There is scarcely a city or town In the
United States which has not an art So
ciety. and yet between these different or
ganizations there has heretofore been no
medium of communication, no way in
which experiences could be exchanged
and information circulated. For this rea
son no concerted action has been taken
in regard to any art matter and the ex-
tent of interest in art in America, it is
pointed out, is little appreciated or
known.
Among the organizations which have
already Signified an intention of send
ing delegates are the Municipal Art So
ciety of Baltimore, the Art Society of
Pittsburg the Artists Guild of St. Louis,
the National Academy of Design. the Ma
tional Sculpture Society, the National So
ciety of Mural Painters, American Water
Color Society. the Architectural League
of New York, the Art in Trades Club,
San Francisco Chapter of the American
Institute of Architects. the American
Civic Association. the Brooklyn Institute
of Arts and Sciences. the Quincy Boule
ward and Park Association. the Detroit
Museum of Art, the Society of Columbia
University Architects. the American Fine
Arts Society, the Arundel Club. the Art

WOOD DENOUNCES THE VERDICT
DECLARES FINDINGS A mis-
CARRIAGE OF JUSTICE"
Characterizes as Incomprehensible
the Acquittal Of Capt. Corput
by Court-Martial.

a miscarriage of Justice is the way
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, commanding
the Department Of the East, characterizes
the court-martial proceedings in the case
of Capt. Rex Van Den COrput, Coast
Artillery Corps. Capt Corput was charged
with presenting a false and fraudulent
claim for mileage and with conduct un.
becoming an officer and a gentleman.
The court found him not guilty on both
charges. but guilty Of conduct to the
prejudice of good order and military
discipline and sentenced him to be repri-
manded.
"Disregarded Obligations.
The reviewing authority says Gen.
Wood. regrets that he is compelled to
publish for the information of the serv-
ice and consequently bring to the knowl-
edge Of the public the action of the court
in the foregoing case of Capt. Rex Van
Den Corput, Coast Artillery Corps.
I'm this case the accused deliberately
and repeatedly disregarded the obligations
of his office and the principles OF common
honesty and integrity and certified over
his official signature that he had per-
formed certain acts, when, in fact, he
had not done so, and on these untrue GER
tificates he claimed and received money
from the United States as mileage 10
which he was not entitled Though the
amount OF money involved is small, 1t
does not affect the nature or quality OF
the offenses committed.
Calls Verdict Incomprehensible.
That court composed of officers OF
rank and experience should accept the
reasons by which the accused attempted
to justify his admitted acts, set aside
from their consideration those acts and
the material evidence Of the case, IS IN
comprehensive to the reviewing author
ity and is a serious injury to the military
service and it's reputation.
THE government permits an army OFF,
Ger to certify to the facts in many cases
in which an oath Is required from other
public officials and it should be the duty
and pride Of all officers to see that the
confidence SO repOsed cannot be violated
without swift and condign punishment.
1.-The opinion of the court amounts to
declaration that the presentation of false
certificates and the collection Of mileage
for travel knowingly not performed is
not inconsistent with the honorable status
of an officer and gentleman
This case Will, in the opinion OF the
reviewing authority, always stand as one
of the most fragrant instances of mis-
carriage of justice in the record of the
army.
1.-The findings and sentence are there
fore most emphatically disapproved.

Vital Facts of independence

The Fourth of July is rated great
day in the nations hisory, not be-
cause the Declaration of Independence
was first read to the Continental con-
gress on that day, but because it
was adopted on that day 1t is true
that a resolution declaring the col
onies to be free and independent
states was adopted July 2, but the
declaration, written by Jefferson and
afterward amended by the congress,
was not adopted until July T. 1t was
signed the same day by John Han
cock president of the congress, and
Charles Thomson, the secretary Au-
gust it was signed by all the mem
bers of congress present-50 men,
bers. Six names were afterward at
tached. Col. Mexican did not sign it
until 1871. Thus the mere fact of
signing the declaration is of small
Importance. The adoption was the

True Meaning of the
Celebration of
the Glorious Fourth

waving banner, and at sound Of our
national airs, a true sense OF loyalty
may be kindled in their hearts and
famed into the sentiment of burning
but righteous patriotism for the land
of their adoption. For the veal of the
American democracy depends upon
the integrity, the fidelity, aye the UNI
swerving allegiance of every national
unit.
Just as it was unity that gave birth
TO the nation, so il is unity that must
preserve the nation. "In union there
is strength, is as true to-day as il was
a century or two ago. Together" is
the call of the age-and it is the call
especially to be needed by us Of this
glorious American republic.
Hence, while we move in step to
martial music, with the Stars and
Stripes flung to the breeze, while We
dine or picnic in honor to the ma
tons day" indeed, whatever may be
the form Of our rejoicing over our
country's liberty, we must have a care
lest we forget the real reason Of our
merrymatng and selfgratulation. In
dependence day is ours with all the
glory Of the past and all the splendor
of the present; freely we have taken,
and continue TO take all the advant-
ages, the rights, privileges, progress
and advancement that were ushered
into being with the nations birth.
Freely. then. let us give. Not a
rhetorical prating of patriotic devo-
ton to country, that is no more
than self-interested alliance Of
party, not munifcent contributions

LOYAL TO UNION
EVEN At WEDDING

Because the marriage certificate
offered him did not bear the union
label a former Pendleton linotype
operator refused to accept It, The
man in question is c. C. Clinton. who
worked in this city for short time
several years. The account Of his bold
stand is contained in the following
dispatch from Hutchinson, Kansas,
where he was recently married.
When 1t came to choice between
his trade Inion and his prospective
bride. Coleman c. Clinton, a linotype
operator of Portland, ore, chose the
former here today, and, had it not
been for the anxiety Of Probate Judge
Jordan to please. the marriage cere-
mony might not have been performed.
Clinton absolutely refused to be mar
ried when the marriage certificate
promised to be without union label.
Clinton yesterday secured a license
to wed Miss Ethel Johnson. He had
come from Portland to make her his
bride. Probate Judge Jordan has
lately received some fancy marriage
certificates from the east and he was
about to use one of these, when Clin-
ton noticed the lack of union label
and baked. Another certificate was
secured and the ceremony was per-
formed.
