Two years hence there will be elected in Jefferson county sheriff, a coroner, tax collector, clerk of the circuit court, tax assessor, four commissioners, county treasurer, seven members of the general assembly (sjx of them being members of the house and one a senator), perhaps a county superintendent of education, two justices of the peace in each precinct and one constable in each precinct. At the election in August, at which the above named officers are voted for, there will also be voted for a governor, commissioner of agriculture, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer, auditor and state superin- tendent of education. la November fol- man from this (the Ninth) congressional district and eleven presidential electors. In December following the legislature elected in August will elect United States senator to succeed Senator Pugh. Should the repub blicans, who have come so close to carrying Jefferson county, succeed in elect
 ing their nominees in August the following would result: They would have the sheriff and clerk of the circuit court, who, with the democratic probate judge, would select the inspectors of election for the November election, and the sheriff would have abso- lutely the appointment of the deputy sher- ifs who would officiate at the polls in No-s vember. Jefferson's seven votes in the joint session of the general ssembly, if taken from the democratic column and added to the republican, would make change of fourteen votes. The democrats soon forgotten the anxious cry that came from all over the state for the success of the legislative ticket Tn the last August election. The democratic party is fighting for its life in this state. These seven votes might send a republican tional senste, Again 2 detection in this county might, and probably would, defeat the democfAtic nominee for congress.

ATTORNEY GENERAL OLNEY decided that the word "municipalities" applied to counties as well as cities. The State in it's quarantine regulations looks after cities as well as counties. The Sayre election law applies to cities as we'll as to the State. The City Democratic Executive Committee was appointed by the County Democratic Executive Committed. The connection between city. county and State politics is close and binding. It is just as dangerous to have the city under Repu blican rule as 1t is to have the State.

4 SYMPHONY

In musical circles symphony is known as a composition in which 8 certain chord runs through the whole piece, and around which all other chords cling. Democracy is a symphony. A certain chord runs through the entire composition. If the chord is broken at any point the symphony is shattered. The chord begins in the family circle, and extends up through pre- cinct, city, county. State and national politics. In his speech before the caucus, in accepting the nomination, Senator Mor- gan very eloquently illustrated this truth:
 So that the November election brought for ward the Republican party no longer standing in Democratic colors, longer wearing the mask of Democracy with which to deceive the people. Tn that election party came forth as a Republican party, and the triumph that We achieved over that party in November was triumph over Republicans. Now in the light Of that situation we know what it is necessary 10 q" hereafter in order to save the State from Republican rule. We know what that rule has been in Alabama heretofore. We know the dangers of that situation. We know how those dangers environ, surround and enter into every single relation of life, commencing with the hearthstone, and winding up with the Supreme Court of the State. We know that there is no safety to the people with that power in the hands of the Republican party. It seems to me that the policy of the Dem cratic party of Alabama ought to be first ot all to preserve in it's integrity the old creed of the party to which we have resorted at all times with security and with satisf action. We ought to return to the first principles. We ought to have no mixture of ideas in our creed; no new thoughts which are strange to the people Of the United States. The De mo- cratic party ought. to be pure in it's princi- ples, pure in it's actions, thorough in it's pro- gress and triumphant in it's victories.

Jnpanese HairdressinE.

One of the joys of the Japanese
wontans life. which Sir Edwin Arnold
has failed to dwell upon, is her hair
dressing. although he mentions the re-
suit admirngly. The ordinary Japanese
womaak has her hair dressed twice a
week. First the assistant hairdresser
comes and oils the locks with camellia
or seaasum oil; then the principal ar
rives and spends nearly an hour in piling
up her hair so that 1t will indicate the
caste and age of the woman and whether
she is maid. wife or widow" For all
that is expressed by the arrangement OF
the locks IN Japan. The women sleep
upon neck blocks. carefully followed out
so that the hair may remain undisturbed
all night. For ladies OF high degree
these blocks are beautifully lacquered
and decorated. They generally have
little drawer into which the superfiuous
ornaments can be put at night.

THE GREAT sAENGERFEsT.

The torchlight parade OF the attend
ants on the National Saengerfest last
night was perfect success, both as to
numbers, good marching and orderly be-
havior. 1t was a fine spectacle to see
ten thousand solid German citizens In
line. and 1t was gratifying to mark the
general disposition OF the spectators
along the whole line OF march. and in
deed far beyond the line. to do honor
to the occasion. The decorations were
tasteful and general and many OF the
streets looked like avenues Of futterlng
fiags. which were strung from the roofs
OF houses and stores to the sidewalks.
The police did efficient service and the
best OF order was preserved throughout
the line OF parade.
Gov Flower and Mayor Gilroy were
present at the reviewing stand and were
evidently well pleased with the sight.
President Cleveland could not attend,
owing to the pressure OF public business.
1t was said. and probably owing to the
time recently devoted to fishing and
other excursions. But he sent his ex-
cuses through his private secretary,
Mr.. Thurber.
