that it holds those principles in which

eoiiralulidi' our people that through
the power of these principles they have
inm' the lights of homestead pre-emption
and timber claims iu our public
lands restored to theui.
We favor those laws which give full

Second Y regard trusts, in what
ever organized form, as the leejtinmte
result of our present tariff system, uinl
w-cMeinaiul a repeal of all tariff taxes
that enabhi them to extort from the peo
ple exorbitant prices for tho product

Sixth We protest against the re
pealed enactment of a Jaw vesting the
nppruiitine; power in tlie ejovernor, en
iiblii,',' him to control the local boards of
our leadiii"; cities. While depriving
them of self-government, it constructs a
vast political machine that is at all times
dangerous, and in the hands of a parti
san chief executive, has become a posi

Seventh The nomination of a gover

ami disgraceful use of the patronage at
his command is nn outrago against the
people and should be rebuked at the
polls.
We heartily favor home rule in Ireland
anil we demand it also for Ohio. While
favoring all laws that sacredly protect
the ballot anil the honest, voter, we de
mand the enactment of laws that will
enable our cities to choose their own
servants and control their own affairs.

IxiiiAXAroLis, Ind., August 27. A
surprising decision of tho civil service
commission, applying directly to the In
dianapolis postoflice and affecting gen
erally a large class of applicants for fed
eral positions, is causing bad feeling
hero among ex-soldiers who were on the
list of persons eligible to appointment
to the mail service, liie local civu ser
vice board and Postmaster Wallace be
ing unable to agree upon the meaning
of the rules relating to the appointment
o( old soldiers, several days ago asked
tho commission at Washington whether
or not a soldier who bint been lionora
hiy discharged was to be given prefer
ence over civilians who had attained n
high grade in tho examination. In a
letter tho commission holds that a sol
dier is not to be given preference unless
lie was discharged from the service on
account, of disability contracted during
his term of enlistment The ruling was
so surprising in its nature that Postmas
ter Wallace refused to believe that it
C'.uld he in accordance with the spirit
of the law. At his request a meeting of
the local board to consider tho decision
will bo held Monday. Tho postmaster
dies not think the decision will stand.
U it. does n number of soldiers who
would have been given positions imme
diately will be barred from the service.

Milwaukee, Wis,, August 23. Yes
terday was real Grand Army day, wheo
the men fall into line nnd obey orders,
when the officer receives as his right the
regulation salute of his subordinate.
The old soldier as he rolled out of his
bunk of straw or from under the couu
terpaue, as the case might be, instinc
tively gave himself nn extra shake for
ni.pearauee's sake, smoothed out a few
wrinkles in his clothes or brushed from
them the dust of travel. It was the day
of dress parade, and the veteran who was
not, anxious to look well and desirous
that his company or regiment should
make a good appearance was not worthy
of his name.
In the morning the cities and towns
of the state teemed to have emptied
themselves in Milwaukee. In the ho
tels the crush was terrible. Jt was all
one could do to force his way through.
In tho I'liuikinton house especially,
where General Sherman, General Alger,
Commissioner lanuer nml Mrs. Logan
were, crowds were standing around
waiting to get a glimpse of the distin
guished parties. Mrs. Logan, coming
down the steps from the largo dining
hall about 9 o'clock, leaning on the arm
of General Alger, was forced to hold an
impromptu reception, 83 a crowd of vet
erans from one direction and a bevy of
ladies from the opposite direction rush
ed to greet, her.
Mrs. Lognn had a distinguished ap
pearance as she stood a stop above tho
crowd before her, her ruddy face set iu
a frame of silver while hair wreathed iu
smiles. She seems never to tire of re
ceiving the greectings of "the boys,"
and certainly the boys never tiro of
greeting her. She divides the honors
with General Sherman.

THE HEAVY BOND OFFERINGS.
Attempts are being made by certain
self-styled financial writers with bear
ish tendencies to show that the recent
heavy offerings of bonds for redemp
tion are proof of a serious state of af
fairs in the money market. That this
idea is correct is not believed for a mo
ment by the treasury officials, or is it
born out by the facts. The total pur
chase of 4s and 4.1s during the past ten
days have aggregated about $22,000,000.
"The offerings have been remarkably
steady," said Acting Secretary Puchel
lor to your correspondent last evening,
"and there is not the faintest indication
that they resulted from a panicky feel
ing in the money centers. On the con
trary they came from excellent houses.
and simply indicate that, the holders of
bonds have made up their minds that
the government does not intend to ad
vance the price which will be paid.
"it is worthy of note," he continued,
"that w hile last year at this time the ac
tual surplus iu the treasury was about
$107,000,000, it is now- reduced to below
$40,000,UOo, and this in spite of the fact
that the price paid is 1 per cent below
tho figures prevailing u year ago. I
consider the financial situation healthy
and encouraging."

General Wallace says that when General
Grant saw that the confederacy was
doomed ho feared large numbers of con
federate soldiers would afterw ards go to
Mexico and join the Maximilian army.
Iia persuaded Lincoln to secretly aid
the Guarez government to expel Maxa
iuilliau. Wallace was sent to Mexico
to open negotiations and was instructed
not to let Secretary Seward know of his
action, as tho latter was opposed to
Bch action. The result of the move
ment was the strengthening of the Mex
ican army and tho overthrow of Max-
imillian.
In the September Magazine of Amer

monition of r.ain during the early morn
ing hours, and-evei.vthing-favoreiUhe
success of the grand parade.
T he parade, while not so large as somo
anticipated, was well managed, a iino
spectacle and a complete success. A
thing remarkable iu the history of big
processions was that, it started on time. .
The head of the columns began to move
at 10 o'clock and reached the reviewing
stand on Grand avenue nt 10::!0. A cou- , the chances of Judge Groff for a posi-
servative estimate ot t lie nuinl.er ot men
who passed that point places it at lio,000.
A noticeable incident in the parade
was the enthusiasm of the old veterans
w henever they catch a glimpse of Gen-
end Sherman. He was greeted with
round after round of cheers while the
bands forgot their admonition not to
play "Marching Through Georgia,"
and the grizzled old hero of the tri-
iinii)hal"niarch through the south had to
listen to the tunc that has dinned iu his
ears ever since the war w as closed. Oc
casionally a veteran in the ranks would
break out with a sally at hisolil general.
"Oh, you will live to light through an
other war," while another shouted
"How about those chickens?" To the
hitter's interrogative General Sherman,
who was as tickled as a school bov, re
plied: "Oh, I never took the trouble to
iiuiuiro where they eanie from."
The Pennsylvania delegation made
tho best appearance of any post in the
line, and were conspicuous for their
soldierly bearing throughout the entire
parade.
There were two magnificent spectac
les to be seen about the time the parade
started. One was observable from the
intersection of Eighth street and Grand ;
avenue. Loosing aown uie avenue to
the bridge, with tho gaudily bedecked I
bridgo as n background and all the way
un the street as snlo lights, the great, i
seething muss presented a panorama I
which no one who saw it is likely to for- !
get in a lifetime. It whs grand and im
posing anil bow cay it loolted withnl. '
There was breeze enough to keep the
banners and rings fluttering and tho ,
lively movements of the individual com
ponents ot the great mass suggested
that the whole was being stirred by I
pleasiug emotions and the nags and the
people wore all dancing to the eame '
joyous music.

THE ARMY DESERTIONS PROBLEM.
Secretary Proctor has been consider
ing very seriously of late the subject of
the frequent desertions in tho army, and
lias been casting about for a plan to
(heck them. Talking about the matter
to-night, he said that the subject would
receive somo attention in his annual re
port. He has discussed it with Major
(leneral Schofield and Adjutant General
Kelton, bnt what conclusion has been
reached, if any, he was not prepared to
state at this time. The secretary said
that the majority of the desertions oc
cnared in the first year of service, due
doubtless to the fact that a grent many
men enlisted in hiiste and repented at
leisure, and after the first novelty of
soldiering had worn off and the men
found that they wore pledged to five
years' service they ran away. The sugges
tion lias been made that if the term of
pnlistment was reduced to three years
the percentage of desertions would not
i be so great. While the secretary is not
prepared to state that that, would do
away with the evil, he is considering
tho suggestion in connection with a
great many others that have been made
to him. Ho says that the stories which
have been printed of late in connection
with the bad and insuflieient, food given
to the men me untrne, as tho privates
nre well fed. Ho does not believe tlrat
tho rank nnd file are badly treated by
the officers, but thinks there may be
some truth in the charges of brutality
brought against the non-commissioned
officers, and as the latter nre thrown in
such close communication with the men
it is a difficult matter to control.
