This organization was established in the
United States fourteen years before the
republican party and twenty-seven years
before the prohibition party. and its infiu-
ence for total abstinence and prohibition
along moral suasion lines probably has ex-
ceeded that of any other organization In
American history.
I'VE may not get the credit for it. but
when we consider that men or women VINO
once become imbued with our beauttful
initiatory ceremony never are satisfied out

recesses of their hearts forever, we cannot
estimate the influences that have been set
to work and gathered momentum during
the sixty-four years of our existence.
I'VE are undoubtedly entitled to much OF
the credit for the general awakening among
the people on the subject of temperance,
and while we do not resolute and resolute

LAW TO BE TESTED.
Objections to the Laying Of Grano-
lithic Sidewalks in HyattsviHe.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
EVANSVILLE, Md, September IL, 1906.
The legality of the late act of the leg
islature, authorizing the mayor and COM
mon council of Hyattsville to lay sidewalks
wherever in their judgment such work is
necessary, will probably be tested. The
mayor and council have just completed a
granolithic sidewalk on the north side of
Johnson avenue as far as the alley adjoin-
ing the residence of DR.. V. L. Perry, and
the improvement is regarded as one of the
most pronounced ever made in this town.
Monday evening the council held a spe-
cial meeting for the specific purpose of
passing an ordinance extending the side
walk to the corner of Wine avenue, or
throughout the entire length of Johnson
avenue, on the north side, and also for
similar walk on the south side of Johnson
avenue from Maryland to Wine avenue.
Messrs. ]. C. and ]. Harris Rogers, who
own considerable strip of land subject to
assessment, appeared before the council and
protested against the Improvement, on the
ground that there was no public demand
for the walk, and that only one property
owner on the south side favored it. Mr.
James c. Rogers in his statement declared
that, in his judgment, the legislature OF
Maryland had no authority to delegate to
the mayor and common council the right
to remove existing sidewalks and to con-
struct new ones at the cost of the abutting
property; that once the sidewalk was laid
and paid for by the property owners, there
could be no second assessment for new
sidewalks.
In view of Mr.. Rogers statement, Coun-
Gilman II. w. Shepherd moved that the
matter of the passage of the ordinance
be deferred until the towns attorney Mr.
Robert w. Wells, could be heard from
Mr.. Wells reported last night that, in his
judgment the legislature had power to
grant the authority to make assessments
for sidewalks. provided the council gives
proper notice as to their intentions, in order
that property owners affected could be
heard. Upon this advice, the council
on motion of Mayor Owens, who tempo
rarily vacated the chair, passed an ordi-
nance ordering the extension of the ex-
listing sidewalk TO the corner of Wine ave-
nue., and also the laying of a sidewalk
on the south side of Johnson avenue from
Maryland to Wine avenue.
The clerk to the council was directed to
notify the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company to remove its poles from
the line of the proposed sidewalk on the
south side.

that he is committing a crime against his
God. his country, his family and himself
by destroying his life by Indulgence in

do not find it necessary to abuse the men

and they will organize tent of our order

Mrs. Foote on the Order.
Mrs. Mary Foote, in writing to High
Chief Ruler CordeIl relative to the work Of
the Rechabftes. stated that she intended to
prepare something commencing the work
of the order. but had overlooked the date
Of the meeting. She concluded by saving:
But what important work 1t is! The whole
nation so little appreciates that its greatest
asset is character and that character is
SO largely. the result Of clean hygienic
habits. Also each individual little appre-
ciates that the strength and reputation of
the town and the country relates partly to
himself, and that his influence is ALWAYS

Delegate from Welcome Tent. No. 936.
B. Brown, commander-in-chief of the G. A.
R., delivered the address of welcome on be-
half of the city of GAINESVILLE and the state
of Ohio.
Gen. Brown said it afforded him the
greatest pleasure to welcome men and
women to Ohio who are engaged in the
great worl, of making higher grade of cit
izenship by inducing men to be sober and
making their homes happy. He predicted
success for the order of Rechabites, and
said he had been a temperance man since
1867, although he had never signed pledge
of any kind.
The response to Gen. Brown was by Capt.
j. Walter Mitchell, commander of the De-
partment of the District of Columbia,
