ST. PAUL, Dec. 20.-A Pioneer Press

The employment of letter carrier
spoilers promises to be thoroughly in
vestigated by this congress, not only
because there is a good deal of criticism
of the principle of the thing, but be-
cause the practice is said to be unau-
thorized and contrary to Law. A good
deal of feeling has grown out Of the
suspension of old and faithful carriers
in almost every city where the surveil-
ance of the spoilers has been inaugu.
rated, for various periods, and for
offenses so trivial that they should not
have been dlgnifed by official attention.
There are said to be SO Of the spoilers,

AN EDUCATIONAL EXHlBlTs

An Alabama exhibit at Atlanta is no longer matter of doubt. The energy and enthusiasm of Birmingham's liberal leadership have removed the question from the sphere of conjecture, and an exhibit of the States resources at the Cotton States exposition is assured. The important question now to be considered is with regard to the completeness and adequacy of the representation of these resources that the committee may be enabled to make with the funds placed at it's dsposal.
 The Age-Herald desires to emphasize the importance to the State of an ex- hibit which shall include not simply presentation of her mineral and agri- cultural resources, but also of her educa- tional facilities. Those who have care fully noted the work of similar eXposi- tions within recent years well know that an Alabama exhibit at Atlanta without an educational department would be so conspicuously incomplete as to provoke and even invite adverse comment. ne
 Superintendent Phillips of the Birming- ham schools sounded the keynote to this line of work, when, at the banquet of the State Commercial association, he urged the importance of State educational de- partment as the necessary counterpart or any eXnlDlt We may make Of our ma terial resources. The social, educational and economic conditions of the State are of no less importance than her material resources and industrial facilities as in- ducements to attract and retain a desir- able population. It Is well known that the stock argument of the North and Northwest against immigration to Ala bama has been the meagerness of the States provision for public education and the consequent inefficiency and in- adequacy of her educational facilities The last few years have witnessed won derful development in the educational work of our cities and towns, as we'll as in many of our rural communities This progress should be shown at Atlanta, and if the schools of Birmingham Montgoh- cry, Mobile, Selma and other towns, to- gether with our colleges and normal schools, are encouraged to prepare sach an exhibit Alabama will not suffer by comparison with other States, North Or South. Birmingham taking the lead fin this, as well as in other lines has al- ready decided to prepare an educational exhibit. If the other cities and towns of the State will join hands in this matter by preparing their exhibits and contrib uting literally towards the necessary expense of proper display of the work Alabama will be able to boast of an ex- hibit which, in completeness and attrac tiveness. shall be excelled by no other State in the union.
