week and the first four performances being

they were not enough to thaw the frosts

EDUCATIONAL.

Oakman News: Have you got any chill drep? Well, it matters not whether you have or not, you ought to be interested in the amendment to the constitution so that education can be placed upon higher plane. The Hundley amendment is some- thing we are all in terested in when we think about it right. You see it gives the right to any community or town to levy them- selves for educational purposes. The way the constitution now stands we are de- priyed of that privilege. Some may kick against it because it places more tax on the people. It does not compel any people to pay any more tax unless they want to. It merely leaves the matter in the hands of the people of any place as to whether they are willing to tax themselves or not. The state officials have nothing to do with levying the tax or anything of the kind.
 Tuscumbia Alabamian: The people of Alabama will decide at the August cleo ton whether or not the citizens of any school district in the state shall be allowed to levy special tax for school purposes. In an address before the Educational asso- catior at Blount Springs last week Editor Chappell Cory of the AGE HERALD quoted from the constitutions of all the other states in the union, showing that in all of them counties, towns and districts were given the right 10 levy such a tax, and in many states it is compulsory. We hear good deal of criticism of our public school system, which has been vastly improved in recent years, and we sometimes hear men who pay no tax urging a much heavier rate of taxation for school purposes. In many counties and school districts the peo- pie are not only willing, but anxious to tax themselves to improve their public schools. Why should they be denied this right? There is neither sense nor sentiment in opposing it. If the citizens of any district think they cannot afford to increase their taxes nobody can force them to do it. I
 Troy Messenger: 1t is high time there was special battle strongly pushed in fa- vor of the HundIey amendment. The dem. ocratic party should array itself in favor of the amendment. Every organization In whose power rests the welfare of the peo- pie should lay hold and help 1t through. The amendment is simply this: It confers upon counties, townships or localities the power to levy a special tax of 2h mills for school purposes iu case they choose to do so. If the amendment passes no com munity will be forced to levy such tax, but will have the privilege to do so if the majority favor it. Then, too, the man with the largest amount of wealth pays the most of the tax. Roll up your sleeves and enter the battle in it's favor.
 Pinc Belt News: Every voter in Alabama should vote for the Hundey amendment tG the constitution, which provides for better schools something all our people wany and are clamoring for. |

HE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The democracy of Alabama, in conven- ton assembled, reattirm the principles Of the democrat party as declared in the platform ofour party at Chicago in 1892, and congratulate the country upon the suc- cess of those principles in the triumphant election of Grover Cleveland, who, by his generous treatment of our people, has shown that he is the president of the whole country, knowing no north, no south, no east, no west.
 We recognize the wisdom and patriotism of our president and believe in his fealty to the principles of our party, and indorse his administration of the federal govern ment. While some of us may differ from him in matters of policy, we are agreed in the belief that he is actuated by motives of highest patriotism and by an unselfsh de- votion 10 the highest good of the whole people. While there are differences of opinion among us in matters of detail, we all believe in the free coinage of silver whenever it can be done consistently with the maintenance of a sound and safe cur rency.
 H We earnestly urge upon our senators and represe entatives in congress the speedy re- form of the tariff and the speedy repeal of the 10 per cent tax on the issue of state banks.
 We heartily commend and indorse the present administration of the state govern. nient, heaoed by Governor Thomas c. Jones, who has so wisely and courageously discharged his great trust, and we com mend his impartial and fearless execution of the laws.
 We pledge to the people of Alabama continuance of the good government of our state affairs inaugurated by the election of George s. Houston in 1874.
 The election law enacted at the last ses- sion of our general assembly is in accord ance with the principles upon which are based the laws regulating elections in large majority of the states of this union, without regard to party, and intended to obtain at the ballot box a full and free ex- pression of the popular will. We believe in giving it fair trial, and should it fail to accomplish the end which it was intended to effect, we pledge ourselves to make such changes ard alterations therein as may be necessary to effect that end.
 We pledge our party to the maintenance of system of free public schools and to increase the appropriations fer that pur- pose whenever tue financial condition of ihe state will permit.
 The party is pledged to continue its ef- > forts 10 remove all the evils of the present nxict system, and to enact all appro-
 nnkeeislation to prevent it's working

GOOD ROADS.

Ashvile EglS.
 While we are not in full fellowship wi h the Coxey movement, and are not exactly enrolled on the roster of the army of the commonweal, at the same time we are heartily in favor of some system by which the public roads of the state of Alabama, [, and especially of the county of St. Clair, may be improved.
 he road laws of the state should by all means be changed, and system of taxa ton devised whereby fund could be raised sufficient to put the roads in a condition so that transportation and travel would be a pleasure. It can be done at a small cost to each individual tax payer, who would reap benefit from the enhanced value of prop erty that would far exceed the amount of taxes. Our farmers should aRitate the question of good roads for St. Clair.

WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF? Philadelphia Press.
 Tins railroad strikes of this summer match the period of 1877 with great accuracy. They came four years after the collapse ln 1873 and immediately after the great an thracite coal strike. The present strikes come four years after Baring's failure in 1890 and succeed bituminous coal strike.
 The railroad strikes of1S77 came the year after great exposition had stimulated labor in this state and given the Pennsyl- vania railroad it's biggest year, succeeded by year of depression and of reduction in the railroad force and of railroad wages. The railroad strikes in Chicago are coming under closely similar circumstances, the year after the expenditure of S30, ,000 ,000 had drawn to Chicago an enormous mass of labor, which was left in idleness after it's close, while the railroads ntering in Chi cago are having lean year succeeding good one, though, as in 1876, the railroad receipts of 1893 by no means equal the year before, though better than this year.
 In 1877, also, as now, the general busl- ness of the country had shrunk, idle money was piled up in the banks, a wicked and causeless strike was sprung on the country when there was not work enough to go round and rioting destroyed confidence at the very time when confi- dence abroad and the utmost forbearance between capital and labor was needed If prosperity was to be resumed.
 The depressing tolng aoouG tnls parallel, which runs close enough 10 make it both instructive and startling, is that the strikes of 1877 left the trade, business and produc- tion of the country flat on its back. Prices which were considered pheR oiiie hally tow in 1877 fell still lowef in 1878 and the par tia recovery in the number of failures which had taken place in 1877, as compared with previous years, just as they are less for the last half year, as compared with 1893, rose to terrible proportions in 1878, exceeding all previous records.
 Ia short, the great railroad strikes of July, 1877, which, as now, came four years after the previous panic, "a year after great international exposition and under closely similar conditions as to prices, credits, failures and general business, were sue ceeded by dreary mouths of fdull apathy, of strain to credit which, in 1878, broke more firms than ever before in our history, and ended only in the summer of 1879, two the irst great collapse, which came then in 1873 and fell this time in 1890.

HOW THE AGENTS OF DEBs WORK

HOW THE AGENTS OF DEBS WORK
 New York Times.
 The more thoughtful men in the differ
 ent bro,herhoods have rejected the advances
 made hitherto by the agents of Debs. "The
 methods pursued by these representatives
 are insinuating," said an operating rail-
 road man yesterday. "The agent comes
 along to a locomotive engineer, for in-
 stance, and asks him to join the union,
 saying that the cost is only $1 initiation fee
 and 25 cents a year.
 "Any man can figure for himself the im-
 mense revenue that could be accumulated
 if all the brotherhoods and trades unions
 and Knights of Labor and kindred branches and organ iz ations should enter this union.
 Assume that 1, ,000, 1000 men should pay the
 initiation fee of $1, and MT. Debs at once becomes plutocrat himself, while 20 cents each year from every man would provide fund for him to handle of $250 ,000. The individual who does not stop to think pays his dollar and his annual fee, and a card is given him, showing that he is member. That is all it costs him to sell his personal liberty and to sacrifice with the act the we'll being of his family.
 ''But the agent does not stop here. If the workman says No, don't care to be- long to the organization the representa- tive of Debs pleasantly says: Well, here's a card, anyhow. Take it and pay when you get ready. You will want to be a mem-
 Der by and by, and you might as we'll be- come one now as later.' The name Is en- tered in a memorandum, and that man IS
 marked. If the American Railway union succeeds he is bound to come in or suffer | the consequences. That is all this Debs scheme amounts to, but it's good deal all ] the sameb b
