Washington, April 15.--The President
today sent to Congress a special mes
sage in relation to the Philippine tar
iff. This message transmits recon-
mendatinns by the secretary of war for
a revision of the Philippine tariff sc as
to permit as much customs revenue as
possible fer the islands and at the same
time to extend to the islands the prin-
ciple Of protective tariff for it's in
dustIeS.
Under the conditions which will arise
from the enactment1of the tariff bill
pending in Congress, which provides
under certain conditions for free trade
between the Philippines and the United
States, the revenues of the island will
be considerably affected and numer-
GUS protests have been received here
on this account. The proposed amend
mcnts to the bill are to interfere as
little as possible with free trade con-
ditions and at same tim" permit col
lectiuns of ample revenue.

mained unbroken until the early
morning of September I, 1909, the
summons came and William Nesbit
passed to the great beyond at the ripe
age of SO years, months.
He was always a home-body, seldom
absent for any length of time and the
familiar figure of "Uncle Billy as he
was called among us, known to four
generations of this neighborhood, will
be sadly missed. He was an upright
citizen, kindly neighbor, an honest
industrious man.
He has passed to his reward and why should
we mourn?
Light be the turf on thy tomb,
May its verdure like emeralds be
There should not be the shadow gloom,
In ought that reminds us Of thee.
Young flowers, an evergreen tree,
May spring from the spot OF thy rest
But, nor cypress nor yew let US see,
For why should we mourn for the blest :"
CARD OF THANKS.
Mrs. William Nesbit desires to ex.
press her appreciation and thanks to
her friends and neighbors who sc
kindly assisted during the illness and
death of her beloved husband, viii

FINANCIAL AFTERMATH
FAIR SECRETARY PAYS UP PRE-
 MIUMs AND PRIZES.
Plans for Next season's Fair Already Broached-Prospecfs Favorable For Perpetuatton of In-
 stitution.

Since the gates at vandiver Park were closed for the 1909 State Fair. Major E. E. winters. Secretary of the Alabama Agricultural Association. has been busy figuring up the premium winners and sending out checks to them covering the amount of their prizes. He sent out his last checks saturday and the final business details of the fair have been about completed.
 Major Winters said that the Fair had been a success in almost every department, and he was greatly pleas ed with the results. One gratifying feature, he said, was the fact that a Southern Alabama County won the first premium in county agricultural exhibits. Baldwin County took the si.00o, and Major Winters is of the opinion that this will have stimu- lating effect on the other southern counties of the state and induce more of them to enter displays of the re- sources of their counties.
 The S1,o00 premium. as first prize. was a great drawing card for the counties of the State this year. How sever, Major winters thinks that diff ference between the first and second premium was too great this year. as the second prize was only $500. It Is expected that next year the second prize will be raised to $75o, and the third premium $500. This will also be a great inducement for moro of the counties of the state to enter exhib- 1t.
 It has been proposed for next year to have the railroads offer low rates from North Alabama to Montgomery during the State Fair and have reg ular home seekers day This will ai- low some of the Northern farmers chance to view the advantages and possibilities of the climate and soil m Alabama.
 There appears to be considerable talk rife at present as to whether the State Fair will be permanent insti- tuition. Major Winters said Sunday evening that all that was necessary to make the fair a permanent enterprise was for the local merchants and man ufacturers to guarantee and raise about $s.o0o each year to cover the premiums. The balance of the fair would take care of itself. Major Win ters Is of the opinion that 1t will be a permanent institution

STETSON ANSWERS

Annoyed By Headline Tn Morning Pa per, ChFistfan Science Leader w-ttes Her o,sn Ss'ry spd

New York. Nov. 7.---Annovance at { headline in a morning paper whici said: Mrs. Stetson's Followers Def, The Mother Church" today prompted Mrs. Augusta E. stetson. the former frst reader of the First Churcn o Christ Scientist, to write her cwr newspaper story and her own head lines. The latter read:
 Mrs. Stetsons answer. Declares hei loyalty to the mother church. Elm, phaticaliy denies MT. Strickler's Inter pretations of her teacaings.'
 These captions appear cn f,us rage type sritten statement which Irs Stetson's secretary distributed tcEight in her home on Central Park, West, ad. Joining the church O. whicn she was the recent leader and fr Jm which posi. ton she was deposed because of alleg. ed mental mal-practicie." Of this charge she was acquitted by board of inquiry and the verdict of exonera- tion was endorsed last week by the congregation of the church. but the controversy continues. Mrs. Stetson reafflrms her allegiance 70 the mot c, church in the following wo.ds:
 T wish to state here most empbsti- caliy that I do not deny the nio'ner church neither do my followers.
 Answering the charges that she had attempted to Invoke evil by thought upon the heads of certain persons. she says of Virgil o. Strickler, the present first reader and her opponent;
 T was surprised that he (St-ickier) seemingly could not grasp the metaphy- sicai points that there is a difference between mental malpractice and self defense. I will give as an illustration what I understood the difference to be l IA al pA tndfa- pensable defense. or seif-protection: If I felt sure that was being attacked. either ignorantly or maliciously by any person, should fill my thought with the qualities of God, truth and love, which alone renders one invincible ot whatever proceeds from the carnal mind. From this fortress of defense, should speak to the person. addressing him by name, and then speak to the error which might be operating through the human mind, for which he has been an avenue Then should declare that malicious animal magnetism in all It's phases and forms was powerless to work through his human personality using him as an avenue to injure me or any one, or to hinder the progress of Christian science. It Is the super. fority of spiritual power over material sense and is not malpractice"
 There was an unusually large atten- dance at the First Church today, eyi- dently in anticipation of some develop ment of the controversy involving Mrs stetson and Strickler, who was wit ness against Mrs. Stetson at Boston It was announced after the services that e special meeting would be held at D. m on November Is.
