 ham-copy of Resolution.
RESOLUTIONS ARE ADOPTED

Augusta, Ga, June 20.-(Special)- At the congregational meeting of the communicating members of the First Presbyterian church today after morn- ing services resolutions were passed confirming the great and successful work done in the parish by their pastor Dr. J. T. Plunket, and refusing to unite with him in his request to the presby tery asking that the pastoral rela lIors between him and the congregation be dissolved. The meeting was regularly organized. Rev. J. H. Nall of New Or leans, who was present at the service. was asked to remain at the meeting and preside. T. I. Hickman was elected secretary of the meeting.
 Several members of the congregation made short talks and advanced theories as to the correct and efficient manner of handling the matter in hand, that of appointing a. committee to unite with Dr. Plunket to appear before the presbytery. Following these remarks the resolutions were passed as follows:
 "Whereas, our pastor the Rev. l. T. Plunket, D. D. has asked this con gregation to unite with him in a re- quest to the presbytery for a dissolu- tion of the pastoral relations existing between him and us, and
 w heraS, he has given In part as grounds for this request that this pas toral relationship has existed for 19 years and in his opinion longer pas torship would not be conducive to the interests of this church, nor to the ef- 1ciency of himself as pastor, and that he could accomplish greater work in a new field therefore, be it
 Resolved, l. That signs of the great and successful work lie has ac- complished as pastor and preacher in our church, and in this presbytery, are abundant on every hand and that We have every confidence in his ability to continue it.
 Resolved, 2. That we are not prepared to admit that his efficiency is impaired, nor his usefulness among us in any wise less ended.
 Resolved, B. His long life and constant Christian life among us has served to enrich him the more deeply in our love and affection.
 Resolved, therefore, that we decline to unite with him in his request to the presbytery."

APPEAL TO KING EDWORD.
Toronto Grand Jurors Ask Monarch To
 Cut Out Racing.

Toronto Dispatch to New York World
 Deploring dishonesty born of racetrack gambling and the disgrace which follows many a young persons get-rich-quick efforts, the grand jury in presentment to- day asked that representations be made to King Edward and to Governor Gen. eral Grey, asking that they withhold their presence and patronage from all such institptions as permit public bet ting.
 Calling attention to the mania for gam bling, the grand jury says:
 "We have noticed that the states of tha American Union which lie next to the Province of Ontario have adopted radical and stringent laws for. the prevention of racetrack gambling in every form. We seriously hope that an awakened public will compel such legislation as will make 1t impossible for any racetrack or other sporting institution to continue in exist ence if betting be at all permitted in con- nection herewith.
 bet in a cigar store than on a racetrack hard to answer. We certainly cannot de- termne the difference. Yet the fact re- mains that the poor man who cannot af- ford to lose time from his employment or to pay the $l.50 admission fee is denied the privilege which is freely granted to the general public on the racetrack.
 ''Is 1t because fashionable society is the offender of the times? Or Is it because the wealthy represented in these institu- tions has errors for the lawmakers?"

RAILROADS JET
 READY FOR RUSH Large Car Contracts for Next
 Years BeIivery IDLE CARS 60 T) SHOPS Though Volume of New Business For Week Is Small Specifications On Contracts Are Heavy-Great
 Activity Is Anticipated.

New York, June 20.-Although the vol tune of new business in iron and steel products last week was smaller than for several weeks specifications on contracts were heavy. The principal new develop ment was the action of the railroads which are preparing to place large con tracts for cars for next years delivery, and in the rushing idle cars into repair shops to meet the pressure of shipments. It is estimated that at least 100000 tons of shapes and plates will be required by the railroad equipment manufacturers in the next six months. The Pennsylvania lines alone are to purchase 5000 cars. Rail contracts have only been 25,0O0 tons, but the full month is likely to develop or ders aggregating 3O0,00o tons.
 Orders for fabricated steel have reached 5000 tons during the week, 10000 tons of which went to the American Bridge com pany. Tenders have been made on 140,- GOO tons and live inquiries are in the mar ket for 90,000 tons. The principal rail- road work now pending is 1900 tons for the St. Paul.
 Specifications for wire product placed thus far in June have been at a greater average daily rate than at any time in the history of the trade, with the ex- ception of last month.
 The principal development in pig iron has been the demand from railroads and equipment shops, including charcoal iron for car wheels.
 Steel plants have bought 10,000 tons ad- dtional of basic and pipe works have bought 10000 tons of Virginia foundry. Prices are advancing. There have been some additional sales of old material to steel works in the east and some heavy business is reported to have been done in the west for Chicago and Pittsburg works.

MITCHELL FOR CONGRESS.
Labor Leader May Later Become Can
 ddate in Pennsylvania.
,m the New York Times

From the New York Times.
 John Mitchell, formerly president of the United Mine Workers of America, and now one of the working officers of the American Federation of Labor, spoke Tuesday of lds ambition to be a member of Congress. He referred to the fact that the democrats of Illinois had offered to him the nomination for governor, and to his understanding that he might have had the second place on the democratic national ticket last year. Neither of the places appealed to him, he said, as he did not care for politics. He did feel, however, that there was work to be done by active and progressive men in Con gross, although that body, as now con stituted, did not give much scope for work by free and restless men, It would not be changed, he said, unless men of that stamp were sent there.
 MT. Mitchell spoke of the work he had done for the miners and of the labor movement in general. The great advance, he said, was that thoughtful men had accepted the new economy-that prosper ity of a nation rested not on the num- Der of it's millionaires or elegance of it's palaces, but on the general prosperity of all its people, He said he was never of the opinion that it was right to de- nounce men who control wealth. but rath- CT to persuade them of the justice of his cause.
 Speaking of the invitation to move to Scranton and run for Congress, Mrl Mitchell said he felt now that he had duties to discharge here. But" he add ed, If in the course of time I can see my way clear, without disregarding any conscientious obligation which I owe to the cause in which I am enlisted, l will satisfy my personal inclination and take up my home in Scranton"

 FOOD TRUSTS RESPONSIBLE
Curtail the Supply of Farm Products
 To Maintain High Prices.
rom the New York American.

From the New York American.
 From the Department of Agriculture comes the important information that We are not producing as much, in pro- portion to population, as we were ten or a dozen years ago."
 We are told that our farms have not kept pace with our increase in numbers
 And we are asked to believe that "this fact alone is sufficient to account for the enormous advance in the price of food stuffs.'
 The implication seems to be that noth- ing Is the matter with us-except that more people ought to go to farming.
 It is also assumed by most newspapers in the general discussion of the subject that nothing but the lure of the city lights keeps people from farms; that the whole trouble lies in the fact that most of us are frivolous and fond of vaude- vile, and that most of the farms are a long way from the Bowery
 The American desires to submit to an intelligent public that the explanation is inadequate.
 If the United States doesn't produce enough food to feed it's people, the mat ter is certainly serious, and the reason that lies back of the fact is likely to be serious, too.
 The idea that the prices of bread and butter and beef are going out of sight because our people hate to work outdoors is not to be taken seriously.
 There never was a moment in the his- tory of this country when the out-of- doors life-the life of wholesome agrieul- tural labor and the economic independ- ence that ought to go with that kind of life-made so strong an appeal to the sentiment and aspiration Of city men as 1t does today.

CARE OF OLD PEOPLE.
Best Provision Is Found in Homes of
 Their Children.
(Effectlve June 6, l9o9)
From the Dallas News.

From the Dallas News
 Of course, all of the old people who find themselves in need are not wholly or even mainly responsible for their own poverty. Bad luck has had to do with 1t: or extfavagance on the part of others; or even robbery or disaster; or the waste of war; or the failure of their children in hlial duty, failures of others to perform their duties or pay their just debts to them. One may go even further than this and charge up the misfortunes of some of the old to their failure to raise their children in the right way, to inculcate In them that turn for industry and economy that Is necessary to make them successful and helpful when the time comes to try out their good quail ties.
 While there are other methods of ale Viating the conditions of those who are classed as supernumeraries, and while the News favors most liberal provision and sympathy to this end, it Is quite in or der to call especial attention to the most natural, most tender, and most successful of all the plans. All men and women come into the world in absolutely help less condition. The struggle to bring the infant through years of helplessness and danger is, in many cases, the most unselfsh and heroic of all the struggles mortals ever make. The service extends ONti AOh6 dhd NSebAS sSoiss eshh 1hS SoAi- sequent sacrifice means the life of pa rents in thousands of instances. The man or woman who has forgotten all that has been done for him or for her Is either too mean for a place above the beasts or he or she has been grossly neglected or miseducated by foolish and overin- dulgent parents. This point Is dwelt upon because 1t is a highly important point in the solution of the problem as to what it is best to do with the old.
 The best thing to do for the young, as a rule, is to leave them with their pa rents, thus securing that care and tender ness which Dame Nature has provided for them. The best provision for the old is to be found in the homes of their children, under the shelter and care of those whom they have saved from help lessness and who owe them much more than they can possibly repay.

 The Alabema National Guard is recog- nized on all sides as the most important organization of men in the state It has recently issued complete history of the National Guard in Alabama, which fur nishes a roster of the men, a complete history of every company, and pictures of men and officers. Some of the informa- ton is of wide general interest and con tains much that is not generally known.
 Seen Much Service.
 The National Guard is an auxiliary of the regular army of the United States, and in addition to being at the call of the proper state authorities is subject to the call of the President, and can be called into service at any time and sent anywhere. Considering these facts and the fact that the National Guard is with out remuneration, 1t takes courage and loyalty to belong to such an organization and words of commendation cannot be too strong for this branch of the service.
 The people of this district little realize the importance and necessity of the Ma tiona1 Guard. nor do they fully appreciate their services, but when it Is said, and statistics show it, that the National Guard of this district have been called into and have seen more service than any troops in the United States, barring the San Francisco disaster, they will then realize with what loyalty their National Guard have stood the test and always responded to the call of duty. They were also the first volunteers In the United States to offer their services in body during the Spanish-American war.
 Officers Association.
 The Jefferson County National Guard association was organized February 2, 1908, immediately after the dsbandment of an organization which existed in Bir mingham for some years, known as ''The Officers Club,' with Capt. J. B. Scully, president, Company A, Third infantry, Alabama National Guard.
 The object of this association being to promote fellowship among the military organizations Jefferson county, to raise the general standard and efficiency of the service and to secure co-operation of the public. The membership to con- sist of all staff and line officers and three enlisted men from each military organiza- tion or the Alabama National Guard n Jefferson county. This association has served it's purpose well, and has been of great value to the National Guard in Jeff ferson county Through this association the monthly battalion drills, which met so favorably with the public, a new armory which is yet to be engineered has been promoted and will no doubt be built in the near future, a provisional company, consisting of 103 enlisted men and three officers from Birmingham organizations to represent Birmingham on the occasion of the Confederate reunion to be held in Memphis in June, and under the auspices of this association this magazine has been engineered successfully through, which is a credit to the National Guard of Bir- mingham and of the state of Alabama
 This association meets the first Sunday of every month with an average attend ance of 75 per cent of the officers in Jefferson county to discuss military mat ters and business. The following men of ability and long military eJperience
