The Lee County Preachers Association

This body met in the Baptist church
in Sherman, Thursday, April 6, 1905,
at a. m. and continued in session un-
til after the night service. Present
Revs. r. A. Kimbrough, Pres. G..
Kingsly Marshall, Sec'y; S. P. Pryor
C. K. Marshall, T. w. Lewis and Mr..
Price.
The citizens of Sherman irrespective
of UNCONVENTIONAL affiliation opened
their hearts and homes to the preachers
and attended all the services of the
Association. 1t was a delightful oc-
casion and it emp hasized two points:
First, that all the religious denomina-

level upon which to work; and second
the spirit of genuine fraternity abounds.
The next session will be held in the
Cumberland Presbyterian church in
Verona, June / beginning at 10 o'clock.

is what we want. Let temperance

divided we fall"
Mr.. Owen P. Kellar makes a
keen comment in some OF our
newspapers on the last annual re-
port of the Surgeon General of the
army. This report shows that
during the past year 265 less SOL
diers per thousand were sent to
the hospital than during the pre-
ceding year. The Judge Advocate
General makes like report show
ing a decrease of 1926 in the mum.
Der of trials by court'martial.
Brig. Gen. Frederick D. Grant
asserted not long ago that the
army sis steadily improving; they
have better habits, there is less
drunkenness and they have higher
ideals" And now Mr.. Kellar
pointedly says: "With the officers
reporting SO much Improvement in
the army in health, morals and
discipline, the demand for the
restoration of the canteen sounds
ridiculous" 1t certainly does, and
all fair-minded thinkers will ad-
nit it.
Down with Morrell, or any
other Representative who has the
cheek to introduce into any Con-
gress such a bill as he has intro
duced into the Pennsylvania legis,
lature. Does he ask that the bill
be passed because it will do good,
because it will help some? Nay,
verify. How does his bill read,
the assertions in it, when COM
pared with the report of the Sur
geon' General or the Judge Advo.
cate Generals report or the lam
guage of Frederick D. Grant, Brig
adler Gederal of our army, who
ought to know?
In another item we notice that
the Army and Navy League, made
up mostly of the wives of the off,
GERS, have adopted resolutions ur-
ging congress to pass the bill.
1t further adds that "it is being
vigorously fought by temperance
people," which goes to prove that
these women are not TEMPERANCE
people.
Several years ago 80 women
formed a crusade and went from
place to place where liquor was
sold and by means of bible read
ing, and hymns, and prayers, over.
came the liquor devil in the towns.
They marched to saloon by de-
tachments and knelt down at the
doors and prayed Gods influence
would work upon the hearts and
consciences of them that sold the
degrading stuff-prayed that they
would be touched. God answered
the prayers, many of those who
sold this damning fluid knock

hio, or in the immediate neighborhood;
the construction of the Gamboa dam to
be required in thi sinstance the same
as i'm the siXty-foot-level plan.
The fourth plan would be the con-
struction of a sea level canal, with q
tidal lock at Miralores. In this con-
nection it is necessary to explain that,
while the mean sea level of the Pacific
and the Caribbean is the same, high
tide in the Bay of Panama rises ten
feet above the mean sea level and falls
ten feet below; whereas the fuctuation
of the tide of the Caribbean at Colon
is less than two feet. The construction
of dam at Gamboa, with the neces-
sary spillways, as noted in the previous
plan, would be the same under the, sea
level plan as under the thirty or sixty
foot level.
The construction of the Gamboa dam
would provide the water supply for the
entire line of the canal, including the
cities of Panama and Colon. 1t would
also provide a power plant for the gem
Grafton of electric power sufficient to
furnish ample power for the operation
of the Panama railroad and for the op-
Grafton of any machinery that might
be used in the construction of the canal.
1t would require two years to con-
struct this dam, and roughly estimat-
ed, its cost, including spillways, would
be between $l5,O00,00O and SIG, 900. 900, not
including the power plant.
ESTIMATES OF COST.
Taking the estimate of the former
commission of 5000, OOO, 900 for a ninety
foot-level canal as a basis, Mr.. Wal
lace thought the siXty-foot-level canal
would cost S226Otv,OOO, could be open
for traffic in ten years and fully COM
pleted in twelve years; the thirty-foot
level would cost $3.50, 100000, open for
traffic in twelve years and fully COM
