crime? If there is, then ought not there
to he q law authorizing.t the sale OF lndul'
gence in crlme?
But aside from this it has not been made
plain enough for me to see the necessity
of the airing Of those acts which can only
reflect on the honor and integrity of the
state. The states making charges which
it can not substantiate is obliged to be de-
moralizing to the citizenship of the state.
A very able solicitor of this Circuit years
ago neithe- employed aid nor allowed
prosecutors to furnish assistance in the
prosecution of a state case.
First. The state had chosen him to con-
duct it's prosecutions.
Second. Any array Of prosecuting at
~'torneys would prejudice the case in the
eyes of both the jurors and the public.
I think the state should pay for the liq-
uor which it has sold to the people. 1t has
no right to sell the liquor which it bought
of others and then keep the money.
I think the state might just as well dis
miss all it's cases against the "grafterS."
No conceivable good is to come from fur
ther prosecutions, even if a jury could be
found who would convict.
MISREPRESENTATION is n Of the
ablest as we'll as one of the most popular
lawyers in the state. If he would take in
politics on the side, he.has only to choose
his office, which he can get by the taking.

The Veterans.

Abbevfle enjoyed the pleasant duty OF
entertaining the survivors Of Orr's Rifles.
In addition to the survivors of Orr's Regi-
ment. there were quite a number OF vet
Grams present who belonged to other regi-
ments. All seemed to enjoy this meeting
together again to the fullest.
When q man spends four years OF his
life, Of his young manhood, in a war such
as that one was, the impress Of that war
upon tho life Of the man will be deeply
burned in. There is little wonder that az
ter forty odd years the events Of the war
stand out so bright in the memories OF
these soldiers. "We are a part OF all that
ne have aver met" and these four years
make up a large part q the experiences of
these veterans.
They enjoy these reunions. To recount
the stories Of camp life, to laugh again at
the quips and cranks Of the regiments
wit, to 60 over again softly the horror, the
carnage, and the terror, please these old
soldiers beyond the appreciation Of the
young.
With. every reunion the ranks are grow
ing steadily less. Just in a few years now
there will be no more Of these, our
fathers. Let them enjoy their latter days
in peace. Let us help to make their re-
unions as pleasant to them as we possibly
can. We owe it to them. No Spartan al
Thermopyle had a more dauntless heart
no burgher at Rome "in the brave days o.
old" more genuine courage, nc soldier O
the "Old Guard" a greater devotion to dut!
than had the soldier under Lee.
A rich heritage they have left us; w
glory in every page Of the history the!
have written with their blood. We tin
younger generation, put our seal Of ap
prova on their deeds and acknowledge
their deeds as worthy Of emulation.
It is a great pleasure to Abbeville t.
know that Confederate soldiers enjoyed
themselves while her guests, for we fee
that In the person Of the true Confederat
soldier we have a subject worthy the high
est honors-nay, more: do you not fee
that In this battle -scarred soldier and we
peaceful citizen We have lone whom tn
King delighteth to honor?

NEW YORK CITY MILK SUPPLY
 PRICE INVESTIGATION BEGINS
Names of the Firms Composing the
 Alleged Trust.

New York, Dec. 9--Another so-called trust inquiry was begun in New York today by William Grant, a New York lawyer, designated by the attorney general of this state to decide whether a monopoly exists which controls the price of milk in the greater city. With the opening of the investigation the petition of the attorney general be- came public giving the names of the firms alleged to be in the combine. Collectively they are the Consolidated Milk exchange. New Jersey corpora tion, and individually the Borden Con- densed Milk company the Sheffield Farms s-Slawson-Decker company and the Mutual Milk and Cream company.
 H. c. Beaks. who admitted that he was instrumental in organizing the Consolidated MIX exchange. was the most important witness, but he denied emphatically that the exchange at any time attempted to conspire to control prices. Under cross examination, how ever, he admitted concerted attempts by milk dealers to bring about in creased milk sales and to incidentally increase prices through articles in New York newspaper. But this pub ,licity campaign was a failure in large sense.

NAVY YEAR BOOK FOR 1909.
 THE RACE FOR SECOND PLACE
Among the Navies of the World Lies Between United States and Germany The Standing.

Washington, Dec. c9.-The navy year book for 1909, compiled by Putnam Pulsifer, clerk of the senate commit tee on naval affairs, shows that the race for second place among the na- vies of the world to be still very close as between the United States and Germany.
 Of fighting ships (battleships and armored cruisers) built, building and provided for, this country has 45 and Germany has 46, but the aggregate tonnage for the United States is 659,- 241 as against 654,334. Germany, how ever, has a larger number of small vessels than this country and her total tonnage is S20,693 as against 7S5,6S7 for the United States Germany's SUI ,periority in respect to all vessels is of which she has 97 as against our 36. Germany also outnumbers us in the matter of large guns. the number being POS as against 1S0.
 Of the fighting vessels built and in operation the American tonnage is 7S,- 900 tons in excess of that of Germany. Great Britain is shown to possess 104 fighting ships with a total tonnage of 1,480,680 France has 46 fighting ves- sels, but her tonnage is more than a hundred thousand tons less than that of either the United States or Ger many. This difference is due to the fact that an exceptionally large pro- portion of her ships are cruisers.
 The American vessels are the only ones carrying 13-inch guns and the German vessels the only ones carrying 11-inch guns. All the big guns on British ships are 12-inch. Thirty two of our guns are of 13-inch calibre.
 The year book also shows a total appropriation of $1,416, 6,138,44s for the construction of the new navy since it began in 1883.

PHYSICAL TEST FOR
 ARMY OFFICERS ALL WRONG Surgeon General Torney on the De-
 feet of the Requirement.

Washington, Dec. s.-Malxing a di- rect hit at the annual Roosevelt phys fca1 test for army officers, Surgeon General Torney says in his annual re- port, made public today. that it is believed that the present test not only fails in the object sought" plnysi- cal condition which would enable them to be always fit for active field serv- ice"-but may result in serious injury to elderly officers.
 The defect of the requirement. as 1t appears to General Torney, is that it requires officers to be fit only once year. He wants them to be fit all the time
 General Torney would induce field officers to ride regularly by having the government provide mounts and order lies for them, wherever stationed. He deems it unjust to require officers not with troops to take regular rides dur ing the year. He advocates that the test ride be not required of those serv- ing in the tropic%or those officers who have reached the age of 62 years. :.
