JUSTICE TO MIR. HELM.
Fifth District Congressman and HI
Resolution I'm Convention.


Resolution I'm Convention.
Contrary to the report made by The
Advertiser and other newspapers or the
proceedings of the State Democratic
Convention last Monday, Congressman
J. Tom Heflin, of the Fifth District did
not advocate government ownership OF
railroads.
The majority of the committee on
platform reported favorab1y the resolu-
ton by Mr.. Davis Walker as follows:
Resolved by the Democratic Party
of Alabama in convention assembled
that no resolution, action or other pr
ceeding by this Convection. shall in any
way commit the party to the PROPOSE
tion of Government ownership of Rail-
roads"
Mr. Heflin presented this minority
report: I'VE the following members
of the Committee on Platform and
Resolutions beg leave to submit to the
Convention that tho resolution offered
by Mr.. Davis of Walker. on government
ownership of railroads be laid on the
table. We have committed ourselves to
government regulation of railroads and
think it wise TO ignore Republican at
tacks on Mr.. BryaR's reference to the
subject"
(Signed) ]. Thomas Helm. John w.
Tomlinson. w. S. Forman. Frank S.
White. w. P. Lay. H. B. Gipson.
Both minority and majority reports
were laid on the table.
This action of the convention 'as
taken in its closing hours and when
there was much confusion. The re-
porters for The Advertiser, like the
reporters for other newspapers secured
an erroneous idea of Mr. Heflin's at
titude. He favored government reRula-
ton and not government ownership OF
railroads.

License IrH%.tor."
When questioned in regard TO the
matter last night. city Attorney Nc
Intyre said he was willing to stand on
his interpretation of the wording of
the CITY Code.
Paragraph ~ OF Section 901 of the
City Code" he said, reads as follows:
For keeping a warehouse for the
storage Of cotton, one and half cents
for each bale of cotton stored. Re-
turns Of the number of bales stored
must be made. under oath, to the City
Clerk, quarterly, on the first day of
October, January, April and July, and
the tax must be paid within thirty days
from such return day. In default of
such return within ten days from the
day herein fixed, for the making there
Of. sor. of the payment of the tax due
within the time herein specified for
the payment thereof, 1t shall be the
duty OF the Mayor to cause the license
for keeping tns warehouse to be for
feited and annulled.

sentence" he said. Il understand the
act Of keeping in storage for someone
else. I believe further that the courts
would thus construe the word"
License Inspector Cowan has de-
clared he would take no further steps
dn the matter. but will abide by the
opinion of the City Attorney.

day Night.
Tht anti-bucket shop ordinance in
troduced into the City Council by Al
derman Holloway. was before the Joint
Committee of Finance and judiciary
yesterday for some time. but the COM
mittee failed to agree on report. IL
Is. however. certain that the ordinance
will be reported to the Council at itf
next meeting Monday night. and re-
port may be agreed upon by that time.
1t was learned from one of the men,
bers of the committee that practically
all of the members agree with the spirit
of the ordinance, but that they are
divided on the method of accomplishing
the end. 1t Is said substitute has
been proposed for the original ordi-
nance and that several other suggest
ions of expediency have been made.
The committee was in session more
than an hour and adjourned at O'CLOCK
Prior to the meeting of the joint
committee, a meeting OF the judiciary
Committee was held atenoon for the
purpose of hearing testimony in q
number of claims for damages and re-
wards. No reports were decided upon
by the committee.
The following claims were heard:
Joe Lyon, a negro hackman, damages
for injury of horse; J. J. supple, asking
for return of money paid water works
department; Mark d. Brainard asking
damages for injuries in falling into a
catch basin: Mrs. M A. Kennedy, re-
Questing damages for the display OF

George Blakely, a negro. asking $3.50
damages for falling into a manhole;
j. l. Wheeler. asking 500 reward for
reporting a case of yellow fever; ]. c.
Conner, demanding damages for inju-
ries received by falling on sidewalk;
Shelby Miller. asking 800 reward for
reporting a case of yellow fever.
c. NJ. Perryman, who asked reward
for reporting a case OF yellow fever
withdrew his petition in favor of Shelby
Miller.

JESUS sILENCEs THE PHARI5EEs
AND sADDUCEh.S

AND sADDUCt;Es
Handel, when composing his oraso-
rio, The Messiah" was found bathsd
in tears. What touched him was the
prophets words. HE was dsspised."
The despising of Jesus was as evident
In the temple as at the cross. And
physical pains are not SO severe to a
spiritual soul as wounds inflicted upon
that higher nature. Lowell says: Our
modern martyrdoms are done In type"
So Jesus was crucified again and again
before ever He came to the cross. We
come now to the last onset OF HIS des-
pising critics.
It Is led on by the Pkarisees. They
have heard of the oewil1ering defeat
Jesus had given their rivals. the Sad
ducees; how. In a diaiestfcal way, He
had put an end to them forever. Now,
II they. the Pharisees. eould get the
better OF this brilliant young rabbi in
debate. they would scors . point
against the sadducees at the same time
that they blocked the way of a Tcach-
e.. whose success meant the end OF
their system.
We can not know whethe- the oues-
toner was disingenuous or not. To
assert (Expositor's) that the question
was asked by "a true man., "a gen
uine inquirer" Is an assumption, and.
at any rate, aside from the real roint
at issue. What the Pharisses wanted
was to elicit from Jesus u sentiment,
| If possible. categoricaI statement
which could be used against Him in
the trial for heresy impending.
The question itself illustrates the
character of religion then current. 1t
was techincality gone to seed. Liter
alism had killed spirituality. There
was such a bath of commandments
that classification reemed Imperative;
SO there were the little and great,
Hight and weighty. And the question
which was the chief of all was natur-
ally much mooted. A spiritual virtue
was not thought Of 1t was. for some,
washing hands; others, how to build
booth for the Feast of Tabernacles,
or. at best, eli cumcision and Keeping
Sabbath.
The answer of Jesus has been called
a miracle of genius. flash of inspir-
alton. He escaped the snare of the
| fowler He allied Himself with no
pickering faction. He carried the
question over into an entirely new
realm, where there are no disjointet
commands and sacramentai offices: but
where there is Life which gives cen

opinion Of City Attorney c. r. Nc
Intrye to the contrary. cotton ware
housemen should be required to pay a
license on all cotton whether stored
for other people, or stored as property
Of their own. License Inspector j g..
Cowan has written letter to the pub
lie explaining his views on the ques-
tion.
The letter. which was received by
The Advertiser yesterday afternoon.
follows:
Editor The Advertiser:
In your issue OF September 10 APP
pears local under the caption, Mr..
Cowan Wrong This local 10 some
what misleading and. as so many Of
your readers have questioned me re-
garding the article. respectfully re-
quest that you publish this statement.
Under an ordinance OF the city all
warehousenen are required to make
under oath, at the close of each quar-
ter, to the City Clerk. a statement Of
the number of bales Of cotton stored
by them and to pay one and half
cents per bale A. a license tax. The
ordinance DIES not express as to whom
the cotton may belong. but expressly
states upon all cotton stored.
Upon investigation acertafned that
Montgomery received. last year more
than 100000 bale of cotton, than were
reported by the warehousemen. For the
year just ending. September LIST, in round
number, Montgomery received a little
more than 10000 bales. According
to the reports of the warehouses only
about $4,000 bales were received.
learn that some of the Nwarehousemen
buy more than half the cotton they
store and claim that they were not
liable for the license tax upon their
own cotton. However. in every in-
stance. where they buy cotton on their
own account, in rendering an account
OF sales to the person or persons from
whom the cotton Is purchased, charge
of so cents per bale Is deducted for
the first months storage. For in
stance, farmer sends ten bales of cot
ton on wagons to market and this cot
ton is bought by a warehouseman. He
makes the farmer pay SO cents stor-
age upon each bale.
My contention was that upon all
such cotton, the city was entitled to
the license tax OF one and q half cents
per bale The City Attorney has de-
cfded against me and so far as 1 am
concerned the matter Is disposed OF
However this does not prevent me from
holding to the opinion as to the COR
rectness of my position.
AS there is no other. license tax
imposed upon cotton warehouses, save
this one and half cents per bale, one
can readily see that warehousen,an
IL so disposed. could only store such

The Teachers Lantern.

He was continuously engaged in
cleansing the temple. Only the whip
OF small cords with which He drove
out the gross profaners changed to
the sword of His mouth, with which
He slew the refined, hypocritical per-
verters of the sanctuary. The sacred
enclosure. called the treasury, became
an arena which witnessed an unparal-
ieled dialectical tournament.
A towering. united, invincibie eccle-
| siastici3m set itself for the overthrow
| of Teacher whose spirit and doctrine
| 1t Justly recognized as entirely mimi
cal 1t had to do 1t II 1t would per-
petuate itself. 1t was the instructive
dictate of self preservation.
Jealous fear made strange bed fell
lows. Pharisee. the paragon OF ortho-
doxv, and Sadducee who stood for he
terodoxy, like PLATE and Herod, were
made friends in a day. and both con-
sorted with the supposedly unpatriotic
Herodians. This triple alliance could
hardly fail to compass it's end. 1t was
only questions of means to use.
The Importance of this climacteric
controversy is apparent from the large
space given TO the account OF it.
Twenty-Five chapters in the four Cos
pels are devoted to the last week of
Jesus's life.
Through the Opaque surface of a
hard polished, conventional ecclesias
ticism Jesus shot the Roentgen ray of
His omniscience. Beneath the whiten-
ed surface the moral filth OF an invet-
crate depravity was brought to light.
The temple witnessed the flercest
dialectical contest ever seen. 1t was
fought to the finish. Jesus was victor.
His denunciations fell like strokes of
lightning. None could stand before
Him. He was life refiner's fire and
fullers soap.
Tho principle of stewardship under
lies all individual. national, and eccle-
siasrical life Nothing is held in fee
simple All is in trust for the infinite
Proprietor. The Lords collectors are
ever appearing to demand His portion.
The happy. prosperous, useful. indi-
yidual. national and ecclesiastical life,
Is that in which the principle of stew
ardship is recognized, its Brightness
conceded, and it's acquisitions met.
There is no escaping the retributions
of Divine justice. How short-lived the
victory of Jewish ecclesiasticism over
Jesus! Into what an AWFUL maelstrom
and how soon, temple with its cody

Rivers RUNNING Inland.

A remarkable instance of a river
flowing inland is found in Africa.
Near the shores of the gulf of Alden
is a small body of salt water, Lake
Assal, occupying basin whose flow
is several hundred feet below sea
level. The surface Of the lake itself
is nearly 700 feet below mean tide.
and it is fed by a river or stream
some 20 or more miles in length. flow
ing inland from the ocean. 1t is high
ly probable that the whole basin which
the lake partly hlls was once an arm
Of the sea, which became separated
therefrom by the drifting sands. The
innowing river has a limited volume,
and has filed the basin to the extent
that the evaporation and supply ex-
actly balance each other. At Adels-
berg, in Carniola, % miles northeast
Of Trieste. is famous grotto. which
is divided into two parts, the old
grotto and the new. The old grotto
Is s5s feet in length while the new
extends to $3.50 feet. The river Polk
flows inland in part Of the grotto and
disappears below the ground.
