HELPING ALABAMA.

There were members of the last Legis- lature who excused themselves in voting against an appropriation for a State eX- hibit at Atlanta on the plea that it would be helping Atlanta" It is just a little difficult to treat such an objection seri- ously, as 1t is almost beyond comprehen- sion how such an idea could find serious Judgment in the mind of any intelligent citizen, since no measure could have been more directly on the line of helping Ala bama than that one was. Inasmuch as there may be others who have these same ideas at this time, it may be well to re- new the statement that it is not so much for Atlanta as it is for Alabama that the effort is now being made to raise a fund for that purpose. Alabama may be com pared in this respect to a tradesman with goods and wares to sell. He adver- tses for customers, proclaims the value and attractiveness of his stock, and ere long customers begin to throng his doors. Now what would be thought of such an one if he were to close his doors in the face of these customers and refuse to show his goods?
 It would be none the less unbusiness- like and discourteous than for Alabama to refuse to make an exhibit at Atlanta. For years the advantages and resources of Alabama have been proclaimed to the world and capital and immigration have been invited to investigate them. Now that they are coming to our doors for this purpose. it would be in the highest de- gree unbusinesslike. if not worse, to re- fuse to show what we have at this expoI sition.
 It is not helping Atlanta, but emphatic ally and unequivocaliy helping Alabama, and every citizen of the State should so regard it. Enterprise, energy and thrift often win over more richly gifted compet- itors, but where these combine nothing can stay their progress. Alabama needs only enterprise and public spirit to render her irresistible with her great wealth of resource to sustain them.

SENTENCE COMMUTED.
Joe Bailey, Sentenced to Be Hurg for Wife Murder, Gets Change to lmpris-
 onment for Life.

Joe Bailey will not hang, his sentence having been commuted to life imprison- ment.
 Governor Oates signed the order com- muting Bailey's sentence Monday night before leaving Montgomery for Hot Springs, but the fact that he had done so was not known here until yesterday morning.
 Bailey shot and killed his wife in Bes- semer about two years ago. He claims that she was bad woman, and had on two occasions given his pistol to another man for the purpose of killing Bailey. When his wife was shot Bailey claims he was trying to take his pistol away from her and that it was accidentally discharg ed while he was scuffling with her
 Bailey was tried last year and sen- preme court resulted in an affirmation of the sentence. Immediately after the deci- sion of the supreme court was made known friends of Bailey went to work in an effort to have the governor commute his sentence. A large number of sigma lures affixed to petition were secured and forwarded to the governor.
 The circumstances surrounding the killing were such that Governor Oates deemed it best to grant the petition, and so signed the order committing the sen- tence.
 The date fixed for the execution of Bailey was May 24 Yesterday when in- formed of the action of the governor he brigtened up considerably.

ETHICAL AND OTHERWISE.

The new apostle of silver monomet- allism around the corner, while praying like a certain animal frequently men, toned in scripture and making great pow-wow about "dead lines" has evil dently forgotten-if indeed 1t ever knew the ethics of journalism. We put this knowledge as doubtful. because the signs are that it belongs in this category. The last shape of the "castigated canine" is as follows:
 It is we'll known fact that the owner and editor of that paper advocated free coinage last year on the stump, and even so late as February of this year, when voting for the gold clause in the bond bill in the legislature, announced that he was as good free coinage man as MT. John or any other member of the house. MT. OKeefe, in the Independent, said in his paper last week, in substance, that the owner of the Age-Herald favored the unlimited coinage of silver at Is to l, but desired the government to buy the bullion and make the difference.
 The State has a way of discovering "well-known facts" that nobody else ever heard of. "The editor and owner" of the Age-Herald denies emphatcally that in any speech during the canvass of 91-92- 93-'94 was the financial condition re- ferred to by him in any way or manner. He also denies having expressed himself in an interview with MT. O'Keefe as any thing but bimetallist, holding that both metals should be maintained on parity, be the ratio ito I, 10 to l, 16 to l or 26 to l. He furthermore said to. the talented editor of the Independent, by way of H. lustration, that the Tennessee Coal and Iron company or the Sloss Steel and Iron Company had just as much right to de- mand that the pig iron they produced be coined into dollars, the difference in bull lion being considered, as have the silver mine owners of Colorado, Nevada and Montana to make like demand for their metal. He further stated the only way in which he would favor free coinage would be under an arrangement by which the government would be the recipient of the difference between the bullion value and the circulating value, instead of let ting this profit go to the silver mine own CTS or importers of Mexican sllver-not to speak of importers of foreign old plate
 But to return to the question hrst brought up. There is an old tradition among real journalists which our rocket contemporary might study with profit if it's silver flight lasts long enough before sending it on its downward course mere SUCK. GeTSOIdl JOuiidhoii 10 HUI Noiioiu- cred according to the ethics of the pro fession, and the rocket silver organ yes terday bordered on the ragged edge. We simply suggest this to the State as a principle current among recognized jour nalists.
 Now the State has started out fairly we'll; it has come very near having the makeup of a newspaper-that is, If money in the business office" mysteri- ous man at the political end. and last, but not least, good exchange list full of fat. good matter which looks we'll on an edil torial page until paralleleO without quotation marks Now if it goes to work and learns how" it will do itself proud, and we for one will be ready to pat 1t in approval. -..a--.-

BAD BOYS AND THEIR BIG BUD.

The New Orleans Picayune says that France showed the Monroe doctrine small respect when the Emperor Maxi milan was set up in Mexico and main- tained by French arms. As an abstract proposition, the Monroe doctrine is good enough; but as a practical factor in in ternational intercourse it is unfortunate- ly something of a myth"
 Senator Hill takes different view in regard to the Mexican affair. It occurred during our civil war, but this did not pre- vent President Lincoln from applying the Monroe doctrine. The avowed purpose of Louis Napoleon was to establish a French Empire in Mexico and to curtail the in- fluence of the United States in Central America. President Lincoln refused to recognize, as did other governments, the de facto sovereignty of Maximilian and of the blockade he instituted Under the influence then exerted by us France withdrew her army, Maximilian was de- serted and Mexico again became inde- pendent" says Senator Hill.
 It has not yet become necessary for the United States to resort to force to main- tain the Monroe doctrine. In fact, it is au

oUTwITTED BY THE SHERIFF.
A Maryland Mob Rolled in the Attempt to
 Lynch Negro.

Baltimore, Md, April 2s.-An attempt was made at Frederick, Md. last night to lynch a negro who attempted felonious assault on Mrs. Thomas Butts, while she was returning home from church last Sunday. The mob was foiled by Sheriff Zimmerman, who had removed Winter chief to a place of safety early in the evening. At midnight an organized mob of seventy-five men gathered in the vicin- ity of the jail, prepared to take the negro out and hang him. In addition to the seventy-five men there was another band of forty in service as sentinels
 Rumor that Winterchief had been re- moved reached the mob and the leader was sent ahead to learn If it was true. Sheriff Zimmerman invited the man to enter the jail and inspect the cells, all of which were standing open and the prison CTS walking in the corridors. The leader of the lynchers became thoroughly satis- fled that the bird had flown and went back to disperse his mob. He stated they had come fully determined to hang the prisoner and would have taken des- perate measures to accomplish their pur- nose
Birmingham age-herald., 1895-04-24

open question if President Monroe con- templated resort to force in his famous message. He said that I've should con- sider any attempt on the part of Euro pean governments to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dan- gerous to our peace and safety" and any attempt by the European governments to oppress or control the South American States would be regarded in the light of "an unfriendly disposition toward the United States" The prevailing sentiment of the Monroe doctrine seems to be poJ litical one. The United States seemed determined to preserve this hemisphere as the home of republics, as distinguished from the monarchies of the old world The doctrine does not prohibit Europe from getting a foothold on this continent in a material way. The Panama Canal shows this. Neither President Hayes nor Congress interfered when Colombia granted to France the right to build and control the Panama Canal
 A perversion of the intent of the Mon roe doctrine has doubtless led some of the South American States to believe that the United States has assumed a sort of protectorate over them. Hence they re- fuse to pay their just debts to European governments and mistreat the subjects of foreign countries These little States should learn at once that if European power declares war on them for just cause the United States will not interpose in their behalf. They must behave them selves like good little boys and not de- pend on their big brothers to protect them in their rascality.
