The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1903-05-12
BY R. NJ. Larner

Washington, May n.-Grover Cleve-
newspaper men at st. Louis recently
has been generally alluded to in all the
newspapers of the country. The St.
Louis papers, with one or two excep-
tons, made but general mention of
the banquet, and the substance of Mr.
Cleveland's remarks to the represen-
tatives of the press. One of the after
noon papers, in an extra edition, print
ed almost a verbatim report of his
speech on that occasion. Even that
paper omitted some of the best points
in Mr.. Cleveland's speech.
While making his confession, as he
termed it, that he had been misunder-
stood by the newspaper men while in
public life, and also that he had mis-
understood them, he went on to allude
with little tinge of irony, and at the
same time preserving good humor all
the way through to several instances
where he had been brutally maligned
by certain newspapers. For instance,
he said
Il once heard of man being ac-
cused of getting drunk and beating his
wife. Now there was, no doubt, some
slight foundation for that report. l
happen to know that that man was on
more than one occasion, seen by his
friends and relatives, with his arm
around his wifes neck" daughter
There was a merry twinkle in Mr..
Cleyelands eye as he went on to say:
q also know that that man ocea-
aonally. took drink. sometimes TIVE
or more drinks If he wanted them. and
believed he takes drink to-day when
he feels the need of it"
These little personal illusions which
were under stood by all present, were
delivered with the utmost good humor
and with just enough good-natured
sarcasm to create considerable merri-
ment around the board.
AS Mr.. Cleveland took his seat, he
was given a demonstration and the
newspaper boys around the board sang
that Well-knoWn campaign chorus:
Grover, Grover, four more years OF
Grover"
When quiet was restored, big-voiced
member of the Gridiron Club present,
arose and solemnly proposed that in
view OF the humble confession just
made by the most distinguished pri-
yate citizen in the world, that he be
forgiven" The motion was seconded
and Secretary Walter Stevens, who
was acting as POSTMASTER, put the
question and the motion was carried
with a whoop.
To keep up the humor of the occa-
sion, POSTMASTER Stevens then called
on Senator Mark Hanna, who is a
great favorite with the newspaper men
at Washington. Mr.. Hanna went on
to say that he had no confessions TO
make to the Washington newspaper
men and no apologies to make to them.
1t did not take me long, he added,
TO reach an understanding with the
members of the Gridiron Club and the
Washington correspondents generally.
1t did not require eight years of public
life in Washington for me 10 under
stand and comprehend the mission OF
the representative newspaper men OF
the country" This little retort, which
was evidently aimed at Mr.. Cleveland,
was made in Senator Hanna's good
natured way, and no one seemed to
enjoy the little incident more than Mr..
Cleveland.

AEFAIRS AT EMORY,

Struggle to he Settled.

StruBBle 10 lie settled.
Emory College, Oxford, Ga, May IL.
The political controversy between the
fraternity and non-fraternity men of
the college, which grew out of the re-
cent elections of Phoenix editors, and
which seemed for a while as if it would
eliminate in a serious encounter, now
gives promise of being amicably ad-
justed. 1t seems assured that an I'M
Outstanding Will be reached, which will
be mutually satisfactory.
representatives from the fraternities
met the representatives of the non-fra-
ternlty men Friday and submitted an
ultimatum. Ii was suggested by the
fraternlties that constitutional amend
ments be made in both Few and Phi
Gamma literary and debating societies,
Whlch would provide for a committee
composed of members of the faculty,
whose duty it should be to decide the
places on the champion debates and
SIX editors on the Phoenix staff. The
amendment as proposed was submitted
to the two societies, but, was defeated
by substantial majority. 1t seems
therefore that the only effective means
for the fraternities is to withdraw en-
masse from enc of the societies and
centralize all their forces in the other.
By this means the fraternities will OBJ
tain majority in one of the societies,
and can they efore control the elections
in that society, while the non-frater-
nifty men will have their way in the
other. This will give each faction con-
troll in one Of the societies.
On Monday some twenty-five or thir-
ty fraternity men will be taken into
Phi Gamma Society and those who are
now members of Few will withdra w,
thus leaving things equally divided be-
tween the fraternity and non-frater-
nifty men.
The class of 1909 has completed its
work and has only now to stand the
final examinations before its forty
three members will be numbered as

"A Modern Hospital That Is Fast

I Very soon TOW the claim may truthfully be made for Bisbee that we have the best hospital in the territory
 The Copper Queen company is very considerate of it's employees who are strong and well, and it intends to be doubly so with those who may happen to be i'll or receive injuries.
 The splendid new hospital, now un- der construction, will be amply fitted with, every modern device. intended for the comfort and benefit of those who may pass under the phgsician's care. The structure is progressing nicely and these who have it's cree tiou in charge anticipate that it will be ready for occupancy on October Is.
 The building Is two stories high by 10sxI15 feet on the ground; has four large wards on the first floor with capacity for fourteen patients each. On this floor also are the administrative rooms, and two oper- ating rooms, which will be equipped with the most up-to-date appliances procurable and suited for the purpose. On the second fodr are twenty-sax private wards. and the building will be heated by steam and supplied with twelve hose reels for fire protection.
 The framing has been of a heavy class, making the building firm and the distinctive feature of the struct ure will be the excellence of the ven. l. tilation system which will enable a | complete change of air in all the rooms each hour or so, and the walls are so constructed as to insure maxi
 mum cooIness in Summer. The rooms all have the corners rounded to ia cilitate cleaning

Colonel Brigham on Federal Aid.

Colonel J. II. Brigham. Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture, in a recent
speech at a good roads convention,
said:
Il see no reason why the general
Government should not appropriate Il
certain sum of money TO be expended
in this great work. Or course the
States. counties and local communities
should be expected TO cooperate. y
little aid from the general Government
would be a wonderful encouragement
to all the people.
II hear n number Of speakers here
SAYING that we must stir up Congress.
Now | want To impress YOU with the
idea that we must first educate the
people. When the people are in favor
of national aid in building good roads,
congressman will hc in favor Of it,
and not until then. They are not
going ahead Of the people.
"Whcn one Of these great popular
movements gets started. it acquires
wonderful momentum once let the
good roads movement get thoroughly
started and nothing will be able to
stop it. or stand before it, till lis great
work is done.

Government should not reach out its
strong arm and help the people of this
country get better means of c"mmuni-
cation. ! want 10 see the movement
pushed with all III" energy that is
