calling upon the president to tell
how many of such former sailors and
soldiers in the classified service had
been dismissed, denoted or had their
salaries reduced, and cited the follow
ing federal statute
I'm the event of reduction being
made in the forces of any of the ex-
ecutive departments, no honOrably
discharged soldier or sailor whose
record in said department is rated
good shall be discharged or dropped
or reduced in rank or salary"
Commenting ON this, Senator Cara

With cyclones roaming DER the land,
And mixing atmosphere with sand.

We never feel the thrill Of fear
OF clashing elements too near
Down on this peaceful shore.
When our papers daily We peruse.

Which once in prominence were

And now they tell of schools and

OF fields of corn and loads
OF spuds that bring in much long
