There is still considerable guessing down
at army headquarters as to who will sue
coed Brigadier Genera Charles Morton in
command of the Department Of the Mis-

later came the announcement that Brlga-
der General Frederick A. Smith of Fort
Russell, Wyo.. was slated for the APP
pointment.
II now begins to appear hat Major Gen
eral w. H. Carter will be given the COM
mand. General Carter was assigned to the
command Of the department to succeed the
late Brigadier General T. f. Whit and did
exercise the for several weeks,
being succeeded by General Morton, and
General Carter, then a brigadier, being as
signed to the Philippines. He has already
filled his tour OF duty in the Philippines
and, having reached the rank of a major
general, will consequently be assigned to

Kew to Our Position.

T w. Cumberland, Peru, Ind, says
in a letter to the editor of The National
Tribune: The key to our position is as
stated by you in your letter concerning
the members of the Grand Army of
the Republic We should come closer
together as we reach our last bivouac.
1t is time the boys in blue should come
into the Grand Army of the Republic,
and wear the little bronze button which
means so much, and stand shoulder to
shoulder, as they did in the conflict for
right and liberty"
Comrade Cumberland is absolutely
right 1t is humiliating to think that
there are survivors among those who
wore the blue in the war of the rebel
lion who do not think enough of their
comrades to join them in their Posts
and to join their campfres and De-
partment and National Encampments.
If the comrades have no thought for
themselves, they ought to remember
what a priceless heritage this will be to
their children and their children's chill
dren even to the third and fourth gen.
Grafton, to be able to state that their
father, grandfather or great-grandfath-
er served in the war of the rebellion
fighting for the Flag and for the Union.
1t is not only this that should inspire
comrades to unite in their Posts, how
ever. AS the ranks grow thinner the
veterans should close up and stand up
and work together for their interests.
The hurrying world is forgetting just
little what it owes to the men who
fought and imperiled their lives for the
Union. ] say the world advisedly, be-
cause these veterans who fought so
heroically for the preservation of the
Union have. thru their heroic efforts,
set a wonderful example for the world
powers, and the Nations influence has
reached out and out until 1t has been
felt by every other Government In the
world. 1t costs but little to be a men,
Der of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, and II is worth all ii costs for US to
be laid under the low green tents, whose
portals never outward swing in the
bivouac of the Grand Army of the Re-
public. and to be wrapped in the Flag
for which we fought and bled. This. if
nothing else in the world, should induce
every veteran who served IN the war of
the rebellion TO join the Grand Army
Of the epublic.-Editor National Trib-
une.
