The election of Mr. Oates as gov- ernor of Alabama by a clear majority of 26,018 last week virtually does away with the populist party in that state. By a straight combination with the republican party in Ala- bama, the pcpulist hoped to take the state from the democratic party, and the fight of its life was made to that end. The result, however, is a set back not looked for and one salculated to disband the populist’s party in that state for all time to come. —__—_——. State Auditor Seibert has com- pleted the work of tabulating and apportioning the values of railroad, bridge aud telegraph property as fixed by the state board of equaliza- tion for the taxes of 1894. The total assessed valuation is $70,299,236.17. An increase of $4,902,308.08 over the valuation for 1893, The mileage of railroads assessed by the board in 1893 was 6,167,341 and in 1894, 6,- 217,551, an increase of 50,210 miles. The assessment for Bates county is $818,673.92. it is generally supposed that min- ing is the most hazardous of all pur- suits, but recent statistic go to show that it is really safer than railroad- ing.

Interest Now Centers in Possibility of | Senate Action.—Vest will Push o'clock. If it is refused an appeal will be taken by the defense. New Sugar Schedule. Washington, D. C., Aug. 13.— Under the sugar schedule incorpor- ated in the new bill the protection to the Sugar Refiners’ association, known as the Sugar trust, has been reduced 75 per cent. Last year ua- der the McKinley bill the profits of the sugar refiners was $27,000,000. Raw sugar came in free, but the sugar growers were paid a bounty of 2 cents a pound, amounting last year to $15,000,000, all of which came directly from the pockets of the people. The new schedule places an ad valorem duty of 40 per cent on raw sugars, with L ofa cent on the refined and 1-10th of a cent ad- | ded from countries paying an export lof the surrounding mountains. A Here the party was joined by Mrs. W. E. Walton, and with the excep- tion of Mesdames Boulware, Frizell | and Allen, all climbed Mt. Esther, an ascent of about twelve hun- dred feet, up one of the most pic- turesque and romantic little moun- tain rivulete one can imagine. A splendid view could be obtained The Fight. Washington, D. C., Aug. 14.— Congressional interest is now center- ed in the possibility of Senate action on the four supplementary tariff bills passed by the House last night. It is generally accepted that the Presi- dent will sign the bill. If he does not sign it within the next two or three days be may withhold his sig- nature in order to see what the Sen- ate does with the four free list bills. But it is not believed in any quarter which merits consideration that the President will prevent the tariff bill from beceming a law. If the Senate should now take up the free sugar and barb wire bills and enact them into law the House |eup of happiness would be full to ‘the brim.
