NEW OIL INSPECTION.

The new oil inspection law provides for nine Inspectors. It Is made the duty or these inspectors to examine and careful liy test with oleometers every tank. cask or barrel of oil sold in Alabama. The in spector is allowed fee of one-half cent per gallon, when lots exceeding 4.0O0 gal Ions are tested, and one cent per gallon for testing smaller packages. The oil companies, of course, pay the fees. The fees in several of these districts. especial ly in the first. second and ninth districts, will give the inspectors more money per annum than the governor earns-much more-Mobile Register.

A New York republican newspaper pre- diets that when more industries are started in Alabama the protection senti- ment will become very strong. It Is pos sible. When tin-plate mill Is started in Birmingham and it is sure to follow the steel plant the projectors will encourage Mckinley to increase the tariff on tin plate.

THE PRESIDENTS DETAIL WORK

Ex-Presdent Harrison, in writing of the detail work of the president, says that his time is taken up for five or six hours day with office seekers and their friends. This consumes the time of the president, and takes his attention from important matters. This personal appll- cation is useless, for the president is sure to forget the merits or demerits of the applicant before he makes the ap- pcint me'nt. In fact, he may be entirely niisled He is told that one applicant is honest. sober. faithful etc. and that his opponent is dishonest, intemperate and false to the party. The president may transpcse the qualities of these men and apnoirt the wrong man.
 The point made by ex-President liar rison is, we'll taken. Cleveland was so annoyed during his first term that he got mad. ard Curing both his first and

We copy the following from the Beloit
Call, of Feb. 9th, which speaks for it's
self, Of Mr.. VIM. Monroe's company,
which comes to the opera house, Satur.
day, March 18th:
Monte Cristo, Monday night, was the
best play we have yet seen in this city.
The play itself was interesting, and the
company in every character was fault
less. There was not a weak point in the
entire personnel of the troupe. while the
costumes was exceptionally fine and elab
crate. Had the citizens of Beloit known
what was in store for them in the produc-
ton of this popular drama, the opera
house would not have been large enough
to contain the audience. 1t is claimed
by the management that this is the same
company that presented Monte Cristo in
Kansas City, so favorable q mention Of
which was made by the daily papers Of
that city.
