 OPPOSES PLAN  Commander in Chief of the Trans Mississippi De-
 partment
CAMP VS. DIVISION
General Van Zandt Says He is Great ly Pained Because of Reports
 Sent Out From Texas.

Little Rock, May 30.-Major Gener- al K. M. Van Zandt commander of the trans Mississippi department, U. C. ", and nominee for commander-in- chief at the late reunion at Macon, is unequivocally opposed to the move ment looking ts the secession of the western camps. The following letter to friend ill this city states his po- sition.
 animously passed by R. E. Lee Camp No. 168, of Fort Worth, Texas, gives the attitude of General Van Zandt's local camp, one of the largest in the west:

 Dear Friend-I am in receipt of the letters of yourself and your good wife of the 23rd inst, and for which I am very grateful.
 movement looking to the secession of camps of the Mississippi de- partment from the general organiza tion. I have been pained greatly be- cause I have been, by some, reported as favoring such a movement. 1 have never in any way given occasion for such ,ai statement. j. I am sending you, under separate cover, a copy of our morning paper, with a report of action of the camp (which was un- animous) at the regular meeting on yesterday
 "1f God wills, I will meet you at Chattanooga. I am, anticipating much pleasure at that reunion. Please re- member me very kindly lo your good wife. This is intended as a reply to both of you.
 with assurance of my highest es- teem, 1 am.
 'Sincerely yours,
 ''K M. VAN ZANDT."
 The Resolutions.
 The resolutions referred to by Gen. eral Van Zandt, as adopted by the Fort Worth Camp, U. c. ", one of the largest in the South, are as follows:
 Whereas, It has come to our ears that some dissatisfaction has arisen among some of the Trans-Mississip- pi United Confederate Veterans, and Whereas, This camp can see no cause for such misconceived content ion, but on the, other hand have great cause to rejoice, that the friendship, love and respect cemented with the blood of many martyrs who gave their lives for principle, continued to hold us together as one man for half century, and now that the sands of life are so rapidly running out, and we have so few years to cling to- gether, to think of disintegrating is most deplorable, and will result in the breaking up of the strongest tie of friendship the world has ever known; therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the R. E. Lee Camp, U. c. ", No. 15S, feel no cause to lend any aid toward the disruption of the grand old union of Confederate veterans, and hereby pledge fealty to the original compacr or federated camps; be it Resolved further, That we sustain, support and uphold our commander in-chief in preserving the unity and integrity, the maintenance of dignity, peace and harmony of the remnants of the most heroic army ever known to history. / Resolved, That a copy of these res olutions be presented General Bennett II. Young, commander in chief U. C. V. association, and a copy to the press for publication.

The board Of supervisors was in ses-

1t was a very important meeting, anu
several pieces of Business OF great i'm
port to the County was transacted.
The ~chancfry clerk was too busy to
give any "details, but it was learned on
the Street that the road bonds for the
rt.tn district was sold to a Chicago firm
of brokers at a good premium. 1t is
thought that work will not commence
on the roads until spring. A number
of buyers were on hand to bid for the
bonds. There were a number of repre-
sentatives on hand Monday to sell the
county a a of c~ulverts. 1t was
awarded to a Toledo. Ohio, firm.

the state is equally high.
Mr.. Price has been a wheel
horse of local democracy ever since

A Washington ''press AGENT of
parcels post sends forth the joyful
message that the operation of the
new postal provision will trim
down somewhat the high cost of
living. Under the farm prod
ucts' clause of the parcels post
act, as interpreted by the Parcels
Post Commission, he announces
that eggs, meats and dressed fowls
will be carried through the mails
from the farm direct to the ulti.
mate consumer. Containers for
these commodities, fashioned from
corrugated paper and combining
the essentials of light weight and
strength, have already been de
vised, submitted to and approved
by the commission. There are pa.
per crates for eggs which will in.
sure their passage through the
mails intact, and paper boxes for
meats and dressed poultry. The
commission has also worked out.
we are told, a scheme for the in.
surance of these and other mail,
able commodities against loss in
transit.
AS the Washington corrcspon.
pendent figures it out, this new
accommodation will prove of ma
terial benefit to farmer and con.
sumner alike. The former has only
to accumulate q list of Email or
der" customers large enough tC
take care of his crop of eggs or o
dressed poultry. The latter ha,
only to find a reliable farmer Will
whom to place his order. There
after the consumer may have de
livered at his door daily or week
ly, or whenever ordered, eggs ant
dressed poultry direct from TIL,
farm. The price to the consumer
by the correspondents estimate
will be about half what he ha'
been accustomed to pay, while tn,
farmer, selling direct, will receive
more for his produce than he ha
been accustomed to receive from
the middlemen to whom he ha.
sold in wholesale lots. To tn
city retailer, thus to be deprived
of a profitable department of hi
trade, the correspondent offer
this consolation: There are man,
articles, such as choice steaks ant
the like, which the farmer canno
always buy in his local market
With the parcels post in operation
the city dealer may supply hir
through the mails.
It is a pretty picture. Let II
hope that experience of the par
GELS post will prove it a true one

An Old Landmark Gone.

The oldest landmark in Macon, known
as the Montgomery Edwards store, is
gone, 1t was destroyed by fire last
Saturday morning at l o'clock. 1t was
a frame building and the Oldest store
building in Macon. 1t had withstood
the ravages of time and fire. 1t was
built by the late Montgomery Edwards
in the late COS or early 70's and was
used by him as a furniture and UNDER
takers establishment and after bv the
late Patrick Cahill for the same pur-
pose, In after years it was used as a
meat market, restaurant, etc, and for
several years Mr.. j. F. Shelton has
used it as a store house for furniture
and collins. A good portion of his
stock has recently been moved from the
brick store across the street to make
room for the notion department he has
added to his business.
The fire was not discovered until the
blaze had gained such Roadway it was
impossible to check it and great difficult
ty was experienced in keeping adjoin-
ing property from being DESTROYED.
The Yates residence, which has had so
many marrow escapes from fires. still
held its charm and was only slightly
scorched.
The building was owned by Mrs,
Fannie Harrison and was insured for
500. MIR, Shelton's stock was insured
for $500.

Sixteen Persons Injured in Rail.
road Wreck.

The southbound train on the Min,
nesota and International railway was
wrecked at Farley, north Of Bemidji,
at o'clock in the morning. The day
coach and sleeper were overturned.
Sixteen persons were injured, four Sc
riously, and Huston Byrd, a stockman
from Pineville, w. Va, died = few
hours after the accident.
The temperature was 81 degrees be-
low zero and in the intense cold the
passengers who had been in the day
coach and sleeper suffered intensely.
Some of those who were in the sleeper
had on only undergarments and prac-
tically all were without outer wraps.
The wreck occurred in the woods and
this made the work Of rescue more Diff
dcult. .@
The train was two hours late and
was running at high speed when it
struck a switch that evidently had not
been set right or had been affected by
the cold. The engine and the two
first cars passed safely, but the day
coach and sleeper left the rails.
