Washington City in Gala Attire

When I left Washington last Sat urday night 1t was in gala attire In honor of the Grand Army of the Re- public reunion which Is being held this week." said S. N. Charlton of the Dis trict of Columbia. q am the son of a union soldier and have attended sev- eral reunions of recent years, and was sorry to miss this one. which will be an exceptionally big affair. About 170.- 900 veterans belong to the Grand Army and it was expected that about 30,000 would be able to attend this years festivities.
 T was in Detroit last year when the redhion was held there. It was es- timated that 25,000 were in attendance But special effort was made to have monster parade in Washington this year-the semi centennial of peace be- tween the north and the south. While the number of survivors may seem large. it is not so when it is remem- bered that nearly S,O00,000 were in service on the union side.

Enthusiastic Over Warehouse Bill

OVtT N0FenOuSc Dhl
 One of the most helpful pieces of leg islation that was enacted by the recent session was, in my judgment, the uniform warehouse receipt bill, which was intro- duced in the legislature and passed at the instance of John B. Weakley and signed by the governor last week. and is therefore now a law said Robert w. Ewing, president of Roberts & Son.
 This uniform bill provides for uni form information to be contained in the uniform warehouse receipt two forms of which have been gotten up, one for pack ages, barrels and boxes and the other for bales of cotton. for which purpose the law will be most generally used
 "The law provides among other things that, first. the receipt, together with the stub. must be consecutively numbered. Second. that the receipts must show in their face the storage costs, which en- ables the purchaser of this receipt to tell at a glance the cost accruing against the cotton or other package each month. Third, the law provides that the receipts must be negotiable and that nothing l must be inserted that will interfere with | their negotiability, at bank or otherwise, which will tend to help us to carry cotton and other crops because of the nego-
 liability of the receipt. Fourth. the law provides that prior liens or advances, if any, must be plainly set out or stated
 in the body of the form, which is also
 a valuable feature, and which will encour-
 age the prompt discounting and handling or the loaning of money on these nego- l tiable uniform receipts by banks and others, not possible otherwise with the
 old form, where the passing of receipts did not in all cases carry absolute pos | session of the goods by indorsement. Fifth, the warehouse company also binds itself to deliver the goods to the bearer
 of the warehouse receipt when properly l transferred and indorsed, which means
 that the warehouses will take better care
 of the goods than ever before. and will
 almost uniformly keep goods so stored
 and covered by these receipts fully in- Isured
 Il think the people of tSe state generally should congratulate Representative Weak ley upon his good work in procuring the passage and the governors signature tc the uniform warehouse bill. of which there are, I understand like bills adopted in 3l other states in the union.'

Fifty Years Since Appomatox

The visit of Miss Mary Custis Lee, daughter of Gen. Robert E. Lee, to the White House this week to shake hands with President Wilson was of no little sentimental interest.
 Fifty years, after Lees surrender at Appomatox every trace of sectional bitterness has disappeared. It had disappeared in fact several years ago. The beginning of an era of better feeling was in the eighties. In Cleve- lands first cabinet were two distin- guished x-Confederates and many other high offices were filled by those who had fought under the stars and bars, but when the blue and gray be. gan to fraternize freely and cordial ly no one imagined, perhaps, that ir less than half century from the end of the civil war democrat born ana reared in the south would be elected President and that member of Gen
