GOVERNOR STANLEY
 ON WOMAN SUFFRAGE

From the New York Evening Sun.
 At the request of Prof Fernand Des- champs of the University of Public In- struotion of Belgium, Governor Stanley has written a comprehensive statement about the operation of woman suffrage in Kansas. The Governor begins by saying that 1t causes no family jars. Wives generally vote as their husbands do, but husbands do not attempt to influence their wives. Few or no dis sensions occur about the way the chill dren coming of age shall vote. Women seldom neglect their domestic duties to attend meetings and canvass for candidates. Husbands do not protest against the interest of their wives In politics. No particular class of women go to the polls or keep away from them. The housewife and the scrubwoman are more or less faithful in performing their political duties. Women vote for the common welfare and not for the special interest of their own sex. There is no tendency among women to unite for political action. Pure motives influence them, and religion is no more a determin- ing factor with them than with men. On social questions, however, they give heed to the advice of their cIergymen. Temperance legislation always appeals to them. They take but little interest in labor agitation. They are opposed to gambling in all forms, and vote for it's suppression whenever the opportunity offers They are no more carried away by emotion than men are.
 This is certainly a very glowing account of the workings of woman suffrage In the Sunfiower State, and yet we conclude that it reflects the situation in outline. Governor Stanley deals tact fully with politics in the home. In New York, where the suffrage is denied to women, political differences in the family are not uncommon, the wife being or a contrary persuasion to her husband by  CUTS in the Kentucky metropolis next week. No city in America sends out travelling men who are more energetic or popular than those of Louisville!

No Railroad for BeIlefonte.

Another historic town of North Ala bama that wouldn't have railroad was ReIlefonte, in olden days the county seat of Jackson. This town or the oio arls- tocracy is not mentioned in Owens Pick ett,n but it was the seat of wealth and social and political influence fifty years ago.
 Beliefonte or what is left Of it. is on a spacious and elevated plateau by the Tennessee river. It was settled some three quarters of century ago by fami- lies of the slave-owning southern aristoc- racv. and amongst its former residents was the late General Leroy Pope Walker first secretary of war in the cabinet of Jefferson Davis, President of the Con- federate states. General Walker was pres

Wet Weather in Cotton Fields.

The prevailing wet weather is con- fined to the eastern or central portion of the cotton belt, and the wettest State in it is undoubtedly Alabama. Georgia and the Carolinas are damper than they desire to be, and the plant is getting in them rank growth, but the weight of the rains has fallen upon Alabama.
 In Mississippi, western Tennessee, Louisiana and Arkansas there has been just about enough moisture, and in all of these States the crop looks better than 1t did at the opening of the pres ent month.
 Texas needs rain. Every part of it is too dry. The central, northern and southwestern sections are particularly dry, and the crop in that great State will not be up to normal. Picking is going on in every part of the State, and if the plant is to be benefited at all by rains they must fall very soon.
 With too mucn moisture in the east ern portion and too little in the west ern portion the crop outlook is not very promising. A crop as large as that of the present cotton year Is about all that can now be reasonably expected. | tn oil n State the crop will be seriously in jured. The plant will shed when dry weather comes, and it is daily getting growth that should go into fruit. At this writing the weather is still unset led, and the soil and air are full of moisture. A week more of such | weather will change for the worse the most promising State crop in the cot ton belt.
 While it must be admitted" says the New Orleans Picayune, that the usual uncertainty as to the outcome of the crop prevails, there is a leaning towards the sort crop view. Of course, short crop means high prices, and high prices are extremely tempting, particularly to those farmers who have good crops to market. There is there fore. no danger that damage reports will be held back, although not so much | will he said as to the condition of things in the more favored districts"

"JEs' COMMON OLD MISERY"

From the Kansas City Star.
 The boys name Is Rufus, and he was busily engaged in polishing the doctors shoes while he was being shaved. As was his custom, the doctor said: How are you feeling, Rufus?"
 1T ain't much. Kinder poohly, thank you, doctah," answered the boy.
 What's the matter?"
 Paralysis
 "What?"
 Paralysis
 Had the doctor not been SO well acquains- ed with the negro race he might have al- lowed himself to show astonishment. As 1t was, he determined to see what would result from further inquiries. "where's your paralysis?" he asked kindly.
 Rufus1was drawfng'a rag swiftly across | his left shoe siss "In the right hip, doctah." he answered.
 'It's probably rheumatism" suggested the physician. 79'-'
 NO, indeed-it's paralysis. I reckon I knows rheumatism and I knows paraly- sis. This is suttenly paralysis"
 The doctor drew a good-sized pin from the lapel of his coat.
 "Well Rufus," he said seriously, there is only one way to tell Come here I'm going to jab this pin in your hip. If 1t hurts then you have rheumatism If you don't feel it, then you are right. and you have paralysis"
 The boy did not rise, but drew the rag thoughtfully across the shoe Finally he said:
 "Doctah, reckon you mus know moro about them things than I do. I know 1t ain't nothin' but jes' common ole misery.

Unique Honor to Judge Coleman.

Said a man last night:
 q was greatly interested in this state ment from the constitutional convention appearing in The Age-Herald's special report this morning;
 MT. Parker of Fillmore introduced resolution expressing appreciation or the services of Judge Thos. w. Coleman or Greene the nestor of the convention. A motion to suspend the rules to put this resolution on its passage was aoopteo and the resolution passed
 No convention ever did a more graceful thing than thatl Judge Coleman IS un- questionably the master-mind of the con vention. All Alabamians cheerfully ac- knowledge that. although he, in his con- cepfion of his duty, rubbed many of us the wrong way. Therein lies the gracl- ousness of the just honor paid him oy the convention. In the course of his prolong- ed and extraordinary labors, wnicn mentally and physically must have been trying to man seven and sixty years old, he antagonized the views of many delegates-in some instances maype majority of the convention-yet he did IL so chivalrously and so courteously that in the end the entire convention gave him vote of thanks.
 That action of the convention, in such a singular case, Is probably unique In civic or merely partisan affairs in this country. It is a parallel case to that of the reelection of MT. Gully. now and for many years the speaker of the British House of Commons. MT. Gully was a Gladstonian radical member of parlia- ment, and when Mir Gladstone for the last time came into power with parlia- mentary majority of only forty and odd he proposed MT. Gully as speaker to sue ceed MT. Peel, who had been raised to the peerage. The Tories, under the leadership of MT. Balfour, bitterly resented the can- didature which MT. Gladstone in his masterfulness had forced upon Mir. Gully a rank radical partisan. inexperienced as a presiding officer. But MT. Gladstone's willing majority obeyed his dictation, and MT. Gully was elected speaker.
 "The Gladstonians weren't long in power. There was a new election, and more than two-thirds of the new house elected were Tories. So fair and so just had been MT. Gully as speaker that MT. Balfour. as the Tory master of the house, himself moved MT. Gully's reelection. It was unanimously done, and today MT. Gully. the Gladstonian radical, Is the speaker of the House of Commons with its hundred and fifty Tory majority in a total strength of 670 members
 Those of us Alabamians who felt it our duty to most stoutly oppose the stuff rage plan in the new constitution main ly framed and chiefly supported by Judge Coleman, are readiest in doffing our caps and applauding the convention for it's unanimous and graceful action in voting its thanks to the powerful statesman from Greene!

ident of the Alabama constitutional con- vention of 1875. 1t is of interest Just now to again note.
 When the Memphis and Charleston through line. the first in Alabama, was projected in the 30s the line of prelimi- nary survey passed through Bellefonte. That aroused the indignant resentment of that beautiful Arcadian community. No noisy iniauitous railroad with tramps and mosquitoes was desired by those people, and they actually subscribed several thou sand dollars to induce the company to run the line three miles away, thereby taking action similar to that taken by the people of Mooresville, Limestone County, and Tuskegee. in Macon. as referred to by the Montgomery Advertiser.
 As has been stated. Tuskegee Is now on railroad. but proud Bellefonte and Mooresville. with their glory long de- parted, stIll hear the shriek of the loco motive from afar.
 Yet some of the great planters and slave-owners of that day materially as- sisted with their slaves in building what we know as the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, and the Alabama Great South ern as well. notable amongst these anna teur railroad builders being John T. Lewis, a wealthy gentleman of Courtland, Lawrence County, who with his slaves built four miles of track. Mir. Lewis was one of the most powerful men of the old Alabama aristocracy He has been con- fused with the family of the late Cover nor David P. Lewis, Madison man, but that is erroneous.
 MT. Lewis, by the way, was the mater nal grandfather of Hon. William L. Clay of Huntsville and Mr. J. Withers Clay Of Birmingham.
 The first president of the Memphis and Charleston was James Donegan of Hunts ville and to this day there is very heavy investment of Huntsville capital in the line. The late Gabriel Jordan of Mont gomery was the chief engineer of the Memphis and Charleston and surveyed the line. He afterwards was president of the Mobile and Montgomery Railroad, and that road was built largely through his efforts. Work on 1t was begun about 1855. The Montgomery Advertiser Is in the best position to give the exact date, and also MT. Jordans precise relations with that railroad. MT. Jordan was related by marriage to the historic Clays of Madi- son.
