 TO CHANGE MAIL ROUTE.
Citizens Along Selma Road VIII Get
 Mail Earlier.


 Route No. 2. of the rural free deliv- cry of the Montgomery postoff1ce. will be reversed. beginning with April IS. Heretofore the many persons living on the Selma Road were compelled to wait until the carrier had delivered his mail along the Hayneville Road and had completed almost all of his circuit of over twenty-six miles before mali was delivered to them.
 With the new order of the route the people living along the Selma Road will get the first benefit of the deliv- cry. There are more people living on the Selma Road than on the Hayne- vile Road. and for this reason Post master DlmmIck recommended to the Department that the route be re- versed.
 The new route will be as follows:
 Beginning at the postoffice. south westerly on the Selma road to Cante- lou's corner. via Dexter Avenue. Mont gomery, Moulton and Bell Streets. 9.91 miles.
 Southwesterly via Gunters' road to Mt Sinai Church. northwesterly to Haynesville Road to postofice via Oak, Davis Holt Mobile. Montgomery Streets and Dexter Avenue. The total route being 26 97 miles.

ing beyond the individual needs, of
food or fur or physical exercise in
the hunt. Law and public opinion
have taught that there is credit only
in moderation. Still there is a good
deal tosbe done to maintain hunting
as sane sport. There are still
hunters who kill or MAIN human be-
ings, through sheer recklessness in
the use of the gun; and, according
to a statistician, ninety persons have
already been killed and sixty-fve
wounded this season. Looking at
this casualty list, one is inclined to
believe that. game warden right who
urges that every such gun user re-
quired to answer In court a charge
of felony. Then there is the hunter
who uses a long. range, high power
rifle, and trusts to rapid fire to make
up for the lack of good aim. He can
not be regarded a good sportsman,
for he does not give the game he
pursued a fair chance for its life.
The hunting privilege is one that leg

HE is NOT A CITIZEN.
But Chinaman Served in Uncle Sans
Navy and Has Voted for
Forty Years.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-After hav-
ing voted in New York City for thir-
ty years, and while still drawing a
pension granted him on account of
his services with Farragut during
the Civil War, William A. Hang will
not be able to vote at the coming
election. His citizenship papers
have been cancelled by a decision of
the courts, and unless the decision
is reversed Hang will no longer be
a citizen Of the country in which he
has lived for fifty years. The trou-
bic with Hang Is that he is a Chinese,
and that, under the recent acts of
Congress, he cannot be a citizen Of
the United States. Hang served as
stewart on Farragut's flagship and
in the same capacity on other ships
during the Civil War, serving from
1862 until the war ended. He draws
a pension of $12 month.

FISH AND GAME.

The Ashland Daily Commercial
publishes an editorial on the fish and
game law which we heartily endorse.
True sportsmen are waking up all
over the country to the evils of in
discriminate killing and to the ne
cessity> of more thoroughly protect
ing game. But Kentucky should en-
deavor to enforce the laws now on
the statute books. The Commercial
says:
This year has been a particularly
hard one on fish and game. The
drouth lowered the water in the
streams, almost depriving the fish
of their natural habitat and exposing
many of them to death or easy cap
ture. The fishing in many places, as
pointed out by correspondent in
a-recent letter to The Commercial.
has been wanton destruction. In the
forests the wild animals have had to
flee thu fire and have been driven,
many of them, right into the range
of the hunters guns or those who
are not hunters. Now comes the
regular hunting season when the an
imals that escaped the fire are the
legal prey of the sportsman.
Much progress has been made in
the campaign against the "game
hog" That is, the hunter who kills
Just because he can and boasts of

FIRE APPARATUS

The fire Saturday night on Hill
street totally destroyed two houses
and partially burned another. Much
of this damage would probably have
been saved if there had been a fire
station in the North end of town.
The department responded prompt
ly to the alarm but when the hose
and truck ladder wagons reached
Winn avenue the horses were nearly
used up and had to climb the hill on
a slow walk thus losing valuable
time in the early stage of the fire.
The North end is growing RAPIDLY,
more rapidly perhaps than any other
part of Winchester. And in addition
all the manufacturing plants are In
that end of the town. A strong wind
and fair start to small fire might
easily destroy that entire section of
the city.
A hose wagon could be procured
at very small expense, probably
500 or $500 would cover the entire
expenditure.
Winchester ought to have such
addition to the present apparatus
and it ought to be stationed in the
North end. The putting out of one
disastrous fire would amply repay
the city for such expenditure.
Since writing the above, several
citizens have spoken to us about the
inadequacy of Winchester's fire pro-
lection. AS one suggested, the en-
tire South end of the town might
have gone Saturday night if a fire
had broken out in the Brown-Proc-
toria or some central point The
department was all in the North end
and before it could have been
brought back, fire would have got
ten start past controlling.
We would have been compelled to
call on some Of our sister cities but
we already~know that such help
while given cheerfully usually gets
here after the damage is done.
The fire department should ask a
committee of the Council to investi-
gate the subject and the Commercial
Club ought to take the matter in
hand. 1t is only short time before
we will have to have additional APP
paratus. Why not take time by the
forelock and make provision before
the damage is done.

Points With Pride That He IL Hon.
orary Member Of Brotherhood of

What Administration Has Done For
Working Classes - Says Taft's In
Junction Decisions Have Helped
Cause Of Labor.
Washington, Oct. 26.-In response
to letter from P. H. Grace, a mem
Der of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, inquiring about Mr.. Taft's
record in respect to injunctions and
labor matters in general, President
Roosevelt has written to Mr.. Grace re-
labor and explaining the work of the
administration toward ameliorating
Industrial conditions.
President Roosevelt in his reply.
which has been made public at the
White House, calls attention to the
fact that he is an honorary member
of Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and says he is proud of the fact.
Among other things he says:
Throughout my whole term as
president, now in its eighth year.
have devoted myself with especial in
terest to the questions affecting labor.
The lasting prosperity of this country
rests upon the welfare of the wage
worker and thewelfare of the tiller of
the soil. My greatest aim and desire
have been to do all that in me lies to
advance their interest. I wish to help
them to get the best out Of their pres
ent positions; l wish to help them
make those positions permanently
better, OF permanently greater impor
lance and reward. No consideration
Of party fealty or personal friendship
would induce me to advise either farm
er or workingman to do anything that
was not for his permanent benefit.
With this fact keenly before me,
earnestly advise all workingmen, In
above all as American citizens con-
cerned in the honor and the prosper
ity Of this great free republic, to sup
port Mr.. Taft for president: just as
1 advise all farmers, business men
and men of the professions.
Il do not believe the wageworkers
Of this country have ever had better
friend in the White House than Mr..
Taft will prove to be. He has already
shown his faith by his deeds. In the
matter of the injunctions he issued
he was absolutely right, and the prin-
ciples laid down In those injunctions
have since then been accepted by
every worthy leader of labor, and they
are embodied In the principles and
practices Of all the railroad brother
hoods at the present day. The abuses
Of injunction have been fearlessly ex-
posed and attacked by Mr.. Taft. He
recognizes, as in my judgment all
fair-minded men must recognize, that
again and again in the past this pro-
cess has been used to the detriment
of wageworkers by certain judges. He
is doing and will continue to do every
thing that can be done to do away
with these abuses. He will not make
vague promises impossible of fulfill
ment He will actually and in good
faith try to secure action"
The president then goes into the de
tails of Judge Taft's record, both on
the bench and as administrator Of at
fairs In the canal zone
