bility of the city's being compelled by force of pecuniary inability to withhold assist ance from our charitable institutions. In these days of outside public censure of the ''powers that be-" of general dis gruntlement at official movements, it was beautiful to behold the unRuimity with which the public upheld both county and city authorities in their appropriations of public funds for the help of the poor; and now expressions of deep regret can be heard on almost every side that the hand of public charity is about to be withheld from the Charity Hospital and the Mercy Home. It must not be done. No loss will follow generous do- nation to these institutions, which do so much towards alleviating those poor, de- pendent men, women and children, the responsibility of whose care is placed upon us for wise purpose. We believe our city authorities will reconsider their action, and by wise counsel and careful inanciering be able to find a way to continue their appropriation ns for the relief of the poor.

took the stump for the regular ticket, and a power and vigor were brought to bear in favor of the democratic nominees equaled only by the cam paign of 1874.
 So far all the conditions were more ia. vorable to Oates than Jones. Oates, how ever, had to contend with the bitterness towards Cleveland's financial policy aud the rabid censure of his administration by many of our senators and representatives, which put the party at a considerable dis. advantage, and this was heightened by the 'pauic,' which had not relaxed it's hold when the campaign began.
 The writer sees no good to come from belittling the services or strength of either Governor Jones or Governor-elect Oates by drawing comparisons from the two campaigns, and thinks it would be well for '' Democrat" to refrain from such discuss sions. His ouly object in writing this is to point out what he conceives to be an unintentional injustice on your part to Governor Jones, and to correct it in manner which does not detract in the slightest degree from the great strength and merits of Colonel Oates as developed in the last campaign.

THESE times of close economy will result in a more equable adjustment of salaries. Especially in official salaries will there ba a le yelling down. The salary attached to an office should not be so much larger than the salary a man can make in business as to excite his cupidity and cause him to resort to questionable methods to obtain the of. fee. In England many offices have no sal aries attached, and men must pay their own election expenses to win them. This is as far wrong as salary that is too large, for it confines the office- holding class to wealthy men. An officials salary should be sufficient to support him in comfort and remove from him the temptation to use his position for gain. It should also be com mensurate with the salary he could earn in private life.

MANY public speakers fall into the habit of beginning their discourses in a low tone of voice, and so indistinct that they can't be heard except by those immediately around them. Perhaps they think that when they do talk louder in the midst of their discourse it becomes more impressive. But this wrong hypothesis. The atten- tion of the nearer should be caught at the start, for if allowed to wander and become interested in surrounding objects it is very hard to recall it and enchain it. All the best public speakers, and especially those accustomed to addressing large audiences, speak loudly and clearly the very first word they utter and try to say something that will catch the ears of their hearers. MT. Beecher entered his pulpit one hot Sunday morning, and wiping the precipitation from 2 his brow, exclaimed: "It's damn hoti'' His congregation was startled, their atten- tion arrested, and he held it during the sermon. He explained that he heard young man make that remark as he came in the church and followed it up with a sermon on profanity.

No MAN who has ever held public posi- ton in this community stands higher in the estimation of our people than Dr. J. B. Phillips, superintendent of our public schools. A native of Kentucky, he came to Birmingham at time when these schools were in their infancy, weak and struggling for existence. With clear conception of of the needs of the hour, thorough train- ing for the work before him, and by the exercise of spirit of enterprise and in- domitable energy, he brought order out of confusion and has year by year carried on the progressive work of elevating the ef- fciency of the schools, until he has brought them to plane of usefulness and impor- tance, which is attracting the attention of the whole country. Dr. Phillips work is known aud appreciated, not only in Bir- mingham. but throughout the State; and the impress of his work can be seen in the advancement of public education in the South. Such an official deserves every en- couragement at the hands of the people.
