Alabama Politics.

The political situation in Alabama is
just now attracting good deal of atten-
tion, not because it has greatly changed
from what it has been for the last year or
two, but because of the threats of the
Kolbites that they intend to carry the state
in the next state election even if they have
to resort to a shot gun policy If they
Should resort to any such policy they
would not find it an easy matter to make
1t a success. The democrats are not
easily inundated, and if they were com
PEELED to defend their rights by unusual
means they would do so with the same
determination and courage that have
given them the victory in past cam
paigns
They know now what Mr.. Kolb's pur-
pose is, and they recognize the fact that
he no longer has any ground for calling
himself democrat. He is supported by
populists, republicans and Kolbites, and
his platform is one intended to satisfy all
of those political factions. His real plat
form is rule or ruin" Those who are
supporting him include all the dema-
goEues and political cranks in
the state, ana if ne should sue
succeed in getting himself elected
governor he would be controlled by them.
And thenthere would be a very unhappy
condition of affairs in Alabama. The
state would go backward instead of for
ward, and capital and Immigration would
avoid it.
koIb's supporters are noisy a~d boast
ful. They are not nearly so strong in num-
bers as they pretend to be- The great
silent vote, that is made up of those who
have something at stake, and who seldom
figure at political gatherings, but who do
great deal of thinking, is against him.
That vote will make its influence felt on
election day. Still, the campaign prom
ises to be one full of bitterness and it NAV
be marked in some localities by lawless-
ness.
The democrats, however, are ready to
meet whatever phase of the campaign
that may present itself They prefer
peace, and will urge the use of only peace
full means in the campaign. but they will
not Shrink from any duty they may be
called on to perform to protect their
rights.
Many of the white men, who have here
tofore supported Mr.. Kolb, will with
draw from mis- standard, because they
cannot afford to have their interests
jeopardized by permitting the state to
pass to the control Of such men as he has
gathered about him.
The political situation in Alabama calls
for hearty and united action on the part
of the democrats, but it should cause no
alarm in the democratic ranks.

a Csc for Inveatigation.

The case of Sylvester Rhodes is one
that calls for very careful and thor
ough investigation Our information is
that while on the way from the county
jail of this county, to the Jail
in Tatnall county, in the charge of
deputy sherif1s, he was taken from the
officers and shot to death. The exact
circumstances of the lyqching are not
known here.
Rhodes was charged with the crime OF
murder, and there does not seem to be
any doubt that he was guilty. Never
theless, he was entitled to trial TWAS
the duty of the state to see that he had a
fair trial. 1t is now the duty of the
state to find out why he
was not permitted to have a
trial, and fair one If he was guilty as
it is generally believed he was, he would
have suffered the penalty for his crime.
The governor is on record against lynch
ings He understands the bad effect of
them upon the good name of the state and
their tendency to bring the courts into
disrepute. In this case of Rhodes, there
fore, it is probable that he will adopt en-
ergetic measures to discover the lynchers
and have them dealt with in accordance
with the law.
Lynchings do not check crime. They
are expressions OF a desire for vengeance.
One lawless act does not Justify another
lawless act. Only by making the law
feared and respected can crimes be pre-
vented. The way to make the law feared
is to uphold it ana enforce it promptly.
When human life is to be taken let Justice
give the order. In no other way can a
feeling that human life is sacred be in
snired

are required to perform each a certain
amount of labor daily. If any prisoner
performs more than his task he is paid
for 1t. When a prisoner has served his
sentence out, whatever sum may be stand

paid to him in cash; thus ne has a little
