SONS OF VETERANS!
John V. Quarles Writes a Stirring Ap"
peal For Local Organization.
W. H. GARDNER GAMP SHOULD THRIVE
He Calls For a Meeting to Perfect tlie Or
ganization in Order That May
Attend Reunion in Atlanta.
Some months ago a partial organiza
tion of William Montgomery Gardner
Camp of Sons of Veterans was organ
ized at the court house. There were a
number of officers elected and consider
able enthusiasm shown, but for some
reason interest has waned.
The Confederate Veterans’ reunion will
take place in Atlanta next year and the
camp of sons here should be in good
shape to attend.
Something should be done at once to
perfect the organization and make the
camp one of the best and strongest in the
country.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans are
rapidly taking an important place in the
organizations which revere the Confeder
ate cause.
For many years after the war, the
Confederate camps were organized by
the survivors of the war, and but little
thought was given to the boys who were
cradled during the stormy period, gpd
whose ceaseless play was uninterrupted
By reports from the front, or the sullen
sounds of contending armies.
Time, however, brought reminders to

Winter Hosiery.
Getting into high shoes, you
want something i eat, warm and
close fitting in stocking. We
thought of your wants in this line
months ago, when we had these
made. They are here now, an ele
gant lot of fine winter hosiery. Our
cost price makes them as cheap as
the common st) les
fa
g M -jp: ij—
The Reason Why
We are selling at cost is because
every day of this sort of weather is
a dead loss to us. We have winter
goods and you’ll surely need them.
A warm weather purchase will save
you a cold weather price Our ad
vice is to take the bargains we offer
and pay no heed to our losses or
you’ll get left,
the old soldiers in the thinning of their
ranks by death, and boys growing to
man’s estate, felt that it was their por
tion to perpetuate the deeds of their
fathers, and thus the Sons of Confederate
Veterans began the organization of their
camps.
Let us call a meeting and throughly
organize the W. M. Gardner camp.
The value of this camp to the younger
generation is inalienable. They in
spire the young with a reverence for their
ancestry. They teach them to hold in
high esteem, courage, patriotism and
fortitude in the vicissitudes of life. They
create within them a desire to emulate
the heroic deeds of their fathers in tin es
when personal responsibility is the ques
tion of the moment, and, greater still,
they keep them mindful of the great
sacrifice made by soldiers for their states
and for their Confederate country and
enthuse them with a love for the South
land which is their inalienable heritage.
The joining in of the annual reunions
of the Confederate Veterans fills the boys
with all the spirit of the occasion and
gives the full appreciation of all it means.
It is not for them to read of the deeds of
their fathers in nicely adjusted pages, or
recall their valor at the bidding of in
scriptions coldly traced in stone, but it is
their blessed privilege to sit with them
around the camp fires in the evenings of
life, to see their noble scars, to feel with
them the thrill as they catch the
sympathic motion of the march, inspired
by the same music, shadowed by the
same blood-stained battle flag and to
hear from their living lips the story of a
war great as gallant and bloody as it was
' brave. John W. Quarles.

THE HOME TRIBUNE SUNDAY. OCTOBER 24. IBV7.
NEW JUDGES TO BE NAMED.
Unusually Interesting »">• Dignified Po
litical Contest Now Shaping Up.
Montgomery. Ala., Oct 22.—One of
the most interesting and, perhaps, the
most dignified political contest that Ala
bama has experienced for years is now
shaping up. The next state convention
will nominate a chief justice and four
associate justices of the supreme court
of Alabama, these five constituting the
entire bench. The court now stands as
follows:
Robert O. Brickell of Madison, chief
justice; Thomas O. McClellan of Lime
stone; Thomas W. Coleman of Greene;
James.B. Head of Jefferson, and Jona
than Haralson of Dallas, associate jus
tices.
Chief Justice Brickell has declined to
offer for re-election. He is advanced in
years and prefers to retire to private
life. Justices Coleman and McClellan
aspire to succeed him. Justices Haral
son and Head will stand for re-election.
Circuit Judge John R. Tyson of this
city, and Chancellor J. R. Dowdell of
Tallapoosa have been announced candi
dates for associate justices for some
months.
It has been known for some time that
efforts have been made by the friends
of Judge Henry A. Sharpe, senior judge
of the city court of Jefferson county, to
induce him to permit his name to be
used for associate justice. He has not
seemed inclined to enter a contest for a
seat on the higher bench, but the de
mands of his friends have been so posi
tive that he has consented to allow his
announcement to be made.
This puts an entirely new phase on
the situation. There are now five very
able candidates for the associate bench,
and there are only four seats there. To
the average layman in politics it ap
pears that the real contest, after all,
provided there are no other announce
ments, will be between Judges Head’
and Sharpe. It is scarcely probable that
Jefferson county will be allowed more
than one of the supreme court judges,
and it is likely that the one of the two
gentlemen who wins out in Jefferson
will secure the coveted place.
The nomination of the judiciary will
be the feature in the next campaign be
fore the Democratic convention. Every
body .conceoes that Governor Johnston
I will be renominated without opposi
tion.
Besides the supreme court, all the
judges and solicitors of the court and
city courts will be elected by the people
or the legislature next: year. The terms
of all judiciary officers are for six years.
