REPUBLICANS TOO EAGER IN ALABAMA Named National Delegates
 Without Authority INSURGENTS AMUSED
Alabama State Conventions Indorse- ment of Taft Was Beyond Its Power = Progressiyes Want
 Control of Delegation
Rr WALTER HARPER

Washington, September 2.-(Special.)- The naming of delegates to the national convention by the republicans of Ala bama a few days ago is the subject of much political comment in Washington, | The naming of delegates and the indorse- l ment of President Taft in the same breath before the state convention has authority for such action Is looked upon with amusement by the progressive fac- tion of the party here.
 The naming of delegates before the na- tional executive committee has issued a call, promulgating rules for the state and party conventions all before a basis of upon here as move to get into the good graces of the President as early as pos sible. It is contended that the action can- not be regarded as official or in any way regular.
 The Alabama republicans had a right to hold a. convention for the election of a state chairman, and indeed this seemed had developed and to satisfy the Pres ident as to what wing or faction should be recognized in the distribution of po- litical favors. This convention also had a right to indorse it's choice for national committeeman, and then there is no law against the indorsement of the hand that distributes the pie." But to name delegates to the national convention is clearly beyond the power of any conven- tion at this time, it is claimed. 
 Meet This Winter The national committee will meet some time this winter about January or Febrn- ary, to select the place for holding inc national convention and will at this time issue an official call for the state con ventions. laying down rules and reg dla-
 tions for such conventions. The new fed
 era redistricting law makes it impossi-
 ble to adjust the state representation at
 this time or until after the states them selves have acted under the new law It is recalled that one district in Mich-
 igan before the last national republican
 convention held it's convention and named
 delegates in much the same manner as
 the republicans of Alabama acted
 irregular, coming as it did prior to the
 official call of the national committed
 Then 1t is pointed out that the Ala
 bama convention failed to naine enough
 delegates under any present known oasis
 of representation Why the convention
 named only six def';e atcs while it was at
 It is not understood by the republicans
 here.
 The progressive republicans have opened
 headquarters in Washington and reports
 from the Alabama convention were
 watched with interest. Walter Houser,
 who is in charge of the office and the
 campaign, smiled broadly when he read
 the procedure of the convention in The
 A Age-Herald today. He was unable to give
 any explanation of the action in naming
 delegates except that it was to further
 emphasize the indorsement that had just
 been made of MT. Taft and his admins tration
 The progressives will make a fight for
 the control of the Alabama delegates in the national convention.

by relatives of unfortunate workers

the supposedly agonizing pain caused
by such a death. Where great bulk

result is the production Of large guam

Women and Stocks.

Women Spectators have a habit OF
giving to brokers orders with a string
attached to them. A woman who
owned some bank stock asked a broker
to sell 1t at $50 If he thought she
could not get any more for it. The
market in this stock had been inactive
for months, ana $50 was the highest
price ever recorded for it. The next
day the broker had chance to sell
the stock at 250 1t so happened that
on the same day lively demand for
this bank stock developed, and before
the day was over it was selling at
300. The broker wrote to his woman
customer that he had sold her stock
for $3.50 share and would she send
her certificate to him for delivery to
the purchaser? She refused to deliver
the stock.
You ought to have known better
than to sell II for 250." she remon-
strated. II am going to sell it today
myself for 800"
1t was not until the broker appealed
to the courts that he succeeded in get
ting the stock from the wOman.-

Dainty Snails.

The writer who qualified the snail as
"foul and unclean" was guilty Of a
libel. Snails are most dainty feeders
and strict vegetarians, as many gar
deners know to their cost. Apparently
three centuries ago snails were more
popular in England than they are now.
The fastidious author Of "The Faerie
Queene" gives recipe for their prep
aration:
With our sharp weapons we shall thee
fray
And take the castill that thou lyest In;
We shal thee fay out OF thy foule skin,
And in dish. with onyons and peper,
We shall thee dresse with strong vyne-
gars.
