as potential a strength, as has the
state of New York there, and therein
is exemplified the wisdom of our
fathers when they provided that ach
state should have the same representa-
ton in the senate of the United States
as every other state.
The house is based upon votes, in
dividuals. the senate Is based upon
geography In the senate rests the
hopes for the growth Of the nation.
The territories of today that may con-
tain but few thousand people, in the
years that are to come may contain
more people than the oldest states of
the nation That provision of elastic
ity providing for the growth of the
nation, rests in the provision of the
constitution which gives each state an
equal representation in that body
1t adds to the power and strength
and Importance of the state of Idaho
Suppose that Idaho had but one MEM
Der of congress and one senator she
would have just two-thirds of her
present strength, she would be minus
one-third in legislation
If that were fair. even division of
the power-of course it Is not-the
senatorial vote of the state is Of more
Importance, or rather it's Importance
is not measured by the ratio of rep
resentation
1t is not sufficient for a man to stand
on this rostrum, and l am as good
a republican, as this or that represen-
tative of the Grand Old Party. We
judge them by their acts rather than
by their declarations. They cannot de-
ceive the people by leaving off of
public hand bill the name of the party
that they are to speak for.

The United States senate is per-

For the purpose of securing a State Normal School at Daphne, samuel .

 Mir Jenkins, who was in Montgofn- cry, yesterday, was very enthusiastic over the plan. According 50 his state- ment. there Is at present about $30, 900 in sight, which the people of Bald win county will have to offer the State for the school when the appropriation bill is Introduced.

RESULT OF SUIT AGAINST TELIt- GRAPH COMPANY.
n. 1T. Ragland Sued for Failure to Dee liver n Telegranl--Verdiet for $500 Against Traction
 Company.

In giving jury in his court the af- firmative charge yesterday, Judge A. D. Sayre of the Civil Division of the City Court of Montgomery held that absence from 4 sick br6therin- law does not cause one to suffer mental anguish within the construction of the law. Act ing under the charge Of Judge Sayre, the jury returned verdict for the plaintiff and assessed the damages at 35 cents.
 The suit was that of H. T. Ragland, the well-known desk sergeant of the Montgomery police department, against the Western Union Telegraph Company for failure to deliver a telegram with in reasonable time. The amount of the judgment allowed by the court rep resented the amount paid by MT. Rag land for sending the telegram.
 A brother+insl law of Mir. Ragland was ill at IIatchechubbee, and he was noti- fled by telephone. Mir. Ragland te1e- graphed his relatives that he would go to Hatcheehubbee to see his brother in-1aw, and asked that he be met at the train with conveyance. The tele- gram was filed in the Mont goHery of- flee of the Western Union at D. tn. It did not reach the person addressed un- til the following day.
 This is the incident upon which a suit for $1,99g was based. Judge Sayre gave the afhrmative charge, holding that MT. Ragiand could recover only the amount paid for the telegram--25 cents. By this verdict, however, the costs of the suit are fixed upon the tele- graph company.
 The second case tried yesterday be- fore Judge Sayre was that of Margie Hall against the Montgomery Traction Company. in which a jury awarded the plaintiff $500 damages for personal in- juries.

evening the suit of Adolphus Cannon to recover $1,5O0 freGf the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company was on trial. It will be resumed this morning
 Cannon. who Is 8 young man residing on Bell Street, alleges that he pur- chased a railroad ticket at the union railway station from Montgomery to Ramer, a station on the Atlantic Coast Line, and that the gatekeeper at the station directed hlm to a Louisville and Nashville train just pulling out of the car shed. He boarded this train and was put off three miles from Montgoni- cry by the conductor. who directed him to go across the country and flag the Coast Line train. It Is alleged that in carrying heavy baggage across the country he sustained personal injuries which caused him to lose two weeks from his business duties
 As the Louisville and Nashville Rail- road Company owns and conducts the union railway station. that company is made defendant to the suit;
