REARRANCEMENT
 IN THE OFFICES State Officials Will Get Bearings When Legisla-
 ture Ends Work

Montgomery. April 12.-(Special.)-- With the 1911 session of the legisla- 1ure almost at an end, officials at the capitol are just preparing to catch their breaths for the four years race which will be begun in earnest next Monday. Since the induction of Gov Emmet ONeal in office, January 1G, the state solons have been on steady and consistent grind, the result being that the capitol officials have been more or less distraught.
 Immediately upon the adjournment of the legislative body the offices at the capitol will be re-arranged and in this encouragement will be found suf- ficient excitement to keep the hill eossiping for another 10 days before the long stretch is fairly entered. While the appropriation of S100,0O0 for the purpose of adding a new wing to the capitol has passed both of the houses and will without doubt be signed by the states chief executive, it cannot furnish relief to the present congested state of affairs in less than IS months or at least one year from now In the interim offices will have 10 be rented downtown for a mum Der of the depa rtments which have been created at this session, as well as for several or the departments WHlCIl HdNe been enlarged.
 Concensus of opinion seems to have it that the offices connected with the state health department will be moved to downtown district. as well as the offices of the state tax commisson. In the event of the removal of the latter department the old office of the commission will be added to the department of agriculture h the event of the removal of the health department, including the State Pasteur institute, the offices on that floor will revert to the newly created court Of ap- peals.
 Provision must be made for an assem- bly room of the state highway commis- sion, an office for the superintendent of banks examiner of public accounts and agricultural board in addition to tho ap- pellate court. Provision must also be made for the immigration commissioner and for other departments at the capitol which are crowding at the presentD time into other offices. The department of archives and history is already filled to overflowing, which will necessitate larger quarters before the new wing is erected.

IMPORTANCE OF THE
 TOPOGRAPHIC MAP
Long List of Minerals in Alabama UndevelOped-Maps Will Be
 Great Aid

Montgomery, April Special 1.-The passage of Senator Aliens bill providing an appropriation of s10,O0O annually for the purpose of allowing the state geolog- teal department to cooperate with the United States geological survey in mak- ing a topographic survey and many of the several counties of the state Is be- lieved to have been one of the most im- portant pieces of legislation that has been enacted at the present session of the leg islature.
 It is regarded as practically certain that the new law will add many millions of wealth to the state of Alabama, as the state is believed to possess much mneral wealth that has never yet been developed
 The passage of the bill assures an al- lotment of $20OO0 of federal funds for the purpose of aiding the state geological department in making topographic sur vey. The federal allotment is based upon the percentage of area already surveyed, a maximum of $20,o00 being apportioned to state of which less than 35 per cent has been surveyed. At the present time 19 states of the union are cooperating with the federal government in making these topographic surveys.
 Senator Allen, the author. of the bill which has just passed prepared a list os the minerals that had been undeveloped in Alabama, to be used as evidence of the vast importance which such a sur. vey would be to the state at large Ac- cording 10 his estimate, in which he was aided by pr. Eugene A. Smith of the University of Alabama, it was shown that there are more than 50 important minerals that have not yet been devel- oped in this state
 This list of undeveloped minerals is as follows: Alum asbestos, asphaltum. barite, bauxite, black bank and clay iron stone, brown iron ore, granites, cement, China claYs, clay iron stone, kaoine, fire clays, copper, Epson salts, cOrundum, gold graphite, lead ore, iitographic stone. malta, manganese. marble, mica, mill stone. mineral paints, natural gas and oil, nitre. ocres, phosphates, trpoli portland cement, pottery and stoneways clays, pyrite slate and polishing powder
 The principal minerals that have been developed in the state are iron, coal and some little limestone.
 Topogra phic maps are believed to be of inestimabe value to states. They are useful for planning irrigation projects, for laying out highways and in classify ing lands, plotting the nature of the soil and in classifying the distribution of mineral lands.
 The importance of the map was so well known to Governor O'Neal that he sent message to the house of representatives asking that the bill be passed. The meas ure had previously passed the senate by a unanimous vote, and it's passage through the house met with little opposi | lon.

IMPEACHMENT OF
 BULLOCK SHERIFF

Montgomery, April 12.-(SpeciaL)- When the supreme court assemblies for its session tomorrow the state will ap- pear before that tribunal in the per- son of Attorney General R. c. Brickell to institute impeachment proceedings against Sheriff F. w. Jinwright, oe Bullock county. The proceedings are the outcome of allegations which will be preferred against the sheriff by Governor O'Neal that the Bullock off, cial was negligent in the performance of his duties in that the negro Aber- deen Johnson was lynched in Union Springs Sunday week without having proper state protection.
 The governor has written at length Ito General Brickell In which he has set forth the report of special agents of the state who have made an inves- tigation of the circumstances attend- ing the mob violence.

DEMOCRATIC HOUSE READY
 WITH RECIPROCITY BILL
CONTINUED FROM PAGE n


 leaves boards, blanks, deals and other lumber of lignum, vitae, lancewood, ebony, boo, granadilla, mahogany, rose wood, satinwood and other cabinet woods exactly where they are in the Payne Aldrich tariff bill, dutiable at 15 per cent ad valorem. When asked about this today Chairman Underwood and other democratic members of the ways and means committee explained that these woods, and they are especi- ally named, are not necessities" but
 in the category of "luXuries" and for that reason the duty on them was not disturbed.
 Under section 713 of the Payne Ald- rich law these cabinet woods, box, cedar ebony, granadilla, lancewood, lignum, vitae, mahogany, rose and satinwood and all other cabinet woods are admitted free of duty when brought into the country in the log, rough or hewn only. The value of these woods admitted free during the fiscal year, 1910, was $4,9S4.34SS6 as compared with $3,S99,325.S9 admitted free under the Dingley law in 1909. But when these same specially named cabinet woods are admitted in the form of sawed boards, blanks, deals or other forms of sawed wood, these cabinet woods paid a duty of } per cent under the Dingley law, which was not changed by the Payne Aldrich law, and this duty was pro- hibitive. In 1910, under the Payne law only 395,0O0 feet of these cabinet woods were admitted in the fiscal year, 1910. It was worth only $27,55257 and the duty collected amounted to only $4,132.57. The object of this 1 5 per cent duty is to force these hardwoods to be admitted in the rough, hewn or log form, to be sawed into blanks, and deals or other forms in American mills.
 With this the proposed free list bill does not interfere. over $1S,000,000 worth of lumber in the form Of boards, blanks and deals, rough or dressed, was admitted during 1910. and under the payne law the duty paid oh this lumber amounted to S1,434,000. All of this lumber, rough and dressed, is now proposed to be transferred to the free list.
 Ottawa Ont, April 12.-"The position of reciprocity in the Canadian parliament has been greatly improved by the decis- ion of Congress to deal with it before taking up other questions on the exten- sive programme of the democratic lead ers,' said member of the government today "The opposition which has been aggressive against reciprocity from the first has been basing it's hopes largely cn the expectation that at Washington the democrats would delay ratification of the agreement until they had carried through the remainder Of their legisls- tive programme or would combine the consideration of the agreement with the woolen schedules or with something else.
 'I expect to see parliament ratify the agreement soon after the Easter recess, which ends on the 19th.'
 Parliament adjourned today fol. weeks recess, covering the Easter holi- daYs

SELMA BATTERY
 MUSTERED OUT

Selma. April 12.-(Special )-Major Washburn of the Alabama coast artillery tonight at o'clock mustered out Of ser vice the local battery. The officers of the battery were o. c. Wolfe, captain; Charles Jones, first lieutenant, and Will liam Dozier, second lieutenant.
 The battery was one of the oldest mili- tary organizations in the state and peo- pie of Selma and central Alabama regret that it has been mustered out of service.
 It is believed that within the next week or two an effort will be made among the military young men of the city to organize another battery in Selma, for it is thought such company is necessary in this c;ty on account of the fact that the negro pop ulation outnumbers the white by nearly 10 to 1.
