the speaker is omnipotent so far as such
matters go In the House and under the
rule which all the Alabama delegation
fought against, the speaker has his own
sweet will. Mr.. Hef1in was recommended
for this committee place by the presi-
dent of the farmers national congress and
the president of the Farmers union, the
president of the Southern Cotton associa-
tion and by Hon. Champ Clark, the min
ority leader.
Mr.. Heflin had been very active on the
agricultural committee in efforts to help
the agricultural interests of the country
and especially those of the south. He
had so persistently fought the cotton
gamblers of New York and demanded that
fair and honest reports be made from the
agricultural department regarding crop re-
ports that his friends say that he in
cured the displeasure of certain special
interests and that these interests In

q result Mr.. Hsflin was taken off the
committee and Mr.. McDermott of Chi
cago put on In his place.
Mr.. Heflin was appointed to the COM
mittees on industrial arts and exposi-
ton and militia His colleagues feel that
the state has been unjustly deprived of
this important place on the agricultural
committee but are confident that his ex-
perienoe and ability will nevertheless be
an available asset of the democracy in
the next session of Congress
The old members of Congress with the
exception of Mr.. Heflin Jared as well az
heretofore and averaged better In the
matter of committee assignment than did
the democrats of any other democratic
state, numbers considered.

The surprise came in the removal of Rep
resenfative Heflin from the agricultural
committee. Representative Underwood
goes back on ways and means where he
rendered such signal service in the tariff
legislation Just closed.
Mr.. Clayton was re-appointed to the
judiciary committee and to the war claims
committee; Mr. Taylor re-appointed to the
rivers and harbors committee; Mr. Rich

mittee and the commerce and pension
committees Mr.. Craig re-appointed to

Dent was appointed to military commit
tee.
Mr.. Heflin, 1t is believed, on account OF
his activity In behalf of measures look
ing to the prevention or gambling In cot
ton, incurred the displeasure of the speak
er and hence was taken from the agri-
cultural committee. This occasioned sur

the place will be left out. The failure
of the delegation to agree is having its

VIRGINIA RACE
Is VERY CLOSE

Richmond, August Son account OF
storms in southern, southwestern and
eastern Virginia the returns from the
democratic primary held yesterday are
very meager. 1t is impossible to deter
mine at 2:30 a'clock whether Mann or
Tucker has been nominated.
Tucker declares he has won out by Il
safe majority and Colonel James Mann
campaign manager for Judge Mann, has
sent the Dispatch a statement de-
clarinx that Mann has won by $500 votes
One of the most interesting features
of the day was the vote of Albemarle
county the home OF Senator Martin. In
spite of the senator's support of Mann
the county went for Tucker by 20 ma
jority.
j. Taylor Ellyson has been nominated
for lieutenant governor; Williams has won
over Catlett for attorney general and
Koiner has polled a very much larger
vote than Brown for commissioner of agri-
culture.
The result in the gubernatorial race
probably will not be known until late
today.

LINCOLN PENNIES
WILL BE CHANGED

Washington, August 5.-Secretary of the
Treasury MacVeagh announced today
that he had decided to have the minting
of the new Lincoln pennies stopped for
the present and that new dies will be
prepared as soon as possible, eliminating
the initials of the designer which now
appear so prominently, and substituting
the single initial '.B'' in an obscure part
of the design. The secretary said that
none of the pennies issued so far would
be called in, but that the minting would
be stopped because sufficient supply
was on hand. The initials "VDB" are
those of the designer. V. d. Bremen of
New York, and the single initial in an
inconspicuous place will be left in the
new dies as a recognition of Mr.. Bren-
ner's work
