North Carolina Leads.

The Charlotte Observer says: AS a
matter of current interest The Obser-
yer prints the North Carolina law gov
erning the election of United States
Senators and the filling of vacancies
BY the governor. If Alabama had a.
law similar to this the present Dem
ocratic senatorial embarrassment
would not have occurred. State Sen
ator Watts, nov Collector of Internal
Revenue, was the author of the bill.
1t will be remembered that along to-
ward the close of the Legislature Sena-
Tor Watts was laid up with a bad case
Of measles. One day shortly before
adjournment was in order, Watts got
out of bed, went to the Capitol, intra-
duced his bill and had it passed under
suspension of the rules. This act was
passed before the 18th amendment to
the Federal Constitution was ratified
~ a sufficient number of States and
was passed in anticipation of that
event. Perhaps North Carolina is the
only State that has provided for the
election of United States Senators and
for filling vacancies-if other States
have so provided they are very few in
number.

BRYANS PEACE DOVE
IS REALLY WAR EAGLE
Discovery Made by British AmbaSsa-
dor Who is Having Great Fun at
COmmOner's Expense.

According to information from
Washington the seal adopted by Secre-
tary of State Bryan to be used on the
peace treaties which he has been grind
ing out recently, has on it the emblem
of a wal eagle of the time of Alexan-
Ger the Great instead of the "rove of
peace" The Washington dispatch
says:
although now masquerading as
Secretary Bryan's '"dove of peace"
seal, which is being attached to peace
treaties with other nations. it develop
ed today that the design, copied from
an ancient corn, really represents the
war eagle and mot a cooling dove. In
addition, the design includes the figure
of the war god, Genus, who is seated
on a throne with sceptre, or "big
stick" in his powerful clasp. Secre-
tary Bryan had adopted the seal as
emblem of his desire for world amity.
"The revelation was made in a let
ter to the secretary from Sir Cecil Ar
thur Spring-Rice, British ambassador
to this country, who made inquiries of
the British museum. There it was
found that the coin, which Secretary
Bryan picked up in Palestine while on
a trip around the world, was of the
time of Alexander the Great.
In addition to the official seal of
state. it has been customary for Sec
~retaries of state singing treaties to
use a personal seal. When Secretary
Bryan learned of this custom, he had
a seal made from his COIN"
