Captain Mhite'S Viewpoint

The point of view is important. Capt. Frank S. White, speaking from his point of view, thinks Senator Bankhead should be rotated out of the senate just as he has secured a place on the committee on commerce which will enable him to se- cure appropriations for Alabama's harbor and rivers. This is the way the matter looks from Captain Whites po.nt of view.
 But the point of view of the people of Alabama is wholly different They want in the senate the man who can serve them the best-who can secure the largest appropriations and the greatest benefits. John H. Bankhead can make a set speech if the occasion demands one, but he much prefers to work in the committee rooms for the people of Ala bama, and all know what he has accom- plished. It was he who began the work for the opening of the Warrior and if he is kept in the senate he will yet open every navigable river in this state
 Does Captain White claim that he could, If elected, secure place on Llle committee on commerce? He could not do so in many years of service, if at all.
 In assailing MT. Bankheads length of service, Captain White has made d mis- take, for the other people of Alabama have not the same viewpoint that Captain White has at present.

HatJerS' boycott Decision

In 1902 the hat factory of Loewe X Co, in Danbury. Conn, refused to unionize their shop. A strike followed and also boycott, and this boycott of the Loewe hats was indorsed by and the American Federation of Labor.
 The case was tried last November and decision has just been rendered in the United States circuit court by which it is declared that every mem. Der of the Hatters union and of the American Federation of Labor is re- sponsible for the acts and statements of the officers of those great labor or ganizations. In other words, the pres ent verdict for s224,000 stands against every member of those organizations. The case now goes to the United States circuit court of appeals and it may ul- timately go to the United States su '. preme court.
 The decision not only condemns the boycott as illegal, but it aims to make membership in q labor union one of great risk and responsibility. It may lead to the repeal of the sherman on that law. If the capitalists and the the Sherman law they will be very apt to effect something in the way of re- neal

From the New York World.
 Statistics of the board of health show that more than 8 per cent of the pupils in the upper grades of the elementary schools suffer From ocular defects, and that this percentage increases from grade to grade through the schools. The con- cusion Is that sucn marked increase in defects of vision Is caused by the amount of close work required by the present curriculum, both in the school room and at home.
 With q view to putting in practice the essential rules for the preservation of good eyesight. the women principals sug- gest that a label with the following re- minders printed on 1t be pasted in all schoolbooks and library books:
 Your eyes are worth more to you than any book. Safety and success in life depend on the eyes. therefore take care of them.
 Always hold your head up when you read.
 Hold you bookNf4 inches from your face.
 Never read in dim or fiickering light. Never read with the sun shining di- rectly on your book.
 Don't face the light in reading, but have 1t come from behind, or over your left shoulder.
 Avoid books or papers printed indis- tinctly or in small type.
 Rest your eyes every few moments by looking away from the book.
 "Bathe your eyes night and morning with pure water"
 These suggestions are worth keeping in mind by every one. It is fact proved
 atio investigation that the great majority Of street accidents. resuI.ng in all sorts of serious consequences from loss of limb to loss of life itself. are due to the defective eyesight of the person injured

Alabama Churches

Dr. Thomas M. Owen has tabulated re- cent statistics relating to the leading protestant churches of the state The Baptists have 179,655 members, while the Methodists have 1ls, 7S5. Presumably these figures relate to whites only. The Pres byterians come next with 21,955 members, the Episcopalians have 9fs, and the Christians s65o.
 The congregational expenses of the Baptists were last year ssS.SO; of the Methodists, .55o,549; of the Presbyterians, s1sO,670; of the. Episcopalians, s11O,5O4. / The Baptists gave away last year s1ss,- 540, chiefly at home, while the Methodists spent at home ss4.9es, and gave to foreign missions s5S, 1s6. The Presbyterians spent at home sss, ,7a2, and to foreign missions they gave sl6,9l3. The Episcopalians spent s14, 7ss at home. and ssS75 in foreign lands. According to MT. Owens figures the Presbyterians gave the most per capita to foreign missions, and the Baptists the least.

 Sam Meyers, the booking agent, received an invitation to attend an Eastside we'd ding, and treasures the document as he would Koh-i-noor. He thinks 1t is unique of its kind, and perhaps it is. This is how the invite reads:

My youngest daughter, now 42, going oa tah is to be married, though no one should take her from me. Her front name is Rachel; her kackname has nothing to do with the ceremony.

Federal Incorporation Bill

The terms of the administration in. corporation bill have been settled ana the bill is now before both houses of Congress. The bill as it stands diff fers in many respects from the meas ure first prepared by Attorney General Wickersham.
 It provides that no corporation de. siripg federal charter can hold stock in any other corporation, and this would therefore shut out all holding companies until they are reorganized.
 Another prominent feature of the Dill forbids any violations of the Sher. man antitrust act or other laws of the United States. All federal charters are subject to. federal supervision, ana the Attorney General is given powe1 in the bill to bring forfeiture proceed. furs. and the court may appoint re. 's \ eeivsr.

A WOMAN AT MONTE CARLO

At last we were actually within the un- hallowed precincts. All was as quiet (by contrast, one may suppose) as a church. cosmopolitan, almost mongrel, crowd moved, half shuffied, in or out or from able to table and around each expanse of green baize spacious crowd of all sorts and conditions of men and women, two, three and four rows deep. They were of all ages, and all bore an equally intent and strained expression Life was as intense as in the wheat pit of Chi cago at a scare period.
 On the game and it's devotees, the haggard men and women, as bleary of eye as if they were dissipated by over feeding and overdrinking, all working with little cards and little pencils in a vain endeayor to follow up some system. one need not enlarge. The story has been told before and often; there Is noth- ing new to be said. There is no infalli- ble rule to break the bank at Monte Carlo, and most of the reports to that effect are simply advertisements.
 Of course, we had our fling. Once hay ing passed the portals. it was no longer difficult; we were free to lose as much money as we had, or we might win q little, or even much. The bank would not worry either way; it was all in the days work, and the law of average, if not the law of justice, is always on the side of the gold battalion.
 The insidious ''wheeP' looked to us to be the best run for our money, and the simple rouge ct noir the least fatigulng play for inexperienced females. At five france time you may back red or black to come up on the next turn of the wheel, and you may elevate or lower your hopes about once every three min utes. Fifteen minutes reduced the work ing capital of 50 francs with which we had decided to plunge to next to noth- ing, and the next fifteen minutes saw it all back again, and 20 francs oyer. when we withdrew.

WnnI Good Roa.ls.

"The people of Alexander City and that portion of Talapoosa county are determined in their efforts for ths building of good roads, said A. F. Fuquay, who is spending some time In | the Birmingham district as special rep resentative for tho Interstate Casualty Insurance company.
 Some weeks ago the business men of Alexander City met and organized the Alexander City Goods Roads as- sociation. In a very short time the sum of S4000 was raised for the im- proyement of the main roads leading out Of the town. There are II main roads touching Alexander City
 "The county commissioners have pledged themselves to put up sums equal to any raised by any organiza : tion in the county for the improvement of roads. At a recent meeting of the executive committee of the Alexander City association the sum of s110O was placed in the hands of it's local over seers to be applied at once to the roads requiring immediate attention.
 The farmers living on the roads leading out of the town are interested m the movement and it is very probable that the $4ooo fund already raised will be swelled to s10,0C0 in a very short time by tn cir subscriptions. This with the amount pledged by the county com missioners will give s20,0OO for the im~ mediate improvement of the roads lead ing out of Alexander City.
 The Iseople of the town and com munity are greatly aroused over the building of better roads and there will be no let up until every highway IS permanently improved
