FAvORS ESTABLISHING LABORATORIES
 FOR CRIMINALS.
Rutledge, Nov. 25.

1 Rutledge, Nov. 25. To the State Herald: &
 We have recently noticed in a few of the papers of Alabama that public opln- ion is greatly in favcr of establishing a reformatory for the benefit of the con- victs of the state. Scarcely any enter prise known to us could be of greater in,- portance in the future welfare of the country than one in which the lower classes of the people can be touched and made to see wickedness as it should be seen.
 To their misfortune many, many of the people of our fair Alabama have lived their score and one and have never been shown by paternal index the purpose of life Sad indeed for our mind to visit the homes of some of the children of our knowledge No purpose, no aim, no fu- ture intentions are taught them; noth- ing higher than laboring and living month after month and year after year. Refinement is unsought and education.is a stranger. No wonder the state needs a reformatory. It will continue to need one until the great gulf of ignorance among the poor classes is filled. Just pause and think, there are hundreds of boys and girls in Alabama who know nothing of books nor their teachings. There are scores of schools within the borders of Alabama that receive as puo- lie funds not more than $50 per year.. If a healthy mind of boy or girl should hunger for knowledge as the body does for bread (and it should), how long would it thrive and grow on its portion of this amount of hired instruction? Three months schooling is the longest for a term for hundreds of our boys and girls, and only one term in a year. Still worse, think of the grade of teachers employed in these schools.
 Friends and countrymen, what we need and what we must have is close inves- tigation into our school system. The mind makes the man and the man makes the country. Then why are our authori- ties so indulgent in the school system? Political parties may harp on their tar if and on their free silver, etc., and at the same time schools under their juris- diction are struggling for maintenance and nothing said of them. Ignorance and vice go hand in hand retarding the progress of our enlightened country in the forms of aims houses, jails and re- formatories. Let's work for better public school system. and, if necessary. compulsory school law. Then in a few years op the rising generation will dawn prosperous day that will lead to high erplane of civilization. Then the owls and bats can sing their midnight hoots with in the walls of the reformatories we are now building. J. M R

PUBLIC OPINION.

Grover Cleveland seems to go on the principle that if a president will do noth- ing and do 1t long enough the people will come to believe that he always takes the wisest course.-Chicago Tribune, Rep.
 Benjamin Harrison treats the report that he Is millionaire with all the vehe- mence of a campaign lie. He has lively appreciation of the fact that we have never had a wealthy president.-Boston Herald, Dem.
 Pennsylvania republicans who took in terest enough in the of year. elections to roll up the interesting ma ajority of 174,- 900 votes wish to know if there is any thing else they can do to testify to their admiration for protection and American iideas.-Boston Journal, Rep.
 Let it be understood that while Chi cago will be grateful for the honor, and will cordially welcome, it's visitors, 1t will not put on sackcloth and ashes if the conventions shall go to New York Pitts burg, St. Louis or San Francisco-Chi- icago Times-Herald. Ind. Rep.
 ] Nobody cares particularly now whether the presidential campaign is long one lor is short, for there will be no uncer- .tainty regarding the result. Everybody can see plainly that the republicans will win. Business will not be disturbed by the canvass of 1896.-St. Louis Globe Democrat, Rep.
 President Cleveland has on several oc- caSionS expressed himself as an ardent advocate of the completion of the Mica ragua canal. and any practical bill in- troduced in congress will surely have his earnest support. He will no doubt make every effort to have the work of com pleting the canal inaugurated during his administration.-New Orleans Picayune.
 In the case of Mr. Cleveland no valid objection can be urged against a third term. Will the democrats nominate him with the hope of winning or will they court defeat by nominating another? Will the politicians who do not like MT. Cleveland or the people and business men who want him prevail?-New York Her ald Ind.
 The metropolis of northern Ohio has just adopted municipal flag with the legend, Cleveland, 1796," the date being that of the incorporation of the city. To some this may not seem so interesting, however, as the fact that the New York Herald has recently flung a Cleveland, 1896" banner to the breeze.-Providence Journal Ind.
 The south is still democratic. Support of centralized government is part of the inheritance of republicanism. In- sistance upon the right to exercise the power of the government to tax the many for the benefit of the few is another and equal part of that inheritance. These questions will remain paramount in the politics of the country. The time will not come when. in one or another of many varying phases, they will not mark the lines of party division. If the dem- ocratic party is to stand as the negative force against them, the south cannot cease to be solidly democratc.-St. Louis Republic Dem.

GOING FOR HIS SCALP.

The Montgomery Advertiser and the Mobile Register are going for Governor Oates scalp. The governor. in his inter- view of the 22d. repudiated the published statement that Capt Joseph F. Johnston, the free silver candidate for governor, and himself have formed combination to secure the gubernatorial and sen- atorial nominations. Among other things he said:
 q stand now just where did two years ago. I blame MT. Cleveland be- cause he refused to lead and direct his party in congress. He is no politician. and the situation when he was inau- gurated. and after, was such that we Deeded the services of one of the ablest to lead and discipline the various ele- ments in our party, which would have made 1t invincible for years to come.

sTIIL rHEY DISH 1r OUT.

The single gold standard papers in Ala bama. each of whom Is evidently on the regular mailing list of the sound cur rency committee, which does business at 52 William street, New York, should mo- tify their New York folks to cease agitat- ing the money question. They cry out in their columns that the money question should not be discussed in Alabama. They say free coinage can't be had-that it is dead issue; that it is not a question now that can be considered when 1t comes to practical legislation, but never a word of objection do we hear from them to the Sound Money club in Will liam street, which continues to send out it's car loads of literature agitating the money question. No use to try to dodge the question. The State Herald has fall- en heir to the mail sent out to the old Age-Herald. and the regular dose issued from William street comes to this pa- per-as it goes to all single gold standard papers throughout the country. Now, if these papers are really in earnest and want the agitation to cease they should begin at headquarters and silence, first, their own batteries and at the same time
  For decency's sake cease crying for the discussion to stop while you keep it up yourselves. and if you want to deceive anybody about it and expect to make any one believe you are sincere in your de- mands that the agitation of the question be dropped notify your New York club to revise its mailing list. The list of sin gle gold standard papers in the state having dwindled down to a bare bakers dozen, it is a fine scheme for those re- maining to cry out let's drop the ques- tion. hoping by that means to silence three-fourths of the press of the state, while their New York aid-de-camps, through the William street club, fires their literature into the state. Be hon. est. now. and silence your New York bat tery or stop trying to make believe that In the interest of harmony you want the discussion to cease.

Molasses for Smooth Roads.

Salr Lake Herald.
 It is not generally known, but the Utah Sugar company has begun novel use for the waste product from the works at Lehi, known as by-product, or molasses. Roads are actually being constructed with the syrups which are valueleSS IS sugar producers. the life having been ex- tracted The molasses is used as ce- ment, the body of the road being made up of fine gravel
 This new method was first used on the road leading from the country road on the sugar factory, and the travel over this thoroughfare since the opening of the sugar season has demonstrated the value of the syrups and gravel as ma terials for the improving of roads. The piece of road that has been so improved is as hard as the best of macadam, and cut it up The syrups are first poured over the roadway to be improved and then layer of gravel is sprinkled on. More syrups and gravel follow in their turns, until the road is in perfect condi- tion. There seems to be just sufficient potash salts in the molasses to give it the necessary cementing qualities.
 This making of roads and walks with refuse syrups from sugar factories has also been successfully tried in California. It is not at all unlikely that at the close of the present season the company will make more improvements on the roads leading to the factory. At first the mo- lasses showed a tendency to ooze up through the gravel, but the app1cat ation of an extra coating of gravel remedied this and made the road as smooth as a floor.

THE BIG RAILROAD COMBINE.
MT. Chandler Writes Protest to Mir. Cleveland
 Against the Trust.

AgaInSt the Trust.
 Senator William F. Chandler has writ ten the following letter to the president:
 Washington Nov. 22. 1885, '"To the President
 sir: I make complaint to you and through you to your interstate commerce commission against the trust and pool ing agreement now nearly finished of the eight American railroad trunk lines and the one Canadian line of pooling traffic "The agreement provides that every railroad in the combination shall make and maintain the transportation rates prescribed by board of managers rep 'resenting all the roads This is a con spiracy in restraint of trade and com merce under the act of July 2, 1890. The agreement also makes certain that all competition shall be abolished, as above required, by imposing heavy fines upon any offending road. which fines are to be applied for the benefit of the other roads. This is a division of earnings contrary to section 5 of the interstate commerce law.
 This trust and pooling agreement can be annihilated as provided by explicit ex- isting laws of the United States. CD by injunction from the courts; @ by an order of the interstate commerce com mission, or (S) by an indictment of the individuals signing the same.
 "It can also be easily stopped by wig orous appeal from you to Mir. J. Pierpont Morgan, whose power over the nine gov ernors of the nine trunk lines is as abso- lute as it was over the bond syndicate. It cannot be possible that you intend to take upon your administration the re- sponsibilty of fastening upon your bur dened and helpless people this, the hugest trust the world ever saw or that was ever conceived of, when one earnest word from you to your fresh attorney general. your ambitious chairman of your commission or your omnipotent banker friend will paralyze the inIquity in it's inception. Very respectfully.

ALABAMA POLITICS.
Johnston Has the Call on the Governorship and
 Pugh on the Senate.

A special from Montgomery to the Times-Democrat says:
 "The advent of Senators Morgan and Pugh, who have been preaching silver doctrines for the last week in north, west and east Alabama, finishing yesterday in Eufaula. has set people a-thinking and the newspapers commenting pro and con- but the most significant fact con- nected with these passing events that came to light very recently is the politi- cal outlook and probable outturn next year in this at present much disturbed commonwealth.
 "Since Governor Oates positive reiter- ation that he is not a candidate for gubernatorial honors at the next demo- cratic state convention, but proposes to enter the race for Pugh's seat in the federal senate, and Capt. Joseph F. Johnston's announced candidacy for gov ernor, coming right after Oates declina- ton, 1t looks very much like that this silver champion, simon pure democrat from the Magic City has decidedly the inside track, number of administration dailies having since espoused his cause, and no matter how formidable a com petitor may be brought out against John ston at the state convention, the chances strongly favor him, and many predict he will have a walk over; and since Senator Pugh has stumped this state and &C., knowledged to the Times-Democrat cor respondent that he is in the race for an- other term in the federal senate, with an incoming legislature likely to be total ly differently complexioned than recent ones 1t looks very much like Pugh again although such strong men as Congress- man R. H. Clarke of Mobile and Col H. c. Tompkins of Montgomery may be formidable competitors, perhaps more Sd than Governor Oates. whose chances are since the last fortnight considered less promising, the strong. friendly. sympa- thetic personal and political relations bet tween Senators Pugh. Morgan and Capt tain Johnston being urged to insure Johnstons nomination, and as a conset quence Pugh's reelection to the United States senate, and it must be confessed that--at present at Ieast-it looks very much that way, unless the sound money administration party can succeed in get ting one of their announced candidates or a dark horse to take the risk and chances to be elected or defeated. |
 Generally speaking, well informed polir ticians predict Johnston for Alabama $ next governor and Pugh to be his own successor. for it Is well to remember that the populites, republicans, etc.. are not idle, and if dissensions should break out in the ranks of the democracy the result would be extremely doubtful and hazard ous."

SALE POSTPONED. Effort to Break the Will of Mrs. Elizabeth
 Johnston.

Montgomery, Nov. 26.-(Specia1)-Mrs Mary A. Gillam has filed a suit against William R. Wood, administrator, seeking to break the will of the late Mrs. Eliza beth s. Johnston. It seems that Mrs. Johnston willed the property to Eugenia Rudolph, William R. Wood, Belle Fenner and Elizabeth Mccall, and now the com plainant says that it should be divided between herself and Harry J. Gillian, Mary J. Gillian, Elizabeth Mccall and her children, G. M. Scott and Johnston Mccall. and Mary Hunter, Martha O'Hara, James w. O'Hara, Ella O'Hara, Bartholomew Ligon, Ella Goldsmith and James Scott, according to the terms of her brothers will. Several houses and lots in this city, plantations in Macon and Lowndes counties. and 1000 acres of land in Dallas county are involved in the suit

 In reply to this the Advertiser groans and is constrained to say:
 The Advertiser does not think this criticism Is justified by the facts of his tory"
 And the esteemd organ on the gulf. which looks at politics seriously and even piously. as it declares, feels it a duty to unburden it's soul as follows:
 Finally we said that Governor oates appeal for harmony and announcement of his lack of perfect accord with the ad- minlstration indicated that he had turn ed the, governorShip over to captain Johnston and was bidding for the cap tain's influence in the senatorial con test That is plain English"
 And again:
 When we say candidate is bidding for influence or votes we necessarily ex- clude the idea that he has already se- cured them by a bargain. A man who has closed a bargain for an article does not need to do any bidding for 1t after wards"
 In other words, not to let the matter re- main clouded, the governor is still ac- cused of having a bargain on foot To remain in accord with these self-consti- tuted leaders of public opinion the gov ernor must run again and he must ac- knowledge Mir Cleveland as a sagacious leader. Otherwise Governor Oates will find himself read out of the democratic party and accused efvbeing man who is "toting his own skillet towards the senatorship.
