OUR MOTHER.

Telephone for joe" were among the
last words uttered by that dear old
mother who had nurtured Us through
infancy, watched over us through youth
and followed rs through manhood with
q mothers loving soiicitude. At her
home IN Spokane, surrounded by other
members OF her family and with the
shadow OF death passing DER her feeble
brow, her thoughts turned to the absent
ones. Those only who have been called
upon to part with her by death can feel
10 its fullest extent the loss OF Gods
noblest work-a true. loving, Christian
mother. She lie gone from among us,
and life devoted unselfshly and un-
complainingly to her fsmily, to Chris
tian work, 70 charity, to benevolence,
and to untiring efforts for the relief OF
suffering humanity, regardless OF creed
or surroundings; a life OF active work
for the betterment of the condition OF The
human family, has gone 10 that bright
world beyond, and her memory will re-
main sparkling jewel in the hearts OF
those TO whom she ministered and those
whom che loved as relatives and friends.
Many a silent tear will lie shed as mem
DRY goes back to that spotless lite and to
those noble deeds OF devotion to human
ity. Her life was busy one. yet its IS
years touched her lightly and she seemed
destined to many years Of usefulness
previous to the time OF her death.
Margaret Miller Tingle was horn in
Cambridge, Guernsey county, Ohio. Sep
tember 18th, 1874. She was united in
marriage TO Wilson Scott, in the town
OF her nativity, August 10Th, 1855. Her
father came from old Virginia stock OF
Revolutionary days and her mother was
n native OF Maryland. During her mar
ried life she became the mother OF seven
children, Joseph T.. Alma NJ, Kate T.,
Leila NJ, Della A., EuYenia W. and
Fannie NJ. What is an unusual record
is the fact that the family was raised to
manhood and womanhood without a
death, the first break coming in Sept
ember, 1895, when Engenia W.-Mrs +.
G. BlRnchard-was called away. The
members Of the family. except our father,
who was east at the time, were present
at her funeral. The remaining members
we're permitted TO be present at the fu-
neral OF our mother. which took place
from the family residence, 1919 Mallon
avenue, Spokane, WASH, Thursday, Dee.
Z, 1899, at one O'Clock p. IN. The family
located in Spokane in September. 1892,
since which time our father has run out
OF that city as a railway postal clerk, a
calling he has followed for the past TWEEN
ty years. In addition to her immediate
family, deceased leaves four brothers and
one sister to mourn their loss-Geo. r.
Jingle, Of Washington, d. c.; W. E. Tin
gle, OF GAINESVILLE, Ohio; R. T. Tingle, of
Princeton, Ind; J. p. Tingle, If Diekin-
son, n. D.; and Mrs. J. II. Aah, Of Wich-
ita, Kan. Rev. F. V. Stevens, Of the
Westminster Congregational church,
conducted the funeral iervice. Inter
ment took place in the Fairmount Gene
terry where the remains were laid be-
side those of her daughter.

The Commissioners Defense.

Commissioners Morrow and Lacey's de-
Tense is nominally made to the legislature,
but really to the people of Jefferson county.
In two respects they are mistaken Their
apologies as to the length of their defense
are wholly unnecessary. The taxpayers of
this county want the whole truth, no mat
ter how much wood pulp be consumed in
the operation. The defense does not furnish
the particulars that the people desire They
want detailed defense as to every one of
the thirteen charges mentioned by Gov
ernor Johnston. The reply of the commits
sioners does not furnish the details of their
defense. They generalize too much, and
specialize too little.
The commissioners, too, should not have
attacked the jurisdiction of the examina-
ton to which they were subjected They
should have welcomed Examiner Cowan
with open hands to hospitabe books and
accounts. They should have bid Governor
Johnston to send more men of the same
sort. They should insist upon examinations
galore-examinations sprung upon them
suddenly and in all seasons But instead CT
that they plead various old statutes. The
peoples business should always be open to
inspection and examination. 1t should be
an open book to all corners. In this re-
spect the commissioners have made a Sc
rious mistake.
If tho commissioners will accept the Age
Herald's advice, they will turn adrift their
lawyers and go before the legislature on
the bare merits or dement's of the thirteen
counts in Governor Johnston's Indictment
Let them prove how much road inspection
they actually did, showing what roads they
inspected on any particular day. 1t is par
ticulars that are wanted. Let the practice
of allowing unsworn itemized accounts be
Investigated 10 the very bottom. Let the
"abundant proof" that they mention be fur
nished And so ON through the list of
charges. The commissioners are In posi-
ton to make an exhaustive ex parte show
ing, and that is what they should make.
That Is what the people of Jefferson county
are waiting for. That is what is not fur
nished In the paper that Messrs. Morrow
and Lacey have submitted to the leglsla-
ture.

Milltarism Is Imperialism.

The passage of the Hull bill in the house
-by the republican majority commits them
to the policy, not only of large standing
army, but also to its use in the case of la
Dor riots and the like without waiting for
a call on the part of the state executive.
Representative Cummings, a democrat, of
New York, offered an amendment intended
to cut off the use of troops regardless of
the wishes of state, but the republicans,
true to their campaign fund and Mr. Mark
Hanna, promptly voted it down. The OBJ
jects of the proposed new army need not
in the light of that vote be misunderstood.
whatever of any increase in the standing
army. Until the Cuban and Philippine
will be needed, but the need for force
that can be used one year or even two
years, does not call for permanent army
that would cost the country 500, 100000
year The Hull bill is the very essence of
repubicanism-rule by force in defense of
class interests. That is what the army is
needed for. All know that a temporary
force can be used in Cuba and the Philip
pines, but the republicans are determined
to utilize the situation in order TO obtain
what their campaign subscribers have long
demanded.
Senatorial oratory has at last come to
e place where it can be expended to the
good of the country. The Hull bill must
be killed. Under no circumstances should
the creation of Mr. Mark Hanna in the
White House be given the authority to
swell the army to one hundred thousand
men, or to any number. Let the law stand
rs it is, extending, perhaps, for one year
the present provisions as to the regular
army. This would give a force of about
C0,000 men, which would be ample for all
legitimate and republican purposes 1t may
not be ample to serve all the demands of
Tie Injunction judges. 1t certainly will not
meet the approval of the heavier subscrib-

BIRMINGHAM ON A BOOM,

From the Little Rock Democrat
representative of the Democrat, in call
ing at the office of Mr.. Sessions, was in
troduced to Mr. e. N. Cullom, president of
the Alabama Trust and Savings company.
of Birmingham.
Mr.. CulIom, in passing through the city,
stopped over to Mr.. Sessions in refer
ence to the recent purchase made by Hor-
ace w. Sessions 81 Co. of large tract of
land in Birmingham. Mr.. Cullom seems to
think that they have made wise invest
ment, and he spoke like a man who knew.
In talking of Birmingham, he said, in
substance, that in no time in the history of
the city was 1t in as good condition finan-
cially and industrially as now. He said
the economic condition existing in the Biz
mingham district for making pig iron was
unknown elsewhere. The juxtaposition
ore, coal and lime all three of these ingre-
dents for making pig iron, can be deliv-
cred at the furnace door at a cost of not
exceeding 90 cents per ton freight, and
there is no other iron producing center that
can assemble this material at less than 50
per ton. For several years the district has
made large shipments of pig iron to Pitts
burg and Cleveland, where it was converted
into steel, and during the past year quite
an export trade has been established ap-
proXimating 1900 tons of pig iron, and their
trade has come to stay. Today the entire
world recognizes the superiority of the Biz
mingham district as a pig iron producer.
They are, however, beginning to do much
more than making pig iron, as that district
has sold pipe in Japan and Italy in open
competition with the world.
One of the largest pipe works in Ohio has
bought land in the district and will move
there in the spring. There can be num-
bered among its new industries a steel mill

IIIIteracy Doomed In Alabama.

The house of representatives has. by
vote of 81 to I, raised the general appropria-
township sehools-from ss5OO0O to 100000.
Assuming that this sum will become law
the school appropriation for the coming two
years will be as follows:
Poll tax appropriations. ............. 10000
Sixteenth section fund.-. ............. $4,000
$685., 900
This leaves the sum annually available for
schools s1o5.0OO shy of million dollars, and
it is believed that a million dollars is needed
in order to keep open the common schools
in every township six months in the year.
Let no one, in view of the noble action of
the house of representatives, think that the
million of dollars will not be secured, for it
certainly will be. The proposed change in
the manner of collecting poll taxes may
alone give the sum needed, or the adoption
of the bill requiring the counties to increase
their school taxes would meet the case. II
all these plans should fail, then the people
in each township must supplement the pub
lie funds with private subscriptions In the
last named event let the private subscrip-
tons be in fact private subscriptions. In
no case must a child in Alabama be kept
out of school by school fees. That indefen-
sble practice is forever ended in this state
by the magnificent vote in the house yester-
day. All credit and praise to the legisla-
ture of Alabama-the greatest and noblest
state.
The Age-IIerald sincerely hopes means
will be found for raising the states COM
plete appropriation to a round Million be-
cause a six months term is all important;
and it also hopes that the Abercrombe bills,
one and all, viii become laws, because they
are needed in order to make the states
splendid appropriation do the largest posi-
bic amount of good. When the state appro-
PIRATES round million to public education
it becomes doubly necessary to have com
petent teachers and competent county SUI
perintendents and an efficient y system
throughout. The state fortunately has in
Mr.. Abercrombie an educational leader who
is equal to all the demands that new egisla-
ton will make upon him. Alabama is cer-
tainly on the upgrade today and illiteracy
in the state is, or soon will be, on the down.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.
One Fiuht Should Settle It.
Editor


THE only objection to the dispensary as
1t stands says the Union Springs Herald,
rs that several counties are excepted from
its provisions. Every county in the state
should be included in it," Today the coun-
ty press will begin to freely come in the
Herald will be found to be the voice of tho
larger portion of the state.
Public sentiment demands a general bill
a settlement one way or the other of the
burning and absorbing liquor question. A
settlement in spots is an unsettlement of
all. When reduced to its last analysis, it
will be found to be an attempt of localities
to secure trade at the expense Of their more
conscientious neighbors. Settlements in
spots in homogeneous state is legislation of
personal sort, unless it be based on a
popular vote. To let a senator plan matter
to suit his personal notions, is not repub-
lieanism. 1t is violation of the represent
tative principle. When two counties lying
side by side, of similar makeup, are sena-
torially handed over, the one to a dispen-
sary system and the other to the license
plan, then all may know some ones per-
sonal whims have come into the case. And
it is not creditable or honest legislation to
arrange compulsory bill on a subject that
involves ethical questions, for the purpose
of securing the votes of senators.
Altogether the bill needs to be changed
to make 1t just and feasible. 1t should
above all else be submitted to the people.
A liquor system that does not command the
dead letter law of the worst and most mis-
chievous sort from the very start 1t cam
not be enforced Whether the bill should be
drawn on lines that call for votes by the
people of the state as a whole, or by the
people in the political units, the counties, is
question that is open to discussion and
disagreement. The legislature is the com-
petent authority in such a case.
All that the Age-Heral asks is that the
will of the people be first ascertained-that
the bill should first secure popular support
before it is enforced as a state or county
measure An enforceable law is needed,
dead-le letter law is not needed The statute
books are clogged with the latter now, and
the friends of liquor regulation ought to be
the first to second the Age-Herald in it's
efforts to stay the checker-board movement,
and substitute in its place a law that is
general in extent and that has behind it
public sentiment strong enough to enforce
it and sustain it throuh all ordeals that it
may encounter. Give the sober second
thought a chance Let the current hot
wave be stayed until the July election, when
1t would be free to disport itself to the full
limit of its possibilities.

oARNEGIa's BIRD TX ALABAMA.

From the Selma Times
Yesterday morning Mr.. E. M. Riley killed
a vampire in his room on Lamar street. 1t
measured thirteen and one-eighth inches
from tip to tip of wings and five inches
from nose to end of tail. It's body was
covered with purplish gray fur like satin.
Its wings were brownish black and to the
touch were like soft silk. Its head resem-
bled a bulldogs. When held to the floor
by Mr.. Riley with a stick it emitted a
kissing noise like a goose. 1t is several
times .the size of a leathering bat.
Mr. Riley had the animal in the Times
office yesterday and proposed to ship it to
the Alabama Tech at Auburn.
The stranger evidently came over in some
vessel from Central America, Porto Rico
or Cuba.

Fall River have noted with apprehensions
The stockholders of mills like those at
we'll grounded on the dimfnution and dis
appearance Of profits, the recent steady IN
crease in the number and size of factories
built In the cotton growing part of the
country, and naturally they are studying
the relative advantages and disadvantages
of the two regions with the greatest care.
Hitherto they have tried to hope that,
though the south is favored by proximity
to raw material, an abundant supply of
comparatively cheap and docie labor and
less stringent laws regulating the hours
and age of employment. New England's in
dustrial supremacy can still be maintained
greater aptitude for this sort of work. and,
therefore, can more than earn their higher
wages. This whole theory of the situation
according to Fail River mill agent, who
has been conducting a quiet investigation
of southern conditions. is in need of thor
ough revision. The Boston Transcript
quotes him as saying that the northern
mills had nothing to fear except the cheap
labor and long hours of their competitors,
there would be no great cause of anxiety.
According to this authority, the southern
mil Hands are naturally as intelligent as
those of New England; will demand and
get higher wages and shorter hours in the
near future, and unionism is sure to deve.-
op among them. The one apparent and dan
gerous superiority which he credits to the
southern mills Is, curiously enough, their
isolation Plants separated from each
other, as were for many years the factories
of Rhode Island, Connecticut and Maine,
possess many advantages which nail that
is one of many in large town will never
have-the operatives having few opportuni-
ties for employment, are necessarily more
tractable. and the preservation of business
secrets is vastly easier.

POPULAR ELECTIONs OFF SENATOR'S.

From the Baltimore Herald.
1t Is manifest that the question of electing
United States senators by the direct vote of
the people, instead of by the respective
state legislatures, has become burning is
sue which is not to be easily extinguished.
The present legislative deadlock over the
senatorial election in West Virginia, the
peculiar contest in Delaware, and the scan
dalous nature of the Quay and anti-Quay
campaign at Harrisburg, illustrates in
striking way the evils which are likely to
grow cut of the present system of choosing
United States senator's, and give emphasis
to the arguments in behalf of elections di-
rectly by thc people.
