HATE IN THE HEART.

In making careful prolonged re-
Election upon life in all its different
phases we conclude that nothing for
bad effects upon the hearts and homes of
people can override the mistake of
"hate in the heart" of one man for an
other. The Marietta Journal, one of
the brightest weeklies in the state
and which we read with great interest,
indicates that Marietta is afflicted with
some people who entertain in their
hearts the opposite to the kindest sort
of feeling for some of their fellow crea
tures,-The Walton News.

day to sell load of fine apples. He
was offered $3.50 a bushel. A travelling
man who was standing by remarked to
the farmer: "If you had those apples

farmer, "an, if had pail of water in

TALKS ABOUT
 THE ALABAMA OFFICES

Republicans in this state have been told by J. o. Thompson, the chairman of the Alabama republican state commit tee that President Roosevelt has de- termined to apply the principles of the civil service in the retention or dismissal of federal officehalders.
 While in Washington last week. Mir. Thompson had long conference with the President on this subject. The question whether or not there should be rotation in office" in case position had been held for two successive terms by the same man was especially discussed. MT. Roosevelt told MT. Thompson that the length of service would not affect a federal appointee's tenure of office. The President said that the one thing to be considered would be the quality of ser- vice rendered and the character of the officeholder. In case where all things were equal between the incumbent and the new applicant the preference would

 At the close of the matter, which was held in executive session. the bidders were notified that 1t would not be neces- sary for them to remain in the city any longer; that the secretary would advise them later as to what action the com mission would take in the matter. A meeting will probably be held some time next week
 The original plan of the commission was to erect a monument to Father O'Reilly near his grave at St. Vincent's s hospital to cost somewhere in the neigh borhood of sS5OO. These plans may be changed however

RAILROAD WORLD.

Circulars have been received in Bir- mingham announcing the promotion of T. 8. Noise, formerly general superin- tendent of the Central of Georgia rail- way, to general manager. J. T. John son, formerly superintendent of trans portation, has been appointed general superintendent. The changes were made at meeting of the board of directors in Savannah.
 Mir Noise has been with the Central for the past twenty-five years. and has, He is still comparatively young man. His headquarters will remain in Savan- nah.
 MT. Noise fills the vacancy caused by the death of Theodore Kline. who died last January. MT. Johnson was super intendent of the Columbus division until a year ago, when he was appointed su- perintendent of transportation.
 N. D. Wiggins, formerly train rule examiner of the Southern railway sys- tenn, but now retired from railroading, was in the city yesterday in attendance on court He is living in Jackson, Tenn, and came to Birmingham to testify in a case for the Southern.
 MT. wiggins was at one time superin- tendent of the Illinois Central railroad. and is one of the old landmarks of rail roading in America. He has many friends among the old railroad men.
 M. M. Richey, assistant general su- perintendent of the Southern, was in Att lanta yesterday. He will probably go to Knoxville today and return to Bir- mingham tonight or tomorrow morning.

RAILROADS IN SOUTH
 GIVE FEW REBATES
w. A. WINBURN, SECOND VICE PRESIDENT OF CENTRAL OF GEORGIA, TALKS OF FREIGHT RATE DETERMINATIONS.

W. A. winburn, second vice president arrived in Birmingham yesterday talked interestingly last night at the Hillman regarding the Centrars condition in gen. eral and regarding alleged freight rate discrimination in particular.
 q am here on one of my regular bus mess visits" said MT. Winburn in re- sponse to an inquiry. '1 am glad to say that the Central, of Georgia Is doing a satisfactory business. There has been a slight depression recently on all railway lines in the south, due of course. to the comparatively low price of cotton. Other- wise the volume of our business Is en- ccuarging, with no sign of diminution."
 What do you think of the proposed en- largement of the scope of the interstate commerce commission, so as to enable 1t to fix railway freight rates and prevent discriminations and rebates?" was asked
 That is big question:" said MT. Win burn, land one that requires the best judgment of the wisest men in the coun- try. It may be that five men or seven men can determine wisely what shall be the freight rates on all the railways. I would not, however. care to be one of the five upon whom would devolve the re- sponsibility.
 "Fortunately there are few if any com plaints of railway rebating in the south ern states. For that reason the demand for federal jurisdiction in the matter does not seem imperative with us. So far as I know there are scarcely any cases of rebating in this section. Certainly there is none on the Central of Georgia.
 "There are, of course, discrimlnations, but these discriminations are due to competition with rival railway and water lines. They are necessary in the very nature of things. In such cases the dis crimination is made not to injure but to accommodate the public. and to share the publc's patronage.
 "If all railway lines were as free from offending in this rebate business as the | lines in the south are, there would be great deal less agitation of the sub- | ject than there is."

COMMERCIAL CLUB
 TO HAVE ASMOKER
A NUMBER OF SPEAKERS WILL MAKE SHORT TALkS-MANY MATTERS OF LIVE INTEREST WILL BE CONSIDERED.

The Commercial club smoker Friday interesting sessions of the club held in @ long time. A number of speakers are expected to talk on matters of live inter- est, and the general policy of the club for the ensuing year will be mapped out.
 Among the speakers at the smoker will be Eli P Smith, J. J. Smith, w. P G. Harding. w. H. Kettig, James Weatherly, the Rev Dr. J. w. stagg. the Rev. Frank Willis Barnett and John G. Cald- well.
 Among the subjects which will come up for consideration are probable action on the report of the committee which went to Washington to invite President Roose- welt to Birmingham; the matter of secur- ing larger number of convention for Birmingham; a new advertising plan by which 1t is hoped to bring Birmingham before the people of the United States in more attractive manner than ever before; report on the St. Louis ex- position exhibit; report on the industrial cooperation plan to aid young industries by loaning them money, and the election of about twenty-five members.
 A new project of great interest to Br- mingham will be brought up at the meet ing, but the club feels that the matter had better not be made public until Fri day night
 It is probable that the attendance at this meeting of the club will be larger than that of any previous meeting for some time past

be given to the incumbent.
 The President impressed upon Mir. Thompson the idea that 1t would be folly to attempt to build up a political party by patronage. He said that the country had become so large, so great and so populous, and the officeholding class was relatively so small a portion of the total population, that the strength of a po- litical party must rest upon something more substantial than a distribution of political pie"
 MT. Roosevelt said, however, that in cases where an appointee had failed to measure up to the responsibilities of his office. or had been proved to be ineffi- cient as an administrator, or had lost caste in the community, his removal would follow in spite of his continued service of two terms in office.
 MT. Thompson has taken pains to com municate the Presidents views on this subject to "the faithful' in Alabama.

 It was decided yesterday that the capi- tai stock of the American Trust and Savings Bank should be increased from S100,000 to s200, 900, and that the new stock should be offered at $50 per share Ap- plications for more than the amount of the new stock to be issued were made yesterday.

 The record of the American Trust and Savings Bank, which Is not yet two years old, has been almost phenomenal. The deposits of this institution have grown to a million dollars and the ex- pectations are that the deposit account today when the two banks are combined d will be in the neighborhood of two mill lion dollars, or perhaps more.

The stockholders of the Jefferson Coun- ty Savings bank adjourned until next Thursday at p. m. without transacting any business. The adjournment was due to the absence of two of the large stock holders.
