Why The Wine-Mess on Naval YES
sells Must Go

For this bomb that has been ex-
ploded thus cruelty in the wine-mess
of every ship in our navy, four men
seem to be jointly responsible. Secre-
tary Daniels, who halls from the pro-
hibition state of North Carolina, is
sued the order. President Wilson ap-
proved it. Rear-Admiral BREASTED, sur
geon-general of the navy, recommend
ed it. Colonel L. NJ. Maus, chief sur
geon of the eastern division of the u.
S. Army, seems to have instigated it,
Some months ago Colonel Maus
wrote an article on alcohol and
Racial Degeneracy," for the Journal
of the Military Service Institution.
This article, it seems, reached the eye
of Secretary Daniels. He sent it to
Rear-Admiral Braidsted with a re-
quest for his views on the subject.
On the admiraps favorable reply, the
secretary seems to have based his
order. Colonel Maus, in his article re-
fers to alcoholic drink as the most
battling obstacle to mans progress
and higher evolution" He refers to
tthe fact that Lord Kitchener allowed
his men no spirits whatever in the
Soudan campaign. that Lord Roberts
was equally opposed to it's use in
South Africa, and hiatt Sir Friedrich
Treves, who served as Ladysmith.
said that 1.-The drinkink men fell out
and dropped as regularly as if they
were labeled with the big letter d
on their Dacks." The colonel refers
to one of Lord Wolseley's expert
ments, in which his troops were divid-
ed into three marching squads. The
first had daily ration of whiskey, and
at the start it marched gaily ahead.
The second had a ration of beer. and
it soon overlook and passed the
whickey squad. The third SQUAD
marched on water 1t maintained an
even, steady gait, passed both the
other squads and reached it's destina-
ton long before the others. In the
maneuvers of the Connecticut militia

men fell out of the line in the hot
weather were declared inefficient by
the medical officers because of the
drinking of men.

HON. PERRY M. coLSoN

The Gainesville Sun pays the fol-
lowing hight tribute to Hon. Perry
NJ. Colson of that city, whom the
Courier-Informant has heretofore
strongly endorsed for appointment
to the office of register of the U. S.
land office at Gainesville.
Perry M. Colson is receiving the
hearty congratulations of the Gaines
vile friends upon being sufficiently
recovered from his long illness, last
ing more than seven years, to again
be at his desk attending to business
with his former zeal and vigor, which
will be very gratifying news to his
hosts of friends throughout the state.
''Mr. Colson belongs to that stall
wart pioneer family who located
among the Indians only a few miles
from what is now the present site
of Gainesville in the year 1924, being
the same year Alachua county was
organized.
"The friends of Mr.. Colson through
out the state, knowing his eminent
qualifications for register of said
office, have given him strong en-
dorsement for this position. We
doubt If any democrat in Florida ever
received more universal support for
a government position, which attests
the strong proof of his peculiar fitness
for this office, and his friends are
very confident he will pick this plum
at the proper time"

JUDGE EMORY sPEER EXPOSED

That Judge Emory Speer not only
accepted, but repeatedly requested,
concessions from the Central of Geor-

way, is disclosed in the publication as
a. house document of 1100-page book,
entitled, Conduct OF Emory Speer,

ton by subcommittee of the house
judiciary committee of the charges
against Judge Speer, together with all
collateral evidence and the judges
lengthy reply.
Copies of this book have been re-
ceived in Atlanta. Friends of the
judge were greatly surprised to learn
that the committee had secured the
original letters which passed between
Judge Speer and the railroads. In
fact, they say they did not know there
were any such letters in existence. 1t
is understood that the committee Sc
cured the entire files of the railroads
correspondence with Judge Speer,
covering a period of ten years or
more.
In one of his letters Judge Speer
directs the Southern Railway to put
car at his disposal for the transpor-
tation of his horses and furniture
from Macon to Mount Airy. In an
other letter he thanks the railroad
for its "unvarying courtesies" to him.

against Judge Speer, but that it will

May. Chairman Webb and Represent

THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY
FIRES A BRoADSiDE AT
JOHN BARLEYCORN

What is described in Washington
despathes as a tremendous sensa-
ton" was created last month by an
order consisting of barely thirty-nine
words issued by Secretary Daniels.
The sale of alcoholic liquors was
banished more than a decade ago from
the army canteens. and from all army
posts. Several years ago the sale of
liquor was banished from the capital
at Washington. Secretary Bryan has
within a little more than year dis
carded its use in diplomatic dinners.
and President Wilson has discontinued
it's use in the White House. In the
navy, however, John Barleycorn has
maintained a slight hold up to the
present time. Rations of grog have
not been issued to the men in our
navy since the Civil War, it is true,
and spirituous liquors have been taboo
for years in the officers mess. But
malt and vinous liquors are still al
lowed to the officers CT the navy. On
July / they also must go. This is the
order that goes into effect on that
date:
"The use or introduction for drink
ing purposes alcoholic liquors on
board any naval vessel, or within any
navy yard or station is strictly prohi-
bited, and commanding officers will
be held directly responsible for the
enforcement of this order"
The order applies not only to ships
but to naval stations, and not to the
sale but to the use or introduction of
alcoholic liquors for drinking @pur-
poses. Dismay is said to have taken
possession of the hearts of all Wash
ington has been excited

ertson; auditor, Mrs. Jake Brown;

Mrs. Tydings added her personal
tribute, after which Miss Cecile

Mrs. Davis is the first active mem
Der of the Woman's Club that has

which she was held by the club,
among whom her death is an irrepar-
able loss.
