KO[b PREPARING
 ANSWER ID JONES

Montgomery, September 1S.-fSpe- cial)-Action of Judge Thomas G. Jones. former governor of Alabama, in Jumping out of the Conner frying pan has landed him into the Kolb fire. ac- cording to rumors of war brewing In this city as a result of a statement published by Judge Jones on Sunday morning In that statement Judge Jones sought to explain the stormy political period in Alabama history from 1892 to 1894, when he was gov ernor, but in doing so he has enraged Capt. R. F. Kolb, present commissioner of agriculture. who at taht stormy time was independent candidate for gov ernor.
 Judge Jones' statement was primar- ily in answer to former Gov. B. B. Co., mer, who stated several weeks ago that Judge Jones. because of a faulty election count was not righfully gov ernor in 1S92-94, but that rather Cap tain Kolb, his opponent. was elected. Judge Jones refuted the Conner attack, and set forth what he termed the his tory of the two years. But in doing this he has enraged Captain Kolb, who now gives out that he is preparing statement which will prove to the peo- pie that he. Kolb, was elected to of ice by a majority ranging anywhere from 1000 to 60,00o.
 Captain Kolb states in an interview: T cannot let the Jones statement go down Into history as a fact when nc, Jones, and 99-100ths of the people know that 1 was eleceted governor by half a hundred thousand majority.

DIR. WILEY ON THE VALUE
 OF COT"TONSEED OH,

In these days when so much Is being said about the purity of food products, ard the healthfulness of different foods. 1t Is refreshing to hear what the great authority, Dr. Wiley, has to say about cottonseed oil and it's products
 The quotation given is from an ad- dress pr. Wiley made before the Inter- state Crushers association in New York last June.
 You have meritorous article. you have learned how to purify it and make it palatable and attractive and you have everything now but the confi- dence of the public and the knowledge on the part of the consumer how to use your product. Put a little effort in that line. and you will see what wonderful returns you will have. I do not believe there Is man, woman or child in this country. if the consump- tion of cottonseed oil was common to- day throughout this broad land but what would have better health and be a better judge of what is good to eat, and be happier, by reason of his bet ter health. than he Is today so l am for the benefit of the public, l am pleading for a wider publicity of your Ifoduct, for cottonsecd oil as a humO food"

SOUTHERN COTTON MEN NOW DENOUNCE
 LIVERPOOL'S PLAN
CONTINUED FROM PAGE D.

 York city d bureau which validates bills of lading, certifying to genuineness of signatures, it will place the Irresponsible dealer the man who Is speculating on his contracts, the party who is out for the purpose of making what he can on short weights, short grades, under stapling, a standing that he would not have, other wise. It will open. the doors to irregulari- ties that will be much more harmful, much more injurious, losses that will be more serious than those occurring under the one item of forgery. It is not wise. or just. to say that we must sit quietly by and permit them to cast reflection upon our reputable merchants and cause cotton people of this country to incur ad- ditional trouble, additional expense, and the farmers who make the cotton ulti- mately to suffer in the end.''
 MT. Haight said he made the mistake at the start of thinking that the Amer ican Bankers committee represented the southern interests In the 1ading con- troversy. He made due apologies
 He denied that the foreign interests sought to dictate, or that the central clearing house certified all ladings, but that 1t only scrutinized signatures to parties interested were immediately no- tified. MT. Haight talked about three hours.
 MT. Moss of Georgia, who was the only one to vote against the adoption of the resolutions, said he thought there was some merit in the Liverpool plan.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Too Much Antagonism

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Two of our ex-governors, one now a United States judge, both being gentle men, and men of honor, and integrity, seem to have been warmed up for some time by the thought of resentment to one to the other reasonable amount of resentment is a manly thing, but nature incites us to avoid too much of the spirit of antagonism. and in this in stance the public good should control the thoughts and actions of these men. Both of these gentlemen are of a high order of both perhaps have made mistakes
 These ex-governors are looking at this contention from their standpoint and the public is looking al it from another Standpoint, and the latter do not believe that any good can result from it. Calm yourselves. gentlemen, and try to reach better understanding with one another over these disputes; or still better, let them severely alol in the future Gull tisate better and rfore cheerful opinions of each other, and then you will be In condition of mind and heart to give to your fellow citizens better service, both to state and country

IRISH RAIL WAY MEN
 IN GENERAL STRIKE

Dublin. September 1s-A great mass meeting of railway employees was neld tonight and resolution adopted favorinz general strike on the Great Southern and Western, the Great Northern and the Midland Greatwestern, the three prin- cipal railroads in Ireland. So serious do the authorities regard the situation that the Dublin regiment absent for practice maneuvers has been ordered to return to the city.
 Little violence Is reported. The Royal Irish constabulary and the Dublin mount ed police are guarding the railway sta tlons.
 Questions of an increase in wages or shorter hours does not enter into the present trouble. The strike is due to tn. refusal of the three railways to accede the demand for their employees that tho railways decline to handle consignments of timber from firms involved in dis putes with their employees. Men traus- porting timber through the streets were guarded by police, but only one attempt was made to interfere with their passage and 1t was quickly suppressed.
 The decision to call a general strike was anticipated by railway men. especially those connected with the Great Southern and Western with which the trouble orig mated. Enormous quantities of produce and. other perishable freight accumulated at the north wall station. the compauy being utterly unable to handle the in coming supplies.
 At Queenstown tonight the whole sta ton staff with the possible exception of the station master. quit work and the same thing happened at Cork, completely tieing up traffic
