Of state the corporate papers for the
North Alabama railroad. The company
proposes to build seventy-four miles Of
road from Cullman, on the main line
of the l.. & N. company through Jeffer-
son. Walker and Cullman counties to
Bessemer, Ala. The Louisville and
Nashville owns q line of road from Bes-
semer to Blockton and also owns a line
which It has recently completed from
Selma to Pensacola. Fla. It is believed
that the builders Of the North Alabama
can only mean that the company will
also construct the forty miles gap be

would give the Louisville sand Nashville

the watch until he iuallY found that

AN INTELLIGENTACr.

The most intelligent thing republi-
can convention ever did in Alabama
was the adoption of the resolution by
the state conventin of 1896 forbiddlng
third term Craftsmanship of the State
Executive Committee, Their expert
ence with R. A. Mosley taught them
something: Their action was timely as
shown by Mr. Vaughan's frantic effort
to foist himself upon the party even in
defiance of the law. In our judgment
this he can never accomplish, for senti-
ment seems to favor the resolution. and
1t will never be repealed for his accom-
mediation, personal advancement and
party ruin. We had better opinion
of Mr. Vaughan's intelligence THAI to
think he and his gang would attempt to
lead the party into mutiny against its
laws IG is said that when q Gagged and
gentled lion once taste human blood, all
the viciousness of his beastly nature be-
comes aroused, and he Fl antically seeks
more blood. Perhaps it would be char
liable to say that the same rule prevails
with republican leaders. let them once
taste pie, and the ferocious in their
native predominates Immediately they
become as roaring lion se eking whom
they may devour disr. garding party
Jaw and ethics, We still hope how
yer. that Mr. Vaughan for whom we
entertain kind personal regard will
become tame, see the error of his way,
and desist from his pathway of self
destruction. Tribune.

Detroit, Mich, Jan. 23.-Charles J.

chased all of the independent telephone
exchanges and toll lines in the state of
Michigan, consisting of fcrty six ex-
changes and 6, 600 miles of toll lines,
Inependent telephone companies were
first started in Michigan under the in
spiration of Pingree. Tie rates charged
were too low to sustain the
business. 1t is understood the price paid
was about % per cent. of the original
cost of constructing the exchanges and
toll lines. The telephone subscribers are
delighted with the prospect of receiv-

two telephones on their walls and pay

JULIAN BINGHAM FOR CHA IRMA

JULIAN BINGHAM FOR CHA TRMAN
There can no longer exist any ques-
tion in the mind of the thinging class
Of Alabama republicans that Mr.. Julian
H. Bingham is the proper person to
nominate as Il Q future chairman of the
Republican State Executive Committe.
After an intelligent construction of the
resolution which renders one ineligible
after two terms MIR Vaughan becomes
legal lmpossibility, and it would be I'M
pardonable for him to disregard the party
law aud to request others to join him in
the mutiny. A leading republican in
our state, one who was present at the
time the Convention adopted the reso-
luton. was in position to know, ad-
vises US that it was adopted unanimous
ly. That MIR. Moseley had served for
years and had about destroyed the par
ty, fnd that after nominating MIR.
Vaughan by a close vote that it then
Odtpted the resolution forbIdding the
third term The purpose WIS clear. it
was to protect the party, convention
followed in 1858 and no effort to repeal
was made We believe that it would
be simply suicidal for Mr.. Vaughan to
attempt Its repeal. 1t would be dis
regard of party dignity and intelligence
which would not be tolerated. We are
fo- Mr.. Bing ham and against all efforts
TO repeal that resolution. 1t was in
tended to operate on Mr.. Vaughan and
it must so operate, or the party will
make itself The laughing stock of ell
political organizations.-THE TRIBUNE.

Widows I'm China

The average Chinaman has a noted
aversion to widows marrying a second
time. Years ago it was impossible for
a widow to have a second husband, but
although the law of the Celestial en-
pire now allows widows to marry again
the woman who thus offends custom is
held in very low este I'm. Occasionally
Chinese widows marry again, in spite
Of public opinion, and of late veal the
number has largely increased.
But a widow who remains a widow
is very popular, and, if her family is
well-tO-do and she suffers no %inconve-
nience, it is much better for her lot to
enter again the matrimonial estate.
She has abundant opportunities for
gaining favor. and her works of virtue
r much appreciated The greatest
virtue, however, is that Of remaining a
widow, and whatever her personal dis
position, b Chinese will not hear a
word against her character if she con-
forms to custom in this respect.
Although honored in life, she is hon.
ored more in death, and some Of the
graves OF widows excel in magnifcence
the tombs OF the richest mandarins.
