over the Presidents face; and nearly every

At the tent, another lane, of the same
bright Pennsylvania constabulary, was
made, so that the President could walk from
his Private Car, to the tent, without coming
in touch with the mOb-the mob being the
old soldiers whose deeds had made the 0cc0-
sion of the Reunion.
The President was being eagerly waited
for, in the tent. by a crowd of 10000 people,
all warmed up by the events of the days that
had already passed on that sacred ground.
This eager, warmed-up crowd welcomed
the President with a glad shout. Just one.

went off; and the President started his

The barometer tumbled, and you could hear
the ice form on the situation.
The President read his speech from sheet
of foolscap paper. It was a very correct
speech. 1t would suit almost any audience,
at almost any place. and almost any time. In

it would fit; on New Years Day, it would

There was much silence in the tent, while
the President perused his speech.
After he had finished reading what he had
written. the President turned round, on his
lower mechanism, and shook hands glacaly,
with some of the brilliant bipeds who were
there, on the stage, as members of the stats
of various Governors.
Having done this, the President left the
tent, marched back through the human lane
of constabulary, to his Private Car, left the
grounds, ordered the engineer of his Special

city, spent three hours at his Club, whereas
he had given 0n1y fOrty-Sin minutes to the

Bland, the hero Of the great free silver fight.
The book contains a large amount Of his
torlcal fact illustrative Of political and
industrial conditions during the last quarter
of the Nineteenth century.
On page 159 there is a reference to Gen.
John S, Marmaduke, the Confederate officer
who became Governor Of Missouri. 1t was
during his administration that the corpora
tons on the Illinois side of the river, filled
the streets Of East St. Louis with Pinker-
tons and with the militia, precipitating the
butchery of civilians, which became known
as the East St. Louis massacre.
The same corporations tried the same
thing In ST. Louis proper, on the Missouri
side Of the river.
But here they met soldier who was not
to be cajoled by corporation Establishments,
nor inundated by corporation threats.
[ quote from can American Commoner,"
page 1850:
Governor >Marmaduke died in December,
1887, but in his short official life he had done
that for which he ought to be remembered
as long as manly independence is admired,
and liberty valued.
Gin the great Southwestern strike on rail-
roads, centering in st. Louis, the speculative
element attempted to refuse to deal with the
men, prefering rather, to suppress the strike
by the use of Pinzertons and the State
militia.
''They had influence enough to force
resolution through the St. Louis Merchants
Exchange demanding that this policy should
be supported by the State administration.
''When they sent delegation to Jefferson
City to intimidate Governor MarmaduEe

"No matter what threats were made, he
refused to allow the crowds in the streets of
St. Louis to be fired on, so long as they
remained orderly. He insisted that the
police, not the militia, were the proper
guardians of the peace until they had
exhausted their resources, and that only
when there was actual and violent resistance
to the authority Of the State, could the
militia justly and openly open fire"
Please bear in mind that Gen. John S.
Marmaduze was not a tin soldier, nor a
member Of the Suicide Brigade; he had had
his baptism of blood in some of the fercest
struggles of the Civil War.
But he had been reared a Jeffersonian
Democrat, and had profound reverence for
Constitutional liberty. He knew, as every
body ought to know, that Constitutional lib

Evidently Gov. Marmaduke understood
what our forefathers meant when they
declared that the civil authority should

Of American life: they had mever come
before, and they qcouzd never come again.
Wasn't it enough to thrill the President?
To make him throb and glow with emotion?
To fill his soul with patriotic fervor, and his
eyes with sympathetic tears?
Wouldn't you have thought that he would
enter into the spirit of the thing, listen to
the old soldiers fight the battle over again,
walk reverently with them to the spots which
they had hallowed with their blood, DOTTED
hat to the monuments which reverent
remembrance has raised to the martyrs who
left their poor, lifeless bodies on the slopes,
OF on the Ridge?
The President has been Georgian and
married Georgia girl--Wouldnt you have
thought that he would ask some old Vet who
followed w II. T. Walker or Ranse Wright
to point out to him the spot where the gal
liant charge Of the 18th Georgia carried them
up those heights on the Second Day?
The President was born in Virginia, and
has been proudly claimed as Son of the Old
Dominion-wouldn't you have thought that
he would ask some Vet who followed Arml-
stead and Pickett to show him where the
great charge of the Virginians started and
where it was stopped-forever?
The President went coldly, appeared
coldly. left coldly.
Barely did they halt him, on his way into
the tent, and get his snapshot picture be-
tween two old soldiers-a pre-arranged
affair which he could not we'll avoid.
Not once did he give the heroes of the Blue
and the Gray to come forward and shake his
hand.
There was no free for-all reception; there
was no breaking bread with the soldiers at
their mess; there was no round of visits to
the surviving officers, the widows of dead

Had Abe Lincoln, or Jeff Davis, been
there, every soldier would have been made to
