Last week the Herald-Review got its church announcements a little mixed. Rev. Mr. Scott, pastor of the M. E. church, was_ given possession of the Presbyterian church for the Sunday service, according to our re- port, which was not true. Services heldin the M. E. church and a unusual large congregatiun was in attendance. Dr. N. D. Kean, formerly of Ish- peming, Mich., has taken charge of the Bovey hospital. The doctor is a very pleasant gentleman to meet, and his professional reputation is such as to recommend him to the confidence of any community. In company with Mr. W. A. Watson, also of Ishpeming, he was a guest at the Pokegama Wednesday. Judge Page Morris, Postmaster E. L. Fisher, Giles Gilbert and Dr. C. E.

Seelye and family have re-|’ WAS OBSERVED (Continued From Page One.) them, and they are not disturbed, Stones and lettered monuments sym- jbolize the affection of surviving friends. Yet no sound proceeds from them, save that silent and thrilling admonition: ‘Seek ye the straight aud narrow path that leads unto eter- nal life.” Weare again called upon to consider the uncertainty of human life — the immutable certainty of death, and the vanity of all human »yursuits. Decrepitude and decay are written upon every living thing. The cradle and the coffin stand in juxta- position to each other, and it isa melancholy truth that so svon as we begin to live; that moment also we begin todie. It is passing strange that notwithstanding the daily mo- mentos of mortality that cross our paths; notwithstanding the funeral bell so often tolls in our ears, and the sad, mournful procession pass along our streets, that we will not more seriously consider our own approach- ing fates. We go on from de- sign to design, and hope to hope, and jay out plans fur the employment uf many years to come, until we are suddenly alarmed at the approach of the messenger of death at a moment when we least expect him. What, then, are all the externals of human dignity, the power of wealth arid the dreams of ambition, the pride of in- tellect or the charms of beauty when nature has paid her last debt? Fix your eyes on the last, sad scene and view life stripped of its armaments, and you must be persuaded of the ute ter emptyness of these delusions. In the grave a'l fallacies are detected, all ranksare leveled and all distine- tions are done away. Here the scep- ter of the prince and the staff of the beggar are laid side. by side, and the white and the black, the gray and the blue, the young and the old, the rich and the poor, are all on alevel.. We are not assembled here to honor the flesh and bones of these deaa herves, which jong since have decayed and re- turned unto dust, the immortal achievement of the imperishable spirit that for a litule while tenanted them;.the eyes that were so keen to see Opporbunity and the hands that were so quick to seize it; the ears that heard the call of duty aod readily re- sponded—willing to do and to die, if need be to preserve the union. Every true Americau becomes patriotic at least twice a year—on the Fourth day of July and on Memorial day. These two days mean a great deal to the American people.. The fourth day of July means the political independence of tbe British, colonies in America; yes, it means a great deal moré. When thetrembling old man rang that dell,of biberty, the fourth day of July, 1776-—its tones went across the sea, and tyrants sat trimbling on their thrones. ‘They heard an echo of Uhe din of a sovereign people deter- ment to be free and independent. Our fathers became tired of being colonists; tired of writing and sign Ing petitions and presenting them, on their bended knees, toan idiot king with a tinsel crown upon his brain- less head. The ringing of the bell of liberty meant something to every human being: but more especially to the English race. The declaration of the forth of July was only one phase of the revolution of the English peo- ple. It was,fought out there in the English parliament. It was a revolt agaiust the oolicy-of taxation witb- out representation, and it was suc- cessful both here and there. Since that bell was rung in Philadelphia no English king has dared to take movey from the treasury of the em- pire without a yote of the represent- atives ofthe people. So that our fourth of July means something to every Englishman, Irishman, Seotch- man, Australian, New Zelander, Canadian or wherever the flag of Britain flies. The fourth of July signifys a great deal more. The peo- ple of thirteen weak. unorganized colonies, a declaration of war by a few people without strength, without military stores, without a trea- sury, witheut a navy, withort the means of making or obtain- ing one, against the most powerful kingdom on earth, they made up their minds that a new natien must be formed. They signed the declar- ation of independence, although they knew that it would produce a lung, terrible and bloody war. ‘l'hey looked forward and saw’ proverty, depri- vation, gloom and death, but they also saw, on the wrecked clouds of war, the beautiful bow Of freedom. For seven long sauguary. years they fought, died and bleed, mauy times half starved,and almost naked. They were brave and adventurous. spirits, men who had opinions of ,their own, and were willing to live in the wild those opinions, even if they expressed ew only to tes reeks and wh it they suffered, and for the liber- ties we enjoy. Many of us well re- member when these liberties were threatened in 1861 with desolation an@ruin by the southern confederacy. In order to maintain and preserve these sacred rights and liberties, so dearly bought by our fathers and handed down to us, 1t required over two million young men from the north whe struggled for four’ long sanguary years with about fifteen hundred thousand young men of the suuth to rescue the nation’s. life. Begining with the firing on Fort Sumter, April 12th, 1861; and ending with thesurrender of Kirby Smith the 26th of May, 1865, there were 1,505 days on every one of which the vicious crack of the rifleand the sul- len roar of the cannon was heard along the line of battle, which Streached half way across the conti- bent. During this terrible conflict of ouf civil war the union ordinance department served out 7,892 canon, 4,022,000 rifles,’ 2,360,000 equipments forests for the sake of expressing | Street for foot and horse. 12,000 tons of pow- der, 42,000 tons of shot and shell and 1,022,000,000 cartridges. During this terrible and bloody conflict of four years 125,000 union soldiers were killed in battle, 280,040 were wounded 184,791 were missing or were captured, 250,000 died of disease and 223,535 were discharged on account of wounds rendering them incapable for further service. The fearful death roll does not include tens of thousands who died imediately after their discharge, or were killed but reported missing. Out of every five men who enlisted during the civil war one wesdead at its close. May God put far the day when the American people shall look unmoved on the fourth day of July and Memorial day. Patriotism lives largely .on sentiment. There has been no great people without pro- cessions and the man who thinks himself to good or to wise to be moved by them to anyting but con- tempt, is like the mud puddle that was proud of standing alone while the sparkling river rushed by.” VILLAGE BONDS TO BE ISSUED. As will be seen by the official prog ceedings of the villege council, pub- lished elsewhere in this issue of the Herald-Review, a special village elec- tion is called for June 12. The pro- position to bond the municipality im the sum of $17,000, for the purpose of taking up the floaung indebtedness of the village, will be submitted to a vote of the electors. Itis a business pro position that should carry without opposition. The rate of interest will be reduced by one-halt “nd the vil- lage will be placed on acash basis for the transaction of current business. ‘The payment of interest on orders at the rate of 6 per cent. together with a 3 per cent. bonus to the banks for handling the orders has been an un- necessary extravigance for which no reasonable excuse could be offered. It should be stopped forthwith. [t is the intention of the council to berrow from the state university and, school funds. STILL USES THE CRUTCHES Frank L, Vance is down from his Big Fork home to attend the coming term of court. Heis still unable to walk without the aid of crutches and he may never fully recover. Last July he met with an accident on the platform of the Grand Rapids depot and sustained severe injuries to his back. He has brought action aginst the Great Northern Railway company to recover $50,000 damages. C. C. McCarthy 1s his attorney. Village Council Proceedings—Official + Publication. Grand Rapids, Minn..
