MlX-UP COMING
OVER SENATOR
FROM ALABAMA

/ Washington, D. c.. Aug. 9.--SharE
division of opinion exists among sen
ators over Governor O'Neals an
nouncement that he will call special
election to fill the vacancy caused by
| the sudden death here of Senator
Johnston of Alabama.
A contest is expected if a senator
presents himself from Alabama, elect.
ed at such a special election as Gov
ernor O'Neal proposes. The Ala
bama case probably will act as pre-
cedent for the Maryland election,
where the governor has issued call
for special election without the leg
islature having authorized him to do
so since the enactment of the seven
teenth amendment.
Attorney General McReynolds said
today he had not advised the Alabama
authorities that the governor was en-
powered to appoint a successor to
the late Senator Johnston.
Mr.. McReynolds said that in for.
warding a copy of the seventeenth
amendment to the attorney general OF
Alabama, at the latter's request, he
expressed the view that apparently
Governor ONeal had no power to
appoint successor but that a special
session of the legislature cfuld EN-.
power him to do so. and al he'd that
the governor could call speelal ses.
sion for that purpose.

TRUST GOODS
SENATOR KENYON INTRODUCES TARIFF
AMENDMENT TO PUT ALL PRODUCTS
OF M0NOPOLIES ON The FREE IIST.--
GIVES ALUMINIUM TRUST AS GlARING
EXAMPLE.

Washington, d. G., Aug. 9.--"lt is
more important to contTol or destroy
the trusts than to revise the tariff,
declared Senator Kenyon in the senate
today. "If our Democratic friends by
adopting an amendment in accordance
to their party platform would assist
in this, they would accomplish great
er good than by merely reducing the
tariff
Mr. Kenyon was speaking on his
amendment to free list articles manu-
factured by the aluminium trust at
once and automatically to free list all
products of concerns held by the
courts to be monopolies. eff the gov
eminent cannot control the trusts"
he continued, then We may as we'll
concede the trusts are powerful
enough to destroy this government. >
"The aluminium company" Senator
Kenyon declared, was engaged in
business treason against the gov
ernment from which it received it's
protection. The concern, he said cap
italized at $30,0O0,OO0 had invested
only $2,000,000 in twenty-four years
and made a profit of $2S,000,O00 on
its stock.

problems. the Justification and index
system of the Birmingham library is not
complicated and involved something that
it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to
fathom. There is no red tape" At the
of the entire Birmingham library system
and 1t is so planned that a book can be
found in several different ways and what
is more, found in a moment. BY this one
cafalog, which is open to the use of the
public book can be found by referring
to its author. If the author is unknown
and the title is. the first distinctive word
in the title will Immediately reveal the
book by means of the same catalog. If
neither the author nor the title is known,
the same catalog will produce the book
by looking for 1t under the general theme
or subject of the book.
On all the catalog cards. then. of all
books except novels, are placed numbers
which enable the librarian to tell in a
moment what particular phase of the
subject the books deal with, If any. In
the other corner of the card is marked
whether or not the book Is in the central
library and it not in which one of the
eight branches it can be located.
The catalog can be used by the novice
Anyone not familiar with it, however will
be assisted the first time by one of the
BILE for mere chic, to find any book he
desires in the whole library system. After
the book Is located in the catalog, the
card is then shown to the librarian and
the book itself is produced.

POLITICAL POT BEGINS
TO BOIL IN Chiffon

Clanton, November 24.-(Speeial) THE
political pot began to boil here today in
earnest. In the early morning before the
train bringing in the circuit judge and
other officers of the court had arrived
the candidates swarmed among the yeo-
manry arriving from the surrounding
country and no little oratory was dis
pensed at the courthouse.
Len F. Greer made very well received
speech, which was delivered in a good
vain on the issues of his candidacy for
the agricultural commisslonership. John
II. Wallace was heard concerning the
claims which he makes for the nominal
ton for governor, and p. G. Bowman ap-
peared in the interest of Capt. Reuben F..
Kolb.
Two of the speeches which were osten-
sibly in the interest of certain candidates
were in reality very bitter attacks on
Conner The gentlemen making them both
claimed that they had never been in the
employ of the railroads.
Judge Parsons charge to the grand
grand jury was considered a masterpiece
and appealed to the conscience as well
as to the judgment. incidentally he
touched upon the good roads movement
and his words succeeded in enlisting some
jury was considered masterpiece.

cases, and large number of Birming-

No reason for the accident was dis

"They were trying out new six-eyl-
inder machine" said he, land they were
between 80 and 100 feet from the ground
when they lost control. The machine was

with 1t. Ellington went as instructor.
The machine had a duan control which it

vinced us that the controls were in good
order.

Free Cigarette
Holders This Week
Local Tobacco Dealers Give Fine Gig
arctic Holders With Omar Cigarettes


In connection with the sale of Omar
Cigarettes in this city, local dealers
are giving free, for a few days, to
each purchaser of a package of Omar,
"a handsome cigarette holder. This
holder has the merit of being practical
as we'll as attractive because, unlike
the ordinary cigarette holder, it is
extremely light and almost indistructi-
Bile. The end in which the cigarette is
inserted is made of German silver,
while the stem and mouthpiece are
rubber. 1t is the type of cigarette hold
er which is now most popular both in
this country and abroad.
The gift of these cigarette holders
through local dealers Is made to in
sure an extensive trial of Omar Cigar
cites because of the belief on the part
of the manufacturers thate smokers
generally will like and continue using
this brand. 1t is said that the plan IS
fully justified by results in other cities.
Omar Cigarettes are described as a
new Turkish blend of very high quail
ity, with flavor and fragrance which
are wholly different and unusually
pleasing. The supply of cigarette hold
ers on hand for distribution is limited.
and the local dealers are advising pat
rons to act promptly in order to secure
one.

SYSTEM AT PUBLIC LIBRARY

The use of a public library is limited
only by the number of books it contains
and the ability of the library staff to
serve those who call. 1t is well known
that the Birmingham library system lacks
sufficient number of books for the size
of the city and number of its patrons
but the efficiency of the library staff
is a different story.
Under the able direction of Miss Lila
Chapman, head librarian, classification
and index system has been inaugurated
at the central library which is remark
able in its simplicity and its scope. The
prime requisite of library of course,
Is books. There are many requisites that
work together to make up a complete
and efficient library, but the most es-
sentlal is the books themselves. No mat
ter how nice or well equipped the build
ing might be; no matter how large the
patronage; no matter how able the Ii
brary staff, where there are no books
there is no library.
After the books themselves, however,
in Importance comes the library staff
What's the use in having great pile
of books if the patron is unable to go to
the library and in a few minutes lay his
ringer on any one particular book he
might want out of the thousand before
his eyes? This is the problem of the
librarian and her staff and Its solution
Is marvellous achievement
Contrary to the usual solution to sucn
