EDUCATIONAL MEET

 Colleges

University, November 1.-(Special)- During the next two days the Univer- sity of Alabama will be the host of the Association of Colleges and Preparatory schools of the southern states, and from all information it will be one of the greatest meetings that the associa- tion has ever held. It will surely be the greatest gathering of educators that has been held at the university since 1906, when distinguished men from all over the country came here to join in the celebration of the seventy fifth anniversary of the institution.
 No efforts have been spared either by the officers of the association or by the local committee on arrangements to make the meeting a success from the point of interest and attendance. h. vitations sent out to the various schools and colleges of the south have brought ready responses. Institutions from Maryland to Texas and from Missouri to Florida have signified their inten- tion of sending representatives. And, of course, there will be large repre- sentation from Alabama schools, for this state is perhaps more keenly in terested in educational affairs than any other in the south.

ONLY ONE CHOICE
 FOR PRESIDENT J. Fall RObersOn Says Un- derwOOd Is Man for South
 to Nominate

J. Fall Roberson, who represents St. Clair county in the lower house of the legislature, is another prominent Ala bamian who believes that Oscar W. Underwood has an excellent chance to land the democratic presidential nom ination, and, subsequently,, the presi- dency of the United States. q am for Underwood and therefore, for no other man." he said. "I do not believe in the fence straddling' policy of nominating one man and naming an- other to take his place. We have a great opportunity to put a southerner in the chair of the President, and the opportunity is found in the fact that MT. Underwood stands high in the re- gard of the business element of the nation. It Is an opportunity which we should grasp with hoops of steel. "The moment is one for open fight ing Let those who are for Underwood only for reasons of expediency declare themselves. It is not the appropriate hour for 'damning him with feint praise"
 MT. Taft's Confession
 There are many reasons why we should feel hopeful of national demo-  cant of all is in the statement made by President Taft in Chicago the other night
 "He was speaking before the Hamil- ton club, sOne of the most influential re- publican organizations of the middle west It was on a happy occasion, ana from the reports of the press the audi ence was in high state of enthusiasm And Taft plainly stated. without hls customary smile, that there was reason to fear the success of the democrats
 Taft was speaking from his heart He had just traversed many of the western states, and had spoken on live issues to vast gatherings of people He had noted a lack of interest real interest, although the applause of the ushers was boisterous at times. And Taft plainly saw the handwriting on the wall.
 "Therefore his journey nearly com pleted, tired by physical eXertion, sick at heart, and unable, In view of his inward belief, to rejoice at the shouts of his hearers, MT. Taft simply coughed, and the truth came out. The statement of MT. Taft. in my opinion, was nothing more or less than confession of the weakness of his party. His own people so construed that statement.
 He has admitted that the democratic iron is red hot, and that all Wnlch re- mains Is for us to strike.
 Primary or Convention "It is matter of indifference to me whether the democrats of Alabama name the delegates to the national con- vention in primary or in a state con vention. I am satisfied that MT Un. derwood would be the unanimous choice of a state convention, and that ie T tial ,,,iy,1 a r1y O sweep the state from the Tennessee to the gulf.
 "He will get 100 votes to every five cast for Wilson, and therefore, there will ebe no such thing as a second choice. He will be nominated as unan
 mously as one could be in a primary.
 T hope that the national convention will be held in Baltimore, where the
 last democratic President before Cleve land was nominated Baltimore has made stiff fight to land the honor, and deserves it,'

A WRECK AT WHAT CHEER
TEN LOADED CARS OF COAL GO
INTO THE DITCH.
Cause of Wreck is Not Determined,
Unless it Was Broken
Truss Rod.

What Cheer, Ia, Oct. Especial :
Ten loaded coal cars and box cars on
the Northwestern Railway went into
the ditch Tuesday afternoon at a
point about two miles southeast of
this place. They piled up in a great
tangled mass of wreCkage on the
right-of-way, tore up the track and
closed the line to traffic until late this
forenoon. The cause of the wreck is
not determined, but it is possible that
a broken truss rod" falling from the
bottom of one of the cars caused the
truck to leave the rails and spread
the track. Nine other cars followed.
The wrecking crew from Belle PLANE
had to be called to clear the wreck.
A week or ten days will be required
to reload the spilled and scattered
fuel
