TALK TO SENATORS
Boomers of New Orleans Ask
for Canal Celebration.
SPEAK IN BEHALF OF SOUTH
Louisiana Proposes to Tax Its Peo-
pie $4,000, 900 for Project.
NATIONAL AID IS EXPECTED
Gov. Sanders Holds That it Would
Not Be Fair to Require One City
to Bear the Entire Burden.
NATIONAL AID IS EXPECTED

New Orleans made its plea for the Pan
anna canal celebration before the Senate
committee on Industrial expositions in the
Senate Office building this morning. The
entire exposition delegation. including the
executive officers and the legislature of
Louisiana. crowded into the committee
room and overflowed into the corridors
while their orators laid before the COM
mittee the reasons why the celebration
should be held in New Orleans in pref
erence to being held in San Francisco or
in any other city.
At the close Of the hearing Of the New
Orleans delegates Senator w. l.. Jones
of Washington, chairman Of the commit
tee asked II there were any of the
Washington, D. c.. celebration boomers
who desired to be heard and announced
that the committee would listen to their
arguments. But no one representing the
National Capital was present.
Representatives of the South.
The delegation which appeared before
the Senate committee today did not rep
resent merely New Orleans, or even
Louisiana. but nearly every state in the
south. including Mississippi. Alabama,
The south realizes that the exposition
will be a big thing for it, and Is lend
ing it's hearty support to New Orleans
in the effort to obtain the prize.
Gov. Sanders of Louisiana was the first
speaker. He was followed by Mayor Behr-
man of New Orleans. Lieut.. Gov. p. NJ.

president pro tempore OF the state senate;
Fl. G. Dupre. speaker of the Louisiana
house, and l.. 6. Bentley, prominent
business man. The arguments advanced
by these speakers, who addressed the
House committee on foreign affairs yes
terday. were much the same as those they
put forth before the House committee.
Gov Sanders explained at length the pro-
posed tax of 81, 100000, which the legisla-
ture has voted to lay before the people OF
the state as constitutional amendment
at the polls next fall. He said that the
proposition had received practically this
una niinous support of the legislature, rep
resenting every part of the state, and that
it was foregone conclusion that the peo-
pie would back it up.

FRANK e. SMITH,

1T is with great pleasure that we
gather this morning to offer our con-
graf ulations on the attainment of the
first half century of your first century
of existence. 1t must be fun to be so.
Life has one great Divide. Prodigal of
power. the energy of youth and the
bounding hope of manhood have taken
you up hill. Fifty is the summit. Be-
fore you now the other side appears.
You are better man than before.
but YOU know more and can be trust
ed to throw out your clutch, gently put
on brakes and coast.
I'VE greet you today as the faithful
steward of a large financial trust.
Most of US remember you when you
began with the infancy of this bank
in small room without clerks and
with few depositors. This was 16 years
ago: today the infant is full grown.
During all this time you have been at
the helm, enthusiastic and wise, pre-
grcssive yet conservative. The great
growth of this institution is now a
matter of common knowledge Men
have come and men have gone, but
you have stayed. and the splendid
growth of the Augusta Trust Co. is
the best tribute to your worth.
This vase of roses we leave with
you as an expression of our confidence
and affection"

HOD CARRIERS STRIKE.
Ask Advance of rs Cents Per Day
Strike General Through City.

The first evidence of anything OF the
work of reconstructing the State
House began became manifest Friday
morning when the mortar men and
hod carriers at work on the building
struck for an advance Of 3k cents per
hour or % cents per day, and left the
premises. The strike came at o'clock
the hour for beginning work. The ma :
sons were by the action of the car
rlers left without any helpers and also
quit.
The number of men affected by the
strike at the State House is about 60,
there being II stone masons, IS brick
masons and &c carriers engaged on
the job. but the strike was general all
over the city, and wherever masons
were employed the helpers quit. There
are, however but few places in the
city at present where masons are en-
ployed. and it was estimated yesterday
thN the number affected by the strike
would not exceed IS.
With the exception OF the above the
work at the State House went on yes
terday as usual In speaking of the
trouble yesterday Supt. Troy. who rep
resents the George A. Fuller Co. of
Boston, the contractors, said that the
company had nothing to do with it
and that the matter would have to be
settled between the strikers and the
local contractors. He was confident
also that the strike would be of short
| duration

KITCHEN CALLS
SPECIAL SESSION

Raleigh, \. G.. June 3.-Governof
Kitchen late today signed proclamation
calling the general assembly of North
Carolina to meet in Raleigh in extraordi-
nary session on Tuesday. June II. to act
upon the matter of the failure to sell the
entire issue of s3.43o.0O0 of refunding bonds
to take UP the issue ON July l.
Governor Kitchen on issuing his procla-
nation says the extra session is called
for the purpose of considering the emer-
gency resulting from the inability of the
state treasurer to sell, in accordance with
the state law, the bonds to refund those
coming due on July ]. 1910, of the issue of
1850, and of enacting legislation to enable
the state treasurer to secure sufficient
funds to pay said last mentioned bonds
at their maturity"
The first attempt to sell the bonds May
IS, brought in bids for $1.76s, 600 and these
bids were declined as the full issue was
not subscribed. At the opening of the
second bids. May .. the bids were for
S1.219.ooo. ranging from par to $l.0i. These
were accepted. leaving s2211,o oo yet TO be
subscribed. The act authorizing the bonds
requires that these be sold at not less
than par.
The governor has written personally to
every bank in the state. asking that rep
resentatives meet him in Raleigh. June 8,
To see if the entire issue cannot be
foated. Though not officially given out
it is understood that if this is done the
call for the extra session will be re-
Voked
