CENTENARY OF THE CONTINENTAL
CONGRESS-.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8, 18I4.-Old
Carpenters Hall, standing back from
Chestnut street, above Third street, is
gaily decorated to-day in honor of the
centennial anniversary of the meeting Of
the first Continental Congress in that
building.
In the main the old hall has been well
preserved All the desks and chairs
used at the session of the fifty-four dele
gates are still to be seen, and it is
thought that the position of the furni-
ture is precisely the same now as then.
There are many quaint old documents of
one kind and another hanging about the
walls, along with several peculiar looking
banners, upon which is inscribed "Ye
ancient companie Of ye carpenters" and
there are letters, too, from Washington,
Henry and others.
Appropriate ceremonies took place,
the main feature of which was an GRAFTON
by Henry Armitt Brown.
Among the audience were many
distinguished personages, conspicuous
among whom was Vice President Wilson.
Four of the oldest mombcrs Of Carpon
ter's company, which now has but 81
names ON its roll, were seated near the
reading desk. These were: Moses Lam
caster, 90 years of age, who became a
member in 1911; John NJ. Ogden, "a
years, who became member in 1916;
D. II. Flickwir, rs years, who became a
member in 1924, and James A. Camp.
bell. 20 years, who became member in

the doors were opened, and the small

A HAPPY CENTENNIAL.

In an article headed the True Cen
tennial," the New York Herald publishes
some observations which should carry
much weight with the thinking portion
of the community. 1t points out that
to make the hundredth anniversary
OF the birth of the nation the day OF
rejoicing that it ought to be, partici-
pated in to its fullest extent by citizens
from all parts of the country, that diff
ferent policy should be inaugurated than
for years has characterized the course of
the administration and the action of the
National Legislature. The South, at
the present day, are so many conquered
provinces or SO many sovereign States.
They are either one or the other. Under
the Constitution of the United States
there is no hating place, no middle
ground on which to rest. They are
States, members of the Union, each hay

the Constitutions OF the States and the

no protection, save such rs the magma
nimity and the mercy of the victors may
dictate. The inherent ever present vice
of the Congressional legislation that, has
obtained during the last nine years, that
the Southern States has not been treated
Lac lra1
the courage to take the bull by the horns
and declare the broad area of the
Southern States SO much subjugated
territory, tho inhabitants of which
had to submit without appeal, to
such rules and regulations that their
conquerors might choose to enforce.
They would not do this; but while keep
ing up phantom of State Government,
they prescribed rules for this matter, in
terfered in that, did something else,
undid still another, until the wretched
people of those States were SO confused,
appalled,, deadened, stunned with the
unparalleled, continued interference that
always ended ir misfortune and loss
that they fell into the stupor of despair.
Tho fruits of this unwise, inhuman treat
ment, are at last apparent. After nine
years OF peace, of legislation of every
character, the condition of the Southern
States is worse now than when the war
closed, and with no signs of improve

Should not the fair minded, the patri-
otto of all sections, take this matter in

or sectional sense, but actuated by the
broad, generous spirit of humanity, pro.
coed to solve this problem If this were
done with patriotic, honorable desire
TO see all sections of the country happy
and prosperous, with past differences
buried in deepest oblivion, the solution
would be easily reached. If this were
