The fight against the fee system
in this state will reach its culmi-
nation this legislature. There is
such an opposition to 1t, justified
or otherwise, that 1t will not be
safe to resist the popular demand
for Its abolition. There is no good
reason why all the salaries Of the
officers of the state should not be
paid by the state, and all the rev.
enues Of the state collected into
the treasury of the state. And in
asmuch as the people are demand
ina that this be done 1T will be wise
for the present Legislature to give
heed to their wishes. The people
are right in general. They may
be little slow to crystalize their
minds upon one matter, but when
they as a whole conclude that any
given course is advisable and
proper they are very Capt to be
pretty near right.

There are hundreds Of hoodlums
in this and in every city Of Its size
on the continent undoubtedly GO
ing to destruction on account 'Of
the failure of parental authority.
They are idle and are becoming
vicious with every added month OF
idleness. 1t is only question OF
a few more years when they will
be ripe for the pen, and then they
will be shut out from the pale of
future decency, a constant source
of regret to their parents as we'll as
an abiding disgrace. 1t is great
pity that this state did not have
some industrial school with a pow
or of compulsion in 1t for such
cases, in which upon application
Of their parents they might be
placed and taught that obedience
to law and that respect for the
rights of others and those habits
of industry without which their
life Is so certain to end In failure II
not in actual crime. Some of these
boys are now on the border land OF
the forbidden ground, If they have
not already passed over, and If
something is not done to switch
them of their evil track they are
doomed. The state has a duty to
these youths.

The Cleburne Chronicle is right
in saying that nothing but a land
slide can teach the Democrats any
thing, and that they know more
now than they did before the cleo
ton, but that paper is off its base
when it says that the Democracy
will gather itself together in 1896
and whale Jerusalem out of the
Republicans. The people are not
again likely to trust the De-
mocracy until they say that the
Republicans are making as big a
mistake in the work Of government
as the Democrats did.

Pope Leo in the encyclical that
is soon to be promulgated will take
more pronounced ground than
ever in favor OF the loyalty of the
church to the form of government
under which it Is planted. A due
regard for the liberty of the church
is all that his Holiness requires,
and that liberty assured he urges
upon the clergy the utmost loyalty
to the government under which it
lives and is protected. There has
been no prelate Of modern times so
fully imbued with the broad
catholicity of the another OF
churches" as Leo has shown him
self, and had he another score OF
years before him he would plant
the church on such secure ground,
as to its relations to the govern
ments of the earth, as to bid def
ance to any rupture between them
aud the church over which he ex-
ercises authority.

The most hopeful sign in the po-
litical sky of the South at this
present is the veY general move
ment, irrespective Of parties, for
greater purity In elections. Ballot
reform, to the extent Of demanding
fair ballot and an honest count,
is being seriously urged in all Sec
tions. The evils arising from a
debauched ballot are seen to per-
meate all classes of politics and
threaten the purity Of business re-
lations. The corruptions Of the one
threaten the cleanness Of the other
and this fear Is at the bottom OF
the movement. No matter how
engendered or through what agen-
cy the reform originates, once 1t is
really brought in and the fairness
of the elections by the people
guaranteed new day will arise in
the South. There is no danger
that the South will be dominated
by ignorance or unworthily gov
erned or that intelligence will be
at the mercy Of ignorance, through
the workings of this reform. Out
of it may come a general registra-
tion law and an intelligence, or
educational, qualification, but this
will be no more than the best
minds of the Nation are demand
ing everywhere. That the South
has been waking up industrially OF
late to a remarkable degree has
not escaped notice. When to this
she takes in hand the publication
of her ballot boxes and raises the
standard of the franchise so that
the ignorant and the brutalized
are excluded, she will have faced
herself for a future Of prosperity
that even now is scarcely contem-
plated as possible by the most
hopeful and sanguine Of her
people.

The agitation against the double
standard of morality is growing
more general and more pronounced,
enlisting in behalf Of the idea the
very best writer's and thinkers of
the age. There are some of the
ancient mQralists who are still of
the opinion that there should be
one law for the husbands infideli-
ties and another for those of the
wife, but these remnants of a dis
carded morality carry little real
weight with them. As the man
sins and is punished so must the
punishment of the woman be
melted out. This Is the law OF the
new morality and in its exact JUS
tice it is destined to commend
itself to to the more equitable judg-
ment of this present. Equal trans.
gressions merit equal punishment

The uncertainties that surround
the acts prospective OF the Tennes-
see legislature are OF a muchness
with those that have invested the
legislature OF this state. The way
is open for dead loads Of efficient
legislation for both common
wealths, but how to persuade the
average representative Of the need
Of certain laws and the repeal OF
scores Of others does not yet appear.
The hardheadedness of the average
state legislator approaches wooden
headedness very closely at times.
Grover shows what was, in his
hand when the Hawaii royalists
came to him on that secret mis-
sion. He could not for bear re-
flecting on the naval forces Of the
country and charging the govern
ment that he administered with
unlawfully interfering with the
government Of Hawaii, but he had
to haul in his horns and tell the
royalist emmisaries that his hands
were tied and that the Congress of
this country had taken the matter
out of his hands and that he was
not in it any more. Not very
position for the president
of a great people to place himself
in, but then it is not in the books
for Cleveland to remember this
when it comes in contact with any
of his pet schemes.
