Would Eliminate Politics

Since I have been the head of the de- pertinent I have always been anxious to take the department absolutely out of politics, and I believe that the passage of the above bill would be step to- ward it. By this I do not mean any re- fection whatever on the police commits sioners but am preparing it solely for the protection of the men under me.
 Tn regard to the second measure, I also believe it is good one and will meet the approval of the legislature. When a man has worked 20 years or more on the department it is nothing but right that he should be pensioned on half pay. No one can disparage the idea of allow ing the men who have been permanently disabled in the discharge of their duty half pay On the whole I believe that the two bills will operate to the good of the police department at large and that is what must be done.
 T intend to ask one of the legislators to introduce the bills at the next ses- sion. It is possible that I will com municate with the chiefs of police of Montgomery, Mobile and Selma and con- suit them in regard to the measures"

All Together For Alabamal

All Together For Alabamai
 That is the slogan for the great con- vention that has been called to meet ln Montgomery tomorrow.
 Every man who attends should catch the true spirit. All together for all Ala bama Sectionalism is to be forgotten. There will be no metropolitan Birming- ham, no professional Montgomery, no powerfully sea-faring Mobile, no am- bilious Selma or pushing Gadsden. It is to be all for Alabama, the first state in the national alphabet and the greatest in variety and extent of natural re- sources.
 Senator Bankhead said few days ago at the census jubilee in Birmingham that no equal area could be selected on the map of the world that would compare with Alabama in richness or variety of natural resources.
 A wall might be built about the borders of the state and it's people would be com fortably self-sustaining.
 Baldwin county grows the poppy, cam phor, lemons and tobacco. Steel, cement and brick are produced in the mineral district Corn, cotton and wool are nat ural products. Sugar and rice are ours for the meager toll of toll. All the do- mestic animals necessary for the happi- ness of mankind find congenial grazing ground on our hills and valleys. while the luxuries of life respond to the skill of hand and mind and the call of the balmiest sunshine and shower on the face of the globe.
 Every citizen of Alabama has cause to be proud of Alabama. It is impossible to appreciate her riches. Her opportunities are beyond human estimate.

Retirement Bill

The second bill being prepared by the chief Is a measure which provides for the retirement of officers who have served for 20 years or more on the police force On half pay, the pensioning of officers who have been permanently disabled while in the discharge of their duty, and the half pay of officers who are tenn porarily disabled in the discharge of their duty. This applies to all the cities in the state.
 The measure would be submitted to the voters of the city or town and in the event of rejection would be again pre- sented at the next general election. If passed the money for the pension would be raised by tax among the men them- selves and would be securely invested in city bonds by competent trustees.
 T believe that both of the measures are good for the police department of any city in the state O" for any town," said the chief last night in speaking of the proposed bills "I have given the matter very careful thought and have made provision for the protection of the men under me.

Cotton Crop Report.

Secretary Lawrence Yerger of the penitentiary board of control today turned into the state treasury the nice sum of s90,S97.32, the proceeds of thousand bales of cotton sold by the trustees to the firm of Royce & Co., of New orleans. As yet only 17O0 bales of the states crop have been sold. In dIcations are that the total peniten- tialy crop of cotton will be in the neighborhood of 4500 bales which will aid beautifully in tiding over the stringency in the states exchequer.

salers in Kansas City. st. Joseph and
Omaha filed a complaint with the inter
state commerce commission, alleging
that the rates charged by carriers oper-
ating between points on the Atlantic
seaboard and Missouri river cities on
traffic originating at the seabOard and
destined to these cities were unjust and
unreasonable. After many hearings and
several parties had interviewed. an order
was issued by the commission directing
the railroads doing business between
the Mississippi river crossings and the
Missouri river to reduce their rates as
a part OF the through rates on ship
ments.
The railroads in the west and ship
pers, jObbers and wholesalers in the
east. but outside OF the seaboard terri
tory. went into the courts. The circuit
court OF the United States for the
northern district OF Illinois enjOined the
on the ground that IL worked an I'M
just discrimination against the inter
mediate localities and shippers. The
commission and business men in Mis-
souri, river cities appealed from the de-
cision of the circuit court.
Counsel asked the court to give them
thirty days TO file a petition for re-
hearing. Solicitor General Bowers OBJ
jected on the ground that such would
prevent the rates from going into eff
feet before the court met next October.
Chief Justice Fuller directed that the
mandate of the court issue in thirty
days unless a petition for rehearing
was filed.
The court affirmed the Judgment OF
the lower court in favor OF the Atchi-
son. Topeka & Santa Fe company.
whose charter was also being threat
ened because IL had removed a suit
from state 70 a federal court.

friends helped to swell the crowd and
add TO the general good time. While

the heat the jewellers at Saltair divid-
ed their time between bathing I'm the
buoyant salt water or in dancing in
the mammoth pavilion.
Today is society day at Saltair,
