There is no class of citizens in the country more appreciative of the services rendered the United States by the yoanp men who left their homes, firesides and business to assist in fighingjour battles in the war with Spain, than the soldiers of the Civil war. They recognized readily what was expected of and likely to occnr when many of their own sons, relatives and friends went forth to follow in their footsteps, to serve as soldiers--that it was impossible for all to return to their homes and loved ones, that to be a sol­ dier meant death by disease, by shot and shell, that more or less of each company's ranks must be diminished, especially so if they were engaged in battle and saw anything like hard service. General Sherman once said: "War means hell." (Jeneral Hnrlbut, when asked by some of his staff, immediately after the bloody battle fought along the Hatchie river in Mississippi, what name should be given the battle, said promptly: "Hell on the Hatchie." It seeing, how­ ever, that the yellow preBS and thous­ ands of people who read it and take de­ light in following the sensational reports of these lying sheets, must have imagined that war meant a general good time, a summer ont'ing, or a grand picnic all along the line; that no one was expected to be sick, disease would be unknown, and if there were to be any one killed or wounded it would be the Spanish sol­ diers; in fact,, that tlj» Americans were impregnable to Juliets and disease. The men who are responsible for all the lies and rot that has been sent out daring our less than four months' war with Spain, are either fools or knaves, but more likely tinctured with both. There has been but comparatively little cause for complaintof the hardships undergone by our soldiers during their service so far. The death rate up to two weeks ago, by disease, at home, in the hospital or camp, and by wounds, and those killed in battle all told per anuum was scarcely 11 per cent., while 'during the first year of the Civil war the same was over 55 per cent. The soldiers in the war with Spain have been carried hun­ dreds OF miles in palace and sleeping cars, while the soldiers who served in the Civil war were marched thousands of miles over hills and mountains, often half fed and half clothed, and if they were ever furnished transportation it was to ride in box, cattle or flat card, or on top of the former, or, perhaps, on old rickety steamboats, unsound and unsafe. The writer never saw a sleeper or palace car during his service of forty-five month?; in fact, there were no palace or tourist cars then, and sleepers were few and far between. The whole service of our men during the Civil war, that is, of the men who did the service, was vastly different in every way, and no comparison can be made that would do the case justice The soldier boys of to-day, as a whole, have not been the ones to complain, especially so during the first two months or more of their service, but of late they have been almost made to believe that theirs was indeed a hard lot and never were soldiers treated so inhumanely as they have been, where the facts are di rectly contrary. Whoever heard of sol­ diers or their friends at home petition­ ing President Lincoln ta discharge this or that soldier, or muster out certain regiments? These vermin'of the yellow press and hundreds of their principal ad­ herents are the same class of people who voted the war for the Union a failure in 1864, designated Lincoln an "ape, rail- splitter and ignoramus." Grant an im­ becile and a fool and Sherman crazy. They are that class who hated the soldier in the field, but pretended to be their best friends, and whose bitter hatred has followed them to the present. In tbe Waukegan Gazette we find this. "Those who are loudest IA their rascally attacks upon the adminstration in its conduct of the war are also the vilest in asaaultiog the A. R. He are some ex­ tracts from the Chicago Tribune: "What the European nations axe pay­ ing for a standing army we are paying for a sitting army. "This is a terrible cancer on the body politic. \ "The number of able-bodied men who performed actual military service would not furnish half the present ncmber now drawing pensions. Whence then, comes this vast army of dependents? "Tbe examining surgeons allowed everything in the semblance of a man to pass aud be mustered into service Here is where tbe pension evils for the future half century were bred. Nearly one-half of all tbe men entered on tbe army rolls were weak, DIP^SED, incapa­ ble men, who were not fit /SR army ser vice, and never could be." The above is from that soldier-hating sheet which attempted to slobber all over the "old boys" wben discharged^ in '65, extending the sweetest of taffy, as they are DOING now towards the "boys of '98."--WM.

The pastor wan the first to ask, If each "vouM do hia share. To beautify the building. Which would require much work, I'am sure he soon determined That none of us should shirk. " At first to me it seemed --__ No answer would bo given. Rut Brother Clark, had this resolved. As sure a» IIA was living, Tne house of liod he'd beautify. And with most eloquent speech fie toiled, and worked both day and night, His highest aims to reach. He somehow or other had formed an idea ?ha.t the ladies were superior to the man, In ralsine funds for mueh expense, So HASTENED URF»T TO THEIR,. To be sure we felt some flattered Wher. he said, "Although but few. We wore canable of doing much, / And woulu do it willingly, too." He called a business meeting Very early In the spring. And we were all to meet teat day With aister Kemmerling. Here he did 'joax the ladies, To do their level best. To raise two hundred dollars. And be could do the re»t." After mueh deliberation They decided they would try, . To raise enough, with what inay had. To reach those figures high. It looked a heavy burden For women to "try to pav, And we were all aiscouraged. Before the month of May, One thiuK was in our favor. The weather wft» very hot. And we prophesied, by making oream. We would realizes lot. All the bikes in town, and riders too. Were started on the road, ro beg for eggs and milk and eake, Tuey always got a load. The men became 60 gallant, We were almost put to flight. To see those men turn frerzer, Whv! t'was a shocking sight. And when the dewy evening came, Each one dressed in his best, Would drop the shining nicklea In, To help us raise the rest, We hustled all the summer. And when September came There was almost fifty dollars, Tor which we would be to blame. We h*d lial much experience, But we planned to have more yet. And by an Experience Social, We planned to pay the deot. The Ladies' Aid Society Which numbers many now. Decided each should earn a sua. And on this eve tell ho », The interval has been so long, Betwee' the jobs I done, I scarcely can reinemuer all. But will relate you some. I made two aprons for a friend. Which yielded me a quarter; 1 also made a tiny dre»s For *. ladie's little daughter, This time I counte 1 all I had. Thrde quai ters on »y table, Just twenty-live more <;ents to raise, . O! say, will 1 be able ? One morning while about my work I made a little plan, -- An oppor unity had dawned. And [ can Id caye a man From doing UIFTDY litti© THINGS# Which I mvself could do. And in this Vay I 'liil receive The balance that was due. I thank you for attention To tin*, my little rhyme; I thank you for your And pray that throusrh all time W# may be bleesed as bountifully# As we have been this ye^r, B member w e unite! staDd, The Aid Society here. --3firSi Annie MarRSE, Ring wood. We were unable to attend the Exper­ ience Social, but many have told us we missed a rare treat in not hearing the "Experiences." The following was handed us by one that was there: The Experience Social and New Eng­ land Supper, given at the home of J 8. Brown, Saturday evening, Sept. 24, was a success in evei'y way. The Ladies' Aid treasury was increased b.v nearly thirty- seven dollars. The'r ^hearts were made glad when they found they had at last so nearly raised the two hundred dollars pledged last spriDg on the church build­ ing fund. They have worked faithfully and have been rewarded. The experience part of the social was both novel and in­ teresting. The ladies responded to roll call by dropping in a dollar and related their experience in earning it. Many re­ sponded with a poem, which gRve much amusement to both old and young. While much credit is doe the Ladies' Aid Society tor aach noble help, we moat not forget the one who first inspired us IS this grand movement, Rev. J. R. CLARK. and we feel if it were not for his ENTER* \./M prise it could never have been accom* ! plished. <«£*. •> GREENWOOD. / We have returned to earth. „ I*, Corn harvest in our vicinity MARTY '{?$&. finished. • Harry Wilson has TAEN suffering witfc * " a large boil on the leftfebeelfr - Mr. and Mrs. Robbins spent the SALW . - \ / | bath with relatives on English Prairie. ~ / H E.
