ANOTHER ACT FROM
 THE POLITICAL DRAMA

Scene-The presence chamber at the cap- itol. Enter Chappell in great haste.
 My Lord, White and Bowie are in the marches of Crenshaw, where rebellion has raised It's fearful front. Great Morgan. backed by the sturdy democrats, is in the field, and still his power increases"
 "Out upon thee, thou hamburger of bad news! White and Bowie fomdnting rebel lion in Crenshaw trouble me more near than Morgan and his rash levied strength of scurvy democrats in our shire of Ma rengo. He cannot win the day. He is an irritable feeble old man; the kings name is tower of strength, which they of the adverse faction have not. We cannot lose"
 But, my liege, this Morgan has already dealt us hard blows on recent fields and his name for valorous deeds and stirring action is known in the nethermost parts of the earth. It were well, sire, not to be over-confident."
 ''Thy counsel seems wise, Chappell. We will think on what thou sayst. Bid our Master of Horse, Foot and Dragons, stout Lord Brandon and valiant Sir Edward Booker take the field, and ourself on ex- petitions fiery wing, will raise our royal standard, and whip these stragglers over seas ere the bright days of April shall come again."
 Summon they friends in the north, great liege'
 I've fear they are but cold friends to us in the north, Chappell. when they should serve their sovereign in the south. But away with our silly fears.'' 'March on, join bravely; let's to it pel mell,
 If not to heaven, then, hand in hand to hell'
 My Lord, all is on the rout Lord Bran don is overthrown, beaten. Alas, my liege Marengo has proved our Waterloo. And worse, great liege, the shire of Crenshaw has gone against our cause"
 Said l, Chappell, that Morgan was a weak, feeble old man?'
 Thou dids't, my liege'' 
 "Chappel!" My Iiege." Tt looks like we are sort of up against, Chap
 Tt do, my lege; it do."

Washington,s :, ttx Council

Washington has neither mayor nor board of aldermen. Its affairs are administered by three commissioners appointed by the president, and congress is it's board of all dermen. Congress fixes the tax rate, votes to improve the streets and does all the work of council The government, how ever. pays one half the running expenses of the city, and the citizens are taxed for the other half.
 Congress regulates internal affairs here with an iron hand It fixes cab rates and street car fares. A bill is now pending to make the street car fare three cents and to require the street railway companies to sell ten tickets for 25 cents. Congress oI- ready requires transfers at all junction and crossing points.

Roberts shut Out

Congress by an overwhelming vote has refused to permit Roberts, the Utah polyg- amist, to be sworn in as a member of the house. In doing this dangerous precedent has been established. Utah sent him to congress it's representative. He came with proper credentials and it was against all law and precedent that he should not have been sworn in as a member. He could then have been expelled the ground of his polygamous practices, or for any other reason. Congress by a two-thirds vote has the power to expel any one of its members, but one has the legal power to prevent the swearing in of any representative who comes with the proper credentials from d state.
 Under the same plan of procedure resort ed to in tlids Roberts case a republican con gress could just as well refuse to permit any representative from Alabama on the ground that Alabama hires ler convicts to private corporations to compete with free labor, or for any other trivial reason which might be trumped up.
 The truth of the matter Is, that under pressure from the women of the country congress has violated the constitution and Set a precedent which may some day prove exceedingly disastrous.

Morqan Wins.

The democrats of Alabama have no idea of permitting Senator Morgan to be retired.
 The people are aroused, and are rallying to
 the support of the senator right loyaly and
 with an enthusiasm that will send him back to the senate with a strong majority.
 Two counties were heard from yesterday, tors friends were quite confident of carry ing Marengo, but in Crenshaw they were only hopeful-not confident. Governor Johnston had claimed both Marengo and Crenshaw. The latter was conceded to him only a week ago. It was in that eoun-
 ty that he had put in his most aggressive
 work He and his supporters had made
 thorough canvass of Crenshaw. The gov
 ernor had organized his forces in every
 beat. Senator Morgan up to a few days ago had no organization in that county; and yet when the contest closed there yes terday Johnston was badly defeated. The governor is shrewd and daring politician. Senator Morgan is not a politi- | clan, but is a great statesman, great, | frank, upright man-a senator who towers
 over all the other senators of the democrat I ic party He has influence and power in
 congress. He was the valiant de- | fender of the south in the senate chamber | when the south needed a defender of his | force and leadership. And not only that, | but he has been ever jealous for the great l commercial interests of hls section. He l made the Nicaragua canal possible Yea, | he has about succeeded in having the canal bill passed.
 Such a senator, with a glorious record | behind him and great enterprises ahead of I him, must remain in office. This is what l the democrats of Marengo and Crenshaw | said yesterday when they cast their>votes. | Yes, the people of Alabama appreciate Sem
 ator Morgan's services, and in the counties | yet to act the senator's friends need only | to continue their efforts, and the victory l will be easy.

iE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Senatorial Elections in France.

Today the French people will elect l0l kenators. They evidently believe In the dmaxum, ssThe better the day the better the deed" but they do not vote directly for members of their upper house. The system is even more indirect than the American system, which is fast demon- strating it's inefficieney. But indirect and complicated as 1t is, it may determine the political tendency of the senate. The body consists of 300 members Seventy-five life senators were elected in 1875, but under a Jaw of 1884 all vacancies among life sena- tors are filled by senators elected for a stated term. The term is nine years Un- der this plan about one-third of the senate is elected every three years The manner of an election is very absurd. The elector- al body is made up of delegates chosen by the municipal council of each commune on the basis of population and of the sena- tors. deputies, councellors-ge general and dis trict councillors of the department. Such elections scarcely call for a full expression of public sentiment, but still the fate of the waldeck- -Rosseau ministry may de- pend upon them The chamber of deputies has recently approved the ministry that was strong and brave enough to carry the republic through the Dreyfus case; and if the people at the polls sustain it in the election of liberal senators, 1t will be apt to stand to the end of the exposition at least Just now France is not menaced by a military aspirant, and the people may forget their history and a full vote may not be boiled, thus permitting the oppo- nents of the ministry to secure seats that they otherwise could not.
 In the district of the Loire Inferiure, however, there will not be any lack of enthuiasm or appreciation of the situation. The voters may not in that district vote early and often, but they will all turn out at least once; for General Mercer is running for the senate in that district against a radical. Mercier represents the clerical-miitary combine-a combine that exists throughout France. It is the church and the army against the masses, and the line is very distinctly drawn in the dis trict of the Loire Inferieure. The persecu- tor of Captain Dreyfus is on trial there himself, and the cablegrams of tomorrow will be unusually interesting on that ac- count. If Mereier should be at the top of the poll, he may become second Boulang He is none too good to plot against the republic, and his army support is no more to be trusted than sre hims seIs. a,s.

out circulation can be expected, because the price of government bonds Is too high to render this profitable There are. however more than s2o0 00o.cO0 of bonds now on depos- it against circulation. The new law will permit circulation to the par value of these bonds instead of 90 per cent, as at present. Therefore the currency wil be immediately increased by $2O.eOO GOO, which the republican financiers think will ease up the money market bit in the spring.
 Canvict Made Goods cannot be Transported
 A bill is now pending before congress to prohibit interstate commerce on convict made goods. It is predicted that this bill will be favorably reported to the house from the labor committee and passed by congress before this session adjourns. Such a law would play havoc with some of the great concerns in Alabama now making use of convict labor.
 This being a presidential year, both par ties in congress want the labor vote, and the bill may become a law early in the spring. D. W. B.

THE MOTH FRS HDUR

Largaret E. Sangster in Harper's Bazar. Little figures robed in white, Mellow glow of candle light Little. hands upraised an prayer, Roses sweet and fair. All the work and play and fun For the happy day are done. All the little faults confessed, All the troubles set at rest. Childhood sweet as dawn and flowers Drifts through many ckangeful hours But one hour, the mothers own, Must belong to her alone When she sees each sunny head Safe and cozy in Its bed When the world may do its worst, God and she have had them first. And her bairns are folded fair In the tender Shepherds care. Angels bend above the room, Where the dimpled darHngs bloom In their lovely innocence, Warding every evil hence
  From the little ones who dwell Where the mother guards them well. God and she about them stand; They are safe on every hand Kneel'ag for them at the throne, They are hers and Gods alone. And each child, a tender flower, Blossoms in the mothers hour.

A COSSIPY LETTER
 FROM WASHINGTON

Washington. January 27.-(Speeal.)-I was in New York the other day when Mir Bryan was there. The old time alleged demechaidc leaders were not about him at all. But the rank and file of the people and the element in Tammany which does the voting is for him.
 His fight on trusts is the issue which makes him popular in New York. Tens of thousands of men who formerly got big salaries are now out of employment be- cause of the great eonsolida tions into trusts. There are hundreds of unfortunates ito every one who has or is making money out of the trusts. Every man who has lost his place will vote the democratic ticket, and the Tammany people say the demo- cratic ticket will sweep New York this fall. Richard Croker. the head of Tammany, who is in London, was interviewed yester- day and his words eabled over. He said:
 q don't believe the accounts that Bryan was coldly received in New York, or that Tammany men left the city to avoid meeting him.
 ''All real Tammany men support Bryan, who is the peoples choice and the champion of human rights and the principles of democracy.
 ''He favors the Boers on the same principle that he opposes the subjuga- ton of the F'ilipinos.
 s'This Phllipine war is being carried on now as a political measure. Mckinley $ sole object in continuing it is to assure himself a second term.

can render the best of services to
the people of North Dakota by a
continuation of the Jealous advo-
cacy of forestry. This being true,
I respectfully ask that each editor
of our state may give careful con-
sideration to this circular treating
of forestal developments, and pub
lish all, or parts, of the same as
soon as possible before or after
Arbor Day of the present spring,
giving also such editorial views as
time and space will allow. This
will tend to induce a larger plant
ing of trees for the great and last
ing benefit of the commonwealth
and it's progressive citizens.
Il hereby extend earnest thanks
for the publication by the press Of
my former Arbor Day letters. I
would esteem it a great favor to
obtain marked copies of news
papers treating of forestry matter
as set forth in this circular.
"To county superintendent and
school teachers Of North Dakota:
1.-THE North Dakota forestal idea
or the sylvaton system, whereby
the school children of the state
are or may be taught to love, plant
and cultivate trees and other fora,
is worthy ofsthe most earnest con-
sideration, and is receiving the
fullest approval of leading schol:
ars, educators, ~foresters and
practical statesmen of the states
and nations of the globe. Hence,
I respectfully urge your continue
ton of devotion to the system,
which embraces all the principals
of forestry, as it pertains to the
hons, the school, the church, the
farm, the community, state and
nation. And will you weigh with
due care the suggestions given in
this letter and circulate the docu-
ment freely among the pupils
under your charge, and also their
parents or guardians, and thus,
and in other ways, give your aid
and influence in behalf of tree cul-
ture for the benifcent good of the
state and it's denizens.
II trust that you, the county
superintendent Of schools, will be
careful to distribute, as soon as
received, to the school teachers in
your respective counties the forest
seeds which the North Dakota
State Sylvaton society will send
yon, free Of charge, for distribu-
ton for Arbor Day planting, and
that you, the teachers, will deliver
the same to your respective
scholars, and see that they plant
the seeds on the school grounds
or in the city or village lots, OF
the country where the children
make their homes"
