Three States in One Bill.

The committee on territories will
 soon report an omnibus bill providing
 for the admission at one bound of
 Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma.
 This leaves only the Indian Territory
 outside of the family of States, not
 counting distant possessions. In all there will be forty-eight States, and the home of the Indians may be No. forty-nine.
 The Democrats of the House will solidly support an omnibus bill, and thus far no strong Republican opposi- tion has been developed. If each statehood. measure stood upon it's own merits, there might be Republican op- position to the admission of Arizona, chiefly because all feel she will be- come Democratic State. At any rate the proposed omnibus bill is se- cure in the House.
 The Senate may say that the bill should stand over to the short session, when it will be known whether the three proposed states propose to send six Democratic Senators or otherwise. The Senate thinks that is the proba- ble nature of the omnibus bill, and 1t may decide to tie it up until after the fall elections, thus holding a threat over the heads of the people of the three proposed States. This is politics, and the Senate rarely fails to play the full game.
 The admission of the three propos- ed States would greatly strengthen the friends of national irrigation of arid lands, as all three greatly need it. Not one of the three can be fully de- veloped without 1t, although much of Oklahoma does not need irrigation at iall. The irrigation issue is a feature i, of the omnibus statehood bill, and 1t may perhaps be decisive of it's fate in the Senate.

CARNEGIE ON FICTION.

New York, March 14.-Andrew Carnegie was the chief guest and principal speaker this evening at the seventh annual din- dieT of the New York Library Club Among the other guests were 900 libra rians of New York City and vicinity. He said:
 We hear a great deal about the in- fiuence of fiction. I have considered the case most carefully. I would not de- prive the lover of books of his fiction. Any sort of book, except one which ex- ercises a bad influence, is better than no book But I believe that if a man give his fortune to endow libraries he might do we'll to bar fiction less than three years old.''
 MT. Carnegie, on the subject of libra ries for rural communities, said:
 T have been much gratified by the many applications of small communities in the West for libraries. And in this connection I will say that, as I knew I would have the pleasure of dinning here tonight, l felt I ought to do something to deserve that pleasure. l have dealt with about forty of these applications to- day and am glad to say that in all ex- cepr perhaps two cases I have seen my way to grant them.''
 MT Carnegie was asked for list of the libraries he had endowed today, but said he was unable to give it. He said, how ever, that the applications for library from Albany, N. r., was one of them and he thought the amount he had given was si75.O.0.

DEMOCRATS AND SHIP SUBSIDY

From the Boston Herald.
 There is some criticism of the Demo- crats in the United States Senate for the tam eness of their opposition to the ship subsidy bill now before that body It is based upon the assumption that the measure should have been more ob- structed in it's passage. This could only have been done by prolonging the debate, and not very much of importance could have been achieved in that way. There have been two able speeches from the Democratic side of the Senate against the bill, those of Mir. Clay of Alabama and MT. Vest of Missouri. The greatest mistake in the case will come on the Democratic side if any Democrat votes for it. McEAurin of South Carolina. of course, has ceased to be a Democrat, and is not to be counted, but McEnery of Louisiana is man with Republican leanings, especially with view to his keeping patronage in New Orleans. He Is always with the Republicans when sugar is involved, and sometimes when 1t is not. If the Democrats can keep a solid front or nearly so, on the ship subsidy Dill, 1t may be of advantage to them as a m easure to be used against the Republicans in the coming elections.

orchestras and Pianos.

"A great deal has been said about the small audiences at the piano recitals this season." remarked a pianist yesterday, but the fact Is only a small number of music lovers care for the piano.
 ''The piano is the most useful of all in struments. It is a great instrument for musical study. It is the instrument alike for the amateur and for the student who aspires to leadership For accompani- ments in parlor or small hall 1t is simply indispensable. But as a concert propo- sition 1t Is lacking. Musical folk certainly grow tired of piano recitas.
 "On the other hand the devotees of music never weary of the first class or chestra. Theodore Thomas, with his matchless symphony band has been to Birmingham several times, and each time he drew a crowd. It will be that way ever. The orchestra is ideal in tone, color and in human intensity of expression The organ can initiate the orchestra in the main; the piano scarcely at all. And yet the organ, with it's many orchestral effects, cannot give out any sound that is like the strings
 "Pianists might come to Birmingham and play their best and not attract, but other master conductor give orchestra concerts and the audiences are large and representative"

Omen Hearth and Bessemer.

The rapid gains that open-hearth
 steel Is making is attracting wide at- tention. Few Bessemer plants are in course of construction, while open hearth plants are going up in every mineral district. The Iron Trade Re view, located where Bessemer ores are abundant. thus discusses the case, leaving not much more to be said:
 It seems to be the habit to consider that the great amount of new erection of basic open-hearth steel plant, against the inac- tivity in Bessemer converter building, is due in considerable part to the smaller amount of capital involved in open-hearth operations. There is not so much in this assumption as commonly credited. It Is true that very small open-hearth plants can be built but as regards capacity rela- tive to Bessemer their cost is high. And 1t Is not true that there Is much building of very small open-hearth plants. Last week we presented a summary of plants under construction. Nearly every one of these involves expenditures which would cover the cost of fair sized con verting plant, If the builders had desired to ,ise this process, with its much greater output Roughly speaking. the money that will build complete open-hearth plant of eight 5O-ton furnaces will build a complete Bessemer plant containing two 15-ton converters but the capacity Of the latter plant would be between three and four time that of the former The fact that so much money is being spent In open-hearth plants. despite the much greater cost per ton of output. Is strong Indication not only that the process pre- sents decided advantages in operation and in the materials that can be utilized but also that it is regarded as the pro- cees of the future. More and more the consumption of steel Is extending in lines which demand the open-hearth product

Congressional Battles of 1902.

In 1894 the Republicans gained con- trol of the House of Representatives, and they have maintained their grip lever since, their majority in the pres rent House being about forty Such a Hong control is very unusual, and there are indications that the country ifs tiring of it, and especially of the sacred tariff.
 Arthur Pue German has been offer ted chairmanship of the Democratic congressional campaign committee, and all Democrats hope he will ac- cept, and if he does the Democrats will fight for a control of the next House with many advantages in their favor. MT. German knows the coun- try thoroughly well, and he is a man of sound judgment and rare political sense, and the battle will be half won if he accepts the chairmanship.
 The new census added twenty y-nine members to the roll of the House, bringing it up to 3S6 members, but this addition will not materially affect

COMMERCE OF PHILIPPINES.
Imports Show an Increase of 25 Per
 Cent for 1901.

Washington, March 16.-The compara- five statement of the commerce of the Philippines for the elght months ended August 3l. 1901 and 1900 shows that the total value of merchandise imported dur ing the eight months ended August u, 1901, was s19, SIS, 596, against $14,5S0, 451 for the same period of 1900 and the total value of merchandise exported during the eight months ended August 31 1901, was SIG. .9S5. .4O5 against $15, 92S015 for the same period of 1900.
 The imports show an increase of 8 per cent during the period of 1901, as com pared with the same period of 1900. In the exports there was a six per cent increase in favor of 1901. The imports from the United States, exclusive of gold and sil- yer during the eight months of 1901 was S2, 40, 05O being an increase of S4 per cent over the same period of the preceding year while the export figures show $11,- 960, 6S7, or slight increase in favor of 1901. The import figures show a gain of nearly sl70O0,OO0 for stuffs and in manu- factured articles of nearly $4.OOOO00 for the eight months of 1901. Agricultural exports for the periods mentioned show a slight increase during 1901, the show ing for this period being $14, 539.SS7 of which amount s1O. 5G6 is credited to hemp. the leading article of export. The export figures of $l,709.169 in manufacture ed articles for the period of 1901 nearly doubled those of 1900 while products of the mines and forests show decided in- crease over 1900

ASTONISHING FIGURES.

From Leslie's Weekly
 Few people have any idea of the enor- mity of the insurance business of the United States. It not only exceeds that of any other country, but Is twice as great as that of all of the rest of the world combined At the present time there is in the United States about s12- 0,000 900 of life insurance in force includ- ing assessment business. This means over $160 for every man, woman and child In the country. or sS0OO for every family. surance companies are estimated at $2O, GOO, coo. which is $250 per capita. or s125O per family Thus it will be seen that every family in the country. on an aver age. has insurance assets of over $2,OOO

REGISTRARS IN FRANKLIN.
Many White Voters Thought They
 Would be Disfranchised.

Russellvile, March 16.-(SpeciaD-Th Franklin county board of registration be- gan the work of registering the legal vot- CTS under the new constitution Tuesday. At Poseys Mill in the southeastern part of the county, 52 voters registered the first day, 66 the second at Kirby's, in the same beat.
 Five would-be voters were rejected the first two days by the board, not having lived in the State the time required by the new constitution. McNairs. the beat in which registration commenced, has only white voters almost all Republican, or Populists heretofore, and bitterly op- posed to the new constitution, believing they would almost to a man be dis franchised. Substantial men out there be- lieve firmly that registration would be re- fused them unless they subscribed to an oath that they would in future support the Democratic nominee. The reality was a pleasant surprise and almost full vote was registered, one negro applied and was turned down.

 LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Money Still Scarce and There is No
 Prospect of Relief.

London, March 16.-Too many depress- ing influences were abroad last week to premit of much activity on the stock ex- change. Money is still scarce and there is TO prospect of this scarcity being re- lieved by large government disbursements until after the Easter holidays.
 The capture of General Methuen by the Bocrs was the most serious factor of the week from the sentimental point of view, although the suppression prevented what would doubtless have been a disastrous slump Of the market. There is no ques- tio1 that the stock exchange is now in healthier condition than 1t has been for several weeks past owing to the drastic shaking out of the weak bulls but there Is no disposition to embark upon fresh commitments at the present moment. Mines were dull with only a slight decline on the weak, but their general ranges was from 10 to 15 per cent below the early part of the year.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

From the Chicago News.
 A wise man never gives advice until he Is asked for it.
 All men are good-good for something or good for nothing.
 It takes an extemporaneous speaker to talk fiuently about nothing
 At least the nickel-in-the-slot machine is not a catch-penny affair.
 Happy is the man who sees things as they should be instead of as they are.
 Wit is a peculiar kind of talk that often leads to pulled noses and broken heads.
 An agreeable man is one who consents to being taught things which he already knows.
 Some pretty women are unconscious of their beauty, but the majority are not even momentarily forgetful.
 Those who are satisfied with what they have accomplished will never become fa- nous for what they might accomplish.
 The average man never fully realizes the truth of the adage about fool and his money until after he has bumped up against some other mans game.

the political composition of the House. Three or four members moro may be added by the admission as States of Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma, but the next House will at any rate consist of 9S6 members, or twenty-nine more than 1t ever held before.
 As a preparation for the great cam paign of 1904 the carrying of the next House by the Democrats is very i'm portant, and no chances should be taken in Alabama by which a member might be lost to the Democratic par ty. Mir. Burnett represents a close district, but under the new constitu- tion it will scarcely be possible to un- seat him. The lines in each district should be well drawn, and especial care should be taken to give the party that fights reciprocity with Cuba or any other country no comfort at all. If the Democrats carry the next House all the colonial and imperial business of the Republican party will be checked, and at least half dozen dangerous issues will be at once trans ferred to the people for final decision.
