but they compel the railroads to pay
them for the use of their cars various
rates, which amount, of course, to re-
bates, as the net result affords to the
large shippers lower cost of trans
portation than is obtained by their
smaller competitors.
The railroads will gladly accept any
regulation which will effectually pre-
vent all the forms of discrimin alton
which curtail their profits, but they
will oppose to the bitter end any leg
islation which will more completely
establish the right of the government
to regulate and supervise their bnsi-
ness. It is the desire of the president
that congress shall frame a law which
will remedy all these evils and estab-
fish, for all time, the rights of the
people, as exercised by their represent
alive, the government, over the ironed
public highways.

 But to deal with my attack or tu-
 berculosis in detail. As soon as came
 to a realization of the fact that had
 suffered from a series of hemmorrages
 was a victim of tuberculosis. My
 Birmingham physician never told me
 so. He must have known. but he
 doubtless. preferred to adopt the tac-
 tics which in my Judgment LOO many doctors employ-the policy of not
 frankly and promptly advising the tubercu1ar victim at the very begin
 ming of his trouble the exact na- alarming him.
 Right here I desire to express my
 unqualified disapproval of this policy
 rapidly disappearing. am firm iI the
 conviction that if is the sacred duty of the doctor to promptly inform a
 consumptiye at the outset of his trouo-
 le and seek at once to impress upon
 him the importance of early ard
 strenuous action on his part to abate
 the disease. regard every knoYl-
 a prerequisite to a winning fight. pro-
 vided the victim will accept the state
 ment of the physician as eact and
 make up his own mind to spare no
 effort on his own part to assist nature fin throwing off the infection. Of
 course, right here many doctors en-
 counter a serious difficulty. which lies
 fin the fact that very many consump- lives flatly refuse to believe that they
 have tuberculosis. This refusal springs out of the old fiction that to accept the idea that you have con sumption is tantamonnt to having your death warrant read to you. This should not and will not be the case. provided the patient will. upon ieceiv- | ing first knowledge of his actual con- dition, accept it as the truth and sci about to do battle with the disease according to modern common sense methods, accepting the situation as he ! finds it and making the best of 1t. al- | ways bringing to bear every tota of will power at his command.
 My own experience has convtn SSd me that nature never intended that man should be otherwise than healthy | In other words I firmly adhere to the | theory that 1t is unnatural to have | consumption or any other disease. Eut l after having contracted disease the | entire tendency of nature In my Cptn- | ion is to expel it from the body. This | theory being accepted, the part which | the physician and the patient himself | must play is to assist nature In ac- | complishing the work of expulsion l When during my illness I grasp9d | this theory and determined to do my | part in aiding nature l found that my | progress towards recovery WaS mOst | satisfactory and rapid. To sum UT Il this point, believe that early accept | ance of the truth that one is a victim | of tuberculosis and a strong anu tin | shaken determination to whip thu l fight, followed by the immediate in | auguration of unflagging sffo-t tG | that end, about seyenty-fiye per cen

 Gadsden. April 1S-(SpeciaI. )-If the Clty Council grants the franchise, Gadsden will have a gas plant and a steam heating plant. Judge James A. Bllbro, who few weeks ago asked the city council for a franchise for the erection Of gas plant. has amended his original petition and asks for the granting of the additional right to Iay pipes for steam heating plant. The capitalists behind the movement are c. B, Forman, T. H, Stephens and J. D. Hammonds and they have an engineer now on the ground and are ready to commence the survey just as soon as the council grants them the franchise The steam heating plant will4be for the purpose of supplying heat for resi- dences and business houses.
 Chancellor W. W. Whitesides has handed down a decision at Guntersville which will affect the entire State as far as the school law is concerned. There has been a conflict between the school boards and the district trustees in the matter of employing teachers and To- eating schools. John A. Lusk filed pc tition in chancery at Guntersville ask ing that the district trustees of that county be allowed full control Judge J. A. Bilbro filed an answer to the petition for the parties interested in which he contended that the county board of ed ucation was supreme. The chancellor very promptly dismissed MT. Lusk's pe- tition for want of equity. Mir. Lusk will appeal the case to the Supreme Court. but the decision of the chancellor will rule until the Supreme Court convenes.
 The steamer Alabama left her Broud Street wharf Monday at noon with a splendid cargo and will continue up the river until the steamer Wagnon Is met. when cargoes will be transferred and also pilots, the Alabama returning to Gadsden in time to take the Elks down the river to the locks Thursday on an excursion.
