alton, located in New York and the
Trans Continental Lines, fixed the
rate at two cents per mile which Is,
| believe. a higher rate than the
Grand Army has paid in some years.
Included in the associations making
The charge of two cents per mile,
was the association whose roads op-
crate in Missouri and Kansas and
perhaps other states, which made a
rate for the Confederate Veterans
Reunion of one cent per mile. The
railroads from New York to Wash
ington made no reduction whatever in
rates, but charged the full regular
fare to Washington, the gateway to
the territory of the Southern Pas
senger Association, which rate is in
excess of the prices regularly charged
for excursion tickets good for ten
days and largely in excess of mile
age book rates good for at least
one year"
Mr. Beers urged that the pension
committee present a bill to congress
granting a pension of $75 a month
to veterans who are blind He also
recommended that an effort be made
to have repealed the law providing
that widows Of veterans who married
after June L, 1890, should not be
entitled to pensions.
The most of us are cOnyersant
with the causes that led to the pass
age of that law" he said. at was a
and a proper law then, but !
since that time many honorable |
kindly and affectionate women have |
veterans from the purest of |
motives and ministered to them in |
their last hours. 1t seems an injus
tice that such noble women should
be made to suffer with the irrespon-
sible class that the law was design
ed to reach. Surely a law can be
framed that will separate the wheat
from the chaff."

DELIVERS ANNUAL
ADDRESS TO c. A. R.
COMMANDER IN .CHlEF ALFRED
B. BEERS DELIVERS ADDRESS
AT CHATTANOOGA TODAY.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 1S-More
than 11000 Union Veterans of the
Civil War died during the twelve
months ending December 81, last, and
more than 100000 such veterans are
still on the rolls of the Grand Army
of the Republic, according to Alfred
b. Beers, commander in chief of the
organization, who delivered his an
nual address at the reunion here to-
day.
The year started with a member
ship of 1886, Mr.. Beers said, and
14,779 were added to the rolls by
muster, transfer and reinstatement.
The losses were as follows: By death
II, ,33S; by honorable discharge 435;
by transfer, 1864; by suspension, g.
97G: by dishonorable discharge, 63;
by delinquent reports, 4,2S3, and by
surrender of charter, 1899, making a
total loss, partially offset by gains,
of 25,S9S. The rate OF mortality,
based on the membership, was 6.2S
per cent.
Another topic discussed at some
length by Mr.. Beers, was the alleged
discrimination in railroad rates to
Chattanooga between the Grand Army
and the Confederate Veterans, who
held their reunion here in May. ut
would appear" he said. that the
services of the veterans of the Union
army and the consideration due them
are held lightly in the estimation of
the railroad authorities" The rail-
roads of the south, however, gave
the same rate to both camps of vet
Grams, Mr.. Beers added, the alleged
discrimination being in the north and
against the Union veterans. In this
connection, he said:
THE Southern Passenger Associa- |
ton. composed of railroads east OF 1
the Ohio river gave the same rate !
TO the Union veterans that they had |
given to the Confederate veterans in !
May of this year, namely, one cent

BRYAN AND THE FLAG

The flag e the national emblem
and is Obedient TO the national will.
u was made for the people, not the
people for the flag. When the Amer
lean people want the flag raised, they
raise H. when they want it hauled
down they haul il down. The flag
was raised upon Canadian soil during
the war Of 1912. and it was hauled
down when peace was restored. The
flag was planted upon Chapultepec
during the war with Mexico, and it
was hauled down when the war was
over The morning papers announce
that General Lee ordered the flag
hauled down in Cuba yesterday, be-
cause IL was raised too soon. The
flag wilh be raised in Cuba again on
January lst. but the president de-
clares that it will be hauled down as
soon as a stable government is es-
tablished Who will deny to our peo-
pie the right to haul down the flag in
the Philippines. if they SO desire,
when stable government is estab-
nshed there?
our flag stands for an indissoluble
union OF understandable states. Every
state is represented by star, and
every territory sees in the constitu-
tion a star of hope that will some day
take It's place in the constellation.
What is there in the flag to awaken
the zeal or reflect the aspirations of
vassal colonies which are too good to
be cast away, but not good enough to
be admitted to the sisterhood of
states?
Shall We keep the Philippines and
amend our flag? Shall we add a new
star-the blood-star Mars-to indicate
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1913-03-21

that we have entered upon career
of conquest? Or shall We borrow the
yellow and paint Saturn and his rings,
to suggest a carpet-bag government,
with it's scheme of spoliation? Or
shall we adorn our flag with milky
way composed of a multitude OF MI
nor stars representing remote and in
significant dependencies?
No; a thousand times better that
we haul down the stars and stripes,
and substitute the flag of an indie
pendent republic than surrender the
doctrines that give glory to "Old
Glory"
1t was the flag of our fathers in the
| years that are gone; it is the flag OF
our nation in the years that are to
come It's stripes of red tell of the
] blood that was shed to purchase lib
erty; it's stripes of white proclaim the
pure and heaven-born purpose Of a
government which derives it's just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned The mission of that flag is
to foat-not over a conglomeration
OF commemorative and colonies-but
over "the land of the free and the
home of the brave" and to that mis-
sion it must remain forever true-for
ever true.-Extract from speech OF
w. J. Bryan, delivered at Lincoln
