REPUBLIcANIsM IN THE SOUTH
sLilly-White" Business Not Approved b,
the Washington Leaders.


Washington. Nov. IL. = Julian II.
Bingham, collector of internal revenue
for the district of Alabama, has been
removed from his Office and Joseph o.
Thompson appointed to succeed him.
The change was made as a result of a
political condition which recently arose
in Alabama. Colored Republicans were
excluded from participation in the state
convention, and Collector Bingham was
held responsible, at least in a meas
ure, for their exclusion. Postmaster
General Payne visited the White
House yesterday. and as he left the
executive offices he made public the
following statement defining the rea-
sons for the change:
''The change in the office of collector
Of internal revenue for the district of
Alabama in nowise reflects upon the
integrity or ability of Mr.. Bingham.
1t is one of those things which oc-
casionally happen in politics. The po-
sition taken by the Republicans Of Ala
bama at their recent state convention,
as understood by the Republicans of
the north, is looked upon as a per-
version of the fundamental principles
of the Republican party, ard Mr.. Bing-
ham is in a measure held responsible
for that action; hence the change.
Neither the administration nor the
Republican party of the north will
stand for the exclusion of any Sec
ton of our people by reason of their
race or color, when, in other respects,
such persons have complied with the
laws and are eligible under the law to
full and free participation IN political
action and are of high standard of
personal character"

AGAINST THE EIGHT-HoUR DEMAND

Certified Mon Do Not a. . General Thing
Work Eight Hours q Day Now.
In reply to the demand for an eight
hour day Baer says it is neither just
nor equitable. He says: 1.-The certi-
fed miners, under present conditions,
seldom work eight hours a day. The
greater cost in the production and
preparation Of anthracite coal for mar
ket is not the cutting of the coal. Many
employees are paid by the month. the
pumping continues day and night, the
machinery Is expensive, and the cost
of coal is largely conditioned on the
collieries running full time. The out
put is entirely dependent on the guam
tity of coal a certified miner is willing
to cut daily, and because of thic it is
seldom practicable to work the full
breaker time
''In general we deny, In so far
as they relate to anthracite mining,
that the ten-hour day is detrimental
to the health, life, safety and well be-
ing of the mine workers; that shorter
hours improve the physical, mental and

Baer then tells of the strike ordered

The reply then calls attention to the
