EIGHT GOVERNORS OF ALABAMA
1874-19O1

1874--19O1

White, scalawag, chairman of the state
republican committee, called the members
together at Montgomery to consider the
party policy. The resolution OF the COM
mittee was to place no candidates for the
convention, but to vote mo convention"
The scalawag leaders refused to accept
the decision of the committee. Among
them Judge Rice took the field against the
convention, while Judge MINIS favored
it, In the black belt there were repub-
lican candidates.
The silent motive of the whites was to
keep alive the movement of 1874. The
President, General Grant, was yet against
them; the Congress at Washington was
yet their relentless and revengeful foe.
Having received not the justice due to
them by the terms of surrender at APP
pomattox in last resort they would in
woke the same desperate energy within
themselves by which they had won their
recent great victory at the polls If fail
ure now should succeed, success then, the,
trial of strength was the privilege of
men resolved upon their course. The
trial of strength in a people resolved to
be free is the province of freedom. If
the attempt now to throw off the legisla-
ton of Congress known as the constitu-
tion of 1868 must fail, direct military gov
ernment was not to be disdaned as the
result
The last year of Governor Lewis ad-
ministration had we'll night brought civil
government to an end. The total income
of the state from all sources was $1,170-
600. The living expense of the state gov
ernment was s15O,0OO in excess of its in
come. Wall street ignored its securities.
The item of interest alone on the state
debt exceeded it's total income, on a high
tax rate of 70 cents on the S100.
The machinery of government was most
enfeebled. The tax returns from the coun-
ties were in many instances absurd.
From the county of Montgomery only 429
horses were returned; Conecuh returned
only four farm mules; Cleburne 81 head
of horned cattle In Autauga the total
value of firearms, as returned on the
tax list was S24. In 13 counties not a
single musical instrument was taxed: In
46 counties not a dollar tax was returned
on Incorporated companies. In SO coun-
ties none admitted an income liable to
taxation.

Opposition in Senate

OF course, if the President makes an
appointment "over the heads" of the SEN
ators of a certain state, he runs the risk
of opposition to the confirmation of the
appointee This little detail, however.
does not seem to cause him much
worry. He has made one or two
such appointments and will in all proba-
bility make more, certainly he will do so
if the recommendations of the senators do
not meet with his approval, IT remains
to be seen how they are going TO turn out
as to being confirmed.
There are eight federal jobs in Ala
baua-as it is generally understood that
Mississippi will get the collector of in
ternaI revenue and it is little butt hard
to see how these eght Jobs are to be
eouitably distributed between ten con-
gressmen and two senators. so. to save
them any embarrassment, the President
may decide to just fill them himself

Senses Of Plants.

The sense most developed in plants
is that Of sight, which enables them
to see light but not to distinguish OBJ

as the earthworm, oyster and coral,
ETC., which possess 70 localized visual

ray OF sunshine. Similarly, it is easy

plants. Cultivate a plant in a room
with a window only on one side ana
it's stalks in growing will incline TO-
ward the source Of light. Physlolo-
cisls explain this hy suggesting that
the side to the dark grows more
quickly thar that eXnosed to the llsht'
There remains, however, the fact that
the plant has reacted to the light OF
whose effect it was conscious.
4 sense common to many plants IS
that Of touch. OF this the most Illus

SAVING THE ITALIAN BABIES
Maternity Insurance In That Coun-
try Has Greatly Reduced Infant
Mortality.

italy Joined in 1902 the few Euro
pean states which have established
laws for the better protection OF wo-
men working in industrial occupations
after confinement. This law prohib-
tied women from working for q month
after confinement, but contained no
provisions about the collecting OF
funds from which the expenses could
be betrayed. For this reason regn-

All our WEAKNESS of suffering Is
without avail to leave even a little
memory among those for whom the
work is done. All that is wrought in
despair, all that is loveless and me-
cbanical, falls to the ground. We live
for even so much as brief life only
IN that which carries the breath OF
our being. the love Of our heart. 1t is
no+ IN ceaseless routine and grinding
that we live, nor in what is small and
anxious. Machines will continue the
tale of that forever. No cog will ever
be missed in that endless chain. But
we shall not wholly die in the song
we carry in our heart, the love with
which we love the being OF another
the smile we give another wayfarer at
dusty noonday.-Collier's Weekly.
