This is written before we know the
decision of the State executive COM
mittee, but we have no idea they
will do anything but declare the re-
suit of the primary according to the
votes polled, and, it seems to us
that was the only thing could be
done. We never expected the in
vestigation to amount to anything,
not that those in charge of 1t were
not sincere and competent, but the
task was too big and the time too
short for the whole matter to be
gone into. The only thing to do is
to take steps to prevent another such
primary as that of 1912.

BEES sTUNG MULES TO DEATH.
Two Animals in Lexington Overturn
Hives with Fatal Result.

Lexington, October 1.-Two mu-
les, belonging to Andrew Long, a
prosperous farmer, residing about 2
miles north of Gilbert, were stung so
badly by bees one day last week that
both died from the effects of the
stings. 1t seems that Mr.. Long had
loaded his wagon with cotton and
had left the mules standing. They
grazed around and ran upon the hi
yes, turning two of the gums over.
The bees Immediately swarmed and
completely covered the animals. One
of the mules died a short while
afterwards; the other the following
day. The loss falls heavily on Mr..
Long, who is a hard-working, indus
trious citizen.

ing the wrong question or making
the wrong comment. So it was, when
at a dinner party his neighbor, a
lady. said to him: Il am a thorough
believer, you know, Mr.. Smith, that

hair; black-haired man should
wear black clothes, brown-haired

The deaths growing out of the
strike in Augusta are to be greatly
deplored, but we do not see where
the employees of the company had
any right to strike. The deaths of
innocent people were indirectly caus-
ed by the union laborers, and they
are to be censured, if the facts are.
as stated, that they had contract
with the company which did not ex-
pire until December 31st. This be-
ing the case they have broken a con-
tract and the company is exactly
right in refusing to arbitrate.

The question over in Augusta
seems to be who shall control the
street railway company, the men who
own it or the conductors and motor
men. Granting that the employees
did have right to quit, what right
did they have to commit acts Of Vlo-
lence and attempt to keep other peo-
pie from working for the railway
company? The fact of the matter
is that union labor is being manlpu-
lated these days by the willy poll
tician and demagogue in the shape OF
the labor agitator and the sooner
they are eliminated the better it vii!
be for the laboring people. Now
they are being used to further the
selfish ends of designing men, and
the public will not stand for it al
ways. Sooner or later we look for
national laws to be enacted prevent
ing strikes and the attendants acts
of violence. To our mind the unions
forfeit all right to consideration
when they commit acts of violence
and attempt to prevent other people
from working when they strike
True, the unions say they do not en-
dorse violence, but we notice violence
usually follows a strike. 1t is bad
business all round, and labor anc
capital better get together and cu1
out the go-between and trouble
maker.

The State executive committee has
decided and we fell sure all good
citizens will accept the result. AS
an earnest opponent Of the present
governor, we accepted the result and
hope his next administration will be
an improvement on the past two
years. When he does right we shall
commend him, and we hope not to be
under the necessity of condemning
his official acts or public utterances.

 The growth of this league in Alabama is attracting widespread comment. and at a meeting of the Birmingham members during the past week at their headquar- ters in the Clark building the annual cleo ton of officers was held. The declaration of principles as adopted by the recent an- nual congress of the league, which was held in Chicago at which 27 states were represented, were read and indorsed by the local association. They are as fol- lows:
 l. We oppose the granting of a monop- oily of healing practice to any system or systems of healing.
 2. We oppose any attempt 10 take from us our inalienable right to employ in the hour of illness the practitioner or system of our choice.
 3. We oppose the establishment of state medicine as we would oppose the estab- lishment of state religion.
 4. While in favor of sanitation and cleanliness in the highest degree. we oppose the attempted use of these gen eral principles as a cloak for compul sory medical treatment.
 B. We oppose the infringement by threatened extension of federal bureau- cratic power of the right of state to regulate and control it's own health affairs
 s. We oppose discrimination in favor of any school of healing in the selection of federal, state or municipal officers charged with the administration of san- itary quarantine or other health fegu- lations.
 '. We oppose the use of public funds. public schools or other public institu- tions for the dissemination of litera- ture, the advertising of the theories, or the furtherance of the propaganda of any particular system of healIpg
 S. We propose to prosecute campaign of education and publicity not only to arrest any further encroachment upon our right to select the practitioner or system of our choice in the hour of illness. but also to regain the rights that have been taken from us and to establish forever the principle of medi- cal freedom.
