TELEGRAPHERS ASK
 AID OF PRESIDENT
PRESIDENT SMALL SAYS UNION IS NOT TO BLAME FOR STRIKE. THE POSTAL WILL FIGHT TO A FINISH.

Oakland Cal, June A.-President Small of the telegraphers' union announced this afternoon that he would ask the aid of the United States government in the set clement of the strike. He said he would appeal to President Roosevelt and mem bers of the cabinet to intercede on the ground that the transaction of business of national importance is being interfered with because of the strike. President Small asserts that when intervention is made by the President and cabinet off, eials, it will be learned that the striking telegraphers are in no wise to blame for the strike
 A telegram was received by General Superintendent l.. W. Storer of the Poa- tai Telegraph company. It Is in sub stance follows:
 While deeply regretting the situation, I feel that our men in abandoning their positions were unmndful and needless of their duty to the public and the company and guilty of unwarranted action. We shall take a firm stand in dealing with the situation and we are determined to win, regardless of the cost. With this in view, I hereby approve and confirm the instructions given you by the general manager and in addition thereto you are authorized to say to our loyal men who stand by us in our difficulty:
 "'All operators will be paid their regu- lar salary as a bonus and their services will be computed as extra on a basis of seven hours per day night. Should you deem 1t wise to do so you may also fur nish free meals and lodgings until the re- turn of normal conditions.

Bankhead Wins His Fight
 Is Alabama s Nexf Senator
Administration Defines Its Attitude Gov Corners Statement Says Lieut. Gov Gray Was to Stress Imporance of Rail road Fight and Senators Duty No Serious Oppo
 sition to Bankhead Expected

with the governor in all matters of public policies.
 Senator Banl<head is here tonight and expresses perfect satisfaction with the outlook.
 The statement of Lieutenant Governor Gray will not be surprising to people of Birmingham who are thoroughly alive to the situation and WHO may have read between the lines of recent utterances of Governor Conner. While the governor has refused to make any public statement of his position upon the senatorial matter since he issued his statement just prior to the appointment of Colonel Bankhesd to the senatorship, several persons who have been in close touch with the gover- nor have advanced the opinion that Gov ernor Conner would not actively oppose Senator Bankhead's election by the legis- lature.
 The political horizon is clearing throughout the state upon the senatorial question and the expressions from the people and the press generally reflect the conviction that Senator Bankhead will have smooth sailing when the legis- lature assemblies Locally sentiment re- mains unchanged from the consensus of opinion gathered last week with reference to the opposition that Senator Bankhead Is expected to have to regular succession to the seat of the late Senator Morgan. and that is, that the Birmingham delega- ton Is practically unanimous for the pres ent incumbent
 Former Governor Johnston's statement Sunday morning as to his position upon the senatorial matter was expected and developed nothing new in any way. Press comment upon Governor Johnston's ex- pression has been favorable and all who have commented upon 1t locally declare 1t adds to the strength of Senator Bank heads position.
 Senator Bankhead passed through Bir- mlngham Saturday evening on his way to South Alabama, where he will spend sev eral days looking after his interests in that section of the state.
 It has been reported that two other candidates for the senatorship would an nounce in opposition to Senator Bankhead at early date. but so far the only op- ponents for the office are Jesse F. Stall ings and Colonel John W. Tomlinson, both of Birmingham, and 1t is the general be- lief that no others will take the field.

Montgomery, June A.-tSpecal.)- )-Lieu- tenant Governor Henry B. Gray in statement for The Age Herald, said to- night that he was convinced that there would be no serious opposition to J. H. Bankhead for senator, and expected his election by the unanimous vote of both branches of the legislature.
 MT. Gray reached the city tonight, com ing from New York, where he has been on business. He was found at his room shortly after reaching the city and asked for statement. He responded in these words:
 "1 regret exceedingly that important business kept me in Boston and New York at the time of the funeral of Sen ator Morgan. l read hundreds of col umns in the eastern papers paying tribute to Morgan as the greatest senator since Clay, and the expressions were of such cordial nature and so general that I was made more than ever proud of being an Alabamian
 q have read with no little interest fhe statement Governor Conner made with reference to the qualifications of a sen ator just prior to the appointment of MT. Bankhead. l have also been rather sur prised to see that it was construed by some to mean that the governor would oppose Mir. Bankhead's election by the legislature.
 ''1 think his only intention was to inn press upon the people that the fight for railroad control had only started. and that they had a right to expect of their sena- tor loyal support along this line. l am certain myself that Governor Conner has too great a regard for the constitution. which he has sworn to support to con- sder for one moment either being can didate for senator or accepting this posi- tion if unanimously rendered him. l am further convinced that there can be no serious opposition to MT. Bankhead's cam didacy, and personally believe that he will be nominated and elected unanimous ly by both branches of the legislature"
 The statement from Mr. Gray Is re- garded as significant. and by the card, as he is known to be fully in accord

To Remedy These Conditions.
Our citizenship is too honest. too
much In earnest about the real things
of life. to fear to look the truth in the
face, The people are, in increasing
numbers; looking squarely at the
school conditions, and with moral
courage haves determined to remedy
these conditions. THE issue is clear
ly defined; the war is on; the battle
is joined and who can doubt the out
come when the children's interests are
at stake? There are many citizens
there are some superintendent and
trustees and supervisors and treas
Grers and legislatorS-who are indfti-
erent or hostile to this great cause.
But there is nothing more inspiring to
me and to my fellow-workerse than to
witness daily the interest shown by
large numbers of these officials and to
see and admire their moral courage.
their devotion and their persistence In
this battle for the children. 1t equals
any heroisn ever displayed on bloody
fields. Their names are not heralded;
there is no beating of drums, and few
see their efforts. But there Is one
who seeth all things.
AS for our teachers, some OF them
are heroes, but most OF them are hero
