subject which has been quiescent since southerners. some years ago. defeated the force bill of Senator Lodge.
 And President Harding and his ad ministration does not look kindly on the project of the gentleman from Ma ssachusetts. Representative Fess of Ohio, who taught negro school and permitted graduates to sit at tables with his family. and Dyer o' Missouri and Madden of Illinois, who represent districts a ma jority of the voters of which are negroes, support Tinklam. But the minority. it is in- dicated. is very small But the re- publicans Say nothing. because the negro vote in many states of tue union constitutes the balance Of power.
 Cnuscus Last Thursday
 The republicans catcused last Thursday night on the Tinkham bill. Tinkham spoke for more than an hour. Representative Herrick of OK lahoma, who never saw within the enclosure of a school house, and whose letters and remarks have pro- duced merriment on many occasions, destroyed him in a paragraph Her
  low l have read about, Quix-ote. i believe they called him, who rode .. perfectly good horse against a wind mill, for no good purpose. or pur- pose at all, and hurt the horse.
 Thereafter. it was demonstrated that quorum was broken, and the re- publicans, much to the chagrin of Tinkham, were forced to adjourn.
 While there are other pro-negro bills. including the antilynching bil. by Dyer. being considered at the present time by the Judiciary com mittee, it begins to be evident that the negro will be disappointed vita the Harding administration. There IS no question but that in the begin ming, he dreamed that he would cone into his own. that he would be the power behind the throne. It is evi . dent that he will not only not be, but that he will not have the influ- ence that he has wielded in other administrations.
 It is reported, in this connection, that the Harding administration will recognize the white man in the south and only the white man, that. furth- ermore. in dispensing patronage.

 we are advised that tte Secretary of Commerce has already approved the suggestion made by representa- tives of the lumber. automobile. and certain other industries which the Secretary considers basic. that they win furnish voluntarily information of character similar to that offered by the coal industry and without any further legislation. This proposed ar rangement with such industries is in accord with the long established GUS tom under which reports have volun- tarily been furnished by producers of all agricultural products to the de- partment of agriculture.
 "The coal industry has for many years past voluntarily given informa ton 10 different departments of the government such as the geological survey. to the entire satisfaction of government officials and the public. without any enabling legislation therefor.
 There IS no ground TOT ulScflnll- . hating between the coal industry and the several other industries and en- acting special and inauisitorial leg islat.on of the character of the Ere linehuysen bill"
 The association maintains that the bill, by it's very phrasing. shows an intent to establish government con trol over a private industry. in that il provides, among other things. that the Secretary of Commerce and the director of the bureau of mines shall each year submit report to Congress with such recommendations Tor further legislation relating to the mining. distribution. transportation or sale of coal as they may deem necessary"

black and tan outfits will be ig- nored It is known that republicans from the south appointed to office up to the present time have been af- tiliated with white organization There are two exceptions, both cCn- fined to Florida, but it is understood l that these appointments were made without knowledge of all the facts involved.
 There Is reason to doubt, however. that the Harding administration will completely flount the negro. Were the administrat ton to do so. it would find favor in the south even if 1t failed in it's object of gaining a per mament foothold below the Mason Dixon line. But politically, it would lose. To the republican party, in material way the negroes of one state, say Ohio. are worth more than the entire south in normal times.
 But Tinkham is tinkering again. Watch my smoke Wednesday night" he. says.

MANY CITIZENS DO NOT
 KNOW STATES OUTPUT

Washington, June 21.--t tSpeeiaL)- Three million years ago, the basilo- saurus cetoides, or zeuglodon, flour ished in the waters which covered what is now the state of Alabama.
 The mammal. as biz as room, and 55 feet in length, was builded Of skel- etons found in Tallapoosa county. Since 1896 when 1t was given a place in the museum in Washington 1t has attracted the attention of thousands of visitors, It is a produet>ef Ala oama which few Alabamians know anything.
 The following sketch was written by a recent inspector Of the museum with the request that ,t oe made to appear in this newspaper. While it is in part facetious. in essential re- spects it is accurate:
 By far the most conspicuous of the specimens of extinct animal life eX- hibited at the New National museum at Washington. D. G. is that of the Basilosaurus Cetoides. called more in- timately by its friends the Zeulglo- don. This mammal some 3.00o,O00 years ago. inhabiting the seas which covered what is now the state of Ala bama and beholding with q presciennt eye the future of that spot chose it as the place for his final sleep. sigh ling as he did so--and this is the true origin of the name-';'Alabama Here We Rest" And there he rested. em- bedded in the fossil formation which is in the vicinity of Cocoa until he was excavated and restored. Now he swims, forever suspended in q glass case.
 Fossil Material
 The fossil material was collected in 1896 and from parts of two skele- tons this specimen was formed. Be- holding the length, 55 feet, one of a suspicious nature is apt to wonder ii an extra vertebra or two haven't been slipped in, although Mir. Gilmore, re- search expert, proves scientifically tbat if anything the skeleton is too short.
 This restored Zeuglodon from Ala bama occupies the center of the room. In appearance it resembles giant spinal column attached to dragons head of terrible teeth. There are a few apologetic ribs and small flapper- like front feet evidently grown on as an after thought.
 ITO quote the inscription plate:
 "'The Zeuglodon belongs to an ex- tinct order or group of swimming mammals which inhabited the sea In great numbers during the Eocene, a geographical period dating back In time three or four million years. The ancestry of this group is not known and, as it has left no descendants, lit- tie can be said regarding its relation' ship to other groups Of mammals Many characters of the sketelal struc- ture suggest a more or less close re- lationship to the whale.
