TO OUR POET LAUREATE, SAMUEL
 MINTURN PECK.

For the Ago-Herald: Far away now O CT the oceans bright pillows, Light zeph yrs have famed your fair fame. With the devotees lowing before your bright
 shrine
 Pray add and remember my name. The rhythmical flow of your musical songs Are pulsing with sweet, tender strains, And e'er and anon throbs g low minor tone, Like far distant echo of pains. Like light fairy footsteps just kissed by the dew, In copsewood and valley and fen, As they dance in the dingle to your melody
 and jingle,
 Interspersed with love songs from wren. White abuliton bells ring whilst your praises
 sing,
 Low they bow to each other and say Yes, we heard it just nowI Laurel wreaths
 crown his brow, "Chime ye bells" when ho passes this way. May your pathway grow brighter, your muse
 guide and watch you, O CT your slumbers may angels keep guard; May your fair name be written in the white
 book in Heaven, Divine songster, poet genius, bright bard.

DIR. R. B. HEADDEN.
A Most Noted Divine, at the First Baptist Church-Preaching
 Every Day and Night.

The ten days meetings started at the First Baptist church last Wednesday night arc meeting with fine results. There have been several conversions and accessions to the church already. Dr. Gray is assisted in the meetings by Dr. R. B. Headden of Rome, Ga., one of the noted preachers in the Baptist ministry. Dr. Headden is an orator, and bis sermons are powerful, yet very tender. The services today will be at the usual hours, Il Q. m. and 7:30 D. m. Tomorrow and every day until the meeting is closed services will be held at 8 o'clock and 7:30 p. m. The afternoon services is designed especially for ladies and children. The night services will begin at 7:30 and last about an hour. The singing will be led by large chorus choir. Everybody is most earnestly invited to attend these meetings, and bring their unconverted friends and relatives with them. The ordi- nance of baptism will be administered at the close of the service tonight.

EX- CONNECTS WILL NOT BE PERMIT.
 TED TO VOTE.

MT. B. A. Thompson. chairman of the congressional campaign committee, several weeks ago selected certain members of his committee who were we'll posted on the ex-convicts, to go over the registration lists of the birmingham, Bessemer. Pratt convcts were liable to undertake to vote, and put cross m ,rk opposite to the names of all men who have served term in the Alabama penitentiary. In addition to this precaution he will have at each of these polling places men who are familiar with the faces of all ex-convicts. so that those who have registered under an assumed name will be spotted and challenged ace cording to law, as 1t is well known that Q large number of ex-convicts have registered under another name to that which they bore while serving out their terms.

HER HEART IS TRUE.

Her eyes are not as bright, perchance, As other eyes of blue; Her hair hath not a golden light, Nor cheeks rosy hue, But, then, she hath treasure yet That's far beyond all eyes of jet Or even blueish tint coquette- Her heart is true. She hath 10 jewels to adorn Her simple gown of blue; She hath no royal laces on Her gown of simple hue. She wears rosebud in her hair, Doth my dainty debonnaire. And they love her every where Her heart is trne. Perhaps you think she doesn't shine, When in the may dance, With other faces more divine And smiles of debutants. This by no means Is the case, Her loving heart shines through her face And all forget the commonplace Her heart is true.

LET no laboring man forget that under Mckinleyism many of the furnaces of this eistrict went out of blast,. the workshops and foundries were closed, house building and city Improvements were suspended, wages reduced and hundreds of honest, in1 dustrious workmen were thrown out of employment and their wives and children deprived of many of the necessares of life. Let them remember that, under the new Democratic tariff law, business has been wonderfully revived; they are again at work at fair wages, and the cost of living has been reduced greatly. Let them con- slider these things and then vote on Tues day according to the dictates of self interest and common sense for Underwood, Demo- cratic success, lower taxation and better living

THE Republican afternoon organ seeks to reflect upon the political loyalty of honored citizens by asking as to .'the full measure of sympathy such Democrats as G. W. Hewitt, George M. Morrow, M. T.

BEFORE the Mckinley bill became law, and in anticipation of it's passage, the op- orators of the great manufacturing plants began to systematically reduce wages, throw their men out of employment and invite strikes. In less than two months after the passage of the new Democratic tariff law there has been great industrial and business revival in all parts of the Union; hundreds of thousands of working men heretofore idle under high tariff have gone back to work, and in very many instances wages have been advanced.

more sharply accentuated than In this most favored district. It Is no less fact that the best thought and intelligence of the nation ascribe these conditions almost entirely to the workings of pernicious tariff and revenue system, all of which is the product of Republican legislation and administration. It is beyond dispute that so soon as Democratic legislation was passed andsput into operation all business and industrial concerns began to revive and be restored to their normal state. h each case it is fair and just to assume that effect followed cause. The natural equi- librum and course of trads had been dis turbed and diverted by unwise intermed- ding with the natural laws of business and commerce, and confusion and disaster in- evitably followed. As soon as possible after it got control of theIaw making power the Democratic party passed revenue and tnan- cial measures that restored, as far as prac- ticable, the natural order and course of business, and as the necessary result we find great industrial and commercial re- vival in all branches of trade throughout the length and breadth of the land. with the promise and assurance of long con- tinued prosperity if the workings of those equitable and just laws are not interfered with or obstructed. Their operation and effect have already been more satisfactory than their authors could reas onably antici- pate. That the real business interests of the country arc satisfied with them IS shown in the general resumption of indus trial enterprise and business activity throughout the country. The people are pleased because their demands of two years ago have been respected and gratiied. The Democratic party is more pleased be- cause it has redeemed it's pledges to the business interests and people, and sees the \ripening harvests of its toll and struggles in their behalf, and being content it is un- willing to further agitate or disturb the Happy conditions rapidly evolving from it's labors. By the Democratic party there will be 10 further general disturbance of the \eriff. There will be changes only where hanges can be well and profitably made in ehalf of tho people and business interests

THE laboring men and wage earners of this district will show whether they want low taxes, steady employment and fair compensation for their labor, or high taxation, little work and poor wage, by the way they vote on next Tuesday. If they desire the former they will vote and work for Underwood; if the latter, they will support Aldrich and his negro- white Radi- cal party.

IF Skaggs' speech at O. Brien's on Friday night is sample of the political pabulum upon which he had been feeding his audi ; ences in this campaign, it is not surprising

THE Republican afternoon organ of Tru- man H. Aldrich assumes that he indorses the doctrineo of the National Republican Minneapolis platform Of 1892, which the Tribune says ''committed all party ser. wants to stand for a tariff which would cover the difference in foreign countries and in the United States.' Now the Tribune knows, if 1t knows anything, that the new tariff law more than covers this difference, and yet wants Aldrich elected to aid in the repeal of that law and the re-enactment of the Mckinley tariff, which robbed the laboring men and wage earners of hundreds of millions of dollars during it's atrocious existence.

ORATOR SKAGGS more than di scredited MT. Aldrich's good sense and business rep utation in claiming that he came South to develop the country, and that all, or most, of the prosperity of this mineral region is due to his efforts. MT. Aldrich has never been classed as philanthropist nor as an invalid. He has not been here and away from his home and family in Ohio for twenty odd years from a sense of devotion to the people nor for the purpose of recu- perating his shattered health. Let the truth be told. While MT. Aldrich was developing Alabama, he was being largely developed and pro6ted himself; and if balance sheet of the dealings could be struck it would disclose that Truman H. Aldrich owes vastly more to Alabama than Alabama does to Truman H. Aldrich.

THE foundation stone of Major McKin- ley's protection theory is that the foreigner pays the tax. In making this argument he admits that the tariff is tax. Now he says the fact that the price of wool went up as soon as wool was made free proves that the tariff is not a tax. Speaker Crisp overthrow this fallacy of the majors and proved con- clnsively that the consumer pays the tax.

THERE are hundreds of laboring men in Birmingham now busy and making good wages who under the Mckinley tariff were idle for want of work and suffering for want of the necessaries of life.

Every one of these laboring men owe it to themselves and their fam- lilies to vote and work for Democratic tri- umph on Tuesday. Vote for Underwood.
 IT is the duty of every laboring man and wage -earner, who has wife and children to take care of, to vote for the principles and candidate of that party that reduces the cost of the necessaries of life, lifts as far as possible from his shoulders the burdens of taxation, keeps the wheels of industry and commerce in motion, and affords him op- portunity to earn good wages. The Demo- cratic party does this. Vote and work for Underwood's election.-

a Factor For Puritication.

The Hoboken N. j. News publishes
an interview with Mr.. Minturn regard
ing the recent application of Miss Mary
Phillebrook for admission to the bar of
that state. Mr.. Minturn is corporation
attorney and member of the firm with
whom Miss Phillebrook has studied law
He is of opinion that the legal fraternity
is favorable to women attorneys, and
that if the supreme court should decide
that this young lady cannot be admitted
to examination for admission to the bar
the legislature will pass a law to admit
women, and that the bill will be drawn
and pressed to passage by lawyers. Mr..
AIinturn holds, further, that all profess
sions and honorable occupations, includ-
ing public Office, should be open to wom-
en- and that they should be allowed to
vote. He thinks American politics will
be cleaner when mothers, wives and sis.
ters carry the influences of home to the
ballot box.
