At Headquarters. ‘When interviewed at his office in the War Department by a representative of The Star Gen. Breckinridge was busy with a pile of correspondence from all parts of the country, assuring him that the coming con- vention will be the most successful yet held. The gathering last year in Chicago, when Jackson Park was thronged with wearers of the red, white and blue rosette, was largely attended, but during the past year an increase of membership, averaging from Xx A. H. Clark. seventy-five toa hundred new names every month, has been made,which will add great- ly to the list of delegates. These delegates will elect new national officers for the coming year and will lay various propositions before the national Congress from their constituents, among which will be the proposed building of a national hall in this city; the preservation, classification and publication of the archives of the revolutionary war, and the decora- tion of the graves of all revolutionary soldiers with a bronze tablet bearing the badge of the society and record of the hon- orable deeds of the hero. Several new state societies will also be admitted and the so- ciety will, for the first time, extend its ju- risdiction into foreign countries, decorating the sons in all nations of men who contri- buted to our independence with the badge and certificate of membership, as well as organizing chapters and societies among them. The National Organization. The officers of the national society, who have administered its affairs during the past year are: President general, Gen.

Origin of the Society. ‘The society is the outgrowth of the pub- Ue celebrations held in every part of the United States (beginning in 1876) of the one hundredth anniversaries of prominent events of the Américan revolution. The first state society was proposed at a meet- ing held in San Francisco in October, 1876, and was actually organized there July 4, 1876. In subsequent years a large number of societies were formed in other states, end the national society was organized by representatives of the various state socie- ties at a meeting heid in New York city April 30, 1889, the one lundredth anniver- sary of Washington's inauguration, and during the great public celebration of that event, when the meeting was held in the identical “long room” in Fraunce’s Tavern, still in existence, in which Washington bade farewell to his officers at the close of the revolution. State societies, with an aggregate mem- bership of 4,275, are organized in the fol- lowing states: Arhansas, California, Con- necticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, W. V. Cox. Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiuna, Maine, Maryland, Massachu- setts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ne- bi New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohto, Oregon and Washington, ~ sylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and Wisconsin, besides ry in pro~ cess of formation in most of the remaining states of the Union. - eee. of the Society. rr. jo registrar general of the National Society, when seen at his office in the Smithsonian, was also busy with the work for the coming meeting. Through his hands the name of every new member must pass for his approval, so he is always “busy” in the interests of the society. Mr. Clark explained that the organiza- tion of the society is purely patriotic and social, but in no respect partisan, political or commercial. “The members,” he said, “are united by a bond of patriotic and fra- ternal sentiment, their objects being to per- petvate the memory of the men who, by their services or sacrifices during the war of the revolution, achieved the independ- erce of the American people; to unite and Promote fellowship among their descend- ants; to inspire them and the comraunity at large with a more profound reverence for the principles of the government found- ed by our forefathers; to encourage histori- cal research in relation to the revolution; to acquire and preserve the records of the individual services of the patriots of the war, as well as documents, relics and land- marks; to mark the scenes of the revolution | ill: by appropriate memorials; to celebrate the anniversaries of the prominent events of | Whose the war; to foster true patriotism; to main- tain and extend the institutions of Ameri- can freedom, and to carry out the pur poses expressed in the preamble of the Constitution of our country and the in- junctions of Washington in his farewell address to the American people.” Mr. Clark also said: “In its organization the scciety follows closely the model upon which the republic is formed. Each state and territory has a scciety, with a con- stitution and by-laws, a corps of executive officers and a board of managers, In states having several sarge cities the state so- clety ray be subdivided, at the option’ and converience of the members, into local chapters. The state societies united con- stitute the National Society, which, in turn, has a constitution and by-laws, with a board of officers and a legislative body, called the congress, the latter composed of delegates from each of the state societies, which meets once a vear. “The spirit which dominates the Sons of the American Revolution is broad, patri- otic and American; no person is excluded from membership when eligible if a worthy and patriotic man and of good standing in the ccmmunity. The society has awakened @ general public interest in Amezican his- tory, it has secured from Congress a law providing for the collection and indexing of the records of service in the American rev- olution now in the executive departments in this city and it has obtained the use of a fireproof room in the Smithsonian Institution for the deposit of records and documents of the revolution. From the Maryland legislature it has obtained an ap- propriation for a monument in Baltimore to Maryland’s men in the revolution, and from the New Hampshire legislature it has se- cured the constructio’. and public dedication of a statue of Gen. Stark. s ‘The society also originated and establish- ed the annual popular observance of June i4as “Flag day.” It took conspicuous part in the dedication of the monument to the Bennington heroes, and in the centennial celebration of the laying of the corner stone of the Capitol, while it has stimulated interest in the revolutionary war by more than a hundred celebrations of anniver- saries of its important events; has mt- ed headquarters of “Brother Jot tha! in Connecticut, has initiated the plan of marking the grave of every patriot of the war and has advocated the passage of a law by Congress forbidding the dese- cration of the national flag for advertising purposes, and has promoted the general display of the flag in the public schools.” Requirements for Membersht: In the blank of application for member- ship of the society the lineal descent from the ancestor, besides a record of his connec- tion with the war of the revolution, must be stated, and sworn to by an official in the 'state where application for registration is required.
