EDUCATION AT WEST POINT.

From the New York Christian Advocate.
 The proof is now beyond all doubt that for a long time West Point might have adver- tised itself truthfully as a school for instruc- tion in brutality, the extirpaton of natural feeling, and that is best in Christian civili- zation. Cadet Carpenter was put to bed suffering from muscular convulsions, and was also hysterical and delirious. Mac Arthur, the son of General MacArthur had convulsions, and it took quite a while to bring him around; he was in bed "whimper- ing hysterieally." Men accustomed to such things are not likely to be shocked at loot ing, or to have the slightest interest in pre- serving the morals of the common soldier who is to be committed to their care. We hope the institution will be compelled to maintain discipline before the investigations are forgotten.

Policy of Kinq Edward.

The accession of King Edward very naturally led to series of silly stories as to his policy and power. Perhaps the silllest related to the relations between the King and Lord Salisbury, which were said to be so strained that the aged premier would not go to Osborne House when the Queen was dying, and that he would soon resign because of the Kings dislike. All these stories are mere imaginings of an active brain. The ministry was represented at Osborne House, and the King and the premier are on excellent terms.
 Besides, if they were not, the resigna- tion of Lord Salisbury would be ex- tremely improbable. He is premier be- cause the electors have chosen him. He

Enormous Freiqht Traffic.

'The pressure of freight traffic on the Birmingham division of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad is so extraordinarily enormous that every available locomotive and car have been brought into constant service, and locomotives and engineers have been borrowed from other divisions" said well known engineer last night
 Several months ago this traffic had reached about the limit of the capaity of these divisions, and the superintendent be- gan to try to make preparations to meet a still further increase which threatened. And the traffic continued to grow, and grew faster than all possible preparations could be made Work on the engines in the shops were hurried night and day, and likewise repairs to old cars and work on new ones were rushed But that wasn't enough. Other divisions of the Louisville and Nashville were called upon for help, but they were all rushed too, and couldn't do very much to assist the Birmingham divisions, but did do much good.
 Recently there have been about sixteen additional engines added to the working forces of the divisions and about twenty engineers. Seven or eight engineers who had been laid off indefinitely have been re-en- gagged; and every man who has an engine has all the work he can stand up to and is making big money Some of the men occasionally put in double time on freight trains. Yet the traffic goes on increas- ingpi

Third Parties Disappearing.

Small parties are dropping out, and the people are seeking the one or the other of the two great parties. This movement has been going on ever since 1896, and it promises to be complete be- fore 1904.
 The Populists have almost without exception joined the Democratic party. The Idaho Senators and l.-e new Colo rado Senator were Populists, but they wish now to be classed as Democrats. It is not too much to say that the Popu- list party has ceased to exist, and that no more will be heard of it as a factor in national politics.
 As for the Silver Republicans. some like the Senators from Nevada have gone into the Republican party, but most of them following Senator Towne and Senator Teller have become Dem ocrats.
 The tariff and it's resultant trusts will be the issues of 1904, ana there Is no oc- casion for third" parties under such is. sues, for the lines as to them are dis tinctly drawn by the two great parties, the one standing for bounties, tariffs, privileges and trusts, while the other is pledged to tariff reform, the overthrow of privilege, and the destruction of the trusts. The eccentric partles no longer serve an useful purpose, and they are passing away to make room .or a fate ful battle involving the nature and well fare of the Republic between the two historic parties of the country

THE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Mrs. Nations Crusade.

Because the saloons in Kansas have no legal standing, because that State retains a prohibition law on it's statute book, affords no justification for sucn outlawry as Mrs. Nation breaches and practices. If wrongful acts are to be righted in that manner society would be a delusion. Institutional order would be humbug. Individuals acting in an individual capacity only are not author ized to suppress evil doers or violators of the law, and if they attempt such an act they are guilty themselves in the eyes of the law They must make good any damage they do if they have any property. They are at any rate guilty of malicious mischief, which is punish able by imprisonment.
 The general rule is this, no man must attempt as an individual to correct in person and by force a violation of the law. He must seek the aid of the courts, which are always open. Mrs. Nations course is simply outlawry. she consid- CTS herself above the law, or at least the court, which is the creature of the law itself. If she can do this with i'm punity calling to her aid others of her usurp the place of society.
 Mrs. Nations genera contention in Kansas is sound enough, but her rem edy is absolutely indefensible. If the courts and authorities of the State will not act, it is her duty to apepal to the public sentiment of the State. She has a right to agitate liquor reform until the COWS come home, but she has no right in law or in sense to take her hatchet and be the law itself No one has. No one has right to set up a bit of anarchy in a state of organized so ciety.
 Kansas is, and always has been, full of eccentric persons, but none or them have exceeded Mrs. Nation in fanatic ism and downright defiance of all law and reason. She has appealed to the au- thorities; let her bury her hatchet and take the stump. That is the real and true and etfectual method. Kansas should not indeed carry prohibition on her statute books and let every town be of the wide-open sort

John Marshall and After.

Under the title of "1S67," meant to be chronological, Julius Randolph sends hither these ringing lines Concerning the raising of the bronze statue to Chief Justice Mar shall,a and in view of the coming celebra- tion of John Marshall Day they are of more than passing interest," We are glad to see you, John Marshall, my
 boy,
 So fresh from the chisel of Rogersi Go take your stand on the monument there Along with the other old codgers; With Washington, Jefferson, Henry ana
 such,
 Who sinned with great transgression, Ln their old fashioned notions of Freedom
 and Right
 And their hatred of wrong and oppression! You come rather late to your pedestal John' Sooner you should have been here, The volume you hold is no longer the law, And this, is no longer Virginia. The old Marshall law you expounded of yore Is not at all to the purpose: And the martial-law of the new Brigadier Is stronger than habeas corpus So keep you the volume shut with care For the days of the law are over, And it needs all your brass to be holding
 1t there
 With Justice inscribed on the cover. Could life awaken the limb of bronze, And blaze in the burnish eye, What would you do with your moment or
 life
 Ye men of the days gone by? Would Jefferson tear up the scroll he holds That time has proven lie? And Marshall shut the volume of law, And lay 1t down with a sigh? Would Mason roll up the Bill of Rights, From nation unworthy to scan 1t? And Henry dash down the eloquent sword And clang 1t against the granite? And Washington seated in massy strength On the charger that paws the air, Could he see his sons in their deep disgrace, Would he ride so proudly there? He would get him down from this big brass
 horse,
 And cover his face at our shame: For the land of his birth is now District

is not the choice of any crowned head. He was elected premier just as plainly and as directly as MT. Mckinley was elected President, and he can be dis placed by the electors only. The new King would not think of removing him or of showing any displeasure towards him, even if he harbored any such feel ings.
 The truth is, King Edward comes to the throne pledged to be constitu- tional ruler in the strictest sense of the word. He is, too, man of great tact and of rare discretion. No one knows to- day whether he is at heart a liberal or a tory. He has held the balance even, and now that he is King and is in the full blaze of publicity, he will assuredly do nothing to create friction or trouble. He promised to walk in the footsteps of the Good Queen, and if he does that none of the indiscreet things expected of him will occur. The chances are that he will be very influential as constitu- tional ruler, and that his reign will be happy, peaceful and prosperous.
