DOESN'T HOVE TO.

The Editor of The Montgomery Adver- tiser ts ready to bid farewell to this vain world He says it is utterly impossible to fight fate. that when he learned that rnosquitocs and malaria were companions he was in despair. but now that fieas have been added to the list. he will sur render. We knew there was something wrong with The Advertiser man, but we had no idea he scratched his siiins for ideas instead of his head.-Bessemer Workman.
 "rhe Advertiser man doesn't have to scratch for Ideas. either on the shins or the head. They come spontaneously. instantaneously and simultaneously. In platoons, battalions. regiments and brig ades. and 1t keeps him so busy asserting and placing them that he has no time to watch for heas. Besides, the genus puIex has no more sense of fairness than an anarchist has, and will bite 6 sleeping man as quickly as one with all his senses about him. Added to this is the sneak ing methods they employ. A mosquito sounds his horn and plays lullaby or requiem when he approaches, but 0 flea sneaks on you without noticc and bites before you have time to slap him. We protest against ieas-we really do.

MEETING OF THE
 CABINET HELD

Washington. Sept. 17.--Presldent Roose. vet at o'clock today at the residence of Commander CowIes convened his first cabinet meeting held in Wasi1inktorl The Fresident asked the members of Mfr. Me- hlnleye cabinet to retain their respec. tive portfolios throughout his term and anitounced that his administration would follow the policy outlined by President Mckinley in his Buffalo speech, The fresident expressed the hope and expec- tation that every member would serve throughout his term, for, he said, he tendered the appointments as If he had just been elected to the presidency and was forming an original cabinet.
 The President said, however, there was one difference between present tender and that of an original offer, namely, under the present circumstances they were not at liberty to decline. Upon be- ing asked by member if regignations should be formally presented in the usual manner. the President answered that his action at this meeting had pre- cluded the necessity of presenting reaig- notions. The discussion turned upon the policy of the administration and Mr. roosevelt announced that he regarded tne speech Of the late President at the was shot ae outlining the policies of his own administration.
 It cannot be learned at this time whether or not all the members will he willing to serve the full term.

ALSO IN ERROR.

The rsowndss News has some very
 timely criticisms of a recent article Dy a Northern writer purporting to describe the cotton plant and It's uses and pecu-
 liarities. and which article, like most of those written by New Englanders, falls into some absurd errors. In one instance, though, The News is almost as far from the facts as the man 1t criticises. The latter asserted that our mills and fac- tories have not by any means driven out of use the spinning wheels and hand looms Oh which the clothes of many Of the country people have been made" To this The News replies that the mills ot
 the East drove the hand looms out of business, practically. q few years after
 Whitney invented the cotton gin, and adds:
 A home-spun and hand-loom wove suit is as much a curiosity in Alabama as
 growing cotton stalk would be in yer.
 mont, and such an industry. here Is about aa common as celery or cranberry rais-
 ing. Born and raised here in the center of the Black and Cotton Belt or Ala
 bama, we are over 90 years old ana nave
 never seen an old1asnsonec ssl naan ana that
 when c child of or years
 What The News man may or may not
 see in Lowndes County is not a fair crit
 erion of what may be seen in other sec tions. If he will so among the "hill-oil- Hes of North Alaksma and nningle witsi
 them at their homes he will find the
 spinning wheel, the reel and the hand
 loom as much a part of the household
 furniture as the chairs and tables, and
 he will see many an independent small
 farmer wearing full suits of homemade cioth both winter and summer. And 1t need not surprise him much to find wo-
 men dressed in cloth which was carded, spun, dyed and woven by their own hands. of course the loom and wheel are not so common as they were fifty years , ago, but on the other hand they are not so uncommon among the rural inhabi-
 sants of the mountain region of Alabama
 as to be considered objects of curiosity. There Is one point, however. in which the criticism of The News Is just and l apri, rriste. It says:
 Yt, in an a0om panying illvstration the Northern writer represents an Alabama family styiishly dressed and otherwise appearing up-to- date, engaged Tn coru- ing spinning and weaving by hand foot power, and a young lady, who so far as dress, style snd general makeup IS con cerned, looks as though she had just stepped of of Dexter Avenue or ieit
 converition, Con on Is twiriing the spinning wheel in the back yard.
 That is all true. The women and girls
 who spin and weave do not think it nec- essary. even If they are able to do SO to dress as If they were attending
 party or ball in the city. any more than the man at the blow or with the nos thinks it necessary to wear a standing ao,tar snd eravat mA Nve freduertiy see them pictured To tell the truth, many of those who write and draw abou' Southern scenes and chsractera have nothing to go on but their riotous imag- matters, and could about as well write about the inhabitants of the North poiai
 regions as they csn about the South.

oPENTNa THE CoosA.

Alabama has never had more faithful representative in Congress than Hon. J. U. Burnett of Gadsden. He has from the day he entered upon his duties been un- tiring in his efforts to properly place be- fore Congress the claims of the Coosa River, and his good work has borne good fruit. There is to be a systematic effort all along the line to get an ap- propriation for the river commensurate uitr its importance, and on account ot his knowledge of the subject. no man will be able to do more in that direction than NIT. Burnett All the Alabama rep resentatives will work heartily for the improvement of the river, but as MT. Burnett Is peculiarly the representative of the district in which the Cocsa is nav igable naturally he will be the most in- terested. It 10 worthy of nl the efrort that can be expended.
