Rumors About Steel Trust.

.The statement that MT. Dean of New York, who left Birmingham Monday, has options on several million dollars worth of coal and Iron lands in this district and that he Is representative of the United States Steel corporation, is not given much credence among local corporation men," said prominent citizen.
 '.It is stated that a site has been se- lected about eight miles north of Bir- mingham on which a gigantic steel plant will be erected. This site is said to be along tho old Huntsville road.
 Men familiar with the operations of big corporations are inclined to think that if the United States Steel corpora tion wanted to come into this district 1t would pursue a different method alto gether and would make an effort to ac- ouire Aontrol of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company and other corpo- rations which are already thoroughly es- tablished and which own the most valu- able coal and ore lands.
 "That MT. Dean secured options on a large amount of property while in the city seems, however, to be generally be- lleved. It is not known definitely whom ha represents.

AIabama's Constitution Unscratched.

The Supreme court unanimously de- cided that J. " Giles had no standing in court-that he had no case. The three dissenting judges agreed with the court itself that the case should be dismissed, putting the dismissal, how ever, upon the ground that s2O00 was not involved in the case.
 Justice Holmes, the son of father distinguished in other walks of life, de- llvered the opinion of the court, and with some of his fathers keen insight he saw at once that it was absurd in Giles to claim the right to register un- der a constitution which he declared fraudulent and unconstitutional. The court virtually said he was mistaken as to the one or the other. If Ala bama's constitution is unconstitutional, then no one should claim the right to register under 1t, and 1T he claims the right to register under it, he admits it's constitutionality The court, however, went into the merits of the case, de- ciding it was so political 1t should be referred to the political branch of the governmental the legislature of Ala bama, or to congress, or to both Jus tice Holmes did not specify.
 The decision is, however, as good as final, for it says in the plainest of terms that political wrongs should be redressed by the political power, and that bills of equity were not designed for the use of the politically inclined who think they are nursing grievances or injuries. All such are told by the great court that they should take an appeal to the electorate, which is the source of all political power Looking at the decision as we will, it must be considered as an end of all efforts to abolish the suffrage clause of the Ala bama constitution by the Supreme court route.
