State Fair in November.

Everybody In the State of Alabama should appreciate the fact that President J. Nj. Falkner, who never yet has let an enterprise fail In his hands, proposes to gather the best possible exhibit of the States varied resources. He is not en- gagged in promoting betting or other gam bling enterprises. He proposes to present fair that will represent the best features of the State, instead of the worst.
 The fair is to be one that every honest man or woman can attend, and every one should do his or her utmost to promote it. The products of Alabama woods, Ala bama soil, Alabama mines and Alabama factories are to be represented and pre- sented as they never have been bfore. The mineral display will eclipse anything ever before attempted
 The farms of the State will not be behind the mines and mills of the State for Com missioner of Agriculture Poole and his as- slstants are actively and intelhgently at work with a determination to make the most notable farm display the State has ever known.
 Everybody then should prepare to come to the fair People should come from the extreme corners of the State, for railroad fares will be low. and the display will be satisfactory. Colonel Falkner pledges his word that the fair shall be worthy of the State, and that settles it. He will make his word good.
 The grounds are to be beautified, and the buildings increased in number and in the first ten days of November the State will put her best foot foremost. She will show by sample what she is capable of.

MobiIe and Bjrmipuham.

Mobile still insists that it is the chief city in the State The Register says: 'The citys rate of increase for the past ten years has been S6O people, or 72 per month. This gives us 216 for the three months since June, if not more. for we have observed no diminution of the brilliant and attrac- tive prospects of the city. Business is still going on and improvements show no fall ing off,"
 We see no way to settle the controversy except to refer it to the recount which will take place in 1910. The Register will then people month.
 The Union Springs Herald suggests, however another solution when it says:
 The Age-Herald persists in saying the city has nearer 100000. When 1t comes to the actual number of people who do bus- ness in the city and those who, if asked where they live, will reply, "In Birming- ham, the Age-Herald is correct. There are so many suburbs around the city which are such delightful places for residing that the majority of Birmingham people do not live in the city proper. This comparatively small official number does not keep Bir- mingham from being the first city, in the South, nor does it argue against it some day being the greatest city on the Ameri- can continet
 When the census bureau announces that the population of Greater Birmingham, sometimes called Jefferson County, is 140,- GOO the Register will probably be busy in discussing other subjects, and will not even refer to the 5000 in Greater Mobile, or Mobile County. As the real Mobile is to the real Birmingham is 140,00O to 65,00o. This is the inwardness of the problem, but the Age-Herald Is content to refer the entire subject to the recount of 1910, which will settle the dispute forever and for aye.

Galveston Must be Protected.

The appalling nature of the disaster at Galveston is increased by the fuller reports that are beginning to come in. No city in modern times at least has been stricken as Galveston is today, with one-third of its homes washed away and one-eighth of its people dead. The very nature of the situation appeals for the utmost help that can be furnished. Thousands of women and children must be removed to homes on the mainland, and the most energetic ef- forts made to the end that pestilence may not be added to destruction.
 great and rich country numbering at least 75, 900 people should aid in restorii. the city. They should aid those who have been deprived of homes and all that they held. For the city is to be rebuilt. A deep-water port at the mouth of the Trin- and Galveston is as good port as the coast in that quarter admits of. True, it is located on a low-lying sand spirit, but the engineering skill of the world can de- wise defense of 1t against even tidal or rather hurricane waves. A rich govern ment can afford to build defense against an eIeven-foot tide, for that seems to have been the extent of the recent rush of the seas It is matter of money only. It is not annot an impossible task. Engineers have met worse troubles anl conquered them. Galveston can be rendered secure, snd will be rebuilt. Let the ill-fated town take heart, for It has a great country be- lind it
 Houston is too far Inland to supplant Galveston as a deep water port, and the other ports of Texas are more or less ex- posed to unusual seas. Galveston is a necessity, and life and property in it must be rendered secure. The task is not d light one but big people are equal 10 big tasks, and they have one of that sort at Galveston.

CA IFORNIA'S JUBILEE m the Boston Herald.

II OAi tuC DoSlOA IlSTdiu
 This is a great week in California. She is celebrating with much pomp and circum- stance the fiftieth anniversary of her ad- mission into the Union. The festivities will continue for four days, and San Fran cisco will witness a series of military and naval parades that are expected to surpass in extent and significance anything hith- erto seen on the Pacific coast. It is great transformation that California has under gone since the pioneers sought that new land of promise in the forties. California has had forty-three Governors. The first was Gaspar de Portala, d Spaniard Nine other Governors under Spain ruled the State In 1922 the territory fell into Mexi- can hands, and had thirteen Governors of that nation. In 1Si9 the first American Governor held office, and he has been suc- ceeded by twenty-nine others, all of whom have preserved the record of the thrifty commonwealth untarnished.

THE NAVAL ARCH DOOMED om the Boston Herald.


 The naval arch is doomed All efforts to raise enough money by subscription to reconstruct it permanently in marble have failed pitiably. It Is destined to survive only in photographs. The protecting paint has worn off The exposed perishable sub- stance of the pediments and columns, the entablatures and cornices, the ornate capi- tals and the more or less artistic decora- tions, grows shabbier month by month. Already the cry goes up that it is an eye sore. The demand for it's removal becomes louder and more insistant. Fifth avenue is tired of it. Let it be destroyed. It is even worse than an eyesore. It is a reminder of the meanness of the metropolis-$200,o0 ,o0O, 900 for the Ramapo job, but no money for the naval arch A bloody race riot once a fort night; but no fine memorial to national heroes. Immensely valuable public fran chises given away to spectators; but no sacrifices to nourish the pride of youth in valoB and patriotism. It would be easier to raise in New York a million dollars to erect a memorial to either of the city's S supreme party boses than half that sum for any worldrenowned hero.

Mir. McKinIey's Philippine Policy.

The Presidents lengthy defense of his Philippine policy is as full of holes as that policy is artificial and insincere. He pre- been seeking the welfare alone of the peo- pie of those islands, whereas he has per- slstently sought and is now seeking to render them subjects of this country. All of his acts have the establishment of sov- ereignty in view. He is fighting for soy ereignty, keeping there a large army at an annual outlay of over $1O0OOo,OOO.
 We did not agree to pay s20tOO0 900 cold cash for the islands, or accept them at all until February Il, 1899, and yet so great was the haste of the administration in sezlng the islands it notified the forces of occupation in December, 1898, that the United States had succeeded the sover- eighty of Spain, when in fact nothing of the kind had occurred. In January. 1899, the President appointed commission to facilitate the extension of the authority of the United States throughout the. islands. General Otis was directed to seize and hold the islands that had not been transferred to the United States, and he did bounce upon several peaceful islands. And yet it was not until Febru- ary. 1899, that any right of occupation ex- isted in the United States. The war had been stopped fully six months, and no treaty rights were secured until Febru- ary, 1S99
 The President himself shows in his fet- ter of acceptance that his zeal had outrun his authority. Es Ess 90 eassr is eas- quering the Philippines that he exceeded the authority of the United States.
 But all Republicans hold at heart that the constitution should not be permitted

THE GROSS WE BEAR

By Margaret Manning. Sometimes we walk along life's road With heavy heart and saddened face; We long have borne a grievous load And nowhere see resting place. By day, by night, we fret and moan; While oft our crosses we compare With those of others. and our own, Thus measured, seem more than oul
 share.
 And then, perchance, we meet with some Beneath such burdens bending low, Life must be one long martyrdom,
 Each day tragic tale of wool We pause to look with tear-wet eyes. As they pass slowly from our sight, Upon our lips all murmur dies
 The load we bear seems almost light!
