TO REMOVE MONUMENT
TO LINCOLN'S SLAYER
(By the Associated Press)

Birmingham, Ala, June A move
ment looking to the removal of
statue erected at Troy, Ala, just af-
ter the Civil war to John Wilkes
Booth, slayer of Abraham Lincoln, has
been launched by Mrs. Cal D. Brooks,
president of the Woman's League Of
Republican Voters of Alabama.
Mrs. Brooks declares that protests
against the statue have come to the
league from many sections of the
country and she believes the time has
come when such acts as placing the
shaft twill be frowned upon by all
good citizens of the south, regardless
of party affiliation."
An injury has been done the south
as whole, she says, and wrong I'M
preston created north, east and west.
In order that there may be zone har-
monious union of interest. north, east,
west, and SOUTH" Mrs. Brooks has
called upon all political faiths of the
south to join the league in plans to re-
move the Booth shaft.
:, The statue was erected by funds
gathered by semi-public subscription
at time what partisanship was keen
and when Booth was looked upon by
some as benefactor and hero The
league claims that this was not the SEN
timent of the south at that time and
that the surviving few who had hand
in the erection of the shaft will not
object to its removal.

The Story of
Our States
BY JONATHAN BRACE
XLI.-WASHINGTON
THE story
J ! !: !: !: !. !: !: !
~A.2N ington, the
NJ nan ty-second
Ia lSN state of the
w ~ XII Union, is tied
~9oyEW up with two
a1N2 of our presi-
dents. The first is obvious, for
1t was in honor Of our first presi-
dent, George Washington, that
the state was named, as a last
ing memorial to this great SOL
dier-statesman. But the actual
fate Of this region was due to
President Polk, and formed the
main issue in his campaign for
election in 1914.
Previous to that time, the
country north of California and
extending to Alaska, which was
then owned by Russia, was called
the Oregon territory. Claim was
laid to this region by both Great
Britain and the United States as
has been seen in the story Of
Oregon. In 1918, when the boun-
dairy between Canada and the
United States was settled. this
line was definitely placed from
the Atlantic coast to the Rocky
mountains. But no agreement
could be reached west of that,
and ii was left under an arrange
ment whereby this territory was
to be Jointly occupied by the
British and Americans.
Settlers from the United
States began to come into the
Northwest in such numbers that
the United States felt that they
should own this section, which
included the present states of
Oregon and Washington, and
British Columbia, through the
right of possession. Agitation
in favor of actively pushing our
claims became so strong that
when Polk was nominated by the
Democrats in 1874, one of the
main planks in the party plat
form was the famous one popu-
larry called, "Fifty-four forty or
fight"
In 1916 a peaceful settlement
. was made with England on
!: compromise basis.
In 1853 Washington territory
d. was separated from Oregon. 1t
d: did not, however, become a state
I. until 1889. and then only after
: thirteen years petitioning for ad-
=: mission.
