 While the whole of Alabama Is. mourning for. the 5, Hon, John Tyler Morgan, I think 1t is only appropriate and proper that the State should erect a monument to such a grand old man and statesman. one who had no peer as a soldier, statesman and honorable man in defense of lis dear Southland
 And T suggest It this monument be placed in the Capital City on Court Square, where the 1ountain now stands and that when the Legislature reconvepes it should make. a handsome appropriation for that purpose.
 No one in the. whole history of Ala bama is more deserving. of this testi- monial than our late beloved Sena-, tor. c. H. Beale.

Tt was in post. bellum affairs that the marked ability of this man was most conspicuous. As leader in na- tional matters. the constant and un- wavering consideration which he gave to all that would add to the glory and renown of his country was most noted. and won the plaudits of the world. Rigid in his construction of his duty, immovable when his line of action was decided on uncorrupted and incorrupt- ible, he died with character as pure as the snow and reputation without flaw or stain. He stands out the most conspicuous figure of his day and en- joyed the confidence and esteem of all his friends and his enemies alike. To the youth of the entire country. North and South, his noble life may be held up for emulation; and ''to be like Nor gan in character or action may be re- garded as the highest honor known to man"

Editor The Advertiser:
 Tn Statuary Hall in the Capitol at Washington each State is allowed to place two statues of it's most promi- nent men. Let Alabama be up and do-a ing-hasten to place ltfe-size statue of John Tyler Morgan. made of Ala bama marble, chfseled by an Ala bama sculptor, Monette.
 John T Morgan has been prominent in the old Capitol for over thirty years, and now that he has been removed tnerefrom only by a just and allwise Providence, let Alabama crown his efforts for his people with just trib- ute. Has Alabama, ever had a greater fnans thant J. 1T. Morgan? Can she ever have?
 Although the bent Gorm,. keen eye and eyer ready wit and wisdom will be missed, let us place the marble form there. ,that those younger and yet ambitious. may draw inspiration

Paymaster Will Locate Here.

F. Mckay, paymaster for the
prairie extension of the Northern
Pacific, spent several days in
the city this week from Culdesac
and while here rented a suite of
rooms in the new Goldstone
building from A. J. Payne for a
year. Mr.. Mckay has been
making his headquarters at Cul-
desac but intends moving his
family to this place about April
1st to reside and will have his
office in one of the rooms rented
here. He stated that about 20
men would arrive here soon to
work at this point and perhaps
80 or 40 more would come in
later. In speaking of the pro-
gress being made by the con-
tractors Mr.. Mckay said he did
not think the road would be
sufficiently completed to allow
the regular running of trains
from Grangeville to Culdesac
this year, although the cars
might get as far as this place.

it is doubtful if he will recover.
George Manley, the electrician
who fell from a telephone pole
in Genesee last August and suf-

Report comes from Coeur
d'Alene that the Weyerhause
syndicate will commence this
season the erection of a sawmill
near Occur d'Alene which when
completed will be the largest in
the world. The plant will cost
over a million dollars, and it is
estimated that the company has
sufficient holdings to keep the
mill a running for fifty years.
Lucy Allen, the notorious Nez
Perce squaw who was recently
under arrest charged with the
murder of Henry Carsow during
a drunken brawl at her home,
was married this week to Levi

Start Another
Stage Line
Hayden and Higdon Will Put on
Line From Cottonwood to Gull
desac Next Month, Making the
Fifth Line for this Place.

Cottonwood is soon to have
another stage line, which will be
started by Messrs. Higdon and
Hayden and will run from this
place by way of Ferdinand, Ilo
and Kippen to Culdesac. The
new line will be formally opened
on April 18th and as it will open
an entirely new country it will
not effect any of the present
lines except that it may divert
some of the travel now going up
the river to Grangeville. 1t is
the intention of the proprietors
of the line to install a daily
service from each end of the line
and everything possible will be
done to make the service as good
as any in the country. Both
men are old hands at the bust
ness and know what is required
of them. Mr.. Hayden was
formerly in partnership with
John Wilkes in the Sites
Grangeville line, while Mr.. Hig-
don for several years operated
the Stites-Elk City stage line,
selling out his interests there
only a short time since. Both
gentlemen are now out securing
rigs and horses for the new line
and will have everything in
shape to start up at the time
stated.
This line is bound to prove OF
material advantage to Cotton.

Many Real
Estate Deals
Sam GOldstOne Sells the Former
Gerding Farm for $1O,OOO---
Several Deals Reported by Lo-
cal Real Estate Men.

While in Lewiston this week
Sam Goldstone sold to A. E.
Clarke, son-in-law of ]. P.
Vollmer, his 28O-acrs farm north
of town for $4,000, or a little
better than $40 an acre for the
entire tract. The land sold con-
sisted of the former Ben Gerding
place and 80 acres of the Gibbons
place adjoining and was one Of the
finest farms in the country. AS
the land lies near to several other
farms owned by Mr.. Vollmer it
is easily seen why Mr.. Clarke
acquired it, but while the price
paid is a nice one it only goes to
show that Camas Prairie soil is
getting up to its real value, as
compared with other localities,
and can never be purchased
again at the rediculously low
prices of a few years ago.

0. P. Calvin, George Randall
and Thomas Bolin and son mar
rowly escaped drowning in the
Big Eddy in the Clearwater last
week while taking a raft of logs
down to Lewiston. The raft got
into the eddy and before the

The raft soon came up under
them, however, and they man
aged to get out into the current
without further danger.
The little son of Mr.. and Mrs.

HUGE PILE FOR
OCEAN GREYHOUNDS

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-There is

Cunard line in reaching out for the
ocean record with the Lusitania.

government yearly, depends upon
the accomplishment of the feat,
The record of the fastest trip Is
now held by the Kaiser Wilhelm
II, Capt. o. Cuppers, of the North
German Lloyd line. Capt. Cuppers
brought the big German flyer
across in the summer of 1904 at
an average speed of 1858 knots an
hour. This mark was made over
the southern or longer route, which
makesh it all the more difficult to
equal.
Not in years has so much inter
est been shown in the efforts Of
the various steamship companies
to take the record. The Germans
are predicting that the Kaiser Will
helm will hold the honor, at least
until next summer They base this
belief on the fact that the rough

dictments When the two former
supervisors got an inkling of what
Heney intended to do they made
rush for his Office, supposedly to
inform him they had changed their
minds and would testify. But He
neys door was locked to them.
BY his masterful maneuvering
Heney has had his witnesses at
finger tips end all through the
trials of the grafters. If one of
them tries to kick over the traces
he quickly whips them into line
again. 1t is believed his action in
the cases of Wilson and Coffey will
have a lasting erect on the other
boodling ex-supervisOrs, and also
on one Abraham Ruef, who has
been convicted, but not sentenced,
and whose testimony will be want
ed in the cases of Pat Calhoun and
other of the big offenders.
Ruef knows if he gets balky he
ney will implore the court to give
him the limit in sentence. If he
behaves nicely Heney may ask that
his sentence be moderated in re-
turn for value received.

LAUNDRY TRUST
HAS FIGHT ON

Winning opposition to the local
laundry trust is now assured. The
money necessary TO establish a
union laundry has been guaranteed.
James Stevenson said today that
he could sell the stock needed to
float the entire proposition among
local union men several times
over. The laundry trust will be
compelled to fight for its life in
the near future and will also be
forced to consider the working con-
ditions of its employees, something
Il has refused to do in the past.
This change in affairs will be
brought about by the devotion OF
local union men to principle and
a determination TO compel the
trust to grant relief TO the working
women and girls employed in the
local laundries.
According to statements made
today the trustees of the new en-
terprise will build a building suit
able for laundry purposes on the
river. 1t is known that they have
an option on an ideal site and it is
likely they will commence con-
struction work in the near future.
Some delay is necessary owing
to the fact that many details have
to be arranged and a final account
ing made with the temporary Of
ficers. When this is attended to
the project will be pushed to COM
pletion as rapidly as possible.
The trustees do not fear they
will have any difficulty in securing
machinery and supplies. The trust
has done everything to corner the
supply of machinery and supplies
of the country and has an agree
ment with the big machinery man
ufacturers of the country to keep
Independent laundries from secur-
ing equipment and supplies, but
the International Laundry Work
ers' union has informed local union
men that it stands ready to furnish
any machinery and supplies neces-
sary for the local enterprise.
The local Carpenters union has
voted TO take $500 worth of stock
in the union laundry enterprise in
addition to what the union has
purchased previously. Federal
union 1922 also increased its
holdings by $50 at its last meeting.

"JUST BEGUN" SAYS HENEY

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. Sal
though indictments are still falling
like hailstones, Francis j. Heney
has not yet arrived at the point
where he has ceased declaring I've
just begun"
He is now looking up the jury
that disagreed in the Ford case
and the grand jury will be called
to investigate suspicion that graft
money found its way into the peck
cts of some of these jurymen.
There is a strong call of the
north for Heney he being wanted
in Portland to proceed with the
prosecution of the land thieves.
But I've got lot of work to do
in San Francisco says the master
prosecutor, land l intend to do it
in a short time"
There are several very big men
in California that are on the an
xious seat today in fear that his
grand finale" will take them into
the net along with the other graft
els.
The batch of indictments just
returned includes at least three
big men. They are R. Porter Ashe,
prominent San Francisco attorney
and chief of staff of Patrick Cal
houn's legal forces; State Railroad
Commissioner Andrew NJ. Wilson
and Michael w. Coffey.
Ashe, together with Luther w.
Brown, Calhoun's chief detective,
and two chaffeurs. were indicted
for the kidnapping of Fremont Older,
managing editor of the Bulletin a
publication that has been fighting
the grafters all the way.
Wilson and Coffey were mem
bers of the board of supervisors
that broke the International record
for grating. Their indictment for
accepting brides is of particular i'm
portance, as they are the first ones
of the boodling board to be in
dicted.
When the supervisors went be-
fore the grand jury and testified to
receiving brides Heney made an
immunity agreement with them.
They were to give testimony when
ever necessary in order that the
prosecution could secure the con-
viction of the wealthy bride givers.
In the case of TREY l.. Ford,
general counsel of the United
R. R., Wilson and Coffey refused
to give the same testimony that
brought about F'ord's indictment
by the grand jury. 1t is under
stood they believed they had beaten
Heney at his own game, and be-
came very Independent.
But Heney spent no time trifling.
He declared the immunity con-
tract forfeited and went before the
grand jury and secured their in

DEFEND PACIFIC
SAYS SCHLEY

NEW YORK. Oct. S.-Worthy OF
more than ordinary consideration
are the views of Rear Admiral Win
field Scott Schley relative to posi-

suit of the cruise of the squadron

That the Pacific is just as much

ner in which the grizzled hero of
the sea battle of Santiago looks
upon the situation.
The admiral said:
"There is no use discussing the
cruise of the fleet to the Pacific.
That has been settled upon by the
authorities in charge of the matter,
and if there is criticism of the pro-
jected movement of the battleships
it should be confined to the United
States--it could not be tolerated
anywhere else.
THE Pacific is jus. as much our
seaboard as the Atlantic. Ships
don't improve by lying at anchor.
Long cruises, target practice, drill
and utilization of every resource
are necessary to maintain high
efficiency.
"As to the need of more battle
ships, more cruisers, bigger fleet
and greater navy my views are
pretty well known. | think every
navy man wants the biggest and
finest navy in the world for his own
country"

The testimony showed that as a

they had to do it to enable the
