queen was obliged to keep up a con-
slant and powerful fleet, to watch the

pounds sterling year. for fifteen
years. which was not half her expend-

Washington.-That more than if-
teen million United States citizens
will record their votes for president
this year Is evident from the Official
statistics Of presidential votes pub
lished in the Statistical Abstract of
the United States. issued by the Blu
reau of Statistics Of the Department
Of Commerce and Labor. No govern
mont oficial record Of tho votes cast
for president existed prior to 1888,
but an act passed by Congress- on
Feb. 8. 1887. made 1t the duty Of the
executive Of each state to report to
the secretary Of state the names of
electors and the number Of votes CIV
en- or cast for each person voted on.
These reports, made to the secrs,
tary Of state in 1888 and in each SUBJ
sequent presidential election, form
the basis of the ofnciAl record Of pres
idential elections in the United States.
This record suggests that the total
number Of votes cast in the presiden-
tial election this year will for the first
time exceed 100000. The total
number in 1908 was 14.ss7.ooo; in
1900. 1s.ssb.o 900; in 1899. 100000; in

entitled to the splendid distinction Of
being the senior volunteer regiment of

The speaker feelingly referred to
the death of Clara Barton and told Of
her remarkable services as q nurse
upon the battle fields, not only Of the
War of the Rebellion, but also Of the
Franco-Prussian and Spanish Amer
lean Wars. He said that although

Non Observance Of Memorial Day.
Mr.. Lawler referred to the fact that
the original purpose Of the day has
largely been forgotten and that there
is q widespread complaint that too
much of the day is given up to sports
and. pleasure. He said that II he had
the power he would not pass law
making sports and similar diversions
illegal, but he would be in favor OF
a law making 1t gross misdemeanor
for any Memorial Day orator to de-
part from the proper theme of the
day. the Heroism and Sacrifice Of the
Union Soldier, or use the Memorial
Day platform as q vehicle for I'M
loading his personal opinions upon
political questions.
Mr.. Lawler closed his address by a
tribute to the private soldier Of the
Union Armies. saying that although
day would come when the last vet
eran of the Grand Army of the Re-
public would be carried to his last
resting place the memory Of the hero
ism and sacrifice which he typified
would live forever in the heart Of a
grateful people.
How many ages hence shall this our
lofty scene be acted over,
In states unborn. and accents yet I'M
knoWn!
So oft as that shall be,
So often shall the knot of us be called
The men that gave our country lib.
erty."
