To the Editor of The Age Herald
 would like some information with re- gard to the new tick law" First, have no doubt of its being good thing in rural districts or where cattle run at large in the woods and where the vats are prop erly constructed and operated. although seriously doubt even then that results justify the trouble and expense, but from observation and experience I must say that to impose such law in Birmingham is a wholly unnecessary hardship, as I have never seen a COW with ticks and l doubt if there is one among the herds grazing in the waste places of the city.
 reward of a dollar apiece for ticks would not net man enough to buy meal. Such being the case, why should we be annoyed and taxed for absolutely nothing?
 Again. a number of people have had their cows seriously injured, and some have died from the effects of dipping, the result of carelessness or improper con- struction of the vats. will not pretend to say which, My own COW suffered se- were decorations, and for number, of days the milk was unfit for use. having quite an amount of blood in 1t.

 There is a storm brewing among our people and unless there is some change there is going to be trouble. hear num- bers of men declare they are going to re- bel unless some safeguard is thrown around the dipping process that will in sure them against loss.

HOLD REPUBLICANS
 ID THEIR PLEDGE
Senate Democrats Will Urge Co-Operation on Early Ad-
 journment of Congress

Senate democrats have resolved on an adjournment of Congress by August 20, if possible, and work of speeding up the urgent legislative programme out lined by the party caucus last night will begin in earnest tomorrow.
 When debate on the naval appropriation bill is resumed, democratic leaders will seek to hold republicans to their pledge of co-opera ton and will urge their col leagues to limit debate. The big building programme probably will be disposed of in two or three days
 Following the naval bill will come the army appropriation measure carrying ap- proximately $32O,0oO,000. Leaders now estl- mate that both of these national defense bills can be sent to conference by the end of the week. The Senate then will be ready to take up the shipping bill, which promises to develop the only se- rious oppositioH confronting any of the legislation on the administration inn perative programme
 If we adhere to the action of last nights democratic caucus" said Majority
 
 son why adjournment cannot be taken by August 19.
 Such measures as the child labor and immigration bills, flood control and voca- tional education bills. the woman's suf- frage amendment and other measures on the calendar were worthy of considera- tion, but the caucus determined that other matters were of more urgent importance and that these should go over until the winter session, with an understanding that they would be taken up as soon as pos sible after Congress meets in Decem- ber."
 The democratic steering committee will meet early this week and probably will agree upon a programme for considera- tion of the following measures in the order named: Appropriations, shipping, workmen's compensation, corrupt prac- tices, Philippines self-government, civil war and Spanish war pensions and inter- state commerce commission enlargement bills. All of these have passed the House. The federal workmen's compensation bill, it was reported today. is to be given precedence over the child labor and inn migration bills because of the keen in- terest President Wilson has exhibited ir it.
 While the Senate is finishing it's pro- gramme the House will remain in prac- tical inaction
