite a number of the old boys re-
fused to help out on Decoration day
because he was running things.
Now we do not wish to assist him TO
lambast anyone even in this round
about way and the same article
boosts parties whom the editor of
this paper does not care particular
ly to boost. We, do not care a
particle about Cap or how many
Decoration programs he runs but
we will not be cats paw to gig
any one or the people of Meade
even if only one from Meade would
help him out. This day is one
when all prejudices and appeals to
passion should be laid aside and
observe the day as it is intended
that it shall be observed. We may
have more to say on this subject
later.
