jefferson Davis Memorial.

The Jefferson Davis Memorial, to
be erected at Fairview, KY, the BIRTH
place of the President of the Con-
federacy, will be the second highest
monument in the world. It will be
$50 feet in height and only exceeded
in that respect by the Washington
Monument. It will be constructed of
limestone, with steel reinforcement,
and will be in the form of an Egypt
ian obelisk. When finished the ma
terials will weigh 27,0O0,OOO pounds.
The shaft through the center will be
nineteen feet square. In the base
there will be room nineteen by nine
teen feet for the deposit of relics, and
on the sides of the shaft, cut with
electric etchers, will be carved the
names of all who contributed to erect
the monument.
Five thousand small banks, on
which are shown pictures Of the
monument and of Mr.. Davis, are be-
ing distributed among those who are
giving aid to the plan. Each bank
will hold fifty dimes, and only a
dime will fit into the slot prepared to
receive it. Every child who secures
one of these banks and succeeds in
getting it filled will have his or her
name carved on the inside of the
| shaft. School children throughout
the South should be encouraged to
help this worthy movement after this
manner.
The contracts have already been
let, and it is planned to dedicate the
obelisk on the 22d of October of this
year. This date has been chosen. it
is said, because the meteorological
records show that for one hundred
| wears the 22d day of October in
Kentucky has been rainless. The
Governor of Kentucky has said that
he will do all in his official power tc
make the unveiling of the great
monument one of the biggest days in
the history Of the state.
The Confederate Veteran, publish
ed monthly at Nashville, Tenn, and
devoted to the interests of Confede-
rate associations, ETC.. has this to say
in closing a descriptive story Of the
jefferson Davis Memorial, from
which the foregoing was extracted:
"Mr. Davis merits this grand tes-
timonial. He was great man, a
great soldier, great patriot, great
executive, great sufferer for the
South. and he deserves all that is be-
ing done by the indefatigable men
behind this enterprise. The memorial
is built to honor eternally the first
and only President of the Confederate

UTILITIES BOARD
PLANSNEW WORK

In the appointment yesterday Of H.
Gooding Field as its permanent audi
tor, the public utilities commission
has begun a movement toward revo-
lutionizing the conduct of its bust
ness.
According to Chairman W. T. Car
den periodical audits of the various
utility corporations will be made, and
this work will be, in Fields hands.
His salary will be $3.50 a month, be-
ginning August 1.
1T will prove cheaper, more con-
venient and more expeditions for the
commission to have a permanent au-
ditor instead of hiring one at a tenn
porary and higher salary each time
an audit is made" says Garden.
"One of the first steps WIN BE the
issuance Of a uniform system Of &C
counts in order to secure standard.
ization Of accounting methods for
utility corporations. A start has al
ready been made in this direction in
the establishing Of such a system for
telephone companies"

MOORF'S Charge
ONLANDS DENIED
BY RIVENbURGH
Continued from Page u

! the house territories committee, IN
which he charged that the bill. H. b,
4722, to amend the land laws OF Ha-
waii, is intended to check homestead
ing in the islands and to keep the
sugar lands In the control Of the big
corporations
Commissioner RiVenburgh was
shown the letter printed in yester'
days Star.Bulletin.
Il doubt whether Moore is fully In
formed regarding the homesteading
bill. | am convinced that after 10
minutes conversation with him
could show him that he was mistak-
en-" he commented He emphatically
denied that the bill was fostered by
the island sugar interests. He said
that Judge S. NJ. Ballou, representa-
tive OF the Hawaiian Sugar Planters
Association in Washington, was not
present when he appeared before the
territories committee to explain the
purpose Of II. B. 4722.
All the II members OF the ter
ritories committee we're present at
this hearing, but, as l remember, the
only Honolulans present besIues my
selft we're Col. Charles Mccarthy
treasurer, and Jack Desha, the dele
gates secretary, who happened to
come in for few moments during
the session"
The commissioner says the purpose
OF the bill is to get better and more
permanent class Of homesteaders and
to bring under cultivation arabic
lands that are not now producing
sugar Territorial income, as an OF
set to our bonded Indebtedness, must
come from the sugar lands, the main
stay of the islands, for the only other
income is from direct taxation, he
affirms.
Congressman Johnson Of Washing
ton was the only member of the com
mittee who was critical Of the home
stead bill, although all the members
took an intelligent interest in the
hearing on the proposed measure, he
Gays.
No recommendation has been made
regarding the bill by the territorial
committee, principally due to the
pressure of war matters on congress-
The Democratic members of both
houses Of congress-" he says, "have
agreed to press no bills that are not
concerned with food conditions, finan
cial measures or other actions de
handing quick disposition due to the
war emergency. The only exception
to this is on the recommendation Of
the president, and, Of course, we
would not ask for a recommendation
from the president on this bill, al
though it is distantly connected with
the food question"
