The Seventh Alabama Regiment enlist
ed for twelve months only in the Confed-
crate service, and was one of the few
commands which at the expiration of the
time failed to reorganize and re-enlist for
the war. 1t was organized at Pensacola
early in the spring of 1861, with Sterling
A. NJ. Wood, Colonel; John G. Coltart
Lieutenant Colonel, and Albert A. Rus
sell, Major. The officers Of the line were
OF high character while the nen repre-
scented some of the best families of tho
State, ana many of them noted for cul-
ture and scholarship. And paradoxical
as 1t may seem, in the high character Of
the men and officers may be found the
chief reason for not reorganizing as
command at the end of the twelve
months service. For a majority of the
commissioned officers believed themselves
competent for higher commands, as in
deed many of them were, while numbers
of the men were longing for rank higher
than that Of private. With such aspiring
sentiments prevailing with rank and file,
It Is not surprising that the command
failed to reorganize and disbanded
promptly at the end of the period of its
enlistment.
And. yet, the Seventh Alabama, in its
twelve months service, was not without
an interesting history. 1t was never in
general engagement, but its operations,
Notwithstanding, were varied and event
full. From early spring to middle autumn
1t was encamped near Pensacola on the
sand planes around Barancas. Here the
regiment was drilled and disciplined, and
in common with all raw troops going into
camps, suffered It's share with measles,
and camp fever, not to mention the an
noyance from the flea, that little pest so
abundantly prevalent in that locality.
Only one call to arms during the time
WAS made ON the regiment. and that was
on the occasion of the night attack on
Santa Rosa Island, having for its purpose

From the Chicago Tribune.
Theodore Roosevelt will soon receive
the queerest invitation card ever sent to
a President of the United States
1t requests the pleasure of his pres
ence at the annual Fiesta de los Flores,
to be held in Los Angeles in May
Two months ago the stationery upon
which this invitation was written was
believing across the cattle ranges OF
Southern California with no intention Of
sacridcing itself for White House etiq7
uette. In short, the invitation is written
on the tanned hide of a young gentle
man COW.
1t is the unique idea of the most unique
political club in the United States
Teddy's Terrors.
AS a Western ranchman, by brevet, the
President will doubtless appreciate 1t as
an extraordinary example of tanning For
two months one of the leading taxiderm-
lists of the West has been at work on
it.
The hide is reddish brown in color and
has been worked until it is as sort as
the check of a girl. The calf's head has
been retained on the hide and by the
cunning of the taxidermist the glass eyes
look as gentle and soft as fawn's. Near
the shoulders the hair has been scraped
away, leaving fine even parchment for
the wording of the invitation.
1t is in the characteristic style of the
busters:

"TEDDY'S TERRORS.
For Theodore Roosevelt, the Presi-
dent, Washington. d. c."
On the flank side of the hide are the
three brands used on the Roosevelt stock
on Mr. Roosevelt's cattle ranches in the
Northwest-the triangle, the elk horn
and the maltese cross.
The Terrors had to appeal to the Pres
ident himself to find out his cattle
brands. The Terrors' request for the
brands was forwarded through Senator
Perkins. and the President sat down one
day and searched of the three brands
himself. with the little note shown in
the above picture, and 1t is now placed
among the treasured archives of the
Terrors.

R. E. MORRISON AT wINsL0W.
Large Audience Creets the Republican Cam didate for Delegate
 to Congress.

The campaign in Winslow was opened last Monday night by the republicans with grand mass meeting at the opera house, Robert E. Morrison, the republi- can candidate for delegate to congress, being the chief speaker of the evening. During the after noon the. Winslow brass band drove through the streets render ing patriotic airs and arousing much interest in the meeting, and when the time arrived for the meeting to be called to order the spacious opera house was well filled with an enthusiastic gathering. ~
 The appearance of Mir. Morri- son on the stage. escorted by the committee of arrangements, was the signal for a general outburst of applause. Attorney F. w. Nelson was chairman and first announced a short program of vocal and instrumental music by home talent, following which he introduced T. F. Moran, the re- publican candidate for district attorney as the first speaker. Mir. Moran, in brief speech, eulogized Mir. Morrison's record in Arizona's politics and predict ed for him an overwhelming victory when the votes were counted on the 4th of November : In introducing Mir. Morrison, Attorney Nelson gave a history of his career in Arizona politics for the past twenty years, show ing his rapid rise from his first appearance as cow-puncher in Apache county to his present eminent position as leader of his party in this territory. As Mir. Morrison stepped to the front of the stage he was greeted with prolonged applause, and ire quently during his speech of over an hour he was interrupted in a similar manner.
 He said that in the fall of 1886 in Winslow he mad received his baptism into Arizona politics and it gave him great pleasure to be able to appear in his old home county and greet his old friends so early in the campaign. He would sooner carry by a majority, either large or small, the counties of Apache and Maya jo than any other county in the territory,
 Mir. Morrison then launched into the realm of national poli- tics and reviewed the history of the republican party, relating how the party; under the leader ship of the great Lincoln, took hold of the helm of the ship of state in the dark days proceeding the Civil War, finding a bank rupt treasury and a disrupted country. For over forty years, save the time when Cleveland occupied the presidential chair, the country had been under the control of the republican party, and during that time the country had been reunited with stronger bonds than ever, the national credit had been restored, Ameri. can industries and labor had

 And there shall be elected in each county of the::Territory, one Probate Judge, one District At- torney, one Sheriff, one Treasurer, one Recorder, one Surveyor, two members of The Board of Super visors. In the several justices precincts of each county, one Jus tice of the Peace and one Con- stable shall be elected in each pre- cinct; but in such precincts hav- ing a population offs, ,OOO or over, two Justices of the Peace and two Constables shall be elected. There shall also be elected in each county of the first class, one County School Superintendent.

y citizens abroad had been made sacred, SO that now an American in trouble in Mexico or South need no longer appeal to Great Britain, Germany or France, but finds abundant pro- tection in the government at Washington.
 The labor question has been intejected into this campaign, and in that regard the speaker wished to say that the republi- can party believed that neither capital or labor should work to the detriment of this territory. He believed ,emphatically in the right of laboring men to orga- nize to protect and advance their interests. The republican party was entitled to much considera- tion from the working man, for his interests were fully protected by it's policy. As an example, under the Wilson bill the sheep and cattle industries in this terri tory were ruined. Sheep from Australia and cattle from Mexi- co entered eastern markets at prices which home product could not meet. Now all this is changed. The Dingley bill has brought about different condi- tions so that sheep and cattle are regarded as splendid commod- ities in Arizona.
 The democratic platform made rosy promises to everyone, espe- cially the laboring man, but could point to nothing nits past record as guarantee that it would carry them out. With a tremendous democratic majori- ty in the last legislature;t not, a bill beneficial to labor had been allowed to pass. It had, either been strangled in the committee or had met open defeat on the floor of the house. The republi- can party says the interest of every man will be protected, whether capitalist or laborer. The democrats are raising a howl about tax exemption. but every statute permitting such exemption has been passed by a democratic legislature. Capital is very timid and should be treated honorably and respect ably.
 With Col. Wilson, the speaker said he was on terms of warm friendship, but still he feels it to be his duty to try to prevent the colonel's election. He spoke ot his meeting with an old gentle man at Flagstaff who, after sig ing him up thoroughly from head to foot, referred to the bibl. cal story of David and. Goliath, and hoped that in this campaign the republican David would slay the democratic Goliath.
 With regard to statehood Mir. Morrison believed that both he and Col. Wilson were seeking an empty bubble, as he was conf. dent that before the end ot next January Arizona would be crowned with statehood and
 her citizens admitted to the full
 privileges of this great republic
 It will be through a republican congress and republican president
 that this honor will be given tc

Mining FIuOrspar.

1t will be noticed by reference to the
report OF the Illinois Central railroad
that our shipments of fluor spar reached
the maximum tonnage in 1901. An in
crease of some ten million pounds over
the year 1900 was made. The shipments
so far this year will increase rather than
diminish this tonnage. 1t will be well
for the smaller producers of huor spar
to hold their product for fair market
value. They should remember that the
history of huor spar veins as in most
other veins of mineral is a succession of
Ian places as well as fat ones. A dis
posal of all in sight at barely the cost of
production leaves nothing for future de
Of the property and nothing
for the men while driving through a
possible pinch in the vein.
