2VETSOFFFOR
DUBLIN REUNION
Old Soldiers Accompan-
led BY 4 Members Of
i. D. {.

Happy as boys starting for the cir
Gus, twelve Sumter county veterans
left Americas at 6:37 o'clock this
morning for the Georgia Confederate
reunion. which will convene tonight
at Dublin and continue through We'd
nesday and Thursday. They were
accompanied by four Sumter county
members of the Daughters of the
Confederacy.
The veterans were under the care
of Capt. Joe Day Stewart, post adju-
tant of Camp Sumter, U. G. ", who
was at the Central station early and
took pains to see that all had their
certificates properly signed and their
tickets purchased when the train pull
ed in, and then that they all got
properly located in the train.
The Sumter veterans were given
places in a special coach attached at
Albany, and occupied only by Albany
veterans, bound for Dublin. This car
will be transferred at Macon and sent
through to Dublin late this afternoon
making it unnecessary for the veter-
ans to change cars. However, with
about six hours to wait in Macon to-
day few of them are expected to re-
main in this special car all of the
time
The ladies accompanying the veter-
ans were Mrs. H. A. G. Bagley, Mrs.
Mary L. Hargrove, Mrs. Rena Belle
Horne and Miss Matte Lou Horne.
Mrs. Frank P. Harold, president of
the Georgia U. D. c., decided at the
last minute not to make the trip, feel
ing that it would tax her physical
strength too much, as she is soon to
make a number of visits to chapters
of the order which she heads through
out Georgia, and has recently made
several such trips. Miss Lois Nc
Math, one of the maids of honor, left
for Dublin Monday and will be
among those already there to greet
the veterans upon their arrival.
The veterans making UP the Am
ericus party were: w S. Moore, COM
mander of Camp Sumter; Capt. Joe
Day Stewart. adjutant; G. M. Greene,
w. P. Persons, A. j. Hutchinson, R.
R. Arlington, N. T. Fulford, N. F.

REGENCY WOULD BE
FOUGHT BY LIBERALS

Emperor 1oShhlto is about Al
years old. He assembled the Japanese
throne in the summer of 1912, when
his great father, Mutsuhito, died.
Mutsuhito will always be famous as
the emperor under whom Japan bios
somed out of barbarism into civili-
cation in few decades.
Yoshihito is the 122nd emperor of
japan in direct line of succession, the
dynasty being the oldest in the world.
In fact, this ruling line runs back be-
fore japanese written history; but
Emperor Jimmu Tenno, who lived in
600 B. c., is generally accepted as
the founder of the dynasty.
The average reign of the whole line
is 20 years and seven mikados, the
old title of the ruler, were women.
Each mikado had a personal name,
but no family name. Each also has
a posthumous name by which he or
she is known in history.
Mikado Means Exalted Gate"
The title mikado, meaning "Exalt-
ed Gate" was the official designation
of this sovereign for more than 1000
wears and the name occurs in poetry
and history through the whole range
of Japanese literature.
The mikado was himself ruled for
MANY centuries by Shotgun, sort
of prime minister, but in 1867, this
high lord was done away with and the
emperor became real autocrat.
In Japan the government is con-
stitutional monarchy more like Ger
MANY was under the kaiser than as
England is under the king. AL
though there is a parliament which
has been gaining in Importance and
ynsnect of the masses of late years, it
is still very much subordinate to the
ruler :,
The emperor is really a screen be-
hind which the representative of the
old feudal aristocracy, known as eel
dor Statesmen control the whole
country, it's politics and its eco
nomics.
men were semi-independent princes
continually waging war with each
other and with the dominant shogun.
In the half-century or more since
Japan changed from barbarism, they
have been bending every effort to

Fragmentary Advices
Keep Situation Still In
Doubt
(Bv Associated Press. }

Advices from Mexico on the revo-

All Mexico, in fact, except the states
