MAKING PLANS FOR THE ENCAMPMENT
ADJUTANT GENERAL FUDGE WILL ARRIVE IN COLUMBUS MONDAY TO MAKE FINAL PLANS-MANY ADJUSTMENTS PROVIDED.

Columbus, Miss, July 9.-(Special.)-Ad- jutant General Fridge will arrive in Columbus next Monday and under his direction the work of laying off the en- campment grounds will be commenced. General Fridge will remain in this city until the encampment closes. He will take active charge of all arrangements just as soon as he reaches Columbus and announces that he will leave no step un- taken which will rake the encampment the biggest ana best the Mssissippi Ma tional Guar has ever held.
 The new street car company has shown quite an enterprising spirit and the new gene al manager will assist General Fridge in every possible way. The camp will pc located right on the car line about a mile from the central part of the town. The site selected is a high rolling tract with perfect drainage. It will be located right between the Gayety Holloway rink and the baseball grounds, distance of half q mile It will be about the same distance wide.
 General headquarters will be establish ed in the pavilion at Washington park Arrangements have been perfected for a baseball game every afternoon during the encampment The several teams in the Cotton States league have allowed the managers to change their programmes and switch their dates, so as to mako this possible. The pavilion at Lake park, one of the finest dancing places in the state, will be the scene of the dances and the rnl; will also be open to fur nish entertainment to all who care for this sport The rink is a new one, erect ed at cost of $10,0o0, and is one of the best in the state.
 Innumerabe public amusements have already beenp rovided for and from re- cent Indications the coming encampment vii be one of the best any national guardsmen ever attended The citizens are taking an active interest in the move ment, too, and they will assist the pro motors to make the gathering a double success.

 Increased Appropriations.
 You have made new annual increased appropriations of more than eleven hun dred and fifty thousand dollars. Of this amount over one million per year. or four millions go to the schools and old soldiers. I would suggest that you weigh well any further increased afproprla- tions, and if any in your judgment is necessary, make the payment contingent on whether or not the finances of the state are commensurate with same.
 Sunday Observance.
 We have three great constitutions: The state, the federal and the Decologue. The oldest of these is the Decalogue, and on this is built every progressive human race and every civilization. One of the cardinal articles of that great consti- tuition coming down from Sinai, is to ob- serve the Sabbath, yet, there is not Sunday but what great freight trains desecrate this day in our state, and yet to the east of us stands eGorgia and North Carolina with the Sabbath preserved as a day of rest to the people If we could but rest the machinery of our state for one day in the week, this rest given to the nervous system and energies of the great army of rpilroad employees, would I have no doubt, pre- vent many a destructive collision and loss of life. You need not put this in opera tion at once. but put it in process ef accomplishment. Give these employees a day with their families ana a day of re- spite from the intense nerve strain from train service, and we will have the eX- perience of all time TO knew that we will be the better by it. We could make such exceptions and preparations as wonld be necessary.
 On youi continued labors we pray the blessings of God the Father, and may His blessings abide with you and yo UT work.

plainly that their intention had been to make change in industrial condi- tions, so radical that without military protection, those who were to suffer by the cut in wages, would never calmly stand for it, without murmur. That the governor of the commonwealth fell in with their scheme so readily shows that he was either so strongly identi fed with their interests that he could not refuse their request, or that he was frightened by the representations made to him of impending trouble and pos sible bloodshed. In either event he has shown his utter unftness for the high position he occupies.

ORDERS TROOPS WITHDRAWN.

When, almost two weeks ago Presi- dent Roosevelt ordered troops to Gold field, in answer to the appeal of Gov ernor Sparks of Nevada, this paper took the stand that the action was un- warranted, that Sparks was acting at the solicitation of the mine owners and that the president had been influenced by a United States senator from Ne. vada, who is one of the biggest mine owners in the Goldfeld camp. The Sil. yer Belt also commented on the fact that, whereas, the governor in his ap- peal stated that condition of anarchy and revolt existed in Goldfeld, his rep. resentative sent to that camp, gave it out that the presence of troops was desired only as a precaution to pre- vent anarchy and revolt. This was the only daily newspaper with one excep- ton in the southwest, that took the stand that the troops had been secured on false representations and that the appeal was unwarranted. in that the mine owners desired the regulars so that they could perfect reconstruction of the camp, eliminating the Western Federation of Miners.
 The press dispatches published this morning bear out this contention, show ing thereby that it did not take Presi- dent Roosevelt any great length of time to "get next" to the yellow streak in the Nevada governor and the transparent scheme of the Goldfeld mine owners to depopulate the camp of union miners, the agitations of which they have claimed threatened the pros. perity of the camp, by means of United States troops. The sweeping reduction in wages made by the mine owners upon the arrival of the troops showed

The Parish Priest.

Another large house saw an excellent interpretation of "The Parish Priest, ' Daniel Sully's beautiful pastoral come dy drama, by the Della Pringle stock company at Dreamland last night. The title role was ably filled by MT. Hogan and the principal comedy part, that of Michael Sullivan, by Claude Kelly, was one of the hits of the evening. Mir. Kelly has shown himself to be an ex- tremely versatile comedian in the vari ous parts he has played during the past week.
 The engagement of the company has been the most successful one in the history of Dreamland, which is due principally to the excellent acting of Miss Pringle and her supporting com pany and the low prices made for the engagement by Manager Alexander.
 This afternoon the company will play a matinee. "The Little Detective' be- ing the bill and prices of 10 and 25 cents have been made for the occasion. Incidentally there will be guessing contest with the prize a kodak for the person guessing the number of paid admissions for the afternoon, or the nearest to it.
 An exciting melodrama "Dangers of a Great City" with Della Pringle in her famous portrayal of the "tough girl" will be tonight's offering. The play is highly sensational, including four acts and seven scenes replete with thrilling situations and climaxes. New vaudeville features will also be intro duced.
 The awarding of the diamond ring for the holder of the right number will occur at the close and will be fol lowed by a dance, for those only who attend the play.
