TO THE PUS LIC.
The Ladies of the G. A. R. is an in
dependent organization, answerable to
no other order; its membership, being
limited to mothers, wives, sisters-and
daughters of honorably 'discharged boI
diers, sailors and marines of the late
rebellion; an exclusive soldiers' organi
zation. & '
It is not true that the local Circle as
sumed the name of the local Post. They
voted to take the name of that patriot
statesman, Stephen A. Douglas, and
everyone with a modicum of brains, will
concede theirrigbt to do so." What a
spectaclel A church member, a class
leader, commander of a Grand Army
Post who slurs the 'nearest relatives'of
his comrades; worse, the widows and
orphans of dead coairades,whom he obli
gated himself to aid and assist.
Lastly, we want the public to under
stand that we are not auxiliary to the
G. A. K. aud do not desire to be, as Past
Dept. President Mrs Hunter says: "It
would inieedbea'sad'state bt affttira to
ba auxiliary to one's own."

Massachusetts republicans,, in state
convention, uttered a practical formula
tion of the Monroe doctrine in these
words: "We believe that this hemi
sphere is no longer a subject for Europ
ean colonization, or aggressive and
oppressive occupation; that the Monroe
doctrine is a true guide for American
statesmanship, and should be maintained
toward small nations without blustering
toward great nations without cringing,
but always deliberately, temperately,
resoiutely." Small nations without
blustering, great nations without cring
ing. A safe and gentlemanly principle
toward all the world.

probably forever. Now he goes to Wash

gradually come to full sway in his pulpit.
A preacher who combines the instincts
of the actor with the gifts of the preacher

Alarmed by the growing frequency
and boldnpss of train robberies, the
officials of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway have determined to take away
from temptation of the Jesse James
species of highwaymen one of the most
luring prizes carried out over the iron
rails through the west. They have
abandoned and banished the monthly
pay car. From this time henceforth
ibis old-time institution will be a thing
only of memory to" the thousands of
Northwestern employes who have await
ed its coming every thirty days all along
the lines beeween Chicago and Omaha,
Sioux City or St. Paul. Beginning with
the current month the Northwestern
company pays its rolls by checks od
Cnicago banks instead of in currency
and gold as heretofore. This change
marks the passing of the pay car, and is
a staggering blow to the profession ot
train, robbery.
Two men went out to look for work,
one fine September day; one held a cor
ner down, in town, and talked the hours
away. He talked with sages like him
self about the country's woes, and with
a sort of pride he viewed his old and-
ragged clothes. He doubtless thought
that work would come, and beg on
bended knees, that he would go and take
a job at herding bumble bees. For days
and weeks he stood around, and talked
of woes and wrong, and squinted round
to look for work, which did not come
along. When wintery blizzards came
along and froze the beard of man, he
had no woodpile m the shed, no coal oil
in the can; he'd no tobacco in his box, or
money in the bank; the county had to
give him stuff to fill his aching tank.
The other man who hunted work went
hunting with a will; he said: I'll jump
at any job, and try and fill the bill; I'll
quarry rock or chop down trees, like
other toiling gents; if I can't make a V
a day, I'll work for fifty cents. When
winter came ho sat at ease before hia
blazing hearth; he owned a pleasant
home, although he didn't own the earth.

Sensational I'lisae of the Dnrrant Trial la
Looked For.
San Fbancisco, Oct. 3. Ifc is expect
ed that the defense in the Dnrrant case
will take up the matter of handwriting
on the wrapper in which Blanche La
mont's rings were sent to Mrs. Noble as
soon as the witnesses from Cooper Med-
ical college aro disposed of. The exam
ination or line remaining it stuaenis
will probably consume this morning's
session of court, and then the evidence
calculated to cast suspicion upon Dr.
Gibson will most likely bo introduced
by the defense. A subpoena was is
sued yesterday for Dr. Gibson's appear
ance in court today, bat up to a late
hour last night; he had not been served.
He was expected to be on hand when
he is wanted this afternoon. A most
sensational phase of the trial is looked
for when Dr. Gibson faces Durrant's
lawyers in court., .
