LET'S GET RID OF THE DEFICIT
 FIRST.

The planting of twenty five or thirty thousand dollars in a governors mansion at Montgomery would, as a matter of course, be one step more in the direction of permanently locating the capitol of the state in that city. It would, of course, be unfair to intimate, even, that that fact is cutting any figure in the ef- fort now going on to get an appropriation for the purpose of erecting a mansion. But some people are likely to take that view of the case. There are a great many people in the state who do not take to the idea of allowing the capitol to re- main at Montgomery always, but it would be equally unfair to say that be- cause of that fact certain people are op- posed to the proposed appropriation. Regardless of the question as to where the capitol of the state is to finds it's final resting place, this is no time to be appropriating the peoples money to erect a building without which we can do and get along very well and without which we have done and managed to get along moderately well down to this time. The legislature must take steps to enable the state to get rid of the very large deficit and 1t should not appropriate a single dollar that is not absolutely necessary until the deficit has been wiped out.

-----Ai ] THE FIRST HUNT .la
 fu
Of the Dollar Hide Land Company an
 Enjoyable One.

The Eutaw Whig and Observer gives the following account of the hunt by some of Birmingham's Nimrods:
 The first hunt of the Dollar Hide Land company was indeed an enjoyable one. The following members were present: Messrs. E. c. Meredith, Fred Reese, John Woods, John Mcqueen, of Birmingham; w. W. Holley, J. P. Mcqueen, Bernard Harwood, William Scears. pr. A. H. Byrd and Judge T. w. Roberts. Invited guests: Dr. Lewis Morris, E. A. deFu- niak and Josh Jemison tcolored), of Bir- mingham; pr. I. D. Morgan, Messrs. Jno- D. Mcqueen, George T. Atkinson and William Meredith, and Deb Marks and Sid Duke (colored).
 Early on Monday, the 9th, stands were taken, and during the entire week the hunt was continued with uninterrupted zeal. The interest of the hunters re- mained unabated though little success was met with during the first few days No deer were killed and very few jumped. The hunters were content, however, with their success in the way of small game.

ASABAMA SYNOD.
Appointed to Visit the Barber Memo
 rial Seminary.

Anniston, Nov. 19-(Special Corre- sponds snce.)-Last night the synod of Alabama held an interesting meeting.
 The solemn service of the sacrament of the Lords supper was observed. Rev. D. A. Planck, of Mobile, administered the bread, and Rev. l.. $. Handley, D. D., of BirminghamS administered the wine. The congregation were waited upon by Ruling Elders H. l.. Mckee. of Selma; Maj, Joseph Hardie, of Birming- ham, T. Harrison. of Mobile, and Geo. Dunglinson, of Talladega.
 Rev. S. H, Chester, D. .sD., Of Nashville, secretary of foreign missions, then fol- lowed with an interesting address upon this subject. In his address he showed that while many churches were doing nothing for the cause, others were mak- ing large contributions to this work. Over forty churches were each support ing a foreign missionary. Individuals, men and women, were each supporting missionaries. One earnest man not only was supporting a missionary, but has given himself also to the work.
 This addres was followed by a stir ring address by Maj. Joseph Hardie, in which he called attention to the contri- button made by the churches of the sym od Much depends upon the pastor. An illustra ton was giyen',of this In the case of three country churches who were weak financiallys but an earnest minister 
 this work upon the conscience of the people not only were their contributions to this multiplied many fold but his own salary was increased one-haf. A collection for this work was taken up, which amounted to $50.
 A committee consisting of Rev. J. M. P. Otis, D.D., LIs. D., Rev. N. l.. Ander- son, Rev. A. B. Curry. Rev. John Barbour, H. L. Mckee and T. Harrison, was ap- pointed to visit as the synod's represent tatives the Barber Memorial seminary.
 This morning there was an animated discussion upon the subject of Christian education in which number of members took part. k-SA
 At II o'clock Rev. O. B. Wilson deliver ed a very instructive address upon the work among negroes. For nearly an hour this brother spoke with the utmost ear- nestness and from 8 deep. personal ex- perience of this work, showing the great need of the Christian white people of the south helping in this great work. He was followed by Rev. A. l.. Phillips, D. D.. of Tuscaloosa, who in a forcble and touch ing address spoke of the grand work done by MT. Wilson as an evangelist among work. Rev. D. D. Dean,s of Carrollton, followed. telling from experience what may be done by minister to white peo- pie who will give part of his time also to the negroes. Prof w. H. Werner of Tuscaloosa, spoke of the success of the Stjliman institute and the great results accomplished with the small contribu- tfons made. Addresses also were made by Rev. w. l. Sinnott, of Columbiana, Rev. N. l.. Anderson, of Montgomery, and others. S

doctrine from different standpoint and for a different reason. M&
 One of the ablest advocates of the gold standard theory among the press of AIa- bama is the Huntsville Mercury. .sThe Mercury supported the candidacy of Hon. R. H. Clarke because MT. Clarke was run ming on the gold standard side of the question. During that contest the Mer7 cury made a gallant fight for it's candi+ date. Published in it's editorial columns vera many able editorials on the finan- cial question-about the ablest that ap peared in any Alabama paper, and about as good as it is possible to get up on that side of the question. When the democra- cy of Alabama declined to nominate the Mereury's candidate and insisted on mak- ing platform not in line with the Mer- cury's way of thinking that paper fell into line in good. faith and no paper In the state gaveCapt. Johnston and MT. Bryan more loyal support than did the Mer- cury. e@ s1tt
 Now that the election is over where do we find. the. Mercury? Not crying out that prosperity,has already returned and that the advocat es of free coinage should promptly hidestlfeir faces in shame and get out of sight entirely It says i've an- tieipate smooth sailing for sound money if the promised prosperity materializes." That-is just what everybody says except the gold newspapers that are advocating the gold standard from an entirely differ ent standpoint to that of the Mercury.
 The Mercury is about the only paper that comes. to this, cffice that is gold standard paper. that has not declared that prosperity has already returned and that the advocates of free coinage should therefore concede that they were wrong. The difference between a. real believer in the gold standard and a gold standard advocate from a different point of view is very perceDtible

Ere the hunt was over luck attended MT. Reese, who brought down a four-pronged buck weighing 200 pounds, thus redeem- ing past failures and sustaining the rec- ord of the club.
 Many amusing things occurred during the week. Dr. Morris came in personal contact with 'coon, much to the doctors distress and the amazement of the 'coon A nigger was overcome by the mephitic eXudations of the feline commonly called skunk. When Josh was asked as to this, he said: Correct. be Gosh!'
 At noon Saturday after "dat bad nig- ger from Birmingham had succeeded in killing a small buck, the hunt broke up and all returned home, well satisfied with the weeks sport, and planning an- other at no distant date.
 The thanks of the guests are due the club for royal entertainment and week of real enjoyment.

EASILY DISCOVERED.

We anticipate smooth sailing for sound money if the promised prosperity mate riaiizes, but if 1t does not, and if high protective tariff demoralizes business. as 1t has done heretofore, the democracy will arise from the ashes of defeat and wreak vengeance upon all opposition in 1900. as it did in 1892. regardless of Presi- dent Cleveland and the constant vigil ance' of his New York associates Huntsville Mercury.

CAUGHT THE SECOND TIME.

It looks rather improbable that man who had at one time in his life been pick ed up in a-Jsilver brick deal would be aft erwards caught bys a gold brick swindler. It appears, however, that one Mir John s. Bowlin, of Duquoin, H., after having, not many years ago, had some experience in silver brick swindle, allowed himself talked into the purchase of gold brick the other day. Of MT. Baldwin and his experience the St Louis Post-Dispatch says: 44us-. .
 John S. BoWln, of Duquoin H., paid S1 300 for 8 gold brick, and is now trying to get his money back.
 It is only few years since Mir BoWlln invested in silver brick. He was one of the 101 who elected John M. Palmer to the. United States senate. He was one of the most enthusiastic members of that body and with him, as with the great majority of his partisan colleagues, en- thusiasm was the result of conVlction that Gen. Palmer was one of the heav- fest solideSt and most argentlferouS Sli- yer bricks that ever came out of the mint.4 It .,
 This conviction grew out of Palmer past record, on the stump, in the news papers, and by his compact with the pop ulist in that legislature It was as a sif55 silver brick that Gen. Palmer was bought and paid for by Illinois democratsT-not by Mir. BoWlin, but by others-and not for S1 500 but for $5,000
 Although Mir. Bowlin was out no cash on that transaction, the experience should have taught him lesson. After the Palmer silver brick proved dross Tn the assay, he should have learned to be- ware of ,fakers and bunko men. E.

The republican gold standard press claims that confidence has been restored by the defeat of the free, indepe endent and unlimited coinage of silver at 16 to 1, and that prosperity will follow. The gold standard democrats believe that prosperi- ty will surely follow if the republicans will content themselves with so amending our currency laws as to take the govern Inent out of the banking business with out any effort on their part to restore the high protec ctive Mckinley tariff.-Mont- gomery Advertiser.
 This is the first intimation that we have had that there was any difference what ever between the claims of "the republi- can gold standard press" and "the gold standard democrat tic" press.
