LIQUOR DROUGHT IN AIARAMA
Passange of Carmichael Bill Has In.
slant and Striking Effect.

Montgomery, Ala, August 6.-The
Carmichael prohibition bill-far more
drastic than the present statutory
Statewide prohibition law-which
passed the senate this afternoon by
vote of 2S to 2, and which now awaits
only the signature of Alabama's pro-
hibition executive to be the law. has
already scored a far-reaching effect.
so far as the operation of locker
clubs and near-beer saloons are con-
cerned. From all parts OF the State
come reports that with the news Of
the passage Of the Carmichael bill
near-beer saloons and clubs, wherein
liquors have been dispensed to men,
bers under the locker system, were
dismantled and tonight the State is
almost as dry as it will ever be.
In Montgomery even social clubs OF
the highest class have been closed,
and early in the afternoon the near
beer men began the removal of all
drinkables from their places. With
considerable weariness, q few of the
saloons are disposing of occasional
bottles of the amber fluid of the
near" kind, but even those of the
quenchless thirst are extremely eau
tious in attempting to secure drink
ables.
Governor Conner will probably not
sign the Carmichael bill until Monday
afternoon. Both houses adjourned
today until Monday.

ported in the dispute between Turkey
and Greece over Crete is causing anxi-

differences in that quarter of Europe.
but as M. Iswoiski. the Russian for
eign minister, said in an interview a
Cowes last Tuesday that If there is
any awkward development in the sit
uation Europe will see that no mis-
chievous effect therefrom. there is no
idea that hospilities will follow and
there is every reason to believe that
a satisfactory settlement will be ar
rived at.
From the latest reports it appears
that Turkey has not presented any
thing in the form of an ultimatum to
Greece, but has confined herself to
verbal protests, while the protecting
powers are making energetic repre-
sentations both to Constantinople and
Athens to secure an amicable ar
rangement of the dispute. The four
powers insist that under no circum-
stances shall the Greece flag he hoist
ed over any public building at Crete
and the foreign consults at Canea
have been instructed to impress this
fact upon the Cretan authorities.

WILL ISSUE NO BONDS

washington, Aug. 1.-The Secre-
tary of the Treasury has announced
his intention of issuing no Panama
bonds under the recent authorization
OF Congress, which delegated to him
authority to issue bonds to the
amount of $375,OOO,OoO to pay for the
canal. The Secretary is a business
man. He does not believe in borrow
ing money when it can be avoided by
economy and he does not like Ions
term notes. He had decided. there
fore, If compelled to borrow at all. to
do so on Treasury certificates which
are payable within one year.

The Negro Workman and the White.

1t is useless to deny, however. that
race antipathy did play it's part in the
Georgia strike, and it is hardly worth
while to shut our eyes to the fact that
it will probably figure in many indus
trial difficulties in the future, unless
human nature changes radically. 1t
is very important, therefore, for the
South to know the truth about the
effect of the negro's presence and in
dustry upon the white mans prosper
ity. That the negro, as he has lived
heretofore, has been a tremendous in
uustrial handicap to the South, nc
rightly-informed man, we believe,
will deny. Ignorant labor is a curse
to any community, and the negro's
low standard of living has lowered
the incomes of the white laborer who
has had to compete with him. and
the reduced incomes of both has in
juriousiy affected every professional
and business man in the South. To
nv OooO tiiS iht-lllScHCc, the earning
power, of any man will help the COM
munity, and to train the negro to
greater skill and efficiency will help
the South. A trained, efficient negro
will not, of course, help the commu-
nifty so much as a trained, efficiert,
white man of even the same degree
of intelligence, because we have a
dual civilization in the South. and
the negro's income goes largely to
support and benefit the negro's half
of that dual civilization-and in
creasingly so, perhaps. AS negro
wealth increases, negroes will negsn
to patronize their own stores. bankys,
factories, etc., as well as their own
schools and churches. Still the negro
who is trained to do good work is go
ing to help the community far more
than the negro who is idle or who is
TOO ignorant to earn more than half
what he should.

Washington, Aug. S.-Now that the
extra session of Congress has come
to an end and one can tell how it
was all done, it is interesting to see
what part the members of the South
Carolina delegation have taken in the
great tariff fight, now gone into his
tory.
Beginning with the Senate, it is
only fair to say that Senator Tillman
failed to add the weight to the dis
cussion in the tariff that his Demo-
cratic colleagues expected. Senator
Tillman quit the Senate six weeks
ago and went West, the public not
knowing exactly where or for what
real purpose, though it has been said
that he was lecturing. However that
may be, it is fact that he quit the
Senate, when. by remaining he could
have done much towards placing cot
ton bagging on the free list. But that
is all over now.
A comparison of Senator Tillman's
work during the extra session with
other Democratic Senator's does not
make very favorable showing, so
far as the public can see.
Senator Smith did we'll for a new
member. He is young, active and
enthusiastic, and in time will un-
doubtedly develop into a strong man,
though as yet there are many points
in the legislative game he must learn.
When Senator Aldrich tells you. for
instance, that cotton bagging is GO
ing on the free list and it does not
don't be surprised, make a mark on
the wall and remember it.
Senator Smith, however, has done
some good work outside the Senate
chamber, and all in all, has accom-
plished good deal for his people
during the limited time he has been
here.
In the House there has not been a
great deal for the members of the
delegation to dO-all of them being
! rock-ribbed Democrats-but to watch
| the ponderous Payne-Cannon ma
| chWe slowly but surely do it's work.
So far as the tariff is concerned
Representatives Finley, Aiken and
| Patterson have already given their
views through the News and Courier
Mr.. Lever prefers to say nothing al
this time, as is the case with Mr.. Ell.
ierbe, Mr.. Johnson will probably tel
the people later on what his views
| are.
| TO Mr.. Finley much praise should
be given for getting Mr.. Patterson or
the census committee and Mr. lie.
gare on foreign affairs, because he is
the man who mace Speaker Cannon
do 1t. Both these assignments are
good ones, so it is up to the people
OF the 1st and 2d districts to vote
Mr.. Finley their thanks.
The other committee places given
the members of the South Carolina
delegation will doubtless keep them
busy during the long session of Con-
gress, commencing in December and
IN closing the account of the work
or the present session it is only fair
to say that the South Carolinians
nave not loafed on their Jobs
Though three have been on the sick
| list-Legare, Ellerbe and Johnson
the members of the delegation have

the extra session ends.-P. H. MEG.

LICENSES OF BARRIERS. Hearing On Bills For Repeal of the
 License System '


 Hartford, April 1.-Barbers from all portions of the state were present at the hearing before the committee on public health and safety yesterday afternoon. The barbers were present to favor the bills repeating the r. cense law for barbers and providing for proper inspection of barber shops by local or town health officers.
 Secretary Heineman of Meriden pre- sented a substitute for the bills which do away with the barbers' commission. In favoring the repeal of the license system he said that the system had become a farce.
 Charles Weisner of Meriden. repre- senting the boss barbers, said that the license system had been a great in jury, to the boss barbers, in that it kept the good men out of the state, because they objected to the fee.
 In advocating the inspection of shops by health officers instead of by the commissioners. he said that his shop had never been properly inspected.
 MT. Weisner also spoke of graft" in the license system, claiming that bad barbers can get a license even if they don't pass examinations. provid- ing they pay money enough. MT. Weis- ner admitted that he had no personal knowledge of any man paying more than s5. which is prescribed by law, for a license.
 Representative George B. Chandler of Rocky Hill, said that the majority of the journeyman barberS wanted the commission.

KING PETER MAY ABDICATE SOON Blamed for Set Back to Servia in Recent
 Balkans Trouble
Special from United Press.)

Belgrade, April 1.-The next few days will decide whether King Peter will continue on the Servian throne in the opinion of leading Servian pol
 ticians. If the present angrye temper of the people continues, the King it is expected will abdicate, regardless of whether the government grants him an annuity. Should the people. how ever swallow their discontent over the complete reverse that befel1 them in the Balkan issue, for which Peter is held primarily responsible, he will re- tain the crown. The belief is general that Peter vii abdicate.
 It is said that he has already asked the good graces of the Russian and English ministers in an attempt to have the government grant him an an- nuity of $50,OO0 One thing that holds the King in check is his fear that his withdrawal would endanger the con- tinuance of the House of Karageorge- vitch His younger son, the new.y named Crown Prince George would succeed him in the legal course of events but owing to the political con- ditions the people would not long sub init to the sons rule.

SPEEDING UP FIRE BELLS FOR
 QUICKER SERVICE
Big Bells in Towers Will be Detached
 and Operated MannalIy.

APPARATUS WILL BE WE'LL ON
 WAY BEFORE PUBLIC KNOWS
 THAT BLAZE IS IN PROGRESS
 NEW SYSTEM CALLS FOR
 STROKE A SECOND PUTTING
 WIRES UNDERGROUND.
 You may think that the fire laddies get out of the engine houses in great time now. but just wait until all of the engine house gongs are speeded up to a. stroke a second. Anyone pulling a fire alarm will think that the horses come out of the box. At present there is a stroke of the gong every s-4 sec onds with a pause of 7-s seconds be- tween each number. This is getting the alarm in in good time and in most ready to go after getting the first round unless it is a very short box On receiving the majority of the boxes, however, the drivers are in their seats before the first round is in and are waiting to go. In this interval val table seconds are lost. This waiting for the alarm to come in is because the big tower bells are hitched up with the small house gOngS and the big ham, mers connected with the tower bells cannot be raised and lowered any fast CT than the 2 3-4 second intervals.
 During the next 60 days Supt
 
 be engaged in putting the fire alarm wires underground where there are cOnduits. The commissioners have ordered the house gongs speeded up and disconnected from the big tower bells. This does not mean that the tower bells are going to be done away with, but a manual system will be es- tablished in connection with tower bell service. After the first round has been sounded on the house gong ser vice, a fireman at headquarters will send in the alarm on the big bells. The latter will be operated by small cog wheels with notches in them to corre- spond with the number of the box that is sounded.
 Fire companies will be on their way long before the first round Is sound ed by the tower bells.
 The warning horns at Fairfield ave- nue and the warning signals which Supt. Barnes will place on the bridges will be connected with the same cir cult as the small house gongs so the public in the center of the city will be warned.
 The disconnecting of the big bells is a step toward a manual system as the city is getting too large for an auto- matic system. The method employed in ringing the big bells will be the same as that in New Haven. There the big bells were cut out altogether for a time. but the people missed them and because of public opinion they were placed in commission again.
