ENSLEY RECEIVES
 NEW FIRE WAGON
HOSE OUTFIT ARRIVES AND IS THE CENTER OF ATTRACTION. ONE OF THE REsT-BuILT WAGONS IN THE SOUTH.

Ensley. October 1s.-(special.)-T new hose wagon that the city has purchased for the fire department arrived in Bir- mingham this morning over the Southern from Atlanta and was unloaded immedi- ately and brought out to Ensley, where 1t as the center of attractions this after noon.
 The new wagon is a thing of beauty and is one of the largest and best put up wagons in the south. It was manufactur- ed by John M. Smith & Co. of Atlanta, by special order of Chief Hollingsworth, who went to Atlanta several times to superin- tend the various special features in its makeup.
 The bed of the body Is nine feet long and fourteen inches deep. The wagon $ equipped with a hat and coat rack, side racks for ladders, two standard Badger fire extinguishers and carries 1900 feet of hose.
 This is the second wagon that has been bought for the department in the last three months, the two having been made as a special order at cost of $l200 The other wagon is small one and only carries 800 feet of hose and is used in case of emergency. The department has re- gently moved into its new quarters in the city hall, which are more convenient and commodious than the old ones. The guar ters have been fitted up with all the late eonveniences and are in every way up to date
 The Hon. William B. Craig, formerly of Selma, has removed to Ensley. He arrived in the city this morning and at once took charge of the law office of the firm of Stallings, Baston, NeSmith and Craig. Mir. Craig served as member of the upper house in the late legislature and made a splendid record as a wise and conservative legislator. The people of the Steel City welcome Senator Craig to their midst.

 These stables were the largest in north ern Alabama, having stable room for over 200 head of stock, and the same number of vehicles. MT, Donahoo Is well known in Atlanta and St. Louis, where he is a frequent buyer at the stock yards. The loss is about $25,O0O with $SOO0 insurance.

Erroneous Impression Prevailed
 to the Contrary
APPROVED A WEEK AGO
New Supreme Court Judges Are Not to Be Appointed, as Some Think, But Are to Be Elected
 By the People.

Montgomery, October 13.-(Special)-An erroneous print in several newspapers, stating that Governor Jelks had not signed the Jefferson FallSner soldiers home bill, has caused much unnecessary anxiety on the part of many of the friends of the measure throughout the state.
 As matter of fact the measure was approved week ago. and is now a law. It carries an appropriation of $25,OoO for completing the buildings at the home, be- sides per capita annuity of $125 for the support of the inmates of the home up to 100 in number
 This bill was the especial charge of Col. J. M. Falkner, for whom the home is named, and it's passage caused him great joy. During the past year Colonel Falkner has spent practically all of the time that he could spare from his duties in the city in personally supervising the construction work at the home, and he has certainly worked wonders with no funds beyond voluntary gifts. There are some eight cottages already completed, at cost each of from S1SOO to 5000. These cottages are grouped around the main building, known as the memorial log building This main building is beautifully designed for offices, library and chapel. There is also a special room set aside for the Daughters" The value of the property at present is about S20,000, which now becomes the property of the state. With the expenditure of the additional fund of $25,000 the home will become an ideal spot for the old veterans to pass their last days. The home is situated about three-quarters of a mile from the little station-Mountain Creek, in Chiffon county. Very soon the Louisville and Nashville railroad will build neat depot in keeping with the states improvements, and the road lover the hilr' to the home will be graded and graveled.
 Governor Does Not Appoint.
 There is an erroneous idea in the minds of many lawyers of the state that the bill increasing the membership of the su- preme court from five to seven becomes effective at once, necessitating the ap- pointment by the governor of the extra judges.
 As originally drawn. the bill contain ed this provision, but the house amended it so as to make it effective after the next general election. This relieves the governor rom the appOlnttVe duty, much to his delight With the long string of candidates which will probably seek the nominations in the primaries next year, it can be readily seen how difficult would have been the appointive duty Brickens Good Record. | Circuit Judge Charles R. Bricken of the | Second circuit was in Montgomery today, returning from a session of court at BreWtOn Major Bricken had a hard week of work, trying twenty-nine cases | before the jury. He came out with the perfect record of twenty-nine verdicts of guilty.

TWO OF A KIND

Senator Till man is man who does
not fear to call spade spade. He
is bluff and gruff, but c;nccre and
honest withal. He delivered ter
rible philippe against AttOrney-Gen-
eral Knox this week, for his inactiOn
as to the coal combine and indiffer-
ence to the fact that thousands of
people are sick and dying. and dead.
because of the artiicially and GRIM
inally created scarcity Of coal. in
which he said: II want to say that
Knox is the criminal whom l am in
dieting, the man blamable primarily
or secondarily for all this misery and
suffering because he has failed to do
his duty"
Tillman then paid his respects to
Griggs, who was Knox predecessor,
showing that they were two Of
kind" 1t will be remembered that
Griggs left the Attorney-Generars Of
/. fee to enter the private service of
the trusts, while Mr.. Knox gave up a
law practice-almost exclusively with
the trusts, and said to be paying him
half million dollars year-Osten-
sibly to enter the Government service
at $4,000 a year; but since his occu-
pancy of the Office he has acted as
if he were still the paid advocate
of the monopolies he formerly repre-
scented, as a private citizen, in a pro-
fessional way This is the way Till
man called attention to the fact and
to the evident conspiracy existing be-
tween the precious pair:
"Griggs has appeared often for
these monopolies in efforts on the
part of the States and on the part of
the national Government to bring
these monopOlies and these combina-
lions and trusts to book. 1t is the
business of lawyer, it will be said.
Yes, it is his business as lawyer,
but for the hoac- cs the profession
and l Go hInor it, Notwithstanding
the number OF shysetrs and scOun-
drels who are in it and who disgrace
it will say that have never known
in all my reading another instance
in which an ex-oficer of the Govern
ment was so braZen, had so much
impudence and so little regard fol
the decencies and proprieties of life
as to appear in case against his
successor and against the very Gov.
eminent which he had served or pre-
tended to serve.
And no doubt when Mr.. Griggs
who graduated into the AttOrneyGen
erals office from the position as attOr
ney of the combined coal railroads
as l am informed. this very trus
which is causing all this misery, wa
comforted by Mr.. Knox who gradr
ated into his own Office after expert
ence with corporations all his life
and was once the attorney for tn
Carnegie Company-no doubt wha
may have lead him to determine whe
Their the antitrust law was mere lar
guage or not, or whether it had any
thing of force or power to RESTRAIN
anything and punish-they did nc
: shift but undoubtedly they winked q
each other, and the understandin

me from doing all the harm you can

How it Looks
Abroad

In upholding the Kansas law proyid-
ing that eight hours shall constitute a
day's work for persons employed by or
on behalf of the State or any county or
city, the Supreme Court OF the United
States laid down the broad principle that
the legislative body OF State has right
to fix the conditions Of labor on any pub
lie work within its Jurisdiction. The
only other decision of the highest ju-
dicial tribunal 10 the country on the
eight-hour question was rendered when
il sustained the law OF Utah fixing an
eight-hour day for miners employed un-
derground. These two decision estab.
lish the right Of the Legislature to pre-
scribe conditions of employment on both
public and private work, and they are
Of great Importance to all students ol

NEW FREIGHT
TERMINAL.
Terrace. New, to
be Wiped off
the Flap.

The Southern Pacific Company will at
once begin the construction OF new
freight division terminal between Akbar
and Montello to be used in connection
with the Lucin cutoff. This terminal
will take the place Of Terrace, which
means that the latter place, 80 far as the
railroad is concerned, will be virtually
wiped off the map.
The contract for the grading work has
been let to Corey Brothers Construction
Company and will aggregate 100000
cubic yards OF fill. The terminal will be
first class, modern yard, up to date in
every particular, and will be completed
with all possible haste. The distance
from Ogden to the new terminal via
the Salt Lake route will be 100 miles.
1t has repeatedly been stated that the
rails aud ties on the old road would be
removed as soon as practicable. Such
statements are without the slightest
foundation in fact. The old road will
remain undisturbed and nothing will be
received.
