SENATOR MORGAN EXTENDS
 THANKS TOIEGISLATURE

cofding to custom, and address the Ala bama Legislature In his letter to Judge Chiffon. the Senator thanks Sen ator Lusk for his kindly interest In the matter. The whole Senate. as well as the House, united in passing the res olution.
 The letter of senator Morgan in full follows:
 washington, D. C., Jan. 14. 1907.
 Dear Judge ;--srnator Pettus has had conference with me respecting our presence pt Montgomery when the election for Senators will be made. and we concluded that one of us could not well attend. leaving the orer on duty here. N
 'The pressure of legislative and other business in which Alabama IS specially interested, was never so great as 1t Is now, within my. recollection. and we arc both on committees of great importance.
 We could get pairs in voting, but we are here for work, and should not neglect 1t.
 There has been no occasion in the history of Alabama that has afforded two of It's public servants the oppor- tunity now offered tt express jointly their gratitude to the people and the General Assembly fer the long contin- ued manifestation of tneir confidence and support In the services of the State in the Senate of the United States.
 "To attempt to pay this debt of grat- itude in person and in presence of the General Assembly, wound be the most gratifying eevnt that could occur in the lives of my greas colleague and myself: but we hope that the call of duty to the State that makes our pres ence in Washington imperative, will be regarded as sufficient reason, to ex- cuse our absence from Montgomery when the election of senators will oc- cur,
 Please mention this matter to MT. Lusls. and thank him for me for the kindly interest that induces him to of- fer the resolution mentioned in your letter of the iith inst.
 sincerely yours,
 "John T. Morgan"
 Senator Morgan and Senator Pettus will be reelected to the Senate at joint session to be held at noon Tues day.

TRIP TO JAMESTOWN
SECOND REGIMENT, A. N. G. MAN
 GO TO EXPOSITION.
Colonel Briclxen Has Received An bn' vitatian And Thinks Prospects For The Command to At
 tend Are Bright.

The End Regiment of Infantry Ala bama National Guard, may go to the Jamestown Exposition, which begins in Virginia this spring ana lasts into the fall. Colonel C. R. Bricken, command ing the regiment, has received an in- vitation from the exposition authori- ties expressing a welcome to the troops if they can come and colonel Bricken said yesterday that the prospects seem very bright now for the regiment to attend.
 'The exposition people will defray neither transportation nor subsistence they give us grounds and comfortable quarters, we must do the rest" said colonel Brieken yesterday. Tt Is the purpose to secure contributions from the members of the regiment to de- fray our transportation and subsls- tence while there and, at our regular encampment next sumsner I can't see why we should have any difficulty In getting at least 45o men to contribute say St each for this purpose. "Neither the State nor the govern ment can be called upon for these ex- penses. The government only pays such expenses when the troops are called out at the order of the govern ment If we go, 1t will probably he about August 1. and as said the pros- poets are bright"
 Colonel Bricken also alluded to an innovation which he intends bringing about for the good of the regiment and with the approval of the men. It is his idea to improve the equipment of the command and, to do so, the soldiers at the encampment year from next summer will be asked to donate their pay from the government toward the pItrch SO of tha eOuipment
 The way it seems beor," said the col onel would be for the men to have their pay at the coming encampment but, at the 1908 encampment, we should do something to improve our equip
