Wants Care for Livinx..

Senator McWhorter reluctantly cp- posed the measure. He was too young himself to share with hls two brothers the honor of serving in the Confeder- ate Army But he objected to the b.ll because the State was not in his opinion giving sufficient care to the living. In his opinion the duty cf car ing for the memory of the honored dead could be safely entrusted to the descendants of the Confederate sci- diers at some future session of the Legislature.
 The bill was then passed. ten votes being cast against 1t.
 Senator Strother called up his bill l creating a commission to arrange for the celebration of the tooth anniver- sary of the battle of Horse. Shoe Bend on March 27. 1914.
 The commission created by the Stroth- CT Bill Is to be named by the Governor. its purpose is to look forward into. the future and plan a suitable celebration of the battle in which Gen. Jackson defeated the Creeks. and by whicH the white man was secured the privilege of settling what Is now the State of Alabama.
 To round out and complete it's his- torical work, the Senate passed the bill establishing a State Monument Com mission to have charge of the general progressive work of monument build ing which will be followed in the years to come by Alabama. The bill was called up by Senator Spragins. It carries only a small appropr at n of $1, 900 a year Tor clerical hire. which may be expended in the discretion of the Governor.
 Ire Commission is to consist of She Governor, the Directors of the State Department of Archives and History and eight Confederate Veterans Veterans who who fought Tn the eight great battles of the war.
 The bill, which had already passed the House. was passed in the Senate without opposition.
 passed the bill which increased the pay of the clerk in the office of Adjutant General from $1,000 to $1.200 annually. His statement that this State employe not raised by the Legislature at the winter session carried great weight with his fellow Senators.
 Senator King had passed the bill cons, in the so-called live bird" shoots in Alabama.
 After considerable trouble Senator Gum, of Clarke. had passed the. bill drink on a passenger coach in the pres, ence of the passengers. This does not apply to dining. cars
 The bill establishing of free libra ries in connection with the public schools was passed at the request of Senator Blackmon.
 Bills amending the charter of the Boys Industrial School at East Lake, and of the Girls Industrial School at Montevallo. were passed during the general rush of bills. Senator Lusk succeeded in having passed the bill which appropriates S25.OOO for the ex- pense of the Legislature.
 Senator Horton had passed the bilr which makes every Confederate pen sioner a first-class pensioner when he gets above eighty years of age. and he will receive pay as a first-class pen sioner. if he is on the pension rolls. regardless of the nature of his disa- bility.
 The bill prohibiting Justices of the Peace who are lawyers from appearins in any case in which they drew the original warrant was passed.

T ask leave to call up bill which is general in it's nature-the bill to erect the statue of Senator Morgan in the National Hall of Statuary at Wash ington," said Senator Reese. T only submit that If this bill is not passed today. 1t will be the end of 1t. Will you allow the bll to die?"
 Leave" Lea, ,e," the Senators called out and the bill was put on its pas- sage.
 Before the vote was taken Senator McWhorter said:
 "As understand 1t, this statue will fill the last niche in Statuary Hall. We should think carefully what we are doing. I have an exalted admiration for the genius of the distinguished d Senator from Alabama. recently de- s. Houston of Limestone County. be- cause of his own splendid service to his State and to his people should be honorcd.
 The bill however. was passed with out dissenting vote. Monument Commipsion Hill. By another appeal Co the patriotism of the Senators, Senator Thomas got before the Senate the general Monu- ment Commission bill. The bill. he ex- plained, set into motion a general State policy of erecting monuments on the battlefields on which the soldiers of Alabama fought during the war be- tween the StatSs.
 The bill provided that the State should undertake the work through Monument Commission. which is ere ated by a House bill. It authorizes the commission to spend $25,000 on monu- merts in each of the National Military Parks at Gettysburg, Shiloh. Vicks- burg and Chickamauga. The commits sion under the terms of the bill ran also expend $10,OO0 for the erection of monuments in places other than na- tional military parks. The appropriation carried by the bill are subject to the order of the Governor and are to be paid out only when the Governor thinks the State Treasury Is able to withstand the drafts contained in the bill.
 Senator Lusk said he regretted lie would be compelled to vote against any measure which sought to honor | in which his own ancestors claimed part. But the living. he said. had | not yet been cared for What the State was now giving them was a mere pitt tance Nor had the State adequately provided for the education of the de- scendants of those Confederate scl- diers.
 Senator Thomas spoke eloquently for the bill The living Confederate sol- diers were themselves sensitive over | the indifference of the State to the deadS of the Confectionery. The bill embraced a progressive policy of mon- ument building and history preservs- | ton.

Gathering Divorce Statistics

James B. Kitch of the census bureau has arrived in Arizona to gather data regarding divorees which have been granted by the district courts in the various counties in the last twenty years. This is comparatively new
 field of inquiry by the bureau. Several months ago Clerk Dnnlcyy of the dis triet court at Phoenix, received an in- quiry from the bureau if he would un- dertake to furnish the information desired at ? stated fee per case. He replied that he would do so, but when he informed the bureau that there had been about ,i00 cases it was decided that the divorce l,usiness of Maricopa county would warrant the sending of special agent here. MT. Kitch has been going over the records of the northern count ies and when he concludes his work in Phoenix he will go into the counties of the south. The statistics covering divorees granted or denied in Gila and Graham counties during the 20-year period has been supplied by the local clerks. In Gila county about l90 pc titions for divorce were adiudicated since 1887.

THE HAYWOOD TRIAL THIcKENs

The trial of w. D. Haywood for con spiracy to murder Ex-Governor Steun- enberg of Idaho is, as might have been expected, resolving itself into hearing of the issue arising between the West ern Federation of Miners and the mine owners association during the pro. longed strike of the Colorado miners.
 The public has never been able to agree upon a verdict as between the miners union and the mine owners in that bloody and destructive struggle. Attorneys in the present case at Boise must shed more light on that conflict than has ever before been given it., or there will be seant prospect of an agreement by the Haywood jury.
 In truth it is not at all likely that all the right or all the wrong belongs on either side in the Colorado miners strike. Murder and arson marked it's progress, but the miners union has al- ways insisted that the mine owners in spired these crimes, and the employers, with equal positiveness, declared it all .tO be the result of conspiracy by the Federation. In a contest so bitter as this one, it is not in accordance with human nature to suppose that all the ofTenses were committed by either side. It is fair to assume that part of the crimes were unauthorized by the lead CTS of either side, but were the work of adventurous brigands or hotheaded en thusiasts.
 The state brought out but little evi- dence, save that of Orchard himself, to establish that a general conspiracy to murder had been formed by the officials of the Western Federation of Miners. And not alone has Orchard ruined any reputation for veracity he may have had, by confessing to almost all the con ceivable crimes, but he comes to the court in the position of man who might dicker with the state to his own profit. The defense brought out all the admissible evidence possessed by the miners organization, tending to convict the mine owners association of conspiracy to commit crimes and charge them to the miners. Thus will be pre- sented to the jury the very maze of evidence from which the people of the United States have sought in vain to fix the responsibility for the violences of Colorado 's war between capital and la bor. And as Dooley says, "there ye ar-re.D D

The Jerome Copper Belt is going after promoters in that district who make false representations in their newspaper advertisements. That s right, brother; make them stick to the truth. Pulling money out of peoples pockets by misrepresenting mining properties is in the same class with open thiev- cry. Many people who read mining ad- vertisements would not recognize what is described if they were to see it, and the fake mining promoter depends upon this ignorance for his success.

The New York Times, whose edi- torial page is model of clear typog- raphy, wonders editorially why editor ials are always set in larger type than news articles and even goes to the length of suggesting that it may be q confession that editorial pages would not be read at all if they were not a rest for the eyes, wearied by the small CT types in the news columns. This looks as if the Times editorial writers may have been taking day off, leav- ing the news editors and reporters in charge of the editorial department. They appear to have enjoyed themselves hugely in the interim.

MT. Timberlake. "has failed to disclose any modern ease from which the infer enee could be drawn that the principle of the unwriten law could be made a legal defense to homicide. At the most, it could only be taken as an extenuat- ing circumstance, reducing the act tC a lesser degree of crime
 As to the question whether the un- written law is justified on the grounds of public policy, MT. Timberlake unhes itatingiy answers "No." One of its greatest dangers from the point of view of public policy is "that the victim of the outraged slayer may have been guiltless of the offense for which he has been slain" In such a ease, says Mr Timberlake, the unwritten law 'hangs on slender thread indeed. ," The rule of evidence by which testi mony tending to disclose the innocence of the victim of the unwritten law is excluded he regards as iniquitous. One of the most vicious results of the un- written law, in MT. Timberlake s mind, is that it--
 "Makes its executioner the sole tri- bunal to judge of the guilt or innocence of him who is arraigned under it. By its terms judge and jury become one and the same, the presumption of inno- eenee is discarded, and evidence of guilt only is admitted. Here is q court of extraordinary powers, indeed-a one man tribunal having original, exclusive, and final jurisdiction, and. whose only presumption is that the prisoner at bar is guilty. The person supposed to have committed breach of the 'unwritten law is not allowed the opportunity to introduce evidence of his innocence; it is not even necessary to establish his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt The only requisite is to charge him with the offense and execute the sentence. !"
 Mr. Timberlake offers the suggestion, though without openly approving it, that it might be well for legislators so take into consideration "the question whether the present legal remedies against the encroaehment upon family purity are proportionate to the enor- mity of the offense.v Prescribing the death penalty for invading the sanctity of the home, he thinks, might go far toward removing the cause for the op- eration of the unwritten law. But with the unwritten law itself, Mr. Timber lake would make no compromise.
 Unsustained by authority and un- sanctioned by public policy, it can find no legal justification in q well preserved and perfectly organized community. !" It is refreshing to hear the voice of southern lawyer speaking out so clearly on q subject as to which there is vast deal of confused thinking and foolish sentimentality among all classes.

A soUTHERNER ON THE UNwRIT.
 TEN LAW

A sensible and temperate view of the so-called "unwritten law" is taken by n Southern lawyer, E. w. Timberlake, jr., of Wake Forest, N. C., in an ad- dress before the bar association of his State. He finds that the unwritten law has it's existence in public sentiment, rather than in recognition by the courts Judges may decry it, but juries are in
 iuenced by it, and there are few cases in which it has been invoked where the slayer of another who violated marital rights or the sanctity of the home has been convicted. Nevertheless, the law does not consider the unwritten law justification of homicide. "A careful examination into the authorities" says

KELVIN BEGINS
 A NEW ACTIVITY
The old Comp Has Taken on New Life and There Is Great Activity in the Distriet-New Mines Opening Up and Prospects Are Very Bright.

Louis Melczcr of the firm of Melc- ger Brothers of Phoenix has returned from Kelvin, where he has been look ing after business interests, and speaks enthusiastically of the business being done in and around Kelvin, and the prospects for still further development.
 He says that the locality is more than prosperous-it is booming. With the development of old mines and the loca- tion of promising new ones, the town is making great strides commercially. Property sells rapidly at good figures and the town is constantly growing.
 The mines, of course, constitute the main sources of dependence for the town, and they are, or promise to be, among the best in the territory. Of these, the chief is the property of the Ray Copper company, which has at. tracted so much attention lately.
 Of almost equal importance is the Saddle Mountain mine, which has a ledge of high grade ore. The owners estimate the orc in sight to be worth approximately $2,000,00
 Other promising mining properties are those of the Troy Mining company, the Ewen claims, the Charles Snyder prop critics and the Mckee claims. In the latter claims, three in number, Melczer has purchased half interest, says the Gazette. They have one fiftyfoot and one forty-foot shaft, all in ore, and sew eral other prospects of minor import ancc. The ore is very rich, running 32 per cent copper and heavy in gold and silver. It also contains iron euprites and sulphides, for which the smelters pay premium, therefore materially reducing the cost of smelting
 Experts say that these claims are among the richest of the region, since they began work on four-ineh ledge, and it has already widened to four feet.

A we'll known Brooklyn preacher says that, so far from the country having greater men than formerly, it is far truer to say that "all the people are becoming so great that it is hard to see the trees for forest that is a thick Eden of beauty and delight" It prob ably IS true that the leveling-up process of democracy is lessening the relative height of the peaks-viewed on the val Icy side; but men even now long for the emergence of leaders who spring straight from the level plain or plateau and rise abruptly toward the skies. The raising of the average intelligence will never eliminate genius.
