ocean waters from very early periods
of geological time. First " sup

There were not as many 900 votes cast in the primary June last, and over 450 of them were reported from the First ward - Evening News, Nov. IA.
 And this, too, in face fthe fact that the News, in it's issue of April IS, urge the Democrats to register and vote in the fol- lowing language:
 Now, what is the duty of all Democrats in the city of Birmingham2
 There can be but one answer register an d all candidates submit their claims to the Dem ocratic primary.
 The members of the Municipal Democratic Club have no longer any excuse for old ing aloof from the organization, and the News was never more confident of anything than that they will with practical unanimity prove that their protests have not been captious and that they are ready to concede much for party harmony.

Iknow what the democrats are. From Maine to Texas they are ballot box suffers and thieves. Some of you say you don't know this. Everybody knows it's true. know it is that's all the democrats are capable of doing. They wanted to lynch me, but they didn't. The democrats can smell negro mile away and will have nothing to do with him. A man who would buy your vote would hire you to burn house. The democratic record has always been in the way of progress, and the democrats have always favored slavery. The democratic party was fostered by slavery and retained itself in power by bal lot box stufflng. hate the democratic party, you hate it, all good men despise it.. I'll tell you why am in Alabama tonight. The democrats know me and fear me. Every community where there has ever been a lynching democratic sentiment is dominant. The democratic party is party of lynchers. It was democrats who stood over our mothers when the lash was ap- piled, which, with every stroke, cut the hide and caused the blood to flow down their bodies. How can negro be demo- crat when the party has such record as this?-S. II. Doyle, negro, at the Van Hoose meeting.

MUNICIPAL DEMOCRACY,

The News repeats that no such thing as a nized by the Democratic party of Alabama. vote for or against Democratic nominees for State and Federal offices has been estab lisbed as test of a mans Democracy, but a vote in a city election has never been and never will be such test. That settles the contention between the AGE HERALD and the News. The party lash is no good this trip.- Evening News, Nov. IA.

The self-styled reformers didn't like the letter of MT. Mason, chairm m of the dem ocratic executive committee of Jefferson county. They are very much afraid Mr. Mason will hurt himself. Gentlemen, you need not expect man like Chairman Ma son 10 run to cover when the democratic party is battling with the foe. Mir. Mason is not made of such stuff. No, he sounds the bugle call to democratic hosts and urges them on to victory.

If the sentiments of Moseley aud the negroes were not their senlim cuts, why did they pay for the wig wan? Simply for the pleasure of paying out money, we suppose.

I believe it the duty of the negroes to vote for VanHoose. The democrats can [ beat VanHoose. The Jeffersonians, the populists, the "reformers'' (formerly democras) and the republicans are all for him. The republican party is not dead in Birmingham, in Jefferson county, nor in the Ninth district, and by the aid of their allies under the leadership of VanHoose the republ will yet be able to redeem this Magic City.-Dr Moseiey at the Van Hoose meeting.
Birmingham age-herald., 1894-11-27

Mr. Roden's only apology to the white people for the utteraaces or the negroes at the wigwam is that he did not know what the negroes were going 10 say.

AN UNRECOGNIzED DEMOCRACY

A NOVEL OCCUPATION.
Boarding Out Bills So That EmpIoyei
 May Build Up Business.


 May Build UP Business.
 Wild, weird and terrible to con- template are the ways in which many men are compelled to earn their daily bread by the conditions of this com plex civilization of the close of the nineteenth century. One occupation has been called to my attention, and feel justified in demanding sympa- thy for those forced to adoptit. There are men, aye, and delicate, refined womeA1-who earn their hv- ing by boarding round, who are hired by their employers 70 ''eat out" accounts held by them against res ta1rants and keepers of boarding houses.
 Jones, for instance, is an agent for the sale of an automatic piano. an article of furniture that can be readi- ly sold to proprietors of saloons and to ladies who desire. to attract board CTS by providing in their parlors home comforts of musical nature, if price and terms of payment are made sat isfactory. But competition is very keen in this line, and much ingenuity must be exercised if any one agents sales are to be at all numerous. Jones has brilliant idea. He discharges his assistant and hires a new clerk at a small salary. with the understand ing that his board will be furnished him by his employer and its value deducted from his salary as cash.
 This arrangement effected, Jones is in position to say to a possible customer, restauTateur or boarding house keeper: My dear sir tor mad ann, 1 am so anxious that this mag nificent instrument shall be placed in these palatlal premises that l will make you an offer that you cannot possibly refuse. You need not pay one cent in cash. You keep res taurant tor boarding house.. Ihave clerk in whom l am interested. a stranger in the city, who has just asked me to advise him where he can find reasonable and satisfactory board. You take the piano, and will send mypolerk to board with you. You can send his board bills to me, and will deduct the amount from hls salary and credit it on your ac- count. Thus you will soon have paid the bill without feeling it in the least, will own this magnificent instrument and will gain a steady boarder, for after the bill is paid my clerk will naturally be more than satisfied to remain here, and he is a most esti- mable and steady young man, with whom you will be delighted"
 The sale is of course effected. There IS no hagghng about the price of board. So long as the weekly bill does not more than equal the clerks weekly wage its amount is a matter of no possible consequence to Jones. The piano is delivered, and in course of time the clerk arrives to ''eat out" the bill. It Is needless to say that he does not remaln after the account is settled. By that time another ac- count is ready to be boarded out" !" Rochester Democrat.

During the course of the general election in 1874, when the banner un- furled by the then MT. Disraeh was instrumental in gaining many seats for the Conservatives, an eloquent lecturer on surgery happened to have for his theme the treatment of dis eases of the joints, during which he referred to the advances which had been made in the results by the in- troduction of the principle of con se-vative surgery.
 Doubtless he found himself unable to dissoclate the term conservative" from the political events which were then absorbing the attention of the whole country, and it seemed, there fore, quite natural that he should de- scribe the principle, reintroduced by Sir William Ferguson, as due to a conservative reaction" But the mention of these two words had an electric effect upon his audience. For five minutes at least the walls of the somber anatomical theater resound- ed again and again with the cheers of the enthusiastic students.
 Utter amazement was depicted upon the mobile features of the lec- turer at the tu1nult which he had thus unwitungly raised. He paused, made a vain effort to recommence his discourse, raised his hand depre- csstingly and at length began to show signs of displeasure. But all to no purpose; the students determined to have their cheer, and they had it. When silence was restored, he saga ciousIy remarked, Well, gentlemen, upon this occasion I apprehend that you will not require me to discuss the question of the radical cure"-a happy sally which was fully appreci- ated.-Nineteenth Century.
