RooseveIt's Affidavits.

The efforts of Colonel Roosevelt to dodge tax levies upon personal property have got ten him into a tangle that is absolutely in applicable, and inconsistent either with common honesty or common sanity. He swore in March last that he did not reside in New York city and that he did reside in Washington, D. c. In August last he used in sworn application to the assessors of Oyster Bay, Long Island, these words: "I reside and vote in New York city"
 He paid no taxes on personal property in Oyster Bay, in New York city, or in Wash ington. These are the facts, and if the re- pubicans of New York are ready to indorse such free swearing and tax-dodging as these affidavits disclose, they must be of the kind that strain at gnat and swallow a camel
 Alabama has plenty of tax-dodgers, but they do not go about swearing to inconsst- encies Their stories may be tough when tried by a high standard, but they are pretty certain to be consistent. They do not convict themselves. Colonel Roosevelt has certainly made a case against himself.

Sow Wheat.

The wheat-sowing season is near at hand, and the Rome (Ga.) Tribune, advises its farming friends to SOW wheat. And it sends out this advice in very sensible manner. It says at the outset that cotton is the great money-getting crop-the very best crop of that kind that can be raised in the south; but wheat is also money crop. It is a crop that is easily marketed and that always commands cash ''If, it adds, instead of planting all cotton our farmers would plant half the ground in wheat 1t would pay much better. The cultivation of the two does not materially conflict. The true policy to follow is un- doubtedly for the south to produce all the cotton that can be produced as a surplus crop. Farmers should produce their sup plies at home as much as possible, and consequently, devote a ortion of their time and acreage to food crops. In that way. cotton could be grown very cheaply, and would be profitable even at the low prices which have ruled for more than a year past"
 The North Alabama farmers very freely pursued this policy last fall, and there is probably not one of them who regrets that he did so. An extension of the plan this fall is very desirable; and The Age Herald expresses the hope that North Ala bama will SOW enough wheat this fall to make a crop equal to the wants of the state That is the proper limit. The state can profitably raise it's own wheat. Il cannot perhaps proftably grow a surplus of wheat, but a sufficiency for home con. sumption wiuld prove desirable and in ev. cry way profitable.

Two Women Rulers.

The accession to power of the Empress Dowager Tsi An may mean very much or 1t may mean very litte-no one outside of China, or perhaps, few in it, know what it means She is supposed to be friend of Ii Hung Chang, who generally lands on his feet, and Ii is supposed to be a friend of Russia. Both are supposed to be opposed to the reform projects of the young emperor, who resigned or was deposed. The internal improvement schemes are perhaps to be held up also.
 As to how Russia and England, respect lively, stand in Pekin now, no one knows, although every one claims to know. Both powers are very alert, especially in dip lomatic way. A large British fleet is con- stantly maintained in Chinese waters, and Russia has no doubt considerable force at Port Arthur. They are rivals at Pekn, but which will come out ahead, and how the work will be accomplished, must, of course, be left to time; for it is very plain that no at present knows how matters stand in the F'lowery Kingdom
 But is it not a strange fact that at pres ent two-thirds of the world are ruled by two women? China is said to contain 402,- 690O00 people, and the British empire is known to hold 3S1 O37S4 more-in all, 7S3,- TITS people, There are about 100000, 900 in the rest of the world. Queen Victoria and the Empress Tsi An govern two-thirds of the people of the world, and the other rulers must be content with one-third of them. Queen Victoria's tact and good sense has carried her successfully through many a crisis and Tsi An, it is plain, has courage and will power enough to meet any sort of crisis that comes along.

Tie Fever in Mississippi.

The condition of Jackson and Taylor's and Orwood is practically unchanged. A con- siderable number of negroes have caught the infection at the three places, but no death of a negro from the disease has oc- cured.
 The tendency of detached sporadic cases in towns on the west side of the state is in- creasing; but the only infection centers are Lafayette county and the city of Jackson. Winona has a case of the disease but no town nearer than Winona to the Alabama line reports a case Columbus is well guarded against Winona, and if tht trains that pass through Columbus are closely scrutnized, it will be difficult to convey the infection eastward from Winona.

democratic, there is a feeling In all sec tions that the man of the hour for speaker is General Joe Wheeler. The new house will not contain moro popular man, or one whose services outrank those of the hero of Santiago. Nor will 1t contain a man who is better fitted to lead such an unruly body. Twenty years of service in congress has rendered him an adept in parliamentary practice. The Age-Herald unhesitatingly endorses the Montgomery Journals remarks in this connection:
 General Wheeler's extraordinary ad- ministratye ability his firmness, his strength of will and courage, coupled with his unequaled amiability and love of fair ble qualities which would make him an ideal speaker-a worthy successor to tine pied the most coveted chair but one in the republic. General Wheeler's election to the speakership would please everybody in the United States for he is everybody's hero and friend. He is the model American citi zen and all Americans are proud to claim him as compatrot. Let him be made speaker of the house of representatives, should the democrats obtain control of-the house in the forthcoming elections"

noisSON's TRIUMPH
from the Boston Post,

From the Boston Post.
 It is unquestionably to the skill and per sistence of Lieutenant Hobson that the Opited States will owe s1lch vessels as are saved from the sunken fleet of Admiral Cervera. Less than a month ago, after Hobson had been at work for some time on the Maria Teresa, the bureau chiefs of the navy department figured out failure and joined in a reconsideration to the sec retary that the work should be stopped. Fortunately, the chief of the bureau of construction believed in Hobson and ob- tained further time for him to prosecute the work. The result is niw seen, when the Maria Teresa is afioat and carrying the flag of the United States.
 There remain, of the four cruisers of Cervera's fleet, the Cristobal Colon, the A1mirante 0quendo and the Viscaya. The two latter are absolute wrecks, distorted beyond recovery by fire. The Colon sui fered less material inury in the fight being run ashore and sunk. Lieutenant Hob- son declares his ability to raise and float her off in reasonably good condition. Why should the deartment hesitate? If Hob- son succeeds, as he has succeeded with the Maria Teresa, the cost of the experiment. will be returned t@ the government many times over in the value of the cruiser as an addition to our navy
 But it stands Hobson's triumph is notable one. The technical skill in Volved in raising the Teresa is on a par with the valor displayed in sinking the Merrimac
