HOW SUIT ORIGINATED

It is due to the medical fraternity, as a whole. to say that of over 300 mem- bers of the Jefferson County Medical society sonly 112 of them voted for Dr. Harrington, and that 3S out of these 1l2 were contract doctors in the employ of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company As to Dr. Charles M Nice's suggestion of a compromise, it is we'll to says that neither the board of revenue nor the city commission have anything to do with the suit now in court against Dr. Harrington. That suit is backed up like a stone wall by over 5000 legal voters of this city and county, and it is to be a fight to the finish. A large delegation Of citizens will likely be sent to Wash ington to protest and ask for Dr. liar rington's recall. His usefulness as county health officer is gone, and we can have no cooperation as long as he remains at the head of this department. It is a strange thing that he was not brought here as a government expert for six months, instead of electing him health officer for three years on a 12 months furlough
 Many of us recall the dark days from 1865 to 1S76 when the south was overrun by carpetbaggers from the north sent down here by the United States govern ment to hold office over us, and rammed down our throats over our protest and of the heroic struggle of the men of the south to drive them out and restore the government to the people of the south The spirit of 1876 still lives, and Dr. Parke and his small following may as we'll rec oncile themselves to this fact He has started the biggest fuss ever started in Alabama, something he cannot stop. Just watch the fur fly, doctor, for the next two years.
 The people are supreme and are going to be consulted about who holds office in Alabama from now on, henceforth and forever more. The days of the medical hierarchy and all other hierarchies in Ala bama are numbered.
 Meme Meme Tekel Ufarsin'' is written on the wall
 Some day in the near future some peo- pie In Birmingham are going to hit their heads against the bedpost and wake up to the fact that something has happened around here Everybody knows it now. except a few doctors and one editor. Yours truly. JAMES R. TINDAL.

AUSTIN, Tex, Aug 24.-James E.. Ferguson was suspended from the of flee of governor of Texas when the board of nine managers named by the house of representatives presented to the senate tWenty-one articles of inn peachment, alleging official mis- conduct.
 w. P. Hobby, lieutenant governor, automatically succeeded to the gover- norship pending disposition of the charges in the senate. The senate formally designated next Wednesday as the time for beginning the trial.
 Tonight's action was in conformity with a resolution adopted by the house yesterday in appointing the board of managers to formulate articles of im- peachment after three weeks investi- gation of charges preferred against MT. Ferguson by Speaker F. O. Fuller. This committee reported to the house today and the twenty one articles con- tained in the bill of impeachment were voted upon separately. All passed by a safe and some by a wide margin and immediately were sent to the senate. where the date of the beginning of the trial was set.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-The sen ates program in the contest over the conscription of wealth to pay war eX- penses was unexpectedly changed to- day. Consideration of the amend ments of Senator La Toilette and Senator Hollis to increase the war tax bills by draft on individual incomes went over and the day was spent in debate and the tentative disposition of other provisions. Fur ther action on both the income and the war profits sections may be post poned until next week.
 Tomorrow Senator Simmons plans to take up the postage tax section including the one cent increase pro- posed on letters and the much dis puted sections affecting publishers.
 The senate tentatively agreed today to the finance committees amend ments trebling corporations income taxes by adding four per cent to their tax rate, to levy about S360,- p00.000 more revenues. Tentative ap- proval also was given to elimination of the houses retroactive taxes on 1916 incomes, which were estimated to raise s10S00O, 900.
 Senator La Toilette is working on his remaining amendments to in crease individual income taxes. They propose to raise about s600,000, GOO and $505, 5,000,O00 respectively instead of s49O,OOO.OO0 provided under the pending bill.
 Senator Weeks plans to speak to- morrow in support of his amendment to strike out provisions levying a special tax upon publishers incomes and the proposed increase of II cents pound on second class mail. Senator Hardwick is prepared to ad- vocate his amendment to place a special graduated tax on advertising sections of publications, and Senator McKellar of Tennessee to press his zone postage rate system substi- tutes.
 Most of today's debate was devpted 1 to Senator McCumber's amendment which would place a liability or partnerships for the income tax o1 their members.
 Senator Jones of New Mexico, urg- l ing that all dollars be submitted tC a tax in order to mage them goot
 dollars instead of ''slackers" declared
 a provision similar to that offered
 by Senator McCumber should be in.

 Sheriff Wheeler would not say whether he had been asked to pro- tect Moore in Bisbee or not. He did say that Moore was not consid- cred an actual I. W. w. and that any investigation he might make here would reflect credit on the actions of himself and the Bisbee people The sheriff added that every care would be taken to protect the attorney dur ing his visit. Wheeler would not comment on the reports that Cover nor Campbell and the federal author ities had made the request with an ultimatum of having federal troops sent into the Warren district

MOORE PLANS AGAIN
 4 BLSBEE INVASION

Fred H. Moore, an attorney of Los Angeles, who is here as counsel for the men deported from Bisbee, July 12, who are encamped here, made public tonight two telegrams he said he had received referring to his re- ported intention to return to Bisbee to resume his investigation of the deportations. MT. Moore was de- ported from Bisbee last month when he went there on a similar mission.
 Both telegrams were dated at Bis bee yesterday.
 The first one, signed "ButH Little read: We are planning a recep- tion for you. Do not delay coming much longer. Be sure to bring Bill Cleary and Embree with you. If any of the other fellows wish to come bring them also. Lots of fun and amusement for all." | Mir. Cleary, who is referred to in the telegram, is widely known | Arizona attorney who was among the 116S men deported July 12 MT l Moore said he interpreted the sigma to the recent lynching in Butte, of Frank Little, an industrial Worker of the World leader
 The second telegram read: "Wel- come to Bisbee with open arms" II was signed "7-12-17" This sigma ture, Mir Moore said, obviously re- fers to the date of the Bisbee de- portation.
 MT. Moore has not indicated wher he intends to return to Bisbee.

RELIEF FUR THE BE[C|ANS
 \ TRADE WITH THE DUTCH

Swedish mission had sold at cost 552,- the Belgian relief commission. The wheat, which was bought by the Swedish government last January and has been held in elevators ever since, will go forward immediately.
 In return the Swedish government will be allowed to ship 270,000 bushels of rye of the new American crop which will be available in September or October Negotiations between United States officials and representa- tiveS of the neutrals have been in progress several weeks.
 The agreement is understood to pro- vide that one third of the grain is for Hollands own use and the remainder for the Belgians.
 It is understood also that the use of ships will be given this country both by Norway and Holland for such trade as does not conflict with United States game, laws, thus releasing much Amer ican and allied tonnage for the carry ing of munitions and troops. Congress probably will be asked to make il legal for ships under a foreign flag but with an American charter to en- gage in the. coastwise trade. What arrangement is to be made tc meet the needs of Switzerland and Denmark could not be learned today but the general understanding is that a certain amount of the old crop wheat
 with some fats will be allowed to these countries as well as to Norway, Hol- land and Sweden.
 In every case promise is obtained from the neutrals that no materia | furnished them under this agreement l is to be re-exported to countries with whom the allies are at war.

.UNSHATTERED FAITH IF THIS GOVERNMENT
 IN RUSSIAN REPUBLIC
GRecublican A. p. Leased Wjre1

WASHINGTON, August 24.-T United States reaffirmed today it's faith in the new Russian democracy and gave concrete evidence of it's con- fidence by the loaning of another hun dred million dollars to the provisional government.
 Announcement of the loan came from the treasury soon after Secretary Lansing had denied formally that re- ports from Russia were of an unfavor- able nature and declared that on the contrary confidential despatches to the government were the basis for his be- lief that the administration at Petro- grad was strengthening it's position
 T regard the government of Russia as stronger today than it has been for a month" MT. Lansing said. '1 mean in general, both from political and military points of view. This opinion is based upon reports more or less con- fidential than We have been getting.
 So far as the military situation is concerned, the secretary indicated that he felt little concern over the advance upon Riga by the Germans, recalling that the place had been evacuated five times during the war. Major General Scott chief of staff who was a mem Der of the Root commission, agreed
 
 an important strategical loss. A Ger man advance upon Petrograd from Riga would be followed by the removal of the seat of government to Moscow, in seat of the conservatives upon whom the allies are counting to main tain firm republican government and the city looked upon by millions of Russians as the natural capital of their country
 In addition to his statement Secre- taryq Lansing made public a note he had just sent to Ambassador Bakh- meteff replying to message of assur- ance from foreign minister Teres- tchenko on August and conveying or behalf of President Wilson a renewed expression of sympathy and confidence for the Russian government. The secretary still declined to give out the departments despatches iron Russia upon which other officials oi the government have based less opti- mistic views concerning the situation ! there He explained that the informa l tion in question should come from thu provisional government if made public 1 at all

 That MT. Ferguson consistently re- fused to reveal the source of 'ques- tionable" loans, aggregating S156,000, thus placing himself in contempt of the house; that he misappropriated $5, 5,6OO of the states money and con Verted it to his own use; that he abused the power of veto and violated the constitution when he vetoed prac- tically the entire appropriations for the maintenance of the Texas uni versity for the next two years.
 Other charges concerned alleged placing of large sums of state money without security and without interest in a bank in which Ferguson is d stockholder; violation of state bank ing laws in that the governor borrowed from his own bank a sum more than twice greater than the law permits; alleged exercise of undue and improper influence over the university regents and that the governor failed to return to the state treasury several thousand dollars illegally expended for main- tenance of the governors mansion and which he had previously promised to restore.

SPOKANE, Wash, Aug. 24.-A pe- tition for a writ of habeas corpus in behalf of James Rowan, district secretary of the Industrial Workers of the World and seventeen others arrested with him last Sunday by Major Clement Wilkins, in command of the Idaho guardsmen, was denied in the superior court today. Judge Hugo Oswald. who heard arguments and evidence on the petition, ruled that Major Wilkins answer showed that he was acting as a duly author ized officer of the United States and that in these circumstances the state court had no jurisdiction.
 Examination was begun today by Major Wilkins of Rowan who ordered general strike of northwestern Industrial Workers of the World members. The strike order effective last Monday was not observed. Row
 ans examination, Major Wilkins said was preliminary to a court martial.
 Evidence that many of the Indus trial Workers of the World accused of fomenting strikes in the north west are German citizens and draft evaders was introduced at the habeas corpus proceeding by United States Attorney Garrecht.
 Assistant State Attorney General Henderson, called as a witness for the government, said he was here as a representative of Governor Listner United States Marshal McGovern testified that many I.
