CHATTANOOGA
READY FOR THE
BIG REUNION
BIG GATHERING OF CONFED-
ERATE VETERANS WILL TAKE
PLACE IN ABOUT A WEEK AND
ALL THE COMMITTEES REPORT
MUCH PROGRESS.

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 19.-The re-
union of the Confederate veterans
being only a week in advance of the
present date makes some observations
and statements concerning the pre-
paredness of Chattanooga to entertain
the veterans and visitors pertinent in
this correspondence.
No reunion organization ever worked
harder to be ready for the event than
that of Chattanooga. Three months
have been devoted to the work, and
it is completed. The last meeting Of
the general executive committee was
attended by every member and re-
ports from sub committee were sub
n1itted. These reports showed that
everything was in readiness, and that
Chattanooga is merely waiting for the
date of the reunion to arrive.
Camp Stewart, by far the largest
single job on the list, has been put
in first class condition, ready for its
and cots and blankets in place. The
dining tent and kitchen equipment are
complete in every detail. force has
been engaged to handle this end OF
the big enterprise. More than 2OO
helpers are necessary for the dining

with an abundance of fresh water.

situated about half way between the
mountain on the west and Missionary

than 1900 Union soldiers are buried.
In this cemetery there are a great

them older than the burying ground.
The large enclosure is sodded in blue

The shrubbery is carefully tended,

MONEY IN RAISING
INDIAN RUNNER DUCKS

Editor Pensacola Journal
Thinking your readers would like to
know some Of the real facts concerning
the profits in raising Indian runners, l
will give you my experience.
Being in bad health and not able to
perform manual or clerical work I de-
cided to devote a part of my time to
raising poultry and ducks.
Three months ago 1 purchased from
DR.. Phillips six ducks and a drake On
dian runners) for $500. These ducks
laid an egg each and every day. I put
a small ad in The Journal costing so
cents, advertising eggs at 800 a set
ting. I have sold twenty settings of
eggs besides Matching off 40 ducklings
for my own use. The feed has cost
$3.50 a month. showing a net profit of
say $500 on six ducks.
The light fawn and white Indian
runner ducks lay a large pure white
egg, not strong or fshy tasting like
other duck eggs, and as good for table
use as hen eggs, and the beauty about
1t is they lay one every day except
during July and August, their moulting
months. They are great foragers, free
from disease, lice and mites and do not

A DIFFERENT KIND
OF DEMOCRAT

Golfers Weekly.

Contrast this present attitude OF
fidelity to party promises with one that
was fairly common among the demo-
Gratis four years ago. Frank Clark of
Gainesville was, and still is, one of the
three congressman from Florida. Dur
ing the 1909 session, when the repub-
licans were making the Payne bill,
Clark left his party, voted against the
democrats on some schedules and held
out this invitation TO the republicans:
IF you put what my people want in
the bill, if you give them protection
against Cuba on plneaEples and give
then, protection against the pauper
labor of Egypt or. long staple cotton
and take care of their lumber and & /!
you please in it. That is
where I stand. You may call it swag
or what you please
Later, when the Florida legislature
censured him for this and other utter
ances, Clark became still more defiant:
You know whether 1t is worth
while to build up the material interests
of this state or whether it is best to
follow a sickening fanatic sentiment or
not. We have been following a fatuous
light. We have been travelling through
the desert and eating the husks, while
our brethren above the divide have
been living on the fat of the land
The official reports show that in the
month of June, 1909, sthese sentiments
from a democratic congressman were
received by other democrats with tire
mendous applause" It would hardly
happen now. Mr.. Clark will come be-
fore the people Of Florida for re-elec-
ton within a year. Wouldn't it be
well for them to conclude that con-
gresham who entertains these senti-
ments belongs in the past?

ASSOCIATION
COOPERATION
READY COOPERATION OF THE
SHOWN WHEN JOINT SERVICES
NEXT SUNDAY MORNING WE'RE
AGREED UPON.

The Pensac ola Chautauqua Associa-
ton held a meeting last evening to
complete the arrangements for next
weeks Chautauqua-
The meeting was well attended and
a number Of important matters were
satisfactorily dealt with.
From the readiness with which the
public has invested in season tickets
there is now no question that Pensa-
cola's first Chautauqua will be a sue
cess in every way.
Doctor L. c.. Phillips, the secretary,
reported that he had interviewed the
pastors Of the various churches, and
an arrangement has been made to hold
a joint service next Sunday evening in
the auditorium Of the First Methodist
church.
To enable all church members to be
present at this union service the other
churches will forego their regular SER
vice and number Of the pastors will
take part in the meeting. Rev. DR..
Dent Atkinson, of Ada, Ohio, a we'll
known pastor and lecturer on Chautau-
qua matters, will talk upon some Bible
theme, and the Chicago Ladies' Or
chestra, one of the great attractions on
the Chautauqua program, will render
selections of sacred music
This generous recognition of the
Chautauqua as an educational and eIe-
waiting movement, on the part of min
listers of the Pensacola churches, is
step in the right direction and will be
appreciated by the public as well as by
the executive committe Of the Pensa-
cola Chautauqua Association.
DR.. Atkinson will also deliver lee
ture every morning during Chautau-
qua week at the Keyser auditorium,
where the Chautauqua is to be held.
Three Of the lectures will be on Bibli-
cal subjects and three Of them literary,
and all will. be open to the public free

Woman Farmer
Going to Rome.

Governor Sulzer. of New York, has
appointed Mrs. Kate Trimble Woolsey
to represent the Empire State at the
International Institute of Agriculture
to be held in Rome. She will be the
only woman among hundreds of agri-
cultural scientists from America.
Mrs. Woolsey believes in the back
to the farm movement for women and
she says this appointment will give her
an opportunity to drive an entering
wedge for the economic independence
of the American women. She says 1t
is entirely feasible to place women
upon small acreage where by intensive
and scientific methods of farming they
living, but will have the opportunity,
through the increase Of land values, to
amass a competency.
Mrs. Woolsey says the day is past
when factory work is the only alterna-
tive for domestic service and that
farming is now open to the sex. She
says women are closely concerned
about the cost of living and let them
generally understand what even the
smallest farm can furnish in the way
of food and we shall see them f1ocking
to the country.
There is little doubt that Mrs. Wool
sey is right, at least in a general way.
Women do make successes as small
farmers and to many the country Of
fers to them an avenue Of escape from
industrial bondage.
No doubt the time is coming when
there will be whole colonies of women
farmers established at suitable places.
Florida has the right kind of soil and
climate, with exceptionally low land
prices and the F7oridians are sufficient
ly gallant to extend a hearty welcome
to all the women farmers who show a
desire to head for the land Of flowers
and opportunity.

emergency. When Chattanooga invited
the Confederates to hold their reunion
here, there was a clear understanding
of what would be expected of the COM
munity in the way of entertainment.
All of Chattanooga realized that 1t
would be no child's play to entertain
the reunion, but all were equally sure
that it could be done.
At the outset of the preparations for
the reunion, it was decided to make all
necessary arrangements for the enter
tainment of not less than 100, 600 peO-
pie, and not more than $780, Chat
tanooga can comfortably entertain 100,-
600, and by crowding little 10000
can be accommodated. If it becomes
necessary even the school houses and
churches of Chattanooga, and every
public building of the city and county
will be used as places where men may
sleep on cots. However, that will not
be necessary, unless double the num-
Der of people that have attended other
reunion present themselves at Chatta-
ncoga. People who desire to attend
this reunion are assured that they Will
find comfortable lodgings and all OF
the hotel and restaurant service that
may be necessary to- supply food. That
much is assured.
Waiting for the Date.
To sum up the situation here, Chat
tanooga is now merely waiting for the
reunion day to dawn. Everything is in
readiness; organization is complete
and perfect. The crowd will be han
died with as much ease as large
crowds are handled anywhere. This
assurance is given after a careful study
of the entire field. In this connection
it may be of interest and value to ex-
plain that the leading spirits in the
reunion work are leading business and
professional men of Chattanooga
They are men who have large interests
of their own that need their attention,
but in order to make sure of the re-
union entertainment, in order to make
it as nearly perfect as possible, these
men left their private businesses in
the hands of their employees and have
devoted almost undivided attention to
the work. The organization was put
together by men who have made sue
cesses of large businesses, and the
Chattanooga Reunion Association is in
all respects a great, business tnstitu-
ton with sufficient brain and capital
to make a success of the undertaking.
The South has but poor knowledge of
the Chattanooga spirit if it so much as
imagines that any detail of this en-
terprise has been neglected. Chatta-
nooga has undertaken to entertain the
survivors of the Confederate army, and
there is no doubt whatever that the
goods will be delivered May 27-29.

reform in the tariff laws and the
representatives, without evading re-
sponsibllity, gave 1t to them. The
matter is now squarely up to the sem
ate and for the next two months at
least the most important political
question will be, what will the senate
do?
based on population or even if the
present senate had been elected di
rectly by the voters, there would be no
doubt of the result. AS the matter
now stands it is possible for the SEN
ators from three small and compare
lively obscure states to form a COM
bination that would defeat the will of
the people Of the entire country. A
small minority can sometimes nullify
the will of a very large majority.
Hereafter, the senators will be
elected by the people and although the
present senators nominally represent
their states, in reality they represent
the people of those states and should
they fail to recognize this fact, they
will be kept at home in the future.
The senate itself is on trial. II it
blocks tariff reform and kills the I'm
derwood bill, it may be paving the
way for its own abolition. AS it is,
many people look on the senate as
kind of royal appendage that might
easily be dispensed with.

THINKS
HAS CHANCE Of
APPOINTMENT
PENSACOLA LAWYER PRESSING
HIS CLAIM AND is BACKED BY
ENDORSEMENT OF WELL
KNOWN PUBLIC MEN IN THIS
AND OTHER STATES.
BY WINFIELD JONES.

Washington, May 19.-Hon. John s.
Beard, of Florida, who has been here
about a week seeking the appointment
is solicitor general of the United
States, still believes he has a chance
to secure the appointment, notwith
standing the fact that Attorney Gen
eral McReynolds told the party of
Floridians who called at the depart
ment of justice in his behalf a few
days ago that he, McReynolds, was
much inclined to give the office to q
man from a northern or western state.
Beard continues to get endorsements,
which he files from day to day at the
department of justice. He already has
a strong list, and if the attorney gen
eral should recede from his determin-
alton not to appoint a southerner,
Judge Beard would probably have an
excellent chance. Among his endors-
ers are the following:
Senators Fletcher, Of Florida; Bry-
an, of Florida; Vardaman, of Missis-
sippi; Bankhead, of Alabama; John
son, of Alabama; Swanson, of Vir
ginia;; Kern, of Indiana; and Smith.
of Maryland. Representatives Spark
man, Clark and Wilson, of Florida;
Clayton, Hef1in and Blackmon, of Ala
bama; Dies, of Texas and Goodwin, Of
Arkansas. Governor Trammell Of
Florida; T. F. West, attorney general,
of Florida: William S. Bryan, former
attorney general of Maryland; the en-
tire supreme court, of Florida; and
Judges Sheppard and Call, of Florida.
