Bad Fourth of July Example.

'The delegates In the constitutional convention had perfect right to vote themselves no pay for the Fourth of July. but there are some of them who are much mistaken if they suppose the people are to be impressed by such chaff as that kind of self-denial would be- said a man who doesn't dodge the tax collector.
 Every official, high or low. in the United States Is entitled to a holiday with pay on the Fourth of July, and it Is a bad and hurtful example some of the delegates in the convention at Montgom- cry would set, that men who work for daily wages shall forfeit their pay if they take the holiday. The example is inn moral, in that it suggests that American citizens must make money sacrifice if they are to properly observe the birth day of their nation.
 Tt Is the duty and should be the privi- lege of every citizen to observe the Fourth of July by ceasng from labor and enjoy ing himself as best he lawfully may. Yet delegates in the constitutional con- vention of Alabama would set the exam pie for all employers of labor, skilled or unskilled, to deduct days pay from every toiler who claims his moral right to take the Fourth as a holiday. That is not only unjust, but 1t Is preposterous. These delegates in the constitutional con- vention suggest to the employers of the thousands of working women, men and boys in Jefferson county, who are today enjoying a holiday or half-holiday that these workers be not paid for the little time lost The report of Wednesday mornings session of the convention reads:
 MT. Sentell of Crenshaw offered a resolution to adjourn for the Fourth of July Mir, Reese of Dallas opposed ad- journing. He said out of the 155 mem- bers probably not five had observed. the last Fourth of July. That the reason given to adjourn was for the members to spend the day with their families at home He ventured to say that last Fourth of July not one-tenth of the delegates had thought of observing the day with their families, although they may have been within three blocks of them.
 [" 'Dr. Cunningham moved to amend the resolution by providing that no per diem be paid delegates for that day. This was adopted by vote of 105 to 21.
 MT Sentelrs resolution to adjourn was then defeated by vote of S5 to Al
 'That is to say, 1O5 out of 126 delegates voting favored the abstract proposition to observe the Fourth without pay; but when it came to the question of actually ob- serving the day S5 out of 126 voted no.
 'As the Wednesday wore on. some delegates changed their minds, and in the end. MT O'Neal of Lauderdale then in- troduced a resolution to adjourn for July Fourth. This was carried by a vote of 79 to 49.'
 Nearly all men very properly take the Fourth as holiday, the chief exceptions being the worlengmen of the saloons the railroads and the newspapers. These have to work.
 Without the saloons there wouldn't be much Fourth for some folk; without the railroads many men couldn't get this par

THE GRANDFATHER CLAUSE

elections. There is a minority report on the franchise ordinance signed by General Oates, Frank White and other strong men.
 From the Evergreen Courant.
 The minority report of the committee is in opposition to one clause-the grand father clause-which will be stricken out as it is deemed to be in conflict with the federal constitution, which all the members are sworn to support, and which says that no citizen shall be deprived of his privilege to vote Ion account of race, color or previous condition of servtude" Aside from this we think there will be little change, if any, in the plan submit ted.
 The minority makes 1t clear that the clause is contrary to the federal consti- tuition. It might have gone further-and perhaps, out of respect for the majority of the committee was prevented from do- ing so-and have characterized this sub- division as ridiculously unworthy the in- telligence of the representative citizenship of the State. one that will be reflection upon it. if finally adopted. The full force of the objections urged against it's adop- ton at glance. may not be seen.

Rain at the Country Club.

Early yesterday afternoon while rain less Birmingham was sweltering in heat there was a downoour of rain in North Birmingham that amounted to almost a cloudburst
 At the Country Club rain fell for an hour. accompanied by high wind which blew the water almost entirely across the now open ballroom. Near the trolley car station in front of the club a lake was formed an acre or two in extent. In the lower edge of the park, alongside the troll ley line, similar lake two or three feet deep formed. Going out from the city, no signs of rain were observable until the first trolley station in North Birmingham was reached The creek running through that suburb was swollen and the water was yellow with mud.

JOSEPH COOK CHARACTERIZED.

From the Buffalo Commercial.
 The late Flavius Josephus Cook was long on faith and short on love. That is to say, he lacked sweetness, generosity, sincerity-the qualities that win mems lasting confidence in a preacher. He car ried an audience of non-thinkers by storm, but the scholars distrusted him, and when the people began to see through his gal lery plays his hold upons the public loosened For ten years he was the suc- cessful Boanerges of the Monday Pop" lecture platform. The laundering cham pion of orthodoxy. he rode down science and discussed dogmatically, in ''preludes," all things in heaven and earth, once a week with advantage to his pocket and fame As Barrett Wendell put 1t: "He said things with bang" That was a lifelong characteristic. Walking through the college yard with the present writer one day, Cook suddenly stopped, seized his astonished companion by the arm. glared at him and cried: Do you see that blade of grass?

From the Mobile Register.
 The Register has its objection to the clause; first, that 1t Is probably uncon- stitutional and may result in cutting down of our representation in Congress; and second, that it is not popular with the people, as it calls upon the uneducat- ed to declare their deficiency. and upon the educated to endorse a course that they believe Is contrary to the genius of the government. We think that straight out poll tax and educational qualifica- tion would meet with the most approval from our own people; and that good policy would dictate a franchise clause framed upon that simple basis.
 From the Marion County News.
 The franchise committee has reported, and the report embraces all the objec- tionable features of the grand-daddy clause, the registrar proposition, etc. It is claimed that the object of the conven- ton was to purify the ballot. Let the provision be put in the constitution that three men as registrars shall have the power to say who shall vote in each coun- ty, and we will have corrupt and parti- san elections sure enough.
