 On account of several stipulations in the constitution of the Association the state University at Tuscaloosa refused to unite with the organization. but 1t is thought that the University will be represented at the annual business meeting of the Asso- citation today and 1t Is probable that arrangements will be made by which that institution will enter the Association.

INFORMANT POINT RAISED AGAINST BUSINESS HOUSES.
New Revenue Code May Cost LeaI Merchants Considerable Money Unless Board of Revenue
 Fails to Act.

The new Revenue Code of Alabama has. 1t has been recently discovered, an i'm portant and unexpected bearing upon most of the business firms of Montgom- cry.
 Firms which have heretofore paid only city and State licenses will be required to pay in S dition a county lcenses esA ,
 These firms have for the past ten years license by a clause of the city charter. This clause was repealed by the new Rev enue Code, so Auditor Soweli has ruled, and by It's repeal the burden of the addi- tional license was placed upon the busi- ness men of Montgomery
 Under the Auditors construction all firms which pay q State license will have
 The merchants of Montgomery have en- loved d privilege conferred by the city charter adopted by the Legislature or fS92-93 The charter contained a clause ex- empting most of the city business firms from the payment of county licenses when a city license was paid. The exemption did not extend to all lines of trade, cer- tain businesses being named in the Code iorlty of the businesses of Montgomery, however, did not have to pay county licenses because of the city charter.
 The Revenue Code passed by the pres ent Legislature contained secton WHICH
 "Ail laws, or parts of laws. special. To- cal Of general. Inconsistent with the Pno- visions of this act are hereby repealed
 AIditor SoweII was asked for ruling upon the question as to whether the license clause in the city charter was re re peaied, He held that the language or tne o osvenua Code was clear and explicit, and that 1t repealed the conflicting clause m the city charter. ,, . Au

The Code authorizes the Board of Revenue to charge oV per cent of the State licenses as county license. The assessing of a county license is left discretionary with the Board.
 The Board of Revenue has, however, es. tablished the precedent of charging all the licenses to which the county is en. titled. Last year the Board assessed all county licenses as far as 1t could legally do so.

"Populism" in Germany.

The German government has built at a cost of nearly $2.500000 thirty-six 'korn- halls or great elevator granaries in va Tious parts of the empire. These buiId- ings are fitted with modern machinery for cleaning. and treating the grain, and 1t is stated that they are intended to render Small farmers independent of the fiuctua- tions of the market. Advances are made upon the grain stored at low interest rates, so that the farmers need not be in a hurry to sell.
 This is something like what the Kansas Populists some years ago wished our o@yl government to undertake in the West. The German government is hardly Populistic; ''agrarian" is better descriptive of It's present political attitude.

Since science discovered that dandruff is a germ disease there has been only one preparation put on the market that will actually destroy the dandruff germ, and that is Newbro's Herpicide.
