order to hold office in Alabama man
must be a qualified voter. This means
that he must be a resident OF the
state for two years, which is the quail
ification for citizenship and the voting
privilege The question is still open
and can only be decided by the courts,
notwithstanding the attorney general s
opinion. If this is the true interpre-
tation of the statute, it is said that
about one.fourth of the notaryS public,
justices of the peace and other OIL
GERS in Alabama would be disqualified.
This is especially true in sparsely set
tied counties like Baldwin, where the
country is filing up with immigrants
and people from the North, who have
not Beeh fnsthe state long enough to
become quaiiIed voters.
The office of justice of the peace
in FaiFhope was vacant for over a
year before my appointment, in con-
sequence of which Fairhope was with
out legal officer. of any kind, either
squire or constable. Frequent drunk
en- brawls disturbed the peace Of the
community and it was impossible to
hold a country dance or a village par
ty without it's being broken up in a
drunken fight. In the four moths in
which l have held the office, these
disturbances have almost entirely dis
appeared, and it is because of this en-
fOrcement of law and order that the
people of FairhOpe resent the action of
those who have caused my arrest.
Among the cases tried by ME was
a suit to recover $3.50 against a resi-
dent of Baldwin county. The case
was decided against the defendant,
and with the costs amounted to about
So. This man subsequently came TO
me and demanded the return of the
money and informed me that the at
tOrney general had given an opinion
that any person holding office in Ala
bama must be a qualified voter. AS
L held the governors commission
promptly refused to return the money.
and it is alleged that this man then
obtained legal advice, appeared before
the grand Jug at Bay Mihette and
had me indicted for unlawfully holding
a public office.
Il was indicted by the grand jury
for the offense Of unIawfulIy holding
a public office AS | hold a commits
sion from the governor it is difficult
to see how there could be any inten-
ton to commit a crime, and the es-
sence of a crime is criminal intent
1t is probable that the Baldwin county
officials have made a mistake In start
ing criminal action in this case
When | was taken to Bay Minette
| carried with me a bail bond which
/ supposed would secure my release
The sheriff, however, construed the
law strictly, and decided the bonds
men were not qualified under the
statute, and l had to go to Jail, where
| remained two days, until yesterday
afternoon. The peculiar ruling of the
sheriff and his advisers on this matter
of a bail bond is that a bondsman
must have $4,000 on the assessors
books before he is legally qualified to
sign a bond"

An Alabama Justice of the
Peace Spends Some
Hours in Jail.
PUT IN JAIL FOR HOLDING AN
OFFICE WHEN HE WAS NOT A
QUALIFIED VOTER AND WAS
THEREFORE NOT ELIGIBLE TO
HOLD ANY OFFICE AT ALL.

P. Y. Albright, justice of the peace
bonds at Bay Minette, few days ago
He had been jailed on an Indictment
of holding o...ce illegally and IN VIC
lation of the constitution Of Alabama.
He had served two days and a night
in Jail. Mr. Albright retained. Attor-
ney Sam G. Jenkins, of Baldwin
county, to defend him at the hearing,
which rs set for the October term OF
the Baldwin circuit court. Of his ar
restyMr. Albright says:
The question of whether a man
must be a qualified voter in order to
hold the Office OF justice Of the peace
in Alabama has never been passed on
by the courts. The staUute provides
that the qualifications for filing the
office are that the applicant must be
n resident of the district applied for
and conform to other qualifications OF
the constitution. But the constitution
is silent on the subject and in no
part of the statute or the constitution
do the, words citizen or qualified vo-
ter occur with reference to a Justice
of the peace.
The statute expressly provides
that a, county judge must be a resi-
dent OF sthee county for two years, and
a circuit 5udgeemuSt be a resident for
one year. but nothipg:is said with ref
erence TO a,justicesof the peace either
as to timeso OF residence or as a, quail
if1ed voter. The fact that the statute
expressly states the time of residence
required for county Judge Or circuit
court judge to hold office. and Is silent
in the same requirements OF a justice
OF, the peace, would seem to indicate
that no such qualification was intend
ed. This has been the opinion of not
few lawyers on this subject until
a few months ago, when the attorney
general gave it as his opinion that in

Recent Years Have Seen a
Big Change in Tone of
the u. S. Senate.
AssERTIvENEss Is
ONE OF THE MOST POTENT
FACTORS IN THE PASSING OF
"THE FAMILY" AS THE POWER
BEHIND THE THRONE OF THE
POPULAR RULE.
The New York Globe says:

The New York Globe says:
The old senate is passing. In the
last several years the upper body OF
congress has experienced numerous
losses of members high in rank and
old in the harness of senatorial serv-
ice. Younger men are coming on the
stage. Names that for years have
been familiar in the nation in connec-
ton with senate affairs are rapioiy
being thinned out by death and poilu-
cal changes. The death OF Senator
Edmund W. Pettus, of Alabama, In
his eighty-seventh year, following
closely on the death of hts lifelong
friend and colleague, Senator John
Tyler Morgan, of the same town, OF
the same state, and of the. age OF 80,
has served to call attention to the
gaps in the ranks of the senate vet
Grams.
Senator Allison, of Iowa, who has
been in the senate continuously since
March 4, 1878, and who is In his sew
enty-nintfi year, still serves on and
takes a prominent part in affairs as
the head of the Republican steering
committee and of the committee on
appropriations. Senator Henry NJ.
Teller, of Colorado, is next to him in
length of service. Senator Teller en-
tered the senate in 1876, but for three
years was not in that body, being
secretary of the. interior under Presi-
dent Arthur. Senator Shelby NJ Gull
lom, OF Illinois, entered the senate in
1888, and Senators Hale and Frye be-
gan their senate careers in 1880, Sen
bator Hale being few days the senior
in service. Both of the Maine sena-
tors are still vigorous. Senator Teller
is beginning to grow old, and Senator
Cullom, though he gives careful atten-
ton to the proceedings, IS becoming
feeble.
With the old-timsrs being elimin-
ated rapidly, and the certainty that
the next two or three years will wit
ness the passing of a considerable
number of the men who have become
we'll known, in some cases famous,
for their service in the senate, the
younger and newer men are forcing
themselves to the front The inner
circle that runs the senate and has
done so for years is called THE Fam
lily" When one gets down to business
in the senate, he will be able to find
cOmparativelytfew things that are not
all in The Family 1t has been
so for years, but 1t is growing less
and less so. Assertive young mem
bers are insisting on their rights. lucy
are forcing themselves to the front
and compelling a hearing. The reins
of power are beginning to slip from
the hands of that coterde Of senators,
headed by Aldrich, of Rhode Island,
who have so long swayed things.

Its Fire and IL. oirdIs Cakes.

The Chequers inn, Osmotherley, is
relic Of the old coaching days. but it IS
now famed for its fire, which has ne7-
er been out for more than 100 years
and over which girdle cakes are baked.
This huge fire is kept continually bum
ing by peat or turf from the Yorkshire
moors. An excellent tea is provided
for visitors, the chief dainty being the
girdle cakes. The peat glows Ike red
embers on red tiled floor, the gird.e
being suspended from a bar above, the
whole looking most quaint and pittlr'
esque. The exterior of the inn is moss
unpretentious and old world looking
as it nestles alone on the Yorkshire
wolds.-London Standard.
