The Southern Presbyterian saws.

The Southern Presbyterian says:
The South leads in the practical temperarco
work. 1t has the largest growth in temncrance
sentiment. Under the operation Of local option
laws large districts, some almost entire States
have been delivered from the saloon In the
Northern States we have suffered from enormous
influx OF immigrants in the last few years. which
mas greatly increased the consumption Of Gouors
and the power of the saloon. The general senti-
ment against the liquor business is increasing. and
we look Tor increasingly good results year by year.

WILL Be MAJOR GENERAL 0FMAR|NEs
George F. Elliott, Commandant Of
to Higher Rank.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June IA
General George F. Elliott, the COM
mandant of the marine corps, will
probably be made major general, at
least a provision to this effect is con-
tanned in the naval bill as it has been
reported from the naval committee
General Elliott has been urging the
department to give the commandant
the rank of major general on the
ground that he commands officers and
men which exceed that ordinarily I'M
der the control of a major general in
the army; and with the additions
which have been made to the marine
corps, together with the responsible
ties devolving upon the commandment
of that branch, it is agreed that the
request for an advance of rank is JUS
tilted. At the same time the provision
in the bill is so worded that it would
give the present Incumbent the rank
of major general and to his successors
only the rank of brigadier general.
