FANCY STREET LIGHTING
IS BATTLING PROBLEM
Municipality Seeking to Establish
Square Deal in the Light
ing of Streets

Third street has come forward and
asked for ornamental lights from Hill
and at the meeting of the streets and
boulevards committee yesterday the
request was referred to the board OF
public works.
Councilman Andrews is anxious for
the streets and boulevards committee
to adopt a policy to be followed by
the city in the future in regard to or
namental lighting. At present there is
a "gentlemens agreement" with a
former council that Main, Spring,
broadway and Hill street lights are to
be paid for by the city and property
owners on alternate years, but the
cross streets not only pay for their
electroliers and lights without aid from
the city, but dig up in taxes to help
pay the city's share of the fancy
lights on the four principal Streets.
Andrews believes that some policy
whereby the city would agree to pay
one-fourth of the lighting bill for all
the streets all the time, would be some
where in the nature of square deal
and for that reason it appeals to him
strongly.
AS soon as the utilities rate ques-
tion is settled the streets and boule-
wards committee expects to get at this
matter and determine some policy to
follow in the future.
Meanwhile Pico. Seventh, Sixth and
Third street want to know If the city
intends to help them pay their light
ing bills.

ENTERTAINING THE NATIONAL

The memory of the splendid enter
tainment of the National Encampment
by Atlantic City and the State of New
Jersey seems to become stronger in the
minds of our comrades the farther away
they get from the event. We are in
constant receipt of letters from all over
the country expressing commendation
Of the way that Atlantic City entertain
ed the comrades, the fair dealing that
they received on all sides and from
everybody, the comfortable quarters
they secured in the hotels, the reason
able prices they were charged, and the
unusual attractiveness of the meeting
place. Merely as matter of business
Atlantic City did great stroke in en-
tertaining the National Encampmeut,
because the veterans and their wives
the country. They all want to come
back TO Atlantic City. A great portion
of this satisfaction is due to the ex-
cellent arrangements of Executive Di-.
rector Col. Frank NJ. Sterrett, Secre-
tary-Director George S. Lenhart, Albert
T. Bell, Chairman Hotel Committee;
Past Commander Enos F. Hahn. Chair
man Campfire Committee. All the
committees, in fact. did well. and to
give them proper praise would be to
mention every one of them. Past Com
nander-in-Chief Henry Fl. Nevius was
very active and efficient from the time
that the invitation was first extended
to the National Encampment. He had
not only at heart the interests of his
comrades, but the credit to his State,
and his strong, practical common sense
in making the arrangements was in
valuable.

WHOLESOME ADVICE.

Jasper Packard Post, Soldiers Home,
Lafayette, Ind. has passed strong res
olutions against those who. in the Ma
tional Encampment, denounced the
dollar-a-day bill and other pension
measures. 1t blames the delegates who
were absent from their places and not
representing the Grand Army of the
Republic, but the resolutions conclude:
Many comrades, in their indignation,
declare they have done with the Grand
Army. Jasper Packard Post calls upon
every comrade to rally upon the little
bronze button; to stand fast to the
principles it represents and to each
other. In few short years this sacred
emblem will be seen no more. Now
is the time, more than ever, for Its
Wearer to show a firm front. Let the
rank and file be true to the sacred
bond cemented by four years of bloody
warfare by which they placed their
country upon a pinnacle of glory and
made the Star Spangled Banner revered
in every land"

DEATH OF BYRON ANDREWS.

One of those who contributed much
une to its present position in the front
ranks OF the newspapers of the coun-
try was Byron Andrews, who passed
away at Evansville, Wis, last week.
Mr.. Andrews was born in Wisconsin,
and after graduating from college en-
tered the newspaper business, and was
for many years connected with the
Chicago Inter-Ocean. As a/representa-
tive of that paper he accompanied Gen.
Grant on his tour thru Mexico and the
highly important missions for that pa
per. Later he became its Washington
correspondent and made much repu-
tation in that capacity as alert, able and
judicious. In 1893 he left the Inter-
Ocean to enter the business department
years was it's Advertising Manager in
New York. Upon the death of Capt.
George +. Lemon, Mr.. Andrews united
with John McElroy and r. w. Shoppell
to purchase The National Tribune, the
style of the firm being McElroy, Shop
pell and Andrews. After some years
OF profitable association with the pa
per he retired from it, leaving McElroy
and Shoppell its owners. Since that
time he has been managing his farm
in North Dakota, travelling abroad, and
contributing TO magazines and current

PRESENTATION TO COMRADE
WALKER.

One Of the most pleasing incidents
of the National Encampment at At
lantic City was the presentation by the
EXPrisoners of War Association of a
handsome gold badge to Past National
Commander James D. Walker. of Pitts
burg. The presentation was made at
the meeting of the National Ex-Prison-
ers of War Association on the steel
pier, with a large attendance. Gen.
Harry White, the National Commander,
presided and made an exceedingly
happy speech in opening the meeting.
The presentation was made by Com
rade John McElroy, who briefly recited
Comrade Walkers many years of faith
full service to the Association, his sac
rifice of his own personal interests to
building up the Association and main
tanning its interests, and his untiring
work to secure the passage of the pris-
oners of war bill and proper recogni-
tion by Congress and the country Of
the extraordinary service rendered by
the prisoners of war. COmrade Walker
replied in a fitting speech. and there
were other excellent addresses in the

GRIEVANCE AGAINST A JUDGE.

More than 80 years ago a building was
erected at Sidney, Ohio. as a memorial
to the 312 Shelby County men who had
died during the war Neal Post at
Sidney had quarters in this building
and enjoyed undsputed possession Of
them for many years. until a feeling
developed among the citizens who were
not friendly to the veterans, and pro-
ceedings began to oust them and take
the whole building for municipal pur-
poses. The comrades of Sidney fought
this bitterly for years, resisting every
step and securing decisions in their fa-
vor The District Court confirmed the
veterans in possession, but the case was
appealed to the Circuit Court, where
Judge Summers presided, and it is
claimed that he treated the veterans
with great unfairness, refusing to hear
their witnesses or consider evidence in
their favor. He rendered a decision
ousting the veterans from the building,
which broke many of their hearts and
undoubtedly hastened several deaths.
The veterans next appealed to the Ohio
Legislature. and by a unanimous vote
in both branches received & bill au-
thorizing the Trustees to furnish a room
for Neal Post Again there was an ap-
peal to Judge Summers, who decided
against the veterans. Neal Post. Of
Sidney, has sent a circular to all the
other Posts in Ohio, in which Judge
Summers's prejudice and unfairness are
shown, and it seems likely that this will
prevent his receiving the vote of any
veteran or friend of veteran and re-
suit in his defeat, as should be the
case.

Gen. Henry Edwin Tremain, who
served with distinction on the staff of
Gen. Sickles and in the cavalry until
the end of the war, has written a very
interesting article in the Editorial Re-
view for November in reply to 'The
New Nationalism' in former issue.
Gen. Tremain takes up the Dred Scott
decision and shows that the criticism
on that act of the Supreme Court is
entirely different from criticism of the
Supreme Court of to-day. He properly
says that the record of the Dred Scott
case shows that il was a prepared
case, intended for political effect, and
that the obiter dictum of Chief Justice
Tawney was useful in arousing the
moral sense of the country, and was
not essential to the decision of the case.
Every lawyer knew this. Lincoln's stric-
lures on this obiter dictum were some
thing entirely different from recent
structures upon the Supreme Court and
it's decisions.
