TEACHERS ASSOCIATION
Meeting at Selma Productive of Great
 Results

Selma, April 15.-(Special.) )-The nine teenth annual session of the Alabama State Teachers association, one of the best in the history of this gathering, has added its quota to the educational growth of the southern negro. In points of at- tendance, interest and practical fruitful ness, the session of the association was eminently successful. From beginning to finish large, attentive and apreciative au- diences greeted the teachers The most genial and harmonious spirit prevailed throughout the entire session.
 The opening meeting, with its thoughtful and instructive addresses of welcome and response. and the strong. progressive an- nual address of the president, Professor J. w. Beverly, was exceedingly attrac tive.
 All of the papers showed careful prepar- ation, and deep insight into the subjects discussed. Those who skeptical as to the progress and final salvation of the ne- gro should attend one of these annual gatherings of the leaders of the race. It would no doubt multiply the influence and usefulness of the association if its deliber- ations could be brought to the masses and the many who cannot be present at it's meetings.
 The presence and address of States Su- perintendent Abercrombie was full of hope and encouragement.
 The Confederation of Women, and the Alabama Medical congress, which are component parts of the A. s. T. A., held profitable sessions The race has every reason to be proud of its women and doc tors, for at these meetings they deported themselves most creditably. These three organizations bring together the very best in the race, and furnish a fair index of the progress of the negro. The next meet ing of the association will meet in Bir- 11ainphann Ala

PREFERRED THE BARREL
From the Asheville CN. O Citizen.

From the Asheville (N. O Citizen.
 Oscar Carpenter was sentenced some three weeks ago to work on the streets thirty days for vagrancy. During the three weeks of his incarceration here MT. Bostie has never succeeded in getting a stroke of work out of Carpenter, although he has tried every means suggested by his experience. Yesterday the gang was taken to Pine street. One end was knocked out of barrel, a hole to fit the tired man s neck was made in the other end, and This Man Won't Work was painted on the side. In this loud costume Carpenter marched with the gang, took his stand in the middle of the street while the others worked, and-simply grinned. When ask ed this morning whether he would take out the barrel pick, he decided upon the barrel as being easier to carry.

HUMOR IN RESULT OF
 SENATORIAL CONTEST

There is something of very grim humor in the general result of the Morgan-J John ston contest for the United States sena- torship.
 Adjutant General William w Brandon, colonel on Governor Johnstons staff, and the governors chief lieutenant in his can vass of the state, has been nominated in Tuscaloosa for reelection to the house of representatives, and, at the same time, in- structed to vote for the reelection of Sen ator Morgan.
 State Senator Chalres w. Thompson of Macon, one of the stoutest and hardest working supporters of Governor Johnston, and himself a candidate for congress, has been instructed to vote for Morgan. State Senator Samuel J. Jenkins of Will cox, an original Johnston supporter has been instructed for Morgan
 State Senator P. O. Stevens of Tala- poosa, an ardent supporter of Governor Johnston, has likewise received instruc- lions to vote for Morgan.
 Thus three of the hold-over state sena- tors who have given their time and talents to the cause of the governor, have been instructed to vote for the great old man whom they and the governor were fight ing

Thompson, Johnston candidate 421; Johns Kelley, John ston candidate, 144 A L. Arnold Morgan candidate, 115. Out of eleven candidates for sheriff, E. H. Crawford is in the lead, having received 3S9 votes. Ben Griffin, populite, received 131 votes, and the knot will be united Saturday, April 21, between Crawford and Griffin. Under the agree ment between the popultes and demo- crats, two primaries were to have been held; the first April fl, which was for all white men; the second, April 21, will be held to decide the issue between the demo- crats who received the biggest number of votes on the 14th, and the populite who received the biggest number of votes on the same day for the same office. No vote was taken for governor and state officials Five delegates were elected to attend the state convention, and they go uninstructed, although the sentiment seems to be for Sanford for governor. The issue was made along that line. The delegates are w c. Diekey Dr. M. c. Schoolar w. w. Laven- der, J. c. Clifton and R. c. Parker.
