LONE STAR SOCIETY
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY
August ~, 1s4s.

." HE Lone Star Society," FOUND
ed in Alabama 81 years ago today
Aug. u, 1S4S-kicked up q rum
pus that lasted almost without inter
mission for 40 years, and ended, final
ly, with nothing less than the political
independence of the Island of Cuba
There has ever lurked in the famous
Monroe doctrine" the idea that it is
a sort of manifest destiny that the
United States of America shall ulti-
mateIy have political control of the
whole western hemisphere. and it was
in keeping with said idea that the Lone
Star society was organized
The prospective of the society. as
expressed in the preamble to its con-
stitutiOn, was anything but a modest
one, its purpose being for the extern
sion of the institutions, power, influ-
ence and commerce OF the United States
over the whole of the western hemi-
sphere and the islands of the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans"
The society began its work with an
attempt to wrest Cuba from the do
main of the DOns. The attempt was
battered with senatorial resolutions
and presidential prOclamatiOns, but il
kept on until il materialized in the
person of NarcisO Lopez, who. at the
head of an army of patriots, assisted
by Sympathizers from the United States,
made the rule of Spain in the Gem Of
the Antilles" tremble to its fOunda-
ton

We desire to compliment him on his
accurate knowledge of conditions sur
rounding your schools, and his pains

The School Deficit.
According to the report. the deficit Of
the schools on July I, 1912, amounted
to S4I, O7S22- That amount Mr. Mas
Quellette said, taking into cOnsidera-
ton the showing that the present
members had made, with reference to
the administration of the affairs OF
the schools, need not concern them.
Mr.. Masquellette stated that the schools
should certainly be put on cash
basis if the present members con-
tinued their efforts to place them
there, and it should be accomplished
within a short time.
The audit OF the books was taken
from June so. 1911, to June So 1912.
In one instance the auditors went back
to the year 1888. and that was to
ascertain the amount the city owed
the schools relative to the delinquent
taxes.
The report is divided under four
heads called exhibits" and eight diff
