critio,zea the Administration.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 If you will give an old veteran a little space I would like to reply to some of the explanations of the shortage of the pension money. It has been thoroughly and repeatedly explained. Auditor Bran don has discharged his duty in com pliance with the law. Governor Conner stated that if the law to suppress the sale of whisky was not sufficient he would have laws passed that would be, if 1t exhausted the state treasury.
 When it was seen that the pension ap- propriation was not sufficient to meet the expectations of those who passed the law, why could he not with equal pro- priety say that the old soldiers should have what they are justly entitled to, and have law passed to meet that deficiency as well as other deficient laws in this extra session?
 When the state of Alabama called for volunteers in 1861 to defend her from being invaded we quit our schools and our business and responded to that call, and spent four of the best years of our life serving our good old state and got noth- ing but the honor that was in 1t, and do not get much of that now except once a year.
 When we see so much money appropri- ated for other uses of so much less im- portance we can't help but think we ought to have a better share. When the present state administration was in the campaign running for office the Birming- ham Age-Herald took a decided stand in

New Orleans. September 9.-(Special.)- The annual spring games of the South ern Association of the Amateur Athletic Union will be held in Birmingham next year, according to the latest dope in ath- letic circles.
 c. H. Miles, secretary-treasury of the Birmingham Athletic club, has written Secretary Dl Benedetto in New Orleans about the games.
 q think Birmingham is the best lo- cated city in the south to hold an ath- letic meet" said MT Miles. "It is more centrally located than New Orleans, and besides the Crescent City has had the games a little too often"

 We have not heard of unfriendly criti- cisms being made on those veterans whose letters were printed in The Age Herald. They said just what would have been expected-that their July payment was much less than for other quarters. We who have been interested and worked for these pensions and made donations ourselves to help the needy comrade and his wife or widow and have buried the dead resent the injection of political mud into business that is near our hearts. We distrust those who labor in the cause only in times when politics moves the walters. and become close and dear to comrades and the dear sisters and assume the roll of Moses to lead us out of the bullrushes of short pensions, and the scarcity of those comforts that make a pension duty on the part of the state Each pensioner has got that, and all that, Is due him at the hands of the pension officials when the annual appropriation is exhausted as the law directs. An agita- tion creating distrust where none should exist is injurious for the veteran and also injurious to the country. But no matter how brave in war or generous in peace MT Stuart has been, it is bad judg- ment on his part and that of his friends and associates that works an injury to the needy veteran.

To the Editor of Tho Age-Herald:
 In today's issue of The Age-Herald, ''in past efforts to reach the pole," in your list of explorers from the western hemis- phere. you omit the name of Dr. Israel Hayes. pr. Hayes went first as surgeon for B. K Kune. In the early sixties he went again in command of T think 1t was-the United States" Also third voyage, in 1889 or 1879.

BY F. A. McClelland. Legislative special
writer.
Denver, March 30.-Gov. Shat
roth's efforts to get anything
through the senate have been so
neatly blocked that he is growing
more angry with every passing
hour. Blame for this he fixes to a
large measure on Senator w. ID.
Adams, who has stood tiat-footedly
for what he believes to be right
and what he knows the people OF
the state want. He has not been
stampeded by any of the criticism
that friends of the governor and
r. NJ. Patterson have manufactur-
ed throughout the state, recogniz-
ing how it has been made. Hav-
ing close insight into the real
views of the people, and knowing
lust how the unthiuking may be
made to stir up great noise over
some matter of which they in their
sober senses, would not care a rap,
he has not lost his equilibrium at
any time. The frantic message Of
the governor, the great pressure of

number. Word was taken to Mr..
Wilder, confined in a city hospital,
and he was asked if he could make
special effort and be present.
His doctor cautioned him that he
would go to the house chamber
only at great risk; that it would re-
tard his recovery by many days.
In spite of this Mr.. Wilder deter
mined on taking chances, in order
to help his friends in the chamber.
When he appeared, his head ban
daged, and his pain-drawn face
showed the effort it was to him,
and won the admiration and SYM
patty of all. Worse than that, his
visit proved needless, for some of
those who had sworn to stand solid
for the amended bill, proved trai-
tors. Under the pressure brought
to bear on them by the governor,
two fell away from their allegiance
defeating the motion to concur in
the senate amendments. Now a
conference committee has been
appointed, for the purpose of kill
ing the bill and thus preventing
the possibility of any primary leg
islation.
At this writing the primary
election bill is in conference, the
bank guarantee bill has not been
taken up on second reading by the
senate though at the head of the
calendar for many days, and all the
other bills known as the Demo
cratic platform promises" are held
in senate committees. There is no
hope for any of them during the
regular session.
Rumors that the governor will call
special session are thick and pre-
tend to have the most authentic
foundation. 1t cannot be said now

PUT Them IN SCHOOL.
Dailv IaurenS Advertiser,

The Abbeville Press and Banner deplores
the fact that the court Of general sessions
Just closed there was the dirtiest in the
history Of that county, and says that the
feature Of it was the presence OF 80 many
young girls. In an effort to explain this
fact, our contemporary strays. somewhat
atield when it declares that enforced idle
t he mills villages, is at the root OF the
trouble. The Press and Banner thinks
that the child labor law is at fault anC
ought to be repealed.
In all likelihood our contemporary Is
right about enforced idleness" being al
the root of great deal Of the trouble into
which these young girls and boys have
fallen idle hands are the devils workshop
There is no greater menace to the entire
state than these hundreds OF children
running loose" on the streets, beyond the
pale of any authority. In the streets they
acquire habits that develop into criminal
traits and in the end, the state suffers
Children, from under parental aut thority
and out Of school, cannot and will not grow
into good law abiding citizens.
Now it is fact that the State Of South
Carolina is enforcing idleness upon agreat
number of children in the enforcement OF
the child labor law. But that does not ar
que the injustice or wrong Of that law, it is
one OF the best laws on the statute hooks
But the state is doing an injustice to hel
citizenship in it's failure to enact a Law
that should in reality be counterpart in

work in the mills than have them rui

is not the solution. Put tn3m in school.
