It., of this city. milking preparations to observe Memorial Day in tilting and appropriate manner. The heautiriil custom of decorating the graves of the fallen soldiers of thn nation, on a cer tain day in each year, which has come to be observed everywhere throughout the length and breadth of the land, was first inaugurated by the Coimuau-dcr-in-cliief of the army -the laic .lo'iii A. Logim , in a general order issued nineteen years atro. Xext Mtimlav being the first Mem orial Dav occurring hi"L-c lliu death of Logan, it comes with more than tho usual iinprcseivcness to his sur viving comrades, and although the post at this place has few in number, they desire toob-erve the lay in an appropriate a maiinei- as possible. As aunouiicciMast week the members of the post will meet at their hall at 10 o'clock a. m. and from thence pro ceed to the Presbyterian church, where services will be held. Afterward the graves of the soldiers in the graveyard will be decorated. The citizens gen erally are invited to participate, and it is 10 ho hoped there will be a large attendance.

" Doing away with banks of issue is the third important question which will have to he met soon, for the rap id payment of governieut bonds will induce the. issuers of illogical and ex pensive national bank curreucv toasic couirrcssional sanction for some other means of keeping hold of this source of income, and last, but not least, is it not a matter of vital importance to a free yoverment that stato ownership of railroads, telegraphs and like means of transporting intelligence, passen gers and freight, he settled? On this point the Knights are to speak with no uncertain sound. ' ' miv stock t,a w.
