The Third Term Cyclone.

The Age-Herald regrets to learn from the
esteemed Montgomery Journal that a COM
binatlon of circumstances may lead to
rushing OF Governor Johnston into a third
term movement against his will. Protest
and kick as he may, and as he doubtless
win, the people are, it seems, about to rush
him into anaother term. The people may
not know this-that is, the people in the
back counties, but it is known in the jour-
nal office, and generally perhaps in Mont
gomery. In the Journal office at least.
A rape of governor would not be
right. The people should not rush him
against his own will, not to mention prec-
edent, into another term. They should at
least consult him. They should let him
at least have an mixing of the great and
overwhelming movement; and we are sat
isfied the people outside of the Journal
office will be that considerable.
The repealists, whom the Journal calls
democrats, want "a strong man, a superb
leader, a splendid organizer, and a vgor-
Gus, aggressive fighter" They indeed do,
and so they are, says the Journal, about to
rush Governor Johnston headlong into a
third term. combination of circum-
stances is about to seize him. He is him
self powerless. He is not at all DESTROYS
of a third term. 1t is the people who are
silently, mysteriously moving. The people
may not know this, but the esteemed Jour
nal knows it, and that is quite enough.
The Journal more than intimates that the
people will speak at the proper time and
it is itself speaking ahead of the proper
time. 1t is the avant courier the advance
agent, of the proper time. 1t has had its
ear to the ground and it knows what the
people-not the democrats-but the people
are about to do. This is important-this
foreknowledge of popular action. We are
assured by the esteemed Journal that it
is to be an overwhelming stampede when
1t does come, carrying Governor Johnston
quite off his feet. Where it will land "Our
Jess has not been stated. He does not
seem to be in the running, but when ava
lanches come all must stand outside or be
crushed. Governor Johnston cannot be
crushed, because he is to ride bareback

From the Mobile Herald.
Governor Johnston gives his views on the
subject of negro suffrage in Alabama in the
columns of the last issue of the New York
Independent. Here Is an extract from these
views: Now the laws Of Alabama confer
unlimited suffrage upon all men, and
though we have had no trouble for long
time on account of the suppression Of the
negro vote, there were many white men
who believed that the law should be al
tered and the negro deprived of his vote
by means of provisions that would diScrm-
mate against him, such as that the voter
must be able to read ana write, or be able
to interpret portion of the state consti-
tuition, or answer questions in regard to
the same which could be made easy or very
difficult, according to the desire of those
asking the questions, or that there should
be a property qualification"
1t will be seen that the governor can
not conceal his opposition to any revision
of the constitution. The above statement
is not a fair one, for it entirely omits one
of the chief reasons why the white people
of Alabama desire a change in the consti-
tutional requirements for suffrage. That
reason Is that the illegal suppression of
the negro vote in certain parts of the
state has thoroughly demoralzed politics,
and that it is much better to deprive ig-
too, of the right to vote, than to continue
practices that were only made excusable
by the dire need of the reconstruction pc
Rod and are only excusable now In COM
munities that still feel the effect of the
reconstruction period.
The governor proceeds to give the John
ston side of the calling of the constitutional
convention, and of the repeal of the call.
He must have forgotten that he was not
writing for home consumption when he
says: "Quite a number of gentlemen
who had bolted the democratic ticket in the
last national election were nominated as
candidates but little interest having been
taken in the primaries, and it was ap-
pretended that this element would have
controlled the convention" The New York
reader will, no doubt, wonder what the
last national election had to do with a new
constitution for Alabama, or the question
of suffrage qualification. What the gov
ernor should have said was that he saw
that he could not control the convention,
and therefore did not wish one held. Even
In an article in a New York paper the
governor cannot refrain from playing the
part of special pleader

GOV. JOHNSTON IN ILL HUMoR

From the Athens Courier.
Governor Johnston seems to be in an i'll
humor with the state generally. From mis-
words and actions we judge him to think
the editors liars, the college professors
ounces, the legislature. without a mind, the
democratic executive committee unworthy
of respect, and Senator Morgan a man for
him to hurl from power. Jealous Frog
Johnston is swelling alarmingly.

PadereMski's Hair Joke

Munsey's Magazine for June has printed
a letter which Paderewski wrote to a
prominent society woman of Chicago in
answer to a request for a lock of hair. The
great pianist complied with the request, but
it may be doubted If the receiver of the
lock of hair was quite satisfied after all.
The letter well tells the rest of the story.
1t was written by Paderewskfs secretary
from dictation, and is as follows
Dear Madam-M. Paderewski directs me
to say that it affords him much pleasure
to comply with your request. You fail to
specify whose hair you desire, and to avoid
error he has secured a sample each of the
staff en- voyage-to wit, his manager, his
secretary, his valet, his two cooks and his
waiter, together with small portions from
a cat and from a mattress belonging to
M Pullman, proprietaire OF the coach de
luxe which we occupy. l have the honor
to be your obedient servant"

Rostand, the author of "Cyrano de

long since a critic said: "In respect to dra-
matte situations think Dumas the elder,
has considerable advantage over you"
yes" replied Rostand, there is no doubt
about it; but that is insignificant compared
to another advantage he possesses"
What is that, monsieur WHY, all his
contemporary critics are dead"
