Colonel Kennedy Speaks

Colonel Kennedy Speaks
 Colonel Kennedy said:
 Ladies, fellow comrades and citi- zens:
 this noble hillside, away from the busy scenes of life, to reflect on the virtues of our departed friends and comrades, we arouse the tenderest emotions, and gather from this place inspiration for higher endeavor, and purer ideals in citizenship. in patriotism and in human living, and human loyalty.
 As l contemplate the beauty of his character, the warmth of his handclasp, the sincerity of his purpose. and the manllness of his youthful figure, I re- call that a king once said of a prince struck down. Taller he seems in death
 My friends, it has seemed to me that with each recurring year Phil Finch grows taller and his memory grows dearer to us. One of tho decrees of fate direct that We poor mortals shall learn and love each other most after we have played our parts here, and then gone down 10 the dear dreamles dust
 estimate upon Phil Finch. We loved him in the flesh. He sleeps here under the flowers, and this occasion attests our devotion to what he was. He has grown taller, as time has softened our sorrow, and made opportunity to dwell upon his many virtues. Stretching through the vista of IA years, I have a picture in my mind of 106 brave. clean limbed, strong armed, happy hearted Alabama young men, organized, ready and eager to defend a reunited coun- try. They were men who sprang from the loins of the modern Spartans; those heroes whose inimitable courage and
 
 into the fabric of our history the names of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. One hundred and six units formed as perfect and complete a mili- tary organization as his peopled bat tlefeld since the beginning of time.
 Of It's Highest Type
 Phil Finch was conspicuous in that company of men, and he was of its highest type. Devoted son of a loving mother successful in business beyond his years, he had put all behind him but the call of country
 Your speaker had the distinguished honor of leading this body of brave young Americans, not one of whom knew if the envious of that place which he loved as home would ever call him its own again. We registered a compact, one with the other It was that if we should lose even one man In battle or by disease as long as our lives lasted on that day we would assemble in a body here at this Oak Hill cemetery and place a flower and drop tear upon his grave
 My friends. we are keeping faith witl our departed comrades. Those who havl gone before us are Phil Finch, Will Per kins and Frank Evans. They were al dear to us. IL was not given to them tc pass out from earthly existence amid the glamour of shot and shell where populal heroes are made. In the narrowing scenes or a rever wracked camp. Deatn's ange watched and claimed their young lives They went away as hero martyrs to duty

Governor Frances Coming

This convention of democrats will be held on the day prior to the convention of delegates interested in the exposition to celebrate in 1919 the centennial of Ala bamas entry into the union of states. This convention will be addressed by eX- Gov David R. Frances of Missouri and thus there will be two big days in sue cession.
 These plans coupled with the appearance of ex-President Theodore Roosevelt mean that there will be more distinguished vis- itors to the state fair this year than ever before In the plans as outlined there is great enthusiasm in Birmingham, as well as in all other cities of the state.

 gate for each of it's 25 members or frac- tion thereof, and these delegates will participate in the business of the conven- ton. The business will consist of discus sions of means for arousing interest in the campaign, and of incerasing the bulk of the contributions of the people of the state.
 visitors to hear the address of the dis tinguished speaker will pack the theatre and this fact is responsible for the plan to sell the lot donated to the cause by q Birmingham real estate firm to the high est bidder The lot is worth S901 but it is thought that in view of the good cause to which the money will be contributed some one of the more rabid Wilsonites of this state will offer for the ground more money than it's real value.

against 1t, and they publicly announced that they would not appeal from the granting of the temporary writ of injunc- tion If just cause had existed why this injunction should not issue it would cer- tainly have been incumbent upon them to have made it known to the court, ana if the court held adversely to them it would have been their duty under those circumstances to have taken an appeal. But neither course was taken. Under tho circumstances there was no course open to Judge Jones except to grant the tenn porary writ of injunction.

MEMORIAL IS HELD
 FOR DEAD SOLDIERS Colonel Kennedy the Chief
 Speaker at Cemetery
MARCH TO GRAVES
Charles E. Rice Delivers Brief Ad- dress Outlining Origin of the Annual Services Growing
 Out of Finch Memorial

A beautiful custom was yesterday per petuated for the fourteenth time in as many years. when the militia of Birming- ham gathered at Oak Hill cemetery to pay tribute 10 their dead who are lying al rest beneath the sod there.
 Tho custom was initiated II years ago at the return of the Jefferson Volunteers from Cuba, where they served in the war with Spain. At the first commemor- ation they paid a tribute to their dead comrade. Sergeant Philip Neely Finch. Until yesterday the day was always called the Phil Finch Memorial day, when it was changed TO a general mem orial day of the Alabama National Guard and the Spanish War veterans of the Birmingham district.
 When the Jefferson volunteers were leaving for Cuba, they entered into a compact with one another, both officers and men, that should any of them be- come stricken in duty or by the dis eases imminent in that country the body should be sent back to Birmingham and once each year. preferably the last Sab bath in August, their survivors should hold memorial services over their graves. They were yesterday complying with the terms of their compact.
 Proceed to Cemetery
 Under the direction of Maj. l.. g. Dor rance the line was formed at the city hall and proceeded from there 10 Eighth avenue and to Eighteenth street, and to Oak Hill cemetery. In the line of march the Boys Industrial band of East Lake led. Following them were Major Dor rance and his stiff, composed of Captain Moon, adjutant; Captain Jordan, surgeon, Lieutenant Buckie, quartermaster; Cap tain McCrossin. retired: Captain Ed l., Anderson Lieutenant Flynn and Lieuten- ant Fitzpatrick. Lieutenant Furman was In command of Battery D, which fired the salute in honor of the dead.
 At the cemetery Charles D. Rice. a local attorney and comrade of the dead ser geant, took charge as master of cere- monies. The band played a medley of sacred music, after which prayer was of fered by Dr. Robert Lee Bell
 At the conclusion of the prayer MT. Rice made a short address, telling why the custom of this memorial was instituted He then introduced the speaker of the day, Col Hughes B. Kennedy, formerly captain of the Jefferson Volunteers, under whom Sergeant Finch was serving when he died.

Judge Jones Bound to Try Case

"The injustice to Judge Jones is fur ther shown by the fact that he had no option in the matter of hearing these cases. Judge Jones was not disqualified from hearing the cause, and ne could not refuse to hear it. The suit was brought in Montgomery, because the law of the state requires that the railroad commits sion of Alabama should be sued in Mont gomery It was brought in the federal court because 1t asserted defense under tho federal constitution. This defense de-
 pended upon the facts, and the supreme court of the United States could not pass upon those facts on appeal from the ruling
 of the state court. It could only examine
 the facts on appeal from a ruling of the
 federal court. It was the only court. therefore and the only method, there an adjudication of it's rights under l--e federal constitution from the supreme court of the United States. Governor Conner says that the commerce court has
 decided nearly all of its cases in favor of the railroads. Why did he not go fur
 ther and say that the supreme court of
 the United States had reversed the com merce court in practically every one Of those cases, and had decided them against the railroads? Why does he now, before
 the supreme court has even heard these causes, before the record is even printed
 denounce the membership of that court? Why does he seek to convey the impress
 sion that they are the dishonest and ser vile tools of the corporations, when he knows or could know, if he only took the trouble to inquire, that the supreme court of the United States, even this very court has decided as many or more cases against the railroads than it has decided in their favor

Attacks Just as Baseless

Governor Conner attacked Judge Jones and denounced him just as he is attack ing him and denouncing him today, be- fore he had rendered single adverse de- cision. He attacked and denounced him for rendering an injunction that he ought to have rendered. His subsequent attacks have been just as baseless, just as devoid of Justification and of merit as his original onPp
