OSBORNE AND BATTLE.

It is of current interest to note that two of the most conspicuous lawyers III the recent great Molineux murder trai in New York are Southerners Tney are James w. Osborne. the assistant district attorney, who conducted the prosecution and George Gordon Battle Of counsei TOT the defense. Both are North CaroEnlans, their birthplaces being not far apart; they removed to New York to practice law several years ago. though not at the same time; they hung out their modest shingle respectively, and waited for practice as patiently as they might; and so it came to pass that they confronted each other in the most celebrated murder trial of this generation. Both are members of the New York Southern Society, and now their fortunes are made so far as reputa- tion goes.
 Mir Osborne, by the way, has relatives residing in Birmingham, and Mir. Battle has relatives in Eufaula. Thus some thing of Alabama interest attaches to their enviable reputations at the metropo- Titan bar.
 Judge Augustus Van wyck is .as you are aware, something of an Alabamian. In his last speech before the Southern Society, of which he Is a member, he de- clared he was nurtured in infancy in South Carolina, in sght of the beautiful scenery of Georgia; born of parents resi- dents of Alabama CTuscaloosa) educated in North Carolina; married in Virginia; have fought professional battles in the courts of Tennessee and Mississippi; was interested in sugar and cotton planta- tions in Louisiana and Arkansas; winter ed in Florida; summered in the mountains of Kentucky and West Virginia; land owner in Texas, plus the hope of strik- ing an oil gusher; preached to by min ister from the Eastern shore of Maryland; royalty received by the people of Mis- souri, and feasted on the luscious peaches of Delaware, and have living kindred upon and dead kinsmen under the soil of each"
 Very eloquent; but where did he find "summered" and "wintTed?" Mayhap he found them "Sundaying" in New York, "Saturdaying' down the bay.

CHILD LABOR IN GEORGIA.

If recent reports may be trusted some of the representatives of the mills in Georgia are not fighting the child labor bill there in a very straightforward way. The Advertiser is not only in favor of a conservative law on this subject but it believes the question should be consid- cred and debated in a fair and open way. The Mobile Register speaks editorially as follows:
 The Georgia Legislature is struggling with bill to regulate child labo" in inc mills of the State, and some, ; ,f T sensation has been caused by t..e ac, lii of the Chairman of the Committee ti'a- bor and Labor Statistics). who noN11 10 have the bill transferred from h.s tu'n4 mittee to the Committee on cdu cation. The motion was carried by very large vote of the House, which indicates that the bill, if submitted to the House, will be adopted.
 Chairman c. c. Houston says of his action
 After an investigation of the matter, I have become convinced that the Com mittee was appointed with view to bringing in an adverse report on the bill.
 1 have found that fifteen of the twenty two members of the Committee are op- posed to the bill. Thus 1t was intended
 that the bill should be shelved in the N-O an adverse report on it back to the House
 For that reason, had the bill recommit' ted to the Committee on Education, where I am satisfied 1t will have a fair and i'm partial hearing, and, believe, favor able report.
 MT. Houston states the bare facts as they appear to him. It is very probable
 that the mill interests. fearing the result of a vote in the House, have been at work on the Labor Committee. They seem to have slipped up in their plan. how ever for. although they got control of the Committee, they failed to control the Chairman thereof; and the Chairman l took short road to defeat the lobby. The Committee on Education may not he composed of men favorable to the de- | sired legislation. but the vote in the House | is tantamount to command to bring in | a favorable report. There can be little doubt of the result,
 A law preventing children under 12 (with
 certain exceptions) from labor in man. ufacturing establishments is conserva-
 tive proposal. and will really forestal more radical Legislation. We are glad tc
 see that some of the mills are taking that view of it. Certainly the matter should
 go, both in Georgia and Alabama, before l fair Committees and should have an open | and impartial hearing.

Letters to the Editor.

 E~4l


 Edit,r The Advertiser:
 Some tims lgo I noticed an editorial in your paper on corn cobs. and you won dered at the use they were being put to and why a certain mill was grinding thousands of tons. l knew at that time, from experience, to what use some of 1t was being put. A great deal of it goes into what is sold or put upon the mar ket as Wheat Bran" Most any dairy man or person who buys and uses this so-called wheat bran and who has been a close observer can vouch for the above statement. I have very often found pieces of cobs and grains of corn among the bran, and upon rubbing the bran briskly between my hands have discovered the cheat. Good wheat bran will whiten the hands, while the sO-called or mixed bran scarcely leaves a stain. Try it.
 Now, is not this, among other swim dles sufficient cause for the General As- sembly to legislate just little bit in the interest of the people, and if not the peo- pie, then in the interest of the dumb beasts who are being swindled out of a portion of their food every time they are fed for it is no more fattening or sustaining than dry broom sedge. Let some of our young Representatives to the General Assembly take hold of it and show the people what they can do. Let them give us a pure food commission as well as a Railroad Commission.

PAY POLL TAX.

On or before the first If next Februaty you can pay your poll 'ax for the past and for the present year and be come qualified voter in all me c!rctot s to be held next year.

To the citizen who values the right of suffrage, the payment of poll tax should be a very small and in- significant matter.

the Democrats did not have as much show as a rabbit. And 1t seems to have been about that way all over the State. Whatever the Republicans wanted they took. but, as the Democrat says. Defeat never hurts a good Democrat" We are not so sure about that. Defeat may not work permanent or mortal injury but it sometimes hurts like the mischief. A fellow may feel too big to cry but he can't always help making ugly faces and perhaps grunting a little when he Is swatted real hard by the other party. That's our idea of 1t.

He Was A Dead One.

1t develops that the man who TecelVed the highest vote on the socialist State ticket in Montana had been dead for several weeks before the election. The voters evidently felt that there was less harm in dead socialist than live one Roanoke Leader.
 You fail to catch the idea. That big vote was the Montana idea of giving a denarted contemporary good seni-of It was their way of showing respect for the dead, and of giving him proper obituary notice.

Politics IS of course the main consideration, ana the full returns of the recent elections in the territories will mat sriaily anect the vote on the Statehood bill. If the voters had been wise they would have voted solidly for the Republican nominees for delegates in Congress, in which case the Republican Senate would have unhes- itatingly passed the bill as it came from the House, but as the results of the cleo. tions seem undecisive, the fate of the bill Is doubtful, with chances rather against its passage. Seeing that six Senators ana nine votes in the electoral college are 1n- voived, 1t Is impossible for the big Re- publican majority in the Senate to rise above the most selfish of partisan con alterations in the discharge Of solemn constitutional duty Still 1t may be that the partisan Senators will be convinced that the territories if admitted as States would be safely Republican As for Oklahoma, it now has population or nearly half a million and to longer delay giving 1t the right of Statehood would be outrageous. Arizona and New Mexico each has more than sufficient population to secure a Congressman under the pres ent ratio of representation.
