men themselves. he time is rapidly
approaching when the survivors of
the civil war, north and south, must
quit marching in parades as a spec
tacle for admiring eyes. It has been
almost fifty-one years since the bat
ties of Gettysburg and Cnickamauga
since the consuming flames of war
on those historic fields tried AmerS-
can valor and courage and found
them true. The average age of the
contestants in those titanic struggles
was twenty years; hence the average
age OF the survivors mus be seven
ty-one. In fact, very few men now
living who fought in the civil war
are under seventy. When a younger
man is found he entered the service
as a mere boy. a Confederate A-
rade brings these facts sharpts to
the attention. of members of The
y1Inger generation. The bent forms
ami white hairs OF the veterans are
reminders to their descendants that
but a few years more and ali must
pass to their last rewards.
Recognizing the declining years
of the Confederate veterans, Jack

tically approved theTw, Gen. Young
declared that Jacksonville was set
ting a precedent that would certainly
be appreciated, and paid a high COM

proposition.
Jacksonville has confidence in its
ability to carry out these plans. Tie
first change is made possible by 'su-
perior hotels, boarding houses and
Iprivate homes, all OF which will be

many hotels as Chattanooga; and
proa badly the same as Little Rock
and Macon. II those cities, two Of
which broke all records in attend
ance, took care OF all but $500 of the
! visitors, there is no doubt that Jack
sonville can care for a record-break-
! ing crowd and have room to spare.
The average number of veterans car
ed for at the Chattanooga camp was
1900. All other visitors were &C
commodated in the hotels, boarding

city. The attendance at the Chatta-
nooga reunion was 100, 900 Jack
sonville can easily accomm odate
$50, 900 because OF its superior hotel
facilities.

RAhsDELL POINTS
To ROME
AS Horrible Example, and Demands
Prohibition IF Divorce by
NatiSfal Amendment

Washington. Feb. 5.-Divorce
with the right to remarry would be
prohibited forever in the United
States, and in all places under the
nations Jurisdiction by an amend
ment to the federal constitution, pro-
posed in the Senate yesterday by
Senator RandsdeE, of Louisiana. En-
actment of uniform marriage laws
provision for separate ~ without PEI
mission to remarry, would be direct
Fed by the amendment
With the states of the union grant
ing more than twice as many divor-
combined Senator Randsdell told
his colleagues that the time had come
for the nation itself to put down this
menace t. the chief bulwark of So
ciety, the home-the maker. OF good
citizens, and the model on which ev-
cry wise government is founded"
The remedy by constitutional
prohibition is drastic said the SEN
ator. but the malady is so fatal that
nothing short OF it will prove efica-
cious. In the United States divorce
is spreading With alarming rapidity.
1t has permeated every walk of life,
and is prevalent among every class
of people. The total number of di-
vorces granted in 1867 was 9.937, or
27 per 100000 population.
Forty years later, in 1906, there
were 72,O62 divorces, or Sc per 100,-
600; thus, in actual numbers there
were more than seven times as many
divorces granted in 1906, as in 1867,
or, allowing for the increased popula-
ton, divorce has increased 319 per
cent.
'If divorces multiply al the same
rate in the future as in the past
tand there is every indication that
fore the middle of this century, we
will have annually in the United
States 275 divorces per 100000 pop
ulation, or one divorce for every five
marriages.
IF the United States were to write
in the constitution an amendment
prohibiting absolute divorce it would
not be taking such a radical step as
might at first be thought, but would
be following beaten path. Our
new state of South Carolina-all
honor to her-forbids divorce. It is
absolutely prohibited in Italy, Spain
and to two-thirds of the population
of Austria Hungary, while the Latin
American countries of Mexico, Ar
gentine Republic, Brazil Peru, Chile
and Others have similar laws.
While many excellent people are
divorced and some of them make
new homes, the inevitable trend OF
divorce is to break up many more
homes than it builds up, and to ma
terially reduce the number of child
rem. When marriage is dissolved the
true homes cease to exist; the par
ents and the children are separated
and the sweet ties that bind father

TACOMA. Jan. S.-The trouble be- tween the striking workmen and the deputies guarding the smelters here has increaAed instead of diminishing as the days go by and the lawless- ness of the strikers is creating reign of terror in the town.
 Having demolished all of the win dcws in the buildings of the shelter works some days ago the strikers be- gan to attack the gates with the in- tcntion of damaging inside if they cculd gain entrance. They were warned by the deputies on guard on the inside to keep away from the gates hut paid no attention. IIhv- ing failed to carry the gates by as- sault the strikers attempted to bat ter them down with battering rams in the shape of huge beams of wood. With a gang of men on each side of one of these beams the rioters backed off across the street and charged at the barred gates bringing the head of their ram against the locks. Sev- eral times this operation was repeat cd until the gates began to give way.
 When the deputies on the inside saw that in a few minutes they would be brought face to face with d mob of vastly superior force to their own and that if they were overpowered the buildings would probably be gut ted they prepared to resist the attack of the strikers with force.
 Hastily building barricadc behind the gates which were being attacked the deputies took up Il position there and again warned the rioters on the

 The appearance of the guards in an attitude of defence or of defiance, as they choose to take 1t, enraged the rioters and they gave up their i'm p"ovised battering ram for the tim" being and attacked the deputies with pistol shots.
 The men guarding the smelters re piled to this fire and during the course of the battle which ensued over three hundred shots were exchanged be- tween the defenders of the plant and tn, workmen on the outside of the gates.
