that William J. Sanford shall be Gov- ernor if he be physically capable, and if not then that William D. Jelks shall be Governor they will readily see where they stand. They stand in the way of the popu- lar will By their objections they are say ing 10 the people, You do not know what you want We will take care of you. We know what is best you do not You are pretty good fellows at times, but at pres ent you must stand back" The Senator from Tuskaloosa and the Senator from Tuskegee have taken this unenviable posi- tion, because there is no question as to what the popular will is.
 The two Senators named cannot afford to hold to the position they have unwittingly perhaps been thrust into. They cannot af- ford to assist in the overthrow of popular rule in this State. They can not afford to say that Alabama shall no longer have a republican form of government.

Jefferson Davis Birthday.

The anniversary day of the birth of Jeff ferson Davis falls on the third day of June, in the season of blossoms and fruitful sun shine-in the season, too, when no other observed holiday occurs in the South. The Age-Herald sees no reason therefore why the day should not become, as Re0resenta- tive Pettus proposes it shall legally be, holiday. The man who stood for the idea of state sovereignty in the South deserves to be remembered, wholly regardless of the fortune of the effort The cause for which he battled with every energy of his nature was the cause of the South, and the mere fact that it was lost in the tumult of bat tie does not render Jefferson Davis less representative or less worthy of remem- brance.
 It will hurt no one to give few hours of day in each June to a recollection of the heroic struggles of the war, and of the man who led them. It is not a matter that any American can say is unnatural and unpa- triotic It involves no want of patriotism in the Republic It reopens no old issues. MT. Pettus simply proposes a memorial and commemorative day in which tender ness and sympathy and loving thoughts will have place, and the Age-Herald hear tily seconds his efforts towards making the June day in question a State holiday
 The views of an individual on this subject which appeared in a news column of the Age-Herald yesterday have not the en- dorsement of this newspaper.

Objections in the Senate.

The Bulger and the Tunstan bills, both of which are needful in this emergency in order to carry the will of the people into effect, did not encounter any opposition in the House. but in the Senate Senator Thompson and Senator Johnson, of Tuska- loosa, stood ready to interpose objections to the reference of the bills to the commit tee on rules. It does not appear from re- ports received what the grounds of their objections were. Their opposition to the speedy passage of the two bills has not been stated, but the fact stands recorded that they are opposed to the speedy pass age of bill that facilitates the swearing in of the Governor-eloc: who is the choice of the people, and also to bill that makes it plain that the president Of the Senate shall serve as Governor in case of the disability of the Goyernor-elect The pres- idant of the Senate is the peoples second choice for the position, as the Governor elect is the peoples first choice. The two bills before the Senate simply aim to carry into effect these desires of the people.
 Not single objection of reasonable sort can be urged against either of them. Not one They aim to make straight the way for the will of the people.
 If objecting Senators will take in this proposition. namely. the people have said

SMITHS IN CONGRESS.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 It is a matter of course that all the Smiths in Congress were reelected. The whole five, Henry C., William A, and sam uel w, of Michigan; David H., of Ken lucky, and George w, of Illinois, will go back to Washington with comfortable ma jorities. John Walker Smith, of Maryland, was also elected to the present Congress, but he declined to take the seat because he was elected to the Governorship just before the beginning of the session. The vacancy has been filled by the election of w. II. Trebson, but Smiths desertion of the fam fly has been made good by the election of Walter l. Smith in Iowa. So there will be in the next Congress d round half dozen of Smiths, all good men and true and all Republicans but the Smith from Kentucky.

BRYAN WILL WRITE OF FIGHT.

Lincoln, Neb., Telegram to the Chicago
 Chronicle.
 II. H. Tammen, one of the proprietors of the Denver Post, said after discussing with MT. Bryan the proposition made him by the Denver Post, involving an editorial po- siton:
 MT. Bryan announced after deliberate residence was not agreeable to himself or family; that he had at no time contem- plated locating in Texas, as has been stated, and that the only suggestion along the line seriously considered was the Posts offer of an editorial position. However, he felt that the wishes of those friends who had sent him to Congress at the age of thirty years and loyalty had stood by him ever since should be regarded, and that in obedience thereto Lincoln would continue to be his home.
 He is by no means overwhelmed by his defeat and has agreed to speedily prepare an article on 'Bryan's Conclusions at the End of the Second Great Battle. He in- tends in the future as in the past to devote his time to letters, politics and lectures. He has endowed seventeen educational in- stitutions with money sufficient to annually purchase prizes for the best essays or ora tions on the subject of Civil Government

SHOCKS FASHIONABLE NEW YORK

N. Y Dispatch in Chicago Times Herald.
 The fact that the Prince of Wales does not crease his trousers, and that he has will be an awful shock to fashionable New York The startling news reached ns-e today. It did not come over the cable nor by word of mouth. It came in a more re- liable form-in that of photograph cf the prince, showing that his trousers are ab- solutely creaseless. It is not accidental either. Inspection of the photograph show that the trousers never were creased. Tna whole thing is deliberate. The prince has stopped sending his trousers to be pressed And he didn't tell New York society any thing about it. Men who have been going about New York for the past few months with trousers bagging at the knees and have been sneered at for their pains by the swell dressers'' are now fully vindicate There will be a scurrying tomorrow. by swell dressers'' to take the crease from their 'pants." This, a tailor says, can be done easily by soaking the garments for half an hour in the washtub and hanging them on the line to dry. When they are dry they. will look like those the prince wears in the picture. While the prince has gone back to unironed trousers, President Mckinley hasn't. The first gentleman of America has his dressed every morning by his private secretary or some one else 1 before he puts them on. The crease is a most emphatic one. It is made with a very heavy fiatiron wielded by a man with large biceps, who must work for many minutes developing the crease. It now de- wolves upon New York dudedom to say which leader it will follow-the prince or the President.

1RF oplY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
denomination of Senator Morgan.

for fifth Senatorial term is an event that vii! be recorded in the history of the State and nation This nomination., too, was unanimous. 1l5 of the 13S members of the Legislature being present in the caucus and voting for Alabamas senior Senator. Such an honor as five consecutive Senatorial terms never before came to citizen of the State, and perhaps never will, and the Age Herald feels impelled to mention 1t as an exceptional event in the States history
 Senator Morgan's speech before the cau- GUS shows in itself that the State has in him as d representative a very broad Amer iean. He is first and always an American, and he believes there cannot be too many states in the union He is not one of those timid souls who fear that every addition means destruction to all. He sees additional strength and safety in additions. While the Philippines may not soon become states, yet he proposes to hold them at least against other powers. He will find the best senti- ment of the State will uphold him in this position The Philippine problem is very difficult one; but the dash of American sea- men gave us the problem, and We cannot now shrk it. We must meet it as we best can. leaving results largely to time, which generally mends all.
 All will commend Senator Morgan's views as to the dangers of a huge untaxed na- tional debt; and all hands and hearts will go out to him in the struggle he is about to make to pass the Nicaragua bill He sees obstacles ahead, as well he may; but his faith Tn the early construction of the canal is firm. and he sees in it great blessings for this section of the country-blessings so great that it will make the south the chief field of the activities of the new century.
 The Legislature honored Itself and the State when it took steps to return Sem ator Morgan to his great tasks No state has in the Senate man more honored and respected than Alabama has; and it al- saost makes one shudder to think that the proposition of dispensing with his serv- ices was entertained even for moment.

AUTUMN GLEE.

By Samuel Minturn Peck 'Tis all a myth that autumn grieves, For watch the rain amid the leaves; With silver fingers dimly seen It makes each leaf q tamborine. And swings and leaps with elin mirth To kiss the brow of mother earth; Or, laughing, mid the trembling grass II mods a greeting as you pass. Oh, hear the rain amid the leaves lis all d myth that autumn grieves 'Tis all g myth that autumn grieves, For list the wind among the leaves; Far swceter than the breath of May, Or storied scents of oi1 Cathay. It blends the perfume rare and good Of spicy pine and hickory wood; And with voice as gray as rime, It rrates of rified mint and thyme. Oh scent the wind among the sheaves-- lis all a myth that autumn erieves! Iris all 2, myth that autumn grieves-- Behold the wondrous web she Weaves.
