Underwood to Organize

Dey elopments are destined to follow
thick and fast in Alabama. After the I'm
Gerwood reception Friday, the leader will
look towards the organization of his
state campaign committee. Headquar-
ters will be opened in Birmingham and
as heretofore stated, Forney Johnston
will in all probability. be chosen campaign
manager. The committee will be repre-
sentative of every county in the state,
and of all factions In the politics of the
state. Work in every county will be un-
dertaken, and at the proper time, it is
safe to predict that speakers will volun-
teer to carry the message in person to
all the voters of the state
OF the ultimate outcome, no doubt is
expressed. 1t is the purpose of the friends
of Mr.. Underwood to make his victory
the most sweeping ever accorded cam
didate for office in Alabama. That he
will lose very few counties is regarded
as certain. That he will carry every
county, is regarded as possible.

The Gubernatorial Race

Mr.. Underwood, on his present visit to
Alabama, will make two or more
speeches He will have something of i'm
portance to say in Birmingham Friday.
He will deliver an address in Mobile next
week, and it is understood that he will
| visit Florence where some time ago. he
promised to visit. Thereafter. he will
come to Alabama as often as possible
without neglecting his duties In Con-
gress.
The gubernatorial campaign, on account
of the prestige which the race for the
Senate has assumed, is quiescent. The
candidates, however, are conducting a
''still' hunt. The fire is smouldering, but
will flare. up again In the near future,
In this race, the best interests of the
people are at stake and it will be i'm
possible for any struggle to overshadow
completely that in which governor will
be elected.

Henderson to Strike


1t is probable that Charles Henderson 3
pext move will draw attention back to
the governors" UP to the present time,
he alone of the candidates has not made
an effort to occupy the limelight to the
exclusion of his opponents. He has held
that it was too early to begin a furious
struggle an entire year before the day of
balloting. Now, however. he is preparing
to exert himself and put his forces into
operation
November Is he will open north Ala
hama headquarters in Birmingham, and
will begin an aggressive campaign. A
list of speakers will be put into the field
and the real battle to endure to the end
will be on.
1t is the general conclusion that in the
long run, Henderson will stand out as the
real opponent of Mr.. Conner and Mr. Seed

BRAIN Of JAPANESE
PRINCE WEIGHED
1,G00GRANMES
At Remarkable Ceremony Body
of Famous Oriental StateS-'
man Is DiSSected in AC-
cOrdance With His Wishes,


Toxic, Nov 1G--The brain OF the
late Prince Katsura, one OF Japan's
greatest statesmen, who died October
10, weighed slightly more than 1000
grammes Prince Katsura was presl-
dent of the Japanese society devoted
to the study Of cancer, from which
disease he died, ANA In accordance
with his own instructions the body
was offered TO science and dissected.
His brain weight is said TO be near
~ the same as that of Kant, the
philosopher, and heavier than that of
Napoleon III, and Gambett. II was
little lighter than that OF Bismarck
and about three hundred grammes
heavier than the brain Of an average
physician.
The post-mOrtem examination was
conducted under historic Japanese
ceremony when all preparations had
been completed, Or. Nagayo, cele-
brated surgeon, surrounded by a num-
Der Of physicians addressed the
spirit OF the departed prince, saying
that In accordance with the dead
mans own wishes he was about to
dissect certain parts OF the body for
the benefit of science. at the opera
tion the surgeon again addressed
the spirit Of the deceased. reporting
the completion Of the task and ex-
pressing gratitude for the benefit
which science would derive.
Princess Katsura then viewed the
body, uttered a brief prayer to her
husbands spirit and murmured that
It was at his wish that she had re-
quested his dissection in the interest
Of science.
The examination proved the prince
was suffering from cancer, which
originated in the stomach and spread
to the liver. The fact that Prince
Katsura had desired dissection was
made public by the princess, who in
sisted that the examination should be
made. Her fortitude has created a
profound impression throughout the
empire.
President Wilson took occasion 10.
manifest the sympathy Of America to
the family Of Prince Katsura and 60
the people Of Japan by sending a
beautiful wreath through George W.
Guthrie, the American Ambassador.
The wreath was conspicuously placed
beside that offered by Empress DOW

kN0TTY QUESTIONS
To COME BEFORE
FEDERATION
This Week in Seattle Is Likely
to Witness Number of Lively
Controversies Between La
Dor Delegates,


Seattle, Wash, Nov l6-The Amer
lean Federation of Labor will begin
its second convention week tomorrow
with the prospect Of having all COM
mittee reports ready.
Jurisdictional trade controversies
threaten to occupy many hours of the
conventions time.
The most troublesome question in
sight is the division in the ranks of
the electrical workers, there being
regular and insurgent brotherhoods
with nearly equal membership. The
Reid faction, which is strong on the
Pacific coast, has made efforts for
reunion, but the leaders of the Nc
Nulty or regular faction are not in
clined to make concessions.
The controversy between the press
men and the executive council grow
ing out Of the Chicago pressmens
strike, is likely to lead to q heated
fight in the convention. The Inter-
national Pressmen's union insists on
organizing the newsboys and carriers
in a union subordinate TO the press
men. The International Topographic
cal union maintains that the news
boys and carriers are merchants, not
skilled artisans, and should not be
organized in unions. The executive
council Of the federation sides with
the typographical union and against
the pressmen.
With regard to strikes the conyen-
tion already had adopted a resolution
instructing the legislative council TO
seek a federal investigation Of the
Colorado coal strike and the strike on
the Hartman system. Shopmen have
obtained the aid Of the federation in
an effort to have the two year old
strike in the shops mediated along
with the Texas railroad strike begun
las. week, Resolutions on the Michi-
gan copper strike are pending.
Eo far no formidable opposition to
the reelection Of President Gompers
has appeared.
