CAMP CHRISTENED
Local Organization of Veterans of
go Named After Sibo-
ney Bay.
SCENE OF COMMON EXPERIENCES
Charter Closed With Membership OF
44-Omcers Arc
Elected.

Siboney Bay camp is the name that
was given the local organization of
Educational Association of Spanish
American War Veterans formed in
Company AS quarters at the armory
last night. The new camp starts out
with membership of II and tho fol-
lowing roster of officers:
Commander-W. T. Channon.
Senior Vice Commander - F. l..
Tubbs.
Junior Vice Commander-E. Lund-
berg.
Adjutant-F. c. Downs.
Quartcrmaster-G. W. Flood.
Chaplain-Arthur Graham.
Officer of the Guard-JOhn Schmidt.
Officer of the Day-John w. Carse.
Col. KIttIIsen Advises.
The meeting last evening was pre-
sided over by Maj. Channon and +. c.
Downs acted as temporary secre-
tary. Lieut. Col. Ed Kittilscn.
of Moline, commander of the camp in
that city. was present and explained
the objects of the association and the
method of Pcrfecting an organiza-
ton. The rolls were then signed, all
resented in the membership, and the
charter was closed.
After the election of officers the
selection of name was taken up.
Many were in favor of honoring Maj.
Channon in the choice of Il title, but
that gentleman objected and urged
that some name be selected if pos
siblc representing a place or object
of common interest TO both the sol
dicrs and sailors. After a great deal
of discussion Siboney Bay was
thought of, and, meeting with favor,
was adopted.
Name Is Suggestive.
Siboncy Bay ought TO he sufficiently
suggestive. to both branches to add
strength to the camp. Siboncy. it
may he said in explanation, is over
the mountains from Santiago on the
south coast Of Cuba. and it was there
the United States flSC5 conferred dur
ing the long days and nights of
watching AT the mouth of santiago
harbor. There is really no bay there
and the ships could not anchor, but
kept moving necessarily, going out
to sea at night to avoid collision.
\ number of the members of the
local naval reserves saw service
there. and il was there that the
greater part of the 9th Illinois, in
GLIDING Company \. OF this city, and
Company +, of Moline, was brought
preparatory to landing Just at the
time of the capitalization of Santiago.
The transports lay there about Il
week before being finally removed to
Guantanamo bay preparatory to
moving on Porto Rico. The name Is
particularly suggestive to members
of Company y on account of Siboney
having been the first place where a
semblance of real war was witnessed
and where the first intimate ac-
quaintance was gained with the pc
cularities of tropical climate.
Adjutant Downs was instructed to
write for charter for the new
camp. and an adjournment was taken
subject to the call of the commander,
with the understanding that another
meeting will be held when the char
ter arrives

President Will Not In
tePfere.

Washington, Aug. 14.-President
Roosevelt has refused to prohibit a
federal Official from holding munich
pal Office. The Municipal Reform as
sociation of Philadelphia recently call
ed the attention of the president TO-
the fact that william McCoach, col
lector OF internal revenue at that place,
Is member of the upper or select
branch Of the city council, and cited a
precedent established by President
Grant, when an employe of the Phil
adelphia mint WAS required to resign
municipal Office in support Of the
claim that Collector McCoach could
not hold two Offices, one federal ana
the other state.
The papers were referred to the
secretary of the treasury, who made a
report to the president. Today the
Municipal Reform association was in
formed that the president would not
interfere. Collector McCoach does not
receive salary from the city and. II
is expected that he will not be a cand'-
date for reelection when his term ex-
pires next April. 4,
Pennsylvania is one of the few states
without a statute prohibiting an off,
Ger of the state from accepting a fed

after the close of the war there are
more pensioners than ever before.
The number lacks only 674 Of being
round million. This was an In
crease Of 1927 since 1899. The ex-
perts say 1t is the highwater mark
and from now on the increasing death
rate will decrease the pension list.

congress has rallied to the rescue OF

Clash Not I'm min ent.

The apprehension manifested by
some newspaper writer's that clash
NAV occur between American and Ger
man marines at Barcelona, Venezuela,
has little foundation. Evidently the
Americans and Germans are there with
the same purpose-to protect citizens
against the rebels who are fighting
against the recognized government.
While there may be some feeling be-
tween the two countries, 1t is not suf-
ficient for trained soldiers to so far
forget themselves as. to be guilty Of
any indiscretions that might involve
the two countries in war.
While Germany has expressed con-
tempt for the Monroe doctrine, she
observes its provisions TO a nicely.
The visit of Prince Henry to the United
States. the reception he met and the
impressions made upon him as to the
vastness and resources of the repub-
lld are in themselves guarantee
against any overt act upon the part
of the marines Of the empire.
Since the control of the South Amer
ican states has been wrested from
Spain and other continental countries,
1t is not likely that any nation or
combination of powers in Europe
would care to attempt to reinstate
themselves on this side of the At
lantic.
