Tribune Wan.Tads Bring Results.

emSnate. Don't attempt to verify any,
 thing; this is waste of your time and effort, and not part of your duty to yourself or to those who have placed thelr confidence e(and, incidentally, their blll) with you. Accept blindly any verbal or written attacks, it matters not how slanderous, made by those who do not wish the bill passed. This is common hon. eSty-very common!
 Rue Eff the bill has been given into your keeping by women, or by those
 .misguidSd females sometimes called sunragettes, all the more reason why you need not be too careful to stay put. espe- cially if it is more comfortable or con venlent to turn your back on them. Wom- en are not voters; they are all socialists and femimsts (whatever these may be). especially is this true of Alabama women. who are at heart south -haters and negro lovers.
 Rule S-Adopt as your slogan the old aoage, Wise men oft do change their minds" Work this overtime; live up to 1t; 1t will help you make people realize that you are wise, and also that you have mind. Besides 20 years is long enough to have faith in any one cause. person or set of persons; 20 minutes ought surely be enough for green legislator.
 Iluie f-WHaIeVer else you forget, don't neglect the glorious traditions of the south; also the negro. Remember that when common sense, logic, reason, jus tice and expediency fail, you can count on tradition and the negro. Don't permit sectionalism to die it's natural death; fan It's fickering flames, keep it alive!
 Rule 5-In case the above rule is ob served as it should be, do not make the mistake of presenting all the facts and figures. For example, talk or write about the 3,0O00N negro women in the south. but never let anybody know there are S,7SS,901 white women. Your innate but mistaken sense of justice will keep the S,c0O,OO0 in political degradation for fear of the S,0O0,O00. Be certain to suppress this fact; namely, that in Alabama alone there are almost 150.0OO more white women than negro women. You can see readily that if this were generally known, the lover throwing of white supremacy statement would at once be made ridiculous.
 If followed with any degree of persist erce, the above simple rules are guar anteed to produce quickly the most as- tCnishing results. You will no longer he considered green legislator. but an over ripe one.

Who Is Most Famous Ala bamian: Semmes, Yancey, Pelham, Ryan, Morgan, Wheeler, Emma Sansom? No, Curry

Washington, March 25.-(Special.) 1.-The conventional expression of comparison in Washington is, AS funny as the hall of fame.
 The hall of fame, or statuary hall, it's proper appellation, was set aside in 18L- in that each state of the union might place therein not more than two statues of its deceased citizens 'illustrious for historic renown or from distinguished civic or military service.'
 It would seem to the casual observer tkat no man should be represented in the hall of fame whose name would not be recognized at once by the school child of tender age. But it is a safe guess that as result of the selfish astute- ress of politicians, no school child, with out special study, could give a reason why more than one-third of the statues are standing there so nobly.
 SOME FAMOUS MEN
 It would be interesting were the school teachers of Alabama to ask their pupils some bright morning what distinguished service was rendered by, let us say: Will liam Allen, T. H. Benton, F. P. Blair, Lewis Cass, Jacob Collomer. J. l.. M. Curry, John Hanson, James Harlan, John J. Ingalls,, John E. Kenna, William King, s. J. Kirkwood o. P. Morton, Francis H. Pierpont Alexander Ramsey, James Shields George L. Shoup, Richard Stoc-.- ton, Zebulon B. Vance and any number of others.
 And yet each of these gentlemen is represented in statuary hall as having been illustrious for historic renown 1T distinguished from civic or military serv-

VICAR OFFERS TO
 BOX HIS DETRACTORS

London, March 15.-(Special.)- LA chal- lenge to don the boxing gloves with all individuals who have been calling him shirker in the present crisis has been made by the Vicar of the Somerset min ing village of Coleford, near Bath. the Rev. J. H. Evans. He has been receiving anonymous letters urging him to practice what he breaches and join the army.
 Here are his own words in his parish magazine "The Vicar of this parish ha S hit upon the following measures te~sneet his own case: Tn school, college and curate days he was supposed to defend himself ably in the boxing ring. and does not remember being beaten under fairly equal conditions. He is now ready to put on the gloves with any of these unknown persons if they will reveal their identity in public Further in order to relieve any likely miner-recruit who may have a conscientious reason, as for in stance, the support of widowed mother. he is not ashamed or afraid, but willing to take his place in the mine and give the wages to the dependent, if piece work can be arranged which will not interfere with clerical duties"

To Change Refrigerating Methods

Lcndcn, March 15.-(Special )--United States and Canadian methods of refrig- era ting fish may be adopted in England Agitation in favor of such step was started here at recent meeting of the Cold Storage and Ice assocaition. when it was pointed out that the prejudice of the English people against frozen fish was largely due to the fact that the freez- ing was seldom begun when the fish was fresh as is the case in the United States and Canada. The question of the development of the supply of refrig- crsted fish arose when it was stated that last year the government purchased frozen meat valued at more than $l25.- 00OO00. Lack of proper development in the methods of preserving fish was the only reason why the public did not buy almost as much of it as it did of meat What was needed, it was pointed out was cold storage at the fishing ports, constructed specially for freezing the fish directly after it was landed

CURRY'S QUALIFICATIONS

Curry is said to have been a states man, educator, patriot, orator." But if the curious would know in what manner he contributed to the upbuilding of Ala bama as great commonwealth among the commonwealths of the nation; or to what extent he gave of his time, his money or his talent in educating the young whose parents were too poor to send them into the glare of the great light of day; or when or where by re- markable bravery, acute suffering or his- toric service he earned the title of pa triot; or on what occasion he delivered a message of such import that the people who heard or who read were impressed,
 or thrilled, or driven to do that which otherwise they would not have done they are respectfully referred to the encyclope-

ATABAMA's REPRESENTATIVE

Were the teachers to ask their pupils, "Who represents Alabama in the hall of fame?" their minds would instantly rever to Admiral Semmes, a really noble figure; Father Ryan, who sang so sweetly of the cause that was lost and the banner that was furled; Gallant Pel- ham, who won, through his remarkable skill in handling artillery the praise of the great Roman, Lee, and who so young, poured out his life blood for the sake of his country; William l.. Yancey the secession leader of the south, and the orator of the American continent who should rank with the more famous Web ster and Clay and Calhoun, and even Patrick Henry; William R. King, a Vice President of the United States; John T. Morgan, whose. intellect is regarded as one of the most scintillating in the his- tory of the Senate; Joe Wheeler, distin- guished for his military service in the civil and Spanish-American wars; Emma Sansom, the gallant girl of Gadsden; who, through incomparable bravery, saved the army of General Forrest from capture.
 But not one of them would think of Curry. And it is Curry's stature which Alabama, through some remarkable req son or coincident, established in the hall of fame And, as another slap to the pride of the state, he stands next that best and greatest of them all, Robert E. ga If Virginia

ice. Reference to libraries of many an- cient homes would indicate that if the above are justly entitled to recognition so signal, any American boy, with money enough to pay for the marble and with a friendly politician on whose shoulder to lean, may hand his name and figure down to gaping posterity as one who nobly contributed to the honor and glory of his country.
 With the exception of a few former members of Congress and a number of students whose minds are alert in retain ing 8 sense of the incongrous, it is pos sible that no more than a score of all the people of Alabama know the name of the illustrious gentleman placed by their states as token of grateful recog- milton of distinguished services rendered, i, tbo l,au of forna

Eminent Alabamian Stands Beside Lee-COnfederates Denied Admission Until Virginia Forced a Change by Vigorous Stand

dia or to the knowledge of the politicians who, by splendid maneuvering, achieved for the deceased such honor so greatly to be desired.
 IE the hall, many eminent men are rep- resented. Virginia has Washington and Lee; Vermont, Ethan Allen;-Texas, Sam Houston and Stephen Austin; Maryland Charles Carroll, last surviving singer of the Declaration of Independence; Penn sylvania, Robert Fulton; Rhode Island, Nathaniel Greene and Roger Sherman; New York, Robrt Livingston, who com pleted with France the Louisiana pur- chase New Hampshire, John Stark, who exclaimed: There are the Red Coats, and before night they will be ours or Molly Stark will be widow; Illinois, Francis Willard; Massachusetts, John Winthrop; Indiana, Lew Wallace; Tennessee An drew Jackson; New Hampshire, Daniel Webster
 Although the bill which created the hall of fame provides that each state may name it's sons to be honored, until quite recently care was taken lest recognition be given to those heroes who wore the gray Of course, General Shields, one of the three federal generals whipped by Stonewall Jackson in the famous Shenan. doah campaign, easily acquired place, as did Lew Wallace, unknown until he wrote Ben Hur. and Garfield, unknown until he achieved the presidency. But none of the heroes of Dixie were recog- nized until Virginia-gre-.t in almost everything 1t has ever done-insisted that Lees statue be admitted.
 LEE OR WASHINGTON
 "Unless you accept Lee," cried Virginia, you cannot have Washington
 And the Senate fearing for the fate of the hall without it's Washington, yielded to the insistence of Virginia. And there in all his glory, commanding in stature, with face reflecting the intelligence of the mind and nobility of the heart. stands Lee in full dress uniform of the Confed- crate States of America.
 And by his side-to the right-stands Washington. And by his side--to the left stands Curry.
 Nevertheless there is a balm in Gilead For in the event that Alabama, approach ing some future day with the statue of one of it's heroic sons, encounters a frowning Senate, it can with certain and calm disdain point to the nature of Curry, and declare: Unless you suffer the establishment of this new likeness. l will ruthless deprive you of that"
 And that the Senate would immediately come to it's senses is generally predicted
