is compelling the wealthy tax dodg-
ers to bear their just burdens of tax
alton. The county assessors can al
ways find the property of the peo-
pie in moderate circumstances but
frequently overlook the cattel and
sheep on a thousand hills and the
property of the wealthy citizens
and corporations. In 1899 ten mil
lion dollars worth Of beef cattle were
shipped out OF the state but the as
SCISSORS only found three hundred
thousand dollars worth. This has
been going on for forty years. This

overlook so persistenly and when

SUMMER SCHOOL
AT UNIVERSITY OVER
Most Successful Session i'm
History Closes-Many
Teachers Attend

University, July 23-(Special. 1.-The
university summer school for teach
ers closed today after the most sue
cessful session in its history. Exanf-
nations in all departments were fin
ished this afternoon.
From every point of view the ses-
sion has been eventful. The enroll
ment, which reached total of 562,
exceeded last years, the greatest pre-
vious record, by so. In this years at
tendance there were III men and 3S5
women. Only three of Alabama's 81
counties failed to be represented in the
enrolment, while every one of the
states of the southeast. except South
Carolina, sent one or more students
Another gratifying feature about the
closing session is that only a little
more than one-third of the students
POI came here to be coached for the
state teachers examinations. The re-
mainder were here for self-improve-
ment or to take courses leading to
university degrees.
The officials of the summer school
are highly gratified at the success of
the session. In speaking of the work
DR.. Denny says:
Three things particularly impress
me in connection with the session of
the summer school. which has Just
ended:
Il. The serious and earnest spirit
that has characterized the very large
student body.
2 The improved quality of the stu
dent body in point of maturity and
preparation for serious work
3. The remarkable freedom from
serious sickness. There have been 600
people connected with the summer
school. Communities of this size usual
ly have need of two or three physi-
clans. There have been only one or
two cases of serious illness in the
great gathering here, and at least one
OF these two cases had definitely de-
veloped on the arrival of the student.
This is phenomenal record which we
can only explain by the fact that the
University of Alabama has an ample
supply of pure water, pronounced bv
DR.. Eugene A. Smith as in every way
as fine and pure as the famous Staf-
ford Spring water"

poses, the bureau of fisheries, by reason
of the limited number of fish culture sta
tions now in operation, has been unable
to supply the people of Alabama with the
requisite number of young fish of desir-
able species, adaptable to the waters of
this state. necessary to replenish our
waters with fish.
Now, therefore be 1t resolved by this
conference of farmers of Alabama. held
under the auspices of the Gadsden Cham
Der of Commerce. that Congress be and
is hereby memorialized to enact law at
the earliest possible and practicable mo-
ment, looking to the location of fish
culture, station In this state, to the end
that an ample number of young fish of
desirable species may be Matched within
the state and be distributed among our
citizens who desire to engage in the art
of fiFh culture as a medium of the reduc-
ton of the high cost of living and as n
means of producing fish for commercial
purposes.
Resolved further. That copy of this
resolution be forwarded to Senators Bank
head and Johnston and to each member
of the House of Representatives from
Alabama, ana that they be and are here
by urged to press the matter of the es-
tablishment of fish culture station in
