 In some counties where primaries have been held. the dispensary has figured to some extent. but in each instance was proven to be somewhat of a hot potato to the candidate favorng it and was not pressed. This was notably the case in Ma con county, and the successful candidate is not now very sure that dispensary was not a draw back to him, and is not as enthusi- astic about 1t it was thought he would he

Plague in Hawaii and Manila.

The appearance of the plague at both Ma nia and Honolulu will not decrease the burden of government at either place. At Honolulu the disease has appeared among the Chinese and it will be difficult to stamp it out because the Chinese cannot be depended upon to aid in the effort.
 The condition of Manila has been-im- proved, but the appearance of the disease within the walled city is full of danger. The conditions are favorable to it's exten- sion. state of war aggravates the sit- uation. Soldiers exhausted by long marches and the enervating climate may not -se able to resist the germs of the, d:-sase, ana thus pestilenee will be added to war
 - seems to be a disease that can with difficulty be stamped out. The first case in Honolulu occurred on November 10. Chinese bookkeeper contracted the disease. He died, and few days later there were four other cases, all of whom died. This led to the most thorough measures of re- pression. The schools were dismissed. and every other step taken that could prevent transmission of the disease. All thought the disease had been stamped out but af- ter an interval of three weeks three cases appeared. and again sanitary methods of the most searching sort have been insti- tuted No one feels sure that the germs can be destroyed among the Chinese and Japanese of the islands.
 In both cases the American people are en- dangered. Communication with both Ma nila and Honolulu is constant and frequent. Vessels are coming or going and If the dis ease becomes epidemic at either Honolulu the seeds of the disease out of this coun- try

HOW MAUsER BULLETS WOUND

From the London Mail.
 After seeing their wounds nearly all caused by gunshot. the onlooker is struck by the clean, wel-defned. small circular entrance and exit the Mauser bullet makes. It produces canal not much. if anything, larger shan a good-sized goose quill. and cuts it's way through flesh and bone as neatly as an areaimedean drill would, leaV- ing no ragged edges. It produces little To- cal disturbance or bad after effects. Hence shock 10 the system and subsequent septi- caemia are owing to the lessened destruc- tion of soft parts and spiintering of bone minlmized considerably. By careful anti septic treatment the wounds heal in about twenty to thirty days.
 The course which some of the Mauser bul- lets take without rupturlng important yes seis or producing dangerous effects is simply p2afvelous To cut through soft parts and follow the tracks made by these missiles without doing irreparable injury would tax the dexterity of the most skill ful and delicate anatomist that ever handled scalpel.
 An extraordinary case is that of a sol der Who was shot completely through the head the ,Mauser bullet entering the cranium on one side and emerging on the other. Not only is he living, but his wounds have healed without a check-A slightly restricted jaw movement, due to muscular paralysis, alone retarding his dis charge. In this instance the bullet entered just in front of the left ear, escaping the temporal artery, took a forward and some what downward cohrse along the floor of the skull piercing the right maxillary (cheek) and emerged below the eye on that side There results some facial disiigure- ment, but he sees. eats and sleeps wei. One may consider him lucky fellow in having exchanged the experience of cranlal perforaton by an old Brown Bess for that of d modern Mauser bullet.

THE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Coy. IOhnstOn's Rejoinder.

Governor Johnston has shown his skill as a ready letter writer. and he should keep his hand on his quill until he explains the matters presented in the alumni report. That report Is an official document of the state because the university is part Of Hhe state, and the alumni organization is an official part of the university. 1he gov ernor of the state was under no official re- sponstbility when he answered Senator Morgan's scorching arraignment, but he IS under moral, if not official. obligation to the people to answer the grave charges, or at least inferenees, that the alumin have formulated in connection with a hurried and secret sale of coal lands belonging to the people of the state through their State university.
 The manner in which that great trust was discharged, and the why's and where flores of the land sale, are much more inter estlng to the people of Alabama than are the International bank the Maritime Canal company, or the other subjects that Governor Johnston stands ready to discuss freely and abundantly. The people know very little about the International bank, and are even less concerned about it; they do want to know why options were granted on the peoples lands without consulting the other trustees of the university; why the sale was suddenly sprung -dfid secretly kept; why the school and university lands were sold at $12.50 an acre, when other nearby lands, containing less of the Pratt seam per acre. were sold at. the same time ito the same company at $i9.5o an acre.
 These matters are all within the knowl- edge of the governor of the state for he conducted and monopolized the negotia- tions; and now that his quill is shown to be ready, he should not delay an explana- tion of his frusteeshp. He should remem- ber that a trustee cannot discharge trust by pronouncing through his organs the trust itself aristocratic; for even the charge of arlstocracy does not absolye trustee from the faithful discharge of his duties. Governor Johnston owes it to the people to explain with fullness and explcltness ev- cry material fact bearing upon the report laid before the trustees or the university and practically acted upon and accepted by them

EXPANSION YEAR
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe.
 The year 1899 will long be remembered as a phenomenal one in our trade history. In all lines of production. with one or two minor exceptions. we have broken our own best records and distanced all previous achievements. It may indeed be called ex- pansion year.
 We said at the beginning of the discus sion of the matter of expansion that this country destined to expand in the in- evitable order of things Expansion is a fact rather than a theory, and the past year has amply demonstrated it. Here and there there may be a local exhibition of lax prudence, but in the country at large the steady march is forward. We have start ed 10 set the gauge for the coming century. and this year will show astonishing results.
 America is expanding and these are our preliminary expansion years. Our future is assured,

BROTHER BERTRAM CLAYTON

From the Washington Post.
 "A brother isn't of much assistance in aiding one to learn the ropes of congress. One must learn for himself.'' So says Rep resentative Bertram Tracy Clayton, of Brooklyn who is a younger brother of Representative Henry De Lamar Clayton of Eufaula, Ala. The Alabamian is five years the elder and has followed the law, while the Brooklyrite graduated from the Military academy'a at West Point served in the army for six years wtoh the Eleventh infantry. and then resigned to enter ousi- ness as a civil engineer. He is rather slen- der, but has clear blue eyes, d full, sandy coored beard, well trimmed, and converses conservatively, but frankly.
 ''I did not believe that the army offered a promising career for man in time of peace remarked Mr. Clayton, of Brook lyn, "and subsequent events have, I think, vindicated my judgment. During the Span ish war I went to Porto Rico as captain of Troop C, of the New York cavalry, and found some of my old classmates at West Point serving as. first lieutenants.'

Appointments are Comfortab ble

Twenty cents each per night is the charge for all the rooms except about seventy, for each of which the nightly rate is 30 cents. The 2O-cent rooms are small 1t is true, being but about five feet wide. The size is ample, because they are used mere
 ly for sleeping apartments. Reading
 smoking and writing rooms, as well as lavatories, are provided in other parts of the building. On the floor of each sleeping room is a rug. Each room has chair and a small closet. The bedstead is iron. and it is provided with a hair mattress, blank cts and a spread or covering. The 30- cent rooms are in the corners of the build ing and they are somewhat larger than the others These latter rooms each have two windows, supplied with outside air, while the cheaper compartments have one window each as a rule. All the rooms have electric lights. The lodgers are not permit ted to have the heavy baggage in the rooms Trunks and similar effects are cared for in the basement where there are individual locked storage compartments. Washstands are provided in the corridors on each floor. The plaster partition divid- ing the sleeping chambers stop IS inches below the ceilings There are wire grat- ings between their tops and the ceilings. This arrangement permits free and con- stant circulation of air, even when the windows are closed. because the ventila- ting machinery is always in operation.
