Farmer Ben in the Austin
Transcript has few idsas of
his own along the line of elect
ing senators by a direct vote
of the people.
II see that senator Clapp,
congressman Tawney and other
big statesmen are whoopin' it
up for popular election of
United States senators and
therein they agree teetotally
with Farmer Ben. [ can't see
why the legislator is filter than
the people all over to select
and pick and elect senators
for the national powwow and
from what my memory serves
me there has been lots of boOd-
lin and wranglin' and lobbyin'
and monkeyin' and wire pullin'
in this business that would be
pretty nuchly eliminated by
the method of direct votin' on
senator without the interven-
ton of the statesmen that
draw their salaries as legis-
lators. Some make objection
that the senators, bein' farther
removed from the people, are
more calm and dignified and
conservative and steady and
don't go off at half cock 50 easy
as the representatives that are
nearer the people and catch
the passin' whims and queer
nesses of the populace and act
hastily on 'em only to repent
later. But my observation
leads me to believe that we can
bank on the representatives as
quick as we can on the senate.
Sometimes the push down to
wants to move
nifty quick for the interests of
the people and if the senators
had moved to take off the tariff |
On trust made goods as quick
as the representatives did we'd
nav had some relief already |
instead of bein' pushed by a
slow senate that is so far away
rom the people that they don't
Civ a continental what they
demand.

Congressional campaigns are
beginning to warm up all over
the state, and up in the Ninth
district there is no exception
to the rule. All three can
didates, Valentine, Stevenson
and Grindeland, are putting in
long hours, and judging from
reports, public meetings will
enter largely into the cam
paign. Ezra @. Valentine seems
to be in the lead at present
and we believe he will land
the nomination. Well, he de-
serves it. Mr.. Valentine has
worked hard in the interests
of the farmers in this section
of the state, and he is the man
they want to represent them
In congress. Ezra has all
kinds of friends in this district,
especially in the western part
where they have derived the
benefits of his efficient service
on the State drainage board,
and they want to see him
win.

THE r1EKGER.

The Pioneer Press is de
lighted over the vast benefits
to the people that have come
from the railroad merger. It is
almost beyond belief, but the
people have been helped SC
much that they will during the
coming year be able to pay in
passenger and freight rates
$15O,OOO,OOO to the owners OF. the
three railroads., and the sur
plus over running expenses
and bond interest will be SO
large that 6 per cent. divi-
dend can be declared on the
$4OO,OOO,OOO of Northern Securi-
ties stock-a total dividend of
$32,OOO,OOO. When this stock
receives 8 per cent. dividends,
it can be converted into double
the quantity of 4 per cent
bonds. That would make
$8OO,OOO,OOO of bonds-and the
merger has been so beneficial
to the people that they can pay
it. When the $1O7, 100000 of
Burlington railroad was good
for ] per cent. dividends that
stock was converted by the
merger crowd into $22O,OOO,OOO
of 4 per cent bonds. So the
conversion of the Northern Sc
Curities stock into double the
of bonds would be
more conservative f1nanCiering
than the earlier movement
was, and almost as beneficial
to the people. Oh, it is a gor-
geOus bubble! And the law
still pursues the promoter of
the ordinary get-rich-quick
scheme. The lawless sChemer
is pursued in order to protect
voluntary victims from giving
him their money. The rail
roads operate under public
charters, and exist by the laws
authority. The people pay
them money because they have
to. The railroads were granted
the right to perform necessary
public serviCes--and the people
must rely on them for the SER
ices. The railroads are en-
titled to fair returns. But they
are not entitled to large divi-
dends on hundreds of millions
of watered stock and inflated
bonds that do not represent a
| l ar of invested money.-Lit-
lie Falls Herald.

that Democracy has no man

There's just one of two
things. Either some man, with
extraordinary intelligence will
have to devise some scheme
for beating the coal trusts at
their game, or some genius
will have to invent a cheap

CONGRESSIONAL.

Benson Times: Hon. NJ. J
Bowling of Renville, speaker
of the house, made Benson a
visit Friday, looking after his
congressional chance, and the
Times office a call. There is
no better fellow socially than
Mike and he has ability as
we'll, and seems to think he is
going to succeed in his quest
this time. He can't expect
much in this county, though,
and the expression of three or
four at republican headquarters
in st. Paul last week, was to
the effect that from what they
could learn Young had the
best of the race so far. If our
man can't pick the persimmon,
however, we confess to a will
ingness to see Mike gather the
fruit.
Morris tribune., 1902-08-23

Fairmont News: Our advice
to James J. Jefries is that he
go south and run for congress.
AS fists seem to count for more
than statistics in that locality
he is better qualified than any
other man we know of to be
elected. One of his right hand
ers on the jaw would probably
induce his opponent to with
draw from the contest and an
would convince the
most sceptical that Jim is a
great man. We suggest this
for fear that Jim is neglecting
his opportunities.

Browns Valley Tribune
Congressman Heatwole is
quoted as saying that if NJ.
J. Bowling were resident of
the Third district he D could
have the nomination for con-
gress without opposition. But
at the time the state was re-
districted by the Legislature
Mike Bowling as speaker OF
the house insisted on having
his home county of Renville
taken out of the Third and set
over into the Seventh district
where, as he quietly intimated
to his friends, he expected to
have a 1ead-pipe cinCh for the
congressional nomination. AS
have since turned out,
and Mike finds himself third
in the race, he is no doubt long
since convinced that we had
some pretty lively congress
sional timber in the Seventh
district before the annexation
of Renville county.

There are evidences of the
still hunt tactics in Dowling's
campaign. He has won out
before on that kind of a cam
paign and may roll out some
vote in unexpected places this
time. 1t will likely be a close
race between Bowling and VOL
stead for second place, while
Young lands the nomination.
Dawson Sentinel.
Morris tribune., 1902-08-23

Reports from all over the
district 60 to show that Mr..
Young is holding all of the
ground gained in theearly part
of the campaign and is making
a strong and steady. increase in
sections that have been con-
coded to the other candidates.
In an estimate given out by
Congressman Eddy, Mr.. Young
is given a plurality of 1000.

INDIFFERENT TO
 DEATH SENTENCES
NEGROES IN COUNTY JAIL CON- DEMNED TO SUFFER CAPITAL PUNISHMENT ARE APPARENTLY WITHOUT CONCERN.

At present about 15O prisoners are in careerated in the Jefferson county jail Of this number probably 125 are negroes and about dozen of these negroes are women.
 The inmates of the jail are charged with most every conceivable crime. from vagrancy to rape
 There are three negroes under death sentence. Will Dorsey, one of them will hang August for the crime of highway robbery. This is the first legal execution in the history of Alabama for this of- fense.
 The condemned negroes all appear to be indifferent to their fate. Even Taylor Charleston, the negro respited by Cover nor Jelks, and who was to have been hung Friday, showed nu special relief when in formed of the postponement of his execution and the possibility of a reprieve.
 They all believe that their sins have been forgiven and that they quit this earth only to bask in elysan fields. They are daily strengthened in their faith by the visits of preachers of their color.

POLICE RECOVER
 STOLEN PROPERTY
ARREST OF TOBE ROBINSON, A NEGRO, LEADS TO THE FINDING OF PROPERTY STOLEN FROM JOHN H. RANES.

The arrest of Tobe Robinson, a negro, last night resulted in the recovery Of nearly $15O0 worth of cloths, cut glass, wedding presents and other articles stolen from the home of John H. Ranes, Twelfth street and Tenth avenue, South. Five negroes have been arrested charged with being implicated in the crime.
 The history of the case starts on June 21 when Detective Waldrop arrested Charlie Jackson, a negro. on charge of larceny of some silver candlesticks. The negro claimed he brought them from Jacksonville, Fla, where they were stolen during the fire At the trial Jackson was released and Attorney Bullock demanded the candlesticks of Chief Austin, who refused to deliver them. Suit is now pending for them in the courts.
 Several days before the trial Mir. Ranes returned home from a trip which began may 15. He found his house had been burglarized and reported the matter to Chief Austin. While in the latter's of flee he recognized his candlesticks and Charlie Jackson was rearrested. In the meantime Freeman McElroy was arrested by Policemen Patton and Waldrop and held in jail He afterwards confessed to the police that he and Jackson had bur glarized the house and told where most of the goods were concealed.
 Policemen Waldrop and Patton began an investigation and recovered $950 worth of property. The rest will be recovered today Tobe Robinson last night con fessed to having been implicated in the robbery and told where some of the goods were hidden.
 The two other negroes arrested are Ed Collins and Eugene Butler charged with receiving and concealing stolen property. The negroes will be tried today before Judge Feagin,

 The Rev. Dr. A. J. Dickinson: I think it is great paper. It is the very thing we need for the development of our sec ton. I think it is a pioneer of develop ment and that its effects will be felt here in a very short time.

 Alderman Harry Jones: It is all right. I have mailed several copies today to friends out of town.

PLEASED WITH AGE-RERALD'S
 ANNUAL INDUSTRIAL REVIEW

The Age-Herald's anniversary edition issued yesterday was widely read and elicited many favorable comments. The form of the industrial review supplement seems to have made particular good im- pression. Following are some of the diff ferent expressions heard;
 Mayor w. M. Drennen: It is the best anniversary edition I ever saw It Is credit to The Age-Herald, the city and the state. The industrial supplement can be used for months as a work of refer ence The facts, so far as I know, are correct and the plan is superb. The con- tents are in good proportion, no one sub ject being given undue space.
 Robert Jemlson: I think 1t Is the best paper The Age-Herald has ever gotten out. It will be good for ready reference. I extend my congratulations to the paper.
 T. O. Smith: The Age-Herald certainly should feel proud of today's special edi- tion. have heard great many compli- ments about it.
 Dr. J. c. LeGrande: The edition was exceptionally creditable and I congratu- late The Age-Herald.
 ". B. Leedy; One cannot speak too highly in praise of the industrial edition. I am delighted with it, and all the peo- pie I have met today have expressed themselves in the same way. The form of the supplement, both on account of it's appearance and its convenience. It can be laid aside and taken up again from

TRADES COUNCIL
 ELECTS OFFICERS
p. H. MOORE IS PRESIDENT, T. c. M'cAIN VICE-PRESlDENT, H. N. RANDALL SECRETARY, F. E. CoOLE TREASURER.

The Birmingham Trades Council at it's regular session at Bricklayers' hall yes terday afternoon elected officers to serve for the ensuing term of six months, and transacted considerable other business of importance.
 The officers elected were: P. II. Moore, president T. c. Mccain, vice president; H. N. Randall, secretary; F. E. Coole treasurer; Phillip Heck, sergeaut-at- arms; Joe Brant, doorkeeper; B. w. Brumley, w. A. Harris and w. w. Bradbury, trustees.
 H. N. Randall was elected delegate to the American Federation of Labor, which meets in New Orleans the third Wednes- day in October.
 MT. Coole, the new treasurer, represents the Barbers union. and was secretary of the grievance committee the last term. He is an earnest worker. Mir. Mccain, the vice president, represents the Amal- gamated Association of Street Railway Employees. The greater part of last term the vice presidents chair was filled by Miss Alice Nall of the Salesladies' union.
 A strong resolution was adopted con- demning the importation of men to take the place of striking machinists, boiler makers, blacksmiths and bricklayers. Hundreds of dollars are being spent send ing these men out of town. and many or them state that things were misrepre- scented to them. Efforts will be made to stop the proceedings.
 The grievance committee had lengthy report. Several matters were reported satisfactorily settled, and two firms were placed on the councils unfair list. The consideration of the reports consumed considerable time.
 The council will meet again the second Sunday in August.

the district, and contains a world of valuable information which it would be difficult to obtain elsewhere.
 Allen J. Krebs: I was much pleased with the' anniversary supplement. The splendid exhibit of the industrial features of the Birmingham district is of great in- terest end value, and will bring good re- suits. The unique form in which the sup plement appeared must impress everyone favorably.
 Dr. J. S. Winters, Bessemer: The Age Herald industrial edition is the best thing of it's kind I have ever seen.
 S. W. Jones: Your industrial edition is the best. in my opinion, ever issued by any paper in the south, and certainly in Alabama.
 Oscar Venahle: The anniversary special was excellent. Its size and ciever make up are wonderfully attractive.
 A. B. Loveman: think the plan on which the supplement was gotten up is a good one. It is an excellent industrial edition. and Is very creditable to the Age-Herald as an up-to-date newspa- per.
 Gus F. Tombs, foreman for Roberts & Son: The anniversary edition was cer- tainly a success from an artistic stand point The general makeup of the pa- per and the artistic first page were as attractive as any paper I have seen in the south The size and compact manner in which it was gotten up are also worthy of praise.

TO MEET TONIGHT.
Members of Proposed Artillery Com.
 pany Will Elect Captain.

A meeting of the members who are to compose the battery of artillery soon to be mustered into service here will be held tonight at 2021 First avenue. It Is ex- pected that the battery will be permanent ly organized and an effort will be made to find out when it can be mustered into service.
 The officers of the company have been named, except the captain, and 1t is ex- pected his name will be made public to- morrow night at the meeting Some de- lay has been occasioned by the absence of Adjutant General Brandon from Mont gomery this past week, but he will soon return from the encampment at Mobile.
 Everything now depends on him as the company has a full muster and is ready to begin drilling as soon as equipment can be furnished.

AN ARREST UNDER
 NEW ORDINANCE
LAW PROHIBITING STREET BANDS FOLLOWED BY PERSONS CAR RYINo SIGNS FOR ADVERTISING PURPOSES TO BE TESTED.

At a recent meeting Of the board of aldermen an ordinance was passed pro- hibiting bands, followed by persons car ryIng signs. from passing through the streets for advertising purposes.
 As no copy of the ordinance has been handed the chief of police, the bands are still marching the streets ana poys are still carrying signs advertising baseball games, special shoe sales and other mat ters to attract the attention Of the pub lie.
 Chief Austin says that although he has never received a copy of the ordinance, it was passed at his request, and that being so, he has had a negro arrested to make a test case. The negro will be tried today and the legality of the ordinance will be decided by Judge Feagin.
 The ordinance refers to wagons used for nothing but advertising, signs carried by boys and many other methods used by advertisers to get their wares perore thu public.
