CURRENT TOPICS.

The Birmingham Age Herald says:
IAN illustration Of the scarcity Of COM
mon labor in this district was evidenced
yesterday at noon when only twenty ne
groes out Of desired hundred were ship
ped from here TO points in Kansas over
the Kansas city, Memphis and Birming-
ham railroad. Labor agents from that
territory have been here for nearly two
weeks and succeeded with moving an
initial shipment of only about one-ffth
of what is really a small order.
AT nearly every mine in the district
more miners are wanted and the opera
tors find 1t exceedingly difficult 10 keep
a fun force Of men at work all the time.
This. however. is equally true OF the more
common class Of labor. Men are con-
stantly at work in and around Birming-
ham working up men for all kinds Of
work and only yesterday one labor man
said he could place 1000 men tomorrow
If he had them"

THE SOUTH AND EXPANSION.

talns an editorial article on the CORES
pondonce between The cotton manufactur-
ers OF South Carolina and their repre-
sentatives in Congress. and agrees with
The Times that the correspondence Is one
Of the most interesting and significant
publications of the day.
The Post c0mmends the South Carolina
manufacturers for the steps which they
have taken to guard their trade interests

tcncy in pleading for national protection
I'm one breath and i'm the next breath pro-

they admit. IS expanding the commerce

and the Post does not wonder that Sem

and rebukcs their transparent humbus.
The Post is right These South Caro-
lima manufacturers have as surely de-
clared for expansion as the Florida Leg
isiature declared for protection when it
asked for prohibitory tarln on foreign
cotton.
The Times is opposed to imperialism
and has so declared itself time and again.
But the Philippine question IS am exceed
inglv practical question, and it must be
dealt with in "a practical and business
like way. We must subdue the insurrec-
ton. we must establish peace and order
and good government and when that
has been done then there will be a demand
from an parts of this country that We

Hon. John Young Brown independent
Democratic candidate for Governor i'm

questions TO Hon William j. Bryan when
the latter appeared on the platform in
Louisville last Wednesday. IIe called Mr..
Bryaus attention TO the irregularities Of
the convention which nominated Goobel,
asked him If ne did not think that the
methods adopted by the Goebel forces
were a, menace 10 free government, and,
finally whether or not Mr. Bryan was
I'm favor of the Goebel election law.
Mr. Bryan did not answer Mr.. Browns
questions frankly, but lodged the whole
business by saying that he did not come
to Kentucky to sit in Judgment on any
convention. cid not come 20 discuss the
details OF an election law, but 20 say
II there was anything done in that con-
verlion that theDemocrats did not ike,

nee.
Yet in 1896. prior TO his nomination, Mr..
Bryan wrote an editorial for the Omaha
World-Herald. i'm which he said:
The World-Herald holds that the indi
vidual member of a party at an times
reserves the right to vote against

party entirely whenever i'm his JUDGMENT

may abandon the party temporarily. as,
for instance. when am unfit candidate

that newspapers ana speakers discuss
the character of candidates and point out
their fitness or unhtness.
And again he used this language:

would support the nominee, 1 said, as you
viii remember. Under no circumstances
will my vote be given TO man who
