Register, nuimi 11. muwJUJiiluea mis 1 n4sioa. I love to think of the Junior Order as a great band of patriots, tending it assistance and coun- ; the elevation of manhood and our ' American type of citlienshlp. We ask no reward for our labor save the reward of our conscience The JnnlA AfM 4a rt.it a nnlfHAal i,vant KAtionr 1t is nrtt lahop union a an - many seem to think, having for its (purpose the solution or the perpiexi .ties of statecraft We believe all our II, MA.At, lli.la ...ll.nl f u utviiw ... icvu l nun HMumi ov UUOn In an improved citlienshlp. tWe are not only bound together by a solemn obligation, but by a desire to be of service to our country. AS TO IMMIGRATION. "Tho Junior Order believe In a re stricted immigration, or to express It more clearly, it believes In admitting the desirable class of immigrants and objecting to the pauper and criminal !. It has no objection to the man mho want to come to this country to Conduct an honest business, -but the majority of our new citizens are com ' tag to get license to da meanness. I want to remind you tnat more man 0.100,006 foreigners came to our shores Jast year, or at the rate of 4.000 a day- That Is Vnough people to populate a city the size of Char lotte every week In the year. One- seventh of our entire population Is foreign, and If children of foreign birth are included the percentage i tone-third. Seventy-five per cent, of the population of New York I fof- ign-born; 60 per cent of Phlladel t)hla and mora than half the. no mil a tlon of Boston is foreign-born. The motive which are behind this Influx tnto America are much different from 1 those which actuated our forefathers IB coming here. They came to build tap and to get the air of freedom, the foreigners are coming to tear down. ON EDUCATION. The Junior Order believes In pub Ue schools and education. It is an t vi9 uium mm ir&inea ciiixeusniD IS better than an untrained citizen ' hip.' Now, good men differ on this question,' but as upon all great public question, they differ only upon the etaiis. nome ininic me tate should "ot take the taxes of white people and ; educate the foreigners and negroes, but none differ on the great proposi tion as it stands alone. I am talking - of communities and not of Indlvldu als. Of course, I am Interested and ngaged In educational work, hut I do not presume to declare that every ' body ought to go to college. There are some boys who are made mean : men by college work. ' This is not the ' fault of education, but the fault of the boy. THE AMERICAN TYPE. "The Junior Order believes In edu cation for training I am not able to i cay what Is the test type of citizen - ship when confronted with all aorta ef condition. I suppose the English gteople are doing more to improve their own conditions than any other oopte, but for the condition con fronting America, the American type ef manhood yields to none other In eoperlorlty. We, are more capable to work out our own problems. What 5s 'this American type? It Is that ' typo developed under condition a nearly resembling absolute freedom a It is possible to attain. The American man resents domination; it love liberty. There Is no royal aris tocracy In this country. There axe no octal or money casta to any large ex tent There is no ecclesiastical arls- nKairv - hnt rathar ia fhcra ha aria. toeracy of moral character which la above all other -considerations."

One among the things which the board of aldernv-n will discuss at its regular monthly meeting to-morrow night Is the Question of allowing the raraae of the Southern Automobile Company remain under the Audito rium and the further question of re moving all of them beyond the fire limits. Ordinances have been drawn tentatively and these will be discussed. There will be arguments on both jildes and It promises to be of some Interest. On False Pretense Charge. James Kennedy, a white man, was arrested yesterday by local police of- ncers on- a warrant issued at xofje vllle, 8. C, charging him with obtain ing about $40 under false representa tion The trouble appears to have grown out of collections alleged to have been made by Kennedy on a mortgage, of which no account has been returned.

The meeting promises to be of special In terest to all the boys of the city and an Invitation Is extended to all boys, whether members of the association or not That Carton Report That Tillman Ha Pellagra. "There is absolutely no foundation In fact for the report given currency by a Wilmington paper that Senator Tillman has pellagra," said a Char lotte physician recently returned from Columbia, S. C, when Interrogated by an Observer, man yesterday. "There has never been even the slightest Sus picion of such thing. Senator Till man went abroad for hi health and Dr. J. W. Babcock want abroad also to study this disease, . They traveled together ia the Old World and hence. I suppose,, that Idea.
