HOUSE NIGHT SESSION.
Discovered That There Was Tie Vote on Negro School B.1l-

For the night session the House con- vened at 8 o'clock. The roll call showed that there were 54 members present, one more than a quorum.
 A number of other members, however came in later. The House then went to work at it's methodical task
 The speaker said that the reading clerk had discovered that he had made a mis- take in recording the vote on the bill relative to the State Normal School talk en at the afternoon session. It was de- sired to correct this error he said, and for that purpose a reconsideration of the bill would be moved at to-day's session for the correction of the error. It was found that the vote had been 70 to 40

CAPTAIN ROBSON APPEALS FOR
 A GREATER AMERICAN NAVY

doctrine and protect the Philippines a greater and more powerful navy must be built.
 From business standpoint 1t was shown how our interest lay in opening the door to the Orient and in furnishing our cotton to China, which when pros- porous would take ten suits of our cotton cloth to each person. The canal 70 ably and so long contended for by Senator Morgan would make otir country great and prosperous, but 1t would take great navy to protect and hold it and keep an open door for all time.
 Result of Great Navy.
 Captain Hobson pictured what a great navy was and what 1t ought to be and said that when America had such navy and becomes all powerful. wars will cease and we will have served her mighty mis- sion in the world. He would spenu a bill. lion and a half of dollars in the next thir- teen years in building new ships and from fifty to hundred millions each year thereafter and this would not add one tenth of one per cent. to the taxation. The moment America says she will take first place, she will have 1t and the others will begin at once to compete for the sec ond place. We must spend millions for war ships or billions for wars, and the latter was always more costly.
 It had been said that there was great danger in his plan. he said.
 Well. let there be danger" he declared there is danger in all undertakings and if you expect to get out of all danger you had better get of of the earth"
 The conclusion was a beautiful tribute to America. He said to be an American Is greater than an Emperor. He haG rather have been born an American thar to have been born a crown prince of any other nation on earth. He expected to see at no distant day. America the mistress of the seas.
 When Captain Hobson finished his lee ture. ladies and gentlemen gathered around. shook his hand and expressed sympathy with his opinions and views on great navy.
 He does not talk of his future plans. bu, it is said he has not yet concluded his tour of the Sixth district and that wher he does he will probably announce him. self candidate for Congress from that district.

was under the direct control of the peo. pie of Alabama. He paid compliment to the spirit and work of the State Normal School at Montgomery.
 MT. Goldsmith said that the bill was fraudulent on it's face, as the body of the bill differed from its title. He was not opposed to the negro in his place and his | place was in the corn and cotton fields, There was no race problem now but there would be. he said, when the results of in- dustrial education for the negro had been | achieved.
 Arnold Championed Bill. MT. Arnold said that 1t was the bounden | duty of the State to assist the negro It
 was nothing but right for the State to give some encouragement to the negro. The appropriation. he said. would be paid | out of the money which would be paid to the negro schools. This could not be writ. ten in the bill but 1t could be paid out in a pursuance of a policy. Werner and Callahan Speak, MT. Werner of Tuscaloosa said that the people of Alabama owed the negroes | something and 1t ought to be paid. It was true. he said, that the negro did not pay taxes but 1t was equally true that l there was not a man on the floor to whom the negro had not paid tribute in dollars:
 had not profited by the sweat of the ne- gro's brow.
 | MT. Callahan of Morgan said that this
 was not the time to rebuke the President.
 He wanted the President rebuked Lut he
 wanted him rebuked at the polls. The
 negro could not be elevated by mistreat-
 ment. If the negro is strangled out he
 said 1t would not be long before the poor
 white man would be strangied. I T1aA Aa t..Iz

Opposition to Text-Book Law.


 The new. text book law has created a great deal of opposition in Birmingham during the last two days. since the public schools opened. There is strongest objection to the clause relating to the exchange of books and to that which re- quires the stamp of the State. Mayor Drennen. who has received many com plaints, requested Chairman A. O. Lane, of the Board of Education, to call a meeting of the board to take the matter up today. but Mir.
