RISES IN DEFENSE
Of THE UNIFORM.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

cEED4AL DlcfAIIh III 1dE GALL.
WASHINGTON. Aug. s.-Insults to
enlisted men Of the United States, who
wear the uniforms of soldiers, sailors
and marines, are becoming so frequent
that the Secretary of the Navy has de-
cided that something must be done to
punish civilians who discriminate
against the wearers of these uniforms.
The latest case that has been brought
TO the attention of Secretary Bonaparte
is that OF G. L. Pruide. Of the battle
ship Texas, who was refused a room
by Norfolk, Va, hotelkeeper, although
accommodations were furnished to
seamen who did not appear in their
uniforms, but wore civilian attire.
It has been the rule of Secretary
Bonaparte to protest vigorously against
determinations directed against en-
listed men on account of their uniforms.
Every possible effort TO bring up the
enlisted personnel of the navy has been
made and Secretary Bonaparte feels
it is wrong for proprietors OF public
places TO visit upon the enlisted men
of today the crimes of all their pre-
decessors in the navy, thus making 1t
practically impossible for jackies who
are behaving themselves to enjoy the
privileges TO which they are entitled.

LETTER ON GARBAGE
Hon. Lyme Startling,
Greenville, Miss.

Hon. Lyme Startling,
Greenville, Miss,
Dear Sir:-I acknowledge yours OF
the 5th and, in reply, would state that
1t IS hardly fair comparison to make
as regards the basis of profit for a
proposition like that of garbage re-
duction and general contracting. 1t
has required years of experimenting
and effort to bring this to workable
basis, and the very fact that it has
succeeded and that the process has
been protected, indicates that high
er rate of profit is expected and ne
cessary than in the case of local con-
tractors
Further, l do not think that the
bonus of $1,000 a year for the first
five years, together with remission OF
! taxes for the same period, is suffi-
cient. | would say that this bonus
should be $2,5oo year, and on this
basis it is possible that we might con-
slider the proposition sufficiently at
tractive to take it up, although I am
frank to say that an attempt to handle
| business SO far removed from us is
one exceedingly uncertain and pre-
carious
| think that you are in error as to
the difficulty liable to be encountered
IN securing proper person to take
charge of the plant 1t does not re-
quire an expert. Simply one quail
fed to handle machinery should BIZ
able to operate this plant successfully
and much morer economically than i
an expert in this line were employed
The process is simple, is entirely
automatic from the time the produc
is taken in until it emerges a finished
product.
| do not believe that we will b,
called upon to go to Memphis befor,
some time next month, as | under
stand that DIR. Raymond, the healtl
lofficer, will be in New York Cit,
durinv the entire month of November
When we go to Memphis we will b.
pleased to go over the matter witt
you personally at Greenvile
/ We thank you for your considera
ton of this proposition, and trus
that something beneficial to our mu
ltual interests will result.

The Big Sale at the Fair has drawn
out a big crowd and an enormous
business has been the result
No sale in the history of the city
has been better and more extensive
ly advertised and the crowds and
sales have fully justified the expense.
The Fair really intends, as adver-
tised, to close out the retail depart
ment of their store to make room for
their big wholesale stock and the
man or woman who fails to attend
this sale and secure some OF the big
bargains, is really losing money. The
sale will continue all the next week,
so get your dollars together and at
tend this sale where they go nearly
as far as a FIVE.

Greenville Times:

I GFeenNHie 1meS:
The clearest and most candid state
ment OF those opposed to adopting
the code provisions is presented by
the Letter OF Mr.. Lyme Startling, pub
lished on 18th inst. He is opposed to
dividing the city into wards and to
the election of the officers by direct
the code believe they are equally as
capable as the councilmen to decide
who shall be marshal, clerk, city as
/ SCISSOR. city treasurer. city tax collec-
tor and street commissioner If tho
voters are capable of electing good
men for councilnen and mayor, why
should they be supposed to be SO be-
nighted as to be incapable OF electing
the other officers referred to?
Take the case of Mr. Startling him.
self. He is councilman, elected by
the voters. He is a man of integrity,
Jealous in the performance of his pub
lie duties, striving earnestly to serve
the best interests of the city. From
whom did he get his commission to
serve his people? Why, from the
people themselves, Of course. And
these same people are just as cap
able of electing good marshals, and
good city clerks, and treasurers and
tax collectors as they are OF electing
good councilmen.
Is there anything peculiar or par
ticular about the words, mayor and
councilmen', which enable the voter
to open the eyes of reason and decide
intelligently when casting his vote for
these. and at the same time to be-
come blind and ignorant when he is
, to vote for other officers? II is not
so in our county elections. We divide
the county into wards and vote for a
member of the board OF supervisors
from each ward. This board IS, II.
a way, the legislative body Of the
county just as the councilmen are the
legislative body for the city, and the
argument which Mr. Startling presents
IN favor of the aldermen electing the
city officers would apply with equal
force to the board Of supervisors
electing the county officers. the sller-
| IF. the clerks, the treasurer. etc Yet
the voters of the county show some
glinmers Of intelligence in electine
their county officers and do it without
the aid of the board of supervisors
We have a good sheriff, a good treas
urer. Ask the lawyers who do bust
ness with them and they will all tell
you We have good clerks in both the
chancery and curcuit clerks offices.
Where did they get their commits
sions? By direct vote of the people.
who had the sense and the intelli-
gence to elect good men. Who will
say the board of supervisors could
have made better selections? They
could not have made selections nearly
so god. And are the voters of Green
vile of less intelligence and of less
integrity of purpose than those of the
county? l think not
Mr. Herman Wilczinski is a men,
ber of the board of supervisors, and
its president He is also a member
of the Greenvile board of aldermen.
He is a useful man in both positions,
but is he better qualified as an alder
man than the voters of Greenville
themselves to decide who shall be
marshal, tax collector or city clerk?
If SO, then he is better qualified as a
