 Or to wretchedly starve and diei And where the beach-comber harries The isles of the southern sea, T At the peak of his hellish vessel,

 With his btterest dying breath; And the Arab has hissed his hatred
 As he spits at its folds in death. The hapless felah has feared it
 On Tel-eI-Kebir's parched plain, And the Zulu's blood has stained it
 With deep indelible stain. ." Tt has noated o'er scenes of pillage,

STILL FOR JOHNSTON

The Fort Payne Journal, in very able reply to criticism of the Advertiser says it is still for Johnston, and does not believe, as the Advertiser intimates, that the sound money democrats in Ala bama will follow..the example of their brethren in Kentucky. It concludes the article as follows:
 And now, in conclusion, we favor fair play. We have been so doubtful of the policy of free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 that we have not advocated it. Yet we honestly believe that it would be prefer able to the present condition. We be- lleve moreover that a majority of the democratic voters of this state honestly favor free coinage of silver and gold at the present ratio. When this element of the party was defeated In their choice for governor, and Governor Oates won the victory over Captain Johnston, they rallied around the nominee and made his election possible Had they taken the course of the sound money democrats in Kentucky, alluded to by the Adver- tiser Governor Oates would have been by a much greater majority than was Wat Hardin.

JOHNSTON WILL BE NOMINATED.

Notwithstanding the report tele- graphed the State Herald from Washing ton that MT. Clarke had informed lead ing Alabama republican that he would be candidate for governor, the state press does not appear to have gone into ecstacies.
 Really, there are less than a score of democratic papers in the whole state that would be at all delighted with the candidacy of MT. Clarke. It is a well recognized fact that the great body of the democratic voters of Alabama who call themselves sound money men are entirely satisfied with the candidacy of Captain Johnston, and realize that he should be the nominee of the party for governor of Alabama. They know that he deserves it, and that he would make a model executive. They know that his nomination would reinforce the ranks of the party.
 Some will doubtless reluctantly support MT. Clarke if he comes into the race, but there are very few who are not entirely satisfied that whether MT. Clarke enters or not, Captain Johnston will be over whelmingly nominated.
 MT. Clarke is considered an able and honest man. It is known of all men that he does not really aspire to the office of governor but has senatorial aspirations "a place for which he has long been an avowed candidate. If Mr. Clarke enters
 the race for governor it will be mainly because of the desperate and labored ef- fort of the Advertiser to force a financial fight against Captain Johnston. Doubt less MT. Clarke has personal friends who will support him warmly. The circular sent out by the Huntsville Mercury ap- pealing to "sound money" democrats to write Mr. Clarke urgent letters likely se- cured as many as one or two hundred gentlemen to do their bidding The dem ocrats of Alabama, regardless of their convictions on the financial question, have made up their minds that Captain Johnston is fairly entitled to the nomi- nation in consideration of his long con tinued and faithful and efficient service to his party, and they will not conscript any man to oppose him, nor rally around any man known not to desire the place, simply in an effort to defeat Johnston. Captain Johnston will be the nominee of the democratic party in Alabama for governor this year, and he will be elected in August by the largest majority any democrat has received since the unhappy divisions came in our party.
 The State Herald has private letters from leading democrats in every section of Alabama, and without exception these letters convey the information that the masses of the party are overwhelmingly for Johnston, and that large numbers ot democrats who have revolted from the leadership of the Advertiser will line up with their old comrades

Can Take His Cnoics..

It has been expected that with the new year would come the announcement of MT. Clarke as a candidate for governor, but the announcement has not come yet. It might possibly be a stroke of policy in MT. Clarke to enter the race for gov- ernor. although he sees defeat staring him in the face He is comparatively a young man; he has been very successful indeed in politics, and to continue. in the race for the senate and be defeated for that office, while the Advertiser is mak- ing such appeals to him to run and de- feat Captain Johnston for governor, would shelve him eternally; while to of fer himself as a sacrifice in the guberna- torial race might give him quite an ad- vantage in the race for the senate when MT Morgans time expires. The real question for him to consider is, for which office he had rather te defeated, and his preference in that case should govern his action in the matter-Russell Regis- ter

MIR. CLARKE,s ANNOUNCEMENT.

The State Herald publishes this morn- ing the formal announcement of Hon. R. H. Clarke's candidacy for governor. This announcement has been anticipated for some time, and this paper has done all in it's power to dissuade MT. Clarke from taking this rash step. MT. Clarke pro- fesses to want harmony in the party, and says that the only way to get it is to make the fight for what he terms the de- clared principles of a majority of the democrats of Alabama, and 1t is to ob- tain that expression that induces him to take the field.
 MT. Clarke's determination to thrust an unnecessary issue into the state cam paign is to be deplored. The people of this state can never be forced to approve of a national banking system based upon gold alone, and will never consent to con- tract the currency by destroying $500, ,O0O,- 900 of treasury notes. They will never vote approval of such a policy, in viola ton of all the principles and traditions of the democratic party.
Birmingham state herald., 1896-01-05
Better Fight the Enemy.

The few democratic papers of the state that oppose Captain Johnston for gov- ernor. and that keep fighting him as though he were devil instead of loyal and upright citizen and true democrat, have not the welfare of the state at heart, to say the least of 1t. Suppose they induce the Hon. R. H. Clarke or some other sound money candidate to en- ter the field in opposition to the magnan- imous Johnston, will that bring about harmony, peace and good feeling in the party? Nay, verily! Captain Johnston's old friends and supporters will cling the closer to him; the new converts will be found at their side supporting them until the battle is fought and the victory is gained. Better, ten thousand times bet ter, gentlemen, to turn your artillery on the enemy-fght that party with all the maignity and hate with which you are now fighting Johnston and your pen will in truth be mightier than the sword.- Leighton News

Continues to Grow in Favor.

The Montgomery Advertiser has been a power for good in this state by its ad- vocacy of true democratic principles. It did more than all the papers In the state in ventilating the sins of omission and commission of the genial Reuben in his first and second race for governor. It is q staunch supporter of the present ad- ministration. It is perfectly sound on the finance question. Notwithstanding all these virtues it is assailing the good name and fame of as good democrat, as upright citizen and as brave sol dier as ever entered the Confederate army in defense of his country. Why the Advertiser keeps fighting this hon. est, brave and true son of Alabama is beyond our ken. We do not think it is his silver views, nor his adverse criti- cisms of President Cleveland, but be it what it may, Johnston is growing in fa- vor with the people. and will continue to do so until he is nominated by accla- nation as Alabama's next governor.- Leighton News.

1906. THE STATE HERALD. 1896.
Subscription Price of the Daily Reduced to
 Six l$6l Dollars Per Annum.

Subscription Price of the Daily Reduced to
 Six ($6) Dollars Per Annum.
 The State Herald management, appre- ciating the very liberal encouragement extended to the paper by the people of Alabama and other states, and especially grateful to the business men of Birming- ham for their very liberal support during this season, hereby announces a reduc- ton of the subscription price of the Daily State Herald for 1896 to six ($6) dollars per annum, delivered free by mail or by carrier.
 Thus the State Herald becomes the only daily morning newspaper in Ala- bama which meets the demand of mod ern journalism, placing itself In easy reach of every reading man, woman and child in the state.
 This reduction in subscription price does not mean a decline in the general excellence of the State Herald. It is the purpose of the management to steadily improve the paper in every department and make 1t invaluable as a daily visitor to Alabama homes and business offices. In announcing this reduction the State Herald. which already enjoys the largest circulation of any newspaper in Alaba- ma, confidently expects large increase in it's number of readers, at home and abroad, because we realize that Ala bamians are an appreciative people, who always respond literally to the invitation of enterprise and progress. This reduction in price carries with it the necessity for a strictly cash system in the subscription department. There fore our patrons will be expected to pay monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or an nually in advance, and will not become offended when cut from the list for delin- quency.
 Our rates for 1896 are as follows: Daily State Herald, per month. 50 Daily State Herald. per quarter..... 1 50 Daily State Herald, per annum.... % Sunday State Herald alone, per an-
 num...... .......... ............. % Weekly State Herald, per annum. =. % Remittances can be made by express, postofiice money order or drafts at cur rent rate of exchange. Address,

AT GADSDEN.

Parties visiting Gadsden must bear in mind that there Is one good hotel there, and that one is the Johnson house. What makes 1t so popular, and why is it so hard to get a. room there? It is easily explained. The hotel Is under the man. agement of one of the most obliging land- lords in the state, Major Manning, as- sisted by the affable and obligng clerk, w. P. Cramer, whose name is popular among drummers everywhere. Here you get the best the market affords, free sam- pie rooms, with bar and billiard rooms attached-and what more do you want?
 Long live the Johnson house and it's able and efficient and courteous proprie- tor and clerk. J. J. c.

WHERN DOES HE STANDp

Will the Mobile Register inform an anxious people what Hon. R. H. Clarke thinks about removing the 10 per cent federal prohibition tax upon state banks! Mr. Clarke was in favor of removing that unconstitutional prohibition when he replied to,the queries of the New York World in the spring of 1893. The secretary of the treasury was at that time also in favor of preserving and restoring this fundamen- tai right of the states, and his report in favor of currency to be issued by free state banks and under national bank ing system, based entirely upon bank credits and not upon national banks, received the unqualified indorsement of President Cleveland. The president, MT. Carlisle and Mir. Clarke were then standing fat-footed ort the national dem- ocratc platform, which declared for repeal of the prohibtive legislation against state banks. Now, however the president and Mir Carlisle both report in favor of the existing republican na- tional bank system, based upon per petual bonded debt, which is sustained upon the shoulders of tax-ridden peo- ple people who pay to the adminstra- tion $500, ,000, 900 a year, which, divided pro rata among the people, saddles upon the consumers and tax payers of Ala bama not less than $14,0l0,0 900 annually. We are asked to bear this terrible bur den of debt which is seven fold more than all the taxes we pay to the state government, and in addition to witness constantly growing bonded debt, upon iol, their banks and expand or contract the cur rency of the country at pleasure.
 Now that the president and MT. Car lse have deserted the free banking sys- tenn of our fathers and gone over, horse, foot and dragons, to the federal bank ing system of Nicholas Riddle and Judge Salmon P. Chase, we are anxious to know whether MT Clarke has followed them into the quagmire. Has he gone back upon state banks? That is one grave question he must answer when he takes the stump for governor.
 No doubt he will say that the currency question has nothing to do with state af- fairs. But the people will reply that the currency of a country lies at the very basis of trade and that the state of Ala bama has the right to establish banks of issue under her own laws just as our fathers had in their day. It is not for gotten that in 1887 the legislature of Ala bama passed resolutions that gold and silver alone are the money of the consti- tution and that the states have sov- creign right to estab blish banks of issue at their pleasure based upon gold and silver When we desert those old land- marks we are at sea. Has MT. Clarke deserted those old landmarks? We hope the Register will inform us candidly as to the position of it's candidate on this

Because of His Groomers.

The Journal is not desirous to fright en MT. Clarke out of the race for gov ernor. It rather invites his candidacy. Much of the honor is due him for Captain Johnston's defeat in 1894. It would be retributive justice for him to enter the race In 1896 and in turn be beaten by Johnston, and that will be the size of it. MT. Clarke will not carry over a dozen counties in the state, not because he is unpopular in himself, but because of the postofI1ces that are grooming him, and every sensible democrat who knows, or cares to know anything, knows it would be political suicide to nominate him or any other person at the dictates of a few would-be bosses.-Montgomery Journal.

The new year brings with 1t many promised blessings and many hopes of a new and regenerated spirit among the people. The political intolerance of the past few years, which has been a blot upon the state and a reflection upon the intelligence and good sense of the people, Is fast dying out, and the influence of those who have done so much to divide the white people of the state, to destroy the white mans party and make 1t a minority party, dependent on question: able methods for success is also dying

The Montgomery Advertiser Thursday morning paints man who Is a dema- gogue with not sufficient sense or re- source to conceal his purpose, man who Is selfish in motive vile in design treacherous when treachery pays. infa- nous when infamy pays, a criminal when crime pays--a cringing, despicable dis reputable character who is all things to all men and sincere in nothing. with but one single motive in life and that is to get office-and this man it calls Joe Johnston Montgomery Journal.

Let There Be No JuegIery.

This Is no time to be trihing with the will of the democratic masses of Ala bama The putting forth of MT. Clarke by the Montgomery cabal Is nothing more nor less than the inauguration of a desperate effort to stifle the will of the majority The sentiment of the democ- racy of Alabama is so overwhelmingly favorable to the nomination of Capt. Joe Johnston for governor that the clique of professional politicians who are steering the Clarke movement must be relying largely upon some cevert plan to trick the people ont of their evident wish

from the rule of such political thraldom as it was redeemed from carpet bag and negro domination in 1874. In coming years history will record the two ex- tremes of negro rule and political boss rule, and when the impartial historian compares the two, he will find it difficult to determine whether the regime of the one or the other has proven the more damnable and calamitous to the state. But the sunshine of hope is visible in the horizon. The clouds are disappearing The new year, the happy new year, Is full of hope and romise.-Montgomery If1lrna1

A special from Washington says that Hon. Richard H. Clarke is undoubtedly candidate for governor of Alabama The announcement has been anticipated, and will create no special sensation It does not and cannot alter the fact that the large majority of the democrats of Ala bama believe that Capt. Joe Johnston should be our next governor. The act ual announcement. of MT Clarke's can- didacy will not break the specialization of sentiment in favor of Captain John- ston. It had been discounted, as 1t were, in the popular mind.-Huntsville Mer- cury. co
