FOR DEMOCRACY AND MORGAN.

MIR. G. ". ToMLIN, AN ALLIANCEMAN,
 DOING GRAND WORK FOR TEE PARTY. To he Age Herald:
 MORRIS, July 21.-Plesse publish in your columns the particular points of a speech delivered to the people four miles west of Morris, in this county, at Il o'clock today by c. w. Tomlin. We are all farmers ex- cept few miners, and most of us mem ber5 of the alliance.
 1. MT. Tomlin opened his speech by say ing that he had come to defend pure demec- racy, and to see if the people are willing to drop off prejudice and vote according to reason and common sense on the principles of democracy.
 2. He explained the administration of John T. Morgan in brief way showing that Morgan was friend to the laboring man and that he always stood with the masses of the people, and any candidate, he said, wishing to represent the people in this county in the next general assembly will have to pledge himself to John T. Morgan. He showed that the democrats were in- structed to vote for Morgan for United States senator, and that the Jefferson1anS were against him.
 3. MT. Tomliu said that the farmers and the Farmers alliance and every good law abiding man in the state recommended Gov. Thomas G. Jones for defending the county of Jefferson by bringing the troops, thereby saving the city of Birmingham from destruction at the hands of the law less.
 1. Mir. Tomlin spoke of Morgan's, Pugh's and Denson s administrations, and asks us to look to the election of the sena- tor by the next legislature of Alabama who will have great power in our govern ment. He said there was but one way to effect this end, and that was by electing six democrats to the legislature; that the nominees on the Kolb ticket were against Morgan and the result in Jefferson county would determine whether John T. Morgan was to be returned to the senate or some inferior, unfit person would take his hon. ored seat.
 5. The entire people of this place adopt the speech and recommend the speaker to the people of this county.

sT1LL MORE HEINoUs CRIME.

The murder of Deputies Cole and Smith Coalburg yesterday afternoon adds another page to the history of crimes recently per petrated in this vicinity and marks the ne- cessity for still greater vigilance and ac- tivity on the part of officials and the pub lie. Here were men murdered while in the faithful discharge of duty to their State. Young men who were obeying or- ders in seeking to bring to trial parties charged with crime. Men who without fear were making an effort to restore peace and order to a community, which for so many weeks has been suffering at the hands of meddlesome idlers, robbers and assassns.
 At this writing full particulars of the crime, which will be published in another column of the AGE HERALD, are not be- fore us, but enough is known to stamp the perpetrators as dastardly towards, who de- serve the speediest and most severe pun ishment the law can inf1ct. It is earnestly hoped that before this paper goes to press the criminals will be captured and safely confined until the law can deal with them in accordance with the darkness of the deed.
 Thus we see day after day results of this most unholy strife. Those who are re- sponsibe for it's continuance must bear the brunt of these murderous deeds and the condemnation of community which has suffered almost beyond endurance. There is now no room to criticise the action of Governor Jones or any other official in resorting to every available means to up- hold law and order, even though 1t should financially bankrupt the State. These crimes should be suppressed, these crimi- nals brought before the bar of justice and firmly dealt with, if it requires the services of every able bodied man in Alabama, be he soldier or civilian. This is no time for idle criticism, no time for utterances of sympathy with devilish idlers, no time for business men to stand still with closed lips for fear of the loss of dollar, but time for men of Alabama to be up and doing in defense of the honor of their State and for the protection of the lives of their fellow citizens.

and ought to be voted for regardless of pol itics.n That's right. The proposition sim ply is that the people of Birmingham should be allowed the privilege of taxing them selves to an amount sufficient to pay the city's current expenses and meet the inter. est on her bonded indebtedness. The pres ent constitutional limit of 50 cents on the $100 is insufficient.
 The AGE HERALD is gratified to learn that the committee on legislation of the Commercial Club has taken this matter in hand, and is now making an investigation as to the income and expenditures of the city, thus seeking to learn the necessities of Birmingham. They will readily dis cover that buckle and tongue do not meet under the present assessment. Much talk has been indulged in by some who oppose the measure on account of an alleged ex- travagance on the part of city administra- tions now and heretofore. This is no argu- ment against the amendment, even if it be true, for the city has been wonderfully im- proved within short time. These inn provements are here. They belong to the people, and must be sustained and pro- tected.
 A retrograde spirit may offer some objec- tion to the mere right of taxation, but the broad gauge citizen, who has the welfare of Birmingham at heart, who has confi- dence in the future growth and greatness of Birmingham, will, if he fully under stands the situation, rally to the support of the amendment. The management of the governmental affairs of the city can easily be controlled by the people if they will only take the time to look after them.
 failure to carry the Birmingham tax amendment will endanger the credit and general welfare of the city.

THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The democracy of Alabama, in conven- tion assembled, reaffirm the principles of the democratic party as declared iu the platform of QUE 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 be 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 1ndorse 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 unselfish de- voton to 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.
 We earnestly urge upon our senators and represe entatives in congress the speedy re- form of the tariff and the speedy repeal of inc 10 per cent tax on the issue of state banks.
 We heartily commend and indorse the present administration of the state govern ment, headed by Governor Thomas G. 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 AIabamaa continuance of the good government of our state affairs insugurated by the election of George $. 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 a large majority of the states of this union, without regard to party, and intended to obtain at the ballot box full and free ex- pression of the popular will. We believe in giving it fair trial, and shouldit it fail to accomplish the end which it WAS intended to effect, we pledge ourselves to make such changes and alterations therein as may be necessary to effect that end.
 We pledge our party to the maintenance of a system of free public schools and to increase the appropriations for that pur- pose whenever the financial condition of the slate will permit.
 The parry is pledged to continue it's ef- forts 10 remove all the evils of the present convict system, and to enact all appro- priate legislation to prevent it's working injustice to any class of our people.
 We extend a cordial invitation 10 all voters of Alabama, who believe in the principles of democracy and are in favor of the maintenance of good government, 10 unite with us in the election of the ticket nominated by this convention.

HIGHEST HONORS GIVEN

TO DIR. PRICES AT THE WORLDS FAIR Chicago Tribune.
 For leaveniug power, keeping qualities, purity and general excellence, the World s fair jury decided that Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder had no equal. On each of it's claims it was awarded q first prize or a diploma. All the baking powders entered for prizes were subjected to a most ex- haustive examination, and the jury was the best equipped to make the decision of any ever got togetber. Their verdict was supported by the testimony of Dr. H. w.. Wiley, chief chemist of the United States department of agriculture at Washington. Dr. Wiley is an expert on food products, and the highest authority on such matters in America. This verdict settles long de- bated question as to which among the many baking powders is the best.

Using Plowshare For Church Bell.

In west Jacksonville is a small colored church. The church is an old edifice, and its congregation has grown steadily until only one-half of it can be accommodated at ono tine The church has no bell to call the pious people to worship, but it has something that answers the same purpose
 About the time for the brothers and sis ters to assemble q small boy steps outside the door with big plowshare dangling by string In the other hand IS a railroad spike. Every 10 seconds or so he strikes the plowshare with the spike and keeps it up for about 10 minutes, when he gives variation in series of sharp raps to imi- tate the tolling of bell
 The imitation is first rate, and the sound is not at all unmusical and calls the peo- pic to the church just as effectually as if tho best bell in tho world hung in the stccplo.-Florida Times Union.

THE DAY OF BATTLE.

One of the epoch making days in Ameri- can history was the 9th day of August. 17S0. On that day was fought the battle of Hanging Rock, and so important to the patriots was the result of that battle that the event is set down in the calendar as one of the most momentous in American his tory. The brave Americans under Sumter met and defeated the British under Brown. It was one of the best fought battles of the Revolution, and was won by the Amefi.l cans only after deeds of daring and prodi- gies of valor. b
 On the 9th day of August, 1894, IA years after the battle of Hanging Rock, will be fought on the soil of Alabama another bat tie involving consequences no less monnen- tous than that day of Revolutionary fame. It will be battle of ballots, not of bayo. nets. But upon the issue hangs the fate of the commonwealth of Alabama. The patriots of the Revolution gave all they held most dear to save their country from the enemy, and we very much mistake the temper of the Democrats of Alabama if they are not moved by the same patriotic i'm. pulse in the coming crisis. The 9th dayot August, 1894, will go down in history with the 9th day of August, 1780, as equally il- illustrative of American love of country, good government and protection to home.
