GET READY ID GREET AND ALSO
 ACCOMMODATE TIE NEW TROOPS
(By B. F. Fly)

Col. French. of the Fist U. s. Infantry, together with three full companies of his regiment. will reach Yuma from Vancouver. Wash, by Monday evening or Tuesday morning. if there is no delay enroute.
 Within probably "A hours after the arrival of these now troops, companies A and D, of the 12th infantry regiment will entrain for Douglas, where they will rejoin their regiment, thus leaving Yuma in the hands of an entirely new set of soldiers.
 Col French is a veteran soldier, and said to be one of the most af- fable men in the United States army today. The fact that he is high ranking officer and has been sent to Yuma to make this "regimental head quarters" should of itself be sufficient inducement to awaken our entire citi- zenship to extend him and his loyal soldier boys a most cordial welcome, nor should anything be left undone that is at all calculated to show that we thoroughly appreciate his assign ment in our midst.
 A committee representing the City Council, with acting Mayor Moser at their head, together with President A. B. Ming and the Board of Directors of the Commercial Club, and other in- fluential citizens, should by all means meet the train and extend a hearty welcome to the new corners.
 In addition to that the committee should at once proceed to show Col. French every available place in and near the city as a suitable place for the soldiers to pitch their tents. Com ing from the extreme north, where it is almost perpetual winter, to a eli mate that is perpetual summer, will be very trying to the soldiers, and for that reason the very best location can not be too good for them, from health standpoint.
 It has been suggested that Prison Hill be thrown open to Col. French, for here the boys would have a per petual cooling breeze, and the build ings can very quickly be converted into comfortable sleeping quarters. MT. MOser, having this idea in view, has already taken the matter up with his aldermanic brothers, and they are heartily in favor of it.
 Mir. Sanguinetti, who occupies two of the buildings as warehouses, is per fectly willing to yacate in favor of the soldiers, realizing that this will be an ideal place for their home. It ID POSSiDA0' lAloC LhO fdlley Oeeu ASSo- citation can also be induced to give up the building they occupy, which then would leave only the Cement company as occupants of Prison hill. No doubt arrangements can be perfected to permit this company and the sol diers to occupy the place jointly, with out either hindering the other.

COMMITTEE PLANS TO
RAISE CAMPAIGN FUND
Alabama Democrats to Help Out in
Presidential Race

Every effort is to be exerted by the
committee in charge of raising campaign
funds in Alabama for the presidential
race to secure contributions from every
county and beat within the state. Plans
looking toward this have been adopted
by the finance committee for Alabama
named sometime ago by E. D. Smith,
national committeeman.
Committees are to be named for each
county and similar committees are to be
selected for the various beats. An es-
pecial effort is to be made to get con-
tributions of 81 and even less from thou
sands of democrats over the state. The
work is to be carried on in cooperation
with the national committee
1.-The first meeting of our state finance
committee was attended by Frank p.

from people who cannot donate any sum
above ST."
Mr.. Smith stated that he expected to
&C to New York probably within the next
few days to confer with members of the

NO REJECTION OF
CAVALRY TROOPS
Mayor Steiner Says Cordova and Car
rollton Units to Be Inspected

The cavalry troops being raised in
Cordova and Carrollton will probably be
accepted as units in the new regiment
if they meet the requirements of the gov
eminent and are Endorsed by Captain
Roberts, U. S. A. Information to this
effect was given The Age-Herald last
night by Mai. r. E. Steiner, who is to
be colonel of the cavalry troops Of the
state.
The statement was issued by Major
Steiner to correct an erroneous idea which
had been published to the effect that the
troops being raised in the two cities
mentioned above would not be accepted.
He announced that the war department
was anxious to secure a full cavalry reg
iment of 40 troops within the state of
Alabama and that all the companies being
raised would be acceped If they passed
inspection as had the first four.
1.-THE Carrollton and Cordova troops
are on the same basis as the others
which are yet to be inspected" said
Major Steiner. From reports we have
received, we expect both of them to pass
the inspection and be accepted by the
government without delay. We have
already arranged dates for the inspection
of both these troops. Any reports to the
contrary are entirely erroneous"

Dniester rivers.
Likewise Vienna comedies a retreat
of the Austrian forces before the Ru-
manians near Olah Toplitza, in eastern
Pennsylvania, 20 miles from the Ru-

in the face of a threatened enveloping
movement. To the southeast of this
same region the Rumanians have oc-
cupied the Gyeyrgyo Ditro Orsova pass.
In the capture of Turtukai fortress,
the Germans and Bulgarians took more

of great violence and that the losses on
both sides have been heavy.

Turks from their strong mountain de-

In addition, great aerial activity was

the French artillery fire that under it
