Mark Hanna's Opportunity.

Senator Hanna recently said in the
course of an interview:
I am not a candidate for President and
do not expect to become a candidate. l
want everybody to understand this, so
that / can go on with the task assigned
to me by the National Civic Federation.
without having my motives viewed with
suspicion. I would rather be instrument
tai in bringing the employing classes and
the working classes together, 50 that
strikes and other Industrial disturbances
would be minimized. If not wholly abol-
ished, and have credit for that achieve
ment placed upon my tombstone, than be
President of the United States. I am
convinced that If I can accomplish the
task set for me, I shall be a genuine
benefactor OF my country, whereas, If I
should be President I am not so certain
of the good could do
Assuming that this is straight talk
ing, the Age-Herald desires to call
Mr.. Hanna's attention to an oppor-
tunity that awaits him in Augusta,
Georgia. There 10000 cotton mill op-
eratives are locked out because they
want shorter hours and higher pay.
They had, as they think, too much of
the former and too little of the lat
ter. The manufacturers do not agree
with them, and strike is on that is
working much injury to the people
and the city. Here Is a field for Mr..
Hanna. If he can bring the opera
tives and manufacturers together, Au-
gusta at least will declare him "a
genuine beneIactor" of his country,
and that will be start at least In
the direction of his new ambition.

MURDERER is KNOWN.
Police Have Information That c. B
Hadley Killed Miss Fuller.

San Francisco, April 20.-Chief of
Police Whitman has officially announc-
ed that the murderer of Nora Full
Ter was c. B. Hadley, for fourteen
years accountant in the business office
of a San Francisco newspaper. On
January 16, the day of the disappear
ance of Nora Fuller, G. B. Hadley dis
appeared and has not been seen since.
Theo. Kylka, the handwriting expert,
declares that the man who wrote the
name Charles B. Hawkins to the ad-
vertisement Turing Nora Fuller to her
death was G. B. Hadley.
Nora Fuller, 16-year-old girl, left
her home on January 16 to answer an
advertisement for a nurse girl. A
month later her nude body was found
in a vacant house on Suffer street.
She had been murdered.
Miss Clara Dixon has made state
ment to the police which apparently
proves conclusively that Hadley killed
Nora Fuller. Hadley and Clara Dixon
lived together, and In her statement
she says that she saw Hadley for the
last time on the morning Of January
IS. On the day Of Hadley's disap-
pearance she was preparing bundle
for the laundry, when she came across
several of his undergarments stained
with blood. These she burned. She
explained her actions by saying that
the Nora Fuller stories had frightened
her, and she admitted that she sus-
pected Hadley of having had some
connection with the crime.

to send to the South for cottonsced meal
to feed their stock with. The price of tat
cattle on the hoof at the Chicago stock
yards has advanced from 4 to cents
pound to cents. Men who have fine
beef cattle to sell can almost get their
own price.
There is a great demand for cattle
and that means a great demand for beef
The people Of the United States are eat
ing more beef now than they ever did
before in their history. This is because
they are making money and spending IT,
There are not many families in this coun-
try that do not have their steaks and
roasts and poiled pieces. The American
people are by long odds the best-fed
people in the world.
Under such circumstances 1t Is only
natural that the price of beef should ad-
vance. Cattle and meat, like all other
commodities. have to follow the laws OF
supply and demand. The men who have
cattle to sell naturally want the highest
prices they can get. 1t is the same with
the packers and retailers

0reuon Will Lead Off.

No State election will occur this
year until June 2 when Oregon will
elect a governor, legislature and men,
bers of Congress. The term of Gov
ernor Geer will expire next January,
and the new governor will hold office
four years. The legislature meets BIZ
annually.
The tickets on each side have been
placed in nomination. and the plat
form of the Democrats assails the
Dingley tariff and its creatures, the
trusts, and demands the election of
Senators by the people and the ini-
tiative and referendum.
Governor Geer, a Republican, was
elected in 1898 by 1851 plurality,
and Mr.. Mckinley carried the State
in 1900 by plurality of 1914, but
before 1898 the State was holly con-
tested, the majority either way being
small M'cKinley's plurality In 1896
was about 1000.
The State will be well contested in
the next six weeks, and a vote de-
nouncing the general governmental
policy in Cuba and the new posses
sions, and the Dinghy tariff would
put new life into the Democratic
party in other States. The two con-
gressmen of Oregon are both Repub-
licans, and their defeat would be In
terpreted as a warning that the party
which fosters trusts and mergers and
capitalism in general is no longer
wanted by the people. There. are
prophets on both sides Of the fence
in Oregon, and one VIII have to wait
until June 2 before a definite idea of
the trend OF public sentiment in Ore
gon can be ascertained.

the ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Mills North and South.

Two-thirds of the spindles In the
country are in New England and
about like proportion Of looms. The
great cotton centers in New England
are Lewiston, Me-, $4,000 spindles;
Manchester, N. H., 100000; Law
renee, Mass, $4,000; New Bedford,
Mass, 100000; Lowell, Mass, 91o.-
900; Fall River, Mass, 100000, and
Providence, R. l., and the Blackstone
valley, 100000 spindles. 1t is a mis-
take to say that the industry In New
England Is in a decadent condition,
for 1t is not, and today New Bedford
is putting up three new mills, and
Fall River two, and old ones are be-
ing refitted in all parts of New Eng
land.
New England's ambition is to make
the finer and more artistic goods,
leaving the weaving of the coarser
goods to the Southern mills. The
best dyeing and finishing plants are
now built in New England, and these
mills turn out products that range
from mosquito netting to the finest
lawns, corduroys, velvets, pushes and
the like. The calico mills are chiefly
located in New England, there being
no print mill in the South. The mill
at Avondale and other Southern mills
make print cloths, but these cloths
are sent to New England to be bleach
ed and printed. Il
The two sets of mills can and
should work in harmony. There is
room for both, and it will take a
strong effort on the part of both to
get the upper hand of foreign mills.
England alcne has twice as many
spindles- as there are in this country
bat this will assuredly be changed IL
the long run, and the spinning of the
American crop will be done at home
The crop however increases faster
than the home spindles, and it will be
years before we can drive out Of this
or that market the goods Of foreign
spinners. The task calls for the best
efforts of New England as we'll OF
Southern manufacturers. American
mills should pull together. The South
Is content to spin and to weave the
coarser goods, and New England has
a wide field in the making of the
finer forms into which cotton is put
nowadays.

Books About stage People.

publishers are always ready to print
books about the stage said the repre-
sentative of a well known publishing
house. "Autobiographies of prominent ac-
tors sell better than almost any class
of books. Naturally, the public has read
these volumes with deep interest, for
there is at present, both In this country
and in England, a widespread curiosity
regarding stage people and their doings,
fed very largely by the stage gossip pro-
vided by the newspapers.
Actors themselves also read these
books with eagerness. One well known
comedian, however, Mr.. W. ]. LeMoyne,
greatly deplores their publication. He de-
olares that the revelations are destroy
ing the illusion that the theatre used to
have for playgoers, and that, in the end,
the consequences must be harmful to
dramatic art"

Hanna for President.

Senator Mark Hanna has grown very
much in the public estimation in the past
six months, and l believe he will be the
Republican nominee in 1904" said well
known citizen who votes the Republican
ticket, but who is not known as poll
tician.
president Roosevelt is a high type of
man, but he is not a success as a presi-
dent. He will lose the following he has
now long before the convention meets,
and Hanna will probably be chosen stand
ard bearer on the first ballot
THE Senator's stand on the labor
question will make him popular with the
wage workers, and 1t would take strong
Democrat indeed to beat him. When
President Mckinley died, thought Han
ma would be politically dead, but l was
mistaken. He is much stronger today
than he was before Roosevelt became
President"
