 Everybody thought it was a record and proclaimed 1t as such. stating that 1t had broken the -...Iehury record by a score of minutes. But their elation was short liyed.l The American Mill Ter came out ia itg next issue with the statement that 1t had signed affidavits that the Wild Moss Mills. near Car rollton. Mo. had done the same thing in the incredibly shCrt s. ace of eleven minutes, and added that this record was made away back in 1876 when men were not supposed ,to do things as fast as they. do in .th-se times.
 The Agricuitul 1 Department is go- ing to see who is ,iaking the profits out of the grain business in tte Unit ed States. It knows in the general way that grain Is usually at it's lowest when the farmers arc marketing the bulk of the crop. Ead that 1t usually rises after it has left their hands and Is 'en route to the miller. But how great this margtneis they lave no def inite data to how. So they are send ing out inquiries as to the prices the farmers get. each month. the amount
  millers pay at the anne time. Through these lines of inquiry they propose to ascer- ain the approximate prohts or the middienen and the spectators.
 The Department is also trying to get line on the actual cost to the far mer of growing an acre of '--ieat. They sent out thousands of letters to farm CTS large and small, and the replies are now about .all in, but untabulated They show wide difference In the cost. One letter quotes the following as the cost-ofi growing aud getting an acre Of wheat to .--~rist: Land rent $2.81; fertilizer $:.15; preparing ground $1.87: seed a6 cents;y sowing 37 cents; marketing 75 cents;. total s11.s9.

They are lines which graphically show the relation between the .crop forecasts of the Department and the actual yfetd, as Indicated by reports from the great grain markets. The two sets of lines are alnlott coincident and show beyond peracverture thai the crop reporting system they have evolved te.s. the true condition of the crop. Whenever doubting Thomas comes around they show him these | lines and after that Le has no more criticism of the government crop re- ports.

COMMISSION MEETS
CALLED SESSION TO HEAR TWO
 CASES.
Andalnsia asE'hynicaI Connection" Be-
 tween l.. & N. and Central of
 GeOrgsa ls One and Southern Express Another.

A special meeting of the Alabama Railroad Commission has been called for tomorrow morning in the rooms at the Capitol.
 There are two important matters to command the attention of the body. The Southern Express Company de- sires to do better business over the Tombigbee Valley Railroad lines than 1t has been doing and to that end has petitioned the commission for permis- sion to establish higher tariff over that read.
 It Is urged by. the company that the existing rates are not profitable. It Is understood that it's representatives will appear before the commission or have papers submitted as testimony. to prove their position in the case
 The other case Is a drawing from the closet of the old Andalusia "physi- cal conection"' skeleton Again the Railroad Commission has cited the Louisville anc Nashville and the Gen. tral of Georgia to appear and show cause why they should net have at AndalusOa an interchange of switch ing facilities.
 This citation has been tried and argued many times before, it is nn- derstood. even by a commission whose personnel was quite different from the present body. It seems. however that a satisfactory answer has not beon given by the carriers. Both defendant lines enter in Andalusia. There Is said to be lot of freight destined from one line to the other, transfer to be made at that point. The cars. instead of being switched. have to be unIoaded by sklds and charges are made there for. It is to eliminate thia delay that shippers in and out of Andalusia have made complaint.
 It Is not improbable that the kail- road Commission will at this session decide one or two cases whose argu- ments were completed at the monthly meeting several days ago. Chairman Charles Henderson and associates are expected to be present.

 La Condesa. once famous singer. and even now delightful artist. took up guitar without further hesitation, struck few chords. and sang in her rich, soft contraito the well-known song.
 When the murmur of applause had died away she said

 Casilda received her be-ribboned guitar. and after a few preliminary bars, her sweet young soprano broke Into melodious seguidIlla of exquisite plaintiveness. the chorus of which was taken up by la Condesa and all the men.

Misleading the Public.

A little tax of so cents on the dol
lar is cheap to pay for this session of
the general assembly Huntington
Clipper
We don't know. whether this is
maliciously misleading statement a
bitofcheap mendacity or merely lump
of irresponsible CUFF intended to be
funny, but it is one OF those baseless
sIurs that tend to bring decent and re-
sponsible newspapers into disrepute
Whatever the faults of the present leg
islature, its mistakes have not been on
the side Of radicalism or extrayagance
So far it has voted no more money
out of the state treasury than it has
voted in, and marked departures from
the existing order of things have been
conspicuous by their absence.
If the Clipper refers to the length
OF the session, it is as far wrong as
usual. With more important bills and
other matters to be considered than
have come before any previous legis-
lature the session to date has lasted
only &C days against 70 days two years
ago. While in the end this session
will be from week to two weeks
longer than the session of 1906 the
difference is more than warranted by
the variety and magnitude of the ques-
tions that have come before 1t. Ihe
difference in cost is not enough to
Varrent sighting the work that the
state pays to have done as well as
may be with the talent that the state
has sent there to do It.
The only thing that could bring
about a state tax would be for the leg
islature to vote to build a state normal
school and to go into trunk line high
Vav building as has been proposed
The state can even undertake one oil
these projects without a state tax ana
should both be approved by the legls-
lature q state tax OF five cents on the
dollar would provide ample funds. 1t
is even probable that provision coulu
be made for first class normal school
and a moderate start made on trunk
line highway building without rem
dering a state tax necessary.
If the Clipper intended its remark
for a joke it should so label it. II II
intended il seriously it is as ridlcu-
lous as when, on the eve OF election II
predicted the success OF Bryan.
