WORK OF SENATE
WELL ADVANCED
NO NEED TO HOLD A SATURDAY
SESSION.
EVANS BILL REPORTED
Effective Anti-Cigarette Measure Rec
commended by the Senate Commit
tee on State Affairs in Favor of
Concurrence-All BARRIERS Bills
Likely to be Killed.
Madison March II.

Madison March II.
The senate worked so hard yester-
DAY that it was determined not to hold
Saturday session. The assembly
will meet tomorrow, but the senators
believe that the lower house takes
enough time in oratory to require an
extra day Of each week. The senators
pride themselves on working nightly
while they are at it and accomplish
ing as much work in four days as the
assembly does in five or six. This is as
a humorous senator expressed it. At
any rate the upper house, on motion of
Senator Munson, voted against hold
ing Saturday session.
It seems assured that Governor La
Toilette will have an anti-cigar.tte bill
sent to him for approval. rhe report
Of the assembly measure for concur
renee indicates that tie upper house
will probably pass the somewhat dras-
tic Evans bill.

SUNDAY, MARCH U, 1905.
TIRED OF IT.

The Chicago Tribune has become dis gusted with It's party. friends down in old Missouri. It sees that neither Kerens nor Niedringhaus can be elect cd, and says if they will not voluntari- ly get out of the way the Republican members of the Legislature ought to force them out of 1t. The Tribune mentions several Republicans who would be suitable and available and winds up with this very plain sug- Eestion:
 The duty of the Republican legisla- tors of Missouri is clear If they can not agree on some good Republican they ought not to prevent the re-elec- tion of Senator Cockrell, whom both the Republicans and the Democrats of Missouri and the nation admire and revere.
 That is talking very much to the point but we doubt if it will be effec- tive. It has been suggested that enough Republicans who are tired of both Kerens and Niedringhaus might absent themselves and allow the Demo- crats to elect Cockrell, but would that leave enough members Tn the Jofnt SeS- sion to elect Senator? It might be that such a course would defeat its object, though we are not informed sufficiently to decide that point We do know, however, that the advice of The Tribune Is good, where it says that if the Republicans cannot agree on a good man of their party they should allow Cockrell to be chosen.
 That is sensible advice and it would be patriotic in the Republicans to adopt it. The truth is that they are all at sea. It has been so long since they had control in Missouri that they seem to have no idea of policy and are keeping up fight which bids fair to deprive Missouri of Senator. If they can see any party advantage in that course they have sharper eyes than we have. They now have it in their power to elect a Senator easily if they will quit throat-cutting. but if they let the chance slip they are not likely to get another. Better take The Tribune's suggestion. and send Cock reil back.

SHAMEFUL NEGLECT.

It is a sad reflection, as well as a reflection on the government and the people of the United States, that the remains of John Paul Jones yet occupy an unknown resting place. The eff forts of Ambassador Porter give some hope that his tomb will be found and the remains identified, but 1t is feared that there will always be doubt as to the genuineness of any supposed body or remains of the great sailor. There is a tradition in France, it Is true, that he was buried in a leaden coffin, and that a gold sword given him by the King of France was placed in the cof- fin with him. This account or tradi- tion Is credited by archeologists in France, and if it is true there may be a good chance to find and identify him.
 John Paul Jones, or John Paul as he was first named. might almost be call ed the pioneer in American naval war fare. He was the first to hoist the American flag over an American war ship and the young government had no more loyal supporter, as the young navy had no more fearless and deter mined fighter. The fighting blood of his Scotch ancestry was hot in his veins. and the freedom-loving spirit of the Bruce and Wallace fired his heart. With little ships that would hardly do duty as tug-boats now he sailed the seas and carried defeat and consterna- ton wherever, he went. When our war was over his restless spirit could not be satisfied with the ways of peace, and he went over and joined the Rus sian navy, where he was given the title of Rear Admiral, and in his usual way of fighting did some valuable ser vice against the Turks. As was natural. howevey, the native Russian officers were jealous of him 1and the reputation he was making. and he re- signed and returned to Erahea- where

ever-changing scene. The White House was illuminated throughout the display. President Roosevelt and his family viewed a portion of the display from the south windows of the White House. Many of the features could be seen all over the city. First of all was the Presidents sa- lute. Twenty-one aerial meteors burst ing with terrific report high in the air, constituted the salute. This was fol- lowed by a grand illumination of the White House lot, or ellipse, with pow erful colored lights.
 Another honor shown the newly in- stalled President was the displaying of a colossal fire portrait of himself
 A novelty was produced by mammoth shell which, at height of 100 feet released a large bomb with red, green. blue and white stars, followed by a gold shell representing Cuba. and sil- yer shell for Porto Rico. finishing with Ia number of smaller shells for the Philippines.
 A huge pyrotechnic American flag 300 feet long and 150 feet wide, was unfurled at high altitude to which it was carried by balloons.
 An immense bouquet of American Beauty roses burst forth as a set piece. changing into a portrait of Mrs. Roose- welt.
 A mammoth fire wheel. making a re- volving ring of fire nearly 100 feet in diameter, was another attractive fea- ture.
 There was an ascent of 100 largo prismatic whirlwinds forming umbrel- las of fire and the flight of twenty 50- inch bombs produced pleasing combi- nations in color effect.
 The display concluded with the flight of $50 colored bombs. At times the bursting of the shells gave the idea of a sham battle. A clouded sky added to the success of the fireworks pro- gram,

he died in 17s2. His naval career was short but brilliant and eventful, for he was but 45 years old at his death.
 There were some newspaper state- ments to the effect that he died in Paris in poverty. neglect and disgrace. but this seems to be a mistake. What seems to be authentic accounts state that he was we'll cared for. had the attendance of the Queens physician. as well as the care of kind friends. and the French National Assembly honored him with a public funeral. Un- fortunately the published accounts fail to state where he was buried, nor can any record be found to show the exact spot. If General Porter succeeds ip finding and identifying the remains they will be brought to this country and dnally rest in the Republic for which he fought, and of which he said: America has been the country of my fond election from the age of 13, when first saw it.
 Paul Jones suffered the fate which often falls to brilliant and successful men. He was traduced and persecuted, vilified and bounded by those who en- vied the reputation they could not &C., quire for themselves. Though he did not die in want and neglect, it is cer- tain that his last years were embitter- ed by enmities of those who should have been ashamed of their meanness. That he was in a certain sense a sol dier of fortune is true, but it is equal ly true that the embryo United States had no truer supporter or faithful servitor than he. That his body has lain In an unknown, and neglected grave for considerably more than century Is not ccreditable to the gov- ernment he helped to establish or to the people whose liberties he helped to secure. Let us hope that after all these years of obscurity his body may finally rest in the land he loved so well and for whose liberties he freely offer ed his life.

Wisconsin Party at Capitol.

An army of civilians invaded the State Capitol yesterday. Capt. Joel Barnett saw them in a dozen carriages drive around the terrace, and then they alighted.
 The crowd scattered in the corridors of the Capitol, some going one way and others into the office of the Governor. Who are they?" asked the heads of the departments The clerks asked likewise. Attaches of the building with q reporter determined to find out. In quiries of individual members of the party revealed that this member was from Milwaukee, this from Waukesha and this from Plymouth, and all from Wisconsin. There were fifty-three in the party.
 The relics on the first floor of the Capitol were scanned by the visitors who in short while drove away after having seen for the first time in their lives the first seat of the Confectionery.
 The party caught a train last night for New Orleans to attend Mardi Gras. They will return to Wisconsin Monday week
 Hundreds of Northern visitors were seen on the streets yesterday between trains destined for New Orleans.

would Have Salvage Corps.

T don't see why the insurance com panies doing business in Montgomery don't pay a salvage corps to work with the Montgomery Fire Department" said an improvement loving citizen.
 Tn many cities in which I have lived or visited, the companies pay for the equipment and salaries of salvage corps, which works under the direction of the Chief of the Fire Department. Now I don't want to reflect on the efff- ciency of the Montgomery Fire De- partment, but the insurance companies could save themselves considerable money by installing such corps. Many times the damage to goods by water is far greater than the damage by fire, but such would not be the case if tar paulins were spread in time by salvage corps men.
 Let the insurance agents think about this" |"

It was a saying of Washington Irving that "the man who plants a tree does a noble and unselfsh act, z" but that is not exactly a correct view for there are very few indeed who plant solely for others. The planter expects to be benefited by his act. and to that extent there is a spice of selfishness in the work, but that is but the stronger reason for tree-planting. When a man knows that he Is working for others as well as himself he is not to blame if he is just a little selfish.

New Order to Police.

There has been some adverse com ment in the recent order of the Ch1ef of Police compelling patrolmen to keep their coats buttoned while on duty" said a man who takes an interest Tn everything which pertains to Montgom- cry.
 Tt has been argued that 1t makes the men uncomfortable. This may be true. ance of the force more than pays for the small loss of comfort. The but toned coat makes the patrolman hold himself more erect. and adds to his well-appearing policeman can enforce the law with much more ease than careless one. Slouchiness causes loss of dignity and loss of dignity causes loss of respect
 Now. let the Chief of Police issue an order compelling the patrolmen to cease smoking on their beats and Mont gomery will be further improved. These little things make big impressions on strangers In the city"

In The Wilcox Progressive Era oi last Thursday we find this item:

The red-breasted Robin has been very plentiful in the past two weeks, and many have feasted upon its de- lightful food. Now they are becoming scarcer, and are moving further north.
 Nobody can blame them for going north. or anywhere else, If, as soon as they visit us they are to become the prey of the ruthless sportsman CD. No more delightful visitor comes to our climate, and none that is a better frend to the farmer and the gardener. It is a shame, almost sin, that the first notes of these glad harbingers of Spring should be their own death song. It would serve us right if they could be given the instinct to remain away from Alabama if they are to get no better welcome than a bullet or load of shot.

 This willingness and capacity of Gov ernor Vardeman to maintain the law, peace and dignity of his State. is a virtue which will stand as great credit to him against the debits he has made by unwise expressions.
