Just beginning a ten-year re-
bellion against the Spanish that
would soon win the official
sympathy of the U, S. House of
Representatives.
But most Americans had put
thoughts of war behind them.
They were looking westward to
the Great Plains and to the
“manifest destiny” of the na-
tion. Miners had started the
surge west. Now the Union Pa-
cific and the Central Pacific
railways were nearing . their
meeting at Promontory Point,
Utah, which would mark the
completion of the first trans-
continental railway. The rail-
roads would bring in settlers
and equipment. They would
carry back to Eastern markets
the herds that Texas cattlemen
were beginning to drive north.
Fanners would follow the cow-
boys, respectable towns would
replace the rowdy camps Bret
Harte was immortalizing in
such stories as “The Luck of
Roaring Camp,” and the fron-
tier would disappear.
The stage was set for the em-
ergence of the Union, cemented
by the dead who were being
memorialized on that May 30th,
as an industrial giant that
would spread Its bounty across
a continent.
Norman Angle received the

The Purolator Automotive Research Bureau remind* you to follow
these hint* when you drive during the four-day Memorial Day weekend:
1. Hold speed to 60 or below on the open road, and obey posted
speed limit*.
2. Put time of arrival at your destination last in importance, and
your safe arris al first.
3. Stay away from the wheel if you've been drinking, 6

Our Seventy-Third Year
of Service to This Area
When Memorial Day was
first observed In 1868, San Juan
Hill, Verdum, Dunkerque and
Korea still were unfamiliar
names to most Americans. They
were honoring men who had
died in their own land at the
hands of their own countrymen
in defense of “one nation, inidi-
visible.”
What was that first Memor-
ial Day like:
Major General John A. Lo-
gan proclaimed the holiday. The
Grand Army of the Republic
which he commanded was lead-
ing the tributes with services at
Arlington National Cemetery.
Just across the rives in Wash-
ington, D. C., President Andrew
Johnson was probably celebrat-
ing the end of his impeachment
trial four days ago. He had been
acquitted, but his enemies, the
Radical Republicans, were firm-
ly in control of Reconstruction
and determined to punish the
South.
The day was probably greet-
ed with mixed feelings by the
four million former slaves. Le-
gally they were still not citi-
zens, but Congress, after cele-
brating the holiday, would go
back to work on passing the
Fourteenth Amendment to
make them so. The Negroes
were trying to adjust to their
new freedom, with little help
from the newly organized Ku-
Klux Klan.
The old Southern aristocracy,
too, had to make adjustments.
Its land had been ruined, its
economy was near collapse and
its social traditions had been
overturned.
The picture was more cheer-
ful in the North, where Harriet
Beecher Stowe, author of Uncle
Tom’s Cabin, was now writing
stories about New England life.
While the war had shattered
the South, It had brought
booming prosperity to the
North. Men who financed the
Union cause and manufactured
Ka weapons and supplies be-
came millionaires and, at the
same time, speeded up the pro-
cess of industrialization.
There were still echoes of
war on that solemn day. While
graves were being decorated
with flowers, Irish republicans
in the United States were plot-
ting to take over Canada and
hold It as hostage for the free-
announced that a number ot
volunteers from the Sealy unit
will be on the streets offering
the veteran - made poppies to
the public Saturday.
Poppy Day has been observed
in Sealy for many years. Mrs.
Luedecke said the American Le-
gion and Auxiliary adopted the
poppy as the official memorial
flower shortly after the first
World War. “Originally, silk
poppies were made by war wid-
ows and orphans in France for
distribution in this country. But
soon afterwards, disabled Am-
erican veterans began making
the now-familiar poppies out of
crepe paper,” Mrs. Stastny said.
“The poppy was a familiar
dens were for failure to have a
fishing license.
There were also numerous
hunting violations, including
mostly shooting of game out of
season. One man was arrested
for dynamiting fish. Four were
picked up for using a motor
boat while intoxicated.
Capt. Sprott also called at-
tention to the requirement of
having a life preserver for each
occupant of a boat while on the
water. This safety factor fre-
quently is overlooked.
In all, the 232 persons paid
fines and costs amounting to
$6,388.40 during the month.
An array of awards were pre-
sented to graduates at Sealy
High School baccalaureate and
commencement exercises Sun-
day night at Tiger Field.
Among the 20 or so awards
were the citizenship awards giv-
en to the best all. around boy
and best all around girl by the
Sealy Legion Post and Auxil-
iary Unit. Miss Billye Jean Jur-
ica, class salutatorian and
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Jurica, Jr., won the girl’s award.
Richard Snitkin, son of Mr. and
Mrs. E. W Snitkin, won the
boy's award.
The Legion groups give these
awards each year as a part of
their work with the youth.
Another phase ot- their inter-
est in youth is the sending of
Bluebonnta Boy and Girl Stat-
ers to Austin each year. Miss
Jurica was Sealy Unit's repre-
sentative last year.

Vote Your Choice For Senator
At Election This Saturday
This Saturday, Texans will be asked to spend five
minutes in selecting their United States Senator who
will serve them for the next 2,911,680 minutes — five
and a half years. W
Those are pretty good odds. You get mbre than a
a year of service for each minute of voting time you
invest. If, for no other reason, that is sufficient in-
centive for you to vote.
But here are more important things to consider.
The man selected by Texans Saturday will represent
our state in some of the most crucial years facing our
nation. This is a highly important election. The
choice should be made by all Texans so that there will
be no mistake as to who the victorious candidate rep-
resents. —..
There are more than 2,000,000 Texans qualified to
vote. The ballot is short; only two names appear on
it. It is probably the shortest ballot ever used 'in a
statewide election. And one of the most important.
This paper joins with the Governor of Texas and all
our Congressmen in urging you to exercise your right
to vote Saturday. Never had you had such an oppor-
tunity to spent a few moments so wisely.
Vote as you see fit — but, please, see fit to vote.
