LINER MNew York, May I.—The red flag the soviet was hoisted over the United States liner Reliance today by .35 American miners who sailed with their wives and children for Russia to work in the mines of the autonomous industrial conoy Kuz bas. A large delegation of officials from the American soviet headquar ters went aboard to speed the de parting and witness the flag-rais ing. Among them were several of the Kuzbas chiefs who yesterday were indicted for the second time on grand larceny. An interested spectator to the ceremony from a distance was Vic tor Berger, socialist member of con gress from Milwaukee. The flag of the outgoing colon ist was nearly as large as the Pana manian colors, which have streamed from the stern of the Reliance since she went under the registry of the Isthmian republic. All the miners and their familiei ■were well dressed and well equip ped and had the appearance of prosperity. Each was said to have become an investor in Kuzbas, as a condition to becoming a member o{ the colony. . TURKS WARNED NOT TO CONCENTRATE ON SYRIA Will Be Compelled to Take Other Measures. Constantinople, May 1. —The French charge d'affaires today warned the Turkish nationalist gov ernment in Angora against the con centration of Turkish troops on the Syrian frontier.

LIQUOR DISTILLERY RAIDED IN JEFFERSON The liquor “still” raided in lower; Jefferson last Thursday was one j of the largest ever discovered in j this section. Sheriff D. C. Thomas, j of Jefferson County, Mr. M. Y. Fooshec and S. B. Hardy, IT.l T . S. revenue officers, made the raid. The i still was located on a little island in the Rocky Creek Swamp, about five miles below Wadley. When the officers approached the still no one was on the site but one negro who was engaged in cutting wood. When the negro saw the approaching of ficers he made a dash for the woods. Sheriff Thomas states that they .discovered six huge wooden vats each having a capacity of 1,000 gallons. These vats were filled with mash or beer and the sheriff states that it was likely that the still was to be operated the night of the raid- Only four gallons of whiskey were found and the officers were of the opinion that the outfit was anew one, not having operated hut one time. The huge copper still was a factory made outfit with a 200 gal lon daily capacity. The cap from the still was brought to Louisville and the other portion of the still as well as all useful items like lumber, sugar, sacks of hops, etc., were burn ed on the spot. The still is said to have been located on land owned by the Pinetucket. Development Com pany. Louisville Man Finds Dairy Farm Profitable Mr. C. H.

Mallory. Madame President, Daughters of the Confederacy, Confederate Vete rans, Ladies and Gentlemen: Something like a feeling of deep humility comes over me as 1 stand hercthis morning, humble in the pres once of these men of the Sixties who have wrought so well and fought so valiently in the days past, humble in the fact that I, a son and nephew of the Confederacy, should be called upon to bring to you the message of the hour. Were we confident that the spirit of those brave men : (whose names wc honor) were pres ent today, we might take courage and move amid their memories to j higher ground of thought. When I was asked to be your speaker today, this thought crowded into my mind. “What is Memorial Day?” Not that I did not know, but to pursue it to its least meaning. 1 recognized that wc of the South come together to put wreaths of flowers upon the graves of those I who had gone before, and to eulogize those left behind. But when 1 began to study the true meaning of the word, 1 found that Memorial has several meanings and I shall try in a 1 small way to review some of these.; In the first place. Memorial means to bring to memory those things that are past. Hence, we who were too young to know just the hard ships through which these men of the Sixties passed, we arc by this day enlightened, and by our enlight enment made to love and cheer these men that through those bloody and sickening days, have been preserved to give us the highest ideals of Southern courage and chivalry. To them we bow in great reverence, and we would lay at their feet the wreaths of flowers gathered from the garden of our love and respect. 1 do not like the idea of recalling all those horrible scenes that occur red during the Civil War, for St. Paul says. “Putting those things that are passed behind me. I press forward.” And yet, some of those things are refreshing and worthy of emulating. With comparatively few in number, we entered that war to hold in check the balance of the world. For it is an historical fact that the North drew from the outside world, and there they were not able to overpow er us until we had worn ourselves out whipping them. Here in the South by these men. the world caught the true meaning of the word courage, bravery and determination. Again the world learned the true meaning of the word conserving and preserving all those resources left in our hands. For he it said to the credits of our Southern people (our wives and our mothers doing like wise) thatthe world had never known such wonderful work to be accomp lished with such small supplies as wc had. etc. Yet, sacarifices which we were called upon to endure, the privations we underwent, yet so far as 1 am able to learn( with the ex ception of a few camp ruffians and toughs' these men never forgot they were gentlement. I need not remind you of the great number of battles through which you passed .the hardships that were yours, but all those you gladly underwent because you believed the cause for which you fought was right and in following such men as Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jockson, you dared and died because you knew these men were men of God, and by His leadership they made but few mistakes. And now, dear friends, while I am a Southerner, born and bred, having been horn in Jefferson county, hav ing some of General Cheatham’s own blood flowing through my veins, yet will you allow' me to say that the best thing that ever occurred was when we, having been overpowered, waked up to our own responsibility and duty. Prior to the war, we wer growing pompus and proud, with our slaves to do our slightest wishes. After the cause was lost, we no lon ger rested on what others might do for us, but we began to sec through a glass dimly, that if we would take our places in the world we must arise, shake off the feeling of despair and go forth to conquer, not our enemies, hut ourselves. You will recall that after the surrender you came staggering home, you found all in ashes and ruin; enough to stagger the stoutest hearts. But, into the ashes of dispair, you planted the seed of determination to soon see the flowers of hope put forth its fragrance upon the balmy air, and today, Bless God, you and your chil dren and grandchildren are reaping the fruit of glad frutition. I would speak of some of those things which the South has accomp lished. Ist. The world must need have clothing. So when the Southerner Three Boys in Their'Teens Plead For Those in Hills of The South Chicago, May I.—Three boys in their ’teens, carrying in their veins purer Anglo-Saxon blood than many much vaunted “May flower” descendants, stood be fore the Chicago Rotary Club today and asked that five mil lion brothers and sisters and their parents in the hills of the south be “given their birthright as American citizens to fulfill their destinies to the limit of their possibilities.” Coming from the mountain section of Kentucky, the three boys told of community center work in their own county and made a plea for assistance in establishing like centers in the 165 mountain counties of Ken tucky, Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina and Tenn essee. Corbett Franklin, 16 years old, told of the Virginia coast peo ple, who moving westward to ward the plains, became lost in the mountains, settled there and dropped out of the onward realized that now his help had all been freed (having been hardened hv four years of conflict), you put your hand to the plow and as good true soldiers you knew that here too you had found your place in the world. And as the white man of the South began to touch the Mother Earth, she felt your carress and kiss ed back with her best yield. So lhat, today more clothing is made from what the South produces than any other material. Again, you realized that the morals of your people must be maintained. So you said that we must be obe dient unto God, and today (barring some locations and some infringe ments) the South is the only sec tion of the world who observes the Sabbath and in whose borders still linger the highest type of that Holy Ghost religion. Thank God for the Southern religion. Now let me speak of the educa tion and improvements along that line during these last four year. Be fore the Civil War, as all know, there was a great deal of illiteracy. Few' schools and colleges, and these were attended only by the rich and afflu ent. Did you know that when the war was over the South had to over come all the obstacles and build an entirely new' system of education. Do you realize that today there is inly 5.4 per cent of illiteracy among the whites of Georgia? And the most of this is among the mountains of North Georgia. And you know that four years ago there was in Georgia more than fifty counties in this state which did not have a four year high school, and that now there are only four and these have church schools that largely supply their needs? Oh, how we have gone for ward along this line. And will you allow me to say that while there is still 5.4 per cent of illiteracy among the whites of Gcrogia, vet I would rather have this percentage among people who have true American ideals and life, than to have less il literacy and have our people taught those things that strike at the foun j elation of our great civilization. Mould you know why we have ! made such progress? It is because ! wr> of the South have always de ■ manded that these men and women who teach in our schools must be members of some church. No won | der. therefore. from these <'hildren ha\p come the highest ideals of true citizens and patriots. I would speak of the political sit uation. I am, as a Southerner, truly I glad that after the war we become | th*’ Democratic South. The Solid South. We believe that we should have our ballot boxes pure, and while j some have degraded this great privi ! lege yet wc of the Eouth have sought i to insjill into our sons, and now our | daughters, that the issue for which we vote should be right and good. This is the land of the white man’s ballot, and if you should ever be tempted to vary from the true path in your ballot, remember the South wants the highest and best on every mans vote. Is it any wonder that when the great fire of War was beginning to he fanned, that the United States be gan to east about for a president who could guide the ship of State to safety, she found the man in the South? Then when that Godless na tion said you shall not sail the God given ocean, and when our own wo men, children and men were drowned and sunk to a watery grave, when our own United States cried out to War, who hut a Southern born gen tleman, a scholar and statesman, could direct more wisely, Godly and just, than he whom we said should lead us. He, who having been rear ed in a Southern Christian home, called the nation to prayer, and into the vortex we threw’ four million men, and into the crux of the fight we began to push back aerss the Rhine, the enemy of civilization. And who was it that at the table of peace wrote the fourteen articles of peace but a Southern gentleman? And when the horrors of the World War shall all he forgotten except as pages of history, the name of Woodrow' Wilson shall live forever. Now all these things I have brought to your minds to show you that the old South is still doing her part. Not anew South, for why should we forget her place in the world’s history', but the old South bedecked with new ideals and ap perations until today the world speaks of it as the Garden Spot of the World into whose borders the frozen North may winter, and whose summer skies shine like the glories of the Heavens. With the purest Anglo Saxon blood flowing in her veins, her ideals of chivalry the highest. No wonder we are here today to memoralizc these men who taught us how to do or die. march of civilization. Because of this isolation and segrega tion from the remainder of the country, he said, there has been a 30 per cent drop in the popu lation of the mountain district. It is to avert a further de crease he said, that boys from the Caney Creek community center have toured the United States, speaking to men and wo men, hoping to interest them in the center work. “There are one million poten tial Abe Lincolns hack in the mountain who are willing and anxious to do as much Jjtr their country as that other Abe, who came from our mountains, did.” Franklin said. “Our people arc 200 years behind civilization.” Hale Mess'inger, an 11-year old boy looking austere behind horn-rimincd glasses, who stood on the speaker’s tabic so that he might be seen, lectured gray haired business men on their duties to the flag and their country. LOUISVILLE ACADEMY WINS ANOTHER The Louisville Aeadcm.v “Lemon Squeezers” won another hall game last Thursday afternoon when they played Bartow High School on their own grounds, defeating them, 15 to 5. The largest crowd of the season witnessed the game. Throughout the entire game (’.apt. Sam Clark, the “Lemon Squeezer” twirier, pitched consistent hall- Errors by' his team mates accounted for the runs scor ed by the visitors. Every man on the Academy team played a good brand of hall and there appears to he no reason why the locals cannot win the county championship. Their vic tory over Bartow gives them the honors from the lower part of the county', now they will play the teams from the upper part of Jefferson, to dctcrmincthc county champions Clarence Powers. Tom Wasdcn, Sain Clark, “BislT* Murphy and “Jar” Jones arc all showing good form in the field and at the bat. Their work in Thursday’s game was above the average high school playing and these boys will make a strong hid for the county championship. The Bartow team played well at times, hut never seemed able to show form and class enough t<> down their opponents. The stars for the Bartow team were Forehand and Brow n. Murderer Captured After 18 Years Freedom After escaping arrest for eighteen years, a negro murdered is in Jef ferson County jail awaiting trial. Homer Brinson killed a negro by the name of Dixon, in Matthews, Ga-, away hack in 1905; just after the killing Brinson made his escape to parts unknown and for the past eighteen y’ears has been free, and doubtless, he would be free today hut for the criminal outburst dis played by him several days ago in Miami, Fla., where he was arrested. Reports say that Homer Brinson (who had taken the name of Brin son Hogan) had a fuss with a Flor ida negro and drew bis pistol and ran the negro out rf negro town, Miami, Fla.
