The revision and sealing down of bounties and the new law which permits the county to retain all moneys collected from the lease of school lands, instead of turning them over to the territory for division among all the counties, as has been the practice heretofore, are responsible for the financial gain above noted.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
The Morris Avenue outraae.

Morris avenue was thoroughly
aroused over the search procedures yes
terday morning in which the establish
ments of two fish dealers of known in
tegrity and high business standing
were entered by city detectives and
searched from top to bottom The
fact that the officers were vested with
no orders from the chief of police and
had not the sign of the required search
warrant was the particular cause for
Indignation
ono we'll known merchant who does
not seek free advertisement in news
papers by declaring his sentiments on
any public question stated that he con-
sidered the proceedings in every sense
or the word an outrage. 1.-THE search"
he said, was in direct violation of sec
ton 5 of the bill of rights of our con-
stitution, which provides that no reach
snail be legal unless inspired by prob
able cause. Even If the officers had
been armed with warrants. the search
would have been Illegal, as nothing
has been advanced to show that even
possible cause existed.
Il know both the victims of the
search personally, in fact have known
them during the entire length of time
that I have been located here on Mof
ris avenue One of them has been a
citizen of Birmingham for 26 years and
the other, according to his statement,
for % years. During all this time Meth
er has ever been convicted or even
accused of dishonesty or violation OF
the law in any form. 1 have the word
of one, and know 1T TO be strictly the
truth. that he has never been con-
nected during his residence in this
city with courts, civil or criminal, In
tho capacity of defendant
The harm that may come to a mans
reputed honor and good name through
such proceedings cannot be exagger-
ated. When a man strives to be up
right and honest it is certainly no more
than just that fiimsy pretexes and I'M
grounded suspicious should not be ac-
cepted as cause for disturbing his
peace and casting slur upon his good
name.
1t Is said that a cause assigned for
the search was the fact that whisky
might be brought into Birmingham for
distribution in barrels that might be
thought to contain fish from Pensacola.
If such is the lawful course of pro-
cedure, I may expect at any time to
have officers of the law empty my
Florida oranges from their crates or
see barrels of apples or sacks of pota-
toes emptied of their contents In
search for malt or vinons liquors and
other intoxica ting beverages II this
matter is suffered TO pass unnoticed by
the proper authorities. no merchant can
ever feel safe in his own place of bus
mess. Even when one tries to avoid
the appearance of evil he may be
upon and forced to suffer such
indignities.'

200 MAJORITY IN
ST. CLAIR COUNTY

Pell City, November Especial -
vened here today with Judge John w.
liner present and presiding. The
docket is about as usual, the most I'M
portant civil suit, that of q. L. Trutt
against the Southern railway, going to
trial just after dinner and promises to
continue several days.
Just before court met here today an
impromptu debate was arranged be-
tween Frank S. White of Birmingham
and Fred L. Blackmon of Admission, for
and against the amendment respect
lively. The regular first day of the
term crowd gave close attention to the
speakers, but no new converts were
made on either side. Pell City is just
about surfeited with amendment talk
and the county Is going to vote
against It,
or the 70 precincts in the county the
defenders refuse to concede more than
i've to the amenders. Many wild esti-
mates are being made but a conserva-
tive view places st. Clair against the
amendment by majority of 200 and
upward.
Extensive improvements have been
completed in the boiler room and light
ing plant of the Pell City Manufacture
ing company. The mill Is now running
four full days week. which will be
its policy until the price OF its finished
goods has reached a parity with the
raw material. Reports received here
indicate that many other mills in the
south are on much more restricted
hours, so the employees are not COM
planning.
1t is reported here that a charter for
a projected railway from Chattanooga
to the gulf has issued. and that the
line will make use of the two links
now operating between Coal City, Pe1T
City and Talladega. Surveying parties
are said to be now in the field and
rights of way are being obtained as
rapidly as possible.

Nicara9ual Problems

The execution of Groce and Can
non, both Americans, by the Nicara-
guam government has precipitated &C.
ton on the part Of the United States
against President Zelaya, who for IS
years has governed Nicaragua. The
United States has dispatched the
transport Buffalo on the Pacific coast
TO Panama, from which port 500 ma
rines could be speedily carried to Mica
ragua. The cruisers Dixie and Prairie
will perhaps sail from Philadelphia to
Colon.
The facts connected with the execu-
ton of Groce and Cannon are not fully
or accurately known. They may have
been engaged in the revolution that
General Estrada is conducting against
President Zelaya. 1t is claimed that
they were put to death after "a fair
eourt-martial held under the direction
Of the government" But on the other
hand they may not have had fair
! trial. The United States is simply
taking steps to ascertain the truth and
to secure reparation if reparation on
account of the execution be due. All
depends upon the fairness of the court
martial and the facts brought out in
connection with the two Americans
who we're executed. Did they have q
fair trial? Were their lives properly
forfeit to the state? The truth is t.
be ascertained, and at present this i!
all the governments action means. In
tervention will not follow if the gov
eminent of Nicaragua kept within it!
rights and international law Thi
government will do nothing to encour
age soldiers of fortune to create rebel
lion and instruction in sister repub
lies, and Zelayas personal unpopular
ity in this country will not even b.
considered. 1t is simply and wholly {
question Of International law.

Getting Ready 10 Vote

The registrars of each county in the

in September, 1908. All who are en-.

ayers of the election his registration
certificate and poll tax receipts.
There is some confusion over the
rights of new voters, that is to say, of
voters who have recently become of
age. The poll tax of this year does
not become delinquent until February
1, 1910, and so a man who became
81 after October 2, 1908, can vote with
out paying any poll tax. The poll tax
of 1908 cannot be assessed against him
and the poll tax of 1909 need not be
paid until February 1, 1910.
AS general proposition every citi-
zen who desires to vote next Monday
should carefully ascertain next Friday
or Saturday how he stands in the mat
ter of reg1stration-what In word he
lacks in order to become a fully quail
fled elector of the state of Alabama.

New Jersey to Long Island

From Harrison, New Jersey, a train
of cars was actually run last week
under Jersey City, under the North
river, under the island of Manhattan,
under the East river, under a portion
of Brooklyn, emerging at Long Island
City and going on to Jamaica which
lies east of Brooklyn. The Pennsyl-
vania railroad is not ready to inaugu-
rate its system of interstate and inter-
borough traffic. This will be done
next summer. But the passage of a
train through the new tubes and SUBJ
ways is In itself a great event, for II

shows that engineering genius has
triumphed over all the obstacles that
surround and go with the great city.
1t may mean, too, that passengers
and freight will be taken on board
ship at Montauk Point, thus carrying
out a long-standing dream and changing
perhaps the course of international
trade.
Manhattan is no longer an island
and in many important respects the
rivers that lie on either side of it have
been eliminated. ALI this was accom-
plished at immense expense. The cost
exceeds $4,000 900, and it is altogether
probable that the railroad company
which foots the bills has in contempla-
ton swift steamers plying between
Fort Pond Bay, near the extreme end
of Long Island, and Milford Haven, the
first good barbor in England Time
would be saved at both ends of the
sea trip, and time is important in the
transportation of ocean mails at any
rate.

Standard OIL Case
swered

The new copper combine and tele-
phone-telegraph merger, together with
the speedy coming of Congress and the
Presidents message, have lent new
interest to the trust problem
Just at this point comes an import
ant decision concerning the Standard
Oil company in the United States cir
cult court sitting at St. Louis. The
United States is the plaintiff In this
suit and seven individuals, headed by
John D. Rockefeller, are the defend
ants. These seven men and their as
sociates are enjoined from conducting
many subsidiary corporations, which
were once competitors, as one great
monopoly tn the of business, thus. it is
held, violating the antitrust act of 1890.
The Standard Oil company of Ohio and
these subsidiary corporations are de-
clared to be combination and con-
spiracy in restraint of trade. The case
will speedily be carried to the United
States supreme court.
1t is difficult to say what the ulti.
mate effect of the decision of Judge
Danborn will be. If it means that all
holding companies which are operated
IN restraint of trade must be dissolved
1t will be pretty far-reaching. Prao
tically speaking, the decision has no
confiscation side 1t simply orders the
distribution of the stock of subsidiary
companies among the Stockholders of
the Standard Oil company Of Ohio.
The individual stockholders would
then conduct the subsidiary companies.
not the Standard Oil company. What
difference this would make remains to
be seen. The decision seems to bear
AGAINST those holding companies

which Indulgence in restraint of trade
or that do anything to crush COMPETE
ton
The Standard Oil, with its 10 sub
sidiary corporations, stands condemned
by the federal court as an unlawful
combination The corporation that
! now rests under the shadow and ban
Of the law is controlled by seven men.
These men are declared to be eonspira-
tors within the meaning of a famous
federal statute, that of July 2, 1890,
known as the Sherman antitrust law.
Mr. Kellogg of Minnesota was the soul
and the spirit of the contention on the
part of the United States against the
Standard Oil, and no doubt he will be
retained until the case is ended in the
United States supreme court.
There are holding companies which
not only do not restrain trade, but
which actually encourage competition
the United States Steel corporation
for example, and these are not touched
even remotely by the Sanborn decis-
ion. There are other holding COM
panies which are mere business con-
yeniences, and these are not affected
by the decision. Only those that are
operated in restraint of trade are hit
by the decision.
