Tribute to Gen. Grant

Speaking in the United States SEN
ate on the occasion of the unwilling
of the Grant memorial at Washing
ton, April 27, Senator Watson of
Georgia, paid Gen. Grant the follow
ing splendid tribute: Coming from
the South, as / do, I wish now and
here by unanimous consent, to pay
my tribute and that of the South TO
the memory of the great soldier who
at Appomattox refused to accept in
surrender one of the purest of human
swords--that of Gen. Robt. E. Lee in
behalf of the great section, whose
Army of northern Virginia Theodore
Roosevelt said was the greatest chat
ever took the field, | wish to say that
we honor General Grant and we love
him, because at the surrender he
was SO kind, so magnaminous as to
say to the ragged and starving Con-
federate soldiers: Take your horses
home; you need them in planting
your crops
Had General Grant been Presi-
dent after Mr.. Lincoln, we never
would have had the agony of recon
struction and the bitterness that fol-
lowed the Civil War.
II see him on that monument,
which is to be unveiled today and
which / think is one of sublimest con-
ceptions of the human brain, and /

proud that our reunited country pro-
duced this great captain and that his
family lived side by side with mine
in the old country-his just above
the Scotch border and mine just be-
low-and that the clans never had a
feud.
"We of southern blood and memoir
les bear in mind that when the adj
ministration which followed that of
Mr.. Lincoln threatened to arrest the
paroled Confederate officers. General
Grant virtually put his hand on his
sword and said to the President, in
effect: "You shall not do it. My hon

States dared not violate the pledged
word of General Grant.

which marked George Washington and
Frederick the Great, I see him writ

it is said, were equaled only by those
of Caesar. Having read them myself
and having read Caesar, ] quite agree
that the tribute was deserved.
HE was a great man, big-heart-
ed man, great general whose sword
had no poison on it; who conquered,

victory, acknowledged the sincerity OF

main farm were greeted by the sight
of the buildings adjacent to the house
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Allan being
in flames. The different members on
the Gilfillan Farms were aroused from
their well earned and honest slumbers
and what might have been very dis
astrous fire was confined to the area
where it started. AS near as can be
figured out, the cause of the fire was
in connection with the brooder, which
was in operation. Some two hundred
chickens were lost and a few house
hold goods that were stored in these
out buildings. Luckily, the other
buildings did not catch fire; thanks to
the neighbors help. One of the spec
tators present was heard to remark
that, if it were not for the financial
loss, he would like to witness similar
fires because it was great study in
human nature to see how people in
of excitement acted and
dressed.

Most People Have to be
Jared into Enterprise

A writer in Forbes Magazine tells
the story of a man who became a
home-owner by curious chance.
He was living in rented house
when somebody gave him a dog. The
dog had to have kennel, so the man
got some old packing boxes and made
one.
He had never made anything be-
fore, and making this house for his
dog was so much fun that he wanted
to make something else.
So he bought a small piece of land
on the outskirts Of the town, and with
the help of local carpenter built a
house for himself and his family.
If it hadn't been for that dog, he
would undoubtedly be still a renter
today. Says the writer who tells the

TURN YOUR CLOCK AHEAD

With the decision Of the manufacture
ers, school board and merchants to fol-
low the expression Of the citizens for
daylight saving, as made in the town
meeting, it means that the business ac-
tivities of the community are to be ad-
vanced one hour.
This situation can be met by actually
beginning the day an hour earlier with
out changing the clocks or by pushing
the clocks an hour ahead and through
following the clocks accomplish the
daylight saving object by adhering to
the hours which have previously been
observed.
Changing the clocks means decidedly
less confusion. All that is involved Is
to set your clocks ahead an hour Sat
urday night or Sunday night upon re-
firing and the continue to rise by the
changed clock at the accustomed hour.
Because it is impossible for the rail-
roads to operate on other than standard
time, they are not changing their clocks
but running their trains an hour earlier
than before daylight saving went into
effect Because it is the state law that
no other than standard time shall be
used by the municipalities and SUB d.
visions of the state, state departments,
cities and the departments Of cities adj
here to standard time but go to work
an hour earlier.
It is where there is a failure to get
together on the matter and settle upon
one time that confusion arises. Nc
greater benefit is obtained by changing
the clocks than by doing things an hour
ahead of previous schedules but 1t brings
about uniformity and overcomes the
necessity of figuring out the situation
every hour of the day.
Setting the clock ahead does the whole
thing in one operation. There Is tter
established the time until next Septem.
Der, when the time comes to turn II
back, and no more attention need to BE-
given It. It is the easiest way and the
way that will give uniformity with 9th
er communities.
Turn your clock ahead one hour. The
hour you seem to lose you'1l get bach
in the fall.

RETAINING TRoLLEY sERv1oE.

How unwilling are the people to give
up the advantages of trolley transpor-
tation is evidenced by the effort which is
now being made before the Massachu-
sets legislature to have measure pass
ed giving towns the right to aid in the
support Of such lines.
There are communities which have
been developed on the strength Of hav-
ing trolley service and they are serious
~ handicapped unless it Is continued.
Yet they cannot expect such lines to be
operated unless there is something bet
ter than a deficit each month to pay
for the rendition of the much desired
service.
Under this bill It would be possible
for towns to make up the difference be-
tween the cost Of and receipts from op-

coed a tax of two dollars on each one

massachusetts, IS not OF course the
only state in which the need Of such a
law has been made apparent by the
conditions under which the trolley lines
have been obliged to operate. Many
lines have been abandoned and it is
with a view to preventing such a move
that this bill has been presented. Loss
of trolley service Is a serious matter and
it doesn't appear with anything in tht
shape Of proper patronage that there
ought to be any heavy drain upon tbs
taxpayers through the proposed law.
