The death of Theodore Thomas
was a distinct loss to the musical

improvements at waterwOrks

The City Council is considering
the advisability of erecting a coal
chute at the water works. Under
present conditions all coal has
to be unloaded by hand, and it
costs from 81 so to $500 to I'M
load each car and requires a day
to complete the work, while with
chute or elevated track the
work could be done in few min
utes without any cost whatever
A com mittee has been appointed
to confer with Superintendent
j. j. Cotter, Of the Southern
Railway, regarding the cost of
the structure. and if the requir-
ed expenditure is not too great it
will be built.
Another i'm provement at the
waterworks which is being con
sidered by the council is the
purchase OF a new litter. The
consumption of water has grown
at shch rapid rate during the
past year that the capacity of the
filter now in use is totally made
quate to the demands made upon
it. The water com mittee has
been requested to enter into cor
respondence with several differ
ent concerns that manufacture
filters. and the purchase WI
probably be made next spring
when the unusually heavy con
sumption of water which that
season always brings com

Every cloud has its silver lin
ing and this is true Of the cloud
of depression and gloom which
mas settled over the South as a
result of the decline in the price
of cotton. It means a solution of
the labor problem. Already its
effect is being felt and the
troubles which have afflicted this
section are in a measure being
mitigated. Indeed, there are
those who do not conceal their
satisfaction with the prospect.
They claim that the scarcity of
labor involved a greater hard
ship to the South than that
caused by financial depression
and that their lands were almost
yalueless without labor to cult
vate them. Already the effect
Of the slump is being realized.
Labor is becoming more reason
able in its demands and more
satisfactory conditions are ensu-
ing. Everything follows cotton
in this section and the scale of
wages in industrial plants and
on the farms is being adjusted to
the new conditions involved in
the present crisis.

THE DOODLE CASES,

The indications are that it will
be many months before all of the
legislative bribery cases which
are now on the docket in the
Pulaski Circuit Court are disposed
Of. AT present there is only one
case set for trial in the Pulaski
Circuit Court, and there is little
probability that that will be tried
on the date set. This is the case
of Senator A. T. Gross of Craw-
ford county, who is under indict-
ment on charges of perjury and
soliciting a bribe. These two
cases were set for trial next
Thursday, but so far as known
no preparations have been made
for the trial, and it is generally
understood that the case will be
continued.
The above is from the Little
Rock Gazette. The delay in the
alleged Doodle prosecutions, and
the fact that the investigation
seems to have been dropped en-.
tirely is indicating that there is
no sincerity in the reform move
ment. The whole business, al
this distance, seems to be COM
plete, unadulterated farce.

having lived fifteen months with

The United Daughters of:the

AS a rule very large families

At st. Louis W. P. Jennings

The Capital City Guards of
Montgomery, the only negro
militia company in the state of
Alabama, was mustered out of

girl at New York, accepting a

without the slightest injury.

WHAT ROGERS IS SHOWING,

"Bob" Rogers, in his speeches
over the state, is giving the vo-
ters something to think about
and is sighting the people to
few things.
He is showing that the railroad
tax compromise, effected by Gov
Davis and Senator Clarke, was
an iniq uitous settlement, in
which the state lost thousands OF
dollars. The fee received by
Senator Clarke in this settlement,
thirty thousand dollars, as Rog-
ers says, represents six years
salary as United States Senator,
ten years salary as governor,
twelve years salary as attorney
general, and about fourteen
years salary for the other state
officers.
He is showing that Gov. Davis
vetoed bill passed by the legis-
lature giving him an assistant in
the attorney generals office,
while in the governors office the
governors daughter draws 500
a month, besides his private Sec
retary, who draws S125 every
month.
He is showing that he is en-
forcing the antitrust act, and has
placed in the state treasury al
ready several thousand dollars as
penalties from trust companies.
And he is still after them.
He is showing that he is not
the candidate of, the ''peniten-
tiary gang" as charged by Gov
ernor Davis, and is showing fur
ther that the governor has had
more transactions with that outfit
than he has.
He is showing that the taxes
are unequally paid. Equaliza-
ton of taxes is his hobby, if he
has a hobby.
He is showing friendship for
the charitable institutions of the
state.
He is showing a warm heart
for the ex-Confederate veteran.
He is showing himself in favor
of the organization of farmers,
fair elections, good roads, re.
form school, and purity in poll
tics and public life.
He is also showing strong
symptoms of sweeping the state
on the day Of the primaries.

where even to be elected cons
