Black Belt Politics Auain.

The Banner, newspaper published Nashville, is still harping upon the new daughter of Alabama, and there is danger indeed it will accumulate so much voltage it will declare the new constitution of Alabama abolished. Let us cherish the hope. however, it will not proceed to such extremity. but will be amenable to reason, thus enabling the people of this State to maintain a constitution that was rati- fled by 26,S79 majority until it can be amended or another substituted. An American State without written con- stitution would be indeed novelty, and we trust the Banner will not act rashly or hastily or summarily.
 Call off the dogs of war and let us reason together Why do you assail so bitterly the Black Belt in general and Lowndes County in particular? What's Hecuba to you or you to Hecuba, that you should weep for her? And yet you weep more for our Black Hecuba than you do for your own sleeping beauty on the banks of the Cumberland. This is, to say the least, 6 little odd. Whence comes your knowledge which outruns those to the manner born?
 You hold to the theory that the theory that the Black Belt will not accept white electorate-that Lowndes in particular prefers negro voters. The white counties. you add, Yhave no reason to trust Black Belt political honesty, and under this con stitution the Black Belt can register IS many negroes as it pleases and go on counting their votes without regard to the way they were cast, as has been the practice in that region for many years"
 You have caught to the Conservative Democratic lingo beautifully. This is the standard tune of the leaders of that. party. They are judging the Black Belt of the present day by the Black Belt of their own day. But the Black Belt of twenty years ago has been abolished, or soon win be. and.

cRlTiclsE HAYS SPEECH.
Berlin Papers Comment Favorably on
 American Diplomacy.

Berlin, November 21.-The evening pa- pers print long summaries of Secretary Hays speech at the banquet of the New York Chamber of Commerce last Tuesday night
 The Berliner Neueste Nachrichten says
 This utteraneee of the American statesman deserves the applause of those nations which, in a similar spirit, seek satisfaction for their need of expansion in peaceful competition in the world 8 markets. It Is to be hoped that the speech will have the effect in the United States of removing whatever grounds still remain for anti-German sentiments, which are fostered in London"
 The Belinger Tageblatt points out that the Monroe Doctrine was less sharply emphasized by Secretary Hay than 1t has been by Senator Lodge, and it regards the speakers references to reciprocity treaties as being all in the traditional spirit of protection to domestic indus try and as oracular.

Fair Selma of Cotton, Wells ana oaks.
 Selma is more truly prosperous than ever before, for not only is it's inherent wealth greatly increased. but tts oesei- opment of local industries and its cer'ala expansion of Hade, combine to assure it's commercial supremacy in the BiaeR Belt westward from Montgomery salo Carlisle Jones, one of the wealthiest anu most senterprising of Selmians.
 Mir. Jones combines in his name the history of great deal of the wealth or Selma and the forces which made the wealth permanent as to local and general Alabama welfare His father, the late Dr. Jones, and his namesake. MT. Car iisle. constituting the firm of Carlisle Jones & Co.,, were chief builders of the railroad line of the Black Belt ''boom" days from Selma to Greensboro, called in its inception the Selma and New Orleans Railroad, now a part of the Southern Railways great, far-reachtng and wiseiy-condueted system. Carlisle, Jones & Co. owned that railroad until its sale a few years ago to what is now huoNn dS The southern system oA oOulii- ern railroads. This famous firm was and remains cotton warehousemen. and it Is now interested, it is said. in every cotton warehouse in Selma, and it is concerned in other cotton warehouses, particularly in the Canebraixe, and is the main force in many enterprises in that district.
 Yes; Selma not only remains the cen tral mart of our distriet-the city of an hundred artesian wells and a million oaks, many churches and the best of good schoois-but it Is going rapidly ahead in material development and as- sured prosperity. Mr. Jones said.
 The cotton season Is late, it is true, but the lateness means merely delay. Selma will receive this season about a hundred thousand bales of cotton, a large percentage of which Is. fortunately for Selma, wagon trade the best of all trade for the local centre concerned, Selma is progressive. prosperous and happy; and Selma, the real queen Of the wide Alabama river. the shore of which 1t crowns, is more prosperous and more happy, and rejoiees in its hundred artes- ian wells and its million oaks more, than ever did fair Selma beforep'

Cincinnati, November 21-William Vim cent West, alias John yerreil of Tun- bridge Wells, Eng, who surrendered last night to the police at Indianapolis, was first known in this city about five years ago when he met and married a Miss Matson of Gloves, niece of former Judge Matson.
 His wife found him mysterious man. He told her conflicting stories and re- ceived mail under several different names. He often mysteriously disappeared, but always returned with money. He is charged here with embedding a small sum from a tea store at which he had secured employment It appears he only used the retired home at Gloves as a refuge, and when his wife discovered his wrong doing and refused him further shelter he disappeared.

 Woman's prudishness is all a matter of age.
 There is chafity for sin but none for sinners
 It takes mind tailors to make a man, but one woman can break him.
 When you hedr girl over twenty-five say she would like to see a man who could manage her. 1t Is generally a sign that she would.
 When woman has a secret to keep she seems to think the only way she can do it is to get somebody right away to help her.
