THE REPUBLICAN PANIC

On the panic question he said:
We have had three panics since
1860, and all three OF them came
under high tariff, and two of them
under Republican pres dents. The
panic OF 70 came under the morrill,
high tariff; the panic of SO under
Mckinley high tariff-a year before
that law was repealed. The panic
.of 1907 came under the Dingley
high tariff Here we have every
panic in the last forty-eight years
coming while a high tariff law was
in force The tariff Is a panic breed
er and those who favor a high tar
In are impotent TO protect their
country from business depression.
Statistics show there were more
business failures the first nine
months Of this year than there we're
the first nine months of 1893 or
the first nine months OF 1894. The
failures we're greater during the
first nine months of this year under
the Dingley high tarIf than they
we're In 1895 or 1896 under the
Wilson bill And yet, I'm spite OF
this record, Mr.. Taft has the audac-
lty to threaten a panic II salaries
arc Withdrawn from Republican of
fico holders.
1T is time for the Republican
leaders 20 explain why these panics
have come under the highest tariff
rates this country has ever known.
The only assurance OF permanent
and universal prosperity is 70 be
found In the Democratic policies
which are the redu,1.on of taxation,
the lowering of the tariff, the pre-
vention OF the trusts, the reconcll-
iation of labor and capital. and the
protection Of deposits. Upon tn s
foundation, prosperity can return,
and returning, can remain"

 A man, supposedly a negro late Monday night made futile attemps to enter the residence of B. J. Well 542 South Lawrence Street.
 The negro, elumsly attempting to force his way into the house by a back window. made so much noise that the attention of the members of the house hold was attracted. An alarm was Immediately sent in 10 police heao- quarters. and two mounted officers were promptly dispatched to the scene of the attempted burglary The ar. rival of the officers so disconcerted the nocturnal visitor that he gave up hts plan of illegal visitation, and with de- cided lack of ceremony and unsurpas- sable celebrity fitted, into the darkness that knows no electric lights.
 The opinioa was expressed that hao the officers arrived upon the scene lit. tie less speedily. the offender mtens have had the pleasure of enjoying ons of Judge Baber's lectures ana mes.

TAT THEIR HIGHEST
STATE BANKS SHOW THEIR LARG-
 EST RESERVE. ~
There are 1D1 State Banks and All Have
 Large Reeervcs--rreasurer Seed Es Pleased at Showing.

Gathered from figures contained in the reports on the condition of the State banks as of February IS, the last Of which reports came yesterday to the State Treasurer, the summary shows without doubt the highest percentage of cash reserves to the deposits in the State banks that has ever existed in Alabama. The condition of everyone of the 1sI State banks Is now knewn to the State Treasurer, Hon. Walter D. Seed, and he said yesterday that the new State banking law passed by the last Legislature has proven great saving to the State of Alabama.
 The provision of the banking statute requiring deposits of the State funds in the various State Repositories Is pro- nounced by Treasurer Seed money
 maker for the State. He estimates the annual saving to the State at from sIo,- 900 to s12.000 annually on the present revenue basis of the State
 The State Treasury balance yesterday showed a total of s2.027.000 now on hand. Of this amount all the money is on deposit with the State deposito- ries with the exception of less than &l, 900. which amount Is in the vaults of the State Treasury.
 The principal saving to the State con. sists in the exchange and Remittance fees. According to the new law the Repositories when they accumulate an excess of the quota allowed them. the excess must be remitted at once to the State Treasurer at the exsense of tho bank in question. Tn this way an amount is cleared annually of some- thing more than $1o.0O0.

! MANY CHANGES IN NEW LAW Nine Hour Act Goes Into
 Effect. MANY LOCAL CHANGES MADE FuII Effect of New Regulation Not
 Known. Nunsber of AIabama stations win Have 10 Be Closed, But It Is Nst Ixnewn Which win
 Be selected.
MANY LOCAL CHANGES MADE

At one minutes past 12 o'clock last night the Nine Hour Law passed by the Fifty-Ninth Congress last year went into effect
 The Nine Hour Law prohibits rail- roads from working telegraph opera Borg more than nine hours a day. and begfnnfng this morning the railroads win have to conform to the new order pf things For some days past the ten local railroad officials have been pre- pairing for the change that they knew would have to be made today. Every railroad centering in Montgomery will De affected to a greater or lesser ex- tent. Where two (and in some cases one). operators have been doing the work at hundreds of stations there will have 10 be three men under the new law. The local roads that win be hit Che hardest by the new law are the x.ouisvilIe and Nashville and the Att iantic Coast Line.
 There will be no change in the office of Superintendent Bennett in the union naesenger station, but an additional man will be put on in the yard tele- graph ofice in West Montgomery. Herefofore two men have been doins xfae work there but now there will be three divided into tricks just as in a train despatcher's office. one man from s m the morning until in the after noon. one from ?. n.. till midnight and one from midnight till 8a. m. Sew 3sal of the smaller offices along the line of the Coast Line between Mont eomery and Waycross. Ga. will be annuiled as night offices and only run Ms day ofIices.
 By this means a big expense will ba saved and the extra operator VIII not have to be employed. The only nerxnnnank change. that has been made ln hanntgomery by the Louisville and Naeiivfue is in the downstairs tele- nrauh Soface In the general waiting 9onti4 of the rnion station. For some time pagt Hugh Martin and Wallace T.onw have b4en handling this office Martin being on all day long and Long on all night, about twelve hours each Taking effect yesterday morning the office was made a three trick one like khe train dispatchers office on the third floor. Martin will have the first trick from a. nn., to D. nn.. Long the sec ond trick from D. m., to midnight and Clarence Reid, from the Nortf and South yard offices in North Mont x0mery, the third trick. from midnight to a. nl
 There will he no changes in th' ofice of Chief Train Dispatcher Franl Young or the relay office on the secon, floor or the yard office in North Mont aomery, all of these offices working 4hree tricks On the line of the Mobil and Montgomery Division of the Louis xflie and Nashville between here an Mobile there will be number O changes.

number of trains running each way over the division 1t will be almost ne- cessary to keep most of the offices open day and night. though a few of the smaller stations win have the night ofice annuiIed
 1t is hardly possible that anything permanent will be done for the next few days or until the carnival rush Is over. No change will be made in the office of Chief Train pespatcher Jack Andrews of the Western as the regu- lar three tricks have been in force there all the time Tn the yard office of the Western 1t is possible that there will be no operator on duty after mid night. On the Selma division and the main line between here and Atlanta there will be a number of changes. Some of the stations will have the night offices cut out entirely while at others additional men will be put on to keep the ofice-epen all night. As the Georgia Central has a joint agency with the Western in Montgomery that road will not be affected locally though the Cenral Is adopting the policy of only working an operator eight hours all over the system. The Mobile and Ohio and Seaboard Air Line both nave such small offices in the despatching line in Montgomery that neither will be affected to amount to anything here, though both roads will have to make several changes between Montgomery and Artesia. Miss, and Montgomery and Savannah, Ga.
 |. The result of the new law will cost the railroads thousands of dollars but at the same time 1t will enable thou sands of operators to get positions and give tn housands of others easier hours. An operator will not have to work fourteen or more hours on stretch now with the chances, of his going 10 sleep over the keys as has been the case in the past.

OPENING OF BIDS
GOVERNOR CoMER CALLS UNIyER-
 sTTY BUILDING COMMITTEE.
Next Monday, for Third Time. Members Wnl Oonvene to Consider Award of Contract for
 q Constrncti0u.

Through Private Secretary William E. Fort. Governor Conner yesterday is- sued a call for business meeting ot the Building Committee of the Uni versity to be held in the executive's office at noon next Monday, March 3.
 The purpose of the meeting Is to omen bids which have been submitted for the erection of two new buildings at Tuscaloosa this year. These struc- tpres are to be known as the Biologi- cal and the Geological Building or the Engineering Department of the state University.
 The, members of the University Building Committee, all of whom are expected to be present, are Justlce T. c Mcclellan of Montgomery. Paul Le- Grande of Montgomery. Daniel Pratt of Prattville. J. H Johnson or Lails. s. dega. and Judge E. W. Coleman of Eutaw. The Governor Is ex-ofbcio Chairnsn of the Committee and will return to Montgomery next Monday in time to preside at the meeting.
 This will be the third time that the University Building Committee has been called together to consider bids on the two important buildings pro posed for the University, for which several thousand dollars are available through an appropriation made during inc Iasf session of the Legislature.
 On opening each of the two sets of hids on record, the Committee rejected the offers without much deliberation. There was said to be an unusually large divergence between high and low bids at each sitting of the Committee although the second responses from contraetors showed pronounced reduc- tions of the first figures.
 The members of the Committee ex- press the hope that even further re- auctions in the bids to be opened Mon day will be submitted in view of the sharp decline in both the cost of ma terial and labor now prevalent.

HEAVY WORK LIGHTENED.
City Hall Men Have Copying Machine
 Now

Employees in the office of City Engi- neer A. R. Gilchrist are rejoicing over the possession of a multiple copying machine upon which they may make as many duplicates of circular letters and plans and specifications as are needed without their going through the oner- ous task of doing two or three at a time on a typewriter.
 The purchase of the machine. which is of modern manufacture and type, was ordered by the Mayor after con- suitation with officers in the building. While it is intended primarily for the city Engineers office where it is most freonentiy required, other employees will be allowed to employ it in their work if it becomes necessary.
