CRAIG GETS NEW
 SELMA ROUTES
Liquor Laws for Dallas
 County

Selma, March 19-(Special. )-Con- gressman William B. Craig has rec ceived notice from Fourth Assistant Postmaster General P. V. DeGraw to the effect that two new rural routes will soon be established in Dallas county. Congressman Craig has been working for some months past to have the two new rural routes as well as several others established in different parts of the country. MT. Craig believes that all of the routes which he has asked for will be established during the com- ing summer.
 Representative A. D. Pitts of Dallas says that the several local liquor bills which have been introduced in the low CT house of the legislature will not pass that body when they come up. In. speaking of these measures he said:
 T have publicly stated several times before that I would oppose any and all of the local whisky bills that have been introduced and favorably reported in the house. There will be an organ |ixed fight against all of them and they cannot be passed by the house." MT. Pitts stated that he has with him | in this attitude many of the lead ling supporters of the Parks bill and that there is a sufficient number of them to defeat any of the local meas ures.

the employment by any candidate or other person of helpers or canvassers for any reward, money or other thing of value. The bill also prohibits the use of hacks, automobiles or other ve- hicles at the polls for the purpose of bringing out voters; to prohibit other evil practices and to provide fitting punish ment for violations.
 This bill is regarded as one of the most important general bills on the calendar. It is aimed at the correction of an evil which is believed to be more or less gen. eral in the state. The prevention of graft at elections, or the use of unfair infiu- ences in securing votes has long been a question which has caused considerable concern to certain clements in the state,
 and friends of the Rice bill claim that this important measure will pass the house.
 Justice Medical Bill
 | Another bill which is likely to cause ] considerable debate when 1t comes up for passage is the Justice medical bill, which | Is aimed at the prevention of quack med ical advertisements, and which prescribes | the qualifications of physicians. This bill has been a special order before the house for several days. but whenever it has been called up the measure has been l further postponed. The bill has the back | ing of the state board of health, and a large number of prominent physicians throughout the state. But 1t also has much opposition. and there is no doubt
 but that a lively fight will ensue when
 the bill is finally called up for passage Appropriation Bills
 l Tn addition to these measures there are | many appropriation bills which will come 1 up for passage this week. Of these the | most important are the bills approprfat-
 ing s2oo, 900 each to the university at Tus- caloosa, the Polytechnic institute at Au- 1 burn, and the Girls school at Mcntevsllo These bills are all important. and it iz not believed that there. will be much op- position to the measures In addition tc

WAR IS R|D|CULED BY MIR. CARNEGIE Speaks of the Absurdities of
 Jap Invasion NO DESIRE FOR WAR Man Who Fears War With Japan Might As We'll Wear Light
 ming Rods Down His
 Back"

New York, March 9.-(Specal.) )-"The man who fears war with Japan might as well wear lightning rods down his back to save himself from stroke"
 This was the statement made by An drew Carnegie in an interview today. in which he discussed the alarmist reports Of Japanese designs against the United States
 First said MT. Carnegie, 'it would be impossible for Japan to transfer an army to our shores so great as to be Formidable. Before her ships could pos sibly have reached here we would have nlled our harbors with deadly explosives and defy them to land. That failing, if some should land, we would welcome them with bloody hands to hospitab ble graves Let me make one remark about Japan. Of all the apparitions that dis turo men like Hobson, the idea of war with Japan is most absurd. It should be remembered that Japan was not alto gether victorious with Russia, and when she asked for an indemnity of s60O,0OO, ,OOt Russia simply smiled and did not give a cent. But Japan has no desire to fight with America, her best friend. We were the frst to welcome Japan into the brotherhood of nations and will be last to lorsake her. She is our stanch friend, ~A-N eAiS iAieii HilO lcdIS war Wltn Japan might as well wear lightning rods down his back to save himself from a stroke. Japan has no desire for war with any na ton. She is intent upon developing her resources, paying off her debt and reduc- Ing her onrous burden of taxation. The recent action of President Taft in amend ing our treaty with Japan, wherein it gave onense to that nation. is another tribute 10 his ability as a statesman.
 If Janan fo :. States, 1t is claimed that her first move would be to annex the Philippines.
 If Japan should take the Philinnines for which we paid s2O,OOO.Oo0, there would be no cause for tears. The acquisition of that country was one of the greatest mis- takes ever made by our government as the present shows and the future will show still more clearly. The reason al- legged for our taking of the Philippines was that Germany would like them if we oldn l. Any man who knows anything at all apout the situation in the east now or then is aware that Great Britain. with her base of supplies at Hong Kong. So miles from Manila, would as soon have allowed Germany to make her naval base tnere as She would allow her to make one at Kingston, Ireland, opposite Liverpool.
 How about Guam and the Hawaiian islands, which Japan would surely try to take as bases of supplies?
 That the Japanese would ever take possession of either of these place is aoout as likely as that the skies will fall ana we shall then catch skylarks. Again, let me say I am convinced, having been in Japan and having seen it's people with my own eyes, that we have no better friends in the world than they, and the recent deference to their sensbilities will touch that sensitive people greatly"

ble that two whole days may be consumed in the passage of measures on the calen- car calling for appropriations out of the state terasury for educational purposes.
 Newspaper Pass Bill
 Going back to the talk of an extra ses- sion, should one be called. 1t is more than possible that newspaper pass bill will again be called. A new measure will be introduced, but whether or not 1t will be saddled with the provision to give franks to sheriffs and their deputies and chiefs of police cannot be ascertained. No one has been found who will stand sponsor for the fact that bill to this effect will be introduced, but chances are that 1t will.
 Country editors throughout the state feel that a legitimate barter Is being de- nied them, in that they are denied at the present time the privilege of swapping space for passes. They contend that the exchange is fair one, and that 1t should be granted.
 Other measures which were lost at this session of the legislature will probably again bob up should an extra session be called, but the possibility at the present time is little too remote for speculation.
