TRIMS TO SUBSCRIBERS.
SATURDAY. MAY 5, 1894.
The Hundley School Amend


Local taxation is now restricted by
Section 2, Article XI of the constitution
which reads:
mo power to levy taxes shall be DEL
eOated to individuals or private corpora
tions."
This is proposed to be amended to
read:
mo power to levy taxes shall be del
epsted to individuals or private corpora
tione; Provided, that the General Assem>
bly, may confer upon the trustees OF the
school districts in this State power to
lew within their districts special tax
OF not more than IA OF per centum
to be applied exclusively to maintaining
the public schools in the districts IN
which said tax is levied; Provided that
the money collected from persons OF the
white race may by law be applied ex'
c!usively to the education OF the white
race: and the money collected from per-
sons of the colored race. may by law be
applied exclusively to the education OF
the children of the colored race"
This proposed amendment is to be
voted upon by the people the lst Mon>
day in August, 1894
Under the new election law the SUBJ
stence of this amendment will be print
cd on the official ballot accompanied by
the Vords, "Yes" and "No." By each
word is left q blank square. 1t the vot>
or makes cross mark by "yes" he votes
for the amendment. He votes against
it by making the cross mark by mo. :
If he makes no mark at all it counts the
same az q vote aeainst it, as the amend
mept must receive an affirmative major
itv Of all the votes cast for members OF
the legislature.
By the provisions of this amendment
if it becomes law, the legislature may
authorize the school trustees OF any
township to levy q tax not exceeding 20
cents on the 81 90.
The friends of the measure assure US
that it's adoption will not interfere with
the appropriations already made by the
State for the schools, which they argue
are at standstill, the State not increas-
ing its appropriations as fast as the pop
ulation increases.
The Objectionable feature ofthe meas
ure is the clause discriminating between
white and colored citizens in the appro-
priation of the fund raised by the spe-
cial tax.
The precedent is dangerous, hazard
GUS. If this may be done; we may well
ask where will it end2 And why not
legis' ate and engraft in the constitution
of the State class legislation designating
the Jew, the German or the Irishman
and providing that citizens OF these ma
tionalities shall derive no benefit from
the general taxation, except SO far as the
prorata paid by themselves?
Gov. Jones, in his veto of the bill, as
passed by the legislature, points out
that this feature was not only unconsti-
tutional but fraught with evil to the
public.

Reunion Of the Confederate
Soldiers-Miners Strike-Hun-

dley School Amendment.
Editor Gazette:
Last week Birmingham surrendered
absolutely to the United Confederate
veterans who met here to celebrate
their fourth reunion. This city was
decorated from center to circumfer-
ence, it was a matter Of imposslbili-
ty to look in any direction without
seeing decorations-even the mules
and dogs were decorated. The
words "Welcome to the .. G.. ""
were seen upon the homes, stores
and hung across the streets. This
city certainly made all visitors feel
at home, and there were more than
500 delegates from other Southern
Sta tes. Among these delegates
were some Of the greatest mel of the
South = men of distinction, generous,
statesmen, soldiers and orators. AS
the various delegations marched up
the streets you could see men who
followed the guards in the civil war
some with one arm, one leg. woun>
ded and bruised with she'll and ball.
and as the canans would fire and the
soldiers would yell it reminded one
of the days of 1S61,5. To see and
hear these men we are forced to con
clude that though the cause be lost
the spirit yet lives. The welcome
addre:s ses of Governor Jones and
Mayor Cox were good and the re-
sponse of General Gordon, of Geor-
gia, eloquent.
Senator Morgan let himself down
with the colored people when he
said in Erswell Hall, Il hope to see
the day when none but Americans,
white men, shall be allowed to cast
ballot"
During the convention at the
Winnie Davis Wigwam the Com.
mercial Club had a meeting in which
speeches were made and resolutions
passed inviting Northern and East>
e1n capitalists to come to Alabama.
Strange that the white people are
trying to get Others to come to our
State and some colored people are
trying to get the Negroes to leave
the State. What is good for the
white man is good for the black
man.
The great talk of the city is the
strike Of the Miners. The coal dig.
gers have struck because of reduc-
ton in wages. This strike has in-
jured Birmingham seriously, for coal
has gone up and quite large mum
Der of public works and furnaces
have shut down. What the out
come will be is a matter Of eonjec-
ture.
At mass meet ting last Tuesday
Dr. Phillips, Superintendent of the
public schools, lectured on the Hun.
dley School Amendment. Speeches
by others were made and all the
speakers favored the amendment
and resolution was passed endors-
ing it. The subject will be discuss.
ed next Tuesday night and l may
have more to say after l read what
the GAZETTE man will say in the

From the San Antonio Express.
The Honduranean coffee is equal
in every respect to the Me Xican
Guatemalan or Costa Rican pro,
duct, and it is we'll known to be Of
a superior quality, commanding a
price in the great marked OF from
20c to 25c per pound. In the Re-
public of Honduras land can be
had in either of three ways-by di-
rect concession from the Govern
ment or municipalities, by pre-
emption under the agricultural law
or by direct purchase from indivId-
uals. In the first two ways the
lands will cost nothing or a NOM
inal price; in the latter, the lands
will cost from So to $40 per acre.
A new plantation of coffee will
commence to produce profit by
the end Of the fourth year after
planting, and after the seventh
year profit of from 100 to 300 per
cent on the capital invested may
be expected. The average cost of
the production of coffee, after the
plantation is we'll started and five
years old, will not exceed u per
pound. The preparation Of the land
for coffee plantation will consist
only of clearing it off we'll and
keeping it clean. The young trees
are to be secured from a nursery,
and cost from $40 to 500 per 1000.
Nurseries of course, are main
tanned on every plantation. The
young trees are planted from II to
Is feet apart, in regular rows, like
an orchard in the Udited States,
and the holes are dug about l foot
square and 10 inches deep.

the second place, it is the sailing
vessels which most often lose their
anchors, and as rule they carry
lighter anchors than steamers
and in the third place most large
vessels,whether steamer or sailing
commonly carry both light and
heavy anchor, and seldom drop
the latterin the harbor or imme-
diately off the coast, using it for
deeper and rougher seas. The fact
that steam vessels lose their an
chors less frequently than sailing
vessels is due to their being able
to use their steam, when necessary,
to check the strain upon the an
Choir chain.
The captured anchor chains often
make substantial addition to the
gain of the fishermen, fetching
about 3c a pound. Sometimes
they are very long and weigh hun
dreds of pounds.
One of the divers of a local
wrecking company makes a busi-
ness of keeping an eye open for
lost anchors while examining or
working around sunken vessels.
He is said to have located several,
and to have made a considerable
sum as the result Of his enterprise.
