Another memorial service day has
anco of people as witnesses of the sue
cessful ceremonies held in honor of
the event. The Grand Army of the
Republic, according to previous ar
rangements, formed piomptly at one
o'clock on the walk in front of their
headquarters and marched to the pub
lic school grounds where they halted,
and Mr. David Lutz, an old soldier,
made the following speech':
"Ladies, comrades, and children:
You are a.-32inbled to celebrate one of
your country's most sacred and hal
lowed lays, a day whose return and
memory 1- cheri-lieu by every Amen
can patriot with an ardor, zeal and de-
votion superior to that which they en
tertain for any other day ; a day set
apart by the nation, to the nation, for
the exercise of thoughts and deeds,
commemorative of the services and
sacrifices
"Of o-ir -ires. sons, anil brothers.

All whonolilj "dared and did" In our eoim-

It has seemed to me this day was provi
dentially designed to be emphatically
an envolvcr of the purest, and fullest,
allcctional feeling that it is possible for.

huving been fixed at a time when all
nature is considered to have attained
the very climax of fresh ami beautiful

ately symbolic of the beautiful fresh

revivified human entity in tho spirit
world, to which our beloved and de
parted comrades have only preceded
us.
Ah, yes! my faith's keen sight be

up the heights, beyond ihe mystic river'.-

them, comrade-, as they pass in grand
review before the Chief Commauder of
theuniver-c? See! see! ! They wear
m.moie their "faded coats of blue."
They've changed them all for robes of
spotle.-s white. And hark ye! Can ye
not hear that rapturous music, peal on
peal ? That is from the consolidated
heavenly choristers. And list ye to
the thrilling theme they chant. "Hail,

their lives a sacrifice, to atone a na

After which the procession nearly
one half mile long was funned in the foi
owing older: IJarlield Post, school
children, Ltdies' Relief Corps, buggies,
wagons, etc, and proceeded to the
cemetery- On aniving there the
Grand Army boys and school children
decorated the soldiers graves with
beautiful flowers. This done the im
posing ceremonies of the Grand Army
of the Republic followed, at tho clo-c
of which Mr. Joseph Gaiber, made the
following very appropriate remarks:
'Comrades and citizens: Wo have
paused at this memorial spot, conse
crated by the flag, to do a hallowed
service.
We could not find all the graves, for
in the rcstlc water.- are some .-lumbering
beneath its surface; the bluffs
of the still and quiet rivers cover some;
the high mountains look down on their
slopes and bases upjn the graves of
the noble and quiet dead. Let thoughts
of peace and heavenly le-t pass from
the living to our deatl comrades wjio-t
graves we could not hnu.
Comrades wo are by the nation's re
quest called upon to pay a solemn tri
bute to those who have fallen into that
dreamless sleep in which everlasting
peace shuts down their eyelids still, and
they fell on the line between the ag
gressive feet of freedom and a crazed
rebellion. Let us not forget those
whose march and tread did not reach
the end of that great struggle, but died
by the camp lire-; died in the smoke
cloud of battle; died in the murderous
prison pens. Ve are the living, they
are the dead, yet with us tlicy shared
all the haidsbips in camp, tho weary
tread in the march, and all the dang
ers in battle. Long years after they
have fallen the child is taught to dec
orate and consecrate their graves. So
it will be long after its generation shall
have passed away. Other children will
have learned 01 a great civil war,
through which the mantle of liberty
was handed to them sprung from your
loins andjin who-e veins courses your
most heroic blood. So it will be in the
lap of liberty won by the nation's de
fenders in which will be cradled all the
millions yet to come. Let nature's
freedom and white robed peace smile
hand in hand o'er the graves of the
loval dead. No.Ianguage is so profound,
no eloquence so great to add one laurel
to their fame. Their deeds -tand far
abovcrthe tceblo efforts of man to add
v ; .'.'' "tit .".'? f' v r t o: f- .
t :.ii .s;a'i. ij" si.aiu .i a :ii"i.a
tii sit bc.-jre i.ie v. 01 iii wall uil m
scrptto.i "we diet! that our 11.-.M n
might live" Our comrade-, whom-we
remember were not men of words, but
deeds. All their words were spoken
by the click of tho musket, the charge
of bayonets and the uplifted sabre.
With them there was but one sentence,
an unconditional surrender of treason.
Then, my comrades, as we peacefully
and solemnly have laved the flowers
on the graves of the noble dead let us
hope that with them there is peace,
happiness, and eternal rest, cradled in
the lap of an alwise and merciful God."
The G. A. R.platoon then fired three
salutes, which closed tho ceremonies
at the cemetery, and the crowd re
turned to the city, where services
were held in the Presbyterian church,
according to tho usages ami rules of
the Post. The Rev. J. K. Harris de
livered a shoi t but appropriate adrress
to the comrades and others present.
After the services at the church the
ceremonies were concluded and all re
turned to their various occupations.
During the ceremonies of decorating
the graves the business houses closed
up and no business was done from 0115
o'clock until four. Tho exercises were
altogether successful and the day very
properly observed by nearly all classes.

A certain firm in Red Cloud on so
licitation and big inducements, com
bined with false high quotations sent
them, were inveigled into bnving up a
carload of onions, and shipping: them
to one of the shipping frauds which
abound in a great many of the larger
cities to which our business men ship
to. The herein refered to was a cer
tain D. E. Good, of. Atchison, Kansas,
who sent his quofniious that onions
weie woith SI per bWmll and scarce at
that. The parties in Red Cloud at
once sent the onions, and a few days
after shipment his royal nibs, D. E.
Good, drew on the parties that shipped
the onions for $53.75, claiming that the
carloatl of onions sold for that much
short of freight, commission and dray
age. I think that D. E. Good h not
very good, end he must have a jaw of
iron and a cheek of brass to think he
can impose such eussedness upon our
business men without 11 murmur.

everything, instead ot recognizing tho
all-prevailing and sovereign influence,
or power of God as determining all the
affairs of the world. This is so much
the case at present as to render it nec
cssery to furnish a i'vw hints ui his
headsuch as may be both corrective
and regulative. The management of
the world and all its affairs are ever in
the hands of one who number- all the
hairs of our heads; who provides for
lns birds, and determines the time
when each one of them shall die; anil
who is acquainted with every flower in
our gardens, and every one in the wil
derness, and they all recieye from him.
their beauty as they are painted by him
to the minutest tint.
Knowing this to be so, it is painful
to hear it jo frequently asserted of the
phenomena of life and giowth, so con
stantly and universally witnessed, as
beingdue to nature. Just as if nature
were a potential and intelligent entity.
It is no being at all. Rut it is the pub
lic manifestation or expression of him,
who is in essence invisible, made by
himself the all-powerful, the all-good,
and tho all-wise. It is the public his
tory of God written in time; and this
history, for the want of a better expres
sion on my part, I regard as the partial
and external rendering of the more real
and enduring history stereotyped iu
eternity. This history is more impor
tant than that written in time, as iu the
eternal archives are contained much
more than-what has been iu yet reveal
ed iu Creation.
The assigning to nature tho power,
that only belongs to God by the use of
such language implies a principle riot
similar to that implied in the the using
of language merely phenomenally, or
such as wc use in the description of
what is only apparent. When we say
the kettle boils the real meaning is not
ob-cured by the metonymy, nor is the
science astronomy injured in the least
when we say the sun sets or tho impen
atrability ot matter contradicted by our
driving nails into boards. In such uses
of words our meanings are as clear or
manifest as the facts described. There'
is herein no danger to cither science or
morals, such language is well suited
for all common purposes and uses; and
as well adopted to the t'ougue of the
philospher and theologian as it is to
that of the most illiterate.
Most of us knows that wo are all de
linquent, and that our faults and shis
will sometimes upbraid us, but judgiug,
from the nature of the case we think,
to some extent at least, correctively;
and hence we may learn that it is well,,
pei haps, to have them occasionally, if
not "ever before us,'' so that we may
sin less, even if not "no more."
Rut I think we arc not all aware that
were it possible for us to live without
even infracting a moral law, or
that x e have, so lived that it
would be no proof of being guiltless of
the awful sin of atheism. Rut we must
have a God known, or unknown, as was
proved more than 1,1)00 years ago by
the highest human culture in Athens.
It is dangerous to obscure the unob
scurablc, or to try to manufacture a
substitute for him who is competent
and who only is competent, to do all
things, and well at that.
The relegating Of God to the back
ground of thought is an attempt ta
eject Him altogether and this wo fairly ;
world and iu affairs to any other agenyl

imaginary or otherwise, and also byv-
eliminating iiiui trom spcecn. And
to say that mere material things of
themselves functionally bring to pass
the results or ellecta we daily witness,
if po-sible is worse than even atheism
And it is Satanic to recognize God and
then try to dishonor Him, this is anti-thei-m,
and opposes God.
Nature it-elf is just as much a priv-.
alive, or "nothing at all" in the univer
sal universe of God, as any other "idol
is nothing at all in the world."
In conclusion I would say of the ex
istence of God, that none but "fools in.
their hearts" ever said there was none.
The first sentence in His word secures.
His existence to us. "In the beginning
God created the heaven and the earth."
And He ever sustains them and all
things, or "worketh hitherto."
It oyer gave me pleasure to look at
monuments erected in honor of good
men and women, and am glad to find
the practice becoming yet more com
mon: and I may remark that in tho
inconceptive centre of the infinite uni
verse God has erected and unveiled a
monument of His own, so great,, and
so gloriously conspicions that it may
be seen by every intelligent crcaturo
in a universe replete with such intelli
gences. It is visible from thejbottom
less depths of Tartarus as welKfts from
the immeasurable heights or heaven,,
ami from all around ) at diVfances no
less. To it are attached all things and
around it are arranged and co-ordinated
all the affairs nfkthe universe. It is
erected to the "Wisdom and Power of
God," aifcl is itself "Christ Crucified.''
And indeed the human perversion
must have been astonishing that could
find either '-Stumbling block," or
"Foolishness." Arciid Thomson:
