HONEST DOLLAR JOURNALISM.

The Democracy of the Advertiser has never been questioned. It is the uncom- promising, inflexible exponent Of the party in this State. It is the straitest Of the sect, and has never allowed height nor depth to separate it from the organ ized Democracy. It has not hesitated to lay the lash across the shoulders of the mighty, and has advocated without fear or favor whatever it believed to be for the best interest of the party. Its fealty is above reprcach.
 Every man in Alabama knows that if the Advertiser believed the Age-Herald, under its present management, was a menace to Democracy the note of warn ing would be sounded forthwith clear and strong. But the Advertiser sees no ne- cessity for going into mysteries because a Republican has put capital into the Age-Herald. It very mildly depre- cates the presence of MT. Aldrich among the stockholders of the Age-Herald, but almost in the same breath admits his right as a business man to engage in any undertaking which assures him satis- factory returns. The Advertiser is not in the least alarmed about the future course of the Age-Herald as a Demo- cratic paper, and generously, manfully says so.
 In certain sense the AgeHerald and Advertiser are rivals. Both are com petitors for the patronage of a great State, which is particularly of one po- litical faith. The Advertiser is too hon orable however, not to say toe astute, to attempt to discredit the Age-Herald by methods which find favor with the News and State. The Advertiser knows boomerang when it sees one, and besides, it has pride in keeping clean hands.
 The Evening Bolter, which is in poli- tics for revenue only, and the Morning Misprint. that moribund type of dem agoguery, are unable, of course, to ap- preeiatea the Advertisers attitude to- ward the Age-Herald. But the great, big-hearted public does and that is more than enough.

A BOON FOR WOMEN.
Dr. Hartman's Great Remedy as Prescription
 for Wornout Women.


 It has been a well-known fact for years that the United States contains thou sands and tens of thousands of tired, nervous, fretful women. They are not actually sick, but so languid and frail and haggard that life seems to have lost all of it's pleasures for them, and those who live with them are sometimes wor- ried almost into the same condition by hearing their incessant complaints. But it seems to the poor sufferers that noth- ing goes right; that everybody they come in contact with is opposed to them, and, in consequence. they are fretful and irri- table.
 It is to such women as this that Pe- ru-na comes as a blessing in time of the greatest need. By making a thorough trial of this prince of remedies they will soon be made to realize it's great worth and will never be without it again. It will bring back to their wasted cheeks the plumpness and bright color of perfect health, remove from their jaded minds all of the prejudices and worries with which they have been suffering, and give them buoyancy of step and sparkle of eye that only the best of health ever brings.

The Age-Herald.

MT Aldrich admits that he has pur- chased the Age-Herald.
 The Daily State and the Evening News have been in paroxysms of chagrin and mysteries ever since, and seem to need hyperdermic injections of mush and the watchful care of the dog catcher. The public has been always dependent for correct and fresh daily news upon the Age Herald. the columns of the Evening News itself attesting to that Tact. The public will not concede the claims so ar rogantly preemptied by the Daily State that it is now the sole democratic occu- pant of the field of morning journalism in this city, and will force 1t to prove its claim before a democratic state conven- tion. While there is nothing in common whatever between the Age-Herald and Star, yet the Star is glad to know that its neighbor has escaped falling into the hands of the State. crowd and hopes to see it prove the abandoned apostasy of the Evening News to the entire world, and force the State to appear in its true colors.
 To the management of the Herald we say may good fortune not only fol- low. but overtake and abide with you.- Sunday Morning Star.

THEY FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT

The result of the sound money cam paign in Iowa should encourage every advocate of the honest dollar to continue in aggressive work for the cause
 In the heart of the West, almost lap ping the boundaries of the silver-produc- ing area. it was to be expected that Iowa would be in full sympathy with the 16 to 1 movement.
 Moreover, the Democratic party being in the minority in that State it might have been a good stroke for the man. agers to ally themselves with the silver side. There was the temptation of office and the control of the State for time, at least
 But the Democratic Executive Commit tee hearkened not to the voice of the tempter. The fight looked almost hope- less, but they rolled up sleeves and went into it after the maner of men who bat tie for principle. Sound money literature was scattered far and wide and sound money orators lifted their voices in every hamlet and at every cross road
 It was campaign of education in the strictest sense, and as such 1t won. Counties which were conceded to the sill yer monometallists have spoken out in convention for sound money, and it has been shown beyond doubt that the rank and file of the Democracy of Iowa have escaped the taint of financial heresy.
 All honor to the sturdy Democrats of the Hawkeye State! Their example is inspiring. Honest men of all political creeds will respect them for their uncom- promising front. The lesson they have taught us is invaluble. Education is only the antidote for the free silver craze.

AN ECHO OF THE PAST.

Upon looking over some old papers Mrs. M. A. Myatt of Marion, Ala, came across the following interesting doeu- ment: Mrs. Myatt's father was one of the trustees of the Marion Female semi nary and hence came into possession Of this noble letter from the graduating class of 1861. Many of the names ap- pended thereto will cause heart-throb in many memory. Some of them we'd ded some of them already passed over the river, all of them, be 1t hoped, having reaped some reward for their devotion and their womanly sentiment. The young ladies of the seminary beg the trustees to excuse them from the public exercises now published to commence on the 2d of July.
 Our fathers and brothers have left us and we have no heart to engage in exh- btions of any kind. The quiet of home IS much more consonant with our feel ings, and even the every day duties of the school room, until the expiration of the terms, would be far preferable to presenting ourselves to the public in such distressing times as the present. The gayety of concerts and exhibitions can not engage our attention and interest when at any day our homes may be darkened by mourning for loSed ones.
 We beg you, therefore, not to force us into scenes with which we have so little sympathy. Allow us to go to those few of our friends who are left us in quiet at the close of the term
 This petition must not be understood to apply to the commencement sermon on Sunday, or the graduating exercises on Monday. We believe these two public exercises appropriate. and prefer a for maj close of the session with them.
 Please give us reply before the close of the week. Hoping it will be an af- firmative one, we sign ourselves:
