The QuarIes Case.

The disbarment proceeding against W. w Quarles, an attorney of Selma, wds presented to the supreme court today by his attorneys, Mallory & Mallory and Pet tus, Jeffries & Pettus. The case was brought by the central counsel of the State Bar association and the allegation was encouraging litigation. The lower court held that the charges were not true and the state appealed. The procedure in cases of this kind is for the solicitor to bring action on report of the Bar as- sociation and the trial is by jury.

BRYAN ACCEPTS NOMINAL
TION.

William j. Bryan, in accepting
the nomination for the Presidency
aroused wild enthusiasm by his ar
raignment of the methods of conduct
ing the nations business by the Sem
ate and House of Representatives.
This is believed to mark the be
ginning of an anti-Cannon cam
paign.
He declared that if elected he
would call special session of Con-
gress and would bring before it the
question of the popular election of
Senators.
"Shall the people ruler" he said,
sis declared by our platform to be
the overshado wing question, for
whether we consider any ofthe num-
erous problems which press for solu-
ton we shall find that the real ques-
ton involved in each is whether tue
Government shall remain mer,
business asset of favor-seeking corpo
rations or be an instrument in the
hands of the people for the advance
ment of the wealth.
He declared that the Democratic
party aims at reformation and not
revolution, and for the rest his adj
dress was largely denun citation OF
the Republican party.
Lincoln was wild with enthusiasm
and many thousands came from out
side the town, for the notification GER
emory.
The affair was nonpartisan in that
the Republican Governor and other
State officials participated.

The suggestion of Mr.. Carville D.
Benson that members of the Legis-
lature should receive stated salaries
has much to commend 1t, says the
Baltimore San.
This snggestio was made by Mr..
Benson while discussing excessive
legislative expenses at the Gov
ternor's Office Tuesday. The Gov
ernor declared that, in his opinion,
the Legislature could do It's work for
so, 900 or $4,000 less than it has
ever done. This is a conservative
estimate of the sum that is squander.
ed at every session. But assuming
that $4,000 could be saved, that
sum would pay the annual interest
on over 100000 of the road bonds.
1t is now squandered by distribution

The amount of coal in the mines
of Alaska cannot be estimated at this
time, according to a statement OF Mir.
Alfred II. Brooks, the official IN
charge of the United States Geolog-
zeal Survey in that Territory. But
it is safe to say, he declares, that
there are hundreds of millions and
even billions of tons there. There
is fully 10000 square miles OF
Alaska whose mineral resources are
unknown and perhaps tue remainde
of the land, or the greater part of 1t,
has been imperfectly explored. Won
derful stories of the coal resources OF
Alaska are told by the United States
biologists. Some of the coal lands
discovered approach close to the
shores of the Arctic Ocean. There
are some on the sharp peninsula
which Jets out from the southwestern
corner of the Territory, dividing Der.
ing sea from the Pacific. The quail
ity of the coal ranges from Ignite to
the best bituminous, similar to the
Pocahontas coal. Some OF the seams
are of great thickness, with "swells'
in them said to be 60 feet of solid
coal. 1t is claimed that there is
good anthracite coal in Alaska, the
whole area of the coal fields now
known being as much as $4,000
square miles. It may be that steam
-er coal can be produced near enough
to the coast or on navigable rivers
which will be available for the bunk
ers of warsbips and of the commerce
carriers of the Pacific. On the other
side of the Pacific, it is said, the
United States is in possession of
good coal supply. In one of the
islands of the Philippines recent dis
coveries have established that fact.
As to Alaska, there seems to be no
end. OF its resources as national
treasure house. When the United
States bought it the general impress
sion was that there was nothing to it
but barren rocks. icebergs and polar
bears. But in reality it has produc-
ed vast treasure from its salmon
and seal fisheries and its gold mines.
Now an inexhaustible store of coal is
added to the list of assets.-Balti-

An ArmOry in Sight at Last.

The House has taken the first
step toward housing the District of
Columbia National Guard in quar-
tiers of which the Capital need not
be ashamed. The need is plain. 1t
has been plain for twenty years
and four times within that period
it has impressed itself on Congress
because without such a building
there was no inclosure properly
available for the inaugural ball
Even now nothing can be done in
time for the Forthcoming Inaugural
tion. As provided by the omnibus
public building act, a space Of
ground is dedicated for a site, and
a commission created for the prepa-
ration of plans. The appropriations
cannot be made until next year, or
the building constructed before
1910 or 1912. But it is a beginning.
The northerly portion of the
Government reservation bounded by
B street northwest, B street south
west, Seventh street and Sixth
street, known as ATmOry square, 3"
is not wholly satisfactory as a dedi-
cation. What is the northerly por-
ton? Apparently any ground north
of the axis Of the Mall. The HInita-
tions ought explicitly TO conform
with those which have governed the
location of the new Agricultural
Department building and the new
National Museum. There is no
occasion to run any risk, To trust
TO the well-Bnown public spirit of
any member of any commission.
The time is abundant TO write the
restrictions into the law, and if it
is not done in the House, it ought
surely be done in the Senate, ac-
cording to its own view formally ex-
pressed and many times reafiirmed.
