SCHOOL BOOKS.

Montevallo Sentinel: The Alabama trust out of the state-bag and baggage
 
 Jasper Mountain Eagle: Will the school book trust or the children of Alabama win? This is a question for the present legislature to answer.
 Marion County News: The illteraey of Alabama should be a strong reason for the legislature to use it's best efforts to have more schools and better schools.
 
 Eufaula Times: Alabama is the first state alphabetically but it is Omega in the way of education. Lets get at the root of the evil and push 1t forward to the place it properly belongs.
 Demopolls Dispatch: There should be uniform text books used In every school in the state, and if this legislature passes a law so declaring, we shall have some hope for democracy in Alabama, for 1t will shut out one of the most pernicious of monopoles-the school book trust
 Goodwater Democrat: Among the first bills introduced in the house of the legis- lature was one for uniform text books for the state. No one questions the great saving of money to the school patrons of the state nor the amount of annoyance that teachers, pupils and parents will be relieved of but the question Is whether patriotism or book corporations shall pre- dominate. In other words will the major ity of legislators sell out to the corpora tions or will they serve their constituents.

DELAWARE INDIANS
ABOUT TO FILE CHARGES

r c. Adams and George S. Chase, at
torneys for the Delaware Indians, were
at the Interior Department this morn
ing looking after the interests of the
Delawares in the suit which they have
now before the Supreme Court for the
recovery OF $4,000 acres of land in the
Cherokee Nation.
Interest in the visit OF the two at
torneys this morning was added to by
their statement that they would file
formal charges with the Secretary of
the Interior against the Dawes Commits
sion. The principal charge against
the commission WILDE neglect Of duty.
The members of the Dawes Commits

in the petition before the Court of
Claims with having become largely In
terested in companies formed for the
purpose OF dealing in Indian lands and
leases.
Practically the same allegations
against the commission are expected to
be fled with the Secretary Of the In

CONGRESS MAY ABOLISH
A PRESENT ARMY BOARD
Lack of Harmony Al eyed Between
Conflicting Bureaus.

General staff officers are devoting
much time to the consideration of the
Army Board Of Ordnance and Fortifea-
ton, over which Lieutenant General
Miles presided before his retirement.
Congress may be asked to abolish this
board.
The board was created by a special
act of Congress about thirteen years
ago, when the question of providing
proper defenses for the coast of the
United States was seriously taken up
by Congress. 1t consisted OF the gen.
eral commanding the army, he chief
of engineers, the chief of ordnance, sew
eral prominent officers of the artillery
and ordnance corps, and one civilian APP
pointed by the Secretary OF War. II was
empowered by Congress at the time of
its creation to select types Of guns for
the defense of the coast. For many
years the board had charge of the sea-
coast defenses, as far as selecting types
of ordnance was concerned, but within
the last three or four years it has done
little in this regard
Army officers claim that lack
of harmonious work between the
Board Of Ordnance and Forti-
tiication and the Ordnance De-
partment, which has charge of supply
ing the army with ordnance materials,
has not been for the good OF the ser
vice. and has, in many instances, kept
the United States back several years In
equipping it's Notifications with the
most i7radern engines of war. When
Lieut.. Gen. s. B. NJ. Young became chief
of STAFF. with the privilege Of becoming
in his discretion president Of the Board
OF Ordnance and Fortihcation, he del
egated the duties of that position to
Gen George 1. Gillespie, chief Of en-
gineers.

EXERCISES IN THEATER
IF RAIN STOPS UNWILLING

The Sherman monument unwilling
commission today accepted the offer Of
p. b. Chase to make use, in case of
rain, of the New Grand for the holding
of the unwilling exercises on October Is.
Practically the only detail which has
caused the commission any concern in
planning for the exercises has been the
fear that everything might be spoiled by
Indictment weather. Much to the graft
flcation OF the commission, Mr.. Chase
has rendered the use OF his theater, en-
tirely free OF charge, for use IL they
desire. On account OF the matinee per-
Torrance. the time for beginning the
exercises will be 4:30 o'clock, In case
OF rain, Instead of 2:30 otherwise.
