All old subscribers can take advantage of this offer by pay- ing up back dues. President Cleveland was treated very nicely by the Grand Army in New York on decoration day. Each division as they passed him sent up cheers. The Tuttles crowd did not participate. The Mlinois delegates to the na- tional convention at Chicago, invited the leading infidel country, Col. Robert G. Ingersoll, to nominate Judge Gresham. have Blaine s letter refusing to accept the for cast the republican party windward nomination again, and leaves Belvia a fighting by the Chic Lockwood chance for ago convention. As General of the army Sheridan's salary will be $13,500, while as Lieut. General it was $11,000. Compared with the compensation of officers of corresponding rank and services in the armies of most of the great European nations, this pay is small. The secretary of the ex-Confeder- ate association of Missouri writes to the Republican that there will be no state reunion held this year. This follows the precedent of 1884, when there was both a presidential and state election, and notice is given in time, in order not to interfere with any local reunions that may be in contemplation. —______. The national prohibition conven- tion at Indianapolis, last week, nomi- nated Clinton B. Fisk for president and John A. Brooks for vice-presi- dent. The platform arraigns both the democratic and republican ties, favors woman suffrage, desires to correct all the moral social evils of the United States.

From all the information obtain- able up to the time of going to press, we hazard the prediction that the names heading this artiele will be the nominees of the democratic con- vention, Louis, for president and vice president. The nomination of Grover Cleveland for the first place is beyond the reach of any earthly power to defeat as heis the most popular president this govern ment has everknown. He was elected with many misgiv s. even by some demoer asa change of adminis. tration is always looked forward to with apprehensions of evil.

The lack of favorable tidings from General Sheridan inspired somewhat unusual on the part of his friends in congress to give expression to the admiration and respect for the war- rior. The bill which passed the sen- ate day before yesterday and the house this morning, reviving the rank of “General in the Army” for his benefit, was not permitted to take the usual course, but under the personal supervision of Senator Hawley, chairman of the senate com- mittee on military affairs, it was en- grossed within half an hour of its vassage and taken by the senator in person to the president.
