the traps were up on fiat along the shores
OF the river, with the turbulent and muddy
water for a background. This had the
effect Of making the shooting very difficult.
There is nothing in connection with trap
shooting that will bother the most

The South Carolina Muddle.

The blacks in South Carroll IA having in
dorsed the Haskell ticket, there is a proba-
bility of pretty lively times in that state on
election day, If it be true, as stated. that
Tillman said the blacks would not be per-
United to vote. The blacks will vote if
they want to, and there will be pleaty of
whites at the polls to see that they have
fair chance to vote and that their votes are
counted.
1t is to be regretted that the straightout
democrats put ticket in the field. Their
action has brought about a deplorable con-
dition OF affairs. And there is not much. If
any, chance for the election of their ticket.
Those Of the blacks who vote for state
Offices will vote the Haskell ticket because
their sympathies are with the Haskeilites.
but the blacks are not organized and not
registered. Comparatively few will take
the trouble to register, ard, hence, the black
vote for the Haskell ticket cannot be very
large.
The bringing of the blacks into the fight
Of the democratic factions, however, will
have the effect of increasing the black vote
for the republican congressional candidates.
and IN one or two of the districts a repub-
lican may be elected. 1t is not good politics
to jeopartiizs the election of a couple OF
democratic candidates for congress for the
mere satisfaction of opposing the Tillman-
ties
The strength OF the Haskellites is, of
course, in the towns. The Tillmauites, who
are mainly farmers, have adopted method
for lessening the opposition to Tillman. They
boycott merchants who are known to bs in
sympathy with the Haskell ticket. But It il
not probable that the boycottiag will be
carried to any great extent. 1t will create
bad feeling. however, and array the to wn
people against the country people. 1t is q
good thing the election is so near at hand.

Fortunate Alabama

The three hundred members Of the British
Iron and Steel Institute who visited Bir-
mingham on Thursday confirmed the
opinion that is entertained by iron and
steel manufacturers Of this country that
iron and steel can be made at that and
other places in the south cheaper than
anywhere else in the world. They
were greatly surprised at the wonder
full development 10 iron manufacturing
which has taken place at Birmingham, and
deeply interested IN what they saw there.
They had heard. Of course, OF Alabams's
almost unlimited resources of iron and coal,
but they were compelled to admit that their
expectations were greatly exceeded.
1t is safe to predict that at no very dis
tant day more iron and steel will be manu-
featured il Alabama than in any other
part of the United States, or in any Euro
pean country. The making of iron and
steel has only just begun there. And the
more clearly the facts become understood
that iron and steel of excellent quality can
be produced there at a less cost than else
where an immense amount of money will De
invested there, and the manufacture of

proportions.
1t would not be at all surprising if some
Of the members of the institute should make
large investments Of money in Birmingham
aud other Alabama towns. They are shrewd
men and are not afraid TO act upon their
judgments. They see that the south is
making astonishing progress and that it is
hardly possible for them TO m AXE mistake
in investing money in any Of the southern
states.
The visit of the members OF the British
Iron and Steel Institute to Birmingham
will stimulate the iron and steel industry at
that place greatly, because their very fiat
tering opinions Of it having been widely
published attention will be more strongly
directed to it than ever before. Birmjng-
hams growth. although it has been phe-
will be much greater in the
next five years than it was in
