A. It and of the Spanish War Veterans! Portland. -.'-. ; . . .' ' As the decimated ranks of the- men who fought for the preservation of the union passed through the streets there were outbursts of applause that told the grrisled veterans of the regard in which they are held the days tribute to tha living on the day dedicated to the memory of the dead. There was appluuse also for the men of mora 'sprightly step who marched In the division or epanian. war veterans- Imari far tha most nart whn narticlDated An the campaigns in tha Philippines as members of the, Oregon volunteers. The crowd likewise noted the fine ap rea ranee of tha sis companies of the third refitment of the pregon National 'Guard, who acted us escort Tor tha boys of 61. Guardsmen Becelve Veterans. 'Marching four abreast, about 260 vet erans stepped Into the line that formed .t Second and Morrison streets for tha march. The route was not long, but it was too long for many, who either rode behind the marchers In carriages or went to the scene of the exercises at Ytne'ir 'W1sure-- ' The "parade "was ' headed by Captain Moore and 14 members ( of the police force, reaching from curb- to curb, followed m order by TomJinson's band and tha National Guard. Aa tha column swung-up Fourth street to the plnza tha National Guard stood at pre , pnt arms while the civil war veterans filed In front of them Into tha plaza. The Spanish War Veterans, headed by Commander Seneca "Fouts, formed a separata division and took an- Independ ent line of march -that criss-crossed the roots of the main parade.' This apparently eccentric .' course ' resulted from an unfortunate controversy ovr the bands. The veterans of the Span ish unpleasantness had engaged the ar tillery band from Vancouver barracks to head their line. 4 As the parade was forming tha president of the Musicians union appeared and objected to the pres ence of a nonunion band, contrary to the rules of tha union. :, ' ;98 Tata Farad.

On tha other hand, the union leader threatened to withdraw the tnuslo from tha main division if the artillery band fell Into line. In the' end the Spanish Jieterans decided to take their own line of march and have , a parade of their own This course was somewhat mys tifying to the crowds, who did notun dcrstand'the fact that the Spanish' vet erans were maneuvering alone. , ' ;, At the plaza the exercises of tha" O.

' The Pemocrats Drefer not to dltion to the test and thereby endanger artillery, which inspired them with the battle spirit So said the speaker, "if Hobaon s predictions of war comes true, and we engage in deaoly conflict again, the alacrity of the old men will Inspire tne younger men wun an unbounded en- tnuaiasm." . :' - - ; Only onoe did the speaker refer to issues that confront the nation today. This was when he declared that the na tion needs the old men on guard men who will see that the priceless boon for which they fought and the liberty they cherish shall not perish by the concen tration of wealth. This sentiment was roundly applauded, as was his declara tion denouncing the Bptrlt of anarchy. "Cemented by Saorlflo." Mr. Young told of a visit be paid to the battlefield of Chickamauga and the emotions which filled him as he viewed the field of carnage and tried to count the loss. The great struggle was worth' the awful cost, he declared, for God sometimes takes this means of strengthening a nation, cementiBg it py sacrince. The? speaker' touched briefly on , the tendencies of the earlier statesmen, the schools represented by tainoun and Hayne on one side, and' by Clay. Web ster and Jackson on the .other.
