By C. M. STANLEY

Stewart brings to Washington wide and thorough information. both on polti- cal and industrial matters which will enable him to present all the news from the nations capital, with especial ref erence to It's bearing on Alabama affairs.

He IS re- garded as an Iron ore expert and was formerly incnafye v the ore mines of the Southern Steel company He has made various expert examinations of ore prop critics and some time ago made a trip to Mexico to examine and make a report on some mining properties in that country. Tn order to take up the Washington work Mir Stewart resigned the position which he held as auditor of the Alabama City. Gadsden and Attalla Rairoad company.

The World on Ohio

The New York World today says edi- torially: ''The Ohio primaries have dealt stunning blew to Mr. Taft's campaign for renomination. On the democratic side they nave eliminated Governor Harmon as a candidate for President. On the demo- cratic side the results are even more as- tonishing than on the republican side. Governor Harmon needed a more decisive vindication than MT. Taft in view of the aggressive campaign that MT. Bryan had made against him. He failed to gain this vindication. Governor Harmon's one chance at Baltimore. in view of Mir Bryan's bitter opposition to his nomination was to demonstrate that he had the com plete confidence of the Ohio democrats and could sweep his state. This chance is now blighted. Ohio repudiates Ohio.

Dies Assails Roosevelt

Washington. May 22.-In one of the most remarkable speeches of the present session of Congress, Representative Dies of Tex as democrat, today assailed former Pres ident Roosevelt in bitter terms and re- ferred in almost as bitter fashion 10 the leaders of his own party. including Speaker Clark and Governor Wilson, to whom he alluded as 'parson' Wilson, MT. Dies foresaw the crumbling of tho republic, the eventual rule of the mob and assigned as the causes the growth oI demagoguery and influx of ignorant in- migrants from southern Europe.
 Tracing the history of Rome, Greece, Italy, France and coming down to the present day in Mexico, the Texan ex- pressed his fervent hope that history would not repeat itself under Teddy |" He prophesied that Colonel Roosevelt be- cause of his victory in Ohio yesterday, would sweep the country" in the coming presidential campaign.
 You are a pessimist,' interrupted a voice on the republican side.
 No, 1 am not a pessmist" shouted MT Dles 'I look for the worst Out of the jungle comes the lion tanner, his hands reeking with the blood of wild beasts. ID goes the cry, We want Teddy: wo want Teddy Not even LaFolette, not even Cummins is advanced enough They do not know the meaning of progressiv- ism"
 MT. Dies attributed to Ignorance a. home and cowardice here" his conviction that the republic was going ahead at tho present time more and more slowly by reason only of it's acquired momentum He attacked Speaker Clark and Majority Leader Underwood for their alleged fail- ure to sustain the old democratic princl- ples In like vein and for the same req son. he assailed Minority Leader Mann and Representative Dalzell of Pennsyl- yania, for what he charged was desertion from their political faith.
 Berger is the biggest man in this bunch" said he. referring to the lone socialist member who halls from Wis consin. "He is heading toward socialism, while you are backing away and into it.

Progressives Under Fire

Washington. May 2.-An attack on "presnt progressive tendencies" was de- livered in the Senate today by Senator Gallinger during debate on the bill passed by the House extending the eight hour labor law on government contracts. Sena- tor Gallinger cited this measure as spec imen of ''pernicious Legislation"
 '1 hope we shall vote promptly on every measure coming before the Senate.' he continued, because the longer we stay here the more harm we shall do to the country. We are to be asked to tear up the established principles of the country and do away with the injunction. A member of the House has advanced the idea that six hours is long enough for under the snap of the whip we will be forced to submit even to that"
 Senators Borah of Idaho and Maritime of New Jersey defended the measure the latter citing the operation of the eight hour law in New Jersey.
 New Jersey is the headquarters of anarchy in the United States" comment ed Senator Gallinger.
 Yes" admitted Mir. Maritime. "as a result of the infamous tariff system which has made handful of millionaire in Passaic and Paterson and produced sanalor and woe among their employees" Several attempts to amend the bill failed
