Cullman, August 24.-(Special.)- IA meeting of the county republican executive committee has been called and will be held in Cullman tomorrow. Men will be selected to oppose F. F.. St. John for state senator and A. A. Griffith for representative from Gull man county. MT. Sloan of Blount coun- ty, who was given the republican nom- ination for state senator from the Third district at the meeting of the republican party in Birmingham on July has withdrawn his name from the ticket to accept the nomination of his party for the circuit judgeship of the Tenth judicial circuit, and MT. Burdict, the republican nominee for representative, has withdrawn from the race because of other business.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York August M.-(Special.)-A dull market ruled at small concessions from yesterdays closing prices. Advices of an approaching storm from the gulf cre- ated an impression that Texas might have rains this week.
 From the other states reports continue to be favorable. so few buying orders are received. Tn fact, the markets are awaiting developments. Offers of new cotton of high grade from Texas are coming into competition with the offers at reduced prices from our stock. We hear of some mills shipping here for delivery on August with the intention to replace from these southern offerings.
 There still remains short interest In August limited in volume, though the trade thinks there may be enough buy CTS to cause an advance in August from these prices.

Dry Goods

New York, August 24.-The call for spot goods or cotton fabrics for deliv- cry in the near future was of moderate proportion during the day. The mills were not disposed to make contracts for late positions, owing to the uncertainty of the raw cotton situation. Prices are very firm and the market Is steady. There Is better demand for silk goods. Ho- siery is not in active call for prompt delivery and the spring orders booked are light.

BILL ALLOWING FOREST SCHOOL
LAND FOR FOREST RESERVE
FAvoRs THE WEST.
APPLE MEASURE FAILS
COLORADO FRUIT GROWERS FA-
voR sTANDARD-sIzE BOXES IN
INTERSTATE COMMERCE.

Washington.-The House Wednes-
day passed the Hamer bill, authorizing
the various Western states to Telin-
quish title to scohol sections includ-
ed in forest reservations and take in
exchange therefor an equal area of for
est reserve land lying in compact
bodies, provided the land so taken Is
of equal value of that relinquished.
These exchanges, before becoming et-
fective, are to be approved by the sec
retary of agriculture.
This bill, if it passes the Senate,
will permit all western states to adjust
their school land contests that have
long been pending before the Interior
Department, for exchanges may De
made regardless of whether the forest
reserves are surveyed, the department
having held it can determine the
amount of school land in all reserves
without surveys.
1t is contemplated that under this
bill the states will select land lying at
accessible points along the exterior
boundaries of the reserves, so that the
land when offered for sale will find
ready buyers. The isolation of school
land sections in the heart of reserves
rendered them practically worthless to
the states, but this bill will place in
the hands of the states land that can
be sold at will.
The House committee on agriculture
today put quietus for the present ses-
sion on the Lafean bill to provide for
a standard size of boxes used for ship
ping apples in interstate commerce, by
voting against reporting the bill. The
vote was nine against the bill to six
for it, with three absentees, two OF
whom are known to be against the
measure.
Colorado fruit growers favored the
bill but there was strong opposition to
it from Washington, Oregon and Mon
tana.

shoemakers' wax years upon years
ago, but even their pleasure in molar
activity is far antedated.
Christopher Columbus left behind
him letter which proves conclusiyely
that chewing gum was used more than
400 years ago, and that he regarded
it as of sufficient Importance to offer
some to Ferdinand and Isabella as
part of his inducement to them to
finance his second expedition to the
new world He offered to bring them
as much gold as they would need, as
many slaves as their navy would re-
quire, chewing gum, spices, etc. The
gum, he said, was to come from Chios,
and it has been reasoned from this
that the chewing gum of Columbus
day was a sort of gummy clay. which
was reputed to have medicinal quail
ties.
But the habit of chewing gum may
be traced even beyond Columbus
time. According to an ancient Sans
krit poem the soft-eyed Hindoo maid
en-, even in the times when the Aryan
sun worshipers were a budding peo-
pie, had the habit of chewing kashnir
gums, which were supposed to sweet
en- the breath, redden the lips and
color the cheeks.
The story of the discovery of the
availability of chicle for chewing pur-
poses reads like romance and in
wolves some of the leading characters
of American history. If Gen. Sam
Houston had not banished Santa Anna
from Texas, or if the attempt to make
gum shoes from chicle had not proved
Il failure, the chewing gum habit, as
America knows it, might not have
been acquired by our people. Back
in the '40's a young man from New
Jersey went to Mexico. where he made
the acquaintance of Santa Anna. He
spent some time in that country and
then returned home. When Santa
Anna was banished from Texas he
went to New York, looked up the
young friend of his better days and,
it is said, lived with him incognito for
some time. During his stay he sug-
gested to his host that the sap of a
certain Mexican tree might be made
into gum overshoes. When he re-
turned to Mexico he sent bale oi
raw. hard gum for experimentation
The effort to prepare the stuff for
gum shoes was a failure. and big
chunk of it was relegated to the wood
shed as useless.
But the boys of the neighborhood
soon set aside the useless" verdict
They began whiting off pieces of the
gum for chewing purposes. This was
a suggestion to the father and he

New Pension Bill.

Washington.-A pension bill OF
sweeping provisions under which all
surviving volunteer officers of the
United States army who served six
months or more would receive retired
pay according to length of service, and
all honorably discharged enlisted men
over seventy years of age and suffer
ing certain degree of disability,
would receive straight pension OF $50
per month, was reported to the House
Wednesday by Representative Prince
of Illinois from the committee on mill
tary affairs.
In recommending the measure, the
committee report says that although
the volunteer troops formed ninety
six per cent. of the armies OF
the United States and achieved
ninety-six per cent. of the his
toric results the regular officers
have received all the honors and re-
wards of the government, and the vol

has been worked by some of the great
est frauds in Christendom to subserve
their own ends. The man who is
seeking popularity, posing for 1t,
angling for it, usually doesn't deserve
1t. Keep your admiration for men
who show you their real selves, who,
when they are bothered or worried,
or mad, or glad, make it manifest by
appropriate facial expression, and
who are not constantly standing them
selves before the mirror.

NewfoundIand,s Bad Record.

The Newfoundland Society for the
Prevention of tuberculosis is carrying
on a vigorous and necessary campaign
this year in the island. The death
rate from the disease in Newfoundland
is very large. About one in every
five of the total population dies of it.,
and, what is worse, in the last six
Yeas the death rate, which is sta
tionary or decreasing elsewhere, has
Increased about so per cent. This is
due largely to the native horror Of
fresh air in the house.
