Try TO SAVE
POETS Tomb

NEW YORK, Oct. 16. - The
American Scenic and Historic Pres
ervation society has taken the pre-
liminary steps to establish a park
in the Bronx to preserve the grave
of Joseph Rodman Rrake, author
of lode to the American Flag"
THE Culprit Fay" and other
poems. An appeal has been made
to the city authorities and to the
public in general and it is expected
that the required funds will be
forthcoming. The site will be COM
pletely obliterated by a projected
street unless the park is created.
The poets grave is one of about
sixty in Hunts graveyard on
Hunts Point. The cemetery is
filled at present with bushes and
wild growths of all kinds. Half
the gravestones are broken, some
are upside down, and others are
propped up against trees or other
gravestones.

The United States government
should not encourage drinking
among its soldiers by permitting
liquor to be sold in their very
midst. Many young men have taken
their first drink in the army can
teen, and thus begun a downward
career. The canteen attracted them
at a time in their lives when the
low dive outside the post would
have repealed them, but after while
the coarsening effect of liquor
drinking rendered them fit subjects
for the lowest places.
The United States should protect
the interests of the country with
as much care and intelligence as
are bestowed by the railroad cor
porations upon their business. In
other words, 1t would not be incon-
sistent for the United States gov
eminent to require total abstinence
Of the soldiers while under it's pay.
The low dives outside the army
posts, of which we hear SO much,
have not increased in number since

B|CSUCCESS

The Spokane Interstate Fair as
ISOLATION made about $4,000 this
year and all concerned are de-
lighted over this fact and the add.
tional one that the entire city has
been greatly benefited by this
years exhibition.
The grand total of paid admis'
sions was oG,026 and the money
taken nabout $4,000, or nearly
$1,000 more than last year. The
fair association is about $40 900 in
debt, SO at the beginning of next
year the fair will start out on an
even basis.
The business men of the city all
state the fair was a grand success
from their standpoint and that they
will be glad when the next fair
week comes around.

MRS. MEYERS AND
MODERN WO0pMEN

Before Judge Carey today the
trial of the action brought by Alpha
Myers, widow of Ed. Myers, against
the Modern Woodmen of America
was commenced. The case has at
tracted much attention in fraternal
benefit circles. The defendant
gives as the reason for not paying
the death policy of Mr.. Myers that
he was under suspension according
to the established rules of the
order.

the abolition of the canteen, but
more attention has been called to
them. 1t would be we'll If those
army officers who approve of the
canteen would direct some of their
energies toward removing these
dives, and it would also be well
for them to use their authority in
securing better discipline among
the soldiers than prevails in some
sections, according to their own
statement.
1t is gratifying to all true friends
of the soldiers that the United
States congress has made generous
appropriations to supply to the SOL
diers desirable amusements and
comforts such as were supplied to
some extent from the profit Of
liquor sold in the army canteen.
The lessons of the Russian-Jap-
anese war amply prove the advan-
tages to the soldier of abstinence
from strong drink. we nave no re-
liable testimony from any unpre-
JUDGED source to show that any
harm has come to the United States
army because of the removal of
the canteen. The present discus
sion is largely confined to those on
one side who believe that it is no
harm to drink and to those on the
other side who believe that drink
ing causes intemperance and that
"intemperance causes greater loss
of life than war, pestilence and
famine combined"
