The Necessity of Education.

At the recent closing exercises and
examination of the public school,
near Lax, Limestone county, Ala,
very able and convincing address
on the Necessity OF Education" was
delivered by Mr.. Isaac z Moore,
making a strong and lasting impress
sion for good on all hearers.
How true it is, as expressed by the
speaker, that at this age, more and
more educated and trained minds
are in demand" 'Let Us educate
our children and elevate ourselves,
because we don't know what place
of honor that we may be called to fill
some day."
Encouraging the children, he said:
"There are great possibilities before
you, and industrious, houeat and
studious the future holds in store for
you rich gifts. Some OF you may be
lawyers, some doctors, some mathe-
maticians aad so on through all the
useful professions as well as trades :"
"Children your parents are too poor
and time too precious to idle. So
please consider, and before it IS too
late, study and educate yourselves. p"
We regret that our limited space
precludes a more extended notice of
Mr.. Moore's commendable talk on
the occasion.

The Kolbf tes Play Trick and Capture
the Peoples Party Caucus.

The Kolbites Play Trick and Capture
the Peoples Party Caucus.
BIRMINGHAM, February 8-The Peo-
ple's Party, that is 1.-The middle OF the
road" wing as they style themselves,
called caucus at Sublett Hall tonight OF
the party to decide on what action to
pursue as regards the Kolbite ConveD-
ion.
The straightout Peoples Party, led BY
J. B. Ware of this county and White :
lead of Butler, were opposed to uniting
With Kolb, but favored each party putt
ting its own ticket in the field
The meeting was captured by the
Kolbites and s. M. Adams was made
chairman, replacing Whitehead who had
beeu called to the chair.
Speeches a mile long were made by
the regular Peoples Party men against
uniting with the Kolbites and by the
Kolb men favoring union
Finally, Ware and his following de,
nounced the others, whom they said had
come there as Jeffers onians and not as
Peoples Party men and captured the
meeting after he (Ware) had rented the
hall.
Then he and his followers left the hall
in rage.
A resol ution was passed to the effect
that the Peoples Party meet tomorrow
in convention with the Jeffersonians.
The vote was 26 10 5.
This shows the strength of the meeting.
The meeting was regular monkey and
parrot time throughout. It was clear
that the K bib men had captured it and
the regular Populites, who had called il;
were sat down upon.
A heated colloquy took place between
Adams and Ware. 1t looked one time
like the result would be general knock
down and drag out, but the resolution
was rushed through and the crowd left
the hall quarreling among themselves.

COAL AND IRON ORE

Will be Restored to the Dusia BILE
List,
WASHINGTON, February 9-There Is
little doubt now but that the Senate will
restore the duty on coal and iron, and
also place duty on sugar. Enormous
pressure has been brought to bear ou the
Senate Finance Committee for restora,
tion of the duties imposed under the Nc
Kinley law on the above>named articles,
The Senate Finance Committee has prac-
tica,ly agreed to alter the Mckinley bill
in regard to sugar and place tax on that
article, but the exact rate has not been
fixed, although it has been discussed in a
more or less informal manner One
thing has been agreed upon, how>
ever, and that is that sugar shall be
made dutiable article. The majority of
the committee is favorable for tax that
shall give the refner shade the best of
it, and enable him to compete with the
refined sugar of other countries that
would under any equal tax on refined
and raw sugar operate to the detriment
of the refner in this country. Three
quarters of a cent pound appears to be
the favorite figure of the committee, with
odd quarter for the refner,

biendo desoontarles mas que ell B

Sin duda el selor Intendente de
Puerto Rico, por exoeso de cello que

do su iuter6s en- favor del Tesoro

10 al notar que en- 81 se ha omido
la frase "Clases pasivas". Pero el
espiritu de Ia ley no admite dudas,
" por 10 tanto, yo rogaria al senior
Ministro de UItrsmar que aclarase
el concepto de ese articulO; porQue
al bien no espeoifica que sean las
classes pasivas las que deban dis
frutar el beneficio de que se trata,
express qua deben de ser todas las
que reCiben haberes iel Estado.
Ademas, hay otra raz6n que de e-
cidira seguramente al Ministro de
q tramsr a reconocer Ii justicia de
mi ruego, pues de paso viene &
comprobar la verdad de que al re-
dactarse Ia VICENTE ley de presu-
puestos para Puerto Rioo no se
pens6 en- establecer diferencias en-
el descuento de mas classes y otras
de las q1e peroiben haberes del
