none more than Mr.. Adams himself
who hoped to see all the friends at
the expiration of the next 70 years.
1t is a gracious act for the young peo-
pie occasionally to turn aside from
seeking their own interests and pleas
ures, thus to brighten the declining
years of one so justly heid in esteem
as is Mr.. Adams.

The Sttae Railroad Commission and representatives of the Shippers and Buy Association and the Freight and Trans portation Bureau will hold a conference, probably in Birmingham, July 10, at which a number of important questions will be considered.
 Sometime since the Shippers and Buy ers' Association entered into conference with the Railroad Commisston with re- gard to a joint meeting. s. F. King, received a letter from the Railroad Com mission suggesting July 10 as the date for the meeting. This date, probably. will be acceptable to all others concerned.
 One of the principal questions to be discussed Is that of more power for the Railroad Commission. and their election by the people, and to that end 1t Is prop able strong petition will be presented to the Constitutional CSonvent.
 The above notice appeared in yester- days Age-Herald and is calculated to create a mistaken impression as to the action of the Railroad Commission. The facts are as follows: Certain in- dividuals and firms in the city of Bir- mingham. including the Shippers & Buyers, Mutual Aid Association. on June the 2sth. 1901. filed in the office of the Railroad Commission. com plaint against the Alabama Car Ser vice Association. The hearing of this complaint was set for July 10th. 1901, in the office of the Railroad Commis- sion in this city. at which time the merits of this complaint will be gone into and decided according to the proof and merit. On that day they will give this complaint full and impartial hearing. and they know absolutely nothing about any conference to dis cuss anything other than the complaint referred to.

HE WOULD ACCEPT.

A great deal is being said of late by Mr. Bryan's supporters about what they are pleased to call his declaration that he will not again be a candidate for President. but he has not made any such declaration. His avowal that he is not now a candidate for the nomination means nothing. for it is not even an intimation that he will not announce himself when the proper time comes. Take this sentence in a recent article of his:
 The Democratic Party stands for def mite. positive principles, and unless mistake the sentiments of the masses, the voters will insist upon adhering to these principles. in spite of the threats of the reorganizers.
 Could he make plainer his conviction that what the country has come to know as "Bryanism" is to be and re- main the principles of Democracy? He does not say. or intimate that the par ty should reverse itself and try to get back to the only safe road to success with honor. What the platforms de- clared in 1896 and 1900 is, in his esti- nation. the definite. positive princi- ples" on which or by which the party must be governed.
 And if Bryanism is to be the party creed who so fitted and competent to expound 1t as Mir. Bryan himself? There is no other man in the Union who so thoroughly and completely rep resents his principles as he does. and none better entitled to be the candidate of a party adherring to those princi- ples. If the Convention of 1904 -re-en- acts the last two platforms 1t should by all means nominate, the same can- didate. and not do things by halves And MT. Bryan will be ready to accept the nomination

THE suFFRAaE REPoRT.

The report Of the Suffrage Cpmmit- tee of the Convention was carefully scanned on Sunday and yesterday by every intelligent man in Alabama, and by many another outside the State. It is very long document, but careful synopses in the newspapers greatly aided the eager reader.
 It is very probable that a large number of these intelligent readers were disappointed. The document, while laborious and painstaking. is not an original plan. It is virtually com bination of the Mississippi and Louis jana methods. It has the registration idea of the Mississippi law and the grandfather" idea of Louisiana. The Alabama proposition is not an advance in principle beyond its predecessors. It is ingenious, but not broad. compre- hensive but not simple. administrative but not fundamental
 Essentially 1t is the Mississippi law done over. The vital part of the re- port is the provision for the registra- | ton of all eligible voters during the year 1902. Certain classes can be reg istered without much discretion on the | part of the registrars. Other classes | can register, if they make certain proofs. Still others are absolutely shut
 out. This registered list is permanent
 ever after during the lives of those able | to get in under it's terms. After 1902
 other provisions. of an educational character, go into operation.
 | It will be seen that there is vast
 deal of administrative machinery in
 the measure. All depends on the reg
 istrars. who are appointed by the Gov
 ernor and two other State officers. Il | is, of course, the aim to make these
 registrars partisans and through them
 to register in 1902 practically all the
 white men and to exclude every negro
 possible.
 | The essence of the plan is directly
 antagonistic to the views The Adver.
 tiser has expressed frequently in the last few months. It has constantly said let the fundamental idea of a suf- frage plan he some principle, to a large extent self-operating. to as little degree as possible dependent on ad- ministrative machinery. It is true that in this scheme the machinery is tenn. porary. not permanent as in Missis- sippi. The evil is made as short-lived possible. and then principle is set tc | work. But in the meantime the bulk of the voters for the next twenty five years are determined.
 The Advertiser regrets exceedingly that this able Committee. after a months hard work has produced only an artistic compilation of what has been done by other States. This may be the best that can be done as an ex-
 pedient under all the existing condi- tions. but we doubt it. We prefer tc await the deliberations of the other 13t members of the Convention, and see ii
 something better can't be evolved. We
 cannot now work up any enthusiasm for this elaborate scheme.

 Alabama Christian Advooate-Broth- CT West. like most preachers when they make temporary irruptions into the po- litical field. has acted foolishly. He advised something in the party that he condemns in his ministerial capee- ity. The pledges of party are just as morally binding as the pledges or nis church membership, and yet he would not vote to ignore the latter under any consideration. Brother West. also act ed as chairman of the meeting ana ms rulings were said to outrival Reeds.
 Alabama Baptist-J. c. Lawrence cast the vote. but to say that 1t com mitted the sheet or it's patrons to the endorsement of such party disloyaity. would be a gross islander.

THE LEDGER,s DUTY.

The Birmingham Ledger has a grape vine connection with Montgomery, and over it has received the following sem sation: r-.
 The story comes that there has been a conference of several men at Montgom- cry and that some newspapers were rep resented and a little agreement made that the political organization of the Demo- crats is to be changed. That present ones put in charge. Then there will be . new set in control of Alabama, and their headquarters will be in New York.
 Just how all this is to be done the birds and breezes did not tell, and The Ledger cannot undertake to work 1t out during this hot weather.
 There is some foundation for the rumor beyond question, but 1t may be that it was enlarged after it was put on the grapevine.
 The Ledger ought not to undertake to print such grapevine matter, if it had not the energy to get at the bot tom facts. There is no need of stir ring up unnecessary excitement at this time when a new Constitution is about to be formed and submitted. The Ledger's rumor is attracting the com ment of the State press. Furthermore 8 member of the Convention. in his re- marks yesterday implied a reference to something of the same kind.
 If there is any foundation for The Ledger's grapevine. The Advertiser is not aware of it. If there has been any such conference as outlined, this news paper had nothing to do with 1t, nor was it notified of it. It may be possi- ble that there is some scheme on foot to galvanize the remains of Johnston ism. but if there has been any confer ence here to that end. it was kept SC close that our alert ears did not catch it. Perhaps some other newspaper in Montgomery can give light on this possibility.
 It is clear to us that The Ledger owes the public a duty in this matter If it is so sure of a foundation for it: rumors, 1t is under 8 manifest obliga tion to ferret out this reorganization scheme. to discover who is in it anC just what 1t is to be. We want tt know all about it, if 1t is a reality.

Will Stand for Decades.

Heflin New Era.
 No one expects "hasty unrestrained and unwise effort for a general change" if the constitutional limit Is fixed at 400 or 800 square miles, but as The Hot Blast says a majority of the people affected should decide the ques- tion. The present Constitutional Con- vention Is framing an organic law that, If ratified by the people, will stand for decades, and it should provide for the increase of population by reducing the minimum size of counties, and as The Hot Blast says, let the new counties be formed by legislative enactment.

In defense of the misrepresentation of Colonel Herbert's address here or Friday, which appeared in The Bir- mingham Age-Herald's correspondence The Evening Journal. from which the distortion was clipped, says:
 Morning papers are accustomed to ant approve the practice of their correspond ents in drawing on the evening papers The Advertisers Birmingham correspond ent is made up almost solely of reproduce tions from The News. an afternoon pa per in that city.
 True. but the reproductions in this case are boiled down by the managing editor of The News, and they are news accurate statements of facts. They do not contain editorial matter. nor re- ports of remarks not uttered by distinguished men.

Disagrees With Ex-Governor.

Luverne Journal.
 Governor Jones's statement that a Sheriff should lose his life in defense of his prisoner as we'll as railroad engineer for the safety of his passen- gers. is weak argument. All engineers will jump when they see death staring them in the face. and no sane Sheriff will give his life for a prisoner, he will jump too. Why Governor of Alabama once jumped from yellow fe- yer. The best way to prevent mob law Is to have speedy trials and less court machinery.

A number of other good reasons could be given for not nomi- hating him. but that he is as good as any. as 1t Is likely to be held by a majority of Democrats in 1904.
