MORE FREAK LAWS.

At the risk of mourning censure from certain hypercritic cal-possibly hypocri- tical-contemporarias we call atten- tion to some more freak legislation, this time in New England and in the staid old State of Connecticut. There Is now before the General Assembly of that State, if it has not already be- come law, a proposition which requires that all textbooks used in the common schools must devote at least one-fifth of their space to alcohol and other narcotics. To teach temperance in gil things is good and proper, when the teaching is true, but when it is palpably false there should be no favor shown 1t. To show that little attention is paid to truth we copy the following brief assertions contained in one of the approved text books.
 r'Tobacco demoralizes. It makes a man careless about his hair; he lets his nails go unclean: his clothes are soiled and he is generally untidy."
 None are more likely to practice de- ception unscrupulously than those who use the weed"
 Alcohol is powerful poison"
 The m ajOrity of beer-drinkers die from dropsy."
 "No young man can use tobacco without injuring himself seriously"
 That last assertion. by the way. is printed in the book as the language

IT IS NOT HONEST.

MT. Bryan's contention that fusion is "an open and honest plan of CO., operation" will not strike any respon- sive chords in the breasts of those who prefer principle to policy. However open we may admit that 1t is we fail to see upon what its claim to honesty can be established. If the only object of a political party Is to succeed we can see why 1t should be willing to fuse with nay party or organization which will add strength, without re- gard to the principles involved, but If the object is to maintain and carry out certain well-defined political prin- clples we can see nothing to be gained or expected from absorbing the fal- lacies of others.
 Certainly the Democratic Party has no ground for congratulating itself over experimental fusionism. It has been but few years since the Popu- lists of the country formulated plat forms which were almost directly in opposition to what was and had been Democracy, as understood by the fathers and trusted leaders of that party. The two parties had scarcely anything in common and the line of demarkation was so well defined and plainly drawn that no one could fail to see it.
 How is 1t since the microbe of fusion found lodgment in our party? The Populist Party in most parts of the country has virtually ceased to exist, and the reasons given by their leaders for the disbandment is that the latter day Democratic Party has conceded all they demand and that there is no need of keeping up separate organizations. It is a common boast among Populists that their party has swallowed ours, and on this those of them who still claim to be Populists demand the right to control the policies and patronage of what is left of the Democratic Party.
 Fusion may be open, but honest? Ger tainly not.

used by Dr. Seaver of Yale, but when his attention is called to 1t he very emphatically declared that he would never think of making such a state- ment," and added that the facts are all against such an assertion, which shows that the compilers or authors of the textbooks have not hesitated to re- sort to forgery or falsehood.
 The sentences quoted are fair ex- amples of one of the books. and any unprejudiced person must see that the teaching of such falsehoods must have bad effect in any school. Not one of the statements quoted Is true, as all sensible people know, and while no teaching can be more commendable than that which tends to promote temperance in all things. 1t Is equally true that child had better be left in total ignorance than to be taught false hood.
 And in this connection 1t must not be forgotten that this same Legisla- ture of Connecticut has passed some stringent laws for the encouragement and development of the tobacco grow ing industry of the State. The State says in effect to the schools: The use of tobacco is. an unmitigated evil, but if you must use it always take the home grown article.

The Know-Nothing Party.
Coosada, Ala., Nav 13, 19O1


 Editor The Advertiser:
 in your editorial of May Sd on the American Party of 1S53-56, 1 think you have unjustly cersured it's members for intolerance and seCtarIanism. To show this injustice, we refer you to the State and National platforms of the party. Article 10 of the National platform reads thus: Opposition to any union between Church and State; no interfer- ence with religious faith, or worship, and no test oaths for office" Lan- guage cannot be made stronger than this against intolerance and sectarian- ism. The State platform is equally as strong with a clause added to protect the constitution. Article 7th-Entire relisious liberty-holding that all men have a right to worship God according to their own consciences, we will maln- tain a strict separation of Church and State. and oppose all higher law men whether Papal of Protestant; and all men who hold or acknowledge a right to violate the constitution, under any pretence of civil privileges or religious belief, or whose allegiance to the con- stitution Is subject to be absolVed by any foreign power on earth, are wholly unfit to hold office in this country.
 There was no unjust discrimination in the platform against foreigners They only wated the time limit for na- turalization extended, and paupers and criminals sent back to the countries from whence they came, and a uniform law to naturalize them, as that advo, cated by John C. Calhoun in his speech on the admission of the State of Michi- gan into the Union.
 After the death of the American par ty, the Democratic party adopted both of these American principles in our na- tional laws-and have gone much far ther in making laws against foreigners than ever was thought of by any one in the American Party, for they have stopped the immigration into this coun- try of the citizens of the largest nation on earth. The only thing wrong in the American party was its secrecy They abolished 1t in 1855, but 1t was

THE xNow-NorHINo PATTY.

We print in another place letter from a valued friend at Coosada which explains itself. The editorial to which he alludes was not intended to do any injustice to the Native American party, but only to state very brefiy some of its most prominent doctrines, and to give condensed account of it's rise and progress.
 Our correspondent admits that the secrecy and oath bound features of the Know Nothing organization were most objectionable, and were the primary cause of it's downfall. In addition to this and notwithstanding our friends opinion, 1t is patent to all who know anything of the history of that party that 1t was intended to fight one reli- gious denomination, and that its op- position was very thinly and imper- fectly yelled. As none of us in this office belong to that denomination we had no reason to go out of the way to defend 1t, and merely intended to deprecate any effort on the part of a political organization to labor or legis- late for or against any religious belief.
 That the American Party had some good things in its platform is true. and that some of the very best men in Ala bama belonged to 1t Is equally true, but the good features and good men in it could not sustain it's bad features be- fore the American people and it went down. as all political parties must which work by secret methods and teach intolerant doctrines. It is lead. and there are too many live issues be- fore us to warrant devoting time and space to dead ones.

4 me Advertiser publishes on this page 9xlxActs from three of our State ex- c6anges in order that our citizens may nee what is being said about Colonel Xy1ess proposition to change the place If hct1lng the Convention. None of thom enderse his views. yet 1t is very evi6snt that the lack of modern hotel &ccoznmodatiens Is a damper on the H Heuthusiasm of Montgomery's friends. Al is shown in another editorial, how ever, the hall of the House of Repre- se1atatives can be made just as comfor- tab,e as any meeting place in Alabama and our hotel accommodations are ample for an infinitely larger crowd than viii be drawn here by the con- vention. Tn many of them very desira- ble rooms can be had, while in some of our boarding houses every comfort and convenience can be had. Colonel Kyle has been attacked with a spell of nervousness from which he will re- cover as soon as he gets among his Montgomery friends and will soon admit that he cenjured up a ghost. but one which will not in any way inter- fere with his usefulness as a member of what is to be great historic con- Tention.

AGAINST THE SCIENTISTS.

The advocates of the germ theory of disease dissemination find themselves up against an antagonist who will make 1t warm for them. This is Mrs. Baker Eddy who scouts the idea that diseases are transmitted or communi- cated through microbes. and she 6 some herself as disputant. Being an earnest advocate of the Christian Science theory she of course repudiates or denies anything like disease. and naturally denies that any material cause can exist for disease. In other words, as disease is altogether a mental hallucination it naturally follows that living organisms cah have nothing to do with it.
 Here, we think, Is a chance for no end of disputation and argument. Ac- cording to her teachings there is really no such thing as disease or pain. We only imagine that we are sick. and if we exercise the proper degree of faith we must get we'll. This being so, it Is easy to be seen that microbes can have nothing to do with it. They are real, physical objects, according to science and scientists. and cannot mix up with our minds in such way as te affect our bodies. If there's no disease there can be no physical suffering. and if there's no physical disease there's s nothing for microbes to work on. This may look like arguing around in a circle, but it IS about the best that Mrs. Eddy's followers can do.

A TEMPEST IN A TEA POT.

The Birmingham Age-Herald, speak, ing of this papers criticism of Colonel Kyle's letter to the Birmingham Com- mercial Club. says: "The attack of The Advertiser upon Colonel Kyle per- sonally is in bad taste."
 It is a pity The Age-Herald is so stupid that it can't see the difference between criticism and personal abuse. The Advertiser has made no personal attack on Colonel Kyle. It's criticism was entirely parliamentary.
 In support of Colonel KyIe's letter The Age-Herald says:
 He has not constituted himself "a guardian" or ''the guardian" of anything. able manner he showed that the Mont gomery hotels are inadequate; that the hall of the House of Representatives is small and swelteringe that the audi tcrium of Montgomery has not been put In condition to accommodate the conven- ton; and he suggested that Birmingham take steps to relieve the members of the convention from prolonged stay In Montgomery's 'ill ventilated rooms" The tions that calls for personal abuse.
 Colonel Kyle has arraigned Mont- gomery in the public press as incapa- ble of handling the convention. He has come very near abusing the people of Montgomery, going so far as to in- dict them for not rendering the Audi torium. The Advertiser simply ridicul- ed his position. which is not personal abuse.
 1nasmuch as The Age-H Herald takes up the matter and endorses what Colonel Kyle has said, 1t requires further discussion. We will examine the allegations specifically.
 It has not been shown that Mont gomery's hotels are inadequate. They may not be modern or attractive, hut they have just as much room in them as those in Birmingham. They have handled legislative lobby crowds for years, and there is very little likeli- hood of the convention lobby exceed ing those. The personnel of the con- vention is too high, and the issues too broad, for the efficiency or expediency of a big lobby.
 The hall of the House of Represen- tatives for years accommodated State Conventions of various kinds, contain ing delegates up to the number of $50. If it has held those conventions. it can accommodate 155 delegates comfortably. It is the coolest interior on one of the highest spots in the city. There will be no more sweltering in it than in any hall in Birmingham's grimy atmos- phere.
 The Auditorium here is in a condition to accommodate the convention, If it is desired. It is the best built, best ventilated, most commodious hall of the kind in the State. If the conven- ton wants its use, there will be no trouble about getting it. It is virtual ly public institution.
 Al! of this discussion is, in our judg- ment, premoture and unnecessary. The Convention alone can decide whether 1t wants to hold its sessions elsewhere than in the legal place of assemblage, in the historic hall where other great conventions of great moment have met. We doubt whether any considerable number of the Convention will show any disposition to leave that hall. The probability is that Coloenl Kyles proposition IS merely a tempest in a tea-pot

 There isn't delegate elected to the Constitrtiopal Convention to meet in a short time. but knew just what ac- ccmmodations would be afforded them in Montgomery. There isn't a delegate wsso wzs conscripted to run for the position. Probably not one-half the delegates will even stop, at the hotels now In position to offer accommoda- tlons to them. Not one-half the mem- ITS of the Legislature stop at the hotels. but prefer the quiet of the home life that they can find in the private homes of the city. The desks will be renae we'd from the hall of the House of Representatives and that will give the 155 delegates a more comfortable posi- ton than the 100 members of the House have enjoyed.

Chicago is about to try something thas may cause trouble down the river. The intention is to use the hydrants liberaily so as to wash all the microbe- laden dust into the river. If that can be accomplished successfully it will of course be a good thing for Chicago. but if the dust of that city Is as plenti- fui as charged. and the belief of scientists that the dust is loaded with microbes is correct, will not all the people below that city be in danger from the operation? If they are to get ali Chicago's germs they are likely to be overloaded.
