Declaring himself to be proteetionist
on the tariff question and indorsing the
establishment Of the postal savings bank
to bring about confidence among manu-
lecturers. better wages and the freer
circulation of money, Thomas Parran,
Republican candidate for Congress in
the Fifth district, formerly launched
his campaign in front Of the court
house at Leonartown Wednesday after
noon.
Mir. Parran was introduced TO a vast
concourse Of people, who listened with
attention and gave him frequent ap-
plause to the very close Of his address.
81 am protectionist, said Mr.. Par
ran, "and believe that the protective
tariff viii protect American industry
and the wage carrier that 1t will not
help to buid monopolies, but will
create a condition Of confidence among
manufactures and bring out the hidden
money Of this country into freer cireula-
ton.
AFT you do not place duty on goods
for the protection of our products, the
manufacturers in this country will have
to pay small wages and the higher the
wages the more money there will be in
circulation, and the less danger of a
panic. The agitation of the tariff ques-
ton unsettles business and it ought TO
be worked out on scientific principle,
hence approve of the commission ap-
pointed by Mr.. Taft to examine the cost
of productions in other countries and
compare it with that of this country.
''1fthe Republican party finds the
tariff law not perfect, it will be amend
ed without any agitation Of the subject.
The tariff law is creating confidence in
the business world. Statistics show
that there is more money in circulation
as result of the tariff law. Why did
not the Democrats, if they want to wipe
out the tariff entirely-why did they
not take the tariff bill from the tine Of
Washington to the present and declare
what they had to suggest They can't
do it.
81 am not a reactionary Republican;
am not a standpatter, nor am | an in
surgent. / believe the laws passed by
the Republican party were for the
benefit Of the country, and President
Taft is trying to give US the best adj
ministration possible. If any Of the
laws do not bring results l would stand
for their repeal and for the amendment
of those laws"
Capt. William F. Chesley, who pre-
sided al the meeting, introduced as
the first speaker Oliver S. Metzerott.
He took whack at the good roads
scheme, saying the Democrats passed
the Five-million dollar Road Bill. They
are spending SIS, 900 per mile on roads
when it ought to be $4,000 said the
speaker. "The Democratic administra-
ton is looking out for the money bags
of the state.
F. Stone Posey was the next speaker
and declared that Charles county would
stand by Parran and that he would get
400 or 500 majority. 'The election in
Maine is no Indication he said ''of
how the election will go in November.
Vermont went Republican.
Present were Judge John P, Briscoe,
chief Judge of the Seventh Judicial
district; Judge Bell, Of Prince Georges
County ; John S. Jones, William F.

FIRST LECTURE OF
 LYCEUM TUESDAY

The first event of the Lyceum lecture course, the annual series provided by the, city board of education, will be given jat the High school auditorium next Tuesday, night. The speaker will be pr. Tho1lnas E. Green, and the subject of his lecture will be 1.-The Key to the Twentieth C9n- tury: Study in American Dynamics."
 The attractive nature of the lecturfs arranged for this years course has caused a large sale of season tickets for the series. It Is considered all in all the best course yet offered, as it includes more well-known platform speakers and fewer light entertainments than formerly. The course includes lectures by such men as Dr. Edward Howard Griggs, Dr. William Norman Guthrie. Dr. stephen Wise, Dr. H. l.. Southwick, Hamilton Holt and numerous others. One of the most at tractive lectures will be that of Mrs. Florence Maybrick, the well-known Mo bile woman who was confined almost ten years in an English prison on charge of murder. of which she was subsequently, vindicated and was released
 All the lectures will be given at the High school auditorium.

The railway engineering men who are now In Birmingham were greatly i'm pressed by their visit to the steel plant and other industries of Birmingham yes terday. Here are a few of the expres- sions:
 By George c. Yeomans Assistant to president of the Wabash railroad:
 'T have read and heard a great deal of Birmingham, but I was certainly un- prepared for the revelations made on that trip today. Birmingham Is really great I have visited every industrial center in
 America and feel no hesitancy in say ing that Birmingham has steel plant
 equal to and as modern as any I have
 ever visited I am glad indeed that an
 opportunity was afforded me to see Bir-
 mingham. 1t was a real eye-opener to
 every member of this rail committee in
 session here The members in trying to
 ascertain the facilities of the various
 centers have found one of its most valu-
 able assisting agencies by the trip made
 today. Personally can say that I will
 never tire of singing the praises of this
 city. I was truly astounded at what

REGULAR BREWERY IS UNEARTHED BY
 CITY TIGER SQUAD
Three Thousands Bottles of Beer and 100 Gallons of
 Whisky Captured
MAN WITH 100 BOTTLES
 HAD STARTED FISHING
Under House on Avenue II nnd 1560 Bottles In.
 Pratt City

| Yesterday was probably the most sue
 cessful day that the blind tiger squad | has had since it's organization. No less
 than 5000 bottles of beer were confiscated
 yesterday. About 100 gallons of whisky
 were secured also. Twelve arrests were made.
 | Detectives Givens. Garner, McGill and | Henderson secured evidence that A. Ted
 eski at Avenue H and Eighteenth street,
 south, was selling liquor. They at once
 made raid and searched the premises, | finding nothing. Upon further investiga- | tion under the house a regular brewery
 was found Twelve barrels of beer were
 found containing LAO bottles. A number
 of empty whisky barrels were found and
 empty half-pint bottles. It Is the opin- ion Of the officers that Tedeski has been buying the whisky in bulk and retailing | it in bottles. He was arrested and the beer carried to the city hall. Detectives Granger and Gallups arrest ed W. c. Morris at Pratt City yesterday and found 13 barrels of beer containing 156O bottles This added to the LAO bot ties secured by the others brings the total to an even 5000. Forty gallons were se- | cured from Will Monjot in Pratt City by the same officers. Fifty gallons of whisky were found at the Morris place. Officers Goldstein, Brent, Simmons and Saunders have arrested w. R. Womack
 at Vanderbilt. A large amount of beer,
 whisky and gin was secured at his place. The value of the confiscated goods is estimated at $500.
 Of the many amusing things that have happened during the raids one of the
 most Imaginable took place. yesterday
 when Arthur Cain was arrested with a buggy containing near 100 bottles of
 whisky. The negro said that he was | going fishing. The horse and buggy were claimed by w. R. Wray. | M. c. Shannon was arrested and locked | in the city jail yesterday by Detectives | Wren and Sigsbee on charge of bur | gary and grand larceny. It is charged
 that the man has broken into a number | of railroad cars and stolen whisky. The detectives recovered a part of the stolen goods.

NEED AID ID SAVE TUBERCULOSIS CAMP Earnest Plea Made to Board of
 Revenue $250 A MONTH IS ASKED Prominent Citizens Urge Upon Board the Importance of Keeping the
 Camp on Red Mountain
 Going
S25O A MONTH IS ASKED

As last resort to secure means of maintenance of the tuberculosis camp on Red mountain. committee of ten prom inent members of the Jefferson County Anti-Tubercuosis association visited the Board of Revenue yesterday morning and earnestly urged that an appropriation of $250 per month be voted by the board from the county funds to pay the expenses of the camp. The board has the matter under advisement and will report within few days.
 Dr. Russell NJ. Cunningham, who headed the committee. made an eloquent plea for the appropriation, delivering an address of some length before the board. He told of the necessity of carrying on an active campaign for the extermination of the disease, summing up the arguments usually advanced and dealing with the matter ably from a scientific standpoint. He declared that the board would be do- ing a memorable thing in providing the appropriation for the maintenance of the tuberculosis camp, which cannot other wise be maintained.
 Others who strongly urged upon the Dcdiu tuc nctcSSiiy oi tHc were Rev. pr. George Eaves, R. F. John ston and pr. J. H. Phillips.
 Dr.. R. F. Loveady of. the Board of Rev enue replied to the speakers by stating that all the members of the board were thoroughly in sympathy with the move ment. and personally have no objection to the appropriation. He called attention to the fact. however. that the Hillman hospital, the pest house, and the county almshouse and poor farm have to be maintained by the county entirely, and that other charitable institutions in the county are also dependent for portion of the expense of their maintenance on the county funds.
 Only four of the five members of the board were present when the committee called yesterday and immediate action was not possible. From what can be gathered from the various members, the board will consent to making the appro- priation asked. The matter will be thor oughly threshed out and the board will probably submit an extended statement. telling in plain figures exactly what is now being done by the county along this line. The board seems cognizant of the need of a tuberculosis camp, however, and from all indications will grant the monthly appropriation rather than see the good work discontinued.
 The ten members of the committee who waited on the board were Dr. Cunning ham, Dr. George Eaves, Dr. R. B. Hark- ness, pr. J. H. Phillips. R. E. Collins, K. F. Johnston, Matt Sloan, Dr. H. S. Ward, Robert Patton, and W. M. McGrath.
