Af-or the presentation OF the case the
contestants and their representatives shall
retire and the committee shall decide the
case before calling the next one. without
debate and by a viva voce vote. unless a
demand for a roll call is sustained by at
least twenty members.
The Alabama cases, by agreement OF all
parties concerned. were consolidated and
therefore two hours were given to each
side. 1t was regarded as the most import
ant Of all the contests, because Of the fact
that twenty-five delegates we're involved

be called in the convention when nominal
tons are being made.
The candidate securing the delegation
from Alabama is sure to be the first placed
In nomination. because the state having no

Arguments Begin.

The Scott-Davidson faction being the first
TO file its contest. was given one and one
half hour to open, the Thompson faction
followed with two hours, and the Scott
Davidson people closing in half an hour
The principal arguments in the opening for
the Scott-Davidson people, was made by
Judge Asa f. Stratton Of Montgomery. a
leader OF the anti-Taft forces. He used al
most all OF the time allowed to his side
for the opening although Mr. Aldrich and
]. II. Manning. postmaster at Alexander,
spoke briefly. The latter charged that the
Taft convention had been controlled by
federal office holders and were directed
! from Washington. One OF the northern
| members provoked laughter by remarxlng
audibly that II that were true II in itself
proved the regularity of the Taft dele
cation" He was called to order for Great
| ing levity.
The Taft forces under the general direc-
tion Of ormsby McHarg Of Washington, D.
C.. were represented by o. D. Street, United
States attorney for the northern district OF
Alabama; William Farley of Birmingham.
a member Of the xecutive board of the
United Mine Workers association and n.
H. Alexander, colored man of Mont
gomery. The legal argument was made by
Mr.. Street. During his speech favoring the
! SedtlhS Oh the uelegates headed by State
Chairman Thompson. he produced a copy
Of circular letter sent out by Mr.. Aldrich
Of the anti-Taft faction, calling on the
! ''outs" to unite for the purpose of throwing
out the ''ins." The purpose OF introducing
this letter was to show that the Scott
Davidson faction had publicly recognized
that the Thompson faction was the regular.
Mr.. Aldrich acknowledged the authenticity
Of the letter, and 1t is believed to have
much to do with the fact that a roll call
was not necessary. Mr.. Farley made a
powerful argument for his side and said
he did not represent a faction, but that he
Intended to do all he could TO induce or
garized labor to vote for the nominee of
the convention. He announced chat he was
for Taft and is one of the delegates at
large instructed 10 vote for him. Mr.. Alex
ander spoke for the negroes on the delega-
tion and asserted that II was the Thomp-
son faction which overturned the Lilly
White" movement in the state.
All except members of the national COM
mittee were excluded from the room at
} 4:i5 p. m. and few minutes later It was
} known that the Taft delegates had been
seated. There was no demand for roll
call and on the viva voce expression Il is
said that only Mr. Scott of Alabama voted
for the seating OF the delegates elected by
his faction.

Policeman Cliff ford Phares left with the dogs Friday morning and on reaching the scene found that water had been poured on the trail and other wise so obstructed that the dogs failed to strike a trail of the guilty parties. oFicer Phares returned to Demopolis Friday after noon. It Is the opinion of many that the purpose of thu ose who sought to set fire to tho building was robbery. A careful examination of the store dis closed the fact that aside from the burning of q number of boards on the building. no other damage was done.

 Since the fall of Adam. the world has been ,peopied with all ranks and de- grees of mankinl. From the highest eminent of ease. aniueace and luxury, all the way down through the toilIng millions. to poverty's. vale, we see the human family. The Lord is the maker of them all We a.s all here together, passing through this life of proba ton. And so far as the great md the more important matters are concerned, we are on the sane level Trde it ls, that In many of the distinctions of life, men are unequal. But It Is not because some live in palaces, and others dwell in rude huts.
 Outward appearance and position In society, Is not true index to the char acter of men and women So far as our pedigree goes, we are all descendaffts of Adam and Eve. God ath made ot one blood all the nations of men for to dwell on all the wace of the, earth" Yet as result of our habits customs attachments and Essocia tions. every walk In life is graded Sociais circles, commercial circles. agricuiturAl and mechanical circles. are all graded But the judgment of our finite minds 'sls ofttinnes cratic, We make mistakes In drawing these lines of distipetioH There Is as mu:h truth as poetry in the oft quoted lines of Mir. Gray:
 Full many a gem of Iurest ray serene
 The dark unfathomed caves Of oceap
 bear: 's - Full many flower blooms to blush un- And waste its sweetness on the desert
 air"
 A man, because of his monet, moves In a circle where some. less fortunate. though clean and upright In life. are shut out. Foolish as 1t Is. pride of an- cestry. and superiority of descent. so- called. often gives admission, un- worthlly. We cannot apply the terms, noble and ignoble." to mere flesh and blood. It Is the spirit that dwells within. and not flesh and blood. that makes men great and good.
 In the construction and modification of our persons we are all alike Hay ing one origin, we have one counion nature. There are diversities of stat ure and features. but essentially ell are alike. We all have the same union of body and soul; we. all have intellect ual faculties and reasoning powers. bat not alike in degree.
