General the programme, re. i w's speech was for the most part nciliatory in tone and was well re- ceived, t his reference to the manner in which ail memories of the great strug- gle should be blotted out in the famllies of the South was not recelved with favor. In his speech he uttered these words, and went deeply into General Gordon's he keeping alive of sectional teach- “T! ings as to the justice and rights of the cause of the South in the hearts of the children is all out of order, unwise, un- Sist and utterly opposed to the bond by which the great chieftain, Lee, solemnly bound the cause of the South in his final surrender.” ; At the close of General Shaw's speech General Gordon came forward. He had the Grand | Spoken briefly before and his appearance | again caused considerable surprise. The enthusiasm quieted Instantly. General Gordon sald he could not teach his chil- dren that he fought for what was wrong. He entered battle for what he believed was right, and, said he, “Only the judg- ment day and God himself will ever de- cide who was right.” General Shaw responded gracefully to the general's exception. He stated that he had prepared his speech with care and much of the material therein was gather- ed from speeches made by General Gor: don_in the North. i “Our children should be taught,” eaid 2l Shaw, “the true glory and sub- ¥ of our one country; their fathers teach them this. Let them be so the children of the North and of alike. the South, that no difference will be per- ceptible. Fhie incident closed_with three cheers for the Blue and the Gray.

Large tankage faciiities and pipelines will be established in all districts, and also where consumers can come and purchase direct from the association. When an indi- vidual wants to sell he will turn his oil into a tank and get a certificate for it. which will be as good as coin. The mar- tankage at markets, | ' ket will be kept supplied as consumption | demands, and no more. In this way oil men feel sure the market can be kept up all right.
