A GOOD RULING:
Matter of EXcusing Jurors
 A Suggestion.

Judge Davis has made an order that all jurors who are oIrosed to capital punishment Or have con- sciencious scruples against inflic,ing the death penalty in murder cases, are excused from further service dur ing this term Of court. This order is made in view Of the fact that there are some eight mnrier cases t. be tried and as all such jurors would be disqualified from ac,ing, their re- lease from further service will save quite an expense to the county. The ruling is n good ono. As thi, is valid excuse from further service as juror Il might not be bad idea, and indeed a further economic move, 10 examine the entire l2G trial jurors at ore time and excuse all who cannot serve on the above ground, instead of disniss- ing them ss examined when called on each murder case.

A CHANCE FOR RELIEF

From the Plttsburg Dispatch, Rep.
 Apparently Secretary Alger intends to tempt fate by entering into a contest with McMillan for the seat of the latter In he United States senate. It is reported In this connection that he actually contemplates restgnang from he cabinet to devote his attention to piia contest, including the pub lication of Senator McNdfilan's priva te cor respondence. There is no great amount of evidence that Senator McBallan Is partic- ularly popular in Michigan. but there are reasons for believing that he is more pop ular than Alger, and that a contest be- tween the two Will result in handsome majority for the senator. But be that as 1t may, the country at large stands to be the galner from the preliminary stages of the campalgn-if only Alger holds to his purpose to quit the cabinet. He has been in the war department at least two years too long already. If he will quit, now, a patient people will be willing to take the chance of having him inflicted upon the senate.

SHE IMPORTS COFFEE.
The Very Unusual Business of a New York
 Woman.

From the New York Evening Post.
 Coffee importing is rather a new occupa- tion for women, but at least one in New York is engaged in it. She makes a spe- cialty of Porto Rican coffee. which con- noisseurs claim is one of the best brands. With the feminine eye for effect, she puts up her pound parcels in such dainty fash ion that customers who drive to her room in a fashionable up town building do not at all disdain to carry the parcel >away with them. My personal fondness for coffee,' she said recently, 'ls, think, what first attracted me to this business. I was constantly experimenting to get my own cup of the best quality, and I found there was still good deal for housekeepers to learn in this matter. To begin with, I sell no ground coffee, the use of the whole bean being a large factor In securing the best liquid. I find that many housekeepers do not understand that black or after dn- ner coffee should be made from a specially prepared variety know as cafe noir To make it simply an extra strong brew of breakfast coffee is not making cafe noir. At any high class grocer's the proper brand may be procured. I sell it in one pound tins It Is a high roast coffee and the beans are darker and more oily than those of the breakfast coffee. The matter of mixing chicory with coffee is, perhaps, to persons who ask for coffee without chicory do not get it. A housekeeper who suspects the presence of chicory may de- termine it's presence by a careful inspection Of the grounds. The chicory after cooking Is easily discernible among the coffee grounds. l do not sell chicory, but if any ere wants it, it woLld be better to buy it separately and add what proportion is de- sired to tho coffee at each marking. To my mind, the best way to prepare the breakfast coffee is to use a little porcelain biggan, the coffee being put in the upper vessel. This should be put over the alcohol lamp to be brought to boil, but not be- yond. Hot milk, a dash of cream and loaf sugar complete the necessities for a cup of fine coffee"

their own benehciaries. The modern trust proposes to get all needful raw material by the shortest "cuts' at the lowest possible prices. while it in the long run puts prices upon it's finished products close up to the tariff mark. In carrying out this scheme it will crush all individual producers. mid dlemen and merchants that are in it's way, and 1t must carry the crushing process to a heartless and distressing length, because it's own capitalizat on is so immense that immense profits must be secured regardless of consequences.
 All see what the trusts are preparing to do, but all do not see that the entire trust scheme is dependent upon the Mckinley tariff schedule. It is well enough to meet and fight back the trusts as much as possi- ble but if the country is to be relieved of these monsters of finance and greed it must come through the adoption of reve- nue tariff instead of the present tariff, which was planned by the few for the rob bery of the many.
 The present prevalent trust conspiracy is directed alike against producers of raw materials and consumers of goods, and it will prove also to be directed against labor, for the time will come when profits on wa tered stocks and bonds cannot be secured except by squeezing all-producers, labor and consumers. The trusts know what is coming. They krow the American people will not be led like sheep to the slaughter. They know there will be kicking of a very vigorous sort, but they know what they can secure from the republican party by the slush-fund route. They know that the robber tariff can be maintained intact through that party, and that is about all they want.

MIR. M'KINLEY's STYLISH VEHICLE

Washington Cor. of Chicago Tribune,
 President Mckinley has purchased a new trap, which he used today for the first time. It is a fashionable rig and up to date in every respect, including rubber tires, and is the smartest affair yet owned by the chief executive. It is a swell trap, with high body, having one seat in, front which will accommodate two persons, and in the rear is single seat for the footman. This stylish vehicle was used this afternoon when the president and Mrs. Mckinley went driving. The president handled the rio- bons himself, as the trap was purchased with view of giving the chief executive much needed exercise, which he certainly gets in driving his span of high-spirlted blacks.
 The president is horseman of no mean ability, and the graceful way in whica he handled the lines attracted the attention and admiration of the many pedestrians who were on the streets. President McKin- ley has had considerable experience in the management of horses, as during the war hls duties frequently placed him in the sad de. During his first few months in the white house he frequently went horseback riding, but was compelled to give up this sort of recreation on account of the pres- sure of public business President McKin- leys physician has ordered him to take considerable exercise. and it will be a com mon occurrence in the future to see the president dashing about the suburbs of Washington in his swell rig behind a pair of high-spirited blacks. (which the president secured with much difficulty after having several broken down horses pamed off on him.
 The president will also indulge in another form of exercise by direction of his physi- clans, which he started upon today. It will be to walk at least an hour each day, and, while he may not find it convenient to op- pear on the streets, the grounds in the iear of the mansion will be used for this pur- pose. After the president attended church this morning he spent an hour climbing the hills In the grounds, which are exceedingly pretty at this time of the year, and which not only give him physical exercise, but are artistic.

The Monroe Doctrine at The Hague.

Although Persia and Siam and Servia and many other small countries were in- vi.ed 10 send delegates to the peace con- ference, yet no country in the western hemisphere except the United States was asked by Holland, speaking for Russia, to and Greece courted. Argentine, Chill and Brazil, all considerable countries, alike in population and products, were disregarded, while Portugal, Montenegro and Bulgaria were placed in the list.
 The line. it is claimed. was drawn at complete independence. It is claimed that the enforcement of the Monroe doctrine renders all the other American republics dependent states; but this is not a true and just explanation of the discourtesy to the American republics. For Persia is not wholly independent of the Sultan of Tur- key; certainly Bulgaria is not, and Greece's independence does not extend to financial affairs. -One-half of the countries repre- scented at The Hague are not in the fullest sense of the word independent.
 The czar has. however, practically recog- nized the Monroe doctrine; and If arbitra- tion become the rule, it follows that the United States will be compelled to resist European aggression in other American states in the international court only. This will materially change the nature of the famous doctrine. It is doubtful indeed whether the effect Of arbitration upon the suzerainty of the United States in the Americas has been fully thought out, d. though as a rule disputes between an American republic and a European govern ment can be settled by arbitration Tho boundary between British Guiana and Venezuela is in course of settlement in that way. The duty of the United States would under the proposed programme chiefly con sist in bringing such issues before the in- ternational court Whether the Monroe doctrine in all its yirility can be preserved in that way is an open question.

The Griffin Whitecap Movement.

The race troubles in Georgia are peculiar, and the Griffin developments indicate state of things that had not been made public. It was not known that negroes were employed as operatives in any cotton mill in Georgia or Alabama Griffin is a chief town between Atlanta and Macon, on the Central of Georgia railroad, about equi-distant from the two cities named It has long been a storm center in race mat ters.
 There are two cotton mills in Grifin-the "llncaid" and the "Griffln"-and the fact that negro operatives are employed in the former has not been widely published, if at all. As nearly as can be judged from re- ports received both races are employed in the KIncaid mill. This is plan that has never been deemed advisable in the Caro- lima mills. In a mill in Charleston and in another at Concord, North Carolina, negro. labor is exclusively employed, but in no mill in either state do the races work side by side at looms or spindles. If different methods have been employed in the Kin caid mills trouble has simply been invited, for a cotton mill cannot be half white and half black; it must be filled with opera tiyes of one race or the other. This seems to be the sum of experience of all who have had actual acquaintance with the handling of cotton mill labor.
 But the unwise policy of the Kincaid mill does not justify the practices of the "Laborers' Union Band" The Band has assumed a very large contract when it un- dertakes to drive ten millions of negroes out of the country. It's jurisdiction scarce ly extends so far. The regulation of labor affairs in Griffin will be found to be job quite up to the capacity of the new Band and even the members of the Band will have the Griffin Rifles and Governor Cand- Ter to deal with. The members of the Band are described as being to a large extent boys under age. Boys of any age are not the proper persons to settle race questions They should be rigidly excluded from the consideration and treatment of such ques- tions. The friction and passion that go with such questions call for the best and coolest judgment in community, and all boys under age should be compelled to fall in behind their seniors when race issues are presented. The Griffin situation is full of difficulty and dangers, and the action of Governor Candler is timely, and will doubt less prove to be effective in suppressing farther trouble in that quarter of the state.

THE GOVERNORS THIRD TERM

HTOm the M0bale Register.
 Our friend Stallings Is a prema ture flower. He is the crocus-a big, bold vel low thing, taking a determined stand and looking as if it were going to stay out t9le season, but the frost nips that sort, and gives it reproof. Stalnngs is out for gov ern'or, to succeed Johnston: but if there is any virtue in signs Johnston will be his own successor-or try to be.
 It is this way, and this way is it. as Dooley says: Our friend Johnston wants to be senator and sit in the seat of the scornful at Washington. He is not going there by any means of the love, veneration and affection of the people of Alabama, 2s represented by the general assembly. Johnston does not make people love him. He does not try. He proposes to drive. He has a big bull whip. called public pat ronage. and he lashes it about him with such vim that he has the office-holdlng and office-gedting class "all in trouble" and hardly daring to call their souls their own. If he can keep this up until the time to elect a successor to Morgan, he has reasonable chance to be elected senator in Morgan's place. If he cannot, he is done for.
 It is well recognized that the power he Nlc4uS IS uue lO LiS possession or the O1lce of governor It is said that never has a man stepped from the governorship of Ala bama to the United States senatorship. It can be said also that never has there been q governor in Alabama like the Hon. Jo- Se2h F. Johnston. He will probably be the exception to the rule-provided he is in the governors office when he goes to do tAe stepping. Outside the office, however, he would have no more influence oyer the surrounding forces than a pound of ice in hades. Therefore. we are of the opinion that he will seek the office of governor for the third term.
 Some say he will get Stalllngs elected governor and trust to Morgan or Pettus dying and to Stalllngs appointing ham to fih the vacancy. TlIat would be a long draft on trust. We do not believe the gov ernor is ready to put himself into Sta1lings' power to that extent He would be foolish to do so, and we can state for the governor that in the multitude of characteristics possessed by him, foolishness is not one,
