KEEPING IT UP.

The Bessemer Workman falls into sarcastic vein and fears that the Bes- semer people will never recover from The Advertisers rebuke and adds:
 However Bessemer people are not dis couraged, and they propose to Keep up the light for their rights with probably an occasional change in the plans or the campaign, and BiI mingham the State at large and The Advertiser may draw such deductions from Bessemers vote on the Constitution as they choose with or with. out admiration.
 The Workman Is assured that 1t and those who followed its lead will find it much easier to recover from anything said by The Advertiser than they will to satisfy their own consciences. when they have had time to reflect, that they acted wisely or patriotically in fighting the new Constitution for the purely selfish reason that two or three members of the Convention had failed to do just what Bessemer wanted them to do. Some or Jeffersons delegates may have acted in had faith; that is not matter about which we care to argue, but to give that | as a reason for opposing Constitution which they admit is better than the old one strikes us as a weak excuse.
 We are somewhat curious to know how they propose to keep up the fight. The Advertiser does not think the Convention
 acted wisely in refusing to reduce the
 area of counties, but certainly that be- lief gave no excuse for fighting th; Con-
 stitution. The Bessemer people may con
 slider it heroic to wage war against Bir-
 minEham, but the lack of judgment in
 such a course will make itself apparent
 some day Don Quixote thought lighting windmills a very valiant proceeding but we have not read that he gained either profit or reputation by it. Which is more likely to be injured by the proposed fight, Bessemer or Birmingham?

Our Great Country.

New Orleans Picayune.
 If the United States were surrounded by a Chinese wall of separation from every part of the world, there is scarcely an article of use for which the people within the wall would suffer. because there Is in the entire list of articles of human use, whether 1t be raw or q manufactured product of the soil, of the forest of the mine or of the water, noth- ing that could not be procured at home in the greatest abundance and Of the best quality. This being the case, it must be plain that the free introduction of any foreign article would be almost certain to cause great damage if not utterly to ruin some domestic American industry, and any arrangement that would affect such injurious results in order to benefit the people of some foreign country would be a crime.
 The time was when the United States was chiefly producer of crude material. which had to be sent abroad to be man. ufactured. Now there are few, if any, articles of use which are not only not produced here in the crude form. but they are made into every fabric that can be desired It may be possible to ar range reciprocity in a few articles, but the greatest care and regard for home labor must be observed in any such busi- ness.

Fashion and Cruelty.

New York Post.
 It was a curious illustration of the unconscious cruelties of fashion that while a number of well-known gentle women were yesterday eXperssing their enthusiasm for the horse by their pres ence in Madison Square Garden, the agents of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals were removing from the mouths of the horses which had drawn these ladies to the horse show certain instruments of torture call ed "burrs." The burr is a pad, studded at the best with bristes, at the worst with metallic points which Is inserted be- 1 tween the cheek-piece and the tender | part of a horses mouth. The constant
 pressure of the burr makes the horse l fretful, and this fretfulness gives the 1 necessary style which a carriage horse should show. Now, of course, the dozen people of importance from whose horses these ingeniously cruel instruments had been taken were probably ignorant that such thing existed just as many American residents in Paris are ignorant of the horrors of the servants quarters in the sixieme etage." But the incident shows that we do well to follow our vanities to their remoter effects. If we are too indolent for this not very agreed ble task, 1t is fortunate that there are societies like the IS. P. c. A." to bring us to book. One may imagine, as re- suit of yesterdays incident. that a num- ber of ladies will learn that horses wear bits, and that a few will see to it that the bits of their horses be not made instruments of torture.

THE REAL QUESTION
Is the Securing of Honesty in Elections.

Richmond (Va.) Times.
 Referring to the fact that the bill to disfranchise negro voters was recently defeated in the Georgia House of Dele gates by vote of l15 to 11, The Augusta Chronicle says that apart from any question of ethics or equity Georgia stands in the attitude of having abso- lutely no demand for the law. The es- tablishment of the white primary in Georgia" adds our contemporary, "ts the happiest solution of the problem. All candidates run subject to the result of the primary, so that the nominees in the June primary are the only candidates to go before the October elections, and every voter is at liberty to vote for these candidates"
 The negro problem in Virginia. poli- tically speaking, is nothing like so bad as it has been represented to be. but the trickery in elections Is necessary to pre- vent negro rule and so those who are in favor of honest elections have deter mined that the only way to get them is to eliminate the negro from our politics. It was for this that the Constitutional Convention was called, and this is the purpose of every suffrage plan that has been introduced. It is well enough to keep that fact prominently in view. II is not negro domination that we fear. it is not negro domination that we are trying to guard against. The great pur- pose which this great body of men has in view is to deliver the Commonwealth from the corrupt practices which negro franchise has brought upon us.

THE GREEK RIOTS
And What the Proposed Translation
 of the Bible Means.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

r. l., in St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
 'The riots in Athens over the proposed
 translation of the Bible into modern
 Greek mean that if the policy this indi-
 cates is carried out. the existing dynasty will probably be driven out or kept in
 power by the intervention of other Euro pean governments.
 The question involved is the most vital in the life of modern Greece. It is the
 question of keeping unbroken the Creek
 tradition against the Schlavonic. The Bible has already been trans lated into modern Greek" with the great est care. The modern Greek or Romanic
 use in Greece represents the highest scholarship of the country. IL can be understood with equal ease by anyone who understands either the modern lan- guage or the popular language of tile first and second centuries in which the New Testament has come down to us. II adopts the grammatical forms of the Ro- manic or modern languages. and at the
 same time preserves as far as possible th'
 root form and infexions Of the old Ian guage.
 The talk of 'translating" 1t Into moderr
 Greek means the rejection of the Greek
 forms to such an extent that the Schla-
 vouic forms which have crept into the
 dialects of the dneducated classes will
 be adopted instead of the Greek. The population of Greece Is largely mXet with SchlaVonic tribes who came into the
 country during the middle ages and in such d mixture of their root words that if the Bible in common use as the stand ard of the language, adopts these words instead of words with Greek roots. the Greek tradition will be lost in the Rus sian.

IT IS GOOD POLICY
Good Dirt Roads are Feeders to the
 Railroads.

Richmond (Va) Times.
 The North Alabama Good Roads Asso- ciation was organized at Birmingham Thursday as the result of the visit of the Southern Railway Company's good roads train. which has been making tour through the South. That is an in- teresting announcement. This train has done much toward crystalizing public sentiment and directing the attention of the people to the necessity of making better roads. More than that, 1t has given the people object-lesSons in road making, and we trust that many good roads associations will be organized here and there as result of the railroad s enterprise.
 Why has the Southern Railway Com pany gone to this expense? railroad company is not a philanthropic organi- zation. Railroads are run In this day to make moneY for the stockholders. but the railroad managers know that what ever tends to build up the country through which their lines pass. tends to make business for the railroads. The Southern Railway people know that ev- cry good country road which leads up to one of the Southern's stations improves the farms along its route and so becomes a feeder to the railroad. Tn short. these people know that good roads mean pros- perity and it is to the interest of the railroad company to make its patrons as prosperous as possible. In view of these facts the motive of the Southern Railwa ay management in sending out this eXpen- sive train is not hard to find.

xonp PACE .pREIuprcE.

In a recent issue of The Kansas City l Journal we find this: -
 Eating at the same table with negroes
 is one thing; denying them the piainest | nri iIeres of the laws of the land Is an- other. About the first there is pardon 1 able. at I, ast an inevitable difference of opinion. Regarding the second there can | be no dispute, and Attorney General Hor- ace Speed of Oklahoma will be commend I ed by all law-abiding citizens for his firm stand in behalf of the negroes who are being diiven from their claims. It Is stated that more than 100 negroes have | been forced to flee from their holdings, and complaints are being lofg daily de-
 manding protection against this unlawtui intimidation. The Attorn y General an- nounces that he will canc,l the entry of every man who seeks to eject a negro from his homestead.
 The Advertiser sees no need of discus sing the question of race equality at the dinner table because, when it comes down to practice, there is little difference of opinion or of action among the white people of all sections of the Union. The other matter referred to by The Journal is quite different and shows what man. ner of treatment is accorded the colored
 man outside the old slave States. True, Oklahoma is not a Northern State or | Territory, but its white population is largely made up of citizens of Northern and Western States who have never had the close acquaintance with the negroes that the Southern people have and conse- quently are dominated by the Northern prejudice against the man of color. The "offense'' which these negroes tr i Oklahoma have committed Is that they being citizens of the United States. have l secured, or are endeavoring to secure homesteads nthe public lands which be- long to the United States and which | any citizen of the United States has an equal right with any other citizen to pur- chase and settle on. The humble colored
 man has just the same right to home- l stead and take possession of his quarter l section or less of the public lands that l any white man has. It is plain that the
 only objection to the negroes is founded ] on color and there is no reason given
 or intimated for the hostility against
 them except that they are negroes. In
 the words of another colored man these negroes can say:
 The very head and front of my offending
 Hath this extent; no more.
 That it is the duty of the government
 officials to protect these negroes in their legal rights is beyond doubt. but we are
 not so sure that the course indicated pS
 the Attorney General will be effectual
 If he cancels the entries of the offending
 white men and they refuse to vacate theil homesteads there would be another com
 plication Besides some of the offending
 white men doubtless have complete ti
 ties to their homes and on them thu
 threat would have no effect, but we agre'
 with The Journal that the government
 owes 1t to itself as we'll as to all its citi
 zeus. regardless of color, to protect al
 alike" This we presume 1t will do Il Oklahoma, however much it may clasl
 with Northern race prejudice.

Paris, Nov. 2e-A tragedy characteris- ticall Parision was committed in the heart of Paris today. At the corner of the Boulevard des Capucines and the Place de .rOpera a husband shot his faithless wife and her lover in full view of hundreds of people.
 The opera square was filled with prom enaders at lunch time, when cap droVe across the square followed by man running. A policeman regulating trafnc stopped the cab In front of the Cafe de la Paix. enabling the pursuer to overtake it, when the man drew a revolver, thrust 1t through window of the vehicle and fired twice, killing the woman who was inside. The man in the cab, the woman s lover, opened the other door and tried 10 flee but the husband sprang after him and blew out his brains before the spec tators could interfere. Then the husband approached the policeman, handed him the weapon and surrendered.
