QUESTIONS RIGHT
UNITED STATES EXPRESS COM l PANY RAISES POINT.
Says Legislature Has No Right to Reg
 ulate Powers of Seven Direct ors of the Com
 af many.

Albany, N Y, Nov. t11--Albert. Board man, representing the United States Express Company before the Public Service Commission, in the Second Dis trict today. questioned the right of the Legislature to regulate the powers of the seven directors of the company, a joint stock corporation.
 He contended that the duties of the Board are prescribed in the articles oF the Association. Briefs on this and other questions involved are to- be submitted to the Commission within thirty days. The question was raised by Mir. Boardman at the beginning of the hearing. This hearing was request ed by certain shareholders in the Unit ed States Express Company who claims to represent more than ione-half of the stock. and who ask that the commits sion determine the adytsabiHty of rec ommending to the Legislature certain amendments to the law relating to joint stock companies conducting the business of common carriers. so as to bring about the election of directors when desired bv a majority of the shareholders.
 Attorneys for the petitioners said the Board of Directors of the express com pany was a. self-perpetuating body: that no meeting Of stockholders has been held since 1862; that although the
 
 by a majority of the shareholders to call a meeting of the Shareholders to the election of directors, 1t refused to do so: that the United States Express Company is controlled by the Adams and American Express Companies and that neither one of the last two com panies had had a meeting of stock holders in years for the purpose of etacting officers.
 Kremer also brought out that seven directors of the United States Company are being paid S3,000. a year for serving as directors, United States Senator T. c. Platt, who is also president, receiv- ing. an annual salary of $25,000; H. Crosby is Vice-President and Secretary at an annual salary of S20,00O; D. IT. Fiatt, Treasurer, for wlfcn he receives annually $1S,000; F. H. Platt, who is counsel to the company; Francis Lyme Stetson. L. c. .eWeir and J. c. Fargo.
 Chairman Stevens referred to one sec- tion of the articles of the association which provides that no director of the U. S. Express Company shall be inter- ested in rival company.
 It was admitted by Mir. Boardman that Messrs.. Fargo and Weir are offi- cials of the American and Adams. Ex- press companies, respectively, and hold jointly 20.000 shares of stock of the United States Express Company.
 Mir. Boardman said that all three companies had community of inter- ests and insisted that unless these con- ditions existed the stock of the U. S. Express Company and the other ex- press companies would be almost worth less.t It also developed that according to the articles of association no trades of stock could be made without the con- sent of the directors and that the board had the right to dissolve the, association | if 1t saw fit.

Floral Exhibit at the Fair of 1907.
 The early morn of Tuesday the 2sth, found our party at the entrance to the EEK hibition Hall of the late successful Fair.of course as Flower Growers our first object- i've point was the Floral exhibit; more than usual interest was felt for Mrs. Charles Clark. who had charge of that Department Mrs. Clark is a very active. member of our Association, and 8 woman possessed of rare floral knowledge.
 There had been only three entries--two In the amateur class. and one in 'The Open class,' for Professional Florists only.
 Mrs. Lancaster of Wetumpka and Mrs. J.. M. Cody of Montgomery were the ame- teurs-R Rosetnont Garden or Mfr. Patterson was the only professional entry. Our at tention or I should say our admiration was cIicited by a lovely orchid, pot plant which formed the center piece to the Rose mont collection. the color of the orchid was purple deepening from delicate lilac into the darkest hues of that royal color the foliage of the plant resembled the ITS, near by was a chrysanthenum display, the flowers were very large and perfect. and on the south side was a varied collection 0f ferns most of them of the maiden-hair genus We must note lovely display Of the Norfolk island pine, their diminuttve- ness combined with their perfection caused us to wonder, and we thought what an ap- propriate decoration for the winter table and must confess Lo coiIAS oto0Pf0AHeN+N-t~ when told that they were not dwarf plants hut only children of much larger growth. It is needless to say that MT Paterson won all the premiums offered to ''The Profes- sIonai Florist
 Both of the ameteur displays were very fine. Mrs Cody contained the largest va riety. but Mrs Lancasters specimens were rnaKnificient there was a rubra begonia which reached to the roof of the Exhibition Hall. notwithstanding 1t had lost the foi- iage when passing under the Wetumpka bridge, and again when going through the Fair archway. To Mrs. Lancasters spren' rerii all invoIuntarily exclaimed grand magnificent. full collection of ferns. also Nortok Is- land nine which attracted much attention. The professional florist considered the plant very valuable. The blue ribbon was award ed to Mrs Cody as her collection contained the necessary number of specimens that the catalogue required. Mrs. Cody IS member of our Flower Growers Association and Mrs Lancaster has applied for mem bership. of course with such addition much nrs s.tioal perfection will be attained The exhibition of cut roses was on Mon dav and among them were neaut1ul bios- soms from the new varieties, The Richmoho and Killarney.
 The field grown roses called for much ad- r,tratton their; tints were lovely MT. Pat erson was the only exhibitor of cut roses.

BUSINESS INTERESTS ARE
 ENDORSING MASS MEETING

| H fr T Selma. Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee of the State; Frank F. Glass. of The Advertiser. and Jacques Loeb, of Montgomery.
 The telegrams received by President Forbes were from all portions of the State. They announced. in most in- stances. that delegations would attend. Some of the delegations are expected to be large.
 Many communities that cannot send delegates have telegraphed endorse ments of the movement, urging a strong appeal to the Legislature to call . halt. It fs realized by the great bus mess interests of the State that somc- thing must be done and done quickly to stem the tide.
 Should the meeting fall of effect, then the feeling is that careful organize tion of the entire state should be un- dertaken to prevent the return to pow CT Of men who for personal piaue or blind obedience to orders, will risk the prosperity of this great State.
