The need Of an American merchant
marine as an auxiliary to the navy,
formed the principal topic of discus
sion in the house of representatives
during the consideration of the urgent
deficient appropriation bill. The debate
WAS participated in by Mr.. Lit'letield
Of Maine. who questioned the Legality
Of tho provisions of the bill appropri-
ating 81, 900 900 to supply deficiency
for coal for the navy caused by the
transfer of the battleship fleet from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. He crlti-
cised congress for its failure to make
appropriations for merchant marine.
His remarks elected from Mr. Fltz-
geald Of New York the charge that
the Republican party was responsible
for that condition. while Mr.. Sherley,
Kentucky, maintained that the lack
of q merchant marine. ga national
disgrace, was due to Republican pol
icies.

it's old time military precision and Wig
or. while the fearsome rebel YELL"
which once rang out so defiantly, is
become quavering and weak. Death
has thinned the ranks visibly since the
general reunion in Richmond last year
and hush of sadness has fallen upon
the remnants of the vanishing hosts OF
the confederacy because of the recent
death in Vicksburg of General Steph-
en- d. Lee, commander in chief of the
United Confederate Veterans. The
cOncave commenced today i'll the
Magic City will be a time for recount
ing past victories and defeats, from
which all the old sectional bitterness
has departed, and for last greetings and
parfings between many of the aged
veterans who realize that on this oc-
casion they may answer to their last
roll call on earth. Many federal veter-
ans are here and are fraterniZing with
the boys in gray, the enmity between
"Yanks'' and "reb" forgotten.
Despite the solemnity of the oc-
casion, the war time enthusiasm of the
old Confederates will find expression in
a big parade and in many spectacular
features which will mark the encamp-
ment Thousands of Sons and Daugh-
ters of the Confederacy are here and
will play prominent part in the three
days program. Birmingham citizens,
with the true hospitality Of the south,
have thrown their doors wide open TO
the visitors and there will be many en-
tertainments on lavish scale. Thou
sands of dollars have been spent in
decorating the city and all the principal
streets are swathed in bunting anT

WORK OF BIG
MEETING OVER
GOOD TEMPLARS PLAN TO CELE-
BRATE TEMPERANCE cENTEN-
NAL.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-Following
the international convention CT the In
dependent order of Good Templars,
! which will wind up it's business tuda:.
the national session of the order will
begin it's deliberations. Hundreds Of
leaders, in the anti-saloon cause are
here from all over the world and the
torical landmarks of the temperance
| movement.
this week, practically all Of the dele
gates will go to Saratoga Springs, N.
the founding of the first temperance
society will be celebrated, beginning
next Sunday The Saratoga assembly
will be, in all probability, the most no
table gathering of the anti-rum clans
in the history of the world.
1t was Dr. Billy James Clark who
planted the seed of the temperance
movement in 1908 by founding a local
temperance society at Moreau, Sarato
ga county. N. Y.
Little did he realize as he organized
the first society for the carrying on OF
temperance work with the help of Rev.
L. Armstrong, Gardner StOrr ana
James Mott that a century was to raj
ly to his temperance banner multitudes
of societies and millions of earnest
followers. Little did he and the others
associated with him realize that that
quiet insignificant meeting which was
held in his home at Moreau, on April
3d. 1903, was to provide the inspiration
for a great worldwide temperance
congress and that at his home and at
his grave there would gather multi
tudes pledged to the same work who
would there find new inspiration AMI
new COURAGE lOI piCSoihS Yin NN~'N
against the forces Of intemperance.
But such is to be the fact, and how
fitting if seems that the society which
Billy Clark organized and which is
still in existence, should be in charge
of the preliminary arrangements for
the coming centennial celebration.
Such initial steps have already been
taken and a contract secured for the
great convention hall at Saratoga
SPRINGS. This splendid auditorium will
seat 5000 people, and there Is every
likelihood that it's utmost capacity VIII
be taxed, and that overflow meetings
will have to be held in the various
churches of the place the pastors all
having agreed to recommend to thelr
official boards the placing of their edi-
fees. free of charge. at the disposal OF
such temerance societies as may fit
tingly occupy them.
All temperance societies, of what
ever name or nature, throughout 'he
entire world have been most cordially
invited to participate in this unique
celebration Each organization so par
ticipating will be a law unto Itself, max
ing it's own program and Responsible
for its own utterances. There Will be-
assigned to each organization day or
days. as they may elect, the great haii
or some church, as they may choose
