MORRILL, CENTENARY
Vermont Statesman Was Born
100 Years Ago Today.
CITY OWES MUCH TO HIM
Beauty Of Many Of the Government
Buildings Here Due to Sena-
tors Foresight.
CITY OWES MUCH TO HIM

Especial interest is felt by Washing
tonians today in the passing of the CEN
tenary of the birth of the late Senator
Justin Smith Morrill,. and the anniversary
is particularly significant because only
Yesterday the House committee on agri-
culture voted to report favorably the bill
which will extend the benefits of the Nor
rill act to George Washington University.
It is not in this respect alone, however,
that the National Capital is reaping the
benefits of the wise foresight of the
former dean of the Vermont delegation
in Congress, for it may safely be SAID
that there are more monuments to Sena-
tor Morrilrs memory within the confines
of the nations city than there are to
almost any other one senator or repre-
sentative.
Senator Morrill, was the author of the
original land grant in 1852, which at the
present time is dispensing benefits TO SIN
ty-seven different educational institutions
i'm the country. AS chairman of the COM
mittee on public buildings and grounds,
Senator Morrill, did yeoman work in beau
tifying Washington. He was largely re-
sponsble for carrying to completion the
construction of the Washington Monument
after that partly built memorial had been
neglected for more than twenty-five years,
ne labored long and hard for the .appro-
priations for the construction of the pres
ent State, War and Navy Department
building; he planned and saw executed
the system of marble terracing by which
the west front of the Capitol was made
i'm keeping with the main halls of Con-
gress; his legislative measures did much
toward the realization of the present day
Library of Congress, and he was largely
instrumental in securing the conversion OF
the old hall of the House of Representa-
tives SO that it became Statuary Hall.
His Long Service.
Senator Morrills record for continuous
service is the longest in the history of
the national legislative body. He was
born in Stratford, VT, April IA, 1910, ano
with only such education as he coulo
gain by his own efforts. he started in
business as farmer and merchant. Tn
til he reached the age of forty-four ht
held no office save that of justice of
peace i'm his home jurisdiction. He en-
tered upon his career in Congress De-
cember 3, 1856. as member of the
House of Representatives. In 1865 he
was transferred to the Senate and his
sixth consecutive reelection to that body
in 1885, when he had reached the age
of eighty-Seven, was an event without
precedent in the annals of the country
Senator Morrill, died December %, 1898.
A son, James s. Morrill,, is a resident o
Washington, living with his aunt, Miss
Louise Swan. at No. Thomas circle.

HEAVY DEATH DAMAGES.
Wife Awarded $500 for Loss Of
Husband.

Probably the largest verdict ever render
ed in the District of Columbia for in
juries resulting in death was awarded
today against the United States Express
Company in favor Of Mrs. Minnie T.
Ball. A jury In Circuit Court No. 2. be-
fore Chief Justice Clabaugh, awarded her
S., 500 for the death Of her husband. John
J. Ball. as the result OF an explosion
several years ago at the company's gar
age in Northeast Washington.
The company built a high stack. which
was RACED by an explosion OF gases and.

At the first trial of the case verdict
was directed in favor Of the company.

which reversed the decision and directed
a new trial, the result being the verdict
returned today.

"Then If we double the number OF

remarked Senator Gallinger.
You would double the opportunity FOL
the men to earn a living replied Mr.

In answer to a question as to whethe,
the bill had any good features in it. Mr.
Adams said that the opposition Of the
Central Labor Union to the bill was based
on the assumption that it is a prohibition
measure.

Personal Liberty Leagues Plea.
A petition said to contain the signatures
and residences Of more than $4,000 citi-
zens of the District Of Columbia who are
within the voting age was a feature of
the hearing on the Gallinger-Bennet bill
today.
It was presented to the Senate commit

ficers of the District branch of the Per-
sonal Liberty Leagune, who stated that
the signatures were those Of men repre-

the business and professional men.
It was also stated that the signers were
unalterably opposed to the passage of
1.-The drastic and uncalled for measure
known as Senate bill 5473,' which was
designated "a prohibition bill in disguise -
Senator Gallinger asked what the Per-
sonal Liberty League stands for. He was
Informed that it was opposed to any
attempt to make people good by legisia-

"the history of the world shows that such
attempts heretofore have proven failures"

tainment features and will remove the
screens from the front windows and
doors of all the saloons.
Senator Gallinger asked IL the bill pro-
vided that the hotels must. to secure
licenses, have fifty rooms, twice as many
as under present law. Upon receiving an
affirmative answer, he declared 1t a good
provision, and one he advocated several
years ago.
Senator Fletcher asked if the bill con-
tanned an anti-treating provision, and he
received a negative answer.
Rev. DR.. s. H. Woodrow. pastor OF the
dent of the District Anti-Saloon League
followed
law of any with which I am familiar,
the people of the district he represents
want the members of Congress to give
the District model license law-as good
a law, at least. as the congressman have
in their districts and states.
DIR. Woodrow said he was in favor of
four special provisions Of the bill-limiting
the number of saloons to one for every
1000 of the population, the abolition OF
screens, the elimination of the ladies'
entrances the prohibition of liquor-selling
to minors.
at will be no hardship to the thirsty
citizens Of the District If there are only
$50 saloons here" he declared The
removal Of the screens Is the removal
of a great part of the evils of the sa-
looms, because evils are now protected
by the darkness.
Use for Funds Proposed.
DIR: Woodrow startled the gathering
by a novel proposal for the disposal Of
the liquor license fees. He suggested
that they be set aside to make up a
fund for the building Of an inebriate
asylum and to use the fees after the
hospital has been constructed for the
maintenance of the institution. He then
wants some of the funds created by the
license fees-and he would raise them
| IL necessary-used to give half pay to
the family of a man while he is being
cured.
Let the saloons clean up their own own,
mess" declared DIR. Woodrow, land not
