Mr.. Page Again.
Townsville Charity and Children.

Thomasville Charity and Children.
We have great admiration for Mr..
Walter II. Page, of New York. He is
q man oftremendous mental strength,
and when he speaks he is sure to say
something worth hearing but we
regret Mr.. Pages disposition to pa
rade the breadth" of his views when
he comes South and to speak lightly
OF the men who died for us.
At Trinity College the other day
Mr.. Page made a vigorous speech,
but it will do far more harm than
good we fear. Trinity with its many
strong points, has a weakness for
breadth of view" 1t hates the word
'provinciai," and its supreme ambi-
ton is to nationalize. itself. The ad-
dress OF Mr.. Page will strengthen
this sentiment, and give the young
men into whose faces he looked, false
views OF the greatest tragedy of our
history.
Speakingof the negro question and
States rights, Mr.. Page exclaimed
Gentlemen, you cannot gain any.
thing by defending that for which
your fathers fought and died in vain. ;,
To US this is an ignoble sentiment
With large element it is popular, Of
course, and we have no doubt that il
was literally applauded by the peo
pie to whom it was spoken, but it i,
out OF all harmony with the spirit o
the South.
At Birmingham at that very hour
the battered veterans OF the Confed
eracy were doing honor to the mem
DRY of their comrades who died il
vain, according to Mr.. Page. Shall
we, their children, make no defens,
for our dead who sleep in heroes
graves?
We have no desire to arouse the
bitter memories OF the past, but W,
cannot forbear to protest against {
sentiment that if generally adopted
will make us ingrates. We ough
forever to defend that for which ou
fathers died, because the principl
for which they died was eternall,
right.

"THE JUNE BRIDE"
"Now in the month when the Rose is

White in it's Purity, pink in it's pride;
Now in the blush of it's sweet perfuming,
Fresh as the rose leaf, comes the Bride.
"Pure is the breath of the June time
morning,
Pure is the sunlight's dawning dart;
Pure is the bud with the dew adjoining,
Purest of all is Maidens Heart.
"Swset is the Music's peal and pleading,
Sweet it's exultant throb and thrill;
Sweet is the calm and hush succeeding,
Sweetest of all is the Brides Il WH'
Firm is the heart, though The voice
may falter, 5
Whole is her trust as the circling band;
Wedding before the eternal altar,
Soul unto soul, as hand to hand
$50 be she now, and SO forever,
Bride to the man she loves the best;
Time nor trouble, nor death discover, =
Discord threaten, or doubt modest.
Whether the Bride be high or lowly,
Whether the wedding be grand, or
small;
True be the trust, and the kiss be holy,
Else is nothing; and Love is All"

Senator Simmons Mistake.

The Waynesville Courier, an earn
est Craig supporter, thinks that in
asmuch as Mr.. Craig has been falling

Senator Simmons letter champion

an abiding hope that he will not be-
the activity of Senator Simmons will
be the greatest contributing factor.
1t is amazing that so astlte a politi-
clan has permitted himself to be put
in such a position, but realizing that
Mr.. kitchin's success meant his own

evidently couldn't restrain himself.
We trust that he will not find that he
has helped to bring about, in his zeal
to save himself, the very thing he
was trying to avoid.

week nominated William III. Taft of
Ohio, for President Secretary Taft
was the Administration candidate
and before such formidable aspi-
rant all the others, Cannon, Fair

met an easy Waterloo.
James Schoolcraft Sherman, of
Utica, n. Y, was nominated for Vice
President. Mr.. Sherman was formerly
mayor of Utica and is at present
member Of Congress from his district
having been elected three times His
record is good, and among his friends

Dolce court

Miss Dora Murphy, of Waterloo
street, filed an affidavit in mayors
court Monday evening against Will
liam Garfield, charging him with as
sault and battery. Garfield was i'm.
mediately arrested and was given q
hearing before Mayor Scherff late IN
the evening.
.1n the course of the trial II devel-
oped that Miss Murphy was walking
in the street in front of Garfield s
home when the latter made some
slurring remark. The girl resented
the statement when Garfield became
angered and the assault resulted
The attack was indirectly the result
of family quarrel which arose sew
eral months ago. The mayor came
TO the conclusion that both parties
were responsible for the assault and
was consequently lenient with the
defendant.
Garfield pleaded guilty to the
charge and Mayor Scherff imposed a
fine of IS and costs, aggregating in
all to $3.50. He paid the sum and
was dismissed.
Joe Murphy. the father of the
plaintiff, is loath TO settle the trouble
by a mere fine and 1t is said that he
threatened to kill Garfield. The
court is now making an attempt TO
have a peace bond drawn up between
the two families and unless the mat
Ter is settled in this way it will be
necessary to make several arrests.

the young Army workers are well
known to Clevelanders there was
much rejoicing among them.
Miss Westwood is known to the
poor OF Marion as few Salvation
Army workers are known. BY her
diligent work In the dismal and
panicky times OF last winter she
gained place in the hearts Of the
unfortunate which is enviable. Her
many close friends will be pleased
to learn of her happy marriage and
at the same time regret her de-
parture from this city. The newly
married couple will reside in Mas
silon, where they will carry on their
work.
The wedding of the workers was
the elimination of neat romance.
Having become acquainted in the
army work at F'indlay their FREUD
ship grew and the marriage was
long planned. Captain Mcclellan
has been in the work for four years
while his bride has been worker
for the past five years. During all
OF this time they have co-operated
in the Army work.
A number of the local workers
went TO Cleveland Monday and wit
messed the wedding. The ceremony
was very simple but beautiful and
was performed by the captain OF
the order at Cleveland.
