AS TO FAcrioHAL DIFFERENCES.


views upon factional differences within
the party that may appear contrary TO
the belief held by the many. 1t refers
to the fears expressed by newspapers
and politicians that the republican par
ty in Iowa will suffer from such fac
tional differences. 1t goes on to justify
in discriminating way the differences
that may exist in the party ranks. and
declares sit is absolutely impossible to
keep the party strong and useful with
out an clement of leaven that may be
identified as factional' The point is
we'll made by the Beacon. Very few
men of the same party who study po-
litical problems are in absolute har-
mony OH all subjects that a party may
deem wise to formulate into plat
minds in the same political company,
and when they get together the views
held by the majority Of them are con-
densed into party declaration, tho
discussion may be developed and con-
tinue for awhile on points of difference.
The Beacon very properly believes that
IF men will quit thinking they will
make no ripples on a serene political
surface" that IF they make themselves
believe that political conditions once
established are the right thing to con-
tinue indefinitely harmony may prevail
until the forces of the dumb deeps
break the monotony with natural erup-
ton
But there are factions and factions,
and the Beacon does not approve of
those of the baser sort grounded who'll
lily on personal strife for position. But
when men differ upon lines of princi-
pie" says the Beacon, "and proceed to
fight out their differences upon the field
of dignified discussion and honorable
action, the timorous ones may possess
their souls In patience, for the peril to
government and society is not serious"
This excludes that sort of journalism
that is based upon bitter personalities,
Misrepresentation or other disreputable
work.
The Beacon gets down to the meat
of its subject by referring to the two
lines of thought running thru minds
and movements In Iowa, and in the ma
tional field In regard to tariff revision,
referring to those who believe that
changes are needful and wise while
prosperity abounds, and to the other
class that believes such work hurtful to
prosperity. The Beacon admits in it's
article given elsewhere that ct may be
that neither element is wholly right.
Good men are conscientiously divided
and uncomfortable distinctions arise.
But it may be safely assumed that the
future will not suffer-" The Beacon of
course refers only to discussion upon
lines of anlity on such differences.
When the time for action comes, and
the time of rallying all the forces is at
hand, the members of the party are ex-
pected to fall into line and support the
principles advocated by the majority.
That is the sort of fractional difference
that meets the views of the Times Re-
publican.

 The Unlawful detainer suit will be brought before Mayor R. T. Goodwin oi Highland Park. There Is no Justice ot the Peace in Highland Park. On this ac- count the case will come up for trial before his honor. the Mayor
 Mir. Stephens claims that he has a lease for a year on some of the lots that have been sold and he points to his growing crops of turnips. onions and cabba ges to substantiate his assertion that he will be financially injured if he'is deprived ot possession of the land at this time. MT Stephens's claim was substantiated by a decision of Justice w. C. Fuller in a. tres pass case that the farmer brought against c. J. Thrasher. the purchaser oi one of the lots.
 The officials of the company. on the other hand. claim that MT. Stephens i' only a tenant at will and they say that his lease will show it. To establish this claim they have brought the unlawful detainer suit before Mayor Goodwin.

ORE MINES CLOSED.
The Tennessee and sloss Companies Cannot Agree.

Oneonta. March 31.-tSpecial. .)-Friday
 r,ornin1 inc Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company ordered the Brown Ore mines at Champion to shut down. ms
 order was made on account or ois-
 agreement between the tennessee Coai,
 Iron and Railroad Company and the Sloss
 Sheffield Coal and Iron company The
 orc and the land on which champion
 stands is the joint property of the com .panies each owning one-half interest, but
 the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad
 Company has been directly and indirect
 ly operating the .mines for several years
 and owned all the machinery used in
 raising and washing the ore
 For a long time there have been nego-
 tiations pending for some agreement
 whereby one of the companies should
 own the entire interest but 1t seems that no agreement could be reached. anq It was decided to shut down the works Under the present contracts the output of the mines was divided equally between the two owners and 1t seems that the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Com pany wanted all of the out put. and did not care to mine raw material for their strong competitors.
 Superintendent Mcdonald and Bank Boss Joe Cawthon are at work with d large force of hands tearing up the pipe lines from the pumps to the washer. This piping will be shipped to Russellville Ala, where the Tennessee company has interests All of the houses and washers are the property of tine Tennessee com pany and it remains to be seen whether ! the company will tear down and move all of its property from here.

HIGH WATERSAT SELMA
wAsHoUTs INTERFERE WITH
 RAILROAD TRAFFIC.
Feared That Two Trestles Between Lake Lanier and the Cahaba River Have Gone-No Lives
 Reported Lost.
Advertiser Bureau,

Selma, Marcn Si.
 The high waters during the past three days have done great damage to rali- roads in the vicinity of Selma. The South ern track was submerged for mile at the point where 1t crosses the Cahaba River. The track was under water from the tank at Lake Lanier to the Cahaba River. There are two trestles between Lake Lanier and the Cahaba, and 1t is feared that both have been washed away and a good deal of the track swept from its bed. There are reports there that mile of the track has been washed away.
 Superintendent Foracre and the entire construction force of 100 men on this d. vision. with material to put in the neces- sary repairs, left for the scene Sunday and went to work as rapidly as the high waters would permit to put in the neces- sary repairs. Tn the meantime the news from there Is that the waters have re- ceded sufficiently for the track to be clear. Arrangements were made to transfer passengers from Meridian. Mobile and Akron, and that was done this morning.
 There is a large washout between Goa topa and York. and it will be several days before 1t can be repaired. In the mean time travel for Meridian will be handled via Akron. It is thought that the dam age to the track and trestles at the Ca haba River will be repaired by tomorrow so that the transfer at that place can be dispensed with.
 negro reached the city Sunday from | the Cahaba River and reported that sew l enty-five negroes were on an island with | the water half way up to their knees. and | wanted Mayor Mcleod to send boats down the river to rescue them. This 1: | thought by many. to have been a wild story. but as the Cahaba rose very fast l it is possible that the report is true. NC casualties have been reported. however from the high waters. '' The Alabama registered forty-efght feet last night on the Government guage.
 This morning at g o'clock it registered forty mine and was still rising slowly. Il | is thought that the river may reach near
 Iy to the point that Mir. Chaffee said i' 1 would go-fifty-three> feet. This fs the biggest river that Selma has had this season. but no losses of stock have been reported, for the planters along the river | were warned in time to get their live stock to the highlands before the bot | toms were inundated. It is expected that | the flood in the Alabama will have spent l itr force in the next twelve hours. and that the waters will then commence to | gradually recede.

Splendid Musical Program.

The services at the Catholic Church yesterday morning at 10 o'clock attracted a large congregation. The musical pro- gram under the direction of Prof. Joseph Roman Groves, consisted of some of the best selections ever rendered in Selma. The music was exceedingly difficult. and the manner in which it was rendered con vinced those who had the pleasure of hearing it that it was the result of much practice and considerable study. Fa- ther McCrary. a young priest of great talent, preached an eloquent and able sermon. appropriate to Easter. Father McCrary is man of fine presence. is perfectly at ease and as an orator ranks high. Father Boice oflciated at high mass.
