Society Banquet.
The deep water movement still continues
to grow. The alliance has Endorsed It
throughout, both root and branches.
Capt Purse yesterday received from
Harry Brown the Endorsement of the ma
tional alliance at indianapolis, and the in
dividual Endorsements OF the presidents OF
the Texas, Kentucky. North Carolina, Mis-
souri,. Kansas and Michigan alliances.
The Endorsement of the national alliance
is especially valuable, because OF all the
numerous projects and schemes for govern
ment aid that came before that body Sa-
vannah's movement for deep water was the
only one which received its Endorsement.
This speaks volumes In itself for the effort.

the congress of the United States to complete
at as early date as possible the Improvement
upon the river and harbor at Savannah, Ca.

As Capt. Purse says, this Is the big gun.
President Jones of the Texas alliance
spreads himself so to speak, in his full
speaks as follows:
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 81, 1891.
To Whom it Muy Concern:
One Of the most important features Of sue
cesstul commerce Is transportation. No system
OF transportation can be complete without
sufficient number of accessible deep water ports,
No country can become wealthy and prosperous
without good volume OF exports aud imports.
and a system Of expectation aud importation
cannot exist without proper harbors deep, safe
and OF easy access.
The commerce of the south and west has
long been hampered for want Of competitive
seaports which will not only facilitate
but cheaper transportation, thereby putting
money Ia the pockets of the pro1ucer and saw
Ing money TO the consumer Il is for these
reasons that l heartily indorse the effort now
being made TO secure an appropriation from
the general government with which to COM
pete the improvement at the Savannah harbor
ter that important port In safety. This will
eventually result in direct line OF trade with
foreign nations from this the finest city on our
South Atlantic coast, aud will not only ma
terially aid in the equitable distribution Of the
fruits OF labor, and greatly benefit the rapidly
increasing commerce OF the west and south,
but will be Of great benefit to the nation at
large.
l would also be pleased to know that those
people who were interested In the improvement
OF the port of Galveston add their effort TO the
work in behalf OF the port of Savannah as a
recognition of the national aid given to the port
OF Galveston by the citizens Of the west and OF
the South Atlantic states
Therefore Earnestly request those senators
and representatives from my own state, and all
who recognize the importance Of improved
commercial facilities, to aid the senators and
representatives from Georgia in their efforts to
secure an ample appropriation from congress
with which to complete the work already begun
upon the river and harbor at Savannah, Ga.

an adequate appropriation for this purpose will
be doing great service to the country at large.
