Spiked Flour in Congress.

Representative Gaines, of Nashville, Tenn, recently discussed on the floor of the house the doings of some of his con- stituents. There are about as many dop- CTS in Nashville as in any other part of the country; but that fact did not deter MT. Gaines from vigorous presentation of the subject. He finds that the practice of adulteration threatens to break down legit- innate or pure-four milling; that it is detri- mental to health; that 1t will materially de- crease wheat products; that it is a swim dle upon bread buyers, and tha it will ruin the reputation of American flour abroad.
 MT. Gaines read letter from an experi- enced milling man of Tennessee, in which the subject is treated fully and practically. He shows that the adulterator buys wheat at $L04 bushel, the market price, and he mixes with 1t 20 per cent. of corn, which

The Birmingham News yesterday crowned it's brow with another wreath of victory in its anniversary edition cele- brating it's tenth birthday. It was most credtable publication, consisting of forty pages, and nearly all of 1t devoted to the greatness, past, present and future, of Birmingham and the Birmingham district. It was in truth superb and reflected great credit upon Alabama's greatest afternoon newspaper It showed enterprise of a su- perior kind and nothing has ever been printed in this city or elsewhere that so truthfully and graphically portrayed the industrial features of this district as was yesterdays handsome edition of the News. Great is Birmingham and great is the Bir- mingham Evening News. Long may it live and prosper under the able manage ment of Editor Rhodes-a monument to his enterprise and ability.

Like a Ranmerann.

It would seem that Gen. Wheeler has successfully put the clamps to Robert M. Rawls, editor of the Courier at Athens, in the matter of refuting the charges in alleged Washington letters printed in that paper Jan. 27 and Feb. 10. The person alleged by Editor Rawls to have written the letters, G. M. Humphrey, denies hav- ing written them, thus leaving the impress sion that they were written by some one not in Washington but in or near Athens perhaps by Editor Rawls himself. The let ters are alleged to have reflected most se- riously upon an Alabama family now living in Washington. Gen. Wheeler has printed a four-page circular refuting all the charges made against him and makes out a case so strong in his own favor that would indicate every charge was but the and truth were unknown qualities in the writer's domain. It was done unquestion- ably for the purpose of defeating Gen. Wheeler for renomination to congress. but like the boomerang, it returns to injure the author more than the one at whom it was aimed. Editor Rawls appears to have the worst of it, and if he was the author of the letters he has received nothing more than was coming to him.

An EnterprisIng Railroad.

The Alabama Great Southern railroad performed a freight feat last night un- known in the history of southern railroad ing.
 By virtue of it's splendid news service, excelling all southern newspapers, The Age-Herald has been forced to print 5000 extra copies daily during the last week, running it's daily issue up to 11,OOO car load of paper ordered from Watertown, N Y, was in Cincinnati Saturday morning. Between Cincinnati and Chattanooga the train of which it was a part was wrecked but The Age-Herald's car of paper held intact. Numerous telegrams were sent to hurry it along. but it was nearly midnight when 1t reached Chattanooga last night. It being necessary that this paper be here for The Age-Herald to issue this morning, an order was given to the AlapaHia Hiea' Southern railroad to bring it through on special behind it's fastest engine. At 1150 last night it left Chattanooga. The tracks were cleared and at 2:55 this morning the special stopped at the Twentieth street crossing in this city, the run of 1iS miles having been made in three hours and ten minutes with a freight car behind an en- zine.
 Thus The Age-Herald comes out this morning as newsy and sparkling as Is it's wont.

tions and a. good electorate. And In ascer- tainlng how candidates stand other condl- tions should be considered as beliefs ad- verse to a constitutional convention alto gether The opposition will resort to inn possible conditions and amendments The truth is, a categorical answer should be demanded to this simple question: Are you in favor of constitutional convention? The man who is not willing to trust the delegates that the people of Alabama would send to a constitutional convention is not at heart in favor of a convention. The man who starts out with conditions and amend ments is not the man who places honest elections and an intelligent electorate first. Beware of the man with conditions and amendments. He is not the man who will vote straight and sure at Montgomery when the question comes up for settle ment. He has an eye not so much to the general good of the state as to some special interest in it. Insist upon yes-and-no an- swer to the question, Are you in favor of a constitutional convention?"

Mrs. Thurston's Death.

In The Age-Herald on Sunday last was printed a special dispatch from Havana signed by Mrs. Thurston, wife of Senator John M. Thurston, of Nebraska, describing the scenes of the suffering caused by the terrible famine which has prevailed there the result of the most un-Christian-llke warfare ever waged against liberty seek ing people, which has been Spains method of suppressing the rebellion. In her dis patch Mrs. Thurston made most pathetic appeal to the mothers of America for aid for the starving children of the famine stricken island. Her dispatch was elo- quence itself It was the last thing she ever wrote. In the dispatches from Ha- vana last night was brought the sad in telligence of the sudden and unexpected death of Mrs. Thurston, who, with her husband and others, had gone to Cuba to see for themselves the condition of affairs and the sufferings of the people about whom she so eloquently wrote. Mrs. Thurston was one of the brightest intel lects among the ladies in official life at Washington, and had through the ladies Cuban league, of which she was member, done much to send charity to those in Cuba, who so richly deserved it.

costs him 8 cents a bushel, thus bringing the cost of a. barrel of flour down to s4o4 giving the adulterator an advantage of C4 cents barrel over the pure-nour miller.
 The other loser is the consumer. One hundred and ninety-six pounds of wheat flour will make 2SO pounds of bread, while 196 pounds of spiked flour will make only 225 pounds of bread. The straight wheat flour bread is better in every respect. It will retain moisture longer, and is palata- ble several days. Bread made from spiked flour becomes hard in half of an hour after baking. The consumer thus suffers from the rascally mixture as much as the honest miller does.
 Tennessee at least is becoming fully aware of the nature and extent of this swindle of dishonest millers and middle men; and the men who are engaged in 1t in the state will probably have to turn their attention to some other swindle, and the rascals in the northwest will have to look for some other market. The southern con sumers that they have fattened upon are in revolt

The Suffrage Issue.

The Louisiana constitutional convention has practically before it an educational and property and an old-soldier qualification, for the proposition in relation to voters on Jan. 1, 1868, is really in the interest of the veterans of the civil war, whether they belonged to the confederate or the union army. The other propositions relate to small numbers of voters peculiar to Louis- iana- The Italians of New Orleans and the Creoles and Acadians of central and south western Louisiana call for special treat ment, especially the Acadians. The head of a family among the last named holds the land, no matter how long he lives, and he generally does live to a great age, and his numerous sons would be disfranchised during a portion of their lives if some pro- vision were not made in their behalf. They are illiterate chiefly because they speak ragged dialect In order to learn to read and write they must first learn either French or English. No school teaches their dialect. So 1t happens that the Louis- lana suffrage clauses have some odd pro- visions.
 But outside of special populations exist proposition simply says that the suffragans proposition simply says that the suffrages of the state shall be those who can read or write, and also those who pay taxes on $500 of property, and also the veterans of the confederate and union service. They are bravely and faithfully endeavoring to eliminate, not only the unintelligent, but all fraud and trickery. the one being as aemoralizing and indefensble as the other. The chief unsettled issue relates to a poll tax, as preliminary qualification for vot- Ing. The people of Mississippi and South Carolina say it works well, and is a neces- sary factor in securing a satisfactory and responsible electorate.
 In Alabama there is clearly no need to go beyond educational and property and soldier qualifications. They are altogether sufficient to insure to the state honest cleo
