One of Them Denounces Wu

WANT CHINESE EXCLUDED
Mr. Mc8we«ney 8a y a the Japanese
Should Be Excluded Alto, at They
Are More Undetlrable Than
the Chlneae.
Scranton, Pa., December 6.—In the con
tention of the Federation of Labor today
the overshadowing feature was the ad
dress of Edward F. McSweeny, deputy
commissioner of Immigration at the port
of New York, on the subject of Immigra
tion. He spoke for more than an hour
and w*as generously applauded for the
great amount of information that he
gave the delegates.
In today’" two sessions eighty-eight
resolutions were presented, and referred
to committees.
Four of them demanded the re-cnact
ment of the Chinese exclusion act and
one commended President Roosevelt for
the position he took In his message in
reference to the Chinese question.
Max Hayes of Cleveland introduced a
resolution providing for the admittance
of miners under 18 years of age into
unions at a reduced per capita tax.
Protest Against Ship Subsidy.
Delegate Dietrich of Washington, D. C.,
presented a resolution protesting against
subsidy legislation by Congress and an
other resolution called for an appoint
ment of a committee of five to present a
memorial to Congress to prohibit the
granting of injunctions by courts against
organized labor. Other resolutions pro
vided for boycotts against concerns lo
cated in various parts of the country,
giving seamen full right to quit any
merchant vessel on which the service
has been obnoxious to him and for uni
versal labels.
After the resolution had been referred
to the proper committee, Edward F. M.
McSweeney, deputy commissioner of Im
migration at the port of New York, ad
dressed the delegates. “The spirit of the
law," he said, “is being violated by the
wholesale.’’ He asserted that the emi
grants who were killed In the Michigan
wreck last week were no doubt under
contract to work In California, to which
State they were en route when their lives
were crushed out.
t Speaking of the Chinese exclusion act,
Mr. McSweeney said the Japanese should
also be excluded from the United States
because they are more undesirable than
the Chinamen. In conclusion he said the
immigration laws should be revived and
reconstructed from the beginning by ex
perts.
Among the more Important resolutions
presented at the afternoon session were
these:
Denounces Wu Ting Fang.
Denouncing Wu Ting Fang, the Chin
ese minister for having made the alleg
ed remark that when the American peo
ple “are biased, 'they are beyond argu
ment and reason does not appeal to
them.’’ ,
Asking working men to unlt^ for in
dependent political action In qrtfarty hav
ing for its avowed object#fhe overthrow
of the capitalistic s\>\ern of production
«d distribution, the establishment
^ Bf commonwealth.
Asking Congress to amend the Geary
act so as to exclude Chinese, Japanese,
Malays and all people of Asiatic extrac
tion and to prevent the use of the Am
erican Pacific Island possessions as a
bridges over which excluded races may
pass to the United States.
Denouncing anti-scalping legislation be
cause the ticket brokerage business 1s
legitimate, a convenience to the public
and a moans of cheapening railroad
travel.
Asking Congress for the right of suf
frage for the citizens of the District of
Columbia.
Providing for a general defense fund
by levying a tax of 2 cents per month
on every man in the American Feder
ation of Labor.
Amending the alien contract labor law
so as to include musicians.
Every Exertion
a Task
There is failure of the strength
to do and the power to endure; a
feeling of weakness all over the
body.
The vital functions are impaired,
food does not nourish, and the
whole system is run down.
A medicine that strengthens the
stomach, perfects digestion, invig
orates and tones is needed.
What Hood's Sarsaparilla did for Mrs. L. B.
Garland, Shady, Tenn., it has done for others.
She took it when she was all run down — with
out appetite, losiug flesh, and unable to do
her work. It restored her appetite, increased
her weight, and made her well and strong.
This is her own unsolicited statement.

Third Da' ot the Conference
at Greenville
ORPHANS’HOME TOO SMALL
It Now Has Ninety Inmates and the
Rev. Mr. Jones Says There Are
Twenty-five Orphans Which
It Should Receive.
Greenville December 6.—(Special)—The
Alabama Methodist Conference met here
In Its third days' session this morning.
As announced yesterday the Rev. H. D.
Moore of Opelika read the lesson and
conducted the opening services. The les
son was taken from the 14th chapter of
Mark and the remarks of Dr. Moore up
on the lesson were most timely and were
delivered In a forcible and logical man
ner. He spoke principally of the life and
character of Peter, pointing out that
there were some very good points In his
character yet he was at all times Impru
dent and weak. He said that he was
especially weak In that he was too self
confident. That self-confidence In a bus
iness way was all right but that a God
fearing man should learn to lean upon
the Lord and feel that his strength was
not In himself but was at all times In
the Father. After the Doctor had com
pleted his remarks the bishop took the
gavel and assumed charge of the body.
Dr. A. J. Lamar was appointed to con
duct the services at the opening of the
session tomorrow.
The committee on Confgerence relations
recommended the following ministers for
the supernumerary relation: Rev. L.
F. Doudell and C. A. Pilly.
This committee alBO reported the fol
>wlng for the supernumerary relation:
They were those of the past year as
reported yesterday and I. F. Caldwell.
S. A. Pilly and A. E. Easley.
The Union Springs district was called
in answer to question 20 and W. S. Wade,
presiding elder, made quite a lengthy
report on the state of his charge. He
said that there had been a good deal of
sickness among the preachers In his dis
trict, bait the work had been very good;
that there had been about 800 conversions
to Methodism In his district during the
past year. He pointed out that the
Southern part of his district was In the
formative stage and that It would be
some time before much would be done
there In a spiritual way. The district
parsonage he said was in debt when he
was appointed presiding elder and that It
was still In debt but not so much as It
was when he was appointed.
The Orphans’ Home.
The Rev. T. H. Jones reported the Or
phans' Home as In better condition than
heretofore, hut that It Is not yet up to
j the proper standard. There are, accord
i Ing to his report, ninety orphans In the
j home, and he stated that he knew of at
! least twenty-five more who should be
there. He called the attention of the
conference to the fact that Dr. T. P.
Whitby, Selma, Ala., was the person to
whbm all orphanage correspondence
should be addressed, he having been
elected to fill the place on the board
made vacant by the death of Judge
Wood.
The names of the preachers who were
to be received as deacons and ordained
were read. They took the usual obliga
tion. These were E. W. Coleman, D. P.
Slaughter, W. R. Blckerstaff and J. B.
Trotter.
At this Juncture the bookB and periodi
cal committee asked leave to report, and
the report was read. The report dealt
with the contemplated consolidation of
the New Orleans and Alabama Advocate,
and created considerable discussion. B.
R. Bricken read the report, which sought
to raise a committee of three to confer
on the part of the \labama conference
with a like committee of the Mississippi
conference relative to the said consolida
tion.
Discuss Consolidation,
Dr. J. M. Mason made a speech on the
report and said that the poor receipts of
the Nashville Advocate were due to the
fact that there were so many other
Methodist papers to be patronized by the
church people, and that the vagueness
In the report of that paper was because
of the fact that the management did not
have the time to attend to it.
B. R. Bricken and A. J. Lamar spoke
on that part of the resolution which re
lated to the consolidation of the papers,
and J. B. Cummings offered a substitute
which struck out that part of the re
port. Dr. Rush, E. C. Boyd and Dr.
Erquhart than made short talks, and
the substitute finally prevailed. This
leaves the consolidation matter where It
stood.
E. L. Crawford presented a resolution
memoralising the general conference to
locate several Methodist papers over the
South at its next meeting. Adopted.
The church extension board was called
to meet tonight.
The election of the delegates to the
general conference will occur tomorrow
morning.
Mr. B. M. Washburn, treasurer of the
board of finance. Is here. This is the
third conference he has attended in
Greenville, and he has been a delegate to
every conference for the past twenty
five years. He Is generally liked In the
conference, and In this place.

vention of the trans-Mlsslsslppl Whole
sale Druggists Association left the city

and treasurer.
Mr. Slnnlge denied the statement yes
terday that the wholesale association had

ono the "cut-rate'’ retail druggists of

COLONEL FALKNER
SPEMM ROADS
Addressed Final Meeting of
Good Roads Association
WILL PUBLISH REGISTRARS
Governor Jelks In Favor of Having
Names Announced as Fast as
Selected—Appoints Jury
Commissioners.
Montgomery, December 6.—(Special.)—
The State good roads convention con
cluded Its sessions today and finally ad
journed. The sessions have been largely
attended and It Is believed that a strong
sentiment for better roads has been
aroused.
The closing session today was one of
the most interesting of the convention.
Father W. A. Kerrigan of St. Peter’s
church opened the convention with an
elegant prayer for divine blessing.
President Poole then introduced Colonel
J. M. Falkner as the “Father of Good
Roads of Alabama.”
Colonel Falkner Talks.
Colonel Falkner related the history of
the good roads of this county from the
days of reconstruction until the present
stage of road development. Many per
sonal experiences were cited by the
speaker of the difficulties of travel in
Montgomery until the road bi\lldtng of
the county was begun a few years ago.
He said that the people were as much
entitled to good roads as a judge was en
titled to his salary. Colonel Falkner de
plored the fact that this section of the
country was a buying one and sent out
very little from It.
The permanent issue is now, “Shall
we have Good Roads?” The first chert
road in the county cost $5,000 per mile
and the later roads have continually de
creased in cost. Colonel Falkner stated
that the work must be organized in all
the counties and he, as chairman of the
executive committee would give them
some work to do. Colonel Falkner made
a strong appeal for rural mail delivery
and the only way for this system to he
brought about was good roads. As Colo
nel Falkner closed he was given an ova
tion by the audience.
J. A. Rountree, editor of the Dixie
Manufacturer introduced the following
resolution:
Whereas, The Alabama State Good
Roads Association in convention assem
bled appreciating the visit, speeches and
services of Hon. Martin Dodge director
of the office of Road Jnquirles and As

Says He is Going to Europe
for Rest
LEADERS BORN, NOT MADE
Don't Mind the City Reporter So Much,
But the Country Reporter
Makes Him Tired—To
Win Derby.
New York, December 6.—Richard Croker
has strongly backed up his declaration
that he wishes to be relieved of the bur
den of "boss" of Tammany Hall. Mr.
Croker says that he Is more tired than
ever, and hopes that some good man
will turn up who can be trusted with the
active leadership.
No one who has talked with Mr. Croker
on the subject believes that he wishes
to do more than to lend the leadership for
a little while. Then he can go abroad and
forget all about the Tammany men who
have a hard, cheerless winter before
them. Perhaps in the next State or mu
nicipal campaign, when it may appear to
Mr. Croker that there is a chance to do
business again, he is expected to show
up and relieve the temporary "boss.”
When Mr. Croker was asked today who
woud be likely to succeed him as leader
he assumed a wise and thoughtful mien
and assured his questioner that political
leaders are born, not made.
Born, Not Made.
"Why,” said he, "leaders of Tammany
Hall are not elected. They Just grow
up. I can’t tell you the name of the
man who will succeed me, but I can tell
you the kind of man he ought to be.
He ought to be Independent because dis
trict leaders and others will come after
him with all sorts of demands. He must
stand firm, and must be able to refuse
the demands made upon him without be
ing overthrown. Of course the executive
committee of Tammany Hall could del
egate some one to attend to the duties of
the active leadership, or to assist the real
leader. That would be possible. But
real leaders are not appointed, they
grow."
Having delivered this speech, Mr.
Croker appeared to feel more comfort
able. He was even cheerful.
"I have- to laugh," he said, "at the
funny stories printed about me in the
newspapers. I’ll Just give you an illus
tration. There Is a race horse by the
name of Boss Croker. Well, two or three
weeks ago, or about the time the Demo
cratic Club gave mo that complimentary
dinner, a newspaper received a cable
saying that Boss Croker had arrived in
Dover. Of course, all the reporters in
town were soon chasing around looking
for me, to make sure that I had not gone
away, and I was almost pestered to
death. I w'as enough interested in the
rumor that I had arrived In Dover to
Investigate It, and I soon found out
that that race horse called Boss Croker
had been shipped by way of Dover to
race In Prance.
Tired of Newspapers.
"Now that Just shows you how a man
can be annoyed by these newspaper
yarns. That’s one reason why I go away.
I’m tired and I need a rest. I can get
recreation abroad.
"I’ll tell you one thing—I’m going in to
win the Derby. If I win It I may return
earlier than usual, but no matter how
long I stay, I want It understood that I
am a resident of New York—yes, a per
manent resident. I only go away for my
health—to escape politicians and newspa
per reporters ”
Mr. Croker hesitated, and then said,
somewhat apologetically:
"I don’t mind the reporters in this city
so much, but I do mind these country re
porters who chase after me when I go
out to the country for a little vacation.
That’s the trouble—I can’t stand being
chased around. I need a rest. Oh, it s all
very well for the men who have ofTlces.
But that won’t do for me. I*m no office
seeker, and I’m not going to be run to
death by men looking for offices. I’m
going abroad to get some rest."
ENSLEY POLICEMEN
ARE SUSPENDED
NIGHT CAPTAIN MACON EXPEL
LED AND TWO PATROLMEN ARE
SUSPENDED ON ACCOUNT OF
BURGLARY THURSDAY NIGHT.
Night Captain of Police Toney Macon
of Ensley has been expelled from the
Ensley police force and the two night
patrolmen have been suspending await
ing Investigation of the City Council and
Aldermanlc Board, according to a report
received at the office of Chief of Police
Austin yesterday.
The report says that Captain Macon
was fired at a special meeting of the
Council and the Aldermanlc Board of
Ensley yesterday morning, and that It
was proven that he went home to bed
Thursday night at 9:80 o'clock when he
should have been on duty all night.
The whole matter grew out of the In
vestigation of the burglary of the Ens
ley Hardware Company’s Btore Thurs
day night. On a charge or not attending
to duty the two patrolmen were sus
pended.
The robbery of the store was reported
to Chief Austin's office yesterday morn
ing. and Detectives Cole and Shirley were
detailed to investigate the case. By un
usually good work they caught both me
burglars before 2 o’clock yesterday. Sol
Nunn and Ed Searscy. alias Will Austin,
alias Ed Austin, are behind tire bars or
a charge of stealing six shotguns from
the store.
Eater In the day Detectives Cole and
Shirley entered another charge against
both of them. They say the negroes alsc
stole an overcoat.
The detectives arrested Sol Nunn In
North Birmingham, where he was trying
to dispose of one of the guns. El Searscy
was caught In First avenue between
Eighteenth tjtnd Nineteenth streets.
Nunn, when told that he would have tc
serve longer If he did not produce the
g :s, aided the officers as much as pos
sible to get the guns and the man whe
assisted him in stealing them.
Four of the shotguns have been recov
ered by Officers Shirley and Cole.

LIVE STOCK ASSN. ADJOURN

Passes Resolutions to Support
the Olympian Games In
Chicago.
uracago, December 6.—After a spirited
contest between the friends of Portland,
Oregon, and Kansas City, Mo., the Na
tional Live Stock Association today
closed a successful convention by select
ing the latter city as the place for the
next convention in January. 1903.
The only other business of the after
noon was the adoption of resolutions
pledging its support in the Olympian
games to he held in Chicago in 1904.
The attendance was better than for
any previous day of the meeting, owing
to the fact that the place for the next
convention was to be selected. Pitts
burg, Portland, Ore., Denver and Kansas
C<ty were among the candidates for en
tertaining the cattle men next year. The
new executive committee, W. F. J. Ha-g
erbarth as chairman, reported the nomin
ation of the ctfd officers, as follows:
President, John W. Springer vice pres
ident, F. J. Hagerbartn; second vice
president, John W. Holt; secretary, C. F.
Martin; treasurer, George W. Gouldinjf.
Among the papers on today's pro
gramme was one by G. M. Walden,
which dealt with “Lessons of the Late
Drouth, as Applied to the Live Stock
industry.” He advised ranchmen, while
they were very creditably spending large
sums for pedigreed stock, to improve
their vast herds, to spend more money in
digging wells, buying wind mills, build
ing tanks, pond,etc., for without plenty
of pure water, stock would not thrive.
While they grew despondent and dis
couraged when the hot winds burrfed
the corn and sapped the vigor from the
grass and crops late rains revived their
falling courage, and life took on an
added brightness by comparison. Vast
fields of wheat afforded rich pasturage
for their cattle—scarcity of feed made
higher prices for the Btock they had
to market, and in this and other ways
the general average was struck.
At this time thousands of cattle were
fattening on green wheat fields In Kan
sas, Nebraska and Oklahoma, and next
year the farmers would raise thirty
bushels of wheat to the acre. So
we found the Lord not only would pro
vide, but had given us a country as
prolific in resources as to make all im
pervious to such misfortunes as the late
drouth and to treat with comtempt any
suggestion of a calamity in the live stock
industry, and made all rejoice that we
were American citizens.

DIRT CLEARANCE
T is a good plan for every bather to know
something of the soap he uses. There is a
well-founded objection to using a floor-clean
_ing soap upon the human body. Ivory Soap
is the bather's soap. 4 It costs more than common
soaps, but the difference is in the ingredients and
making. Why not treat yourself with a little respect.
Is not the human skin with its marvellous delicacy
i entitled to pure soap? Ivory Soap—it floats.
