Southern Pig Iron Companies Have
 Good Lime of Orders.
 Chattanooga, Tenn. July 13.~-The Tradesman tomorrow will say.
 Almost all Southern pig iron corn- panies have a good line Of orders on hand and are anticipating more bustl ness in the very near future.
 The quotations are holding firm. There is some inquiry for the product and small lot orders are being placed. The home consumption is increasing and the shipments are greater than the production.
 A strike of the union coal miners in Alabama causes q little apprehension and may delay further Improvement in the iron production for a little while. The furnace and commercial miners, with but few exceptions, reit- crate intention of operating mines on the open shop plan. Three furnaces in this section of the country are In read.. mess for the torch. with two others nearing completion. The stocks of iron on yards in the South has been reduced at least 50 per cent. in the past thirty days and the railroads continue to give every service that could be ex- pected in a prompt delivery of the business.
 The quotations are between SIP and Sl2.50 per ton the latter price being obtained for car load lots and irnme. diate delivery. Considerable of this

ANOTHER MOVE INITIATED.

oil Company Asked to Reiinauish OH
 Land Holdings.
 Guthrie. Ok. July 13--Another move in Attorney General Vests fight on Standard oil was initiated today when suit was filed in the Logan County Dis- trfct Court asking an order of court compelling the Prairie oil and Gas Company to relinquish it's entire hold ingS of oil lands. leases and wells in the eastern counties traversed by the company's pipe lines.
 It is the contention of the State that the Prairie Oil and Gas Company holds lands in the State in violation of the laws of the State. as being q common carrier and therefore public service corporation and only permitted to own such lands as are necessary in the operation of its public service.
 The Prairie Company is charged with discriminatory rates on the trans portation of oil. which have resulted in the monopolization of the industry in the oil producing counties and the State further prays that if the restraint of the company from further reducing oil from it's holdings does not relieve the independent producers, that receiv- CTS be appointed for the company in the State.

FOUR TUsKERs IN TWO MINUTES Swift Reduction of the Elephant Herds
 of LemagundI.

of LemagnndI.
 London Chronicle.
 The wild elephants of Rhodesia are peculiarly vicious, and owing to the operation of extremely stringent game laws, their numbers have increased to a locality become that the farms are be- coming depopulated. Settlers and prospectors gave it a wide berth and the natives are terrorixed because of several men being killed and crops destroyed. especially in the district of Lomagundi.
 A missionary, the Rev. W. T. Gran tham. made repeated appeals to the South African Government for some re- taxation of tSe game laws. and now the announcement is officially made that His Honor the Administrator au- thorizes the destruction of elephants in the Lomagundi district"
 Writing home to Lancaster, Mir. Grantham speaks of the influx of 'big game" sportsmep into the district and describes an experience of three Dutch men while elephant shooting:
 "At e. m. they came on a troop of seven elephants, and killed one bull. They followed on the spoor Of the others and ct 2:So came up with them about seven miles east of my station By this time other elephants had joined up, and they numb cred about eighteen. The hunters fired and the bull dropped :.
 The remaining elephants spread themselves out. and completely sur rounded the men on a small ant heap. To run away was impossible. so they sat tight, kept their nerve and shot |. straight with the result that in two minutes they had killed four elephants within a radius of from twenty to fifty yards. The others then made of, i've having been Killed. and all Of them tuskers. I went out to the scene of the fray. and an interesting sight 1t

Alahama,s Came Lawa.

On ariezton News and Courier.
 Under the operation of the Alabama statute for the protection of fiah and game, e20,000 was covered into state freasury during the year following It's snactment. and of this sum slea00o re- mained in the treasury after the ex. penses of the law's enforcement had been paid. That iB the statement of The Atlanta Journal.
 The Alabama lew vas drafted by John Fl. Wallace the fish and game commissioner of Alabama. who upon the invitation of the Georgia legisla- ture delivered an address in Atlanta with the object of stirring interest In the subject of preserving. the wild hrida and beasts of Georgta from early ex- tinction.
 If Co much could be accomplished and so quickly in Alabama, ts seems that similar results might be hoped for in South Carolina if John r Wallace were available to draft a statute and enforce it after it's enactment. At any rate, progress might be made If South Carolina would initiate Alabama, copy. ing her statute and taking the chances of discovering man capable of nak- ing the protection of flsh and game q sustaining business for the state.

kind of trading is reported. The bulk of the business is reported as between s12 and st2.25 per ton. No. 2 foundry.
 The selling that is now going on in the South Is for the fourth quarter of the year. There are no orders out of ordinary size. Many consumers ap- pear to be placing orders only to meet immediate demands.
 Cast iron pipe plants throughout the South and the soil pipe plants also continue to use large quantities Of iron. The prospects with these industries are exceptionally bright Old orders on hand and new business in sight, likely to be placed in the next few days, prom ise to give the cast iron pipe plants op- portunity to not only add all pits not yet in operation but to keep them go- Ing for some time to come.
 The steel situation in the Southern territory holds up well.

Bryan and Kern.

Pittsburg Sun.
 The Denver convention did not make the mistake that was made at Chicago. of nominating an incongruous ticket. Mir. Bryan's running mate. John ". Kerni of Indiana, while one Of the .so- called Gold Democratic school. has never waveree in his party loyalty and has done yoemau service for the Dem~ ocracy in the Hosier State. Mir. Kern's nomination will add to Mfr Bryanis the battle-ground of the campaign.
 There is little more than sentiment and tradition of very uncertain sort ito encourage the nomination or an ming mate. The ticket as it is will likely be found as strong or even stronger than if 1t had been distributed aeSSrdiag S tS s ssosraPnsssl o SGn alliances. no compromising circum. stances such as the placing of almost any Eastern man on the ticket would
 The Democrats are. whore the Re- publicans are not, in 9 position to make q strong, aggressive fight without any apologies. explanations or defenses. Both Bryan and Kern are redoubtahie. resourceful eampaigners, and as this will undoubtedly be a contest where the appeal will bS made to reason rather than to mere passion and pre-. judiee, the Democratic party starts out
 Both of It's candidates are seif-mads men, and without entangting afnlia- tfons with those clements of business and economic life which the country is learning to distrust and oppose. and here again they gre in farked contrast to Taft and Sherman.
 Let no one deceive himself that this is going to be any one-st6ed or walk a. way affair. Possession, prestige and resources lie all with the Republican party but the record for the last ten years is a terrific handicap. The Dem ocrats are substantially united where unity Is most needed. They are Rg- gressive and armed with arguments to which the country will give large heed. The conflict is going to be stern and hopefully a conclusive one. The con- scienca of the American people is aroused and no one can say to what lenrth it will take them.

Re.I pemOcrntie Unrty Needed.

We hope that we shall now at last have real Democratic unity, and that with some chance at least of making a good light. There has been moro than enough of tactionaI fighting, and kinds of Democrats. It is to be hoped that the words of Governor Francis ok Missouri may be needed. Let's bury encee that have divided us.' It may be that Grover Cleveland's memory will operate as a unifying force, and that under his leadership--ncne the less ef- from earth--many victories will yet be won. But whether this shall be the case or not we rejoice that the eon- vention honored itself in claiming this great man As q Democrat.
