half of the century are Japan and Mexico. They have followed different lines, because of dissimilar circumstances, but the sue cess of both is beyond question. General Diaz has won his victories almost without bloodshed, for his Indian wars have been brief and not very bloody, and the upbuild- ing of his country has been more difficult because he had an inferior population Io deal with: and yet he has combined free dom with prosperity doubling the wealth and nearly doubling the population since the time he first became President. It Is a surprising case, and the hope is that the country will be fully capable of self-gov- ernment when Diaz is no longer able to direct the affairs.

Hf 0HIY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
ParamountcY is Not an Issue.

All issues presented in the Kansas City platform are equally binding upon all Dem ocrats, and the belief that Democrat can select one or more paramount and re- ject or neglect the rest Is a mistake. Ev- cry plank of the platform is Democratic and every Democrat should accept and stand on each and every one.
 The paramount issue really grows more out of the desire to ignore other blanks in the platform than upon the incidental with imperialism The dangers of change in the nature of the government are not overstated in the platform, but those dan gers do not authorize any one to respect the less the other doctrines of the party. The truth is, the current talk is mislead- ing, and Is used by those who propose to ignore and finally to reject other blanks. This will not do, and will not be permitted. The Democrat true and tried, is he who accepts the platform and plants himself firmly upon it.
 
 the Republicans, who are working the rack ct to suit their various views and pur- poses. They are selecting the issue they desire to have paramount, and if the Dem- ocrats hold to the entire platform of the party they will soon what subjects stand first in the popular mind. The peo- pie have a way of selecting their own par or more as such, the selection gives Dem- ocrats no excuse for neglecting or denying any portion of the platform of the party. It was made to stand on and swear by. It was made to be put into the ballot box. Less paramountcy and more general SUD- port of the platform are needed.

Price of Suqar.

In the face of the campaign the Sugar Trust, we'll intrenched behind the DingleX tariff, has not hesitated to. advance sugar eight times iH~two months, thus taxing the-country forty millions of dollars, and there is no help for it. No such robbery England, and the sole responsibility for the extortions practiced by the Sugar Trust rest upon the authors and sup porters of the Dingley infamy.
 The man who votes for or sustains the Republican ticket this year deserves to be robbed by the Sugar Trust He will be at any rate, whether he deserves to be or not, for the trust controls all competitors in this country, and foreign refineries are shut out by the Dingey tariff, which was shaped to suit the Sugar Trust in return for campaign subscriptions present and to come.
 This is oligarchial rule, pure and sim ple, and there Is no help for it except through the election of Bryan and Steven son There is nothing to prevent eight more raises in the next two months, and it is more than likely that they will come. At any rate, whatever profits the Sugar Trust may desire it is at liberty to take, and it will probably take It is free to exploit the country not only up to the tariff limit, but beyond it, for foreign re- finer will not send goods here when the Sugar Trust can undersell him.
 By the consent and with the conniyance of the managers of the Republican party, the Sugar Trust is now taxing the people fully $2OO, 900 year above reasonable profits, and it now stands far above the tariff f-protected Carnegie concern, and along side the Standard Oil. All three are pets of Dingleyism and Republicansm and all three take from the people each year, above reasonable profits, about enough to maintain the government. If | this is not an object lesson to the voters it<is difficult to see what would be.

BRYAN AND STEVENSON CLUB

From the Mobile Register.
 The preliminary organization was eff fected yesterday of the Bryan and Steven son Democratic Club of Mobile, and steps will be taken to enroll large membership. Mobile intends to show that although the election will go all one way in Alabama, the Democrats here understand the vital issues involved in this campaign and are taking deep interest in the success of the party. The South, more than any part of the Union, is concerned in the effort the party is making to defeat the Republicans in their design to change the character of the Republic; and although it may be cer- tain that these Southern States will vote the right way, it is nevertheless much to be desired that we show to the doubtful States in the North that we value the struggle the Democrats there are making, and send them our encouragement. This we do by making the campaign something more than a silent voting with our party.

EMPRESS DowAGER OF CHINA

From the London Chronicle.
 Tsi-Hsi is the Catherine de Medici of China, steeped as deeply in secret murder as ever was that vicious Italian royal per- sonage. For her shocking crimes alone she merits deposition and incarceration for the rest of her life. She should be deported to Penang or to Borneo. The instant Pekin is captured her person should be seized, un- less she takes refuge, as it has long been hinted she intended to do when the final catastrophe came, under Russian protec- tion The corrupt and cruel palace cique should be deporte3 with her. Ts-Hsi be- trayed her country in the Jccanese war. Enormous sums of money intended Yer armament of the navy and army were di- verted by her and squandered on her own pleasures. When Ii Hung Chang received the lions share of the enormous sum, rass to amount to nearly f4.000.000 needed quite as much as her troops and ships to secure the success of her plans, Tsi-Hsi received enormous sums in presents from I.i Hung Chang. She is not an imperial widow. She has no right to hold the reign of power. Foreigners will not be safe in China while she is at large. It is the duty of the Brit ish government whose subjects have been, not once nor twice, but thrice now mur- dered by her tools, to declare that, she shall be removed to a safe place where she can do no more harm Her record of crime and dangerous mischief has exceetleds the limits of the patience of powers of civili- zation! Let her follow King Bomba, the Mahdi, and the late tyrant of Abyssinia into oblivion.

ADVOCATED PROHIBITION
Heated Discussion in Young Peoples
 Christian Union Meeting

Atlanta, Ga., July 13.-A heated discus sion was precipitated in the third days ses- sion of the Young Peoples Christian Union of the Universalist Church today by the introduction of a resolution against the liquor traffic.
 The resolution imposed total abstinence on the members of the Union and enlisted their efforts to secure laws, both municipal and national, that would prohibit the man. ufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage.
 Rev F. w. Perkins, of Connecticut, pro- tested that the resolution was a restraint on the liberty of individual action.
 Rev A. c. Grier of Racine, Wis, made an impassioned speech in favor of the res- olution. It was defeated by a majority of 26 votes.
 The report of the committee on official reports and recommendatio was consid- cred at the business session. A recommen- dation looking to a closer union with the national organization of the whole Uni versalist church was adopted.
 Resolutions were adopted to have an an- nual offering for increasing what is known as the "Aunty" Brown fund for assisting divinity students in securing an education
 At the night session Miss Jennie Ellis, State President for Rhode Island presided An address on "Our Young People and Our Republic" was delivered by Rev. w. J. Taylar, of Maine. Rev. Lyman Ward of Alabama, spoke on Education, the Problem of Youth and Reform

Mexico is a Latin Exception.

Mexico continues to oyerturn Anglo Saxon theories General Diaz has been elected to a sixth term. These terms are four years each. His new term will begin on December l. He is in his 10th year, but he is so strong and rugged that he may live to fill out anoher term or two.
 And yet 80 per cent of the population of F, ,491, ,573 are of mixed or Indian races, and sixty-three languages are spoken. The persons of mixed or Indian race are, as a rule illiterate-the most of them unciviized Over third of the entire population con- sists of Indians. The whites, few in num- ber are Latins, coming originally from Spain. Here are none of the conditions that are supposed in Anglo-Saxon countries to make for law, order, peace and prosperi- ty, and yet Mexico Is enjoying all these, and has enjoyed them for a quarter of a century. Life and property are alike se- cure in that country. The elections are not exactly free in the sense that Ameri- can elections are and yet they do give public sentiment an opportunity of express sion, which is oftentimes used in the se- lection of officers below the Presidency. At times General Diaz himself has had op- position, but in the recent election he had none.

The Passing of a Coed Man.

The sincere regret which. ~est,ltS from the death Of Walter H. Mathews, the Demo- cratic nominee for State Auditor, is not confined to the political party of which he was a distinguished leader. All classes and creeds and factions of the Alabama public are the poorer and sadder because of his passing from the scenes of his great pub lie usefulness
 He was man whose friendship the best of men might boast proudly; leader whom the best of peoples might follow gladly.
 His life, gone out before its best was lived, was life of honesty and of honor; a light that burned ever steadily along the wide way of wisdom and integrity.
 Whilst he still felt much of the strength and the enthusiasm of youthful years, his people gave him the highest honor he had asked them to give; but before it's fuller fruitage had come his last commission called him elsewhither.
 Today there will be named another to take the dead mans place. May he be worthy!

MY MOTHER

As I gaze upon thy face so fair, They tender eye and lovely hair, My thoughts go back to childhood days, When thou didst guide my feet, my ways,
 Yes thou, my mother. And as gaze on thy mouth so sweet Where firmness and forgiveness meet, Where strength with gentleness entwined, Makes each complete, yet all combined
 In thee, my mother. Then think too and dream of thy voice, That made my childish heart rejoice, That even now like some sweet strain, EchoS again through heart and brain,
 Thy voice, my mother But best of all was thy life so true, That is leading me on till I too Shall rest with thee in that realm above, Where all is joy and peace and love,
 With thee, my mother.

 How HIlI Hesifated

to gamble 1t away on the race course. You said that, didn't you?'
 How Hill Hesitated
 'T never named you,' retorted Hill, des- perately, not liking the corner he was in
 ''But you meant me" replied Croker. Then putting the question directly; Do you intend to say, Hfl1 that you didn mean me when you made that speechY'
 It would have been wise and more manly took the shifty course.
 No" he answered with a bluster, '1 did not mean you. There are more people than you, Croker, who have race horses and who go to England"
 Croker surveyed Hill with mingled con tempt and wrath. Then he replied:
 And there are more people than you, Hill, who liars and too cowardly to stand for what they say"
 Since that hour croker has never ceased in relentless antagonism to Hill. He has never set eyes on Hill without verbally at- tacking him, and Murphy the peacemaker, half tranquility between them. However, the vendetta will not hurt Bryan, and Hill, master of nobody, couldn't injure the ticket If he tried, and probably doesn't care to try. And Croker, in supreme command. has pledged his word, and will turn over the very stones to win this State for Bryan. The more since 1t occurs to him that Hill will be the first to exult over Bryan s failure and attribute it to him (Croker) as it's cause

ENGLANL's TOY SOLDIERS

From the London Chronicle
 The British army-the army of lead and paint, whose battles are won not on the field, but on the nursery floor-is on the point of receiving an important addition to its strength. For many years past it has been made in Germany" with more or less success in the matter of coloring and accouterments, but, thanks to the in- ventive genius of a Frenchman who has lived nearly all his life in the metropolis, it will in future be made In London" The small commanders-n-chiefw will no longer have their patriotism affronted by the re- iection that their batteries and squadrons are mere foreign mercenaries.

aI-s CENT BATHS FOR "HELLo, CIR S Paris Letter to the London News


 M. Millerand has provided the lady tele- phonists of the central and Rue des Rem audes offices in Paris with hot and cold baths. He had been told long before he was a minister the trying effect on the nerves of telephoning many hours in the day. Since he entered office he has been himself accompanied by the post office doctor, to see whether things were as bad as had been represented. He found them worse. How to give relief to strained nerves the problem he submitted to a commission. The answer was shorter hours and the refreshment of bathing. The baths he has provided are not gratis A bath, hot or cold. costs three halfpence (21a cents) and the towels a halfpenny more. The minister hopes to endow the district post offices with bathing places for the lady telephonists.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

From the New York Press.
 Women mistake passion for love; men love for passion.
 There Is no cruelty like the cruelty of discovered deception.
 Men set the powder to blast women, S regulations, but it is other women who fire the blast.
 Great disappontments are not sent to teach one not to hope again, but to teach one to expect more disappointments.
 A man who has loved woman will de- fend her character against all the rest of the world when he will not defend it against himself.
