show his good will towards the Jews in

tinis, president Of the Jewish community
in Athens. His majesty's government
has also shown its friendly feelings by

eighty-five pound rail is about the

FavOrS the Army Canteen.

"The temperance women of Amer
lea should have realized the nature
of the fight they were waging against
the army canteen when they saw the
help and the money furnished in their
fight to abolish the canteen by the
liquor dealers.
No words you could put in my
mouth are too strong, and words
are inadequate to express my senti-
ments on this question"
These We're the statements of Com
mander-in-Chief James Tanner of the
Grand Army OF the Republic when
seen in Denver by the Denver Post
representative and asked his senti-
ments in regard to the fight made
on the canteen by the w. C. T. L.
and other temperance organizations.
Il have just returned from Cali
fornia, where I made an inspection
and visit TO the Soldiers home at
Yontville. The canteen has been
abolished there and in the past year
eleven veterans of the Civil war have
died inthe saloons in the village of
Yontyille, which is nothing but a
hamlet of saloons. They went the
saloons to get drink when they
could not get their beer at the home
and took more than they would have
taken in the home canteen. They sat
around the saloons and the drink
and exposure were too much for them
on account of their years
. IN Washington the liquor deal
ers were fighting shoulder to shoulder
with the Temperance women for the
bill and the women Of the country
should have realized their fight when
they had such allies. Men want
beer or whisl1ey and at the canteen
drinking TO excess was not allowed.
In the saloons the saloon keepers are
interested in having the men spend
all the money they have and are glad
to have them do it.
THE army officers tell me that the
same difficulty has come up in SON
neetion with the military reservations
and that disreputable dives have
sprung up all around the posts. They
say there hase been more drunken
ness in the army since the abolition
of the canteen than was known while
Il was in existence and have the sta
tistics to prove this.
Il like Denver without her holi-
day garb and always have" said

The total admission recorded at
