GREAT srArE INsTrrUrIoN.

We are in receipt of the catalogue of i9o6-7 of the Alabama polytechnic In- stttute which shows the institution to bc in most flourishing condition. hay ing enrolled 500 students this session. The attendance represents sixty-two counties. eleven States, and three for eign countries. There are twenty-four professors and twetny-two instructors. Seven degree courses in applied sciences are offered in Civil Engineering, Min ing Engineering. Electrical Engineer ing, Mechanical Engineering, Agricult- ure and Horticulture. Chemistry and Metallurgy. Pharmacy. This is the old est technical institution in the South. and has had a steady and continuous growth in the line of technological work for the last thirty-five years. We note the cuts of the handsome buildings and especially the new Engineering Hall, which ha been constructed this year. This is commodious three story building 92x60 feet ana is fitted with all modern appliances for engineering. drawing, etc. The Department of Min- ing Engineering has been notably strengthened The enrollment in the Engineering Department has been unus- ually large-Mining Engineering thirty two; Civil Engineering forty-one; Me chanical Engineering. ninety-one; Elee- trical Engineering 10f.
 These departments have gained dist inction for the institution and they have been largely expanded and more thor oughtly equipped for the increased att tendance. Chemistry and Pharmacy arc also emphasized to a marked degree; at- tendance in Pharmacy this year reaches the high water mark of forty, and Chemistry, 245. The work in agricult- ure and related subjects has been greatly broadened. A three-year course in Veterinary Medicine leading to the, degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medi- cine is offered for the first time fin the history of any Southern institution. Full courses are offered in Bacteriology, Bi- ology. and Physiology, under the charge of separate professors. A new chair of Entomology has also been established, and is proving very valuable in the study of insects injurious to crops, or- chards, forests. shade trees. etc.
 The distinctive feature of the work of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute Is that of practical sciences pertaining to the industrial development of the State In all of it's phases-mining opera tions, railroad building. architecture, electrical plants, mechanical plants, horticulture, animal industry, agricult- ure, etc, and the growth of the col lege seems to keep pace with the growth of Alabama. The State makes no mis- take in aiding to enlarge the facilities of this great institution.

Hearst Snarls At Bryan.

nashville American.
 MT BSyan's complimentary refer ences to MT. Hearst and his Independ- ence League are not reciprocated by Willie. In response here is what his New York newspaper says:
 The Democratic party was radical Tn l9OC, conservative in 1904, and now sits stiff and motionless apparently holding its breath lest some word or action will alienate either the radical or the conservative element. It is hard to define the principles Of party which is first for radicalism, then for conservatism, and then for compro- mise.
 And what is its organization? It is led in the House of Representatives by a railroad lawyer and in the National Senate by a convicted agent of the Standard Oil Trust. and is represent ed by a professional gambling house keeper as Chairman of its National Committee.
 It is represented in New York by race-track gamblers and ballot box suffers and fraudulent officeholders."
 There are some persons of limited in formation in the South who have an impression that Hearst is a Democrat. Hearst himself does not pretend to be Democrat. He never was one, and he threw off his mask after he was defeated for Governor of New York last year. Hearst has attacked ard abused nearly every prominent Demo- crat in the country. He was merely a Democrat for office.

 Kealizing that the time of his de- nartI,re for the happy hunting grounds is epproaching, old Red Cloud, famous chief of the Sioux Indians, has issued a farewell message that is full Of pa thetic appeal to the white peopie to be good to the poor Indian.

NOT A WISE MOVEMENT.

Much has been recently said of a pro- posed measure to force insurance com panies in Alabama to invest 75 per cent of premiums received In Alabama in this State. That sounds very well, but how will it work. There is a similar law in Texas. and the companies are preparing to withdraw from the State. The companies which have indicated their purpose to withdraw paid the State of Texas last year nearly $200, 900 in taxes, and their retirement means not only the loss of a vast revenue to the State, but the withdrawal of millions of capital; for, while many of the com panies have been Ioaning money to cit izens of Texas and investing in Texas enterprises, none vii do so after their retirement
 Do we want to see a similar condition here. It will be seen if the proposed bill is ever made into law. Some of the largest and safest companies have laws for their government which would forbid any such investment of their funds.
 We have many staunch. substantial citizens of Alabama whose lives have been devoted to the insurance business, who would be broken up if this sort of legislation is ever entered upon. They have induced their companies to loan many millions of dollars in Alabama, and in addition to being put out of bus mess themselves, they would have to force borrowers to settle up on short notice.
 There is some talk that this sort of Legislation would help Alabama tnsur- anee companies, now in existence or to be formed. Idle and foolish thought Is it to be presumed for one moment that other States, without such require ments, would not adopt retaliatory leg islation and force Alabama companies to depend upon insuring Alabama peo- pie and none others. No company would live long If thus restricted.

DRIVING AWAY MONEY.

The people of this State have not reached that point where they are ready to endorse any and everything that looks like an attack upon men or cor porations having money to invest. Ala bama is a great State from the stand point of having great mineral, timber and agricultural advantages, greater, perhaps, than any other State in the Union. Alabama, however, in spite of this, ifs only in a formative condition and cannot go forward depending only on the amount of capital that can be invested in enterprises by her own peo- pie.
 Money is sought after in too many States to warrant the State of Alabama, in putting up barriers to its entry into this State The recent act of the Leg islature in putting additional taxation upon foreign capital loaned in this State, will paralyze many great indus tries. It stands to reason that men will not let their money come under heavy taxation when neighboring States are bidding clamorously TOT 1t. There are many perfectly safe and sound State and municipal bonds bearing 4 and 5 per cent net in which to place their money, and this will be done rather than submit to the exactions of the Ala bama law.
 We know of one instance where & company which has more than a mill lion of dollars loaned in Alabama, turn ed down a splendid offer for a large sum of nancy no longer ago than last Saturday. It was because of this new law. Not only this. but the officers of the company have directed their repre- sentatives to make no more loans and propose to prepare to collect, as soon as. due, every dollar that is owing. Now, who will this law hurt when this takes place? The company will have no trou- ble in placing its money elsewhere. Where will the farmers who have bor- rowed this money at say per cent, be able to get enough to pay off the loan? It is hurting the farmer, thousands of whom borrow money and any additional taxation put upon money lenders will, in the end, be paid by the borrower. That is the rule the world over.
 This law ought to be repealed, and if the Legislature is wise, one of its first acts will be to v- pc it off the books
