M. Mccoy, chairman, Harry Howard and " O. 1iawKins.
 The movement was enterprised at Attn ems by MT. Mccoy who is one of the leading members of the conference. He had taken it up at the request of Dr. Thomas M. Owen, director of the state department of archives and history, and pushed it through He had also the ap- proval and support in the movement of Bishop Galloway and other members of the denomination.
 Bishop Galloway wrote Dr. Owen that he was in full sympathy with the idea and had seen 1t work out to great good in other states. Rev. l.. c. Branscomb. pa stor of the Talladega station. wrote: You may depend on our conference" and Mir Mccoy: "I am impressed with the value of the idea"
 l The object of the department of ar chives and history at this time is not only to encourage organized societies to report to the department and cooperate with it but to stimulate others to be- l come interested.

Caused Surprise.

The report from Washington that As sistant District Attorney Julius Sternheld of the United States court had been re- moved because of alleged Irregularities in his accounts caused a wave of sur prise here and there are many who refuse to believe that the young man has done anything to even be called irregular let alone criminal. He has been raised here and has made his way to the front with the eyes of all the people upon him.
 The trouble seems to lie in the matter of compensation for special work order ed done by the department some time ago in connection with peonage investigations He was at that time assistant district attorney and when assigned to the spe- cial work 1t Is said. was not removed from the regular duties. The new work required big expenses and much running about and he was to be rewarded, all seem to have understood, in proportion to the additional service.
 It is said that here is where the accusa- tion of irregularity came in. He drew the salary of the regular service and the extra pay allowed for the special duty. both of which he supposed were his. He had not been told by anybody that the new work made any difference. and the fact that his accounts were approved by the various sources through which they passed seems to bear him out in the showing made.
 MT Sternfeld says that he has not been removed. that part of the story being an error.
 There has been much unrest in repubi- can circles for some time. The failure of Marshal Bryan to make good after he had been endorsed by Judge Thomas G. Jones, the subsequent fight made on the selection of Judge Jones made by the referees the endorsement here and there
 
 has caused things to become very much muddled It seems that there Is by no means a certainty that the new selection of Judge Jones for the marshalship will he named. it having been reported that Captain Bryan has ben given another chance
 J. O. Thompson, collector of internal revenue at Birmingham. and Charles Scott of Montgomery are the advisors of the President in Alabama, and they seem to have impressed him anew in the last few days that they ought to be considered in all Alabama patronage distribution. It is said that they have backed Joe Burton for marshal at Montgomery, and have a letter written by Judge Jones saying he Is a good man.
