which IS sought for its own sake only
nor do they know from experience now
beautiful and how lofty such friend

COMPANY MAY DISBAND
TROUBLE IN THE EToWAH
 RIFLES OF GADsDEN.
Privates Demand tLs Resignation of Every Officer from Captain Down to Fifth Corporal-Socialists
 Are Rotten-Egged.

Gadsden, Aug. e-(Special )-There is a sensation brewing in military circles in Gadsden which may end in the disband- ment of the Etowah Rifles.
 At meeting of the company, held q few nights ago, the privates asked for the resignation of every officer from cap. tain down to fifth corporal. Captain Will A, Echols, Lieutenants Charles Echols and R. K. Foster at once handed in their resignations, but it is not known what Lieutenant Will P. Gwin. will do. The nature of tho trouble has not leaked out except that the men Became dissatisfied while at the recent encampment and came home and demanded the resignation of the officers. One private says that it Is their intention to change the command from one end to the other, while another says that the company showed up bad in every respect ard that the membership should te changed and not the officers.
 Captain Echols has been in wTetched health for a number of years and it has been next to impossible for him to de- vote much attention to the company. He is popular with the boys. and 1t is known that their action is not thrust at him. The Rifles, as company, has not been very efficient since the Spanish-American war, and few believe that the company would pass muster under the recent tn- speetion by the United States officer, and when they were comp)imented it was q great surprise to the people. What wili be the final outcome is not known.
