NESS MEN.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Presi-

before the national chamber of com

was not the presidents swan song"
but speaking more than an hour, he
told many things, uttered many heart
felt thoughts, he will not again have
the opportunity to tell to a general
gathering where the audience will be
so mixed in character.
"One error the people OF this coun-
try are falling into" said the presi-
dent, is the belief the government
ought to do everything and the in
dividual do nothing until forced into
action by the government.
The first important function of
the leaders of congress is the selec-
ton of what ought to be done in the
matter of legislation.
Organizations Can Help.
'In that selection of what ought
to be done great organizations, like
this, can help, may even influence for
good
THE natural inclination of con-
gress is to take up popular issues, say
ing to the country we have done this
for you. so please send us back
What congress has done is not al
ways the best or most important.
There can be no denial that moth
ing more seriously affects the poor
and the rich alike than the adoption
Of a sound financial system. The
poor man does not interest himself
because he has 50 little.
This issue does not catch the
crowd, bat it must he settled and the
poor man is interested. Bodies like
these must take it up with the poor
man, and make him feel his interest,
The issue must he settled
About Civil Service.
"Then there is the civil service sys-
tenn. We are gathering in everything
lying loose. But there is something
that does not lie loose. An executive
order OF October, putting the fourth
class postmasters under the civil ser
vice has attracted criticism. I don't
to their criticism. Possibly the or
der put Republicans on guard in
these Offices. The succession of Re
publican administration filed these
offices with Republicans.
But under the late unpleasantness
who shall say whom these Republ-
cans ere2" commented the president,
and his words were greeted with
cheers and applause.
The party coming into power"
OBSERVED the president. might feel
that this order was unfair
Il have been patient with the crit
icsm and not insistent that all local
offices now appointed by the presi
dent and confirmed by the senate
should be put under the civil service
cloak, no matter how strong my sym
pathies ran that way, so that my sue
cessor may appoint them and ulti
mately be by him put into the classl
fed service"

WILL CELEBRATE FOURTH.
North Augusta Pannie Big Event FOR
Enjoyment of Neighbour God.

North Augusta has decided to eele-
brate the Glorious Fourth in a way
that shall be in every detail appro-
pirate of the great day of days, and
while the celebration will be of the
safe and sane kind, the citizens Of that
neighborhood are determined that it
shall be characterized by one of the
greatest outbursts of patriotic en-
thusiasm. according TO its size that
has ever taken place under Augusta
skies. Committees have been APP
pointed To take charge of the affair,
and all are now hard at work in ar
ranging the different details that will
unite to produce Il result worthy of
their efforts.
The program, While yet incomplete
win include list of sports and other
details in the entertainment line that
will appeal to both young and OLD, and
one that will be sure to awaken, even
in the souls of the most sedate, the
spirit of patriotism, and the feeling of
gladness that they are Americans. In
cluded in the list will be baseball
game. foot races, sack races, potato
races, ct eetera, ct cetefum. and at
noontimc there will be furnished at
the Grange hall dinner, in the prep
aration of which the ladies' of North
Augusta cannot be excelled, and later.
when the day has nearly Waned. a
supper of a like degree of excellence
will be served Dancing, with good
music, will be enjoyed during. the af-
ternoon and evening, and ice ereala
will be for sale at all times. Nothing
will be left tmtone which can in any
way add to the enjoyment of the day,
and if the American eagle don't
scream in North Augusta on Friday,
July 4, it will be because he is tongue
tied.
