The Birmingham News, like an ad- der. Is striking right and left. with out regard to consequences. One of its most violent displays of long-sup- pressed rage was in it's Issue of July 6. in which the whole Democratic ma chinery of the State Is taken to task. The Committee is handled without gloves. because the plan for the com ing primary was not arranged to suit its peculiar views. The following Is perhaps, the motive for the whole ar ticle:
 Any Democrat of Alabama, however humble, who might have aspired to a seat In the United States Senate, was his claims to the Democratic voters If the State, unprejudiced by any action of the State Committee and he would have enjoyed that right, except for a Biased committee.
 There Is nothing in the plan of the Gommittee to prevent "any Democrat ex Alabama. however humble" from entering the contest for Senator against Renator Morgan or Senator Pettus. The time for entering does not expire unt:l guiy 27 and there is full six weeks in which any candidate or candidates can canvass the State The State Commit lee cannot prevent this or rob any mal of any vote he may receive for United States Senator.

THURSDAY. JULY IF, 1906.
LET TT HE BUILT.

The proposition to establish a paper ulin in Montgomery is a good one which has been too long delayed. Once fairly established it need not confine it's work to the use of cotton n-stalks as raw material, for there are other sources of supply at hand and in al- most unlimited quantities Most Of the paper now in use for book and newspa. per work, for wrapping paper. aad many grades of writing paper is made Of wood pulp. Pine Is used successful ly and extensively, and the quantity of this wood that goes to waste at the numerous mills and shops would turn out an immense quantity of good pa per each year. Of the finer and softer wcods we have birch. maple. tupelo. gum and several others abounding .n all the swamp and low grounds. A paper mili using only wood need not lack for stock.
 But leaving out all other materi Il the Idea of using cotton stalks is a7 excellent one. All the farmers know what e large quantity of stalks is pra- duced each year. and also know the trouble of getting rid of them. If they could sell them 1t would add to the profit of cotton growing. and if tho price for the staple Is not as high sA he conld wish the added profit from tho stalks would be welcome addition to his annual income. There will be 10 difiiculty about getting a sufficient quantity of stalks.
 AS to the other details of nanufae- kure there can be no cause for doubt. Transportation to and from Montgon- cry Is almost complete. md a success kui cotton stalk paper mill here would hastsn the building of one or two other needed lines of raiIroad. Electric pow CT for the mill is practically unlimited and can be increased to any needed quantity. Labor can be had as TO- auired. and, what Is of perhaps great est importance, there would be no lack of pure water, which Is one of the es- sentials in the manufacture of white paper. In short, we cannot see or i'm. agine why such a mill may not bc built and operated here, nor why il should not be success from the start. The Advertiser wants to be printed on paper made in Montgomery.

President Roosevelt has taken per-
sonal interest in the charges of fraud
and corruption which are said to have
occurred in connection with the af-
fairs Of the five civilized tribes in the
Indian territory. But for his interior
ence indictments against several par
ties alleged to have been engaged in
illegal practices would have been
quashed. Now, however, under his
orders the interior department is
pushing its investigations with in
creased vigor, and it is reliably stated
that In the near future a number of
new indictments will be reported, not
only against several men already in
dicted, but they will include number
of persons whose names have not
heretofore been brought into the case,
including high government official
in Washington.
1t is known that Secretary Hitch
cock has submitted to the president
and Attorney General Moody special
report dealing with the whole situa-
ton which gives such details as to
make it imperative for the government
to act. For obvious reasons the re-
port for the present at least will not
be made public. but Secretary Hitch
cock characterizes the disclosures it
makes as Startling"

when the box examined it found to

He found big box weighing about one hundred
pounds, in the back of the store. In this box, he
says were about four hundred pike. AIiller's
friends said if he was arrested there would be a
