Initiated at Chattanooga

As movement, The Southern Com
mercial Congress sprang full grown
from the Southern Commercial Secre-
taries' Association at the annual meet
ing OF that organization in Chat
tanooga in 1903, which decided that
there were certain conditions existing
in the South and outside OF it that
could only be met by union OF effort
and, further, that IL such a union of
effort did not exist, State by State,
throughout the South, then, without
waiting for the slow process Of grad
ual uni1cation a meeting should be
held to declare that such union did
exist. The organization was subse.

December 6. 1908, with the full dig
nifty of its name and its purpose, and
was incorporated under the laws of
the District of Columbia, July 81.
1911. The clear Judgment of the men
who started the movement is con-
frmed by the fact that in seven years
the words THE Southern Commercial
Congress" have become known
throughout the nation, the influence OF
its efforts for union have been felt
throughout the South, while It is now
recognized as a practical force for
good, both here and abroad.

Charleston An Example.
Charleston, where clustering tradi-
tons of the Old South have given
birth to the highest ideals and ambi-
tons. of the New South, is a most ap-
propriate place for this great peace
meeting of Americans. Here beside
the tomb Of Calhoun and under the
protection of the modern guns OF old
Fort sumter-here where the first shot
Of the Civil War was f1red-wiu be
celebrated the achievements of the
reunited country.
Looking back to the Charleston that
was blghted by the Civil War-to that
city which the anger Of a war-mad-
dened enemy laid waste--and conpar-
ing it with the Charleston of TODAY
which proudly points to the successfu,
development of its magnificent deep
water harbor, its great modern coal
ing piers, splendid system of docks.
and efficient Navy Yards, is found a
worthy example of the economic re-
Mobilization that is building "a Great
er Nation through a Greater South"
Charleston or Today.
In 1860 the population of Charles
ton was less than 40.0O0-today it en-
cecds $4,000. The inbound and out
bound commerce annually passing
through the Port of Charleston reaches
the total value Of nearly $110. 900, 600:
while the city's total banking. resources
approximates nearly $50, 900. The
manufacturing industries Of Charles
ton support a total capital investment
Of nearly $50. 900, 600. create new
wealth in annual products valued at
about s20,OO0,00O, and maintain an
annual payroll of over $4,000, 600.

spirit of the times" and it
is thus eminently fitting that this

the foreign commerce of the Southern
States was emphasized; the fourth
meeting of the series planned for 1914
and held at Muskogee. Oklahoma, was
devoted to a review of the problems OF
Agriculture, immigration, Public En-
cheney, and Foreign Trade as they
relate to the future economic develop

Grimky's Birthplace.
Charleston, where this great meet
ing will be staged, is the birthplace
of Thomas S. Grimky, one Of Americas
most brilliant advocates Of peace, who
helped to establish the American
Peace Society in 1928.
It was this son of the South who
said in 1882 that, 1.-THE greatest OBJ
Der of lives, and the amount of prop
erty it destroys, as it's moral influence
on nations and individuals. It creates
hatred and envy. It arrogates to it
self the prerogative of the Creator
only to involve the innocent multitude
in the punishment Of the guilty few.
It corrupts the moral taste, and hard
ems the heart; cherishes and strength
ems the base and violent passions; de-
stroys the distinguishing features OF
Christian charity. it's universally, and
| its love of enemies; turns into mockery
and contempt the test virtue of Chris
tians, humility; weakens the sense OF
moral obligation, banisheS the spirit
of improvement, usefulness and benev-
Iolence, and inculcates the horrible
maxim. that murder and robbery are
matters Of state expediency."
Law OF violence.
Among the many eloquent pleas FOR
the abolition of war that this early
citizen of Charleston uttered. Grinky'
famous dendneiation OF the law OF
violence" is possibly OF greater value
today than when it was written nearly
one hundred years ago.
War he said, els the law OF vio-
lence, peace the law OF love. But
governments seem to be successfully
organized only when strong for the
destruction OF others.

tested not to the reverse. that an ex-
pertinent of four thousand years would
suffice to prove THAI the rational ends

Albert, the six year old son of
]. w. Flowers, got on the New
port Sunday evening and went
to Yaquina and then boarded the
train and went to Corvallis. and
stayed over night and came
home on Mondays train. There
was a big crowd on the train
and the conductor did not notice
him. Albert said when he got
to Corvallis the marshal took
charge of him and turned him
over to the sheriff, who got a
good place for him to stay. The
boy said he got through all
right and was treated well by
everybody. Mr.. Flowers thinks
a woman and man tried to kid
nap the boy but failed. Albert
claims a woman led him on the
boat and then helped him on the
train. This may, or may not be
true. The boy might be mis-
taken. The folks were very un-
easy until the sheriff telegraphed
where the boy was. The bov
told the sheriff who he was and
where he belonged. Mr.. Flow
ers claims this is the oath child
that he is the father of and this
little fellow has performed a feat
seldom equalled.
| At a special council meeting
held Saturday evening an ordi-
nance was passed regulating the
rights and privileges of hacks
wagons, buses and automobiles
that come to meet the boat. A
space of ten feet wide across the
street must be left free to the
public. No vehicle must tress-
pass on this space. Heretofore
it has been so crowded when the
boat landed that people could
not get on the street. This
space should have been 25 feet
so as to give ample room, but the
ten feet will have to do for the
present.
Mrs. Patterson of Pittsburgh
Pa, arrived last week for a visit
with her son, Joe, the Oregonian

from the injuries the following

ried about him, fearing some ac-
cident might have befallen him.
His brother Jesse went to search
for him, and going to the barn
found Bond lying on the floor,
badly injured in the head, the
effects of mule kick. He was
still alive, was taken home and
a physician, DR.. Tharp of this
place, called. On examination
DIR. Tharp found the injuries ia
tai. He lived until Sunday
morning.

OF age, and was married about
a year ago. He was a Lincoln
county boy, having resided on

The lineup follows:
TOLEDO MAY HAVE
PULP MILL

A gentleman was here last
week looking over this territory
with a view to establishing a
pulp mill here. The mill would
convert our spruce and hemlock
timber into pulp which will be
shipped to outside paper mills,
where 1t will be manufactured
into paper.
There are large bodies Of
spruce and hemlock near Toledo
which can readily be logged, and
as material for the making of
pulp is getting very scarce in
other sections 1t is reasonable to
believe that such a mill may be
established here.
