Bale of Cotton Was Thrown From Wagon and Fell On Joe Taylor, Who Received Internal

Advertiser Bureau.


 Selma, Jan. 3. X Joe Taylor, an aged negro of Brew ton was killed in a runaway accident a few miles from Selma Monday after noon. The negro was bringing bale of cotton to this city.
 The road across the bridge over the Alabama river for several miles Is the best road in Dallas county. It is the popular driveway and every fair af- ternoon many carriages and automo- piles cross the bridge and go the length of this speedway.
 Taylor was driving a pair of frisky country mules when he left home. The journey to Selma was started and nothing interrupted until late that af- ternoon when the negro was about four miles from here,
 When the mules struck the good piece of road they picked up their gait and was leseening the distance rapid ly. But only about mile had been travelled when speeding towards the country wagon, there came an auto mobile. ,...- sight and at the appearance. of the horseless carriage they began to balk. The old negro tried to quiet them, but his efforts intellectual and just as the automobile passed the wagon. the
 The sudden jerk made by the mules threw the old man from his seat to the road. It also threw from the wag- on the bale of cotton which fell upon the old negro as he lay upon the hard red clay road The load from the wagon gone, the mules Quickened their speed down the road towards tnls city, but they were soon stopped by some negroes who were on their way back to their country homes. Later this party of negroes found i Joe Taylor and his bale of cotton in the road. The cotton was again load ed on the wagon and the old man help ed in. As he was suffering some from his fall he was taken to an infirmary after he reached here.
 There he received medical treatment and as he appeared not to be suffering the next day was allowed to return to his home near Benton.
 After reaching home, the pains which he had first suffered with again struck the old negro and never leIt him until his death Monday afternoon

FUTURE POLICIES IN HAWAII.

The coming of Governor Carter ac-
companied by Secretary Of Commerce
and Labor Straus and Congressman
and Mrs Iongworh will undoubtedly
set things moving in an official as well
as social way
Hardly less important than the In
structlon and entertainment Of Secre'
tary Straus will be the message which
Governor Carter will have for the Ter
ntory, the transfer of a@uthority to
the new Governor and his message to
the people
The silence that has prevailed
awaiting the arrival Of Governor Car
ter has been somewhat remarkable. IT
has the appearance that nothing VIII
be decided until he comes on the
scene and gives the directions re-
celyed fresh from Washington. II also
suggests that the people will be taken
into account after the official orders
have been issued.
Appearances are sometimes deceit
full It may be quite as probable that
the new Governor Is waiting I'll the
old Governor is out of the way before
he begins to really deal with the sub
ioct in hand; that he has his plans al
ready made, having gone over them
IN quiet conference with those states
men Of the innor circle who have these
many years looked wise and impressed
the community
In any event the next few weeks
will have an important bearing on the
future of these islands.
During the next month It Will be
demonstrated whether the government
of the Hawaiian Islands Is Territorial
in name and q Vlceroyalty In fact. It
will give an opportunity for the in.
coming Governor to prove whether he
cOntemplates administering his Office
for the benefit Of the American people
Of Hawaii and the mainland or in the
interests Of few and under orders
These matters are vital to the IN.
ture of Hawaii. 1t will determine
whether the administration Is to do
nothing or something; whether the
Territory will go forward as an Amer
lean Territory or the people must fight
for their rights.
It will be extraordinary If the latter
policy prevails.
