GLOWING TRIBUTE"
To the Young Men of the Sooth Daring
the Civil War Period
THE BRAVEST AND BEST'
Itev. E. A. Osborne Makes Interest]
ing Comparision Between tho Spir- j
It of the South and the Conditions (
I
at the Time of the War With |
t
Those of the Present.
At a meeting in Charlotte, >?. C.,
>?v flonfederate VeteranB on Mon- 1
(
day to pay tribute to the memory of (
Admiral Ralph Semmes. the great <
Confederate naval hero, many excel- 1
lent speeches were made. Rt. Rev.
E. A. Osborne spoke with reference
to the spirit of the young men of I
the South during the civil war pe- I
riod and the exalted type of leaders <
produced, whch he does not believe
could be duplicated Xoday under
similar conditions. J
"Perhaps this country will never (
produce again," he began, "just such
a race of men as that which lived <
in the last century. Especially does
one feel this to be true of the great
leaders of the South. We may produce
as great men or greater men
even in different directions, for the
world Is growing. Humanity is not
diminishing at all In its powers. Jt
is developing under Christian civilization.
But the . conditions under
which Semmes and the other great
kaders were born and reared were
p<Mruliar and have now passed away.
Especially was this so of the South.
I don't suppose that a more patriotic
race of men ever lived than that
which peopled the South. Their
life was rustic, 9imple, plain, unpretentious.
These are the very conditions
that are calculated to produce
the spirit of daring, self-reliance
and manhood. They produced those
pplendid qualities of human nature.
"The Southern army illustrated
that. It was not a well-disciplined
army. It was not a remarkably well
drilled army, but it was one of men
?men who loved freedom, men who
loved their homes, men who loved
constitutional liberty, men who loved
their own simple life. They
didn't care much about money. It
was not & money-making age in the
South, with one or two exceptions.
Here and there a fortune had been
accumulated, of course. But the
vast majority of the men in the
Southern army were of limited
means; men who owned little homes
in the country. To own the soil 1b
a necessary condition of patriotism.
Commercial men who do not own
their homes or who are so much interested
in business that they spend
little time at home do not possess
the same love of home and country
that rural life produces. They want
to live and enjoy their wealth, too.
The man who owns his little home in
the country, whose living depends
on his tilling of the soil, lives for
his home and his family and will
yield the last drop of blood in his
body to resist any invasion by hostile
forces.
\ > "And so, while we have a pa.^sionate.
tender and romantic love fc
the South," contimied Colonel Osborne,
"IUoubt very much If under
similar conditions today we would
be able to produce as strong examples
of courage, fortitude and daring.
I believe we, especially the people
of North Carolina, are a warlike
race. I ro not believe there is
one more so on the American continent.
When the United States called
for troops in the war with Spain
the young men of the South hurried
forward. It was my privilege to be
with them tor a time. I saw the
same enthusiasm which I had seen
40 years before. But I saw also a
different class of men, a different
spirit and a different state of morals
from tha{ which prevailed on the
previous occasion. -I cannot but
doubt If they would have shown the
same dash, the same absolute confidence
in the rectitude of their cause
and in their duty to fight.
"It thrills my soul with a peculiar
sensation to think of the wonder?Anino'

armies. Very likely the world will
never witness again such a brilliant
galaxy of men. Christian men. of
cultivated minds', broad and deep
learning, soldiers, who trusted in
tho Triune God for the justice of
their cause and willingly laid their
lives on the altar.
"I shall never forget the feeling
of pride and joy the soldiers of the
Confederacy felt when they thought
of the glorious Semmes dominating
the broad ocean and bringing terror
to the enemy. While the hosts of
United-^States ships were hovering
about the coasts keeping out what
little bit of commerce the South
might have received, this one man
was frightening the ships of the enemy
out of their wits."

)ne Thousand Little Ones Scared by
Fireworks Stampede With Fatal
Results to Little Girl.
Terrified ' by Dlack Hand stories,

The fatally injured child is Marianna
Zeelackhky, 7 years old; the
Dthers comprise five little girls and
jight boys, all ranging from 7 to 10
years in age. All are in Jersey City
hospitals, but it is believed that all
win rtxuvvi.
The school house, a three-story
brick building, is a stone's throw
from an Italian church which had
obtained a permit to set off fireworks
during a church celebration
Monday. A rumor got out last week
among the children In lower Jersey
City schools that threats had been
made to blow up the school with
dynamite.
The children had been particularly
nervous about It, and when the
bombs went off suddenly, they ran
from the recitation rooms Into the
halls and down the stairways.
There are two street doorways but
one of them was closed. At tho
closed entrance there occurred a dis
aFtrous jam. iiere several 01 me
smaller children were trampled Into
unconsciousness while others ran
back into the building and sprang
through open windows 15 feet to an
ireway below.
Policemen and passersby, attracted
by the cries, rushed to the scene,
but order was not restored until 14
children had been seriously hurt.
A report spread quickly that there
were eight dead and hundreds of
mothers mingled in the crowd,
.nourning, weeping and adding to the
general confusion. This is not the
first riot of its -kind in Jersey City
-is the children of the foreign element
are constantly In fear of the
"black hand."
CURTAIL S MAYOR'S POWERS.
fudge Aldrich Renders an Important
Decision.
An appeal case from the mayor's
:ourt involving an important ques:ion
of jurisdiction, was decided before
Judge Aldrich in the Sessions
court at Anderson last week. The
appeal was from a decision of the
mayor imposing a fine of one hundred
dollars or thirty days for Belling
whiskey, and the decision reversed
the mayor.
Appellant's counsel took the position
that the mayor's court had nc
jurisdiction to try a defendant charged
with selling whiskey, maintaining
rhat the mayor had only concurred
urisdiction with the magistrate, and
hat, as the statutes gave a magisrate
no jurisdiction to try such a
iase the mayor was bound by the
dame statute's limitation. The general
statutes give the mayor of the
:ity the same powers as a magisrate,
and it was argued by counsel
?or the defense that a city counsel
;uu 1 u uui CAICIIU uj uiu?uauv,tj I"*:
jurisdiction defined by the Legisture.
The decision of Judge Aldrich in
^ase it 1? sustained by the Supreme
ourt will be of the most far reaching
consequences. It might seriously
hamper the enforcement of the liqour
'aw in every town and city in the
State. All that the police department
of a city could do would be
o make arrests and have warrants
issued by a magistrate. The magistrate
would then, if upon a pre'imlnary
hearing the evidence warants
it, send the case up to the Sessions
court for trial. The decision
haB attracted a great deal of inter?ft
here. The city will appeal to the
Supreme court, and a decision of that
tribunal will be awaited with generil
interest over the State.

REFUND REBATES
i.
The Bernhein Distilling Company of
LodisriDe, ly.,
MAKES RESTILimON
Concern, Once Represented by Farnnm
Agrees to Pay to the Wlnding-Up
Commission 930,000, Although
the Commission Has x no
Claim of Overcharges.
The Columbia correspondent of
The News and Courier says following
a conference last week between
the winding-up commission of the old
State dispensary and the representatives
of the Bernhelm Distilling Company,
of Louisville, Ky., the company
Monday announced that it will refund
to the State overcharges on
liquor amounting to |30,000. The
company, which was represented before
the old State board of control
by James S. Farnum, acquitted Saturday
of bribing Jos. B. Wylie, then
a member of the purchasing board, to
give the concerns represented by
Farnum the preference in purchasing
liquors, admits the overcharges and
says it is willing to make good this
much of the State's loss.
' The refund is voluntary on the
part of the company, as the old State
dlsDensary board of control bad ef
fected a complete settlement with
the concern before the winding-up
commission took charge of the affair
of the dispensary when the institution
was legislated out of exlstance,
and the company never haB put in
a claim for money due It for the
liquors sold to the dispensary, as
has been done by many of the other
houses, which bad been awarded
contracts for liquors.
A^nmov <i*>nAral i-vons was asked
about the matter. He said that the
facts in the case were that the Bern,
heim Distilling Company had ofTered
to the dispensary commission $30,
. 000, and that the money is on de,
posit in the Louisville banks. The
fact that this company wished to
turn over this large sum of "money
came over the telephone from tiie
Atlanta firm of Anderson, Felder,
Rountree & Wilson. It is under:
stood, though not obtained officially,
that the Atlanta firm secured the
settlement, but it also appears that
, the money comes voluntary. The matter
is settled now, and the money
belongs to the State of South Car,
olina.
The remarkable part of the whole
J transaction Is that the Bernhetm
I firm bad no claim against the State
, of . South Carolina.
| The money that the State owed
this firm had been previously paid
up and the books were closed. To
( offer $30,000 and then to turn the
money over is clearly an admission
r that there were overcharges.
"Although there had been a general
I understanding that some of the whtakey
flrmB might possibly "cough up"
this transaction is a new one in its
nature. It is known James S. Farnum
represented the Bernheim firm
here during the days of the Stale
dispensary. In the recent trial of
I Mr. Farnum it was mentioned in
I the testimony that this was one of
( the firms that he represented. The
payment of $30,000 to the State Is
taken as an adml&sion that the State
was overcharged at least this much
' and that rebates were paid. Tbi#
is the only difference that can be
drawn. Aside from the fact that
the money has been tendered the
State, It was very difficult to obtain
any official information.
It was known recently that there
was a secret meeting of the dispen'
sary commission and very probably
this matter came np at the time.
There is speculation as to what
effect that $30,000 "money" tender
will have upon the alleged graft
trials. The effect upon the other,
can .easily be guessed, though, that'
no immunity is guaranteed when
the commission accepts the $30,000.
It might be aflded, however, that
another good guess is that one of
the Bernheim people would be prosecuted.
The proposition they advance
is fair enough on its face, a return
to the State of $30,000, when no
claim is outstanding, and this is.
comparision with a figuring upon
the alleged rebate schedule that,
would look something like $40,000.
for alleged overcharges. That looks
pretty good for Sotfth Carolina.
This case that is brought today
I? but one of the many matters that
the State dispensary investigation
has brought about. What the moral
effect will be cannot be estimated,
but the State of South Cuulina' ?s
$30,000 to the good. As brought out
before the dispensary winding-up
commission the Ilernheim Company
was one of the trio including aieo
the Big Four people, and one other
concern, all of which the commission
was disposed to class as one concern.
In the present transaction a confer
eoce of attorneys was held, and many
other details which probably will
be brought out later.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
were seriously handicapped duric
the past season In meeting the
financial obligations, and in the real
zatlon of that prosperity that
rightfully theirs, by the distressing
low price of cotton, yet the farme;
of. the South can easily overcon
these grave difficulties by a moi
marked adherence to the principle
of their different organizations in tl
future than in the past, says Pa
Williams in the Macon Telegraph.
The fact has been demonstrati
that the thing for the Southern farr
er to do in order to obtain a legil
mate price for his cotton is to brii
himself to the point where he ci
; hold it just as long sb he wants t
but before this can be done it
absolutely necessary that he rai
his food products at home. Tb
is the main thing to do in ord
j to make Southern agricultural co
ditlons assume a more satisfacto
aspect.
Let the Southern farmer imm
diately resort to the wisdom ai
advisability of raising his own foi
supplies instead of depending f
them upon the Western farmers, a:
a wonderful change will be broug
about in the agricultural eituatii
down South. In fact, such a wond<
ful change that the cotton mark
win nearly always present a ouin
aspect, because the control of t
price of the fleecy staple will ha
been wrested from the grasp of t
Wall street manipulators and pis
ed in the control of the Southe
farmers.
Then there will be no repetiti
of the very unsatisfactory and depl<
able conditions that existed to su
a striking extent last fall, trem<
dously handicapping the farmers
cancelling their pecuniary oblif
tions. No*bills will have to be ci
ried over for another year, but del
will be paid promptly, and farme
bankers, merchants and others
terested will enjoy the splendid p'n
perity that ie the Inevitable res

Unless they remain steadfastly

means low prices for their cotl

ant upon it. The agricultural m
ror In tbe South reflects a very j
state of affaire, indeed.
It reflects the heart-rending sp
tacle of thousands upon tbousar
of farmers bowing down to the p
fessional gamblers of Wall stre
suffering tbe terrible and almost t
bearable humiliation and mortifi
tion of having others dictate I
price of the products that they hs

It reflects the sad picture of t
farmers having to mortgage th
homes and plantations in order
alleviate the terror o? low prit

It shows the aristocratic gent
men of Wall street growing rich
the labors of the Southern farme
buying their cotton of their o'
prices and then coining raillic
of the silver wheels by gambli
and speculating with the fleecy s
pie. It reflects the sad picture of t
Southern tillers of the soil losi
millions and millions of dollars z

By a little more progressive

' Every Existing Record Broken by

Chevrolet in Buick Car.
A dispatch from Riverhead, Long
Island, says the smashing of every
existing American record for auto1
mobile racing on the openroad, and
a spill which cost the life of a mechanican,
James Bates, and serious
, injuries to Herbert Lytle, a well
known reacing driver, marked the
running Thursday of the Long Island
Automobile Derby. The event
[ was a rtock car sweepstakes and was
run over 22 miles of hitherto untried
rr?aH af tho onntnrn pxtrp.mltv of LiOUf
' i Island, between Riverhcad and Mattituck.
The casualties were caused by tho
* ekidding of the Apperson car, driven
' by Lytle and Cachaniclan Bates had
completed less than two-thirds of
; the first lap when the sixty horsepower
engine, tearing down a slight
declivity at a rate of 65 miles an
hour, suddenly lurched to one side
1 into deep sand and overturned.
Lytle shot clear of the car and
landed twenty feet away on his back.
Bates, however, clung to the machine
and was crushed under it as it
turned turtle. Bates died an hour
later. But Lytle was able to recognize
his wife and baby who were
hurried to his bedside at the hospital
immediately after the accident I
and there is hopes of his recovery. 5
