The New Tangled Tie.

Did you ever stop to consider
what big thing this question of
style is-how many thousands of
dollars it annually puts into the
pockets of the merchants and
manufacturer tell you, if it
wasn't for the change of fashion
from season to season we fellows
would have a hard time making
both ends meet.
These new tangled fiamboyant
ties, with every shade from robins
egg blue to the garish hues of a
bandanna handkerchief, suggested
the thought to me. Six months
ago if man appeared ON the streets
with one of these things around
his neck he would have been the
target for the gibes and geers of
every gutter urchin in town. Bnt
now they're considered the proper
caper, and a man who wears the
most funeral of clothes will run
riot in neckwear. These same
ties have caused new and startling
patterns of silk to be designed and
woven and thousands of yards have
been sold. 1t doesn't take much
calculation to figure out the num-
ber of immediate parties who profit
from this freak of fashion, from the
designer of the silk and the manu-
facturer to the retailer of the COM
pleted article.
That these ties are simply pass
ing whim, we realize fully. and
we're getting them off our hands
as fast as we can. Three months
from now they will have gone the
way of celluloid collars and will
have been relegated to the dusky
cavaliers of DarktOwn.

Narrowly Escaped Death.

Sherman, Tex. Aug. 2.-Last
evening Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
O'Hagan had a narrowing expert
ence and a narrow escape from
death in a peculiar runaway acci-
dent which took place just east of
the wire suspension bridge on West
Cherry street They were riding
in light spring wagon when a team
of frightened mules, dragging a
heavy road wagon at a breakneck
speed crushed upon them from the
rear. The team of mules sprang
into the low bed of the light vehicle
and crushed it under their weight,
throwing both Mr.. and Mrs.
O'Hagan into the debris, and the
heavy road wagon went over the
wreck. The few who saw it say
they were chilled at the sight, and
as they hurried to the assistance Of
the unfortunate people they did not
expect to find either of them alive
Almost miraculously Mr. O. Hagan
escaped any material bruises, but
iIrs. Hagan is literally bruised
from head to foot, but no less
strange than the good luck of her
husband is the fact that not the
slightest sign Of bone fracture was
discovered, and she is doing very
we'll indeed today.

Contracts have been let or are
about to be given out for repair
ing every idle furnace IN Alabama
except two with a view of putting
them in operation within the next
ninety days. Twelve plants are
included in the list, the locations
being Florence, Sheffield, Talla-
dega, Ironton, Gadsden, Birming-
ham, Admission. Louisville, Brier-
field. These furnaces have an es-
timated capacity of 1900 tons of
pig iron daily.
Most of them have been dead"
since the financial panic, but have
recently been purchased by Ala
bama iron-producing corporations
or syndicates formed by outside
capitalists. The only two idle
furnaces which will be in Alabar q
after the plants enumerated above
GO into blast will be the Mary
Pratt and the Williamson in Bir-
mingham. The former has gone
into the hands of a newly formed
syndicate and will doubtless be put
into operation before the end of
the year. The latter is in litiga-
ton. This remarkable industrial
revival is due to the enormous de.
mand for iron. Already Alabama
is producing more iron than ever
before in its history by % per cent
and it is being sold six months in
advance.

Guilty over the occupancy of the
house in which they were living.
Jim. it seems, was the aggres-

At this place Dan resented and
struck Jim over the solar plexus
and killed him instantly.
Both parties have families and
are we'll respected farmers, living
two miles south of this place.
Dan then telephoned Deputy
Marshal Wall at Durant what he
had done, and asked the officer to
come at once and get him, adding
that he would like to attend his
brothers funeral. Deputy Wall
told him to go ahead and when his
brother was buried to come down
and surrender.

SKAGUAY IS THE KEY
To the Trade In the Alaskan Gold Re-
eIons--Boundary Is the Topic.

A special from Des Moines, Ia. q,
says: Congressman j. A. l.. Hull
reached Des Moines today, having
returned from a trip to Alaska to
Investigate the boundary question.
To yield to the demands of Great
Britain in the Alaskan boundary
question would be nothing short of
crime" he said.
The boundary is all one hears
in Alaska. 1t is the topic of the
hour and excitement is at a high
pitch. 1t would be disgraceful for
the United States to back down in
the matter and allow Great Britain
to have Skaguay. Skaguay is the
key to all the trade in the gold re-
gions. 1t is impossible for any
other city to control the mining
trade.
If we allow England to have its
way, in this boundary matter, we
virtually turn over the Alaskan
trade to England; if we assert our
rights in the matter and retain
Skaguay we are assured of per-
petual control of the Alaskan trade.
The trade belongs to the United
States. Most of the miners in that
country are Americans and desire
to buy American products.

BRYAN DISCUSSES PHILIPPINES
Is Important Question Becsuse Funda.
mental Principles are Involved.


New York. Aug. 2.-Wm. j.
Bryan, in discussing the Philip
pine question, says:
The Philippine question is i'm
portant because fundamental prin-
ciples are involved in its discus
sion. There are two sources of
government, force and consent.
Monarchies are founded upon force,
republics upon consent.
The declaration of independ-
ence asserts that governments de-
rive their just powers from the
consent of the governed, and this
is the doctrine to which we have
adhered for more than a century.
1t is the doctrine which has dis
tinguished us from European coun-
tries, and has made our nation the
hope of humanity. The statue in
New York harbor typifies the ma
tons mission.
A republic cannot enter upon a
colonial policy. 1t cannot advo-
cate government by consent at
home and government by force
abroad. The declaration of inde-
pendence will lose its value when
we proclaim the doctrine familiar
in Europe, but detestable here,
that governments are round in
shape, about thirteen inches in
diameter and fired out of canon.
For more than a century this
nation has been travelling along
the pathway which leads from the
low domain OF night to the lofty
realm of right, and its history has
been without a parallel in the an
mails of recorded time. What will
be our fate if we turn backward
and begin the descent toward force
and conquest?
The question is frequently
asked, What can we do!' Nearly
two months elapsed between the
signing of the treaty and the be-
ginning of hostilities in the Philip
pines. During that time the pres
ident and congress might have
given to the Filipines the same as
surance of independence that was
given to the Cubans. Such assur-
ances would have prevented blood
shed. If the doctrine of self-gov-
ernment is sound, the Filipinos
are entitled to govern themselves,
and the president can now promise
them independence as soon as a
stable government can be estab-
lished.
If the president is not willing
TO take the responsibility of en-
forcing the doctrine set forth in
the declaration of independence. he
can call congress together and let
it take the responsibility. a spe-
cial session would be less eXpen-
sive than the war. not to speak of
the principles involved"
