Trial of Alex Hill.

The quiet orderly progress of justice and
law in the case of the murderer of Mrs.
Hubbard in Bibb county before a special
term of the Bibb county circuit court, is
an object lesson to all the state 1t will
be remembered that Hills brother was
lynched, and there are very grave doubts
as to his guilt AT the most he was an
accomplice, as the act itself was committed
by Alex Hill The brother that was
lynched protested his innocence to the last,
and there are reasons for believeing that
the name of another innocent man was
added to Judge Lynchs long list.
But a mistake was made, whether the
man was guilty or innocent of murder,
and the good people of Bibb county are
atoning for that mistake by permitting the
professef guilty Alex Hill to be tried by
the circuit court. He has already been in
dicted by a special grand jury, and his trial
is set for tomorrow.
The legal steps are taken in an orderly
manner, and without undue haste, and
when the law has been fully executed in
the case it will stand as an example to
every community in the state. In a month
and six days the kidnappers of Baby Clarke
in New York were lodged in prison, sem
fenced to long terms. Just as speedy work
is NEEDED in the Alabama courts in criminal
cases, and perhaps the Alex Hill case in
Bibb county will point the way to speedy
procedure 1t will, at any rate, relieve Bibb
preceding lynching, and it may prove to
be the means of breaking up the lynching
habit

JOHN TYLER MORGAN

From the Athens Courier.
The Montgomery Journal refuses to be-
lieve" that Senator Morgan will come home
mingle with the people and address them
on timely topics. Now, the Courier, like
some other papers, commented on the news
item to that effect, which appeared in the
daily press, but did not start It. The Jour-
nal seems to see great evil in such step
by Senator Morgan, and speaks of him with
contempt The Courier sees in the matter
nothing improbable or lamentable. God
forefend that yenerated senator, the fame
of whose eloquence is woven and glitters
in the arras of half the years of her histo-
ry, should be hooted from Alabama by
mediocre band of selfish, scheming, rule-or-
ruin political gadfies. 1t will never be, if
the senator desires to be heard. When he
first appeared before the state, pfeSiden-
tial elector, in 1860, fired with southern de-
votion and gifted with remarkable powers
of eloquence, his fame soon spread through
out our borders. After his unselflsh and
gallant career as a soldier in the souths
heroic warfare for it's rights, these same
talents he used to lift his defeated people
from their downtrodden and disheartened
plight into the sunshine and prosperity OF
real and sovereign statehood. For many
years he has fought our battles in the
senate-resisted the monopolies, opposed
the robber barons, driven back the Trojan
Horse of Blair Bill Capitalization from the
very citadel of our Ilium, upheld the honor
of our state and shed upon her name in the
capitals of Europe the benignant glory of
a broad and enlightened craftsmanship, ex-
tended the hand of republican fraternity
and succor to defenseless Hawaii and dis
tracted Cuba, given bread to the starving,
liberty to the oppressed and to our country
a greater prosperity and wider spendor.
Ripe in experience, progressive in senti-
ment the old would hear him for the love
he won in other days, the gratitude they
needs must feel-the young for that-with
Abe true statesman's grasp of broadening
knowledge and ever keener prescience, ne
caAs guide them to the brighter future and
greater destiny that awaits them. The peo-
ple will welcome Senator Morgan whenever
he chooses to come among them, the Mont
gomery Journal to the contrary notwith-
standing.

Minnesota's New Primary Law.

Several states have excellent primary
laws, and all the rest feel the need of them,
but no state has gone as far as Minnesota
has, for she has absolutely abolished the
nominating convention device in her popu-
1ous counties. The blow is aimed at the
pestiferous boss. The people are trying to
recover their rights. The delegate conven-
tion, with all its deals and dickers and
trickery, is forbidden, and in its place is
set up legalized primary.
The Minnesota law names q primary day
before each election. Before primary day
it is the duty of the county or city auditor
to have tickets printed for each political
party that desires to place men in nominal
ton. Each aspirant files an affidavit with
the auditor stating his intentions. He must
also present a petition signed by at least
five per cent. of his party, and he must pay
the auditor a fee of ten dollars. His name
is then printed on the ballot of his party,
and each ballot is SO printed that advan-
tage of position is given to no one. The
primary is officially conducted throughout
under the rules that govern elections. On
the official ballot of an election are placed
the names of those who received the high
est votes in the primary.
The tendency of electoral reform, now
that the Australian ballot has been adopted,
is towards the adjustment of the detesta-
BILE delegate convention. All feel that it
promotes bossism, defeats the popular will,
and is not needful part of the nominating
machinery. Direct action by the largest
possible number of people is widely consid-
cred the only feasible remedy against boss
ism, and this is eminently true of states in
which nomination is equivalent to election,
because circumstances render more than
one white mans party unsafe, or at least
undesirable. In such states the nominating
machinery becomes all-important in public
affairs, and Alabama is one of such states.
The operation of the Minnesota law should
be closely watched in this state.

FUNSTON ON HIS WORK
From a Private Letter.

Il
1t was worth ten years of ordinary hum
drum existence to see those forty-five jay
hawlSers, after they had crossed the river
on RATS, drive a thousand or more we'll
armed men out of their elaborate intrench-
ments by firing into them from the rear.
And you should have heard them chaff and
jeer when the Goo-GooS turned on them at
800 yards range a Maxim gun, firing 1900
shots a minute. And you should have seen
that Maxim go out of business when our
fellows turned loose on it. If the chap who
worked that murderous machine had kept
his nerve better there would not have been
a dozen of US who would have gotten out
of the thing alive. On general principles
am not an eXpansionist but l believe that
since we were, by an unfortunate train of
circumstances, thrown into this thing, we
should stay with it to the bitter end and
rawhide these bullet-headed Asiatic ruff
fans until they yell for mercy. And after
the war l want a job of professor of Amer
lean history in Luzon University, when they
build it. And I'll warrant that the new gen.
Grafton of Filipinos will know better than
to get in the way of the band-wagon of
Anglo-SaXon progress and decency.

HARPER'S NEW EDITOR

From the Boston Herald.
IT is announced that Harper's Magazine
is to have a new editor in the person of
President Finley of Knox college, at Gales
burg, Ill. Why the change is made Is not
stated, but it may safely be assumed that
it is not because of dissatisfaction with the
present editor of this periodical, Har-
pers Magazine has been edited with con-
summate tact and good judgment, and it
would be difficult to point to any periodi-
cal the world has ever seen that has sur
pessed 1t in these respects 1t would be a
serious mistake to depart from the lines
on which it has been conducted, and we
are disposed to believe that in looking for
a successor to Mr. Henry M. Allen, the eff
fort of its sagacious publishers has been
to obtain the man best adapted to per-
petuate his editorial policy.

man discussing Charlton would use words
he would not use if he were discussing the
Kentucky convention. and it is thus plain
that the number of words used daily by
the average man bears a close relation to
the number of subjects he discusses in the
course of a day. The man who discusses no
special subjeets-whose life is devoted to
hum-drum and his occupation-probably
does not employ over 500 words, but the
newspaper reader, the man of general in
formation, undoubtedly uses twice that
number of words.
The subject is one that deies accuracy
but the everyday man who keeps up with
what is going on in the world, and yet who
is neither student nor pedant probably
uses words ranging from LOCO up to 1900.
The man whose vision and knowledge is
limitea to his round of daily duties can
readily "get along with 500 words, and
may go through many days without using
beyond leo words. But people who talk
much, including some women, cannot well
carry on conversation without using as
many as 900 words, with a tendency to
higher figures.

THE DESIRE OF NATIONS

By Edwin Markham
No, not as in that elder day
Comes now the King upon the human Way.
lie comes with power; His white unfriend-
ly face
Shines through the Social question of the
race,
He comes to frame the freedom of the
Law,
To touch these men of Earth
With feeling of life's oneness and its
worth,
A feeling of it's mystery and awe.
A feeling of it's mystery and awe.
And when He comes into the world gone
wrong,
He will rebuild her beauty with song.
To every heart He will it's own dream be;
One moon has many phantoms in the sea-
Out of the North the Norns will cry to
men,
Bladder the Beautiful has come againr'
The flutes of Greece will whisper from the
dead;
apollo has unveiled his sun-burnt head"
The stones of Thebes and Memphis will
find voice:
"Osiris, come; o tribes of time, rejoice!''
And Social Architects who build the state
Serving the Dream at citadel and gate,
VIII hail Him coming through the labor
hum,
And glad, quick cries will go from man to
man,
"Lo, He has come, our Christ, the Artisan
The King who loved the lilies, He has
comet
He will arrive, our Counselor and Chief,
And with bleak faces lighted up will come
The earth-worn mothers from their mar
tyrdom
To tell Him of their grief,
And glad tidngs caroling from aeld AnA
town
Will go to meet Him with the labor crown,
The newborn weaven of the heading
wheat,
And men will sit down at His sacred feet
And he will say-the King
Come, let us live the poetry we sing!'
And these, His burning words will break
the ban
Words that will grow to be,
On continent or sea,
The rallying cry of man.
He comes to make the long injustice right
Comes to push back the shadow of the
night,
The gray Tradition full of flint and flaw
Comes to wipe out the insults to the SOUL
The insults of the Few against the Whole,
The insults we make righteous with d
law.
Yea, He will bear the Safety of the State,
For in His still and rhythmic steps will be
The power and music of Alcyone,
Who holds the swift heavens in their
starry fate.
Yea, He will lay ON souls the power OF
Peace,
And send on Kingdoms torn the sense Of
More than the fire of Joy that burned on
Greece,
More than the light of Law that rose on
Rome.
