Holiness in the Agricultural Depart
ment at Washington A gentleman
who keeps we'll posted on cotton mat
ters was talking yesterday about the
latest report from Washington anC
said:
\ Ridiculous Proposition.
"In Mr.. Secretary Wilson's officia
crop Reporter which has just come
from the Government printing presses
appears the following announcement
Contrary to the practice in
past years. a report on the con-
dition of the cotton crop will be
made on November 10. 1t Will
show the condition of the growing
crop on November 1, 1905"
IF nothing else had emanated from
this nest of Governmental incompe-
tents this is sufficient to make the en-
tire Department Observation-Disclosures as
the cotton crop is conoerned-in the
minds of any man of set of men who
know anything about it's cultivation
The idea of a report showing the con-
dition of the growing crop on Novem-
Der 1st and this too in the face of the
fact that frost has already been re-
ported from different points through
out the cotton belt, in face of the fact
too, that the Departments weekly
weather report two weeks ago showed
that over sixty per cent. of the cotton
had already been gathered. This
poor old simple granny evidently
thinks that picking out cotton is like
cutting turnip salad and as fast as
you pick it out other cotton grows in
the same boil.
who but a simpleton would care
anything about the condition of the
cotton plant itself on November st?
There is no such thing as growing
cotton crop Ion November 1st 1t is
grown long before then and three
fourths of it gathered.
Certainly this is the fact this season
when cool weather has already set in
and frost, the deadly enemy of the
cotton plant, has already been re-
ported from many places.
"Why not issue report showing the
condition of the growing corn crop.
much of which has not yet been har-
vested? One would be about as
reasonable and as eXcusable as the
other. Can it be that there are some
Hydes and Holmes still left in the
Department, who desire to make a
deal with some bear clique or bull
clique for some doctored November
figureS?'

A. G. S. ACQUIRES CAR
SHOPS AT GADSDEN
Will Be Operated at Present as Re-
pair Shops, But Finished Cars
May Be Turned Out Later.

Gadsden. June 7-(Special)- THE Ala
bama Great Southern Railroad company
has secured control of the old Elliott car
shops in this city from the receivers of
the Southern Car and Foundry company,
the deal having been finally closed today.
AS stated by your correspondent few
days ago. A. Griggs of Birmingham was
in the city last Friday for the purpose of
examining the property, and after going
over it he stated that he vas satisfied,
and that it was more than likely that his
road would soon have control of it and
place it in operation.
The deal has now been definitely closed,
the consideration being $4,000 and in a
few weeks a large force of men will be
put to work clearing up the debris which
has accumulated, getting rne machinery
in running order and the Tlant will be
placed in operation. 1t is the intention
of the new owners to operate the plant as
a repair shop, but later on it may turn
out finished cars. The very latest ma
chinery will be purchased and installed
and a large force of men employed. Dur
ing the palmy days of the Elliott Car
company there were employed some 300
men, but under the new management
some 500 men will be given employment
and the salaries will range from 81 to So
per day, with monthly pay roll Of
$4,000.
This plant was erected by Capt ]. M.
Elliott, Jr., and operated by him sue
cessfully for a number of years until he
finally sold it to the Southern Car and
Foundry company, after which 1t COM
menced to go down until the company
finally went itno the hands of a receiver.

Public Sentiment.

Public sentiment on the subject of
schools is decidedly good. 1t is the almost
uns nimous desire on the part of our adult
population that their children be given
better advantages and opportunities for
securing an education than those which
obtained when they themselves were chill
dren. Let the people but know Whit
they should do to help along the i'm
provement, and they stand ready to do
their part. If evidence were needed in
support of this statement it is amply fur
nlshed in those counties which have voted
upon the question of the 10 cent tax for
schools provided in the new constitution.
''To the public press of Alabama and to
the work directed by the department of
education here in this canital, Is due most
of the credit for this healthy public senti-
nent in favor Of better schools.
1.-THE unceasing efforts of our superin-
tendent of education were kept up until
tired nature rebelleo. and sent him to the

Spirited Rivalry for Flag.

The Abbott Rifles, Company c of the
Second regiment, the company designated
by Adjutant Brandon in his report after
the annual inspection as the best in the
state, is drilling twice a week perfecting
themselves in the tactics sd as to bring
back the flag for the best drilled company
when the regiment goes into camp in
Montgomery, July Il. The Montgomery
Greys, between which company and the
Abbott Rifles there is the warmest per-
sonal feelings of friendship and sociabil-
ity, is also drilling nightly in order to
capture the flag. 1t is said that the Greys
will back themselves for $500 as the Win
ners, and the Abbott Rifles will likely
take IN the wager
