ALABAmA's REPUBLICANS.
Leaders of the Party Opposed to Sup
porting Kolb.

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. S.-A special
to the Advertiser from Birmingham, Ala
says: 1.-The republican conference called
by Edmond Morton Smith, of Cullman,
Ala, met at Eastwell hall at noon to-day.
Twenty-Five republican leaders were
present, Mr.. Mosley being conspic-
uous by his absence. Mr.. Smith,
in calling the convention to order
said its object was to consult as TO the
best course to be pursued by the republi-
cans in the coming state and congressional
campaigns. He was opposed to support
ing Kolb, and favored independent politi-
cal action.
Speeches along the same line were
made by Ben De Lemos, John T. Blake
RESOLUTIONS indorsing Mckinley and
Reed were passed.
RESULT OF THE CONFERENCE.
1.-THE result of the conference is
summed up the following resolution in
troduced by Mr.. Green, of Tuscaloosa,
which was passed.
In order to unite the Republican party, be
it resolv {, that the chairman of this conven-
tion appoint a committee of ten of the Stew
ems wing and ten of the Moseley wing, who
are to invite both chairmen TO issue
a call for their committees to assem- Dlo
on the same day and place. Both commit
tees should authorize the committee of
twenty TO order county, district and state
conventions to select delegates to
state convention to be called by
the committee of twenty. The committee OF
twenty should constitute the credentials com
mittee of the republican state convention,
and the delegates seated by that credentials
committee should constitute the delegates TO
the state convention.
This committee is to consist of ten
whites and ten negroes selected by Ed
mond Morton Smith.
The sense of the conference was first,
to endeavor to invite the two wings of
the Republican party, and then to have
state convention and put out a straight
republican ticket.
"If Moseley and Stevens refuse to CO.
operate in carrying out the provisions of
the above resolutions, Smith will issue a
call for a republican state convention, to
be held in Birmingham in the spring, They
declare that the republicans will not sup
port Kolb."

Apologized to the Servant.

Senator NJ. c. Butler of South Carolina,
is often referred to as the "most courtly
man in the Senate" With a very little
change of dress he could pass as a Beau
Brummel. However, ne is very quick
tempered withal, says the New York
Press, as was illustrated by an incident
yesterday at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
The senator had just been shaved in the
barber shop and turned to get his hat.
1t was early, and the senator was the
only customer in the place. The boy
handed him hat. II did not At, and Mr.
Butler handed it back saying sharply,
"Give lne my hat"
Beg pardon, said the boy, "that is
your hat"
''Give me my hat" Butler repeated an
grily.
THAT is your hat" answered the boy,
looking about. ut Is the one you wore
when you came in"
The South Carolina senator was fairly
aroused. He raised his stick and said /:
If you tell me that again | will knock
you down. Give me my hat, tell you. -
The barber interposed at this point and
sent the boy upstairs to the breakfast
room. Presently he returned with the
right hat.
Il beg your pardon" he said to the
boy, with his old courtly air; "here is a
dollar for your trouble" OF course the
apology was accepted.

COTTOLENE.
Revolution
In Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery Of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is we'll known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstainentire-
ly from everything Of that kind.
To such people, CoTToLENE is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t combines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, delicate favor,
and an appetlzlng crispness.
No trace Of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CorroLENE is worthy Of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

THE DOG MADE a HIT.
How Pop the Actor" Received His
Nickname.


From the Louisville Courier-Journal
"Pop the Actor" lives in Baltimore.
Two years ago an opera company was
playing at Albaugh's theaterin Baltimore.
There was a very handsome tenor who
sang leading parts, and he owned big,
shaggy Irish setter that always came 10
the theater with him every night and
matinee. Wherever you saw that tenor
on the street or at the hotel you would
always see that long, lank shadow behind
him
The whole opera company loved that
dog. They used 70 try TO get him into
their dressing rooms. but the dog never
would leave the dressing room Of his
master. When the tenor was on the
stage the dog would be down on one Of
the trunks, with one eye open and one eye
shut and his ears cooked up In those
days his name was Jack.
When his master came down the steps
that led from the stage Jack would meet
him and see him safely out, and then COZ
descend 70 play with the property men.

TIRED OF YACHTING.
THE POPE ILL.
Pacific Railroad Indebtedness.

OMAN, Aug. 20-Gen. Wade Hamps
ton, United States commissioner OF
railroads, is in this city inspecting the
Union Pacific. In regard to the Pacific
railroad indebtedness he said: 1t
is a great mistake the people of
the country are making in regard to
the payment by this railroad of its
obligations to the government. All
the railroads having received aid from
the government are rigidly living up
to the terms of the Thurman act as
applying to the paying of 20 per cent
of their net earnings into the govern
ment treasury as interest on the
bonds. But this is by no means suffi-
cient to assist the government in
paying interest on its own bonds and
in this is the chief difficulty. The roads
have been honest in the matter, but
25 per cent is hardly drop in the
bucket which is required from the
government, and would be in favor
of increasing the amount to 90 per
cent OF the net earnings to be paid by
government aided roads in order to
assist the government in meeting itsl
fixed charges"

More Than Three Thousand Ballots
Taken and no Nomination.
Special to The Statesman.
MINEoLA, Tex, Aug 21.-The Third
district congressional convention re-
convened today at 2 p. m. A large
number of delegates are present from
each county. Ba!loting began at the
2569th ballot and continued until the
3O3Gth. A motion was made to invite
all the baldheaded delegates to ad-
dress the convention. B. B. Beard of
Smith county, John s Jones of Hen
derson county and j. 5. Sheriff. OF
Hunt responded, each in turn declar-
ing his allegiance to he platform
adopted by this cOnventiou-16 to L
and was loudly applauded. K1lgore.s
friends say they have brought their
overcoats and are here to stay. Nc
Cord still leads 10 the race and his
friends remain firm and will fight to
the finish Yoakum's friends show no
signs of weakening,
The last ballot stood: McCord, "a B.
Yoakum, 10; Kilgore, 1923. No one
has offered any motion or sugges ton
favoriDg the adoption of the majority
rule. The Uwo-thirds rule was adopted
at the former session and will stand
until the nomination is made. The
delegates are tired out, but show no dis
position to change their votes, and it
is now more than probable that moth
ing will be done before the last of the
week. 1t was rumored today that
Kilgore would arrive this afternoon,
but he did not come aud will not be
here during the convention. Dark
horses ale not 10 it. 1t seems TO be
the determination of the delegates to
select cong, essman from the candi-
dates who made the race before the
people. Many of the delegates are re-
turning to their homes, but they are
being replaced by new recruits by
every train. The convention ad
iourned tonight until tomorrow morn
ing at s o'clock.
