 The measure Is in full as follows:
 "A bill to be entitled an act to pre- vent the exhibition of plays or pie lures illustrative of train robbery.
 Be it enacted by the Legislature or Alabama:
 Il. That any person who makes public exhibition of any play or pic- ture illustrative of train robbery. and any person, who. being the proprietor or manager of any place, house or other place of amusement or entertain ment, suffers or permits any such ex- hibition in such play house or other place of amusement or entertainment. must on conviction be fined not less than $10O nor more than $500.

DEMAND THEIR PAY
Rom wednesday,sLAdvertiser.,

From wednesday's|A dvertfser.l
There was a descent Of wild-eyed
Hawaiians. twenty-six in number. in
the office of the United States Army
Engineer yesterday morning and there
was clamoring for money to celebrate
Christmas on. But, inasmuch as pay
day does not arrive until January 1.
and because the men bad no cause to
be especially favored. having thrown
down their shovels and jumped their
jobs on the fertilization work, Captain
Orwell refused to pay them on then
and there as they demanded. Then the
army Of invasion became an army OF
occupation and settled down to a siege
Of Uncle Sans treasure chests, an
nouncing that there would be no ad-
iournment without their = Christmas
money.
A telephone message was accordingly
sent over to the police station for an
officer, who didn't know what to do
when he arrived. So far as he could
see the men were not molesting any
one nor creating any disturbance and
he had his doubts about starting a
rough house on his own account. hav-
ing had an awful example in the war
rant sworn out against Chief Taylor.
Diplomacy suggested a move TO him.
however, and he counselled with the
waiting men. advising them to go right
over to the Sheriff and put their case
in his hands. The makai nui would
see that no United States would keep
a Hawaiian out of his money. So the
whole troupe adjourned 10 the station
house, where clerk told them that
there was nothing doing.
The men had been doing concrete
work at Diamond Head and had put
in demand that their pay be raised
from dollar sixty TO two dollars per
day or pau It was pau, the men be-
ing presented with time checks and
asked to keep out of the reservation in
future They may cash their time
checks on the next regular payday.

Savings Bank investments

The Barton Monitor under its present
management has always been champion
OF the principle that Vermont money
should be kept at home to develop Yer
mont business. This has been the rule
81 the Hyde Park Savings Bank and the
Monitor, commenting on the fact. saws /:
Not so very long ago the Monitor pub
!lshed an editorial on investing money in
Vermont, saying among other things:
Invest your money in Vermont! Trade
at home! If Vermonters would carry out
these two simple rules there would be less
complaint OF high taxes, fewer of our
young men would move from the state
and the problem Of the "New Vermont
would be solved.
We are as thoroughly convinced Of this
truth today as we ever were, and the fact
that the Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust Company Of Hyde Park, c, s.
Page, president, has made it a rule since
its founding to make no investments out
side OF Vermont, that it has never lost a
dollar by poor investment, and that its
assets have just passed the million dollar
mark, all go to prove the truth of the
statement. We do not know how far
Vermont banks in general make il a rule
10 keep their money invested in the state.
but we do know that this bank has kent
It's money in Vermont, has advertised the
fact, and has had phenomenal growth.

observance. There was large atten-

followed at the Swiss village.
The afternoon feature was great mill.

The refusal OF the Montpelier union

the first instance where trouble OF that
kind has been reported. A stonecutter
serving a jail sentence for intoxication

Wants Teddy, Willy Nilly.

What should Vermont Republicans do
when the party meets in state convention
next summer to choose delegates to the
national convention? 1t should first
adopt a ringing resolution endorsing the
administration of Theodore Roosevelt and
the Roosevelt policies, and then choose
delegates to the national convention who
are Roosevelt men and enthusiastic be-
levers in the policies for which he
stands. II the rank and file get recogni-
ton in the convention, this, in our
opinion, is just what will happen. No
man who travels about the state and talks
with the voters on the farms and in the
shops can fail to be convinced that YER
mont is Roosevelt state through and
through. Teddy is good enough for us
is the general assent. II Vermont de-
clsres for any other candidate il will be
because the politicians and wirepullers
get in their work and the clear prefer
ence of the people is disregarded.-B

10000 KILLED EACH YEAR.

The Canaan, N. H., catastrophy serves
to call forth volume of comment, criti-
cism and censure on the recurrence of
such accidents, with their dreadful roll
of fatalities. The record shows that last
year over ten thousand persons lost their
lives on the railroads in the United
States. II Americans weren't the most
careless people in the world, holding
human life in the slightest esteem, there
would be something done about it.
1t is lamentably true that much Of our
railroading in this country is mere reck-
lessness. The whole system works
under the high pressure that everything
suffers from here. There is no taking
things coolly. From the president in his
Office, who keeps things On the keen
jump like the central figure in "The
Lion and the Mouse,'' to the section
hand, who takes chance on waiting to
drive the last spike in new tie until the
coming train is right at hand, everything
is on the hustle. Not how well, but how
much, is the measure of service. Haste
makes waste. Instead of thoroughness,
we get things slipshod as the result. The
tracks, the rolling stock, the whole outfit
