TWO lrOHt ranks along the alSlt
In the big tent along which the
President was to pass to hold
back the crowd and not let them
break through the ropes. 1t
happened that the front rank
was composed of Union men and
the second of Confederates. One
OF the latter leaned forward and
said, You fellows hold on and
We'll stand to your backs".
Quick as a wink one of the boys
in blue turned round and, with
a twinkle in his eye. said, "All
right, for we've had you fellows
at our backs many a time be-
fore"
1t was patriotic crowd.
Everyone seemed inclined to
treat the matter of who was
right and who was wrong as a
mooted question, and not capable
of a direct answer, it being con-
sidered that each had enough of
academic right on his side to
brand him forever as patriot;
and they all met as citizens of a
common country and that country
the greatest the world ever saw.
twas the unanimous opinion that
the combined nations of the
world could not lick" country
such as ours, with citizens such
as they and the sons they had
begotten.
1t was perhaps the most uni
que gathering of men in all
history. Never before did such
hosts of the survivors of great
conflict meet in such perfect
amity and unity of thought and
purpose. Among no other people
on earth could such thing have
been possible. The hatred and
blood lust of war, as we'll as the
political animosities and bitter
nesss that followed after, were
laid aside and all met on the
broad ground of common citizen
ship of a common country.
Everywhere could be heardUnion
veterans advancing and assert
ing the proposition that if we
are all to be equal citizens of a
common country, then all should
be treated alike, and it is not fair
for Confederate soldiers to be
required to contribute to PEN
sion fund for their old adver-
saries without being themselves
equally entitled to pensions.
Shade of the "bloody shirt, Z" in
to what "far country" hast thou
gone!
1t was a crowd of infinite tact
and good manners. 1t was no
easy thing for the old Rebs to
meet their old foes on the battle
field of Gettysburg, where their
fortunes began to wane. Deep
sorrows and bitter memories are
called up by the very mention of
the name, but they were not un-
pleasantly reminded of these
things by their old foes. Oftener
they said, "You certainly had us
badly whipped the first day, and
it was all we could do to hold on
to our position on the third"
Again, it was not easy for the
boys in gray to freely express
their friendly feelings without
laying themselves open to the
accusation of trucking and
surrendering their former con-
victions, but if any such con-
struction was ever placed upon
their actions, it has never been
reported.
1t was a tremendously signifi-
cant event, perhaps the most
significant in the history of the
nation, in that it was voluntary
expression of such a unity of
thought and patriotism as this
country has never before seen.

UNIQUE METHOD OF KEEPING BEL.
CLANS tUT OF MISCHIEF WHILE
FIGHTING FOR VOTING EQUALITY

Brussels. Belgium, April 17.-The
Belgium workers strike continues to
extend slowly in every part of the
country. Small numbers of men have
returned to their work, but these de,
fections are unimportant lis compar-
ed with the figures of the .rosli re-
cruits who joined the movement. The
men as rule appear to be settling
down to long test of endurance and
are determined to achive victory in
the cause for which they are fighting,
that of equality in voting.
The socialist organization has open
ed dining halls in convenient locations
for the provision of free meals to the
needy workers.
The strikers and their families gen
orally are employing their time III
working their gardens or making tours
to neighboring towns, while the strike
leaders are organizing concerts, mov-
ing picture shows and magic lantern
lectures to amuse and instruct the
strikers and to keep them out of mis-
chief.
A few arrests of strikers have been
made for interfering with a workman.
The photo engravers of Brussels
have voted to join the strike tomor-
row.

DENOUNCED
REPUBLICAN LEADERS ARE ANGRY
At DEMOCRATS FOR CLOSING
DOORS; MANY PROTESTS AGAINST
BILL.

Washington, D. c., April 17.-The
action of Democrats of the house il
discussing the tariff bill behind closed
doors was denounced by Republican
leaders of the senate today as unfair
ness interests that may be forfeited
A demand for hearings on the bill
was made by Senators Townsend, Pen
rose, Warren, Gallinger and others,
who declared business and labor in
terests were sending thousands of
protests against the bill and de-
manding an opportunity to be heard
as soon as the measure reached the
senate.
Democratic senators, including SEN
ators Williams and Stone, insisted
full hearings had been held in Janu-
airy by the house committee on ways
and means and that the senate com
mittee would not delay tariff reform
by further hearings
The Republican senator's declared
that no one knew the extent of the re-
ductions that were to, be made when
the January hearings was held
Senators Gallinger and Penrose
said that some of the cuts in the
tariff would wipe industries out of eX.
istence and that the people interested
had not been given an opportunity to

ductions upon their business.
mo one knew that the bill was to
be until it came out of the ways and

rose, land even now the Democrats
are legislating on the bill in secret
caucus"
Washington, D. c., April 1.-THE
Democratic house caucus resumed
consideration of the tariff here today

ton of the measure and it's presenta.

l. w. WIS ARE FED WHEN
GOOD; STARVED WHEN BAD

Denver, Colo, April 17.-Sixty In
dustrial Workers of the World who
yesterday began hunger strike in
the city Jail here, refused to eat
breakfast this morning. When a
trusty was sent to their cells with a
supply of bread and water-the menu
furnished by the city, to the hundred
or more unlimited guests from the
Pacific coast-the militant sixty stead
fastly refused to touch the fare. They
announce that they will refuse all
food until the city furnishes a better
variety, or until they become SO weak
from exhaustion that they will have
to be removed to hospital.
Talk of compromise between the
city and the Industrial Workers was
rife today. 1t was said that the Den
yer branch of the organization would
agree to observe the rules regarding
street speaking laid down by the fire
and police board, and that the hun
dred visitors would then be released
on the promise that they would leave
the city at once.
Denver, Colo, April 1.-THE com.
promise plans. however, failed, and
the Industrial Workers are still in
Jail.
The hunger strike came to an end at
noon today, when the sixty militants

decided that Jail fare was better than
starvation. There was no need to re.
sort to forcible feeding; the strikers
were ready to eat luncheon ravenous-
ly, and asked for more.
Chief of Police Felix O'Neill today
explained the system upon which he
is feeding the Industrial Workers.
When they obey the rules of the
JAIL" he said, they get the regular
Jail fare. When they persist in break
ing the rules by shouting and using
improper language, they are given
well, lighter diet"
Does that mean bread and water?"
he was asked.
YES" replied the chief. However,
when they obey the rules they get the
regular Jail menu. They haven't obey.
ed the rules yet," he added.
The possibility of federal interven.
tion into the International Workers
developed today when Chief ONeill
arrested Dave Inger, secretary of the
local branch of the organization on u
charge of bringing persons from one
state to another with the intention of
disturbing the peace. The United
States district attorney began an in.
vestigation to determine whether or
not this constitutes an offense punish
able under the federal statutes.
