the thrilling strains of Dixie" that
oft had cheercd them on to victory or

wore the gray marched Friday in
proud review before thousands of
people gathered in Kentuckys chief

There was net much in the way of
formation and order in the line as far
as the old boys were concerned. but
they marched with sparkling eye to
the OLD tunes, and heard the same
cheers that have stirred their blood
annually since the reunions became a
part OF life in the South. lIany OF
the captured battle flags, recently re-
turned by the government, We're car
ried in Fridays parade and were the
objects of interest and veneration.

PRO. EST TO THE PRESIDENT
Delegation From the American hsiatic
Association Presents a Memorial to
the Chief Executive.

Washington. Special.-A delegation
from the American Asiatic Associa-
ton called on President Roosevelt
Monday and protested against the al
legged seventies OF the administration
OF the present Chinese exclusion laws.
The ultimate purpose OF the delegation
In which North Carolina was liberally
represented. was to secnre such condi-
tlons as would facilitate and enlarge
the trade Of American cotton mills i'm
the orient. The claim was made that
the present laws are altogether too rig
idly enforced and Chinese capital and
merchants are prevented from coming
to America to trade
A MEMORIAL PRESENTED.
A memorial. adopted unanimously
by the entire delegation was present.
ed to President Roosevelt by John
Ford. OF New York. secretary of the
American Asiatic Association The
memorial recited not only that Chi
nese merchants were harassed by the
present exclusion statutes. but the law
was being even more than literally ar
Piled. The legal regulations are now
so stringently construed by the Depart
ment that many influential Chinese
who are entitled to visit America. are
Kept out of the country. The conse-
quence is that factories in the United
states are placed at DISADVANTAGE
In the competition for the trade of the
orient. The memorial admitted that
there was warrant IN the wording of
the law for what is being done. but
contended strongly that the enforce
ment OF the present statutes was in the
hands of the labor union element and
was not executed in the interest OF
the American citizens The memorial
closed in the following words:
The members of this deleCation
feel confident that they will not appeal
to You in vain in asEin, that remedy
should be sought for the anomalous
and unsatisfactory condition of the ex-
listing relations between this country
and the Chinese Empire. The probable
disastrous effects on tiiei. interests
and the interests of industries for
which they speak. of n longer contin-
uance of conditions must be their ex
cuse for the urgency and emphasis
which they have taken the liberty TO
use in inviting your attention to the
subject"
THE PRESIDENTS VIEWS.

this was matter which had to some

ant On E. F. Allgood's farm, joined the
Shutdown Farmers CO. operative Union
last year, being o man of his word,
when the Union took the firm stand to
hold cotton for 10 cents, Mr. Banks
stood by his word and in less than GO
days cleared more than $500. on %
bales, while some of the land owners
forfeited their pledge, and when cot
ton was. s cents, they Eold out and
when it reached 10 cents in a few days,
they felt like going out behind the
barn and hiring a jack ass to kick
them, and it still hurts them to see
what O. fool they made OF themselves
by not heing mon e3 their word.
Now the way to get our own price
for Gotten, is to build warehouses suffl-
ciens to stors one.third of our cotton,
then we will get o good price fer the
other two-thirds, and almost any price
for the remaining one-third.
=, The interest on Bonks' $500 he made
by sticking to his word, will pay his
dues in the Union for all times, and
handsome dividend, besides more
