ITALIAN MINERS ARE
 HURT AT MARGARET
Trouble Understood to Have Been Caused by Loading
 Slate in the Cars

Following a discussion which arose be- tween the officials of the Alabama Coal and Iron company at the Margaret mines last week and the Italian miners em- ployed there, a number of the miners laid down their tools Monday morning and re- fused to work.
 It is understood that the trouble arose because the Italian miners thought the fine imposed for placing slate in the coal cars was too heavy.
 For three days following the walkout the Italians waited in their houses at the mining camp for their pay, which Su- perintendent Deloney or the Margaret mine, declined to give them until the company's regular pay day. Wednesday they made another and more insistent demand Deloney sent to the sheriff of St. Clair county for six deputies to han dle the Italians, and early Thursday aft ernoon fight between a number of Ital- fans and six deputy sheriffs took place. One Italian, Joe Calamusa, was seriously injured and is confined in pr. Charles Chassis Italian hospital, at Seventh ave- nue and Twenty-sixth street, at the point of death. Another, Gaspare Gengo, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Self of St. Clair county and taken to the Ashville jail. charged with carrying concealed weapons.
 According to statements that have ar rived here concerning the trouble when the deputies arrived on the scene the Italians were ordered from the company houses and searched for weapons. After that they were ordered away from Mar garet. All of these Italians have returned to Birmingham with the exception of sey- eral who had families and house furnish- ings in Margaret. Last night Joe Bedino, an Italian deputy sheriff, was sent to the mine to get these house effects out and bring them into this city, and to see that the families were cared for.
 Dr. Charles Gnasi, member of an Italian protective society, yesterday laid the matter before United States Marshal Pope Long, asking that aid be sent to the miners at Margaret. The matter was deferred until today, as MT Long stated that he would investigate the case. Speak ing in behalf of the striking Italians, pr. Gnasi said last night that the matter will be brought before the federal court at it's next session as peonage case.

MISSISSIPPI MINUS ELECTORAL TICKET Queer State of Affairs Sends Officials Hurrying to
 Jackson

Jackson, Miss, September 13.--(Spe- cial.) Ut developed here today, very much to the surprise of those of all political faiths. that there is no such thing as an electoral ticket of any character in the state of Mississippi, and Chairman McBeath of Meridian, and Secretary Norwood of Magnolia have been summoned to come to Jack son post haste.
 It so happens that for ways that are dark and tricks that are vain. the Mississippi primary election laws have the heather Chinese beaten to fraz- gle, but these laws, intricate as they ar can be unraveled and made plain even unto the layman. Stripped of all ambiguity these laws are found to di- rect that all candidates. from justices of the peace to presidential electors, must be chosen by primary election before they are placed on the ticket, or they must be gotten on the ticket by petitions bearing the name of 50 electors.
 Now, this has not been done by the democrats, republicans. socialists or bull moose candidates for presidential electors, hence there are no legally selected tickets. These four parties, one after the other came down to Jackson and held a so-called state conven- ton at which time candidates for electors were chosen.
 The upshot of the discovery of this illegal process is going to be that the democrats are the only party that will have an electoral ticket in the field in November It is an easy matter for the democrats to get 30 signatures to a petition in every county in the state. but it would be an uphill business. If not an impossibility. for republicans, socialists or progressives to get up such petitions.
 This important matter was brought to the attention of Secretary of State Power today in a letter from Chairman McBeath in which he said:
 "The national committee has written me that every state has different mode of election machinery, and they have written me asking what is nec- essary in this state. l am not sure after reading the statute. If the cleo tors are named by primary, then the law is plain, but since they were nom- mated by convention, I do not know just what should be done in the prem ises"
 The matter was submitted to the at torney generals office. and, after care ful consideration, it was decided that there are but two ways to put out a ticket for presidential electors: By pri- mary four months before the general election, or by petitions with 50 names in each and every county.
 Chairman McBeath and Secretary Norwood will be here tomorrow when the necessary action will be taken to make the democratic ticket legal.
