NEW BRANCH OF NATIONAL
 GUARD IN MONTGOMERY

Arrangements have been completed for establishing detachment of sig nal corps as an addition to the present National Guard organization In Mont gomery. The fact that this is the highest and most expensive branch of militia maintained by the government, speaks well for the standing of this city In military affairs at Washington.
 At present there have been but nine companiks of signal corps organized In the United States and this Is the first to go to the South. Already the local detachment has received equipment valued at several thousand dollars. and it is expected that the next shipment will include an entire wireless tele- graph outft, which will be installed at the company's rooms in the Bell Build ing.
 The personnel of the local company is very high, being composed almost entirely of men engaged in electrical work and so especially fitted for hand- ling the scientific apparatus furnished by the government.
 Lieutenant T. O. Kennedy Is in com mand of the local detachment and Ma for J H. Paterson is chief sisnal or ficer for the State.

TO FIGHT aocToPUs.y

 Colonel John Opposed to Fee systru.
 Birmingham, May l9.-(Speciai )-- Colonel Sam Will John. the well known member of the Legislature from this county, is out fin an interview in which ne says that he will fight the fee sys- tenn "octopus"
 Colonel John is Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and floor leader of the administration forces in the lower branch of the law makers. He believes strongly in the abolition of the fee system in the payment of county and State officials.
 Experience everywhere with the fee system Is that 1t Is wrong in princi . pie" said Colonel John. Tt has proved that the officials are constantly tempt- ed to collect more fees than they are entitled to.
 Tn large, populous and wealthy counties the officers get much more un- der the fee system than would be al- lowed under salaries This excess is taken from the people for the admin istratiop of Justice. And the sad part of the system is that most of those fees are exacted from the poor and unfor- tunate class"
