CHANGES IN FLOWERS
Many of Our Most Beautiful Ones Are
 Modern Productions

From the Strand.
 It is a truly astounding thing to reflect that Shakespeare, for all his love of flow CTS, would have been able to name scarce ly a single bloom in a twentieth cen- able to distinguish the queen of flowers itself, so greatly has the rose changed in the last three centuries
 As for the begonias, the chrysanthe- nuns, the dahlias. the geraniums, the fuchsias and carnations, there were un- known even to our grandfathers Many of our most beautiful flowers are purely modern productions.
 Three centuries ago there were no flow CT gardens in England. What were then thought of as gardens were herbaria, places where rosemary mint, rue, thyme and sage grew, and perhaps a few prim- itive blooms, such as vioets and prim- roses, were suffered to exist, much as peoples and cornflowers do today
 Many well known plants have been de- veloped from specimens discovered in va- rious parts of the world, and there is no doubt that a number of charming nov cities are still lurking undiscovered in remote spots. The chances of valuable finds are, however. becoming unfortunate ly less every year. A small army Of collectors is always at work In every corner of the world searching for new treasures to enrich our floral store.
 From South America came many years ago the recently unfashionable fuchsia from the hills of northern India and Tibet have been brought many useful varie- ties; from China we have had among other things many new primulas; Japan has yielded wonderful irises Africa many varied plants, usually of most brilliant and gorgeous coloring; while numerous charming members of the narcissus fam fly have been discovered in the Pyre- nees.
 But thls cannot continue indefinitely, and even in the realm of orchids, for which perhaps the most systematic search of all is made. there is not much left to be explored. For our future novelties we shall have to rely chiefly on the skill of our hybrdists, who are constantly en- gagged In mating different species of the same family of plants, and our cross fertilizers, who are doing similar worl, with different varieties of the same spe- cies. The flowers of today are the result of cross breeding, stimulated by electric ity. drugs and hot water baths

stock at Newmarket in December have in- creased in volume and importance year by year, and the occasion is taken advantage of by owners and breeders to send up large drafts from their stables and studs. This year the sales have been particularly successful, and, as usual. many of the lots have been purchased for abroad. Dur ing the five days a record was reached in the disposal of 5S3 lots for $94762S, well passing the figures of a twelvemonth ago, when the total sum realized was Ssl0000.
 At a meeting of the British Olympic as- sociation this week, it was announced that the cost of sending the United King dom representatives to Stockholm would be at least $22, GOO. Tine association has that amount in hand. and, therefore, no appeal for funds will be made at present. After the 1912 festival, however. the ques- tion of further participation or otherwise will have to be considered, and, should it be decided to continue, ways and means will have to be determined for finding he money. Mention is made of this becaunse the methods In England differ so much from those in vogue elsewhere.

STICKNEY WILL
 MANAGE SELMA

Selma December 3O.-(Special.)- Captain B. R. Howard of the Selma club of the Southeastern league this morning signed Link Stickney as man ager of the club during the approach ing season. MT. Stickney played inde- pendent ball in Selma summer before last and during that season won for himself large number of friends here who feel assured that he will put a good club in the Southeastern league for Selma this summer and that there will be a chance of 1t winning the pen nant.
 MT. Stickney Is we'll known in base- ball circles througout the south and for a few years past has been playing and managing different clubs in the Cotton States league. He Is a good ball player

Is not the object in view when urinary election is held to give voters an opportunity to select from the can didates the one person preferred apoFe al others to fill certain position Wllh- in the gift of the votersY
 Why are we called upon to assume that our choice will not be the choice of the delegates that will name our presidential candidate for 19l2Y
 If there are good reasons why others will not prefer our choice, should not such evidence be frankly laid before inc, voters of this as well as other states, and if the evidence that any other candidate Is more available or
 more certain to succeed than our choice -shouId we not favor such candidate?
 Have we not the right to assume that the Hon. oscar Underwood would not countenance the uplift for his pre- ferment if there were others that could lead the party successfully and his can didacy would result in defeat?
 Is is not true that those that are not influenced by personal feelings or similar motives are aiding the move ment to make MT Underwood our na- tional standard bearer, and because the unbiased realize that his candidacy will secure such a following that success will follow his nomination? Ability to properly fill the presiden- tial chair Character, so that no charge against candidate will affect the party to it's detriment; and
 Vote getter, having qualifications that will not only lead the regulars to do their duty, but that will cause the independent voter to enlist under the party's banner.
 These are admittedly the three requi- sites necessary to success. | Has not Alabama the only candidate so qualified? Against his past record nothing can be said to his detrlment. either socially or politically. His dem ocracy is of the Jeffersonian type, he 1 is as firm as Old Hickory, his charity as broad as Lincoln's, his kindness and | consideration of others as pronounced as McKinley's, and as conservative as Cleveland. He has no new gospel to proclaim--no isms to defend-the con stitution as written by the fathers his only political guide.
 1 Has any other candidate so far named the long experience In National Pub | lie Life" that ours has; that Is so well equipped Intellectually and temperament tally?
 'Wll not certain states cast their votes for the nominee of our party--no matter which of those so far named is chosen Is it not almost certain that there are states that will vote for the regular nom inee of the republican party?
 Is 1t not good generalship in our op- posing party to aid by suggestion and otherwise the naming of an opposing candidate that will be the weakest in closely contested states?
 Was not Mir. Bryan defeated by the vote of the independent citizen that does not always follow his party?
 Is 1t not true that since the~<war be- tween the states we have elected our candidates three times and seated our candidates but twice?
 Was not the campaign for MT. Tilden and the campaign for Mir. Cleveland won on the tariff and economy in govern ment expenditures?
 Who so ftly represents the old ortho-

votes to win. General Hancock was 30 votes short of the required number.
 A change of less than 37O0 votes in the states of Connecticut, New Hampshire and Oregon would have given him the three states named-but would not have elected him. A change of less than per cent of the total vote cast in New York state would have elected General Hancock with il electoral votes to spare
 President Cleveland won over MT. Blaine by less than the one-twentieth of 1 per cent in New York state and not because MT. Blaine had any unkind feelings to- wards the Hcly Catholic church, but be- cause MT. Burchard, in his address in New York city said the democratic party was dominated by rum, Romanism and rebellion.
 These citations of facts-not personal fancies-shouid be guide posts for us in our selection So far no one named as a probable candidate by any party Is as strong with the regular and Independent voter in the doubtful or close states as our own Hon. Oscar Underwood.

QUESTIONS TO PONDER
By R. H. LEINAD

doX ideas of Jeffersonian democracy as our MT. Underwood?
 Is not our candidate a conceded au- thority on the tariff?
 Has he cast one single vote during his long service in Congress that was not for economy and for the peoples best
 interests?
 Ought we not remember that MT. Taft secured a large vote from our party by reason of his course in the Philippines
 in relation to the lands owned by the friars?
 Can anyone truthfully say that of all the candidates our MT. Underwood would not poll as many votes as any other so far named-among this important and patriotic class of citizens?
 Is it not the part Of wisdom TOT us to choose the strongest candidate in states that have great electoral strength, and that are considered un- certain by both the great partiesf
 Why should Alabamians assume that Governor Wilson or Governor Harmon or Speaker Clark will be our nom- inee?
 Why shall our voters be asked to stop at the naming of a second choice? why not a third-a fourth--a fifth, and so on to the end of the chapter-if they are to register a second choice:
 Why name delegates at all? Would 1t not do as well to send printed in- structions to the secretary of the con- yention as to send automatons? I have attended many state and na- tional conventions and instructed del- egates have no standing in conyen- tion beyond or above their instruc- tions.
 From 1860 to 1908 in national con- ventions there has not been anything certain save uncertainties.
 What states would have instructed for MT. Bryan when he was first named?
 After all our years of professions all our protestations against radical isms, shall we name a candidate more radical in isms new to our party than anyone we have ever named? Should not our aim be to name a candidate that all our voters can sup port; and in whom we, as well as the non partisan voter, have confidence in his ability and understanding in re- lation to the central question at is- sue?
 Of all the candidates MT. Underwood Is concededly the best equipped as to the matter the voters will be called on to decide next November. MT. Un- derwood is the only one that his com petitors concede could frame an ac- ceptable tariff bill without aid or data, 
 other than that he has in his massive brain.
 That MT. Bryan Is now. and has been, honest, sincere and patriotic-that he has ever had the good of. all the people at heart no one that knows him well seri- ously doughts. And we believe 1t equally true of Calhoun, Clay and Webster | equally so of Hancock or Parker-all were great men and talented; but their | parties knew that they were not strong | on doubtful states or if named by their party, were found wanting in strength in l the closely contested states. | In 1880 oyr party named General Han | cock for the presidency. Admittedly, he was a strong man. but he sidestepped | on the tariff questionable told the peo- | pie that the tariff was local issue. The truth is the tariff is a very personal is- sue, personal profits for the capitalists

Justice Henry J. Beam of the Oregon

Hitherto it has been the accepted
law that parties to divorce proceed

Palouse, Wash, Dec. 4.-One hun
dred creditors of the defuuct Pa
louise State bank met Saturday to
discuss the matter of closing up the
affairs of that institution. 1t was
decided to Immediately dispose of
all the remaining assets except a
$4,000 mortgage and a tract of land
on the Columbia river comprising
100 acres, which was turned over
to the bank by the former president,
H. NJ. Boone.
Up to date, dividends to the
amount of 40 per cent have been
paid, and Receiver Jewet states that
with the sale of the lands on the
Columbia river there should be funds
sufficient to pay an additional 90
per cent.
