PICKET SHOTS
From Alert Comrades Along the Whole
Line.
Highly Esteems Grant.

]. C. Rowland, Rice Lake, Wis, is
very indignant at the things called rs rs
tory which are Used to injure the char
acter of Gen. Grant. He says that Grant
once gave him sharp lecture on the
folly of flying into a passion and saying
things. Gen. Grant said that he never
allowed himself to storm and swear
and he had about as much to try his
patience as Comrade Rowland had
Comrade Rowland reported to Grants
headquarters for a considerable time,
and formed a high opinion of him. He
was not only great General, but the
kindest and best of men, and it is ex-
ceedingly irritating to see such stuff as
this published about him. 1t may be
that Grant drank at certain times, but
he never was seen under the influence
of liquor. At the time that Comrade
Rowland knew Grant best he was
watching the rebels between Aiken's
Landing and Powhattan Landing, to see
if they proposed to make an attack on
City Point, and this brought him to
Grants headquarters~ very frequently,
and into friendly acquaintance with both
him and Porter, the Indian who was on
his staff.
The First Volunteers.
Louis Weiland, 9th and 9th ILL., and
18th Ind. Cav, San Diego, Cal, feels 1t
his duty to call attention to a neglected
fact. This is that the first volunteers
were 200 noble men from Quincy, Ill.,
commanded by Capts. Prentice and
Shiliy. They were the first to respond
to the call of our noble President Lin
coin, leaving Quincy April 16, 1861, and
going to Cairo, ILL.,, where they stopped
all steamboats, going south. They built
strong fort there, and endured great
suffering. Undoubtedly they secured
that important point for the Union. He
himself, while on Post No. 1, captured
a spy at II o'clock at night The spy
was so important that he was sent to
Washington, but not word of it is
in history. Comrade Weiland
served till the end of the war, and has
been an invalid ever since. Uncle Sam
owes him 81 years Of back pension, but
he hopes he will soon go to his grave.
He is ready now, since he has seen our
country become SO great, powerful and
rich.
The Historian Away OF.
Levi S. Miles, Dexter, Mich, claims
that the historian was away off in his
account of the first days battle at Get

power of the community to tuberculo-
sis and other diseases

high diplomatic qualities necessary to

executive ability there is no question.

temporarily laid down and resumed
office as civil governor till December
%. 1903, when he sailed for the United
States to become secretary of war,
which important Office he still holds.
With Secretary Taft's able work since
his return home the American nation
and the world are familiar. His visit to
Panama in November and December,
1904; his tour of inspection of the Phil
ippine Islands in the summer of 1906,
with a party of senators and represent
atives; his crisis mission to Cuba last

on editors, and here is the result: II

does for he haint got nothing to say
about them and editors in the bible. I

bushes until after the food; and then
wrote the thing up, and has been here
ever since. 1 don't think he ever dies,
