a RoIuan slave, took refuge from his
brutal master in a cave. There lion

Memorial Day

The onward sweep of time again brings us
to that solemn day on which we recall the men,
Dry of the soldier dead of '61-'65 and pay trib-
ute to the thinning ranks of the Boys in Blue
Memorial Day.
Year by year this day becomes more sacred
in the national consciousness and more hallowed
in the associations that cling to it.
If once the veterans of that sanguinary war
marched in large numbers and with steady tread
in countless cities and hamlets, today it is only
a remnant of that mighty host which assemblies
in thousands of places to pay tribute to its
departed comrades.
Time has not overlooked that great army or
treated tenderly it's members. Spared by shot
and shell in the $685. they are annually joining
the Invisible Grand Army in increasingly large
numbers. Only few years more and all that
will be left of the Grand Army of the Republic
will be memory.
But what a memory! How hallowed its
name, how sacred its history! How tenderly it's
glorious achievements for the cause Of human
rights will be preserved in the hearts of a thank
full republic! And how gladly the children of a
later generation will recount its march to vic
tory!
With what deep measure of patriotic pride
cannot Wayne county look back upon its part in
that great struggle! From this community came

above all war governors of the republic Oliver
p Morton. From this county came hundreds
of boys in answer to Abraham Lincoln's call to
arms. Some made the supreme sacrifice. Some
came back to prove in civilian life their abiding
love for the republic. Many Of the veterans of
that war are no longer with us. To them we
pay the merited homage. To the comrades who
are still with us we pay tribute, devotion and
love.
And as the thinning ranks of the Civil War
veterans pass by, who of us does not think of
those younger crusaders for the cause of right
eousness and democracy who are entombed in
the white crossed lanes of the American
cemeteries in Romagne, Beleau and Suresnes
More than 1877, 900 soldiers, sailors and marines
died as result of Americas participation in the
struggle between democracy and autocracy.
1t is the first Memorial Day since our boys
returned home. Last May thousands of our
boys were still in France, where $4,000 of their
comrades sleeping on fields of honor. On
this Memorial Day the thoughts of countless
veterans of that war will wing their way across
the sea to the white-crossed acres of France, and
from thousands of homes will rise the prayers of
mothers like sacrificia incense to the Great
White Throne.
No Memorial Day exercise will be complete
without its tribute to the American boys-sons
and grandsons of the Boys in Blue-who died
overseas, in the cantonments at home, or later,
as result of wounds and exposure incurred in
the service of the republic.
1t is fit and proper that the nation once a
year at least turn from it's accustomed tasks to
pay reverential tribute to its fighters No war
in which America participated has been debased
by the low purpose of conquest or territorial

4 John Tyler stepped into the
~ White House, its door closed
against the party which had
elected him only five months before.
Death had turned out the Wings after
30 days of power and caused a politi-
cal revolution.
In vain the Harrison Cabinet, which
was largely under the influence of
Clay, proposed that Tyler should de-
scribe himself only as Vice President
and acting President. He rightly in
sisted that he was full President with
out qualification.
Clay looked upon this accidental
President as only regent for the
Harrison Administration and for the
Wing party. Early in the extra session
of Congress, that impression of the
Senator from Kentucky was sharply
corrected by Presidential veto of one
Of his own bills-a banking bill.
The Wings were wild with rage; the
Democrats filed with glee. The Demo-
cratic senators fastened in a body to
the White House, where they were
ratting Tyler on the back while a
Wing mob outside in the yard was
making vociferous, but futile pro-
test. When the next veto came in
Clay himself called the Cabinet to-
gether and the members. with one ex-
ception, agreed to resign.
The exception was none other than
that of the Secretary of State, Daniel
Webster. Where am 1 to go?" the
god-like Daniel Numbered in his be-
Wilderment. Some told him to go to
one place, some to another. He held
on for two years, until he had con-
cluded the negotiation of the Ashbur-
! ton Treaty, which fixed the disputed
boundary between Maine and Canada,
ard then he resigned.

mentor and idol. John c. Calhoun, and

Cabinet was now out and out Demo
cratic and of the pro-slavery brand.
Although the President only stood
true to the principles that he was well
known to entertain at the time of his
nomination and election, great was the
outcry Nothing like it has assailed

a kissing and byword in the mouth

Liberty Voters To Decide
On School Consolidation

LIBERTY, Ind, May 2S.-The vot-
ers of Liberty and of Center township
will be given an opportunity on June
% to show their inclinations regard
ing the consolidation of Liberty and
Center township high schools, when
special school election will be held.
The plan, which has been suggested
as the possible remedy for the pres
ent unsettled condition of the Liberty
high school, is to consolidate the two
high schools. A modern building is
proposed on a tract of land just at the
corporation limits. This would make
Liberty high school a non-commis-
stoned institution.
At this time the outcome of the
election is very doubtful, as the senti-
ment seems to be evenly divided.
