noRr ARsUnprrrrs.

The Advertiser In an editorial yes terday called attention to some of the absurdities of the two ane one-haIf cent passenger rate bill. The action of the Legislature In passing that bill in the shape in which 1t was passed by both Houses clearly demonstrates that there. are some of the details of rail- roading with which the members are not thoroughly conversant. For in- stance. no one is required to have a ticket in order to ride on train under the law as it passed both Houses. It is manifest that the railroad compan- ies will discharge ther gate-keepers at stations like Montgomery and Birm- ingham, for the reason that there will be no way under that bill by which gate-keeper could prevent any per. son who exhibited as much as two cents and claimed that he wanted to go to a point one mile distant from enter ing the gates and getting aboard the train.
 Confusion and pandemonium are pre- dicted. and on some occasions it will De
 
 extremely hazardous to travel. Under the law, at a time of heavy travel like Mardi Gras. the pick-pocket and the sneak thief can exhibit enough money to indicate that he Is able to pay his fare to a given point at which the train may be scheduled to stop, and enter the car shed, get aboard train, pick the pockets of messengers in the crowd and go out of the car shed without making any trip at all. He can repeat this performances indefinitely visiting and going aboard every train that may arrive at the station. Practical rail- road men in this and all other States, have many years ago reached the con clusion that 1t was unsafe to the trav- cling public to permit anybody and everybody to enter the cars indiscrimi- nately without purchasing a ticket to some point.
 It is to be deplored that the com mittees of this Legislature do not so- licit technical information from those who are experts in the business. On the contrary, there seems to be a dis position to discourage hearings before committees. Under previous admins trations. it has been not at all unus- ual for Legislators to invite men to come before committees to explain mat ters with which the members of the committee were not familiar. and our forefathers have enacted many wise laws, carefully and skillfully fram- cd.

Reign of the Demagosue.

Snemeld Stanoaru
 In view of the drastic Legislation now being enacted against railroads, Judge Austill would as well abandon, for the time being, the construction of the proposed Mobile and West Ala bama Railroad, a trunk line projected from Mobile to Sheffield. It would be worse than folly to attempt to Interest foreign capital in railroad construction in Alabama, with a Governor and Leg islature committed. in advance, to a policy of hostility to the roads.
 From present indications the state will suffer inca]culable injury from the work of the present Legislature. is that It's foolish work may be un- done by the courts However that may be, we may not expect capital to seek investment in a locality where the law stands ready to throttle 1t at any moment.
 Alabama has never before enjoyed an era of prosperity and industrial de- velopment equal to that of the present time. The farmers are prosperous and making money; labor of all kinds has employment; tradesmen are doing well; the big industrial plants are running on full time, and everybody is happy and contented. Nevertheless, we are cursed with a Governor and Leglsla- ture who are bent on demoralizing business and driving capital out of the State. It Is. indeed, a lamentable state of affairs, and one that should arouse the people to action. Public sentiment should call a halt on the in- solent, reckless gang now holding forth at Montgomery.

posing that the words 'admfnistration measure" is enough to put bill through, no matter how iil-considered. ill-tempered and injurious 1t may be? The fact that 1t was put in Demo-
 cratic platform need not be used as an argument by those who resent the ad- ministration whip. for that platform was not seen or heard by more than q handful of the men in the Convention that adopted 1t. The word went out that 1t was what was wanted by the Governor-elect and that was enough.

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1907.
THE BILL SHOULD PASS.


 A bill has passed the House. and is now before the Senate, which should pass that body without opposition. We refer to the bill to exempt from taxa ton the property of all ex-Confederate soldiers whose taxable property is as- sessed at not more than $2,Ooo-the amount, in other words. of homestead exemption from levy and sale.
 This much the State can and should do for the old soldiers. They are few In number and their ranks are being depleted every day with pitiful rapid ity. Soon there will be none left to represent an army that has had few equals, and no superior. in history. They are dropping of on. every side, and those who are yet here will not appeal for justice many years longer. Most of them are poor, and taxation Is Q burden to them which should be re- moved. It can be done without put ting the State to any insurmountable fnconvenience.
 Alabama, we must say, has been niggardly towards the old Confeder- ates. Perhaps the State has not been that what 1t has done and is doing is not on a scale commensurate with the. name and position of the State.
 Alabama lawmakers have in the past voted to exempt millions of dol lars worth of mill, factory and other 5osrsa maw4wr kxalr a-sv. ria porations. from taxation. and shall naeIabers now hold back and refuse to do what is only simple justice to the veterans? The amount of revenue could be easily made up by subjecting exempted cotton mill property to taxa fion. The limit of time on that line has about expired. If any revenue is lost by this slight favor to the Con- E Eederate survivors, the people of the State will never grumble or condemn thcse who vote to remove the tax:
 Let each Senator look around at his own home and he will see just few old veterans whose grey hairs and bowed forms prove that their time is drawing to a close. Let the Senators eontemplate this remnant of glorious sc1diery and ask themselves if 1t is not right and just and grateful to relieve them of the burdens of taxation during the few years left them. To vote for the Dill will not only give to them the answer of good conscience, but will earn for them the approval of their fellow citizens of Alabama, who are ready to approve such a just and req sonable act for the benefit of the re- snaining wearers of the grey.
