To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:

1t represents to be the proceedings of the
last meeting of the State Board of Health,
and also gives a statement attributed to
me. / wish to positively deny and brand
false this campaign matter. 1 will re-
view only one point. In head lines the
Sentinel says: "Durbin is scored by the
State Health Board for his refusal to aid
in fighting smallpox" There is not the
slightest basis for this utterance. To three
or four questions as to whether this subject
was before the board / very emphatically
answered no. Yet there was no hesitation
on the part of the reporter to state other
wise. The whole account as given is gar
bled and deliberately built up out of de-
tached sentences drawn from conversation
which did not remotely refer to Governor
Durbin. The statements are false and
outrageous, and were plainly put forth as
campaign stuff j. n. HURRY.

 The enterprising capital of Lee County offered to furnish the grounds with all the necessary buildings and cash bonus of $1, 900, an offer that was regarded as very liberal by the officers who were present. Selma was also an active bid der, but her representatives were not au- thorzed at this time to make definite cash offer for the camp. They asked for further time and assured the conference that Selma would put up the amount needed to bring the camp.
 The conference was called by Col. E. IT. Graves commandcr Of the End, to con slider the approaching camp, the encamp- ment deficit of last year and other mat tors of importance to the 2nd All the companies of thr regiment were repre- scnted except Tuscaloosa and Demopolis.

encampment at Eufaula last summer Colonel Graves explained that all three regiments of the Alabama National Guard had deficits from the last eneamp- ment because the State appropriation was not sufficient to cover the transpor alton charges and expenses of the three regi- ments with their present enrolment.
 In a few minutes sufficient money had been subscribed to pay the debt.
 Colonel Graves announced to the con- ference that he desired to ascertain the sentiment of the regiment as to the pia ce Of the next camp. Before taking a vote, he said that representatives of three cities desired to be heard. Capt J. D. Elliott said that he wanted to tell the conference that Birmingham desired to have the next camp He was not prepared at this time to make cash offer. but he wanted Bir- mingham's claims considered. as good offer would be made from that city if there was any chance of securing the camp.
 Major l. N. Stowe announced that he had a business like offer to make from Opelika. That city would furnish the necessary buildings for the camp. prepare the grounds and give Si,0O0. He thought that the drill grounds would give all the room needed for the regiment.
 Major Earnest Carter of Selma present. cd an invitation to the 2nd regiment to camp at Selma signed by 125 of the busi- ness men of that city. He said that he did not know how much cash Selma would give, but he knew that the city would give as much as was necessary to secure the camp.
 Superintendent Hall of the Selma Street Car system said that his company would give tine camp grounds spIendidly located at Eldale Park and considered an ideal location for camp, build all the ncces= sary buildings. transport the regiment ard its baggeg from the depot to the grounds free of charge. The street car company proposed to do this alopo. The city would without doubt give liberal cash bonus for the camp. A vote showed that the officers were in favor of Selma.
 Leutenant-C Colonel May stated that af- ter a conference with Q1artermaster R. l., Holt, he was authorized to say that the expense of transporting the regiment to Selma and to Opelika would be prac- tically tine same. whiie it would cost a great deal anore to carry is to Birming- ham. Colonel May. Major Brickcn and Captain Baber were appointed a commit tee of three to investigate the claims of different cities for the camp and to report to Colonel Graves. The action of the committee and of the officers will be only advisory. the Governor and the Adiutant- General naming the city where the camp is to be held
 On motion of Captain Dickey. the same committee was instructed to prepare and have published resolutions in honor of the late Capt. Charles X. Allen.
 A number of routine questions affecting tho rcgmnt came up for discussion and settlement.

 The seeptre was the emblem of power, As the silver wand SD familiar in cathe- drals. was once hollow containing the '-virge" or rod with which ehastisement was inflicted upon the ehoristers and younger members of the foundation, so the royal sceptre represented the right to inhlct punishment.
