Washington. May 27.-(Special )-To a. big delegation of Mobile citizens who called upon him today to invite him to visit that city next fall President Taft said that he did not know yet whether he would go south at the time of his west ern trip, but if he did so he would certainly visit Mobile
 The delegation, consisting of Mayor P. J. Lyon and representatives from various bodies of the city introduced by Senators Johnston and Bankhead, and Representa- tves Taylor and Hefiin expressed the most cordial desire to see the President in Alabama. H. L. Russell, chairman of the delegation, told the President that the people of the south had a profound ap- preciation of his intelligent and patriotic course, and were looking forward to an able and practical administration of na- tonal affairs. The invitation was then formally extended, being engraved upon large silver plate. The inscription upon the plate Is as follows: The citizens Of ard Taft, President of the United States of America, the honor of visit on the occasion of his southern trip in the fall of 1909. A welcome commensurate with trie southern hospitality is assured by the city made historic under the folds of five flags. The city which stands at the mouth of the second largest river system on this continent, is Alabama's S outlet to the sea and the natural gateway to Pan anna"
 President Taft will send to the Senate in a short time the nomination of a man to be surveyor of the port of New Or leans.
 Colonel Gibson, the former surveyor, died some weeks ago. and the two fac tons in the republican party in the state are fighting over the office.
 The state chairman of the faction large ly composed of negro voters has put for ward q man named Brookshire, while the : asi T faet.9a, headed by Pearl Wight na- tional committeeman, has indorsed ". J. Bryant. The decision will be a federal recognition of one faction or the other MT Wight was in conference with Pres ident Taft today and there seems little doubt that the President will name man agreeable to the national committeeman. Whether this man will be Bryant is not known, but it will be some man politically friendly to MT. Wight.
 In the recent appointment of Gen. w. J. Behan as postmaster of New Orleans the administration stood by the Wight faction, although the colored faction did not consider that test case. not making serious objections to General Behan.
 The republican national committee be- fore the Chicago convention. passed reso- lutions providing for the reorganization of the republican party in Louisiana, but no steps have been taken in that direction and none will be taken according to pres ent plans The national organization will recognize the lilly whites as the reg ular organization and practically all the federal patronage will go to its members.

Intimate Correspondence
From Washington
washington. ID. c.. June Q.
BY RATH


Washington, ID. c.. June 9.
Dear Dad
The lobbyists are keeping in mighty
close touch with their United States
senators these days. A few days ago
was in the card gallery OF tho SEN
ate, when Senator Foster, OF Louis
lana, was defending the sugar trust.
Directly behind me sat II. Il. Oxnard,
OF the beet sugar annex TO the sugar
trust. In front OF me sat sugary-
looking gentleman who held in his
hand a typewriter statement which
was a duplicate OF that from which
Foster was reading. II had the fig
ures on Russian and other foreign
tariffs. and the man in front OF me
seemed more familiar with the figures
than the senator on the floor. Mean
time. Oxnard had messenger boy
in the seat behind him. and from time
to time he scrubbed notes and sent
them by the boy 10 the senate floor.
Later tried to enter Senator Bur-
rows committee room and found Ok
nard and the sugar crowd. including
F. II. Hathaway, OF the Michigan Beet
Sugar association. in the room. The
door was opened on a crack. and !
was asked what I wanted. AS | rep
resented no special interest. and had
only a commission from the people. |
apologized and withdrew.
And speaking Of defending the SUI
gar trust. Did you see the play made
by Senator Burrows? He had taken
an hour or SO OF the senate's time
showing how impossible II would ever
be to strike the guilty sugar trust
without hitting the innocent farmer
who grows sugar beets. This went all
right; but, in order TO clinch the argu-
ment, IL became necessary TO show
that the sugar beet factories OF Mich
igan are not a part OF the sugar trust.
So Burrows came 10 his climax. Swell
ing his chest, and pulling out the
crescendo stop. he struck an attitude,
and held up TO the more or less as
tonishsd gaze OF the senate bunch
Of yellow papers.
what do held In my hand?" he
queried himself.
"Affidavits," he answered himself.
From whom" he urged himself 10
tell
From the directors of the beet SUI
gar factories OF Michigan" he re-
vealed
"And what are they about?" he
pressed himself To tell.
About the ownership OF the beet
sugar factories" he consented to dis
close.
And then, with all the wind in the
bellows. and all the volume OF the
base and second keyboard, he just let
the senate have IL. Just hurled the
SANDER back at the teeth OF the
well of everybody everywhere. There
wasn't. isn't, couldn't be and never
might be any such thing as an al
lance between the sugar trust and
the beet sugar people Amen.

I But Il appeared the next day. on
careful examination Of the record. tnat
the afiidavits were all from the rae
tories which never have been suspect
ed OF being owned by the sugar trust.
There was no affldavit-no sworn word

dominate the business, and whose
stock is held I'm trust by a man named
