SPEECH
Of General Shaw not Pleasing
TO General Gordon.

ATLANTA, GA, JULY 20 General
John b. Gordon commander in chief of the
United Confederate Veterans, dsobeyed
his physicians orders, was present with
the other distinguished veterans at the
+ ue and Gray Veterans barbecue this
afternoon and sat side by side with Cen
eral Albert ID. shaw, commander in chief
of the Grand Army of the Republic All
the invited guests made speeches., but the
second on the rogram that of General
Shaw did not Please General Gordon, and
for a time reconciliation was forgotten
General Shaw's speech was for the most
part conciiatory in tone and was wen
received, yet his reference TO the manner
in which memories of the great struggle
should be blotted out in the families of
the South was not received in the man
ner hoped for. In his speech he uttered
these words 'What I am anxious to see
is the disappearance Of all unworthy
reminders Of tn terrible conflict and th1
culture of present unity and righteousness
over all the union. There can now be
but one ideal Of American citizenship.

At the close Of General Shaws speech
General Gordon came forward. He had
spoken before and his appearance again
caused considerable of a surprise. The
enthusiasm quieted instantly. General
Gordon said he could not teach his child
rem that he fought for what was wrong
He had battled for what he though
was right and "only the judgment day
and God himself will ever decide who was
right"

crew won.
c. S. Titus of New Dreams won the
second heat of the association singles
The other starter, James Bend, suit at
the mile post.
The intermediate eight-oared shells
was the best race of the day. Fol~
crews, the Dauntless if New York, NAL
tas and Fairmounts of PhiladelphiS
and the Potomacs of Washington
started. After passing the quarter mile
mark the Dauntless assumed the lead
and gained at every stroke, crossing
the line five lengths ahead of the Fair
mounts, the Maltas being third.
The heat of the Paris fours were
perhaps the most peculiar race seen
at championship meeting. The Ves-
pers and the Institutes were the only
starters. At the crack of the pistol the
Vespers went to the front and at the
half mile weer eight lengths ahead or
their rivals Then the Institutesbegan
TO gain and inch by inch overhauled
the eladers. The Vespers, however.
stuck to their work and by sheer
plugging crossed the line two feet
ahead of the Institutes.

DAUNTLESS
Wins First Homo 5 at National
Il, gatta.

NEW YORK, JULY 20.-The second
day Of the national regatta over the
Speedway course on the Harlem river
was productive of some excellent oars
manship and the sport generally was OF
higher class than on the opening day.
The weather was fine but strong breeze
directly against the crews, and at times
the water, where not sheltered, was
rough.
The first event was the Paris singles,
in which Rumohr, Ten Eyck and Titus
started. Ten Eyck and Rumohr caught
the water together. For the first minute
both rowed forty strokes and their shells
were bow and bow. After this Ten Eyck
forged ahead and, as Titus was well in
the rear, began to wear over toward Ru-
mohr's water and gave him the benefit
of his wash. Thus they rowed for a
quarter Of a mile, when Ten Eyck drew
away a little more and was directly in
front of Rumohr's bow.
At this point Rumohr spurted. The
shells seemed to touch, and Rumohr
raised his hand claiming a roul Rumohr
stopped rowing, but on seeing the refer
ee's boat did not slacken speed, rowed
on and finishedtwo and one-half lengths
behind Ten Byck
The referee, Walter Simpson, when
asked to explain why Ten Eyck was not
disqualified said. There may have been
foIl, but did not see." Had the ref
cree decided that Ten Eyck fouled Ru-
mohr the race would have been rowed
over again, for the regatta committee
long ago decided that none of the Paris
races could be decided on fouls.
The Crescent boat clup or Philadelphia
won the second trial heat of the inter
mediate double scul event by three
lengths from the Nonpareils of New
York, with the Atantas third.
The Wachusett boat club of Worces-
ter, Mass.,a the Vespers of Phila-
delphia withdrew from the senior fours
and it was rowed in one heat, the
starters being the Detroit boat club
of Detroit, Institute boat club of New
ark, N. j., and the Jeffres Point row

LET us cherish the memories" contin-
ued General Gordon, =" and history will
record in heaven that both sides were
right in fighting for what they believed
was right Let us settle once and for
all this question on a basis commensur-
ate with the sides engaged in this great
struggle; let us settle it on a basis on
that immaculate truth that both sides
were fighting for the constitution of their
forefathers."
General Shaw responded gracefully to
the generals exception. He stated that
he had prepared his speech with care
and much of the material therein was
gained from speeches made by General
Gordon in the North.
"Our children should be taught" said
General Shaw, "the true glory and sub
will teach them this. Let them be so
alike the childrn of the North and Of the
South, that no difference will percepti-
ble."
The incident closed with three cheers
for the blue and the gray

Albert d. Shaw, General John B. Gordon,

In a speech delivered at Baton
Rouge, La, a few days ago, Can
didate Bryan made the assertion
that ''the plain people are the
only class that would die for their

views are too narrow for an Am

which has proven to the world
that in matters of war and nation

To Think About,

The fellow who goes to the train
earliest does not always get away first.
Girls who get married are called
accomplished, even If they can't bake
bread.
When a mans collar button comes
in pieces at church it does not i'm
prove his spiritual condition.
When man sells his home, every
body wonders if it is mortgaged.
Don't give up bill for lost. The
fellow may get married and make it
good.
Ask some men how they feel and
they will entertain you for an hour
with their woes.
It takes some nerve to select one of
two BARRIERS when both are idle.
Even a woman has no use for a man
who sits around the house in the af-
ternoon.
ESome people do not enjoy a. nice
winter day for fear it will cause a late
spring.
Nobody considers a newspaper or a
pipe private property.

criminately buying licenses for
saloons in that city. This is a
wise idea and one that can be
adopted in all the range towns by
the authorities. 1t is q well known
fact that saloon proprietors who
''put up" their own $1,000 or $500,
run more orderly places than those
for whom the breweries pay and
who have all to gain and nothing
to lose. Another matter that the
Ely council could proftably look
into is the matter of saloon bonds
men. There are mighty few of
our citizens who can qualify in
the sum of $4,000 above all eXemp-
tons and liabilities, yet there are
twenty-five saloons here with two
bondsmen each. A strange fact
in all the towns is that those who
can qualify as required on bond
are very seldom found thereon.

SEVERAL of the Sixth district
papers are advising Page Morris
to stay in Washington and not
come home to explain. We join
in the chorus and stick by the old
saying that distance lends en-
chantment." However, when he
comes, we sincerely hope he will
not further middle things by an
explanation. If he voted accord
ing to his views on the Porto
Rican question, no explanation is
necessary and if he voted opposite
to his convictions, an explanation
will do him no good.

Caucus Committee.

The nomination of the Hon. O.
Kinney on the Republican ticket
for Congress is something more
than a bare possibility. Mr.. Kin
ney has many admirers in, the
southern counties of the Sixth dis
trict and as far as the northern
end is concerned it is almost a GER
tainty that he could carry the
delegations. If the feeling of
the voters in Ely are any criterion
of the feeling in other districts,
the chances of Congressman
Morris denomination are indeed
slim. Window is working up
quite following in the Zenith
City and j. Adam Bede is an ay-
owed candidate with lively pros
poets. In order to Offset the
contending factions it does seem
proable that a dark horse will be
rushed into the field, and that O.
ID. Kinney is the man most talked
af at present. Notwithstanding
all the anti-Morris talk in the
Sixth district at present, the
Republicans may yet unite on him
as the proper man, but we doubt
it. Some seem to be of the i'm
preston that should St. Louis
county not stand solidly by Morris,
some man in the southern end
would secure the nomination and
thus Duluth and the county would
lose the prestige it now holds with
the administration. This may be
all very well providing Morris can
be elected. There is no possible
excuse for nominating man and
then having him turned down, thus
losing the prestige already gained.
A decision should be made soon.
Mr.. Kinney has qualities sufficient
to fttingly represent this rich dis
trict and that he has backbone
enough to do SO properly, there is
no doubt. It is also our candid
opinion that he is no "nine SPOT
in the Congressional shuttle.
