 IN noting the death of an old citizen, Alouzo Bingham, the Tuskaloosa Times says: ''He died at his home on the street leading to the river.'' Is it possible that old and prominent highway between Tus- kaloosa and Northport hasn't been named yet? aJ
 Col. LON LIVINGSTON was coming to Alabama to make some speeches for the Democratic ticket, but a candidate for Con- gress turned up in his district and he is going to stay at home. It might help your own race, Colonel, to come over and par ticipate in our victory.
 THE State Bar Association meets at Montgomery on July 10, at the capitoli and on the next day at Jackson's lake. The feature of the meeting will be the ad- dress of Hon. T. J. Semmes of Louisiana on "The Influence of the Civil on the Com, mon Law.' 8t
 THE provisional government of Hawaii is no more. The people have adopted a constitution and gone to doing business as republic. Let us hope they will make a better out at it than some of the Republics of Central and South America whose popu- latons are mixed.
 THE Debs boycott of the Pullman Com pany has brought us to the danger line. After long struggle we are about to see central government called in as the only power strong enough to protect one portion of the people of a State from the other DOT. tion.
 THE attention of the Montgomery Jour- nal is called to the fact that the most hope-< ful road to fair elections in Alabama is to stand stoutly by the Sayre law and improve it as experience may suggest. Empty dec- lamation affects nothing.
 LABOR is much more interested than cap- ital in preserving the Democratic law of local government. Capital wants the very strongest possible central govern ment. The Debs boycott is hastening the day of the Presidents supreme power.
 ILLINOIS Democrats have way of bring ing ex-Republican politicians to the front. Franklin McVeagh, Senator Palmer and Secretary Gresham are all reformed Re- publicans. We don't altogether like that method of rum ming party politics.
 CARLISLE says history is distilled news- papers. Bacon says "history makes men wise.' Ergo: the wise man reads the newspapers. Sequitur: the man who reads the newspapers becomes wise.
 
 HE saddest thing in connection with the great railroad strike is the rotting ing shipment. That is a direct blow at the rights Of negro citizenship. THE new constitution of Hawaii pre- scribes tha. Congress shall not remain in session more than sixty days. It takes our Congress longer than that to pass Lhe ap- propriation bills.
 WHENEVER Mir. Cleveland's name is mentioned in q crowd it is welcomed with applause. Even people who do not agree with him on some subjects grow enthusi- astic over him.
 IF Wall street was so all-powerful witt, President Cleveland and really so much desires the income tax defeated, " hy does Mr. Cleveland champion that taxi WHAT the sensible people of Alabarna want is to see the Sayre election law given fair, square trial on it's merits. The Jef. fersonians denounce It in advance. CHAIRMAN GOODWIN continues to advo- cate the unperverted Australian ballot sys- tenn. He wants no man to vote who ca1,It fix his own ticket. ai POLITICAL sermons are bad things any how and hard to explain away. Sim Jbues succeeds because he doesn' { ever try to ex- plain. fc DON CAMERON as an aspirant to the | Presidency is joke. He doesn't make q | fifth rate Senator.
 IN the "language of fowers' we are told | that the seHtimentai significance of oats is 'music."
 | BUTLER and TilImau appeal to the monkey and goat element in human na- l ture.
