Street Names Again.

A correspondent insists that letters as street names on Southside are better than numbers with the prefix South" Very well; then let letters be applied to streets all the way back to the crest of Red mountain. At present there is Tenth avenue, for example on each side, and this leads to confusion, which will be increased rather than lessened.
 But travellers and strangers in the city need at the corners the names of streets more than they need a reform in street nomenclature. Old residents understand the meaning of numbers, but newcomers do not, and this town is becoming too populous and too ire quently visited to do without street names. This reform is not great one, it is not one that would bankrupt the city, but it is one that would advance the interests of the city andd the con- venience of visitors. We cannot afford to assume much longer that all know the system of numbering of houses or the streets, when in fact they know neither, and are much puzzled in name less streets.

Grade Cr0SsInqS.

The Age-Herald is glad to hear that a satisfactory solution of the grade crossing problem will be presented next Wednesday night when the Board of Aldermen meet. There has not been at any time any evidence that the board which is fully representative and fully informed as to the risks and desires of the people, would fall short of it's full duty. It will render, the grade crossings in this town safe to life and limb.
 Mayor Drennen ana the Board of AL dermen can be trusted to do their full duty. They know the extent of their power, the dangers that exist in a score of places in the city, ana they know what public sentiment touching this subject unmistakably is. That is all they need know. They will now act.

Ion O. the Morning. iaayor.

Cheering words from Mayor Drennen elsewhere printed in this newspaper will be gladly received by the people of Birmingham, and will be or living ill- terest to all the great world that is interested in this best of all towns.
 The Mayor points out that some be expended in public improvements, mainly street paving, during the cur Birmingham will have the handsomest and best-appointed town house in the South.
 The Mayor asks in vain for the name of any other town in America with rev enues and municipal means like to our own which is planning public improve ments upon so broad and generous and enlightened a scale But, as he timely suggests, some new legislation is neces- sary to the full carrying out of the great
  amendments to existing law, minor in their character, but no less essential, must be made by the present General Assembly, which re-assembles some two weeks hence Assuredly there will be no man of Birmingham who will wish to attempt to stand between the city government and it's earnest work in the upbuilding, beautifying and cleansing Of this hustling home of teem- ing thousands of busy people.
 Nobody will care to deny congratula- tions to Mayor Drennen for his states manlike showing and defense of Bir- minghams municipal business which appeared in The Age-Herald of Friday and which is added to this morning. On the contrary, all good citizens will wish our energietic Mayor che top O tn morning, Sor!

Cuban Farmers Want a Modification of
 the Duties.

Havana, January 12.-The agricultural in- terests in Cuba are uniting in an effort to have the United States government make a modification of the duties on sugar and to- bacco. Meetings have been held in the province and the governor-general is being beseiged with petitions asking that some thing be done to put Cuba upon an equal footing with other nations with which the United States is making reciprocity treaties Coste, Secretary of Agriculture and Presi- dent of the Planters Association has writ ten a letter to the Governor-General calling attention to the promises made to the asso- citation by the secretary of war of a modi- fication of the duties and to the fact that in spite of these the reciprocity treaties have been entered into with other producing nations which place Cuba at a disadvantage. Cuba, Senor La Costa, say furnished $3S,- 0OO.00O of the imports of the United States ill 1898. The amount decreased, but reached $S5, 900 in 1S99-19OO. Cuba, he asserts, buys from the United States fifteen times more than San Domingo, sixteen times more than Nicaragua and thirty times more than San Salvador As for the reason urged for deny
 ing Cuba the same privilege are enjoyed by other nations that she has not the legal character necessary to establish reciprocity relations and that treaties are only con- tracts between nations, this condition is airt-ay !lliea' m great part as on May 3l the United States ordered the principal tariff enforced Senor La coste urges the aboshment of the export duty on tobacco unjust tax which prohibits the expor- tation of the lower grades of tobacco.

even receiving the recognition of women pure as heaven, they being unaware of the danger, worse than hell, incarnated in the well-dressed assassin of pure characters. ''He did that or he does this' 'They did so and so," are phrases current upon the lips of the hungry horde of slanderers who feed upon the regulations of pure women and good men. In good sooth, boiling oil is too good for d slanderer!
 There is not ore of you who shall escape the slanderer, my beloved. But you may avoid those whose principal occupation Is to create and retail scandals. You know them all and you know them to be unwor- thy of association with pure minds; and therefore you may avoid them in your daily life There are men and women who do not lie about other men and women-a great multitude of these who do not become mor- ally corrupt by falsely discussing the charged corruption of others. These are the salt of the earth.
 And so here is that welcome to you that ever smiles, my beloved. The wish for you is alway the benediction of the blessed. Be it so unto you, and with it faith and love and truth and that all-abundant joy of the soul which shall lift you above all the care full cark of lifes long course, and may you read in the flowers, in every gateway, and in every human face alway truest sweet est welcome, welcome, welcome!
 THE MURMCRER.
The age-herald., 1901-01-13

majority fraction of 12,41S. Now ma jority fraction is as good in all equity in Jefferson as 1t is in Conecuh or Wash ington or Lamar; in law under the pres ent constitution it is not. A man in Winston. for example, has the repre- sentation of about three men in Jeffer- son. If the people of Jefferson stood on the footing of the people of Winston, Jefferson would have fifteen representa- tives.
 There is but little use in purusing these inequalities The constitution was planned on unequal and unjust lines, and there is no help for such things at present, but if the delega -es of lief ferson County are wide awake they can bring the injustice down to point where two men in Jefferson are as good politically as one man elsewhere in the State. Three to one Is LOO much.

HE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN ALABAMA
Suffraqe in Alabama.

General Oates is rather indefinite in his statement of the qualifications that should go with suffrage. He says
 The suffrage clause in state constitution should not, in terms, exclude anyone from tn collective franchise on account of race, nor require an educational or property qualification, but intelligence and good character should be made the test. No felon, no man of notoriously bad character, no man who has not paid his poll tax, no man who has ever sold his own or bought the vote of another nor anyone who can not read intelligently, or understand when read to him.any section of the constitution, should be allowed to register as voter. And in order that no injustice be done by registration to any one legally entitled, an appeal should be given from such desision to the courts
 registration board does not appear; and if a man must understand any sec tion of the constitution that may be read to him he must be very good lawyer indeed-probably better one than lives in the State This is in fact the intel 1igence' clause of Mississippi, with character clause attached.
 In Massachusetts paupers and persons under guardianship, also persons who cannot read the State constitution Il English and write their respective names are excluded from the ballot. This presents all l-.e incentive to intel ligence that General Oates lays stress upon.

 Colonel Richard Malcolm Johnston tells Colquitt, who was judge by day, divine at night and a good deal of man all the time. While serving as a judge on the Chattahoochee circuit, Colquitt was turning one evening from church in com- pany with several members of the bar. Well, said he, my experience today has been varied l held court in the forenoon, in the interval for dinner made a political speech in the court house square, held court in the afternoon, after adjourning whipped a Whig who made insulting remarks in my presence about my noon speech and preach ed tonight

Trusts and Tariff in 1904.

One need not go out of his way three or four years in advance to pick the winner in Presidential race, but one can see with half an eye the issue that the race will turn on. That issue will be the McKinley-Dingley tariff and it's fruits, the trusts.
 The Republicans have plenty of DO. litical sense, and if they were free to apply that sense to the tariff and trusts they could readily prolong their power, but they are not free to act up to their inner consciences, because they are committed to wide variety of trusts and other tariff beneficiaries through zhe acceptance from them of huge canl- 3aign subscriptions. These men stand willing to subscribe again in 1904, but the condition is that the tariff, protect ing and promting as it does the trusts, must stand untouched
 The tariff will not therefore be amend ed or reformed by the Republicans, and the robberies under it and especially through the monopolies and combina- sions it has created will go on without mercy and without common decency. Vast fortunes will accumulate, and tramps will infest every road. By 1901 the great heart of the people will see that the bottom trouble is the tariff, because it protects the monopoiles from The rest of the world. It hands over to them the home country and they will exploit it knowing that day of reckon ing is coming. Trusts are harmless in England, because they cannot put up prices. They are deadly in this country for the opposite reason. Here they can crush competition, and do as pleases them best The crisis will come in 1901, when either the robber tariff will go down or popular rights and equal op- portunity will go down forever in this country.
